Chapter 1 : Her Life

LIFE

Life is the beautiful gift of god. It is unpredictable. It is cruel for some while beautiful for others. What happens in our life is already written in our destiny by the almighty, we can't change anything. Life may give us much pain but at the end of the day it has something better, something gud stored for us.....

UDAIPUR . 

MEHTA HOUSE :

TIME : 8:07AM

In a beautiful small house , the sunrays peeped in through the big window of a not so big but beautiful and well arranged room as a beautiful lady clad in a decent saree pulls the shiny white and pink curtains off. The walls of the room were white and pink with a beautiful wallpaper behind the headrest of a beautiful bed with pink cushions and white pillows. The room was decorated with flower vases and showpieces all around. It was well arranged, clean and just perfect. It had a beautiful balcony attached to it with small potted flower plants and climbing money plants ,decorating the railings....

A cozy sofa with cushions on one side while a beautiful swing and cushions at the other with lots of white curtains surrounding them making it perfect for a peaceful "me" or "us" time.

Everything in that balcony was pure white...making it serene......Everything in the room and balcony was handmade and decorative bcoz their owner loves creation and decorations.....

The lady was trying to wake someone up who was sleeping like a "kumbhkaran" wrapped with duvet from head to toe hugging a cushion. Suddenly the alarm began to ring ; the person stirrs but didn't woke up.

"Bachcha !! Get up na. It's 8 already , u will get late for the college" that lady spoke trying to wake her daughter up...

The person finally woke up lazily ,and removed the duvet from her face slowly.....

Wow!! Her face was as beautiful and innocent as an angel!!!

She was the epitome of beauty with big doe shaped beautiful dark brown eyes and long auburn hairs which were slightly curled, milkish white complexion ; small cute nose with a silver nose ring ; pink cupid bow's shaped lips with a hot mole above it adorning a cute pout. Her face has all the purity and innocence. She was cute yet hot at the same time. 

Any boy could easily fall for her. ......

She yawns cutely; rubbing her beautiful eyes and stretches her arms. She murmurs something annoyingly, the lady sitting beside her chuckles. 

"Good morning maa!!" She hugged her mother wishing her...

"Good morning Avni Bachcha!! Now go and get freshen up otherwise u will get late" her mother Neela spoke caressing her hairs...

Yes, that girl was our female protagonist Avni Ayesha and that lady was Neela Mehta Avni's mother….

Avni smiles and nods. Neela Maa left from there….

She recites some prayers and smiles beautifully before lazily getting up from bed and going to the washroom.

She goes downstairs after 20 mins wishes her dad and got to know that her sister-in-law was still sleeping like always . She sighs, makes breakfast and serves it to everyone. After breakfast, she washes the dishes , cleans the kitchen and goes back to her room. She cleans her room too as she doesn't like untidiness and dirt. 

After that She went to the washroom hurriedly as she was getting late for the college. After 20 mins she came out wearing a casual outfit for her college….

She combs her hair which reaches upto her waist , applies only some lip gloss as she doesn't like makeup. She loves being simple and real, not fake or showing off her beauty. She was looking beautiful like always…. 

She picked her bag and goes downstairs, prays to God; bid bye to everyone and was about to go when her brother proposes to drop her . She smiled at her bro and nodded. Her bhabhi finally woke up and taunted her again for something. ..... She rolls her eyes, ignores her taunt and leaves for college.....

-------------------------------------------------------------

AT THE COLLEGE 

TIME : 9:55AM 

She bid bye to her bro entering the college. She was a nerd but still some boys like her and some girls were jealous of her beauty and intelligence. Being the topper of the college she was always into her books. She doesn't have many friends as she was an introvert and kind of boring , still she has a friend , Kavya Dixit, Kavya loves her a lot, she stands by her friend's side in every thick and thin .....

She was searching for Kavya when suddenly someone came from behind and shouted in her ear. She became frustrated and closed her ears with her hands. 

"Ahh!! Kavya are u mad or what . Oh my poor ears!!!" Avni yelled irritated at her friend...

