journey - Part VII

Rajan and K were married for 5 years now and were also blessed with a baby boy called Sharan. Kusuma's "Aakanksha" had grown beautifully and there were around 10 therapists working there with children."Aakanksha" was not just another institution that was merely run to make money. It had a purpose and a goal. A purpose to serve the children with special needs and a goal to make it one of the best centers in India. How hard K had worked to set it up...
Sharan was a naughty 4 year old boy, v. intelligent and extremely talkative. Rajan, who had an established career as an architect, a lovely wife and an adorable child couldn't ask for more in life. Rajan always said to kusuma, " Everyday in the morning when I get up, I feel I have done something nice in my previous birth. So, God has rewarded me with you and Sharan ." K enjoyed all the love he showered on her and she too reciprocated it beautifully . Kusuma felt that living with Rajan was a dream come true for her. She used to often think of that day when Rajan had come to see her and had taken her out to talk to her in private. How she had fallen in love with him instantly. His intelligence, charm, looks, manners she had loved it all ............ Rajan and K had talked a lot that evening on varied topics and surprisingly their interests were very different but their respect for each other was immense. He was amazed by her multi tasking abilities and her passion towards children. She worked for them relentlessly, day and night. Back home, she was an ardent wife and a loving mother.
