Raghu & Padmini:Mridul & Wasna
Heal my heart Part 11
Padmini is getting engaged to Raghu;who is Akash's friend.
The engagement function...
Padmini has worn a silk Indian dress.
Riddhima goes near them:All the best.
Raghu:All the best has to be told by me to you and Akash.Don't disappoint Akash.
Riddhima's face becomes upset.
R:Where is Akash?
Ra:I don't know why he is late.
Suddenly Akash comes.he has worn shervani.
Ra:Akash has landed.
Riddhima looks at Akash.Akash is finding it difficult to face her.
He thinks:Does she know about the proposal?
Ra:Akash!
A:I'm sorry buddy.I became late.
Ra:It's ok.
Akash and Riddhima look at each other.
Raghu and Padmini exchange rings with a smile.
Riddhima has worn a typical Indian yellow dress which has red designs on it with metal ornaments.She dances to the song
'Maye ni maye mundher pe teri, bol raha hain kaaga
Jogan ho gayi teri dulari, man jogi sang laaga..'{Hum aapke hain kaun}.
All are having food.Riddhima is standing simply as she does'nt feel like having food.Akash's mental stage is also not so good.Because of the proposal incident he is very upset and that's why he did'nt get the mood to dress up on time for the function.
He thinks:I myself will tell it to Riddhima.
He goes near Riddhima.She feels uncomfortable.
A:Riddhima!
She is silent.
A:I know that you hate me.But Prem bhaiyya and Anjali bhabhi misunderstood us and talked to your father about our wedding.
Riddhima is shocked.She looks at his face.
A:Believe me Riddhima..it was without my knowledge.Please..
R:I know that it is without your knowledge.Because after knowing what i did to your Anjali bhabhi you hate me.
Akash does'nt know what to say.He cools himself.Riddhima turns back to walk away.He holds her hand.She looks at him with wonder.
A:I can never hate you Riddhima.I still love you.
She can't believe it.Her eyes become wet.
R:One more thing i have to reveal to you.
Akash looks at her carefully as he is eager to know that.
R:I used to think that i love a man.But i realized later that it was only an infatuation.He is none other than my brother in law Ashmit.
Akash is shocked.
R:He has loved only Nupoo.Now he is like my own brother.
Santha overhears it.She goes away.
She looks at his face to know his reaction.
A:Everyone feels infatuation towards someone.I'm not bothered about that.
He removes her hand slowly.
Her hair strands fall on her face.Slowly he moves his fingers towards her forehead and cheek and moves it to a side.They both are lost in each other's eyes.
Akash goes away.She keeps looking at him.He turns back.
A:Your dance was good.
Her seriousness turns into a smile.He smiles and goes away.
Riddhima reaches home.
Inder:How was the function?
R:It was grand.
I:How was your dance performance?
R:It was ok.
I:Prem and Anjali had come here.
R:I know.
Inder is surprised.
R:I met Akash at the Party.
Inder is surprised.
I:What should i tell Prem?
Riddhima is silent.
I:They doubt whether you will reject the proposal with hatred.But i have no doubt about that as i have noticed changes in you.
Riddhima looks at him as she wants to know what he thinks about her reply.
I:I feel you don't hate Akash.
R:You are right dad.I don't hate Akash.
I:You love him?
Riddhima did'nt expect that question from him.
Riddhima is silent.
I:You were so bold and smart before.You never hesitated to express your feelings.But now...
R:Now i realize that sometimes no girl can be a boy.
I:I'm your father.I can understand your feelings.But i want to hear reply from your mouth.Are you happy with this proposal?
Riddhima smiles:Yes.Today only i realized that i also have feelings for Akash.Akash is waiting for my reply.
Inder smiles:Then you yourself give the reply to Akash.
She is shy.
She goes to her room.She thinks about her moments with Akash and sings:
Dil Ne Kaha Chupke Se
Yeh Kya Hua Chupke Se
Kyon Naye Lag Rahe Hein
Yeh Dharti Gagan Meine
Pichcha To Boli Yeh Pagli Pawan
Pyar Hua Chupke Se...{1947 a love story}.
Santha tells Ashmit and Nupur about Riddhima's crush on Ashmit.
They are shocked.
N:No,you are lying.
S:I swear..it's not a lie.If you have any doubt you ask Riddhima.
Santha goes.
Nupur cries:Ridz used to share everything with me,but why did she hide it from me?I always tried to make her happy.But i snatched her love from her and wounded her heart.
She curses herself.
Ashmit does'nt know how to comfort Nupur.
Slowly he keeps his arm on her shoulder:Nupoo!
She looks at him with tears:Ashmit..you were not meant for me?You were meant for Ridz?Then why did we become one?I did a big mistake.We should not have gotten married.
Her words wound Ashmit's heart.
A:What are you saying Nupoo?We love each other and so our marriage is our sacred union.
She removes his arm from her shoulder.
A:Nupoo,you promised me that you will always be with me.Right?
She weeps:That was my mistake.I don't want you tearing Ridz's heart.
He is shocked.
A:Then what about tearing my heart?
She goes away crying.
He is depressed.
He walks outside in the rain and thinks about his romantic moments with Nupur.Though he is thinking about his sweet moments it pains him and so his tears flow down.
