MY Christmas Holiday

"Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye"

Late at Night

Armaan dropped riddhima home, riddhima got down from the bike without uttering any word or glancing at armaan she walked towards her home, he wanted to apologize to her but seeing her behavior he could really understand as he never missed seeing her silent tears….

As riddhima entered the house she saw the house decorated with lightings, streamers, the crib and her favorite Christmas tree fully decorated, uncle, aunty , muskaan and rahul were chatting happily, she greeted them with a small smile and quickly moved towards her room, all noticed her tear stricken face.

Entering her room she threw herself on the bed crying her heart out, muskaan n aunt mona had gone to check on her but seeing her crying they ran towards her…

Aunt Mo- ridzi what happened why are u crying…she asked worriedly…

Mus- ridzi pls tell us what happened and stop crying…who was equally worried .

But riddhima continued to cry…

Aunt- you won't tell me also, did armaan say anything to you….hearing his name she in an instant hugged mona aunt crying uncontrollably

Ri- he doesn't loves me, he doesn't loves me…she cried bitterly all the while murmuring this..

Aunt mona removed her out from her embrace and cupping her face she asked her

Aunt mo- who is it? Ridzi tell me….thou she had an inkling on who the person is where as muskaan knew about whom she was talking…

Riddhima was continuous crying….

Aunt mo- ridzi tell me now who 'is it….she demanded

Riddhima with weeping eyes looked at her n spoke in a whisper "Armaan" closing her eyes in pain she felt in her heart…

Muskaan too stared crying seeing her sister going thru such pain….

Now mona aunt's doubts were cleared she had seen before in ridzi's eyes the love for armaan but armaan..

Aunt mo- am so sorry my baby, pls top crying I will speak to armaan… she assured her

Ri- no aunt pls don't do that you won't speak to him …pls no he doesn't loves me that's the fact & we can do nothing about it , promise me u won't tell him anything…she pleaded to her

Aunt mo- ok ridzi I promise, but tell us what transpired between your'll, I need to know….

She remained silent.

Aunt mon- listen ridzi ilove you as my child and armaan is my son, try and understand I need to know…

And with continuous tears and a heavy heart she told them everything what happened between her and armaan…

She finished telling them with a fresh bout of tears flowing from her eyes..

Mona aunt was more worried for both now, first he thought she has to calm riddhima than she'll see if anything can b be done….she cupped her face in her hands n spoke- Ridzi stop crying everything will be fine, you trust us right, now come lets have dinner..

Ri- I trust u aunt but pls don't force me to have dinner….

Aunt Mo- ok fine for my sake now go to sleep …she helped riddhima on her bed and tucked her carefully & kissed her lovingly on her forehead….switching of the lights they both exited from the room with a worried expression only to notice both uncle Richie and Rahul outside riddhima's room with a expression they have heard everything…

Muskaan quckly went and hugged rahul..

Ra- muski stop crying pls… he tried consoling her..

Mu- I can't see her in this state all broken first sameer and now armaan……she said weeping.

Un Ric- Rahul go take muskaan outside and take care of her..

Rahul nodded and took her with him…

Aunt Mo- now what will happen am so scared for both of them….she said worriedly

He hugged n console her

Un Ri- I'll spk to him tomm… he sighed

Mon- no , ridzy won't like it, she promised me not to spk to him about this, no things would get more complicated…she spoke anxiously.

Un Ri- Mona do you trust me…he asked her

Mo- with my life…she said straight away.

Un Ri- I didn't promise u did so let me speak to him, he is our son and as a father I need to make him understand some things, he can't live his life with the past boring into his present, I don't know if he loves ridzi or no but I can't ignore or repent later to the fact that atleast I tried once and we can do this atleast for our son for both….he supported her..

She smiled and hugged her husband hoping that this Christmas will bring with it the love to last for their children….