Kavya laughs, making her more angry.

"Now can u plzz stop laughing " Avni said rolling her eyes..  

"Ok baby sorry.....Plz forgive me na Avu", Kavya apologized, making her smile….

"It's ok but dare you do it again" Avni warned showing her punch to Kavya..  

"Ok baba , now let's go to the class" Kavya said, dragging her to the class….

They went to their class and attended their lectures. At the break, they visited the canteen, where some girls were sitting wearing revealing clothes with high financial status ,lots of makeup and money but with no brain at all. They started to taunt Avni about her dressing sense, about her simplicity, about her financial status, about her being nerd, about her being an introvert and what not. They were jealous of Avni.....

" Guys!!! Look who is here. The great Avni Ayesha, the topper. Btw what are you eating." Said a girl...

" Oh come on Tanya !! What will she eat? Of course she must be having burgers , you know she can't afford any other food....."taunted the other one….

"Aww Poor girl!!! Don't worry Avni we can buy you food so that you can be able to taste it once. We'll do it as a charity , our heart is very big you know" said the third one with a smirk...

The girls laughed. Kavya was boiling with anger whereas Avni was calm; she knew , it was their daily drama.

"Shut up Mithali. She isn't saying anything that doesn't mean you can say whatever you want. Listen you......" Kavya spoke, unable to take their nonsense any further.  

"Kavya!! Calm down!! You know na ,it's one of their daily routine. Just ignore them, we're getting late." Avni interrupted Kavya, not wanting to create a scene….

"But Avni how can they....." Kavya tried to argue...

"Kavya!!!!..." Avni glared at her….

" Ok fine but this is the last time. Let's go", Kavya said, warning those girls….

" Yeah, Kavya go, ur friend is right bcoz she knows we are right. But wait!! I wanna give you a free advice… 

Stop wandering with this so-called friend of yours , who has no status, no class ,nothing . Just look around u and find someone according to ur status girl ,after all u deserves better." Mitali spoke only to raise Kavya's temper more....

" You know what Mithali !!! Friendship sees ur heart not ur status and class. But you will never get to know that after all ,how will u get ur "chamchis" then. Avni is far better than you all and I want to be with her only. Btw it's not like she can't afford expensive food but she chooses not to waste money unnecessarily like you all......And yeah 1 more thing you can't even compare yourself with her because she is intelligent unlike you." Said Kavya giving it back to them...

" What are you trying to say haa??" Am I not intelligent??? Am more intelligent than Avni." said Mitali angrily...

"Huh really? Ok, then let's have a quiz between u both" Kavya challenged...

"Kavya plzz leave it na" Avni spoke trying to let the matter go...

"No Avni 1 min." But Kavya was adamant..

" What!! Are you mad?? Mitali shouted with disbelief….

" Why? what happened ?? U got scared that u will lose". Kavya tried to infuriate Mitali ..

" Mithali Malhotra never loses . challenge accepted. " spoke an over confident Mitali...

" Ok then let's see. ..." Kavya was confident too...

Kavya asked 10 questions to both of them from Google, among which Mithali was able to answer only 3 whereas Avni answered 9.

" Yay!! So Avni is the winner. Oops!! what happened to "Mithali Malhotra never loses " next time na don't dare to mess with us" Kavya said sarcastically along with a victory smirk...

Mithali fumes and leaves the place immediately. Kavya laughs uncontrollably while Avni gives a fake smile.

" What happened Avu?? Why are you looking sad??" asked a concerned Kavya….

" Sad?? And me?? No...no....." Avni said smiling forcefully….

" Don't lie Avni , when you don't know how to, I know you in and out, Now tell me what happened??" Ordered Kavya...

" Kavya, I think they are right ,u shouldn't be with me bcoz I am not of your status..... u know. ..." Avni said tears , brimmed in her eyes….

" Stop it Avni !! Youknow ,I'm not like them . How can you even think that!! for me our friendship matters the most not our status. You know it too, very well." Kavya was angry...

" Ok baba sorry " Avni apologized cutely holding her ears which melted Kavya instantly….

