Messed life

When she shut her eyes, the only thought that was running on her mind was the application form to Boston university, the dark night when she was lifted by a man who covered his face with a mask , the blue diamond engagement ring and the poison bottle. She didn't know that these would be the turning point of her life. She never thought that, these would rewrite her fate. She didn't have tears left to weep any more. She remembered the sparkling smile she had throughout. She craved for that smile again. She raised her eyelashes without further letting to remind the dark days which changed her life.

A flight landed in Boston Logan international airport in Massachusetts.

A car stopped beside the airport and an old woman with shrink bones, loose skin, blood flecked eyes, weak fragile voice , who had limping unsteady walk seemed to be pushed down to the street by a man who is in his middle age from his car.

The man seemed to be like the son of this old woman. The guy threw some harsh words onto that woman by making the woman to tear up. He threw some luggage's to the woman and again with some harsh words he asked her "please move away from me, I don't want you in my life any more, whenever I'm free I'll visit you and hereafter the orphanage is going to be your house. I'll book a taxi for you, from here you can go for any orphanage you wish. It's time for my flight, I'm leaving then. If you want any money, drop me a text, I'll deposit the money you want. Then good bye "

"God bless you son" the old woman teared up with the words of her cruel son. But she didn't move away from the car.

"Can you please get lost; my driver must leave and I must go the airport. Please don't be a burden to me "

Before the harsh words of this guy reach out completely, he gets a sudden slap on his cheeks, which made everyone there get shock and look at the incident that's happening. The guy raised his head with anger in order to look who slapped him and it was a beautiful slim girl who had brown wavy hair with brown eyes. She had a glowing skin with thin rosy lips. She was also carrying a luggage with her.

"Hey Girl, who the hell are you to slap me? You seem to be a visitor to so that you don't know the rules of this country. You can't slap anyone here publicly. You must face some severe circumstances."

The girl seemed to be so casual although the guy was screaming out on her. The girl crossed her legs and leaned on her luggage's arrogantly without giving ear to the guy.

"Who are you to slap my son in the public. I'll definitely file a complaint against you," said the old woman.

The girl keeps a tight smile holding back her anger by persuading the central part of her lips with the mouth corners pulled back.

"Granny, when this guy was mistreating you in this same place, where were the rules and regulations? Where were the police complaints? I was noticing everything for quite long time. I might be new to this country but not for this world. How cruel he was. He just pushed you out of the car. He ain't wrong for you? You aren't in a condition to be pushed to the road so cruelly. By the way Is he your son? "

"Yes "nodded the old woman.

" woah that's awesome. Well, all these years when you are growing him up did you think him as a burden? Or because you needed peace in your life or just because you want to enjoy your life did you chase him away from you? Let him have his own freedom that's completely his wish but why being harsh on you? Is he really busy at least for not being able to drop you in an orphanage? If he really wanted you to be in an orphanage and if he is a perfect man, I mean a perfect son he would have at least found a comfortable orphanage for you. But did he even do that? Leave them out, let him be really busy at least his driver would have dropped you in a proper orphanage, why is he even not letting the driver to drop you? Doesn't he seemed to be wrong to you? You didn't even take him wrong but when I slapped him you couldn't bear it up but he did the same to you, he mistreated you, what made you not fight against him? The love you kept on him right. but did he even respect you as a mother? What kind of a soul he is? The pain you went through for 9 months carrying him in your womb, then the Struggles you had to face to grow him up. His flesh is from your flesh. it's something common and a well-known fact how much sacrifice a mother does to bring her child to this world. but why is he behaving with you so harshly? Leave out all, he acted to you rudely so I slapped him, but yet you still supporting him, he isn't a human if he doesn't realise the value of a mother even now. The animals too live in troops as they know the worth of parents, is your son worse than an animal? "

"Stop it dear, he is yet small. He needs time to understand. At times I was wrong too. I'm a real trouble to him. More over this is our personal problem don't intervene in middle and embarrass my son. I beg you dear, just go away from here." Said the old woman with flowing tears.

