Pushing open the huge iron gate and crossing the vast lawn he reached the main door of the house and rang the calling bell a few times.
After few minutes the door got opened revealing the person behind it.
.
.
Haseena couldn't believe her eyes neither could Anubhav.Both of them were shell shocked seeing each other.Unknowingly her eyes brimmed with tears.Anubhav was gazing at her blankly confused if the weather and the silent ambience of the place is playing some mind games with him.A thunder bolt brought them out of their trance.

"Anubhav!...andar Aiyye please."She welcomed him inside.

"Haseena aap!..." Anubhav didn't know what to say further.

"Aap toh pure bheeg gaye hain..humare saath aiye."

She took him upstairs to her room.He noticed a girl of around 5 sleeping on the bed.Haseena handed him a towel and asked him to change.

"Guest room k bathroom mein thoda problem hain toh aap yaha fresh ho jaiye..arey par apke kapde toh bag k sath bheeg gaye honge."She said worried.

"Chinta mat kijiye yeh bag waterproof hain.."
.
.
After sometime Anubhav came out of bathroom wearing a pair of track pant and tee.At the same time Haseena too entered the room with a cup of tea and a plate of Paneer fritters.

"Adrak Tulsi daal kar banayi hain yeh chai pii lijiye zukham nahi hoga phir aur saath mein yeh pakode bhi khaiye."she said handing him the cup of tea and placing the another plate on the bed side table.

"Aap chai pijiye hum tabtak apke liye dinner lagate hain."she said moving towards the door.

"Nahi Haseena hum bohot zyada thak gaye hain kuch khaya nahi jayega..yeh chai pakode hi thik hain."

Anubhav took a sip of tea and closed his eyes in utter satisfaction..indeed this is what he needed the most right now.He sat on the bed as there was no couch in the room.

"Kaisi hain aap Haseena?Humein laga nahi tha ki humlog phir kabhi milenge."Anubhav said.

"Hum ekdum badhiya hain..shayad nahi hote agar 15 mahine pahele aapse nahi mile hote.Shukriya Anubhav aap hi ki wajah se hum apni zindagi ki ek nayi shurwat kar paye hain."she said genuinely.

"Humari wajah se?"he asked a bit confused.

"Haa apki wajah se..kal subha sab batayenge,abhi aap bohot thake hue lag rahe hain toh so jaiyega jaldi."she said.

"Nahi Haseena..hum bas baarish rukne Tak ka intezaar kar rahe hain phir hum nikal jayenge..kal hume ek zaroori kaam bhi hain."

"Barish ruk bhi gayi toh bhi aap nahi Jaa payenge...iss ilaake mein 10 baje k baad koi vehicle available nahi hota aur upar se aaj baarish Hui hain.Aiyye humare saath hum aapko guest room mein lekar chalte hain." Anubhav didn't argue any further because he knew that she was right.

An ear piercing lightening strike occured causing the little girl's sleep to break.

"Haseena Didi..."she started crying,scared due to the loud noise.

"Arey Jiya daro nahi baccha hum yahi hain.."Haseena said taking her in her arms.

"Haseena yeh bacchi kon hain?koi Rishtedar hain aapki?"Anubhav questioned.

"Rishtedar toh nahi par phir bhi bohot gahera rishta hain humara isse."She replied smiling."kal fursat se sab batayenge aapko.Aiyye abb humare sath..Jiya yaha baitho hum inko guest room mein chhodkar aate hain."She said placing Jiya on bed.

"Nahi hume dar lagta hain humein bhi le chalo"Jiya said in a crying voice, extending her hands towards Haseena.
Haseena sighed and picked her up and went outside the room followed by Anubhav.

Next Morning,

Anubhav's sleep broke due to some noise.He came out of his room to find 5-6 kids running around the hall and an middle aged lady shouting on them to have their breakfast.
"Arey baccho baitho khane k liye..hey bhagwan main thak gayi chillate chillate Haseena k ilawa kisiki nahi sunte yeh log."the lady complained hitting her palm in her head once.

