she cried her heart out infront of padma. she did not understand what to do. whenever there is some talk regarding dream boy's and marriage's in the school, she just used to say that, they are all good for nothing and are time waste and she used to tell that, she will never get marrried in her life, and will live a peaceful and pleasant, single life, without any commitments, sacrifices and disturbances. she used to feel pity for her friends, who had their boy friends and used to predict about how messy their life is going to become.
she decided to keep a full stop for her dreams and views now. because, she very well knew that, thinking about something that is not going to happen is of no use. all she knew was, she agreed to marry, armaan mallik, who is just 2 months elder to her and is the son of her favourite pal and uncle, jai mallik and her best friend namrata mallik.
it was only padma who was happy but not riddhima. on one side, she is worrying for padma's health and on the other side, thinking about what might be her future and life. what turns it might take if something happnes to her dearest mom. she felt scared and insecure.
it was decided that, it will be a personal function, only with the closest people ever and not ever the family friends. at this, riddhima decided to call her only best friend muskaan..
she wanted to share this news with her but was a kind of nervous.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
riddhima: hey muskaan.. how are you doing ?
muskaan: i am good riddhima. you tell. oh my god. after going to mumbai, i am missing you and anjali so much yaar. i really wanna come back to bangalore. between, how is padma aunty ? i am seriously missing her too ! so, how was your school today ? yaar.. people will generally tell that, until you finish your grade 10, there will be a kind of burden and after that, you can live a kind of peaceful life but my situation is completely upside down. i am working hard in my grade 11 and taking more stress now, as compared to 10th. yeh kya hai, sirf mein hi baat kar rahi hoon. tum baatein kyun nahi kar rahi ho ?
riddhima: muski ji, agar aap ijazat denge to hum bhi baat karenge. tum toh tumhari signature style mein baatein karti reh gayi.. aur mein kya karoon.. sunti reh gayi.. hamesha ki tarah. okay. let me answer your questions.. i am good and mom is good too and soon, you are coming to
bangalore too. and yeah. i am also expected to work hard in the school.
muskaan: mein bangalore abhi kyun aaongi ?
riddhima: actually, i wanted to share something with you.. you should not critisize, laugh or get scared. you just should listen and keep quiet. in short, just understand.
muskaan: hmm.. yeah.. kahin tum koi bhoot ke baare mein toh baat karne waali ho na.. you remember, one day, when i used to be in bangalore, you told me a ghost story and i was crying in the morning due to fear.. you are not going to do something like that na..
riddhima: no muski.. okay.. you only guess...
muskaan: kya yaar... guessing wessing kar rahi ho.. tum toh aise baat kar rahi ho ki, teri shaadi ya sagai kuch ki dinon mein hone waali hai.. seedhe point par aajao..
riddhima: tumne sahi guess kiya muski. i am getting engaged on day after tomorrow..
that was it.. muskaan got the biggest shocks in her life ever. she never thought that, riddhima would burst a bomb like this suddenly. as muskaan asked the reasons, riddhima explained each and every one of them, portraying her helplessness. muskaan feels really bad but happy
with a fact that, even after her mom leaves her forever, riddhima is going to have a family. but another thing that is running simultaniously in her mind was that, she loved her padma aunty so much and she can not digest the fact that, she is not having much time. finally, muskaan gained a bit of courage and sopke up that, she will come for the engagement and will be arriving on the next day itself, which makes riddhima gain confidence.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
on the other side, armaan calls to his best buddy rahul, and tells about his engagement. rahul also gets shocked like muskaan and he also tells that, he is going to come.
rahul: but armaan.. do you think you will be happy with this. this is such a kind of decision that, you are going to face its results until your last breath. are you ready for this ?
armaan: yeah dude. i am ready for this. i love padma aunty and shashank uncle so much. they are extremely sweet and caring. i haven't met riddhima before, but i am expecting that, she will inherit all the sweetness of aunty and uncle. if she is like them, i might be the happiest guy in this world. i have taken this step rahul. i cant see them in that condition. mom and dad were also worrying since a long time. and now there is no going back at all.
one more thing. i am not getting married right now na.. so, no probz. they told that, they will get us married only after we finish our education and once we get settled. and in all this time, we might try and know eachother. if we feel that, we are not made for eachother, we can think about that then. all i want now is to make mom, dad, and padma aunty happy.
rahul: hmm.. i can't tell anything now. actually, never thought about things in such directions. and between, did you talk to your would be fiance...
rahul keeps irritating armaan with "would be finace" tags..
armaan: shut up rahul.. i haven't spoken to her till now. i wish i knew her even before.
we studied our play class together, but we never remember............
even before he finishes his unfinished and unsaid words, there will be a knock at the door and it is none other than, jai and namrata.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
he went into her room. he never thought that, such a day would come into his life. he did not understand what to do. he was asked to go and meet her, talk to her and make her feel comfortable when he is around. he did as he was told. as he entered her room, he found that, everything was pink in there. there were tiny crystal chimes hanging to the nearby window, which was painted in white, along with white curtains...
his eyes looked for her.. after a few moments, she came out from the attached store room in her room, and was carrying a novel in her hand. well, armaan studied his play class with her and then, they got shifted to mumbai. so, he does not know much about her.
he looked at her, checking her out. many things were going in his mind..
