Part 50

Ram and vikram rushed to place from where the call for pihu’s information came wd the cops , but they found it to be a mere prank by a guy to get the award money kept by ram for the info for his daughter …

Pihu was still missing…

The doctor came to kapoor mansion he checked priya and said that she is in trauma and he also added to rishab that they should find out pihu asap otherwise he is afraid that , priya’s health might get worse. He preferred to appoint a nurse over there who will manipulate priya and work in absence of him . he called at his hospital and asked for a nurse to get appointed at kapoor mansion, and as everyone knows ram kapoor’s name has the power , the nurse came within few minutes , less than half an hour .

Ram came back wd the cops he got the news of priya’s health from saumya . he went to priya and found her still senseless, wd a heavy heart he came to the hall and sat by the cops. One of the cops spoke out … “ if it would be the case of kidnapping mr.kapoor then ransom call should have come ..” ram looked up and said “ so .. what you feel it to be ….” The cop stood up and said “ I m sorry mr.kapoor but I feel it to be very serious …” vikram shouted and said ‘ what do you want to say …..” suddenly rahul came and vikram rushed to him expecting some positive news from him , vikram noticed a kid of pihu’s age behind rahul wd her parents , vik asked rahul about that kid . rahul briefed that pihu was last seen wd that kid so he convinced her parents to take her there , so that cops could get some news or lead about pihu . vikram appraised rahul for his good work and welcomed pihu’s classmate and her parents . ram knelt to the kid and said “ beta .. have you seen pihu during the final bell??” the kid nodded and said ‘yes uncle !!!” ram smiled and said “ so have she went wd n e one !!!” the kid looked here and there and said “ no uncle we came together to the gate then pihu got into her school bus ,” ram got tensed hearing the last few words from the kid, if pihu had got into the bus then where she could have gone … ram again knelt to her and said “ had khush got up wd her beta do you know ??” the girl said ‘ no uncle today we the girls got off early  then mam let the boys go , because they disturb us during the final bell. Khush was not wd pihu ….. and pihu got into the bus first ….’ Ram looked at vikram and said “ vik if she got into the bus then were the hell she is ??” vikram asked him to calm down and kneeling to the kid he said “ beta … when did the bus .. left from the school….” The kid thought for a while and said ‘ As soon as pihu got into it the bus .. left …..” vikram and ram stood up and said “ gosh!!! man she rode the wrong bus ……” ram impatiently said ‘ ok if she has rode the wrong bus then dnt the other drivers have the duty to drop the kid to the right place ….” The cops interfered and said ‘ here I m afraid mr.kapoor about your daughter’s safety .. I think … ram shouted in between and said “ dare to say n e thing …. If n e thing happened to my daughter I would see those bust***s I will kill them …” vikram holding ram in his arms said “ ram ..its a possibility that pihu has rode a wrong bus but we have to confirm it you call the school trusties and get all the drivers and care taker for a drill and from there we can know that in which bus pihu would have rode….” Ram calmed down and agreed wd vikram and did as he said .

Inside …

Priya gained sense … neha caressed her head , priya after gaining sense uttered “ pihu … pihu ….” Neha taking her hand on hers said “ priya …. Priya ,, darling ..pihu is all right …. “ priya sat jumping up and said “ where .. where .. neha where is she bring her to me ….” Neha hold priya tightly in her arms and said “ priya .. we will get her .. very soon …. Dnt panic darling ….” Priya looked at neha and broke into cries , she said “ for me yes for me this happened , neither I have made the childish demand to send the kids in school bus nor I have to see this day … I m not a good mother neha .. I lost my kid …. I lost my love …..” neha holding priya tight said “ no priya nothing happened , just take it as a bad dream , and when this dream will break , pihu will be wd you , neha said wd tears in her eyes … 

Ram came inside ,he saw priya crying , he was angry wd priya for the first few moments when he got the news of pihu missing , but afterwards he calmed himself down and forgave priya , he sat by priya and kept his hand on priya’s head , priya felt his touch and hugging him tight she cried badly …. Ram holding her in his arms said “ shhh …. Shhh…. dnt cry baby …. Mein hoon naa …. I will find her out very quickly …. Dnt cry just get food ready for her , because she might not have taken n e thing after lunch break …. “ priya looked at ram and asked has he got her … ram smiled faintly and said “ will get her very soon , you just control yourself … plz darling …. For pihu ….” Priya hugged him back and said “ ram I will kill myself if n e thing happens to my love … I swear I will kill my self …. Ram hugged her back and said ‘ I will not let you do that priya , coz nothing has happened to pihu she is safe I know , my heart knows , and now you take care of yourself , I m going to take her , our love, back .. ok …” ram placing a kiss on her forehead left from there … neha consoled priya …..