" Ok but never say this again .Promise me" Kavya demanded….

Avni nodded and hugged Kavya tightly with tears in her eyes, she was feeling blessed to have her. They broke the hug and rushed to their classes again...

After college, Avni was about to leave for home, when she saw some little poor childrens begging for food , but no one was paying any heed to them. She goes to them and brings them all to a nearby restaurant....

-------------------------------------------------------------

AT THE RESTAURANT 

TIME 4:05PM

She made them sit and asked them what they would want to have and went for placing the order. .....

After placing their order, she came back but what she saw boiled her blood....

A rich and arrogant lady and the manager of the restaurant were insulting the children and the kids weŕe crying......

"How can u even let them enter your restaurant haa???? Just look at them ....ewww...... they doesn't deserve to sit with us.....and just think once from where they got the money to pay for the food.....I'm sure they must have came here to steal ....Bloody b******!!!! How dare you to steal my favourite locket haa? Wait!!! Let me call the police ," Said that lady accusing the children of stealing her locket….

" Mam!!!! Please calm down! !! Don't call the police....it's about our restaurant's reputation. …I'll see them all......Tell me, where have you hidden Mam's locket, tell otherwise I'll beat the hell outta you all today", He was about to slap them but someone grabs his hand and jerks them......

It was of course our Avni .....

" Dare u raise ur hands on them.....I will complain to the police then......" Avni warned , her eyes blazing with anger...

" Ms.!! You don't even know what they have done, they have stolen Mam's diamond locket", The manager said to Avni politely….

" I know everything….and how can you say it, so confidently that these innocent kids has stolen her locket?......just bcoz they arer poor?.....I think u should thank God that he gave you everything unlike these kids .....just think once if you were in their place then?...if you were this much poor and someone behaved with you like the way you are behaving with them with no fault of them then?", Avni said while the manager was now ashamed of his act….

Anyways !! Forget that!! I think we should find the locket first .....it must be here only......

You can call the police later , but for now, let's find it at least", Avni said and started searching for the locket

" Hey u !!! Why are you interfering in our matter haa!!! Just stay away it's between us....!!" That lady was furious on Avni...

"It's not between you all, it's related to me also.....in fact its related to all of us....who are enjoying the scene here and doing nothing to help, and why will they? It's nothing related to them, so why will they take a stand for these innocent kids, and invite problems in their life", said Avni looking angrily at the audience there...

Btw I'm the one who brought them here....so it's related to me too. ...

"Anyways let's don't waste the time and start to find the locket plzzz...." Said Avni turning back to find the locket...

" Mam!!! I think she is right....we should try to at least find the locket here", said the Manager and started to find the locket too...

Everyone felt ashamed of themselves after hearing Avni's words, so they too started to search for the locket.....

Everyone tried finding the locket a lot but the locket was nowhere to be found. ....

" So Miss!! What happened? Where is the locket? found it?.....I told you right that they stole it.....but you started ur lecture now what will you say haa...." that lady said smirking….

"Look you try to understand please.....ermmm.....I think we should check one more time, it must be here only", Avni spoke trying to convince that lady to let them try for one last time.. 

"O please! !! Shut up!!!! Do you think I'm a fool or what? Why are you wasting everyone's time here….look you , stop all this...and let me handle", that lady was blabbering her nonsense, but got cut off by someone...

Someone has found the locket.....She was shocked and disappointed....while Avni sighs in relief and the kids smiles. ....

"This locket ... it's..it's mine", that lady spoke astonished...

" I told u na.....that they didn't stole......before accusing someone.....plz check once....and haa just bcoz they are poor that doesn't mean that you can say and do anything with them. .....don't be so judgemental.....try to understand other's pov too.....try to spread love not negativity....." Avni tried to put some sense in her brain...

"Now you can say Sorry....and you too should say sorry manager ji…", Avni demanded...

" I am so Sorry mam...." Manager apologized, bowing his head down….

" Not to me....to them....!!" Avni said pointing at the kids...

Manager apologized .... Kids smiled at him. Avni asked the manager to serve their order and that she will pay the bill....She raises her eyebrows at the lady....

