Thank you very much dear Reena for the Sid Rhea edits.
Rhea stared at Abhi:We have not seen your papa.But still we can’t consider someone else as our papa.Don’t try to be our father.
Abhi:Rhea!
Rhea:You are an outsider and so stay out of our family.Don’t come between us and our mother.
Pragya lost her control.Her tears rolled down.
Pragya:Stop calling him an outsider.He has the right to come between us and love me.Because he is none other than my husband and your father.
Prachi and Rhea were shocked.They were even numb.
Rhea:What?Are you out of your senses?
Pragya:No.I am in my senses and I am telling you the truth.I will show you the proof if you can’t believe it.
Pragya went to her room and took the album she had hidden.She showed their wedding photograph to them.
Prachi and Rhea were shocked.
Prachi:How did this happen?Kaise hua?
Rhea:Why did you both get separated?
Pragya:I left him because of my foolishness.
Pragya showed another photograph where they were standing with a little girl.
Prachi:Who is this?
Abhi:This is your eldest sister Kiara.
Pragya:Our daughter…
Praci and Rhea were shocked.
Abhi:Once I took Kiara to a mall.I went to the washroom keeping her near the washroom.But when I returned she was missing.Due to my carelessness Kiara was lost.
Pragya:The police also failed to find Kiara.I was so angry with Abhi that I blamed him and in that anger I cut off all the ties with him and left the place with you both.
Pragya cried bitterly.Rhea and Prachi became sad.
Abhi:I didn’t stop Pragya from going as I was guilty.I did not even stop Pragya from separating you both from me.Because I failed to protect Kiara as a father.So I felt that you both would be safer with Pragya.But I realized my foolishness later.After a year,the police found out Kiara and I was shocked to know that she was kidnapped by my ex fiancee Tanu.She kidnapped Kiara as I broke off the engagement with her to marry my love Pragya.Tanu got arrested and I got our Kiara back.I searched for Pragya.I was desperate to tell her happily that our Kiara is back.But I could not find her.That time I realized that I did a big blunder by letting Pragya leave my life.I should have consoled her and convinced her to stay back.When I joined your college,I met you both.Knowing the names itself I realized that you both were my daughters.I also came to know from you both that Pragya is still single.Purposefully I told you that I need a new house to stay in the hope of staying in your outhouse.So that I can see my Pragya again.
Pragya:Thus we both met.But after talking to Abhi,I was confused.So I went to meet him in your absence.
Flash back….
Abhi was happy to see Pragya.
Abhi:I knew that you will come to meet me.You missed me.Right?I also missed you a lot.
Pragya looked at him emotionally.
Pragya:I came here not because I miss you but I want an answer for my question.
Abhi:Question?
Pragya:Yes.If you didn’t get married again,how do you have a daughter now?
Abhi:Pragya,I am sure that you remember Kiara every moment.The daughter I mentioned is none other than Kiara.
Pragya was stunned.
Pragya:What?Kiara….?
Abhi:Yes.The police found her.She was kidnapped by Tanu.
Pragya:How dare she?I will not spare her.
Abhi:Don’t worry.She already got punishment.
Pragya was relieved.
Abhi:I tried to search you a lot after getting back Kiara.But…
Pragya’s eyes became wet.
Pragya:It is my fault.I left you alone without even thinking of the pain you were undergoing.Anger had blinded my eyes.If I had not left you,we both would have been living with our 3 daughters now.You lost 2 daughters and I lost one daughter.Atleast you are getting love from Prachi and Rhea as students.But I am completely detached from Kiara because of my blunder.I am sorry Abhi..
Abhi became emotional:No Pragya. It’s my fault too that I did not stop you from leaving.
He wiped her tears.
Abhi:Let us forget the past Pragya.
Pragya:Tell me more about Kiara.
Abhi:She is just like you.Chashmish.
Pragya and Abhi giggled.
Abhi:She is sweet like you.She got a loving husband named Abir.Since he loves her so much he calls her Mishti.Our Kiara is his Mishti…sweetheart.
Pragya:Mishti….?That’s so sweet.I want to see her.
Abhi:I will make you meet Kiara…but on her birthday as a surprise gift.
Pragya smiled.
Present….

Kiara and Pragya wept.Abir smiled emotionally.
Pragya:Happy birthday Kiara.
She kissed her forehead.
Abir:How did you both meet?
Kiara:Yes…say ..
Abhi told them everything.Kiara was surprised.
Kiara:I had no hope that mumma will come back.So I wished you will get a life partner and I hoped that the mother of your students will be that person.But I never thought that she will be my own mumma.
Abhi smiled and Pragya’s eyes became teary.
Kiara:Why did you leave us and go mumma?Papa was shattered and living in pain all these years.I lost you and my sisters too.I am sad that I because of me you both got separated.Sometimes I feel guilty.
Pragya wept:Sorry beta.I did a big mistake. You are not at fault.
Abhi:Leave this guys.Now we have united.
Everyone smiled.
Kiara:This was the best birthday gift till now…my mumma…
She hugged Abhi and Pragya together.Abir smiled.
Kiara:I can’t wait to see my little sisters.
Pragya:There is a problem Kiara.We have not told anything to them.They still think that Abhi and I met only when they introduced us to each other.
Kiara:Why are you hiding it from them?
Abhi:If we tell them the truth they may not be able to digest it fast.But we are planning to tell them soon.Then we all will be together as a family.
They smiled.
Pragya looked at Abir:I heard that you changed our daughter’s name.

Teri Meri, Meri Teri Prem Kahani Hai Mushqil
Do Lafzoon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Ek Ladka Ek Ladki Ki Yeh Kahani Hai Nayi
Do Lafzoon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Teri Meri, Meri Teri Prem Kahani Hai Mushqil
Do Lafzon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Ek Dooje Se Huye Juda Jab Ek Dooje Ke Liye Bane
Teri Meri, Meri Teri Prem Kahani Hai Mushqil
Do Lafzon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Aaa…
Tumse Dil Jo Lagaya To Jahaan Maine Paaya
Kabhi Socha Na Tha Yun Meelon Door Hoga Saaya
Kyun Khuda Tune Mujhe Aisa Khwaab Dikhaya
Jab Haqiqat Mein Usey Todna Tha
Aa….
Ek Dooje Se Huye Judaa, Jab Ek Dooje Ke Liye Bane
Teri Meri, Meri Teri Prem Kahani Hai Mushqil
Do Lafzon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Teri Meri Baaton Ka Har Lamha
Sab Se Anjaana, Do Lafzoon Mein Yeh
Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Har Ehsaas Mein Tu Hai
Har Ik Yaad Mein Tera Afsaana
Do Lafzon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Aaaa…
Sara Din Bit Jaaye, Saari Raat Jagaye
Bas Khayal Tumhara Lamha Lamha Tadpaye
Yeh Tadap Keh Rahi Hai Mit Jaaye Faasle
Yeh Tere Mere Darmayaan Hai Jo Saare
Ek Dooje Se Huye Juda Jab Ek Dooje Ke Liye Bane
Teri Meri Baaton Ka Har Lamha Sab Se Anjaana
Do Lafzon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Har Ehsaas Mein Tu Hai
Har Ek Yaad Mein Tera Afsaana
Do Lafzon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye
Teri Meri, Meri Teri Prem Kahani Hai Mushqil
Do Lafzoon Mein Yeh Bayaan Na Ho Paaye(Bodyguard).
