Abhira's POV:-

In her room:-

Today I got saved by preeta maa from dadi taunts. And every one ate the kachori i served to them but they don't know that rajveer ji made it . I have disappointed rajveer ji . He woke up early today and saw the recipe in YouTube and cooked it in kitchen.

I just got scared yesterday when at the moment he had married me. I thought he and his family will not accept me and thought they may treat me badly but they not saying even a bad word for me . Maa and papa inturn started to consider me as their daughter.

And rajveer ji made me to feel comfortable yesterday and today he cooked for me . This family is so sweet. But they don't know about me and why I have married rajveer ji. They all deserve to know the truth about me and my past .

Today I will say truth to maa . I made up my mind and heart to reveal about my past . And stood from the sofa and started to towards the living hall. In living hall i couldn't see maa . There papa ji and chacha ji , dadaji were discussing something seriously, so I don't want to disturb them .

Then prachi bhabi came there with there cup of coffee and gave it to them. She came towards me.

"Abhira what are you doing here. Do you want something?", prachi bhabi asked me normally.

"No bhabhi, im just searching for maa ji ", i poliety said to bhabhi.

"Oo ! u are searching for maaji , maa ji will be in her room. She must be getting ready to go to office. You can go to her room abhira . Servants will show you maa Ji's room", bhabhi said with a question mark face .

"What ! office ? What job will maa do bhabhi?", i asked to bhabhi with curiosity.

" Abhira don't u know that maa and papa are IAS officers. She Will do her duty as a daughter in law of this house and even as an IAS officer too", bhabhi said proudly.

Later she showed be maaji room and I was standing out side of her room in a hesitation. I could see maa ji arranging her files and going through them . I was looking at her from the outside of her room where doors were  open .

I thought to go back as maa is busy in her work ,before I could leave from there maaji stopped me and called me to come inside.

"Abhira beta, what are you doing their , come inside. I know that you want to share something with me. U can share and say anything with me but don't say thank you for the breakfast issue ", said maaji , with a simle on her face.

"But maa.., ", was going to say but maa ji stopped me.

"Abhira if u want to say thank you to me then I will think that you just consider Me as a stranger. If you consider me as a stranger then say thank you to me ", maaji said, by placing her hand on my chin.

Before I could say anything I noticed the photo frame on the wall start to tilt. Instinctively, Maaji and I both rushed towards it. I managed to catch the frame just in time, and Maaji steadied me, helping to balance the frame back in place. As I gazed at the family photos inside, my eyes welled up with tears. Rajveer, Maaji, Papaji, Dadaji, Dadiji, Rudransh, and everyone else looked so happy and complete. The ache of missing my own family grew stronger in my chest.

Maaji, noticing my tears, gently asked, "Beta, are you okay? Is everything alright?"

I wanted to divert the conversation, to avoid the pain of speaking about my past, but Maaji's concern was unwavering. "Tell me about your family, Abhira," she insisted softly but firmly.

"I wanted to ask you about your family from yesterday but couldn't. Now I got the time. Please tell me about your family,beta . I know that you lost your mother but what's about your family and other ?", maaji asked me by placing her hand on my cheeks.

I shook my head, trying to avoid her gaze. "It's nothing, Maaji. Please don't worry."

Just then, Rudransh and Riya walked into the room. They saw my distressed state and immediately joined Maaji in her concern. "What happened, Abhira? Why are you crying?" Rudransh asked, his voice filled with genuine worry.

"Abhira please share your feelings with us . We are not strangers anymore. We are a family", riya said , by holding my hand gently and maaji sat beside me

With their pleading eyes fixed on me and the pressure of their concern weighing heavily, I felt a lump in my throat. I took a deep breath, knowing there was no way out. "My parents... they're dead," I whispered, my voice breaking. "My mother died just five months ago, and my father passed away before I was born."

"I don't even know my father face. For me my mother is my father. But I don't know how will be the father love. When I was going to school in my childhood all of my friends were used to come with their fathers but I used to come with my mother. And my paternal grandfather used to drop me at school but he died when I was 7 years old. My paternal uncle and aunty used to hate my mother, brother and me. Only my grandmother used to love us . All of my friends used to ask about my father and they used to laugh at me. All of my neighbour aunties used ask about my father name to my mother. Some of them used to taunt her saying that I'm illigement child .But my mother used to be strong and loved me very much. But now I lost my mother. I miss my dadi", i said to them tears streaming from my eyes.

I could see Maaji's eyes soften with understanding and maternal concern. She reached out and enveloped me in a motherly hug. It was a gesture I hadn't felt in so long, and it broke something open inside me. I let the tears flow freely, feeling the warmth of her embrace.

"Abhira beta don't cry . We are there for u. I accepted you as my daughter when you came here by marrying rajveer. From today I'm your mother and Aryan ji is your father. We all are family beta," maaji said by holding my hands gently but firmly.

Rudransh spoke up, his voice gentle, "Abhira, we had no idea you were carrying such a heavy burden. We're here for you now. You don't have to go through this alone".

"Haa Abhira we are with you. But I can't imagine that how could feel when all of your friends asked about your father and when they used make fun of u and ur mother ", riya asked me , anger in her tone.

"I used to stay calm riya , i used to run away from there. I don't know what to answer then..", i was continuing my words but papaji interrupted in middle,  saying that

"If anyone ask about your father then say that your father name is Aryan Singh rajvanshi and proudly say that you are my daughter, abhira. You are not only a daughter in law of this house beta, you are a daughter for me .

  I consider you more than rajveer, aliya and rudra. You are my first priority beta. If anyone talked rudely with you then come to me and, i will make sure that they will never speak a word against you, i promise you beta ", papaji said by gently placing his hand on my head

I couldn't control my emotions and suddenly I hugged papaji in happiness. I was crying uncontrollably by hugging Papa. Maaji , rudra and riya joined with us for a group hug. And after completing I was broken by hug with papaji.

I could express my happiness now . Now I can proudly to everyone that I have a father and a big family now.

I approached near maaji to say that the kachori was made by rajveer ji and I don't know cooking.

"Maaji kachori which was you all ate at morning.....", i continued but maaji interepted by saying " was cooked by rajveer. You are trying to say this only na. I know beta that rajveer cooked it and I saw rajveer when he was escaping from the window in kitchen. I know that beta . Don't worry I will teach you how to cook", maaji said leaving me,papaji, rudransh and riya in shock.

"Rajveer cooked those kachori instead of abhira?", papaji asked to maaji , in shock which was visible in his face. And after maaji nodded her head as symbol of yes.
