Chapter 10

                                        

                                              

" Oh! Whom do we have here?" Rishabh asked getting up from his seat.
                              
Rishabh came and stood infront of Aman who is looking at him and Aadhya.
                              
" Hi, I am Rishabh." He said kneeling down to Aman's level making Aadhya smile.
                              
" Hi, I am Aman." Aman said.
                              
Rishabh smiled at Aman who was studying him from top to bottom scrutinizing him.
                              
" What's your age?" Rishabh asked him smiling.
                              
" Five." Aman replied.
                              
" Oh! So in which grade are you now?" Rishabh asked genuinely interested in knowing about him.
                              
" I am in first grade now." Aman said.
                              
" Ok, so do you wanna do something while we do work?" He asked him and he nodded his head in yes.
                              
" I will make him sit on my desk and come back." Aadhya said and left taking Aman with her.
                              
He looked at them through glass.
                              
She made Aman sit on her chair and adjusted the chair so that he can reach the desk. She took out some books, pencils and some snacks. She kept them on the table and told him something kissing his forehead.
                              
She came back into his cabin after making sure Aman was okay.
                              
Aadhya knows that Rishabh has many questions but she didn't let him ask anything and straight away started her work without looking at him.
                              
Rishabh observed Aadhya who started working and he doesn't know whether he should ask about her private life. He looked at her who is looking at Aman through glass from now and then. Even though she is sitting in front of him, her whole concentration was on the boy sitting outside.
                              
He also looked at Aman who was drawing something in his book and smiled. Looking at him reminded him of his own childhood and thought that things were easy being a child.
                              
" He is so adorable." Rishabh said smiling towards Aman.
                              
" Yeah he is." Aadhya also smiled looking at Aman.
                              
" If you don't mind may I know who is he?" Rishabh asked her.
                              
" My son." She said making him shock.
                              
" Your son?" He asked and she nodded her head in yes.
                              
"But I saw your status as single in your file that day." He said frowning at her.
                              
He feared internally about what he had to hear.
                              
" I am single only sir.....I am not married." She said looking at him blankly.
                              
" But you have a son!" He exclaimed.
                              
" To have a son, one doesn't need to get married." She said frowning at him.
                              
" What the hell do you mean?" He asked gritting his teeth.
                              
She thought about what she said and realised how did that sound actually.
                              
" No! It came out wrong." She said immediately.
                              
" I mean I am his mother and he is my son but I am not married....." She blabbered.
                              
" Aadhya, can you please tell me your actual relationship with Aman?" Rishabh asked slowly gritting his teeth.
                              
" Yes." She said looking at him wide eyed.
                              
" What is it?" He asked.
                              
" He is my son." She said.
                              
" Are you married?" He asked.
