6 months had passed by since Sujal,Maahi and Abhinav had left from India...within these 6 months...Maahi and Kashish had not been in touch within these 6 months...Kashish would speak to Abhinav but never did she speak to Maahi or Sujal...one evening..Kashish was sat in her office..working when her mobile rang...she answered the phone without looking...

Kashish: haa...sia kaha na maine ...main 20 mins me ghar aa rahi hoon...

Sujal: hello...Kashish...Sia nahin...main Sujal bol raha hoon

Kashish who was sitting on her chair just gets up hearing his voice...

Kashish: maahi ko achcha nahi lagega...

Sujal: par muje acha lagega...kya tum mere kehne par nahin aaogi?

Kashish: tum kaho aur main na aau aisa kabhi ho sakta hai kya...

Sujal: iska matlab..tum arahi ho?

Kashish: main kal shaam ki flight se aa rahi hoon...

Sujal: sach!..oh i am so happy Kashish...thank you so much...that is the best gift you could give me...aur us din main Maahi ko bhi ek tohfa dena chahta hoon...jiske liye tumhe mera saath dena hoga..

Sujal: main Maahi ko uski behan lautana chahta hoon...main chahta hoon ke tum dono ke beech sab kuch pehle jaisa hojaye...aur iske liye tumhe yahan aana hoga

Kashish: muje Maahi se aaj bhi koi sikayat nahi...woh meri behen hai aur hamesha rahegi aur main aaj bhi use utna hi pyaar karti hoon jitna pehle...

Sujal closes the phone and smiles knowing Kashish will be coming..he places his mobile in his pocket and gets back to work..

************************************************************************************************************************

It was now the next day...Kashish landed at Mauritius airport...and stood their waiting for Sujal as he told her he would pick her up...she was a little nervous as she would be seeing Sujal after 6 months...when moments later she realised Sujal's driver was waiting for her..she walked upto him and he explained that Sujal couldn't make it as he got busy in some work...Kashish didn't say anything and just folowed the driver as he took her luggage...he dropped her off at Sinha Residence and then left from there..Kashish came home and met Abhinav...giving him a hug...he was so happy to see Kashish and he spent the whole day talking to her...in the evening they got ready for the party and left together for the venue...as they arived at the party..they walked inside together..and saw Sujal and Maahi attending some guests..reveicing flowers from them as they congratulated them for their anniversarry...when Sujal and Maahi saw Abhinav and Kashish...they excused themselves..and walked towards Kashish and Abhinav...as she stood there with a smile...they were surprised to see Kashish smiling...they had not seen her smile so openly for a long time..they just looked at each other and then towards Kashish...

Sujal: hi Kashish...kaisi ho tum...

Kashish just smiles and holds his hand...

Kashish: I am perfectly fine...lekin aaj tumhara din hai...Happy Anniversary aur aage jake aisi 100 anniversaries aaye...

Sujal: thank you so much Kashish...i am sure tumhari wishes saath hain to bilkul aisa hi hoga...aur humare saath saath har anniversarry me tumhara shaamil hona to bohat hi zaroori hai...

Kashish: meri behen ki zindagi ka itni khushi ka din ho aur main na aau...kyun Maahi...muje yaha kya nahi hona chahiye...agar naa bhi kahogi tab bhi main yahi se nahi jaungi...

Maahi: aur aisa kisne kaha ke tumhe yahan nahin hona chahiye...tumhe bilkul yahan hona chahiye...aur main bohat khush hoon tumhe yahan dekh ke

Kashish just moves forward and hugges Maahi...

Kashish: Happy annivesary Maahi...bahot bahot mubarak ...aur khushiyaan aise hi zindagi bhar tumhare kadam me aati rahe...

Maahi hugs her back resting her arm on Kashish's back..feeling so happy to see her this way..she just smiled as she hugged her..

Maahi: thank you so much Kashish..tum jaanthi nahin ke tumhe yahan dekh ke main kitni khush hoon...

Kashish: muje bhi bahot khushi huyi Maahi...tumse milke...ple muje meri galti ke liye maff kar do...maine bahot dil dukhaya na ...

Maahi: dil to maine bhi tumhara dukhaya...shayad haalaaat hi aise paida hogaye the...isliye is baat ko bhool jaate hain...i am just happy ke tum yahan aayi ho...

Kashish moves back...

Kashish: ab milna to ho gaya...ab celebration ho jaye...

Maahi: ofcourse...aur is khushi pe main chahti hoon ke tum aaj yahan humare liye dance karo..karogi na Kashish?

