It was time for Shaurya to take a break from his work. He made the decision to go to the canteen to meet his "princess".
He began to make his way towards the cafeteria.
...
During the break, Anokhi and Reema were in the canteen with Mimi as usual.
Someone noticed them from the outside of the door.
...
"Aapko pta hai..."
"Mela aul meli Mumma ka favoulate kalal (favorite color) blue hai...", she gently stroked his coat sleeves.
...
"Main apne khoye hue rishte ko vaapas paana chaahta hoon....", he said it straight on her face.
...
"Tu aisa nhi kar sakta..."
"Us aurat ko hum yaha vaapas kisi bhi keemat par aane nhi denge..."
...
"Meri ek shart hai tumse...", Devi said.
...
Shaan was shocked to hear Devi's condition.
...
"Dad !!..."
"Aap aisa nhi kar sakte...", tears streamed down his eyes endlessly.
...
The moment he crossed the threshold, Shaurya transformed into a stone.
He felt he had lost everything he had as a child.