"What now??? You already wasted my time. .... I'm getting late. ...." That lady tried to escape...

She was about to go but Avni came on her way blocking her......

"I said , say sorry to them....." Ordered Avni...

" Are you mad??? Sorry? And me? That too to them....no way...." That lady made a face...

"Ok fine!!! Don't say it…. The police whom you were threatening to call I guess we will have to call them now….so that they can arrest you for torturing these kids....." Avni threatened….

"Won't you people say anything even now", She asked the people around...

"Look Madam ji! ! You'll have to apologize...... otherwise we won't let you go", a person spoke...

" Yes!! Yess!! say sorry  ....." Everyone there demanded….

She tried to escape but Avni didn't let her......She was fuming. ...Avni smirks. .....

"Sorry. ....", That lady whispered arrogantly, having no other option...

"What? ? ? We can't hear, .....plzz say a bit loudly", Avni said pretending...

"Sorry. ..."  The lady spoke a bit loudly...

" Again!!! Didn't you had your meal today?....." Avni said infuriating her….

" I'M SORRY. ...." That lady shouted glaring at Avni….

" So kids....what do you all say? ....do you all forgive her?....." Avni asked the kids..

"Hmm...." The kids replied smiling at her...

"Look!! That's the difference in you and these children despite being poor they have a golden heart.....but you….you are a stone hearted person with lots of bank balance......you insulted them a lot but still they forgave you. .....it shows the difference.....and next time na, Do remember this scene before doing this again to anyone…..Goodbye…. Not really nice to meet you….", With that Avni left with swag along with kids....

The lady fumes and swore to take revenge from Avni......

While the audience was impressed with her, among them ,there was someone, who got flat over her.....

Avni and the kids again sat on their place and ordered their food....The kids were scared and hesitant to be there and eat at first but she assured them and they ate....

" I can't believe it!! How can she behave like that And these people also did nothing....uffff!!! Don't know ,when will these people and their mentality change......I really feel pity for people like them...." Avni thought….

They finished their food and left the restaurant....She gave them some money.....and hugged them, kneeling down to reach their level.....

" Didi !!! You are very good..."Kids praised her…

" You all are also very good …… Do not let anyone take advantage of your innocence…always take stand for yourself haa...And yes don't pay much attention to what others say....just ignore them. .....they don't deserve your attention. ....The more you listen to them, the more you will hear from them .....so ignoooore......Like the way I do ..... " She said and stood up, patting their cheeks

They smiled and nodded and bid bye to her. .....

Avni was about to call a rickshaw. ...She checks her bag and realises.....She spent all the money....She smiled and started to walk towards her home as she doesn't have money for a rickshaw......

Again Mithali and her friends saw her and started to laugh and taunt her , that she doesn't even have money for a rickshaw......and they can give her lift .....poor Avni.....blah ....blah....blah....

And as usual Avni ignored them and headed to her home.....

Yes, she spent all the money on those poor kids but she was more than happy about it...she gets peace in helping others...she helps them by any means if she can and btw those were her money, she earned them with her hard work....she works as a designer for a small company. .....she designs clothes in her free time. ....she don't have to go out for this work. ...which is obviously not allowed and the credit goes to the one and only Samaira. ...her bhabhi....who filled Aman's (her bro) ear against her going out for any work alone other than college.....hence he restricted her going anywhere. .....he also didn't let her go to the college alone.....he drops her daily but unable to pick her up bcoz of his work and allowed her to come home directly at her own.....that's why she was working from home and getting paid less than she deserves....when she completes her designs she calls at the office and someone comes to take the designs. .....but she was still happy bcoz she wants to be self dependent.....she doesn't want to ask for money for her needs to others even if it's her papa or bhai ( even if its related to her studies also....she doesn't take money from them....) especially, when she had such a sweet and caring bhabhi (rolls eyes)., still Samaira always taunts her about money.....she even tries to destroy her designs.....to destroy her hard work. ....to break her heart....she shows to the world, that she loves Avni alot ,she cares for her and want her betterment only even Neela Maa believes that but only Avni know how much she loves her and cares for her (again rolls eyes)......she ignores everything bcoz she loves her brother too much. ....and her brother loves Samaira too much and believes her blindly.......and also she wants peace in her house not any drama like Samaira always create unnecessarily. .....