The girl: "This is the definition of mother "

Old woman: "look dear, there is no any mistake in doing this to me and this is our personal matter. Please do ask apologies from my son and leave this place. Please go away "

Girl: "This is your personal problem but it's happening in public. If something wrong caught my eyes, I'll definitely look into them. I don't think he is smaller than me, and Mr (turning towards the guy) maybe it's getting late for you, maybe it's the time for your flight, you can go in, I'll drop this innocent granny in any orphanage that I see. Have a safe journey not a cursed journey. Even after explaining your mistakes if your mother is trying to protect you that proves how strong the love of a mother. What I feel is You are actually very unlucky. While many are suffering without a mother you are just trying to move away from her. What can I say to you other than saying un-lucky? But don't dare to forget this tear. I'm sorry for making a mess over here. But late me take care of you granny."

The guy bows down with guilt as he realises that what he did was a great mistake.

"Mom, I'm really sorry for behaving with you in such way, I didn't understand anything what she told or I don't care of those, but even after me chasing you and behaving harshly with you, you still stood behalf of me, this is the difference between a mother and others. Love you mom. I don't want to go anywhere without you, until you live, I'm going to be beside you. I'm going to be one of the luckiest person in this world. (By holding his mother's hand) Sorry mom. "

"Fred, when I saw you for the first time, I cried in awe and disbelief. It was a magical feeling. Even after carrying you in my womb for 9 months, I couldn't believe that I gave life to a cute little boy. When we came back from hospital I felt a jolt of sadness, I cried and I doubted myself whether I could do it? Till your 6 years old, I can't remember a single day where I have slept for more than 6 to 8 hours, I would wake in midnight to tend my crying son. Again, when you're just 8 years old your father left us alone and went to God. I felt enough of living but what made me move forward, what made me stay strong is my child my world and it's you. I had to take over a father's responsibility too. Although they were stressful, seeing my child every morning made me feel someone genuinely needs my love and needs me. I lived only for you Fred. As I didn't want you to grow up as an orphan, I was holding my breath until this moment. Yes, the moment you chased me out of your house and the moment you said that I'm a burden I felt like you're killing me alive. But I never took you wrong because if I grew you up with explaining all the hardships that I went through you wouldn't have behaved as this. But still just few words of this girl made you feel guilt and made you apologies. Fred my son, you're genuinely loveable.

The old woman cuddles her son with tears flowing.

"Mom please do forgive me; I did a big mistake"

"you're my son will I not forgive you? I was holding my breath because I didn't want you to grow up alone wouldn't I forgive you?"

The guy turning towards the girl and thank her for making him realize the truth.

"You're welcome and sorry for the slap "she shrugs and walks forward by wiping the tears collected in her eyes.

"Excuse me "

The girl turns towards the direction of the voice. It's a man who is in his 50's or 60's who called up on her. Once she looked at him, she stared at him for a while and looked on to her phone suddenly. The person who was in a picture in her mobile was the same person who called up on her now. The man too looked on to his phone again to make sure if she was the girl he is finding for.

"Are you Riya? "

"Uncle Peter?"

"Yes dear'' peter, gives a pleasant smile to Riya.

"Well, I'm Riya then "Riya gives a handshake to Peter with a delighted smile.

"Am I late dear? Were you waiting for me for a long time "?

"Not really, just now I came out of the airport. You came on time uncle ".

"That's nice to hear, will get into the car then"

"Sure "

Riya and Peter gets into the car.

Peter: hope you're comfortable

Riya : yes, I'm

Peter: well, let's move on then. Albert you can head towards our house. Riya, can I ask you a question dear?

Riya : Sure, you may uncle

peter : Why did you slap that guy?

Riya; OH, you saw that, which means you have arrived to pick me on time uncle

Peter: Yes, actually everyone who were there was shock to see it. Did he misbehave with you ?

Riya chuckles and says, ''OH no, he didn't misbehave with me but he mistreated his mother, gave him some proper advice how to be with his mother and how to show gratitude to a mother. Uncle I don't usually get angry, but if something related to parents, I can't bear it up. I knew that I slapped him is totally wrong but how can he push his mother out of the car. She literally went to fall. That woman doesn't even have energy to walk. And the way he threw words to her, what made me more enraged is when he told his mother you're a burden, how can he even say that. How can even that word come out of his mouth? If his mother thought him as a burden he wouldn't have been surviving now. Although I knew I'm wrong I don't mind it when it comes to parents. Parents must be given their due respect. Let that person be a girl or boy, men or women, uncle or aunt or even an older person than me or a person with so much of influence, I simply don't care. If they treat their parents in an unethical way in front of my eyes, they'll get a slap from me with bunch of advice. "

