139 You have a daughter, now

28 years ago

Outside one of the rooms that looked VIP, with security guards standing outside it, a small girl wearing a peach barbie knee-length frock was sitting on one of the sofas.

She had no idea what was going inside that particular room except the fact her aunt was there.

She even did not what that room was.

How could she? She was only one and a half years old.

She kept playing with her barbie doll, oblivious to the running doctors, her parents, uncle Shiv and the weeping grandma.

She was tired of staying there. She wanted to go home and enjoy the party, which had somehow stopped.

But, none of them told her the reason and, she hated it.

"Avni bcche?" she heard her mom calling while coming to her and, she smiled.

Finally, someone knew she was alone here.

It had been more than an hour now.

"Mumma...." she answered when she saw Mrs Shakti engulfing her in her arms.
