PART 40
Ishq Leta Hai Kaise Imtehan
Ishq Leta Hai Kaise Imtehan
Ishq Mein Jiyoon
Ishq Mein Maroon
Ishq Hi Mera Bhagwan
(Fuming, Armaan walked towards his car and sat in his car...He hit his right palm on the steering wheel whispering an angry "Damn". Those hurtful memories came rushing back... Tears from Armaan's eyes never stopped...)
Hai Rabba
Tu Hi Meri Jaan
Tu Hi Jahan
Tu Hi Meri Manzil
Tere Ishq Mein
Mein Qurban
(Soon, Armaan was heading towards riddhima's house, restlessly he was driving back... recally every memory of Riddhima..)
Ishq Mein Deewangi Ki
Hadse Guzar Jaoon
Tere Pyaar Mein Aaj Mein
Jikar Maar Jaoon
Ishq Mein Jalte Hai Hum Raat Din
Ha, Yeh Mera Dil Na Maane
Tere Bin, Tere Bin
(Armaan drove as quickly as possible...Everyone and everything Armaan saw on his way, was a barrier between him and Riddhima...)
Hai Rabba
Tu Hi Meri Jaan
Tu Hi Jahan
Tu Hi Meri Manzil
Tere Ishq Mein
Mein Qurban
(He was resolutely focused on meeting Riddhima as soon as possible. However fast he drove, The Gupta house seemed further away...!!!)
Sama Rahi Hai Tu
Jism Jaan Mein
Chali Jaye Gi Jaan Iss Imtehan Mein
Ab Mujh Ko Hai Maloom
Ke Tu Hai Mera Janoon
Ab Tu Hi Mera Rab Zindagi
Tujhse Hi Mera Sakoon
(Armaan reached The Gupta's house... a smile crept upon his face...knwing his wait will be soon over...)
Hai Rabba
Tu Hi Meri Jaan
Tu Hi Jahan
Tu Hi Meri Manzil
Tere Ishq Mein
Mein Qurban
Reaching Riddhima's house, Armaan looked shocked, The house seemed to be decorated beautifully, Varietes of coulourfull lights glittered from every corner of the house, adding immense beauty to the house, Elegant and Marvellously decorated...Armaan looked at the house...
Neverthe less Armaan slowly started climbing the pipe, He climed in Riddhima's balcony, He peeped into Riddhima's room, Armaan could see Riddhima's room was decorated beautifully, Walking towards the balcony door, Armaan was shocked to see Riddhima beside the bed, her head was on the bed, she was sleeping on the matress beside the bed... He froze in anguish, and shivered in disbelief. Panicing a little Arman opened the balcony door and slowly walked towards Riddhima...
The blank, emotionless expression swept over his face as the realization of the moment gradually seeped in. He could clearly see Riddhima's swollen eyes, and watching her, he knew Riddhima had cried a lot, He could see her dry tears on her pale cheeks... The fear seemed to rise behind his eyes, Paralyzed by the tragic feeling of isolation...Armaan was then suprised to see their photos, The same photo's which they had clicked with each other... It was all spread on the bed... he closed his eyes and gazed down at Riddhima's pale face. He felt the water creep out of his eyes,
Armaan sat on the floor, on his knees, filled with emotions and realization struck him...The tunes out his hearing in a way, so he could hear a haunting ringing in his ears and all he hears are the thoughts running through his head. The days they spent crying, hurt, every feeling was creeping more tears from Armaan's eyes...! Armaan saw Riddhima clutching onto a photo tightly even when she had falled asleep, She had held the photo in such a way than Armaan melted instantly watching the scene before him... He slowly took out the photo from her hands, It was his photo, A photo in which Armaan had flashed his million dollar smile, smiling brightly at the camera from his 1st concert in Mumbai... Armaan's eyes welled up, It started pouring heavily while Armaan was on his knees, Staring at Riddhima's condition, His heart wrenched in pain watching her in that state..
Armaan opened his mouth slightly and shaking like he wanted to wake up Riddhima, to say her truth, but he couldn't find the words. He didn't wanted to disturb Riddhima, wiping his own tear, Armaan bent down and picked up a sleeping Riddhima in his arms, slowly, carrying her gently, he laid Riddhima on the bed... Covering her in the duvet warmly, He kissed Riddhima on her forehead... As a reaction, Riddhima instantly had a slight smile playing around her lips, as if she knew Armaan was with her... Armaan's smile brightened more watching her smile in her sleep... Armaan turned around when he felt his hand was being gripped, Armaan turned around to see Riddhima holding on to Armaan's left hand securely in her right hand... Armaan smiled seeing her...,he pulled on to the couch beside the bed and sat on it... Riddhima seemed to sleep peacefully in her sleep... Armaan kept staring at her innocent face... Watching her, and before he knew Armaan fell asleep...!