Peter begins to clap "Dilip has brought you up perfectly. What you told is true dear, children must know how much sacrifice parents make to bring them up "

Once she heard the name dilip her face turns pale, but without further showing it up on her face, Riya gives a pleasant smile and says to Peter "thank you uncle, even in India many has nicely got advices from me for behaving rudely with their parents and here once I arrived this man got a slap. I'm usually a very cool girl but when it comes to matter of parents, you know I'll be kina rude. Any way I'm sorry if I did something wrong as I'm going to stay in your house for few months, I must act as how you'll say. I Hope this incident will not trouble you'll"

"No dear, you didn't do anything wrong. No such rules here. You can live the way you want. All what I feel is you are a very humble girl. I love honest and brave people. See you are so brave. You stand Against the wrong deeds. How nice it is. And by the way he is Albert, my driver. Hereafter where ever you want to go you can go with him. Even you dad knew him very well. Before when your dad come USA, he gets my driver for all his rides "

Riya smiles and blink her eyes as a mean of accepting Peter uncle.

" dear want to say you one more thing?"

" yes uncle"

" Not a big thing but a small question"

" Alright ask uncle"

" in your house you lived with your uncles , aunts and many. So does any of your uncles are scared for their wife?"

Riya gets a sudden smile with uncle peters question and In order to cover her smile Riya touch her philtrum.

" Probably he is scared of his wife I guess. That's why such a question has been raised" Riya muttered under her breath.

" uncle that is, it actually depends. A common fact is that husband's are scared of wife. In my house of course small uncle is scared of small aunt but big aunt is scared of big uncle."

" must give an award to your big uncle then. I mean I'm not scared for my wife but she is a dinosaur. She has the best qualities but dinosaur. She is a little grumpier in the morning. I don't let anyone know it. Since you'll stay here for a quite long time I wanted to say this to you. So you'll not wonder.Don't let anyone else know it dear. My prestige problem. "

Riya nods her head by controlling her laughter. In order to control her laughter Riya stick her tongue against the inside of her cheeks.

" it's very hard to find a man who can control his wife. I mean where both give up. That's life"

" Uncle as far as I know my mummy and daddy gave equal rights to each other. None of them are scared of each other. But what you told is true it's hard to find such couples. Even my parents bond didn't last long. ( Riya eyes gets wet ) Only two years and my mummy left the world. What ever the bonding it is if one can give up and if they love each other truly they can have a happy life"

"Indeed dear, I'm sorry for reminding you your past. But what you said is so true. It all depends on us. I'm living a happy life with my dinosaur"

"Uncle, if one more time you say dinosaur, I'll complaint to aunty" Riya laughs out loudly.

"Okay my dear will see" Peter too starts laughing.

"Our house is only 15 minutes away from the airport and here we go, we reached the house. Get down dear "

"Sure, I'll get my luggage's uncle "

"No dear, Albert will bring them "

"Okay then "Riya gets down from the vehicle and walk towards the house.

Peter: Ann, look who has come. My Dilip's daughter Riya.

Ann who was a fair woman with short blonde hair came to the living room with the addressing of her husband Peter.

Ann: ohhhh welcome my darling. Welcome. I'm excited to see you my honey. How lovely you are

Ann gives a tight hug to Riya and kiss her forehead.

Ann: Look here dear, this is your house. You must think this as your house. You can have all your freedom here. And from today onwards you're our daughter.

Riya gets a delightful smile with excitement.

Riya: Thank you so, so much aunty. I'm honestly mesmerized with your gesture.

Ann: I don't know if I will be able to look after you as how your dad and relatives took care of you but I'll try my best darling.

Riya's eyes get wet once she heard it. She glances down and wipe her tears secretly making sure no-body noticed it.

Peter: Ann shows her the room and take her a little tour around the house.

Ann: yes, dear come. We have two guest rooms and you can choose the most comfortable one for you. This is the first room. And this is the other.

The first room seemed to be really comfortable with all furniture's and it was kind of bigger than the other.

Peter: although she has two options for you, only the first room seems so comfortable. Probably Riya would choose the first one. Am I right dear?

