The first pain of Love

Rajveer's pov

I opened my eyes slowly. Still I'm feeling so much pain in my head. It felt like someone just has banged my head roughly.

First thing i found my ma and papa standing infront of me with di and jiju with a scared face.

I turned my head at my left because i felt a soft presence beside me. There i saw her.

My cute angel, Myra.

She was also staring at me in fear and she has dried tear on her eyes lashes. The urge to kiss those tears away from her eye lashes grew inside me. At the same time my heart warmed with her presence.

"Veer, are you fine beta?"- my ma caressed my head by taking a position on my bed.

"Yeah...I'm okay...i don't know what happened to...me...."

"Dehydration and your sugar level fall.....how many times i told you to maintain your blood sugar level Rajveer....you are diabetic and diabetes at this young age is not a good sign...."- Baivab jiju told me.

I chuckled slightly.

"But jiju I'm trying hard to avoid the things which you prescribed me and taking the medicines everyday...."- i told him.

"If you were taking the medicines, then why did you faint huh?"- Finally my Mira spoke.

Her voice was shaking. She is upset.

Sometimes i think that I'm very much lucky to have such kind of lovely people around me. They all are special to me.

"Now take rest Rajveer...."- di said.

"But the party?"- i asked

"Party can wait....."- Mira glared at me.

I suppressed my smile.

Everyone walked away from my room. Myra was about to get down of the bed but i caught her wrist and pulled her. She fell on my chest.

"Raj, anyone can see...."- she whispered and struggled in my arms.

"So what? I was planning to tell ma papa about us....Don't you think that you should get married...."- i whispered.

Her face flushed. Her face covered with the most innocent smile. I kissed her forehead softly. She placed her head on my chest.

"Raj, i was scared when you fainted like that....please take care of your health...bhaiya was telling that diabetes is a silent killer"- her voice again shook in concern.

"Nobody can kill me, not even diabetes....do you know why? Because i always felt like that something so strong and powerful is protecting me......and it's your love...if something bad happened to me ever, your love will bring me back from any danger"

She covered my mouth with her palm.

"Don't say like that....you will be fine and will stay with me forever"

I kissed her head.

Suddenly Tuhin di entered and closed her eyes.

"Have shame you two....atleast you should wait till marriage"

Myra face palmed herself while i broke out in laughter.

"Now come downstairs, ma papa is asking for you"- Di said.

"But i thought everyone left"- i said.

"Everyone is waiting for their Yuvraj to wish him happy birthday....now come quick"- Di left after annoucing this.

Myra and I looked at each other being little bit confused.

Author's pov

Rajveer make his way to the party hall along with Myra. Everyone cheered happily after seeing him. He apologised to them. Finally he cut his cake. The hall surrounded with huge clapping sounds.

Almost all the reputed families are present in the party. Vansh Koshal is the present king and also he is a political personality. After him, Rajveer will take care of everything.

Vansh made the announcement that in future Rajveer is going to increase his fame. Everyone looked happy. Mira and Rajveer were exchanging looks continuously. Vasundhara noticed that and smiled. She was also having doubt on this matter for long. She has seen Rajveer's glowing smile whenever Mira was around.

Vasundhara went near Vansh and showed him Myra and Rajveer's eye contact. Vansh was also happy. What could be better than this if his son get married to another royal family of Chauhans. Already they are knotted a tie through Tuhin and Baivab.

"What do you say? Should i make the announcement?"- Vansh asked Vasundhara.

"This could be the best surprise for Rajveer"- Vasundhara said.

Vansh again went to the stage.

Pihu was serving the drinks to the guests but her eyes were only peeping on Rajveer. His smile, his eyes everything is creating so much happiness inside her. She just want to see him always like that. Whenever he was smiling, automatically a smile was covering on Pihu's lips.

"Stop ogling at him"

Pihu stared at Sameera who is her best friend.

"Rajababu ko kahi tumhari hi nazar na lag jayee"- Sameera teased her.

Pihu's face paled.

"Don't say like that...i don't want any bad omen around him....god keep him happy and healthy always"- She said by closing her eyes.

Sameera smiled.

"How can you love him that much? I mean it's impossible that he will ever notice you, then how can you love him without any expectation and hope?"- Sameera asked her.

"I don't know Sameera, i have no answers for this....i just know that i love him from my childhood...."

"Tell me onething, one day or the other Rajababu will get married, will you feel bad??? The same will happen to you....you also have to marry the person whom uncle will select for you....what will you do then?? Still you will love him, even after his marriage or yours???"

Pihu stared at Sameera in annoyance.

"Renu di send you na?? Why are you so adamant to shatter my dream world? I'm just 22 and I'm not ready for marriage and about Rajababu.....i just want to see him happy...no matter who will be the reason of his happiness....i won't mind if he marry a girl whom he loves......"

Pihu's sentence cut in midway as Vansh held the mic.

"Hello ladies and gentlemen...As you all know that today is my Rajveer's 29th birthday, so here I'm announcing another important part of his life....Soon He will get married"

Rajveer chocked on his drink. He stared at his father in shock. Did he chose a girl for him without asking him??