She spent more than half of her salary tthat day which she got only a day before with much pleading and difficulty as her boss too was a jerk and a greedy man.....and that was the starting of the month......now she had to adjust with the left money for the whole month....No!! She will never ask for money from anyone.....she has her self respect .... and also she doesn't want to get taunted again by Samaira for money. ....

On her way back home, she saw a poor woman was burning wòod , for making food ... she panicked, fear engulfed her, she started sweating and clutched her locket tightly....She got some flashes....she closed her ears with her hands and screamed....

" Please Get away from it , Something will happen to you, " said a panicking Avni...

She pulled the woman away from the fire...the woman was confused........

" Hey dear , this is our daily job beta, nothing will happen", that woman said chuckling at her….

Avni realises everything, she apologises and runs from there hurriedly , clutching her locket....

" Such a strange girl !! She was scared of such lil fire ... Today's girls are very delicate", that woman said nodding her head negatively…..

-------------------------------------------------------------

MEHTA HOUSE 

TIME : 5:56PM

Avni reached home after college. She sighs....wipes her sweat and calms herself..... Aarav (Avni's nephew) saw her and came running to her. She kneels down to his level and hugs him.....

"Here comes the Queen of this house. Everyone's favourite, even my son is her fan. O God, don't know when I will get rid of her. No one will ask her where she was wandering till now , why she got so late…Mummy ji rejects every alliance that came for her marriage saying it's not her age for marriage and she is still studying, my mom had sent such a nice alliance for her but she rejected that too. O God !! seems like I have to do something about it...... I will talk to Aman about it and convince him for the very first alliance that will come hereafter. " Samaira thought...

" Thank God bua!! You came back , I missed u alot. And how did you got late today..... You know I haven't seen you for 19 hours ,can you imagine that 19 hours!!!!! I woke up late in the morning as I didn't had school today but that time you already left." Aarav pouted cutely...

"Awww!! Missed you too my cutie pie " Avni said pulling his cheeks...

" Go and freshen up first. You both can talk later. " Said Neela Maa smiling at them...

" Ok maa!! Oops, I have to go , will be back in 5 mins." Avni said, pinching his nose...

She kisses his cheeks and was about to go when Aarav clears his throat. She stops and raises her eyebrows at him.

" Don't u think you are forgetting something???" Aarav asked, narrowing his eyes….

 "I don't think so"pretended Avni...

" Really???" Aarav folded his arms to his chest….

" Yeah " said Avni innocently.. 

" Arrrgh!!!! Ok let me ask you clearly. Where are my chocolates bua???" Irritated with her Aarav finally came to the point…..

" Hahaha I knew that , 1 min. " She laughed.

She pretends to search in her bag and looks up with a sad face. 

"Sorry yaar forgot to bring it today " Avni said with a sad pout…

 " What??? How can you do this to me? I will never talk to you huh!!" He turns his face away from her showing his anger….

 Avni smiles and shows him chocolates which she was hiding till now. Aarav became happy and started to snatch it from her but Avni started to run. Aarav was chasing her in the whole house.

Samaira fumes in jealousy and yells at Aarav......

She doesn't want Aarav to love Avni. She doesn't like their bonding. Of course, she was jealous of Avni. .....

"Aarav go back to your room and complete your homework now.... And Avni you....... when will u grow up ha.....don't you have any responsibility. Such a careless girl you are......and btw why have you come so late… Where were you till now, your college gets over at 4 o'clock right?...." Samira asked sternly….

" Yeah bhabhi! !......ermmmm…....actually. .......yess.....I....I.....got stuck with some work, that's why I got late...." Avni lied…

" Yes .... Yes .... I know all your work and all....Btw you should have informed me that you will get late na...." Samaira inquired again...