Riya: no uncle, I'll choose the other room.

Peter and Ann look at each other with a puzzled reaction.

Ann: yeah, choosing your comfortable zone is left for you but this room is not really comfortable compared to the first one.

Riya: I knew it aunty. I'll be staying in this house for about a month or more, so better chose the less comfortable one because if in case any other visitors visit your place you all can give the most comfortable one to them.

Ann: Even you are a visitor honey.

Riya: but aunty you asked me to consider this as my own house right.

Ann and Peter look at each other's face.

Ann: you're too smart my honey.

Riya: At any point I must not be a hindrance to you'll. That's why I thought of doing as such

Ann: I have always been worried for not having a daughter and hereafter I don't want to be worried.

Ann touches Riya's cheeks emotionally with so much of love in her eyes.

Riya blinks her eye and embrace Ann again.

Ann: Okay dear, now go and rest yourself. You might be tired after a long journey. (Ann looking towards Albert) Albert, take the luggage's to that small room.

Albert keeps Riya's luggage's in the room.

Riya: Thank you so much Albert. Here is a small gift for the help you did.

Albert: Madam just for carrying the luggage's you giving me this.

Riya blinks her eyes and says Albert "first person to help me here, so yeah get this small gift "

"Thank you so much Madam "

"My pleasure Albert "

Riya close her room door, walk towards the bed and while sitting on the bed gets her mobile into her hand. She sends a message saying "I arrived "and dashes her mobile to the bed while closing her eyes tightly after leaving a strong breath.

She again gets her mobile to her hand.

After few hours, tears welled up in Riya's cheeks while staring at the family photo on her mobile, and got her conscious back when she heard Aunt Ann knocking the door.

Riya got up from the bed and walked towards the door and opened the door.

Ann: Hello love, hope you are comfortable.

Riya: yes aunty, I'm

Ann: why is your eyes filled with tears dear ...?

Riya: ugh, it's Just nothing.

Ann: That's how it is. Usually everyone gets home sick for first two weeks and they get used to it with time. Come dear will have our dinner. Probably You might be hungry "

Riya nods her head silently and says,

"Sure aunty. I'll come ".

Aunt Ann leaves the room and again Riya glances at the family picture and starts tearing. She closed her eyes tightly and recalled all what made her leave her family and come abroad.

"Riyaaaaa, your daddy is on his way back to home. Get down soon. Hurry up girl "Rohini aunt screamed loudly.

Riya who was climbing up on a mango tree with a cat in her hand jumped down soon as she heard her daddy is on his way back home. When she is jumping from the tree her hair was all around her face. She tilted her head in order to move off the hair which was fallen to her face.

(Riya possess one of the most charismatic and beautiful personalities in the town. While some are fans of her smile, others simply are infatuated with her facial features. She was also called as Miss Beautiful Smile and Miss Beautiful eyes by all her known fellows. God has used special effect when creating Riya as she looks damn pretty. She is beautiful not only externally but also internally.

Riya's Dad Mr Dilip Raghunath is one of the billionaires in the town. Her house was a mansion and if Riya wishes for something she got it even before asking for it. Riya was in her early 20's. Mr Dilips Elder brother Mr Andrew Raghunath and his wife Rohini Ragunath their daughter Natasha and son in law Vikram and their grandson agrue , Rohini's second daughter Swathi, Dilip's younger sister Divya Raghunath and her husband Mohan and their son Karthik and daughter Madhu lived in Riya's Mansion. The whole Raghunath family lived together. Although Riya was blessed with everything, she too had a sadness in her heart. That's her mother. Riya lost her mother as soon as she entered to this world. As Riya shouldn't grow up alone Mr Dilip decided to bring his siblings and their kids to his place. Mr Dilip had certain conditions. He was the only person who was strict with Riya. Riya and her daddy weren't so close. They didn't even talk to each other. There wasn't a particular reason behind it but from small days Riya was closer to her uncles, aunts and cousins but not with her daddy. But she loved him more than any on this planet. When Mr Dilip leaves the house Riya does all the naughty work as no one is there to rule upon her. Mr Dilip maintained to be strict with Riya as per his wife, Riya's mother's wish. Since she doesn't have a mother and she'll be over petted her mother has advised Mr Dilip to be strict with Riya as her last wish, on her death bed. Her mother also had certain dreams on how her daughter should grow up and Mr Dilip never forgot to fulfil his wife's dreams.)