Armaan entered his home where only he and his loneliness existed, looking at his house it still looks the same, the same furniture , same walls and the same interiors & the same he all alone in this big house, even when his parents were there he felt same isolation of what he felt now he was used to this lonely life but how and why at this moment that the isolation is killing him, how he wished someone wud be there right beside him embracing him, loving him, he closed his eyes as the picture of her came in front of his eyes..Riddhima'.. he spoke ina whisper with fat tears making its way out…he remembered hw he had seen her on the beach n ws awestruck by her simple beauty, their first meeting, her laughter, her crazy talks which she used to blabber non stop, her nervousness when he used to stare at her and her concern & love for him which he had seen so clearly in her eyes, only he didn't want to believe..he remembered everything abt him hw could he not she ahs made a place in his heart which he had closed for so long, he smiled remembering their memories but soon it withered away as he spoke to himself.." I can't do this to you riddhima, I can't give you the love which u expect from me, coz m not meant to be loved i was only born only to live alone all my life..tears pouring out from his eyes like a flood, when my own parents didn't' love me maybe its my fault that's why they never showered their love on me, am nt worth of u riddhima you deserve someone better who will give you all the happiness of the world". Saying this he slid on the floor crying his heart out…defeated that's what he felt….

24^th Dec

All were sitting silently eating their breakfast not knowing what to talk, riddhima was feeling uncomfortable she didn't wanted to be sad or cry which she could do any moment so she spoke first..

Ri- aunty nice chicken sandwich its really tasty.. she spoke and passed a small smile to her..

All looked at her and felt bad for her state but none wanted to make her feel awkward so muskaan spoke

Mus- yeah mona aunt its delicious , hope I don't eat my fingers…..she joked

While others laughed riddhima passed a warm smile towards muskaan knowing what she is trying to do. She finished her breakfast n quickly got up to leave only to be interrupted by uncle Richie.

Ric Uncle- ridzi wait…..

Ri- wait even am coming with u will go together..

Riddhima looked at him confused & bit scared but seeing her face he spoke..

Un Ric- I have some imp restaurant work with armaan …he told her skeptically hoping that she believes him..

Rid- ok uncle lets go…she said a bit unsure…

Rahul- me & muski will join u later…..saying their byes they left...

The ride towards the venue was short of talk with only uncle Richie speaking and riddhima replying in a word, the whole ride for riddhima was bit hazy with only the flashes of yesterday night playing like a film in front of her eyes trying her evry bit to control her emotions, as they reached the venue, she told ncle Richie to move ahead as she will come a bit later understanding her situation he left her alone and went inside.

Riddhima closed her to regain her composure but in vain as a tear escaped from her eyes thinking she has to face him, thou she knew nothing would be the same for her now, again she reprimanded herself sha has to be brave and control her feelings do it for the children and fr her family saying a small prayer to give her the strength to carry on for these most difficult days, sighing she went inside only to be a bit relieved as she didn't see him only the workers who were working in full force, she hurriedly left to carry on her work..

Armaan made his way to his cabin tired and exhausted with the emotional turmoil in his life, thou he didn't had the courage to face her but he has to do it for the children and he's ready to take her anger on him, he'll take it because he deserves it…..

He entered his cabin only to be greeted by his dad

Un Ri- hey armaan good morning..

Ar- good morning dad.. he said meekly and went ahead n hugged his dad…,dad everything alright, mom's fine….he questioned him

Un Ri- yea armaan everything's fine don't worry just came to meet my son..

Armaan looked at him confused

Un Ri- arrey wat ur thinking can't I come to meet you don't I have that right on you…

Ar- dad pls I didn't mean it that way you know that…

Un Ri- Yes I know…he smiled at him….

Armaan smiled and they both sat on the sofa, Uncle Richie looked at armaan who was looking so lost he didn't miss his swollen eyes and the pain so clearly etched on his son's face , he thought he ahs to speak to him very clearly n carefully as he doesn't want armaan to get hurt in anyway possible but firstly he has to make him open out his feelings…. He shook armaan out of his thoughts..

Un Ri- did u had ur breakfast… he asked him..

