It was getting dark as the sun set letting the moon take over the night to do its job for rest of the day... City was lighted as vehicles move in the busy roads as people call it a day at work and move to go back to their houses where their families was waiting for them... Just like another working day, from the moment the sun peep out to the world noises haven't stop for a second... Peoples and animals
moving, vehicles carrying peoples and goods around the City shows how every single person was trying to fulfilled their responsibilities towards their families...

Black car stop in front of a Mansion, which was design with marbles... White and cream color combination was used, a guy came out from the car as he move to the steps which leads to the entrance of the house... He was holding a bag as he peeped inside from the main door looking around the house which seems empty... As it was evening time and soon darkness would be around the world, lights were on with the big chandelier hang in the middle of the hall was lighten...

Everything was neatly arrange around the house as if there don't live a single soul... Guy move inside still his eyes move here and there to catch a glimpse of something or maybe someone... As he move further inside, he heard television was on and cartoon channel was on with a small figure sitting in front of it enjoying the cartoon as well the drink which it was holding in its small hands...

Smile spread on the guy face seeing the sight, he stop as he watch the little one enjoying tom and jerry cartoon with so much interest as if there is nothing else in the world to do other then watching the cat run behind the rat... Forgetting his tiredness, he stood watching the little one who next moment started to laugh as tom got trap on his own mess which he has let for jerry...

Laughter echo around the house, lady come out from the room to see why the little one was laughing so much... Seeing the guy watching the little one standing not far away from them, she move to him knowing the little one was unaware of the guy present...
'Tum kab aaya Armaan...' Lady said breaking his trace...
'Bas abhi aaya hoon Bi, betu ne khana khaya???' Armaan asked looking back at the little one...
'Haan tumhare betu ne khana khaya hai aur dekho apni milk bhi almost khatam kardiya...' Bi said...
'Sorry Bi, I know betu aapko bohot ghumati hogi pura din... Main koshish karta hoon jaldi aane ki but aapko pata haina kitna kaam hota hai...' Armaan said as Bi took the bag from him...
'Koi baat nehi beta, tum jaante ho na mere liyeh tum khudki bete ke tarah ho... Meri koi aulat nehi hai lekin jabse main yaha kaam karna shuru kiya, mujhe tumhare ruhp mein beta mila hai...' Bi said caring Armaan hair...
'Main bohot lucky hoon mujhe doh ma mili hai zindagi mein... Ek nehi toh kiya huva, dusri ma abhi hai mere paas, mera khayal rakhne ke liyeh... Bi, main aapke upar zyada bhoj nehi daalna chahti... Issiliyeh main betu ke liyeh jaldi ek nanny ka inthizaam karungi...' Armaan said...
'Kiya zarurat hai Armaan, main sambhalungi na...' Bi said...
'Kaise zarurat nehi hai Bi, aap bhi bimar rehte ho... Aur mujhe pata hai betu kitni shararati hai ab... Yaha waha ghumna, kabhi chair pe, table pe ya cupboard pe chadna... Aapko ghar ke saari kaam dekhna hota hai uparse betu ka bhi dyan rakhna hai... Nehi Bi, maine sochliya aisa kissi koh laungi jo humhare saath rehkar betu ki dyan rakke... Aapko bhi haat batane wala koi miljaenge na Bi...' Armaan said...
'Tik hai beta, tum itna bol rahe ho toh tik hai... Lekin mujhe pasand nehi aayi aur meri saath nehi bante toh main usko kaam se nikal dungi...' Bi said...
'Jaisa aapko tik lage Bi... Main fresh hokar aata hoon, let betu enjoy her cartoon till then...' Armaan said kissing Bi cheek and moving to his room which was in the first floor...

ARMAAN POV START

I enter the  room, dim light was coming through the window as the curtains were left open... Removing the jacket, I move towards the window looking out at the dark sky as I lose my tie... Soon the happy expression change to sad as I search something above in the sky...
'Kitni ajeeb baat hai, kuch din pehle sab kuch perfect ta mere zindagi mein but achanak ek tufaan aaya aur sab kuch bikar ke rakh diya... Pata nehi bhagwaan kiya chahte hai, pehle ma papa koh mujhse dur kardiya aur ab betu koh uske ma se bhi dur kardiya... Aur kitna imthihaan lenge mera, mere upar itna bada zimmedaari chod diya... Office ke saath saath mujhe betu ki needs koh bhi ek baap ke tarah pura karna hota hai... Mera toh samajh mein aata hai, main bada hoon, khud ka khayal rakh sakta hoon lekin betu... Woh kitni choti hai, usko apne feelings bayan bhi karna nehi aati...' Tears fall from my eyes as all those words leave from my mouth which I always let out once I come out to give some peace to my heart...