Once Rohini aunt kept chanting that her daddy is back, Riya got off the tree and ran to her room and gets few books in her hand to act as an innocent cat in front of her daddy.

Mr Dilip: Divya , Rohini ...(He called them as he entered the house )

Divya: ahhhh you came so soon? Didn't you leave brother?

Dilip: wait, while traveling got to know a happy news so came to inform you'll as I'm very excited. Call everyone down. I'll say everyone together.

Divya and Rohini looks at each other with a puzzled face

Rohini: Madu, Natasha and Karthik .... Riya you too come down soon. Hurry up children.

( Rohini aunt gave a loud sound)

Everyone gathered to the living room even including Mr Mohan and Andrew. Riya, contacted Divya aunt from eye's by raising her eyebrows asking what's the matter. Divya aunt shrugs as she is also unaware of it.

Mohan: what's special

Andrew: you seem to be very excited Dilip. Yes, what's up?

Dilip chuckled thinking the concern everyone has on listening to him.

Vikram: Uncle Its probably something related to Riya ... Am I right?

Dilip chuckles again

Dilip : yes Vikram . It's related to her only.

Riya raised her eyelash and looked at her daddy with frown lines as she knew her daddy might have come up with something cunning to her.

Dilip gets some files from his driver Venkat's hand And takes some papers out of it. Riya then glance at Venkat and ask him the matter with facial expressions. She also bites her upper lips with nervousness. Venkat stick out his tongue as a mean of mocking her.

Dilip : Look do you'll know what's this? It's an admission form.

Aunts look at each other again with confusion.

Natasha: as in? What admission form

Dilip : admission form of Boston international school for Medicine in USA. Riya will be completing her PHD there for next 5 years. I applied to it few months back and got a mail saying she is selected and asking her to join.

Riya's face turns dull with what her daddy told while others blossom in happiness. She couldn't believe it up. She covers her face from her Palm with anxiety.

"Uhm Me ... How can I leave all them and live for 5 years? If it's 5 months fine. 5 years. He has gone nuts. He has been too rude these days. Leave me, as if he can stay for five years without seeing me." Riya mumbles.

Rohini: it's a very good news.

Andrew: yes, exactly. We must have a big party before Riya leave.

Riya looks down for a while and start speaking to her daddy confidently by kneading her hands.

Riya: Daddy .... I'm not happy with it. Why can't I complete it here in India? We have a lot of good colleges here nah .... So please let me do it here. I can't live like an orphan there. I'll miss these people a lot. And specially you will miss me too. Please daddy for Chrissake please do consider what I'm saying. Here I do have a wide circle of friends and acquaintances. How can I leave everyone and live there all alone?

Riya approaches her daddy softly as an innocent cat.

Dilip : Riya I have taken the decision just proceed with it . I'm not asking any of your suggestions. It's my order. After going there you can make new friends. Talk with sense rather speaking like an infant

Riya's eyes get filled with tears. Face turns pink. She loses her patience and with a much louder sound

"Daddy .... Please .... This is my life ... Don't order. understand... I'll miss all them, even a day or 2 I can't live without them, so how are you thinking that I would wait for 5 years... Come on to reality .... This not going to work out and and ( Riya stammers and with much more loudly)im, I, I,m, I'm not gonna goooo!

Dilip turning towards his sister Divya ,

"Divya, ask her to pack her stuffs. Within 10 to 15 days she'll have to fly. Probably on 25th of June. Ask her to arrange all necessary things. Whatever said or done, Riya must fly USA and study in Boston. Venkat will do all other arrangements like getting the visa done.", Mr Dilip leaves to his room although Riya gave a sniff of disapproval to him.

Riya wets her cheeks with tears. She goes near Mohon uncle give him a tight hug and starts crying out loud. Nobody likes to see Riya's tears as all them love her so much. Everyone starts tearing.

Riya: why is daddy being rude. Isn't it my wish to chose the place that I have to study. Won't I feel lonely there?