"Baccho kyun tang kar rahe ho Neelam aunty ko.. breakfast karne baitho,thodi mein sab aajayenge."Haseena said coming downstairs along with Jiya.
She saw Anubhav and went towards him.
"Anubhav aap yaha kyun khade hain Aiyye breakfast karne baithiye."

"Haseena itne saare bacche yaha...sab aapke saath rahete hain?"

"Haan..hum sab ek saath isi ghar mein rahete hain."She replied.Shock and confusion was evident on Anubhav's face.

"Kahan kho gaye..Aiyye breakfast kar lijiye."She asked snapping fingers before him.

"Hum brush karke aate hain."
.
.
After breakfast was done Anubhav spoke "Haseena ab hume ijazat dijiye..abhi hum nikalte hain ek psychotherapy program mein jana hain aur hum already der ho chuki hain."

"Psychotherapy program,kahan?"she asked...

"Address toh hume yaad nahi par Lucknow mein hi hain.. Creative Souls naam ka ek page hain wahi se join Kiya humne...pata hain uss program k founder ka naam bhi Haseena Malik hain."As he finished talking he saw her smiling.

"Kya hua aap muskura kyun Rahi hain?"

"Aapko Creative Souls art therapy program mein jana hain na(he nodded)..toh Aiyye humare saath."She said and walked towards the main door.Confused,Anubhav followed her.They were now standing infront of the main gate,she pointed towards the name plate where the Address was written,he now noticed the huge board of 'Littls Hearts Home' too.

"Yeh address toh same hain(looking at his mobile once and then at the name plate)...matlab woh program yaha hone wala hain?"

"Jii.."
.
.
Anuseena were now sitting on a bench in the lawn and Haseena was telling him about her orphanage and the program.

"Aapki baaton se humne ek nayi urja mili...humne thaan liya apne halat ko hum khud par haavi nahi hone denge toh humne dance k zariye apne frustrations, anxieties ko bahar nikaalna shuru kiya..wahi se iss program ka idea hume aaya...humara purana dost Vihaan usne bhi humara saath diya aur partnership mein humne yeh program chalu kiya..phir ek Orphanage mein Jiya mili toh humne samjha ki sirf bade hi nahi bacche bhi kahi baar aisi mushkil haalat se guzarte hain jahan unhe kisi zariye ki zaroorat hoti hain apne man k bhaav ko express karne k liye..uske baad hi humne yeh orphange kholne ka faisla kiya...yeh ghar humari Ammi ka puchtaini ghar hain..shaher k bhid bhad se thoda dur hain toh hume laga yahi jagah perfect hogi."

"Aur aapki job..chhodiya aapne?"

"Haa 3mahine pahele chhod dii...dono manage karna mushkil hain and honestly financially hume uss job ki zaroorat nahi aur humari Khushi bhi yaha inn baccho k bich hi hain."she said with a smile.
"Waise ek baat samajh nahi aaya Anubhav,aap toh khud itne bade Psychologist hain phir aapne yeh program kyun join Kiya?"she expressed her curiosity.

"Din bhar itne saare logo ki itni saari baatein sunte hain aur unhe apne andar rakhte hain ab inn sabke bich mein khudko hi naa kho baithe bas uski k liye yeh program join Kiya."He said with a smile.

"Hum bohot khush hain Anubhav ki aapne humara program join Kiya aur usse bhi zyada khush iss liye hain kyun ki hum aapse phir mil paye.Aapse milkar hume realise hua ki insaaniyat naam ki cheez aaj bhi zinda hain,duniya ka har insaan humare chacha chachi ya Nikhil ki tarha nahi hota kuch log hote hain apki tarha jo nirswarth bhaav se logo ki madat karte hain aur jin par aap aankh bandh karke bharosa kar sakte ho."

"Ek baat kahein Haseena?(she hummed)..hume aap pe bohot garv hain..aapne jis tarah se khudko sambhala hain aur inn baccho k baare mein socha hain,sach mein iske liye bohot himmat chahiye..I'm proud of you."

"Sirf aapki wajah se Anubhav"She said and hugged him tightly whispering a Thank You in his ear.Anubhav responded by tightening his grip on her a little more,as if assuring her that he will always be there with her.
