"So, did they..say that they won't send you to India?" Asked Lily. "I...didn't you hear everything they said!? I...why are they doing this to me?! Why isn't mom trying to protect me? I...I can die at the very least! Why the hell, am I receiving so much pain from my own parents!?" Exclaimed Disha in anger.
"I..I am sorry Disha! I would have adopted you but...I am too poor for that. I shouldn't have told you to ask them in the first place. I am sorry." Said Lily, in a low voice. "You don't need to apologise, mam. I...it's my fault...I shouldn't have tried to ask them in the first place." Said Disha.
"Well, now that they have rejected your proposal... shouldn't you write a letter...to..your friends? I mean...Digraj and Ayan, right? They must be waiting for you, right? So..shouldn't you atleast write a letter to them? If..you write a letter for them..then I'll definitely post it for you." Said Lily.
"Yo..you can do that? But..won't dad be angry, after seeing the letter?" Asked Disha, while she wiped away her tears. "You don't have to worry about that. As your babysitter, this is the only favor, I can do for you." Said Lily.
"Okay then! I..I'll write a letter to them! But make sure that you post it on the right address, mam!" Said Disha, excitedly. It was the first time, Lily had seen Disha smiling so happily. If Lily was Disha's mother, she would probably have done anything possible to keep Disha happy, but unfortunately, fate doesn't always supports everyone.
Disha wrote the letter and gave it to Lily. Even Lily didn't know what was written in the letter, since Disha strictly told her to, not open it. Lily also nearly got caught by Riya, while she was on her way to the post office, but she somehow managed to lie infront of her. That was the first time she lied, but she had to do it, for Disha's sake.
Disha was really happy to see that her letter was posted, she always stayed happy and even dealt with all of the abuse, happily. But since, she didn't receive a reply, she was not sure if her letter reached to her friends. And since the world works on hope, she also calmed herself, by thinking that the letter must have reached India.
Time passed by, with Disha waiting for a reply from her friends, but apparently, she didn't receive any reply or any letter from India.
10 years later....Disha became an actress. Even though, her parents were against it, she still chose her passion over her parent's silly expectations.
"I told you that I didn't force your husband to cheat on you, didn't I!? How..how can you blame me without having any proof!?" Exclaimed, the woman. As soon as she said the woman said this, Disha slapped her tightly, on her face. "Who told you that I don't have proof!? I...I have recordings, videos and even photos! How dare you shout at me, after what you have done!?" Exclaimed Disha.
"Cut! You both did really good! Disha, I was not hoping to see, such a good performance by you! I thought that all of the hype and news about you, were madeup because of your rich background! But it seems like, whatever I thought about you was wrong. You're actually the best actress in India!" Exclaimed the director, happily.
Disha apologised to the woman, whom she slapped and turned towards the director. "Thanks, director. But..I don't need your appreciation, what I actually need, is a break. So, can I just go in my vanity van, already?" Asked Disha, sarcastically.
"Of..ofcourse! Yo..you can go! Why are you asking me? You should just go and rest for sometime! We'll resume the shoot after an hour." Said the director, nervously.
Disha went into her vanity after talking with the director. "Don't you think that she's a bit too rude, sir? I mean, she could have just said welcome right? What was the need to be so rude? Even my wife is not that rude to me." Said the man, standing beside the Director.
"Phil, in this line of work, you need to butter people up a bit. She's a good actress and I am a good director, do you even know, how good of a match we are, together? Anyways, I don't really care about her rudeness or politeness. All I care about is, my movie. As soon as the shooting ends, I'll try my best to stay away from her." Said the director, while smiling.
Disha's vanity was near the chair on which the director was sitting, so she heard everything and came outside after a few minutes. "Do you think that I couldn't hear whatever you, both just said about me? How about a legal notice to your company, director? You know, how bad it is to harass an actress, don't you?" Asked Disha, sarcastically.
"I..I know. Ofcourse I know! Phil was just a bit shocked by your boldness, so I was explaining him the reason, of you behaving like that." Said the director, while laughing awkwardly.
Disha glared at the director and went back inside, her vanity van, after coming inside, she settled on her chair. "Mam! Mam! Where's my lunch?" Shouted Disha, while scrolling through her phone.
"Why are you shouting on the top of your voice? I am still here, aren't I? This vanity van is so big, it takes a lot of time for me to walk through the kitchen and reach to your table, and look at you, scrolling through your phone. "Mam, I am not just killing my time! I am trying to select a dress for the award show." Said Disha.
"Award show? Yo..you're getting an award? I...I am so overwhelmed! Even though, I am not your birth mother, but I have always thought of you as my own child. So..it just makes me really happy to see you growing." Said Lily, happily. "Mam, why are you so emotional? And, have you tried to look for someone to marry yet? You're not in your 60s! You're..you're just 30 years old! You started babysitting me at the age of 20! And you're still single! How long are you going to stay with me!? Can't you just get married to someone already?" Exclaimed Disha.
"Well, if you want me to get married, then you should get married yourself, first! and by the way, your boyfriend, Rahul...did he break up with you?" Asked Lily, worriedly.