Karthik: hey bubble gum... It's for your own good man. Just chill up. Many Struggles to go abroad and study but you just crying because you don't want it. What human are you ... We aren't in 19th or 20th century to miss each other. Just a call away man. And specially with video calls ...

Riya: noh not like that .... It depends on different people's opinion. I don't want to miss my family. You'll are my everything. Already daddy doesn't love me. I don't have mom with me too. If I go abroad, you'll will live your life and would forget me ...

Rohini: Riya what's this dear, talking nonsense. Nothing like that. you are our daughter. Will we even forget you? Talk with sense. And Dilip loves you so much . How can you say he don't love you?

Riya: If he loves me, he wouldn't be so cruel to chase me out of this country. He hates me. He thinks I'm a burden. When there is 1000s of good colleges here and when I'm saying can't why should he think of America.... It's just to send me away from his eyes. He hates me. He never consider my words.

Riya shrugs her mouth to show the annoyance.

Natasha: Riya why are you even talking like a small baby? What's this Riya?

Riya nods her head with tears and run to her room.

Karthik : Maaa..I think what Riya feel is right. When she has an opportunity to learn here why should she force to go abroad. Even I don't like with it. After all, it's her life her wish. No one can rule upon her

Madu : Me too agree with karthik... Riya shouldn't go .

Natasha : hope nothing goes wrong and Riya should understand that Dilip uncle loves her a lot .

Divya : yes Natasha, Nothing should go wrong.

Andrew: well, all of you'll go and look into your works now. Enough of discussion.

Karthik: but still how can we leave this topic having a question mark?

Andrew: I told now, I'll look into this. You'll go and do your work.

All get back to their work while Riya spends whole day tearing up in the room.

When the lunch time came up, Aunt Divya goes to Riya's room in order to call her to have the lunch .

Divya : darling Riya , come dear will have the lunch .

Riya : is daddy there ?

Divya nods her head with silent.

Riya : I'll not come then

Divya : Riya are you still angry with Dilip ?

Riya: no, I don't have any anger on daddy but I feel guilty Di. (Riya embrace her aunt tightly with tears flowing). I have raised my voice and spoken against him. How can I do that? Don't I know to respect daddy. I have advised millions of people on how to respect parents but finally I spoke back to my daddy. I became rude. That moment I didn't realize what I'm doing. I feel guilty Di.

Divya removes the hug and raise Riya's face, by holding her cheeks, " you didn't do it purposely and you didn't do anything wrong my dear. You just told can't. That's not a big deal. Now come have the lunch . Will speak about this calmly later on my dear."

"Even now I'm saying, I can't go abroad leaving you'll but I feel bad for the way I spoke to daddy. "

"Fine honey will sort them out later now come down to have the lunch "

Riya, walk towards the dining room with aunt Divya. Riya directs her eye towards her daddy, who is eating peacefully.

"I'm sorry, "said Riya.

Everyone who were having their lunch looked at Riya. Some with puzzled face and few with a smile on their face. Natasha turned herself towards Dilip to see his reaction, but Dilip was having his lunch casually with no reaction. Riya apologized once again saying "I'm sorry daddy " , and then Dilip nods his head and point his hand towards the empty chair asking Riya to have her lunch, without uttering a word.

Riya sits on the chair and serve a very tiny portion. She glances at Karthik and then glance at the food again. Karthik gives a thumbs up to Riya making sure nobody noticed it. Riya completes her share quickly and stands from the chair

Rohini: Riya, so soon you got up. Serve more

Riya: not now please

Riya, walk towards her room.

Karthik and Swathi too walked behind Riya and entered to Riya's room having a sweet box in their hand.

Karthik: When my girl is moody and when lunch in spaghetti, all you need to give her is this. So bought this and kept even before you asking.

Swathi: So, have it madam. But how long you going to act like you love spaghetti? I'm done with this drama Riya

Riya: As long as I have my life with me. And remember not to break the promise, both of you'll shouldn't open your mouth saying I hate spaghetti. As always when they cook spaghetti bring my sweet portion to me.

Swathi: Why can't I be a good like you. By the way now you're Okay with going abroad?

Riya: no not at all.... I can't go anywhere but I can't reject daddy too. I'm stuck in between and that feel is ohhh can't explain though

Karthik: Riya look here, you will not go anywhere. I guarantee. Need not worry.