"Actually bhabhi! !!! I had informed maa about it...." Avni answered...

" Yes !!! Beta she had informed me that she will get late.....but I forgot to tell u...." Neela Maa came to Avni's rescue...

"Ok!!!But why are you looking so tired?… .. and why are you sweating so much?…Where are you coming from???", Samaira was doubtful...

"No…. I am coming from college only…. Actually I ran out of money , so, I didn't had money to do a rickshaw…so I have to come all the way by foot, that's why I am a little tired .. ... " Avni answered her another question.,.

" What? ? ? R u serious! !!! What do you mean by you ran out of money haa??? Where have you spent all the money, you always run out of money ...... what do you even do with so much money? ..... of course, I know very well , all your extra work and running out of money problem , look Avni, Aman earns money after a lot of hard work......Stop wasting your brother's money on useless stuff…. Oh please have some pity for him…

… ” Samaira yelled at her..

She very well knew that Avni never takes money from Aman and it was her money which she always spends....but still she always taunts her saying that she was wasting Aman's hard earned money and all....She always judges her and doubts her that Avni was having affairs and all....

" Sorry bhabhi! It won't happen from next time", Avni said tired of Samaira's questions and accusations….

 "O really! ! ! Ok fine but I know it will happen again, you will spend all the money......have some responsibilities Avni ......don't be so careless. ….you're not a kid anymore…. I got married at your age and look at you, you are still acting like a kid….", Samaira taunted again….

Avni ignores her comment, gives Aarav his chocolates and In turn he kisses her cheeks. But before going, Samaira signalled something to Aarav. He smiled and came back to Avni....."

" Bua!! Can you plz help me out with my project. Mamma is unable to do that." Aarav asked innocently...

Hearing that, Samaira gritted her teeth and yells at Aarav bcoz she thinks she can do anything.......and she was no less than Avni in anything whether it was studies, household works or something else..She,herself, didn't admitted that she was unable to help her son without Avni's help ..but it's not true......she can't do anything without Avni's help not even help her son in his homework. ......That's why when Aarav said that she felt insulted and yelled at Aarav.... 

"Of course dear.......I will help you. ......." Avni assured him...

" Thank you bua!! You are the best and I love you...."Aarav said happily ..

" I know I'm the best ,now go and complete your homework" Avni said raising her imaginary collars….

Aarav rolled his eyes and went. 

Avni didn't told anything about the restaurant incident to Samaira bcoz Samaira will be more angry hearing that bcoz she thinks helping the needy is just a waste of money and they do not have enough money to waste on charity.....

Uffff!!!!! Again people and their mentality will never change......she sighs ......and got freshen up and gave tuition classes to some poor childrens without any fees bcoz she doesn't want money but blessings...Samaira didn't like her tuition classes too......she always creates a scene about it while Avni ignores. .....

Then Avni again does the household chores as Samaira again faked her drama of being sick and tired, and was actually busy on a call from her mom, like always.....

After the dinner,

Avni was making some designs in her room ,when Neela Maa came with hair oil, asked her to sit and started to massage her hair. She closed her eyes as she was feeling like she was in heaven. They were gossiping about random topics. She told Neela Maa about the restaurant incident bcoz she never hides anything from her not even a tiny winy thing, she shares everything with her, (she do shared about Samaira with her sometimes but Neela Maa denied and made her understand that it's nothing like what she thinks....Neela Maa too believes Samaira blindly......but Samaira was not what she showed to others, a sweet and caring person, a loving sis-in-law, a perfect daughter-in-law and wife.....only Avni knew her truth......that how fake she was!!!! She stopped saying about it to Neela Maa too....bcoz Neela Maa too doesn't believe her.... ....sighs....It's not like she hates her or does not like her, of course , she loves her, she was her bhabhi, her brother's love, her Aarav's mother how will she not love her..... it's just that she feels weird about her rude behaviour towards her.....she feels that Samaira doesn't like her and want to get rid off her. .....she feels unwanted by Samaira. ....(which is actually true..).....she was scared what if she makes her fall in everyone's eyes, which she always tries to......what if she convinces her family about her marriage. ......she doesn't want to marry.....at least not now...not this much early....)......And also she doesn't want that they got to know from any outsider and feel bad that she didn't tell them first and there must be some of her fault too that's why she hid it from them.....and her bhabhi to get the chance to accuse her and create a drama unnecessarily and try to make her bad and irresponsible and fall in everyone's eyes ,especially Aman. ....