"hmm.. so, she is the one whom im gonna get engaged to. she looks extremely pretty and flawless but yaar.. agar tum isse abhi hi engage karoge, log tujhe dekh ke hasenge. and especially, that vicky in the school. he is such a brat. but what to do. it is not only because of
father's force.. but i can not see padma aunty in such a situation. this is because, i love padma aunty and shashank uncle a lot. even though i dont know them personally, but when mom and dad tell their past and childhood days like stories, i felt like they are my family"
his thoughts were broken by riddhima, who stood there, infront of him, nervously..
both of them did not understand regarding what they should speak about. armaan kept looking at her while riddhima looked towards the floor. armaan breaks the silence with his introduction..
armaan: hello.. i am armaan.. i hope you remember me.. i am doing my grade 11 from Mumbai...
riddhima: hello.. yeah ofcourse i remember you. i am also in my 11th only. hmm.. vo.. please sit.. why are you standing...
suddenly, they get disturbed by a huge voice that comes from the downstairs...
jai: riddhima.. armaan.. DRIVER.. abhi gaadi nikalo... Riddhima.. Armaan.. Jaldo neche aao.. Namrata, padma ke liye thoda sa paani leke aao..
Jai keeps shouting at the top of his voice, since Padma again gets an attack... They did know that, she was in a danger but they never knew that, the threat is going to come so soon.... riddhima, along with armaan, rush to the downstairs, where they find jai, carrying namrata
in his arms and namrata, helping the kids get into the car.
riddhima was feeling really scared now, and with the every passing moment, he tension is increasing.. she jjust wished that the earth absorbed her..
they finally reached the hospital and due to their fate, the doctors say that, Padma is living her last moments of her life...Riddhima'scondition turnes worser and armaan also starts crying seeing padma in such a condition. she wanted to sleep in someones lap or hug someone and cry her heart out. she want to tell someone that, she is missing her mom. she can not live this life.. but she is unable to. at a such a young age, she is left alone, and she was not able to do anything
other than crying.
the doctor soon comes telling that, padma wants to talk and meet jai and namrata.
jai and namrata have tears flowing their eyes.. they go inside while armaan and riddhima sit out side the room beside eachother, holding eachother's hands, creating a moral support to eachother.... they never minded the closeness between them. all they were concentrating was on the door of the room, in which padma was present.
jai: padma.. pa.. padma... tum.. tum fikar mat karo padma.. hum... hum riddhima ke khayal rakhenge. woh aaj se sirf tumhari nahi... hamari bhi beti hai.. armaan se jzyaada hai woh.. hamare liye.. woh hamari beti hai padma..
namrata: hhaaan,,,, padma.. riddhima.. aaj se humari beti bhi hai.. tum uske fikar mat karo.. padma, woh hamare sab se kheemti rahegi.. aur hum dono usko iss duniya ki saare khushiyaan denge...
padma: nam... ri... (namri) kuch maang..na.. hai..
namrata and jai (together) maango padma.
padma: kya riddhima auur.. armaa.. ki sagayi aaj.. aaj.. ho sakti haaai....
jai: ofcourse yes padma. it has been already decided. i will get them in right now.
namrata nods at jai's gesture and goes outside. she gets riddhima and armaan inside the ICCU and riddhima, as soon as she enters the room, hugs padma as tight as possible and soon parts from her..
Riddhima: mumma, aaj se na, mein bohot achchi ban jaaongi.. subah subah uthoongi, exercise karoongi, healthy food khaoongi, school se aane ke baad, pehle jaake nahaoongi, nahane ke baad hi apne computer ke paas baitoongi.. aur.. aur.. maa... meri raat ko 10 baje ko
sojaoongi.. mumma.. mein hamesha aap ko khush rakhoongi.. aap please ghar pe waapas aajao..
padma brushes her hair in return..
padma: meri achchi bachchi.. riddhima, aaj mein tumhe kuch kehna chahti hoon.. (after a long pause) riddhu, aaj se jai aur namrata hi, tumhare maa baap hai aur mein jahan par bhi rahoongi, tumhe dekhte rahoongi... aur yeh mat bhoolna, hamesha tumhare saath hi rahongi.. tumhe pata hai na, hum dono best friends hai.. aur best friends ke policy kya hai ? hamesha ek saath rehna.. chahe wahan par rahe ya na rahe, ek doosre ke liye support karna.. aur tumhe meri support hamesha rahegi... meri ek aakhri khwaish hai.. hamesha haste rehna riddhu... mein tumhare aankhon mein aansoon nahi dekh sakti shona...
jai, immediately send the driver to get the rings of armaan and riddhima, which he kept on the main table in the hall.. as the rings arrive, armaan and riddhima on the other side, after observing padma's condition, also got convinced.
they turned the video camera on, while armaan and riddhima exchanged the rings.. padma, jai and namrata bless both of them. they have some special moments with padma and she closes her eyes finally, drifting into the most longest sleep ever, being no more to the world, but
being always there for riddhima, in her heart, thoughts and will...
as that happened, riddhima's world came to an end but she remembered padma's words. she reminisiced everything that happened since her childhood. she remembered how she, along with her mom, used to see her childhood photo's, where padma will be feeding her cerelac, in a tiny bowl.. she remembers about how padma used to record the video of hers, when she was a months baby, and when she will not be sleeping during the night times...
she reminicised how padma used to teach her school things and how she used to write her notes when she felt tired. she always used to explain and describe each and every moment of her day to padma.. but today, who is there to listen to her ? she can share these with jai and namrata.. but she might not be frank and free.. there are somethings like basic formallities for her... she shaked padma's body vigorously and demanded her to wake up...