Kashish: i would surly do...lekin main apne ghunghroo Mumbai bahot sambhal ke rakh ke aayi hoon aur uske bina to mumkin nahi...

Maahi: kya...tum Mumbai me chod aayi ho...tum saath me kyun nahin leke aayi..

Kashish: agar phir se tut gaye to...is bar tut gaye to wapas nahi bun paungi use...

Sujal: woh ghungroo itne keemti hain tumhare liye?

Kashish: jaan se bhi jyada...

Sujal: tumhari jaan se zyada woh ghungroo kabhi bhi keemti nahin hosakte Kashish...

Kashish: woh to hai...ab meri chodo...tum yeh batao aaj meri behen ko kya gift kar rahe ho...

Sujal: tumhari behen ko...ek bohat hi special gift...main tumhari behen ko ek naya ghar gift kar raha hoon...yeh raha ghar ka plan...aur kal..tum office aarahi ho isse finalise karne ke liye...kyunki tumhe is kaam me experience hai...

Kashish: ofcourse main aa rahi hoon...

Maahi: kya!! tumne ek naya ghar liya...aur muje kuch bataya hi nahin...

Sujal: Maahi...agar main bata deta to isme surprise kya rehta

Maahi: bahot hi achcha surprise hai...now i cant wait to see the house...

Sujal: hmm...abhi to sirf planning stage hai...abhi to kuch waqt lagega...ghar banne me...

Maahi: haa to hum intzaar kar lenge na...thank you so much Sujal...i just love it...

Maahi just went into Sujal;s arms...

Sujal smiles as he wraps his arms around her...hugging her...

Sujal: and i love you...

Maahi: I love you too...

Sujal just smiles holding her in his arms..whilst Kashish just looks at them..she lowers her eyes...with a small smile..as she tried to move her gaze..although her smile was still there...she felt so painful from the inside...as she excused herself from there...wiping the tears form the corner of her eyes..when she bumped into Daima...Daima just looked at her seeing so much pain in her eyes...she just held Kashish's face..so happy to see her...Kashish just hugged Daima tightly..letting out her pain...

Daima: kaisi hai meri bachi...yakeen nahin aata ke main tumhe poore ek saal baad mil rahi hoon

Kashish: main bilkul thik hoon...aap kaise hai...maine aapko bahot miss kiya...

Daima: ab theek hoon...tumhe dekh ke...apne galle se laga kar aisa lagga jaise meri jaan me jaan aagayi..main bata nahin sakti aaj main kitni khush hoon apni bchi ko yahan dekh ke..

Kashish: aap pareshan mat hoiye...main bilkul thik hoon...

Daima: main janti hoon ke tum kitni theek ho..dard saaf saaf tumhari aankhon me nazar aaraha hai..phir bhi chehre pe muskurahat hai..najaane yeh sab kaise karleti ho tum...

Kashish: bahot hi aasan hai...sirf aadat dalne ki baat hai...

Daima: tum to hamesha se aisi hi ho beta...aur har kissi ke bas ki baat nahin hai apne dard ko yun muskurahat ke peeche chupana..tumhare dil me is waqt kya chal raha hai..woh muje ache se pata hai..tumhare dard ko achi tarah se jaanthi hoon main...

Kashish: jab dard kam nahi ho sakta to uski kyun ab parwaah kare...isi liye dard ka bhulna hi behtar hai..

Daima: dard ko to tum bhool sakti ho..lekin us insaan ko nahin jiski wajah se aaj tum itne dard guzar rahi ho...usse kyun nahin bhool jaati tum beta..

Kashish: jane dijiye na Diama...aaj waise bhi kitni khushi ka din hai..

Daima: tum khush ho Kashish?

Kashish: haa...kyun nahi hona chahiye...

Daima just looks at her knowing how hard she is trying to hide her pain..so decides against saying anything...

Daima: haan...hona chahiye...ab chalo...muje bohat si baatein karni hai apni beti se..

Kashish: muje bhi aapse bahot baatein karni hai...

Daima: jaanthi hoon...aao wahan baithte hain hum...

Daima smiles at Kashish as she follows Daima..they take a seat together..talking and catching up on the previous year...as the party continued to go on...when Sujal made an announcement for all to join them on the stage...as the two cut the cake...feeding Kashish, Abhinav and Daima...and then each other at the end...when the DJ played a song..dedicating it to Sujal and Maahi...Kashish left the stage followed by the rest..as a few couples remained on the stage...dancing..Kashish just stared at Sujal and Maahi...maintaining a smile on her face...as she watched them dance...with Abhinav stood beside her..placing his hand on her shoulder...The party continued to go on for sometime longer and slowly the guests started leavign after wishing Sujal and Maahi...as the party came to an end..