Ar- no dad I don't feel like having…..

Un Ri- am ordering for u, I won't listen to u…….

Armaan tried reasoning but he knew his dad very well too…

Armaan silently finished his breakfast…

Un Ric- armaan u look tired lets go for a walk on the beach, you will feel better

Ar- but dad therz lot of work…..he tried explaining

Un ric- no ifs and buts come on.. armaan couldn't ay no to his dad and they both made their way towards the beach, they strode on the beach silently with none speaking for armaan all the happening of yest night replayed again in front of his eyes where as for uncle Richie stopped in his tracks he was getting more anxious looking at armaan and his behavior, while armaan obvious to the surrounding continued walking…

Un Ric- Armaan he called out to him….armaan was so occupied in his thoughts he didn't hear, uncle Richie called out to him again…

Armaan felt a hand on his shoulder he turned to look at his dad who was panting heavily…

Ar- dad are u ok? Why ar you panting…he asked worriedly

But he couldn't speak coz of his heavy breathing, armaan took him to a nearby bench & ran to bring water for him…

After sumtime uncle Richie felt better…

Ar- dad why were u running?..

Un Ri- son am ok, just I had stopped & was calling out to u but u didn't hear my voice so tht's why…

Ar- am sorry dad, I was just lost…. He couldn't spk any further as he stood head bowed down blaming himself for it.

Un Ri- armaan come sit next to me, he passed a smile to him shaking his head ver well knowing what this stupid boy thinking and without witing any further he spoke.

Un Ric- You love Riddhima….he stated

Armaan looked at his dad in shock he couldn't utter a word only his expressive face showed the answer which his dad wanted to hear from him..

After controlling his emotions he put a straight face n spoke

Ar- No I don't love her dad..

Un Ri- but I can see something else in ur eyes…

Ar- no dad its nothing like that n pls I don't wanna talk about this anymore..he said a bit angrily..

Un Ri- for how long you'll keep running from ur feelings & from this thing called Love, for such a long time me & ur mom waited that one day you'll find the love of ur life but u stayed away from everyone but now even if u try hiding ur feeling u can't coz u have fallen in Love…he confronted him pointly..

Ar- dad pls pls stop I, I have seen the love of what ur talking about have seen all my life in the form of my parents , fighting there's no love just need necessity and nothing…. He said angrily

Un Ri- sighed n spoke armaan you can't be so judgmental all ur life I know what u have gone thru ur childhood , but there are many people in this world searching for their soul mate their love, and have you not seen the love I have for ur mom is it not that obvious than I think I will have to start expressing my love more openly right…he smiled at him n spoke..

Ar- dad any blind person can see the love which you have for mom, he teased his dad, its just that I feel I don't deserve her love….he said sadly

Un Ri- and who are you to tell, armaan you deserve all the love in this world, stop beating yourself for all the wrong things which have happened in ur life , that's life everything is not a bed of roses bad things will happen to u to anyone, you just have to leave behind everything and rise above ur past to embrace your future with whole heart.give ur life a chance, think about it its your life son, but it also kills us to see you in this state., ok now I'll leave have to help ur mom in making Christmas sweets. He hugged him. we love u…. tc

Ar- thnks dad love u too…. Tell mom I'll come to eat the sweets…. He smiled n his dad left from there….

Sitting on the bench again he continued to gaze at the sea, his eyes darted off towards a couple sitting on the beach the lady was feeding the man while they both smiled looking at each other, he couldn't help but he felt something awry, just than he saw the couple getting up th lady helped the man , that d when he realized the man had only one hand, but that didn't matter o them as he saw both headed owards the beach walking hand in hand, at that moment he realized yes this is love, he was astonished at the love he was witnessing , taers made made its way out as he realized his dad's words & riddhima, After a while he felt light and clear on now what he wanted to do, a smile graced his lips and in an instant he removed his mobile and dialed a number..

