5 Chapter 5

Khuda Kare Wo Ab Jaha Bhi Rehe

Kush Rahe Unke Hisse Ke Aaso

Bhi Meri Aakho Se Gire

"Aarya, Rahul, Shanti, WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU THREE", a furious voice filled the house. Aarya was sleeping peacefully dreaming about Manisha, but when he suddenly heard this noise he fell off his bed and landed on the chilly floor. On the other hand Rahul and Shanti were sleeping coseley in each other's arms, and when they heard this voice their eyes shot wide open. When the three of them came downstairs, they were greeted by an angry Pallavi. Pallavi is their old college friend and Aarya's ex girlfriend. As soon as Pallavi saw Aarya, she ran and hugged him so tight. This made Aarya feel very uncomfortable. After hugging Aarya, she went and greeted Rahul and Shanti with a side hug. After doing all the catching up, Shanti told Aarya to take Pallavi up to Manisha's room because the guest room is not ready yet. Aarya was shocked hearing this because Manisha's room was the only thing which made him feel as if she is still with him. On the other hand Pallavi was evilly smiling in her mind because she will be staying next to his bedroom and her idea of seducing him will be very easy. But little did Pallavi know that her ideas are going to be flopped. When Aarya and Pallavi reached Manisha's room and Pallavi was about to enter, Aarya stopped her and told her that she will be staying in his room and he will be staying in Manisha's room. Pallavi was a little suspicious but later she agreed because she can still execute her plan. Later that night after having dinner, Aarya left early to bed because he wanted to try calling the orphanage and ask about how Manisha is doing. But when he went to bed, Aarya changed his mind due to Manisha's reaction in the orphanage.

Orphanage

In the orphanage, Manisha had just come to her room after finishing her day. She took a shower and changed into night clothes before heading to bed. When she went to get her night dress, on the left door of the dresser there was her Aarya corner. The Aarya corner contained many pictures of Aarya. Some were solo pictures and others were pictures of Aarya, Rahul, and Shanti together. Manisha started talking to Aarya's picture and started saying how she misses him and how she loves him so much. Manisha recollected how she reacted badly with Aarya when he came to meet her. She thought of calling Aarya and apologizing to him. When she took her phone and was about to call Aarya, she felt the kick of her baby for the first time. For a mother this is a very special time. As soon as she felt the kick, she started getting tears of joy. She was so happy and she wanted to share happy news with someone so she made a video call to Aarya. The phone kept ringing and after three rings, Aarya finally picked up the call. When Aarya saw Manisha's face, he got very emotional and tears were about to come but he controlled himself.

Aarya: Hi Manisha how are you? (Aarya had his video paused and his voice was shivering)

Manisha: Aarya please on your video. (She also started having tears)

Aarya: Please wait two minutes. I will come back and call you on video call.

(Aarya quickly went to the washroom and washed his face. On the other side Manisha did the same thing. After washing Aarya called back Manisha and she picked up on the first call.)

Aarya: Wow you picked in one call itself. Were you waiting with the phone in your hand?

Manisha: Yeah Aarya!! I wanted to share very important news with you.

Aarya: Kya huya Manisha? Sab thik haina? Koi problem to ni haina?

Manisha: Sab thik hai Aarya fikar mat karo! Yeh baat kushi ki hai dhuk ki ni hai.

Aarya: Jaldi batao mujhe darr lagra hai. (Aarya was very impatient and nervous)

Manisha: Baby ne kick mari... ( Manisha was having tears while saying this).

As soon as Aarya heard this news, he was so happy like he just won the world. Aarya wished that he was with Manisha right now and experiencing all this with her. But to his sad reality Manisha doesn't want him near her. After asking about the baby's and her well being Aarya ended the call and this was surprising for Manisha because Aarya always liked to be around and talk to her. With a heavy heart both of them said good night to each other, kept their phones on the side table and was just laying on the bed staring at the ceiling. After a few minutes Manisha slept due to tiredness and Aarya was still awake thinking about Manisha and her baby. Aarya lost track of the time and finally fell asleep. The next morning Aarya was feeling someone waking him up and his unconscious was saying it was Manisha so he held that hand and pulled the person on top of him and hugged them. The hands belonged to none other than Pallavi. Shanti had sent Pallavi to wake up Aarya and when he pulled her into a hug she was so happy thinking he had the same feelings for her. Little did she know that Aarya was thinking she was his love Manisha. Pallavi went close to his ears and whispered "good morning sleepy head... wake up it's late". Even though he was in a deep sleep, Aarya knew that Manisha was not this open with him yet to wake him up like this. When he opened his eyes, Aarya was shocked to find that Pallavi was in his arms, not Manisha. He suddenly let go of Pallavi and said he was sorry. To avoid any awkward conversation, Aarya went straight to his room to get his things so that he could freshen up. On the other hand Pallavi just ran downstairs while smiling like a fool. When Shanti saw her smile so much, she asked Pallavi "why are you smiling so much"? Instead of answering Pallavi just changed the topic because she didn't want Shanti to know about her real reason for coming to their house.