**************************************************************************************************************************

The next morning..Sujal and Maahi were at the office waiting for Kashish to arrive as Maahi sat across him..looking at the plan..when Kashish knocked...

Sujal: come in...

Kashish: hi guys...kya meeting me nahi jana...naye ghar ki...

Sujal: pehle tum design to approve karo...tabhi kuch hosakta hai

Kashish: come on Sujal...tum mujse bhi jyada isme experience rakhte ho...tumko pasand aaya to ...it should be perfect..

Sujal: i may be experienced...lekin experience ke saath saath saath creativity ki bhi zaroorat hai...aur woh to tum me hai...

Kashish: yaa sure...thik hai dikhao...

Sujal: yeh raha table pe design...what do u think...

Kashish comes up to the table and sees the blue print of the plan as well the contract papers...

Kashish: Sujal...its really beautiful...

Sujal: do you really think so?...i mean kuch to kammi hogi

Kashish: kuch kami hai woh Maahi pura kar degi...i mean bacho ke saath kyun Maahi...

Maahi gets slightly embarassed whilst Sujal passes her a smile...

Sujal: i think Kashish is right..kyun Maahi

Maahi: haa...is saal main iske bare me sochungi...

Sujal: arre wah...kya baat hai...thanks Kashish...meri to sunti nahin...kamsekam tumhari to sun li

Kashish: achcha hai...koi to meri sunta hai yaha..

Sujal: kyun kisne tumhari baat nahin sunni...muje batao...main baat karta hoon usse

Kashish: jane do...meeting ke liye dair ho rahi hai...

Sujal: haan woh bhi hai...chalo jaldi se chal kar isse finalise karte hain...chalo Maahi...

Maahi: haan chalo...

Maahi picks up the blue print and gets up and placed it in her handbag...Sujal starts walking towards the door with Maahi following...when the blue print slowly slipped out of her handbag...Kashish who was walking behind saw it fall and settle on the ground...she bent down picking it up...and looking...when Maahi turned around realising it fell..

Maahi: arre...yeh kaise gir gaya...

Kashish: bas tumhara dhyan chuk gaya isi liye...lekin mere hote huye kabhi tumhara ghar nahi tutega...

Maahi just smiles at her as she takes the blue print from Kashish...

Maahi: jaanti hoon...kuch nahin hone dogi tum...aur na hi main kabhi tutne dungi usse..hamesha sambhal k rakhungi apne is ghar ko...bohat keemti hai yeh mere liye

Kashish: ghar tab keemti hota hai jaha pe pyaar ho...

Maahi: mere pyar ne hi to muje yeh tohfa diya hai...tabhi to yeh mere liye keemti hai

Kashish: sambhal ke rakhna...kyunki ek bar ghar chut gaya to wapas nahi aayega...

Maahi: tum fikar mat karo Kashish...main apne ghar ko...apni zindagi ko...kabhi nahin chutne dungi

Kashish: achcha laga sunke...ab meeting ke liye chale...

Maahi: haan chalo...

Maahi passes her a smile...and then heads off towards the door...Kashish just watches her leave for a moment thinking of how lucky Maahi is and then slowly followed after...

****************************************************************************************************************************

2 days had passed by and today was the day that Kashish had to leave for India...she brought her luggage downstairs...where Sujal and Abhinav were waiting for Kashish to drop her at the airport...she met Daima the previous night..and Maahi came to say goodbye before going for a meeting...Sujal took her luggage as they settled in the car...heading to the airport...when Abhinav noticed her lookung lost...

Abhinav: beta...kya soch rahi ho tum?

Kashish: kuch ..kuch bhi to nahi...bas yahi soch rahi hoon...kal se phir se akeli...

Abhinav: beta...agar tum bura na maano to kya main ek baat kahun

Kashish: hmm...kahiye...lekin please dad...shaadi ko leke nahi...

Abhinav: kyun beta...isme kya burayi hai...tum akele zindagi kaise bita sakti ho beta...wahan tum akeli ho...aur yahan bhi tum nahin rehna chahti...aage badho beta...bhool jaao apne ateet ko...

Sujal: uncle bilkul theek kehrahe hain Kashish...muje lagta hai ke tumhe shaadi karleni chahiye...tumhara saara akelapan durr hojayega

Kashish: mera akelapan durr karne ke liye kya shaadi hi kar lu...aur waise bhi mere pass yaadein hai uski woh kafi hai...