Hearing the restaurant incident, Neela Maa felt proud of her and hugged her lovingly......

"You know Raj uncle our neighbour??" Neela Maa asked.. 

" Hmm" Avni hummed

" It's his son's wedding day after tomorrow and he has invited all of us and you have to come with us too" Neela Maa ordered.. 

"But Maa..." Avni tried to argue...

" No ifs and buts this time, you have to come with us. No argument on that" Neela Maa said, cutting her off...

Avni sighs and agreed reluctantly, 

After the massage, she kept her head on Neela Maa's lap.

She was a very silent and serious type of girl but she becomes all childish with only her Mother and Aarav.

Neela Maa kissed her forehead,asked her to sleep, wished her a good night and left the room.

Avni with her 1000volt smile got up, cleans her room, makes her bed, she studied for some time and goes to balcony and talks with the night sky for some time......

It's her habit to talk to the night sky before going to bed.......she get her inspirations from the stars and moon...to at least try to make everyone smile.....to at least try to soothe them......to at least try to understand and solve their problems. .....to at least try to give them relief from pain......to at least try to spread love and happiness and peace. .....she thinks that despite being surrounded by the dark, the star, still shines and tries to light everyone's life and never loses its smile, its shine ,and they are somewhat successful in this job of theirs too, and the moon,well, despite being alone itself still it is always there with us in our loneliness .....despite having so much scars internally still is flawless and beautiful making everyone's life beautiful soothing their soul and giving peace....

In short, both the stars and the moon may be the reason for someone's smile, someone's life, someone's happiness, someone's peace and most importantly they may be the true companion in someone's loneliness.....

They inspired her to always try to light everyone's life and make them smile without losing their own smile..... despite having flaws always try to be flawless.......

She smiles and caresses the handmade wind chime hung on her balcony door...she loves wind chimes and dream catchers a lot as they gives positive vibes...she had hung them in every room every corner of her house.....she had a handmade dreamcatcher hung behind her bed above her head in her house.....

She loves the sound of wind chimes and gets peace from dream catchers...she believes that she will get gud dreams if she hangs them in her room...she believes in crafted and hand made stuff....for decorations......

She goes to bed, prays to God, to keep everyone in this world happy and safe and self dependent , she kisses her locket ....

She thinks it to be her lucky charm and she never removed it from her neck she always wears it.....as it was the last gift of someone very close to her..she opens the locket and caresses the pic in it....she misses that person a lot but nothing can be done to bring them back.....the locket always gives her strength......She sighs and hugs her favourite cushion which has her family photo printed on it and drifted into the world of dreams.....

-------------------------------------------------------------

UDAIPUR 

MEHTA HOUSE 

TIME : 03:15 AM

Avni woke up panting heavily....she was completely drenched in sweat.....

Yes , she again got that nightmare....the nightmare which haunts her daily since her childhood.... she clutches her locket and opens it, caressing the pic in it....

" When will these nightmares stop haunting me....those events always haunt me when you left me for forever....I'm fed up with everything….I can't do it anymore...You are my only strength , why did you left me alone in this world.... why?..take me too with u plzzz..."

Avni pleaded with tears in her eyes...

She cried and then calms herself down and tried to smile again....she got freshen up, went to swing and started to study sitting on the swing as she knew she will not be able to sleep after that nightmare, so she utilises her that time in her studies...she believes that time was best to study as everyone was busy in sleeping and no one will disturb her....she can focus on it completely distracting herself from her nightmare.....at around 4:15 she performs her morning prayer and again went to study.....

Later,like always, at around 6am or so....she felt sleepy and went back to her bed keeping her books on the table and slept hugging her cushion. ....