Ar- Hello rahul, can I meet u…

The next part continued in the next post

25^th December

Both Armaan & Riddhima , muskaan 7 rahul and all the workers were busy with final impending work from morning till late afternoon, riddhima tried her level best to ignore armaan in these 2 days, after monitoring everything they were finally content with result and soon all left to their respective homes to get ready for the day. Riddhima made sure everything is in place as she knows how important this event is for armaan.

Rahul's attire

Muskaan's attire

Armaan's attire

Riddhima's attire

At 7.30pm

The guess stared arriving at the venue, Rahul & Muskaan were greeting the guests at the entrance of the hall.

Ra- Muskaan ur looking beautiful'he said totally mesmerized by her beauty

Mus- finally u noticed'. She complained o him

Ra- I Love you he said n kissed her hand

Mus- I love u too'both were gazing in each other eyes

Their trance was broken by some noise.

Ar- cough, cough' so lovebirds if ur'll are done so can ur'll pls carry on welcoming the guests'.he teased them..

Mus- armaan I think u should give imp to whom u know na'..she trailed off

Ar- stop making me nervous,, I hope rahul everything is taken care..

Ra- don't worry & all the best'..he hugged him

Ar- where is riddhima?...he questioned muskaan

Mus- well she is coming with uncle & aunt'hey here they are'

Just than uncle Richie & aunt mona entered who looked beautiful in red & white sari & uncle Richie looking dapper in a white suit..

UN Ri- armaan congratulations'

AR- thanx dad'.he went & hugged him.

Aunt Mo- armaan ur looking so handsome'

Ar- mom u too are looking gorgeous, he kissed her on cheek & hugged her tightly, mom I hope ada didn't fell on the floor seeing you he teased her again..

Aunt mo- I so hope and they both stared laughing'

Just than he saw her entering the venue with poise , his voice got caught in his throat as he looked at her dressed in the red gown sure to kill him he thought, the gown perfectly draped on her slender figure she looked absolutely stunning, with her hair perfectly styled & her face glowed tonight but something was amiss yes those lively brown eyes looked dead with zero emotions & he knows the reason, she saw him staring at her, she became immobile with his eyes stuck on her drowning again in those eyes, but she quickly gathered herself & went passed him to join muskaan & rahul.

Soon all the guests were seated they all looked at the hall in awe which looked nothing short of magical, as the tables in white were placed on the either sides of the hall with a small paper lantern giving on a sereneful& the red & white drapes floed elegantly and he lights adding a touch of its own..

Riddhima sat with her family members together where as armaan took a seat opposite them'.

Soon the compere arrived on stage..

Com- Ladies & Gentleman I welcome u all to this lovely evening f joy & happiness, now I would like to call on our beloved uncle Richie & the man with a heart of gold Armaan mallik to come on stage raise the toast for the evening..

Both arrived on stage as the guests clapped'

Un Ri- Firstly I wanna thank u all for coming & gracing us with ur presence for this noble cause, now on behalf of my son armaan & my beautiful wife'

"So here's wishing you all happiness

Than all my words can tell

Not just alone for Christmas

But for all the year as well", Merry Christmas everyone"

All- Merry Christmas

While all the others were occupied with the speech, armaan's eyes were fixed only on riddhima..

Com- So now as per the tradition we would like to call uncle Richie & Aunt mona on the dance floor to start the first dance & the song is " I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston..

As the song played all looked at the ageless couple in awe, but for riddhima it was a unheal wound which bared with this song as she looked at armaan as the tears poured out from her eyes n soul'.

If I should stay,
I would only be in your way.
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you ev'ry step of the way.

And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
You, my darling you. Hmm.

Bittersweet memories
that is all I'm taking with me.
So, goodbye. Please, don't cry.
We both know I'm not what you, you need.

And I will always love you.
I will always love you.

(Instrumental solo)

I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of.
And I wish to you, joy and happiness.
But above all this, I wish you love.

And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I, I will always love you.

You, darling, I love you.
Ooh, I'll always, I'll always love you.