Abhinav: beta yaadon ke sahare zindagi nahin kaati jaa sakti...ek saathi ki humesha zaroorat padti hai..main jaanta hoon...yeh akelapan kitni takleef deta hai...tumhari mom ke jaane ke baad yeh zindagi kitni mushkil se guzri hai...woh main hi bata sakta hoon

Kashish: mom is duniya se ja chuki hai aur jisse main pyaar karti hoon woh mere saamne hai aaj..

Sujal: jab tum usse itna pyar karti ho...woh insaan tumhare saamne rehta hai...to tum kyun nahin batadeti usse...usse apna kyun nahin leti...

Kashish: uski shaadi ho chuki hai...

Abhinav and Sujal look towards her in shock...

Abhinav: kya!..uski shaadi hogayi...aur tum aaj bhi usse utna hi pyar karti ho...

Sujal: tumne itni dair kyun kardi Kashish?

Kashish: dair kab huyi pata hi nahi chala...

sujal: Kashish jisse tum pyar karti thi...tumne usse kissi aur ka kyun hone diya...ab kya saari zindagi tum issi dard ke saath jiyogi

Kashish: dard nahi Sujal...ek khushi ke saath...

Sujal: kya matlab...main kuch samja nahin

Kashish: woh aaj us insaan ke saath bahot khush hai jiske saath uski shaadi huyi...aur uski khushi me meri khushi hai..

Abhinav: woh apni zindagi me aage badh sakta hai to tum kyun nahin beta...kya tum apni zindagi ko yunhi barbaad karogi?

Kashish: barbad zindagi ko aur kitna barbad karungi...kya pata aage kisko kaam aa jaye meri zindagi...

Abhinav: to kya tum yunhi doosron ko khud ka istemaal karne dogi beta?...kya tumhe khush rehne ka koi haq nahin...agar woh apni zindagi me khush hai...to tum bhi aage badho...taki tum apne ateet ko bhool sako...

Kashish: ek nayi pehchan ke saath to aage badh chuki hoon main...aaj mere pass khud ki ek pehchan hai jise log Kashish Sinha kehte hai...aur main apne kaam se khush hoon aur agar aage jake muje koi mila to ...to haa main use jaanne ki koshish karungi...

Abhinav: lekin...beta...

When Sujal stops him...

Sujal: uncle...rehne dijiye...shayad yeh humari baat abhi nahin samajna chahti...thoda waqt dijiye usse...is sabse bahar aane ke liye...muje yakeen hai ke ek din Kashish beete kal ko bhool ke aage badhegi...

Kashish: thanks sujal support ke liye...ab meri baat chodo tum batao naye ghar pe kab shift honge...taki main waha holidays pe aa saku...

Sujal: shayad che saat mahine lag jayenge...abhi to woh ghar khaali sa hai..abhi usse sajana hai...sara furniture...painting wagaira karna hai...par haan...jab hum shift honge to sabse pehle tumhe invite karenge...

Kashish: haa main to zaroor aaungi lekin ghar ko sajana hi hai to phir bacho se sajana chahiye kyunki woh ghar ki jaan hote hai to phir muje masi kab bana rahe ho tum dono...

He smiles at her as he looks through the mirror...

Sujal: ab yeh to sab kismat ki baat hai Kashish...lekin bohat jald i m sure tumhe yeh good news hum zaroor denge...

Kashish: ab to jab yeh good news aayegi tab hi main aanewali hoon wapas Maurititus me...achcha filhal ke liye to airport aa gaya ...aur waqt bhi muje jane ka...

Sujal parks the car and goes to get a trolley...as he places her luggage on top of it...as they headed into the airport...

Sujal: lets hope ke jab thak humara ghar taiyaar hota hai...tab tak good news aajaye...kyunki ab tumhari yeh zidd bhi poori karni hogi...

Kashish: yeh sab to maahi pe depand hai lekin I am sure woh bhi meri baat kabhi nahi tal sakti...achcha main chalti hoon tum mere dad aur Maahi ka khayal rakhna...

Sujal: aur tum apna...i hope tumhe jald hi dhair saari khushian mille...aur tumhara har sapna poora ho...aur haan...do keep in touch...take care..

Kashish looks at him for a moment...and nods lowering her gaze..she walks towards Abhinav and sees that he was looking upset...he tried to smile at her...when she went into his arms and hugged him...Abhinav gently patted her head...

Abhinav: mann to abhi bhi kar raha hai ke main kissi tareeke se jaane se rok lun...par main jaanta hoon tum nahin rukogi...apna khayal rakhna beta...aur pohanchte hi phone karna...main tumhe bohat miss karunga...