Ram came out and found sharmas there sudheer asked him for pihu , ram asked him to calm down and said that he is going to find pihu only and priya is not well so he requested them to take care of priya and themselves also , he also added that as soon as he will get n e lead , he will inform them .

Ram and vikram were on their way to the school , suddenly ram’s phone buzzed ……. Ram noticed a new number , he received the call with a hope to get any lead about pihu ….

A voice in British ascent reached ram’s ears …..

----- is this mr.ram kapoor ???? the unknown voice asked ….

------- yes it is …. Ram answered ….

----- sir is your daughter missing ?? the foreigner asked ram …

------ yes she .. is … ram replied in hurry and also added “ do you have n e news about her ???

------ I m afraid sir I dnt  have n e news about her … but .. sir I have her wd me …… the foreigner replied …..

A breath of relief ram exhaled and said “ thank you thank you so much for the news and where can I meet you to take my daughter back …… ram asked the stranger … who came to their life as a rescuer for him for priya for the kapoors shergills and sharmas…

The stranger asked them to come to the oberoi’s room no 2102 … ram asked the driver to rush to oberoi , and he also gave the news to vikram and the cops too… with no time , ram wd vikram were at oberoi wd the cops waiting downstairs , ram and vik rushed to the room no 2102 .. they knocked at the door and a tall white man of 25-26 opened the door and said “ must be mr.ram kapoor , she is inside , sleeping ….” Ram rushed in and vikram shook hand wd the man , briefing their identity to the man .

Ram went in and found in deemed light pihu is sleeping covered wd a quilt .. ram sat by her , caressing her hair , he slowly called her by taking her name …. Pihu lazily opened her eyes and seeing her papa she jumped and hugged him tight and said “ papa .. take me to mamma .. plz papa …. “ ram hugged her back and stood up …. Wd pihu … and said “ yes beta I will…..but let me thank the uncle who took care of you ….” Pihu hiding her face into ram’s neck nodded positively …

Ram came out wd pihu and shook hand wd the man and said “ I m ram kapoor ..”the man uttered back “ me mark simons … from Britain … I m a photographer sir , I was clicking photographs of the marine drive and other outskirts , when  I found her crying , and before that I saw some news about her missing , I preferred to call you before going to the cops as I m a foreigner to this country I preferred to do so ….” Ram thanked a millions time to mark and said “ how can I repay you back mark …” the man smiled and said “ I m not so heartless , sir … I also have a son .. I think 4-5 years elder than ur daughter I know how it feels when our love goes away from us .. nothing sir ….jut take care of her .. she was bit afraid and was not coming wd me.. when I said that I know her mommy and will take her to her mommy then only she agreed to come wd me .. and as I took her in my arms .. she was very feeble and she slept on the way ….better you go for a doctor before you go home…” ram thanked mark once again .. and invited him for a dinner to the kapoor mansion , which mark gladly accepted , abd ram wd pihu and vikram left from there ….

Ram took pihu to dr.shah first . doc checked her and said “ she is weak and having fever … nothing else than that .. he asked ram to take care of her well … and also suggested not to send pihu school for next few days . ram left for km. on his way back he called km and gave the news to Krishna maa… Krishna maa gave the news to priya , she ran to the main gate , unstoppable from n e one …

Ram on the other hand gave the news of pihu to the school trusties but he didn’t allowed the drivers and caretakers to move from the school , he informed them that he is coming to the school dropping his daughter to her mother .

Ram’s car reached km . the lights of the car fell on priya’s eyes , ram also found priya sitting on the ground wd shipra on her side and sudheer and Krishna wd dadi standing there ,wd neha …. Ram asked the driver to stop by the gate ,priya stood up and ran to the car , ram got out of the car wd sleeping pihu in his arms,priya snatched her from ram and placed several kisses on her face , and cried , neha came near priya and said “ priya its late night now take her inside … and get her changed and we should get her something …”priya agreed to her , rishab came and took pihu in his arms and carried her inside. Priya before turning she looked at ram’s eyes and seek apology from him , ram blinked his eyelids and asked her to go to pihu . she obeyed ram and went inside .

Ram informed sudheer and Krishna how they got pihu and also said that now they are going to the school to find out the main reason behind this incident . sudheer and Krishna ji came inside ,

Raya’s bedroom

Priya changed pihu’s dress and bansi kaka came wd some biscuits that pihu likes to eat and a glass of hot chocolate , pihu’s favorite…… priya asked him to leave the tray by the bed side table . bansi kaka did as priya asked him to do . priya then caressing pihu’s hairs said “ beta … chalo …. Have something…” pihu looked at her mamma then to the others in the room .. and said “ mujhe sirf mamma chaiye .. aur koi nahi .. sirf mamma….” And hugged priya tight …. Priya hugged her back , neha stood up and said “ we should leave them alone … and priya , when ever ram will reach , I will send him directly here ok .. you just take care of her …” neha closed the door from outside as all evacuated the room for priya and pihu ..