As The songs played all the couples joined the dance floor including muskaan 7 rahul, as the couples swayed on the beat of the music in the arms with their partner, riddhima's heart ached seeing the couples, she heard the compere's voice

Com- well this song which is coming up is a special dedication to someone by Armaan, "I Want to know what love is by Foreigner ", Listening his name she looked up at him, only to bore deep into his eyes as the song played armaan moved towards her table'..

Gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines ( as he reached her table he held out his hand for dance she looked at him in surprise, n unknowingly gave her hand & he lead her to the dance floor.)
In case I need it when I'm older

This mountain I must climb
Feels like a world up on my shoulders ( they both swayed to the music gazing in each other's eyes)
through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows coulder

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I want to know what love is (just than armaan started singing the line staking riddhima by surprise, tears were pouring from her eyes as she realized the meaning of the words)
I want you to show me
I want to feel what love is
I want you to show me
I want to feel what love is
I know you can show me

I'm gonna take a little
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I want to know what love is
I want you to show me
I want to feel what love is
I know you can show me ( tears flowed from both pair of eyes when armaan sang the last two lines)

As the song ended, both engulfed each other in a hug, & stood for like eternity oblivious to the world as the other couples swayed around them' they came out of the hug..

Ar- I love You, I have been such a fool to not realize ur love, but I promise you I will love u forever'.he poured out his heart in these simple words

Ri- I love You too Armaan more than anything in this world'she simply said and hugged him with all her mite'

Smiling they both came out of the hug only to be taken in a group hug by their family'.

Mona Aunt- ohh!! thank lord, this is the best Christmas'

Ar- no mom this is the best ever Christmas'he said gazing into riddhima's eyes..

All- awww'

Just than the compere arrived on stage n spoke..

Com- Ladies & gentlemen this is the last song for the evening, a song which depicts expressing ur love is not the end but it's the beautiful beginning of life, so common u people take the hand of ur partner and sway in love' I Want to Spend My lifetime Loving You by Marc Anthony & Tina Arena

Moon so bright, night so fine
Keep your heart here with mine
Life's a dream we are dreaming ( armaan & riddhima locked their arms with each other & swayed to the music of love)
Race the moon, catch the wind
Ride the night to the end
Seize the day, stand up for the light

I want to spend my lifetime loving you (they both stared into each other's eyes professing their love)
f that is all in life I ever do

Heroes rise, heroes fall
Rise again, win it all
In your heart, can't you feel the glory?

Through our joy, through our pain
We can move worlds again
Take my hand, dance the dance with me

I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I will want nothing else to see me through
If I can spend my lifetime loving you

Though we know we will never come again
Where there is love, life begins ( riddhima rested her head on near armaan's heart , closing their eyes they both rocked their body to the to the slow beat of love.)
Over and over again
Save the night, save the day
Save the love, come what may
Love is worth everything we pay
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I will want nothing else to see me through
If I can spend my lifetime loving you'.

As the song ended armaan caught riddhima's hand & took her towards the beach where the moon shone bright in the dark waters'..

Ri- armaan why are we here' she asked surprised'

He pulled her towards him n spoke- well this is the place where I realized my love for you, that day I didn't recognize what I was feeling, I mean I didn't know how to do it ' how to love, heck I didn't even think it existed but no one had ever made me feel that way before. He paused looking deep into her eyes

Ri- you know Shakespeare once said "Journeys end in lovers meeting" .

Ar- from where did Shakespeare come'he asked confused..

Ri- well to say that I believe that the journey of life starts in lovers meeting, I Love you armaan with all my heart with everything that's in me'..she sighed in happiness

Ar ' I love you too and now that I know what am feeling is love, Will you let me love you for the rest of your life'. She smiled with happy tears flowing from her eyes.

Ri- Yes Armaan, I'll marry you & together we'll learn how wonderful love is when its shared, when two soul becomes one.

Ar- Merry Christmas my love and he bends down to take her in a long, deep, giving passionate kiss'.