Kashish: haa dad main apna pura khayal rakhungi lekin aap bhi...aur dad main janti hoon main aap ko bahot taklif de rahi hoon lekin kya karoon...koshish karti hoon lekin jo aap chahte hai woh kar nahi pati...

Abhinav: aisa nahin kehte beta...tu to meri achi beti hai...tum muje kaise takleef de sakti ho...muje bas tumhare dard se takleef hoti hai...main bas tumhe khush dekhna chahta hoon

Kashish: yeh muskaan ke saath main ja rahi hoon taki aap sab khush reh sake...achcha ab main chalti hoon apna khayal rakhna ...bye dad...take care...

Abhinav: bye beta...

Sujal: bye Kashish...

She moves back and looks at Sujal...as she slowly takes steps backward...each step taken filling her heart with pain..her eyes wanted to keep him forever but her mind knew it was impossible...with a painful heart...she turned away from him and walked straight ahead...without looking ahead...her eyes teary as a tear escaped the corner of her eyes...running down her cheek...she knew if she looked back it would only make it worse...so she walked away getting lost in the crowd...Sujal looked at Abhinav and placed a hand on his shoulder to reassure him...and then walked away frm there...

**************************************************************************************************************************

Time was flowing by like water in the ocean...months were passing by fast but Kashish was still at the same place...she hadn t moved on in all these months...her life just as painful as before...it was 11pm..and Kashish was still in the office...working away...the silence always brought her pain...so she tried to keep herself busy...when the window flew open...the wind so strong that her papers flew all around the office...she got up and leant down...picking up the papers...when her eyes fell on Sujal s photograph which had flown with the papers..she picked it up slowly...lookin at the photo...

Kashish (to herself): kitna bhi bhulne ki koshish karoon ..na kabhi bhul paungi na kabhi durr ja sakungi...

Kashish:S...Sujal...

Sujal who was on other side back at Mauritius with Maahi was shopping at Home Decor...when he looked at the marble turtle and picked up thinking about Kashish..

Sujal: Kashish...

Kashish opened her eyes widely...looking around in surprise...she felt him call out to her as her heart beats rose..and she slowly panted...standing up in a hurry as she looked around the cabin..,trying to find him...she wiped her tears and walked out of her cabin...looking for him...

Kashish: Sujal!..Sujal!...Sujal!..

Sia who was working in her office comes out hearing Kashish screaming with Sujal's name...She turns on the lights and sees Kashish is standing with picture of Sujal in her hand in tears...She rushes to her seeing her state...gripping her from her shoulders...holding her up...

Sia: Kashish!...Kashish kya hua tumhe...

She broke into tears,...as she held Sia s arms...

Kashish: Sia woh...Sujal...woh Sujal yahan...woh mujhe bula raha tha...maine uski awaaz suni...woh yahin hai Sia...yahin hai woh...yahin...hai...woh...

back at Mauritius...Maahi and Sujal were at the store...deciding on the colours for there room...

Sujal: Maahi...muje black bedsheets chahiye...

Maahi: i like olive...its good...kafi calm color hai...

Sujal: nahin i want black Maahi..black is perfect...aur olive green chaho tho...tum humare hone waale bachon ke room ke liye le sakti ho...

He places his hand on her shoulder as she looks away blushing...a smile on his face.. Maahi holds his hand and draggs him..

Maahi: chalo...

Sujal: arre...itni jaldi hai tumhe...chalo...mujhe koi problem nahin...chalte hain hum...ghar...

Maahi drags Sujal outside when he holds her hand and pulls her closer with a smile...her hair falling down on her face...

Kashish: tumhari aur Maahi ki shaadi ko do saal hone ko aaye lekin phir bhi main us shaadi ki raat nahi bhul sakti jis din maine Sujal ko Maahi ko de diya..

Her mind travels back to the day Maahi and Sujal got married...and how she had given away Sujal forever...her pain...the way she cried at the beach...all came back to her...freshening her wounds...

Kashish: muje yakeen hai ki maine jo aakhir me tumse manga hai woh khwaish bhi tum meri zaroor puri karonge...

Kashish was sat at a deserted beach as she settled on a rock...watching the crashing waves...her tears shining through the moon

Kashish: hello...

She wipes her tears carefully listening to what was being said...when suddenly her eyes grew wide in shock...her lips slightly parted as no words could be spoken...the mobile fell out of her hand onto the floor as she froze at the spot...a fresh pair of tears escaping her eyes...