Riya: but Karthik, I can't talk back to daddy ....

Karthik: listen, you need not do anything but you'll not go anywhere. Dilip uncle will itself say you not to go.

Riya: but how?

Karthik Winks at Riya and leaves the room by giving her a courage

While all getting ready to have their dinner Mr Silvester a popular lawyer in the city steps into their house. Dilip warmly welcomes him as he was waiting for Mr Silvester.

Dilip : Silvester, good evening. come in take your seat .

Silvester: Thank you. Dilip I have an urgent work, if you don't Mind, can I finish this and leave soon?

Dilip : yes no issues in that Silvester.

Dilip ask Swathi to call Riya to the living room in order to meet Mr Silvester.

Riya: Good evening uncle

Silvester: Good evening. You are Riya, if I'm not wrong

Riya burst out in happiness as Mr Silvester recognized her.

"Yes, but how come you know me uncle?"

"Dear, you look exactly like your mom. Just the same. 20 years ago, I was seated in the same place and got your mom's signature to give you this property. Now getting your signature to hand it over to you back "

Riya gives a mixed reaction as she feels so emotional.

Silvester address Riya to sit but Riya waits until her daddy give permission to do it. Dilip nods his head and then Riya sits on the sofa.

Silvester: Your mother owns a building worth of 100 billion in Australia. When she was pregnant, she wrote it in your name. Even before you were born, she named you. She mentioned that you can use this property only when you turn 20. If in case you weren't alive, she mentioned to donate it for an orphanage. Okay dear you can sign now as I have told you everything clearly. You might know this before but my responsibility is to let you'll know again. And if you want to donate it you can.

Riya smiles and nod her head with some deep thinking.

Riya: just give me a minute uncle.

Riya moves from that place by excusing Mr Silvester. Riya walks towards her uncle Andrew and pull him from his hand to a room.

Andrew: yes, why dear?

Riya: Daddy has enough of wealth and after him I'm the one who is going to enjoy them all and even mom would like if I donate it to that same orphanage. Please ask daddy and say if he is okay with it. So, then I can proceed with donating.

Andrew smirks and rub Riya's hair while giving a call to Dilip . Dilip looking Andrew's call understands what would have happened. As soon as Dilip answer the call he give his response without talking further.

Dilip : Yeah I'm okay with it .

Andrew: I didn't even tell you anything yet

Dilip : What else would you ask for at this time ? I knew what you'll will be asking so I'm Okay with it.

Dilip hung up the call. Riya awaits in excitement to know her father's response and she becomes over whelmed with the positive response of him.

Riya again walks towards the sofa casually as nothing happened.

Riya: Uncle I was thinking for some time and what I feel is to donate it for the orphanage. Daddy is wealthy enough, so let the orphans enjoy this. I don't want this property.

Silvester smiles at Riya and says, "I know the purpose once you asked permission and left, yes it's a good decision I'm very happy even your daddy liked it but Riya you are a major now, you're above 18 you can take your own decision no need of asking others. But I'm very happy that both daughter and father liked to donate. "

Riya smirks and glance at the papers. "Where should I sign if I'm donating them?"

"Sign on these papers "

Riya sign on the given papers and turning towards Mr Silvester, "uncle I can take my own decisions but when my parents are there, I'll be forever listening to them as their decisions will be always the best. yes indeed, I'm not a kid but my decision will be their decision. Uncle might be think why I mentioned parents when I have only one parent. Even my aunts and uncles are my parents. "

Silvester : "I'm honestly very happy dear, have never met a such a darling girl. I guess you're the princess of this house."

Riya smirks again.

'' Mr Silvester, she is her Daddy's princess'' says mohan.

" Dilip my work is done then I'm leaving. I would love to stay for long but unfortunately got caught with a work."

Silvester and Dilip shake hands and Silvester leave the house while Dilip head towards his room.

Rohini: ughm, This daughters and daddy's fight's last only for seconds. See how our Riya was talking now. Daddy's decision is the best for her.

Riya: Ro, although I said that and I know his decision is the best, I'm praying that daddy must say not to go abroad. I'm not going to talk anything against to him but leaving you'll and going ,I don't know it's beyond my imagination. I pray that daddy's decision must change.

Riya's words make everyone feel emotional. She then sigh and walk into her room.