Priya smiled and made pihu look at her said ‘ beta abb dekho koi nahi hain .. mamma ke alawa ….” Pihu looked at the room and said “ mamma …. App mujhe kabhi chod ke nahi jayoge naa… mujhe kabhi kahin nahi jane dena … mamma…..” she sobbed and hide her face in priya’s bosom …. Priya hugged her back and said “ nahi baby .. mamma will never ever leave you alone .. but now .. mamma jo kehti hain .. wo karo baby please….” Pihu looked wd teary eyes to priya and nodded in agreement wd her …

Priya helped pihu to drink the hot chocolate and fed pihu wd some biscuits , pihu cuddled into her mamma’s lap and dozed off to sleep very soon …..

Back in the school …

Ram shouted “ dnt you have the common sense to call the child’s parent if he/she has taken the wrong bus …. Haven’t you???????????????” he shouted to the top most pitch of his voice ….

The principal said “ mrkapoor calm down pihu is safe that’s the main point ,”

------ comeon … sir I know my daughter and I have seen the fear in her eyes ,,… and how can you say that my daughter is safe .. haa.. how can you say that … this trauma has not put an effect to her you want to say me that …….”

Principal agreed to ram and said “ I agree mr.kapoor but what has happened … we cant help to do any thing …”

Vikram cuts in saying “ sir we know nothing can be done , but this people how dare they abandoned the kid in the last stop , I mean I m getting terribly shaken up when I m thinking of a mere 6 year kid roaming free around the streets I mean how irresponsible they are , they could have dropped a call to the school that , a kid has taken the wrong bus .. they were supposed to come back to the school they could have taken pihu back to the school and hand her to the hostel authority , they could have taken decision ….i mean .. the principal cuts in saying “ if they have so much of power to think mr.shergill then they won’t be at that place, they might be at your place , but what they could have done minimum they could take pihu back to the school and abandoning a kid in the middle of the city they have done a  mistake and mr.kapoor what ever punishment you will give , we will accept it .

Ram looked at the driver and the caretaker in whose bus pihu have got into mistakenly , and said “ no punishment sir , but make them understand that from the next time they should not do the same mistake … if it happens again whether wd my kid or some one else’s . ram without stretching the conversation left for km wd vikram .

Ram and vikram came back to km , they were exhausted too coz they searched for pihu , from the afternoon nonstop wd out having a drop of water, they settled down on the couch , neha gave water to them and said “ ram you go to your room , pihu and priya are waiting for you , and I m sending some light food for you and priya and pihu is done wd her dinner , I think so , coz priya was trying to fed her hour back ..” ram nodded and left for his room ….ram came inside and found pihu sleeping in her mamma’s lap , priya was well awake . ram stood there and waited until the help came and gave him the light dinner served by neha … ram looked at tensed face of priya , he tried to make the moment little light . looking at the food he said “priya .. tumhare saath rehte rehte all are getting ghas phoos as their foremost priority isn’t it funny ..he laughed but of no use .. priya kept starring at ram.

Ram kept the tray on the centre table and sat by priya , he caressed pihu’s head and placed a kiss on her cheek and then another at her forehead and looked priya , ram came closer to priya and hugged her , priya closed her eyes and hide her face in his shoulder blade and wept …. Ram keeping one hand on her head said “ priya baby .. calm down .. our love is wd us … no …so dnt cry baby … dnt …” priya looked at ram and said “ what ever happened is only for me .. neither I insisted to send them by bus nor this would have happened … why dnt you scold me and stop me from doing this ram … he smiled and took the plates to priya and fed her by his hands , without allowing her to speak further and he also preferred to stay calm .

Ram took pihu and made her sleep properly and also made priya lie down , he once again kissed pihu on her fore head and looking at priya he said “ priya so jao … its not good for you … and your health plz so jao .. he placed a kiss on her fore head ,  and caressing her hairs , he bend down and kissed her lips softly and said “ so jao … priya .. pihu is wd us … in her mom’s warmth .. I have no tension now .. and whats next that we can decide 2morrow baby … but now sleep ….” Priya turned to pihu and taking her in her arms said “ u also change and come fast , u r also very tiered ram ….” Ram caressed her hairs and said “ yes baby …. You are right I m too much tiered …. Just coming in a moment ….” Ram went to change .. and after few minutes he came back switched off the lights and lied down by pihu .. he cme closer to pihu .. priya ram hugging from both sides …. Slowly dozed off to sleep ….. pihu smiled in sleep .. getting the warmth of her mom dad……