But he only loves Myra.

Rajveer stared at Myra whose face is also showing nervousness.

Vansh looked at Myra and smiled.

"Myra beti, can you come here?"

Myra's heart started to race while Rajveer's condition was also not different.

Myra slowly walked on the stage.

"Rajveer, should i invite you differently to come here?"- Vansh said with a broad smile.

Rajveer immediately went near him. He was puzzled but at the same time his heart is beating with a new emotion.

Vansh held both their hands and raised up.

"You both are getting married in the next month"

Rajveer and Myra stared at each other with a gasp. Tears poured into Myra's eyes. She keep her face down to hide those tears.

The tears of happiness. She never imagined that a surprise like that is waiting for her. Rajveer is her dream man. She has always dreamt a future with him. Today it's happening.

The hall surrounded with only claps and cheerings. Baivab and his family went to the stage and hugged Rajveer and Myra.

Rajveer was still in a daze. He was only looking at Mira. He loves her when he was just 15. She is so different from other girls. She is kind, she is sweet. His heart flattered with happiness. This is the best birthday gift of his life.

"Hey girl....bring the sweets here....."- Baivab called Pihu who was standing with a tray of sweets on her hand.

She was standing by lowering her head. The news of Rajababu's marriage was a shock for her. Few minutes back when Sameera was telling all this, she just ignored but now she felt the amount of pain which is something so new for her.

Rajababu's love always makes her happy. She was happy just by loving him but today when she heard the news of his marriage, it hurt her.

This is the first pain of her love.

She was gulping her tears with so much force while walking near the stage. Her legs were shaking and her inside was clenching.

When she reached near the stage, Baivab took a sweet and shoved into Rajveer's mouth.

"Chalo, ab Myra ko khilao...."- He said.

Rajveer smiled and he took a sweet from the plate and brings closer to Myra's mouth. Myra took that sweet with a shy smile.

Rajveer stared at the girl standing near him by holding the plate. He took out some money from his wallet.

"Take this....."

Pihu didn't looked at him. She slowly take the money and nodded her head.

Rajveer smiled and then he went beside Mira.

This time Pihu raised her head to see him.

"It's time for family photo ..."- Tuhin chirped.

The cameraman was ready to click the photo but he stared at Pihu in annoyance because she was still standing there.

"Hey maid.....why are you standing here?? Want more money?"- Baivab shout angrily.

Pihu's trance broke and her face turned red in embarrassment.

Rajveer stared at Baivab in shock and then he stared at the girl who is literally trembling and dying in shame after this scold.

"Don't talk to her like that Jiju....she did it by mistake....and they are not maids....they are maintaining the beauty of this mansion...everything is looking so beautiful here only because of them...."

Baivab's face turned red. Tuhin stared at Baivab in fear.

Rajveer stared at the young girl again.

"I'm sorry chutki....please don't mind"

Pihu felt goosebumps when he addressed her like that.

It was the dream where he was addressing her as chutki.

Is it just a coincidence??

"Pihu...."

Ranu shook her and her chain of thought broke.

"Pihu, baba is not well...."

"What?"

They both ran from there. Pihu and Renu's father Pandit Harilal has heart disease for so long. After entering the house they found their father lying in the bed unconscious and sweating constantly.

"Jiji, we need to take him to the hospital"- Pihu said in panick.

Within few minutes they both admitted their father in the local hospital. Their father has got a ministroke. Pihu and Renu both were crying by hugging each other. They have noone except him.

They both sat in the hospital waiting room. It was 4:00 in the morning, the doctor called them both.

"We need to perform a small surgery as soon as possible....deposit 30k within 48 hours"

They stared at each other in shock.

Renu sat in the floor being helpless. Pihu never looses her calm in difficult situation. She held Renu and make her stand.

"Jiji, we have to arrange the money....don't panick....we have a FD of 20k....we can break that and also we have around 2k in the house....the rest we will manage....don't panick....you wait here and I'm going to Sameera's house....may be Ramesh uncle can help us"

Pihu immediately walked towards Sameera's house. There is no auto at this time. It was still little dark outside.

Sameera lived beside their house.

She was near the mansion, suddenly she saw Rajababu standing in the middle of the road silently.

Pihu was shocked to see him here. Is he out for jogging? But he went to jogging around 5:30.

Then what is he doing here?

Pihu walked slowly. She was crossing him, suddenly he saw her.

"Excuse me...."

Pihu's heartbeat increased. Even in this emergency situation she felt goosebumps with his voice.

Pihu slowly turned her head at him. He is standing face to face of her. Pihu raised her eyes and looked at him.

His face is looking so dull and pale.

"Umm....actually...."- he was hesitating.

"Umm...."

Pihu was really shocked this time.

He ran his hand through his hair

.

"Can you help me?"- he asked her.

Her heart ached all of a sudden. His voice is so helpless.

"Ye...Yes..."- she said in a low voice.

But the thing he said next make her absolutely dumbstruck.

"Do you know where i live?? Or who i am?"