After 2 hours, Riddhima slowly opened her eyes, revealing those beautiful eyes of her. Upon awakening, everything was very confusing, It took her a few seconds to realize exactly where she was, she turned to the other side, only to find Armaan sleeping in front of her. He looked so cute while he slept she thought... She also noticed that she had held his hand in her's firmly... Suddenly, her eyes jerked open, Riddhima sat up on the bed, leaving Armaan's hand... She was shocked finding him there before her, Riddhima stared at a sleeping Armaan in disbelief... Armaan felt the moment and opened his eyes, Watching Riddhima stare at him Armaan stood up, while Riddhima sat on the bed shocked and confused...
'Riddhima..' he whispered softy...
In a mere second, he sat beside Riddhima and hugged her.. Riddhima was taken aback with the sudden hug...His arms clasped around Riddhima, holding her in his embrace... Armaan looked so relieved having Riddhima in his arms, while Riddhima was too shocked to respond him, as warm tears flowed down from Armaan and Riddhima's cheeks... A moment later when Riddhima realised what she was doing, She pushed him away from herself and stood up firmly, Armaan stood up too and looked at her in anguish...
'Armaan, tum yaha kya kar rahe ho?...' She questioned looking elsewhere. 'Riddhima...' 'Armaan...please yaha se chale jao..'Riddhima spoke. 'Riddhima, please meri baat toh suno...' Armaan requested,... 'Riddhima, main tumhe sach batane aya hu...' Armaan spoke staring into Riddhima eyes, While riddhima didn't dare to look at him... 'Armaan, sach tum bhi jante ho aur main bhi... Aur..' 'Adha sach janti ho tum..' Armaan cut her off and spoke... 'Armaan, please mujhe kuch nahi sunna,...'Riddhima spoke and was walking away from Armaan, She walked passed him when he held her left hand... Their back was facing eachother...
'Riddhima,...' he said while he went and stood in front of Riddhima... Riddhima looked at him for a fraction of second and something deep within her asked her to just listen to him once... Riddhima turned herself , showing her back towards Armaan and kept quite, asking him to continue...Armaan heaved a sight of relief with Riddhima's gesture..
'Riddhima, us shaam jab tum mere ghar ayi thi, aur... aur jo kuch bhi tumne waha sunna woh sab ek natak tha..' Armaan spoke softly while Riddhima turned towards him and looked at him in disbelief... 'Riddhima, main sach keh raha hu, uss shaam maine jo kuch bhi kiya woh sirf tanya ki help karne ke liye kiya tha...' 'natak? help? Armaan tum...' 'Riddhima please, let me finish first...' he spoke while Riddhima kept quite...
'Riddhima,jis din main delhi se wapas aaya, Tanya ne mujhe call kiya, yeh keh kar ki usse meri help chahiye.. Riddhima... tanya meri bachpan ki dost hai... aur ussi nate se... main usse milne uske ghar gaya tha... Riddhima... i know yeh sab believe karna namumki hai... par.. Riddhima... Tanya ne mujhse request kiya ki... main... main uss Ricky ke samne uska boyfriend banne ka natak karu...' 'Ricky?..' Riddhima seemed to hear Armaan confusingly..
'Riddhima, Tum uss din sab kuch dekha bhi tha aur sunna bhi... Tumhe yaad hai waha mere aur Tanya ke saath ek aur insaan khada tha... He'z Ricky...' Riddhima remembered him and nodded her head in agreement.. 'Riddhima, Woh sab un dono ka plan tha hum dono ko alag karne ka plan..' Armaan spoke silently while Riddhima kept understanding him...,
'Plan? hume alag karke unhe kya..' 'Riddhima, Tanya mujhe chahthi thi... Usne yeh sab sirf mujhe paane ke liye kiya..' Armaan blurred out the truth, Riddhima's eyes widened hearing it.. 'Riddhima, mera yakeen maano, woh sab unki chaal thi... woh bas hamein alag karna chahte the..., Riddhima tanya aur mere beech kuch nahi hai... Woh sab ek dikhawa tha...' Armaan spoke..
Armaan went on and on while Riddhima was lost in deep thought, She remembered Tanya's and Armaan's dance, How she tried to create differences between them, and then the mall meet, How she said she is getting married to Armaan, How she spoke about Armaan using her for time pass, How in every stage of their life Tanya tried creating differences between them... Riddhima's anger was transforming into guilt..., she twisted, her face dropped in remorse... Ashamed and filled with regret, her eyes burned as sudden realization of the terrible event that had just occurred struck. Helpless, hopeless tears began to fall freely while her entire face scrunched up with pain and anguish..
Riddhima realised Armaan wasn't at fault at all from the start, She had asked Armaan to go away from her life, She had betrayed Armaan, his love, his trust, She was so much angry on him that she never tried to ask him or clarify her doubts, She had just believed whatever she saw and heard... she had avoided him for no reason, His love was pure from the start... Riddhima felt guilty on herself... Everything seemed to be clear now...
Horrow dawned on her face as she realised that it was Tanya's plan and her Armaan was never to be blamed of... Riddhima felt a sickening feeling, of self blame, hatred, regret, sadness, constantly in the back of her mind..., It was almost crushing Riddhima slowly. Ashamed and filled with regret, her eyes burned as she realised she never even tried to know the truth... She just did everything in anger...
'Riddhima, please mera yakeen karo, maine sab kuch record bhi kar kiya hai, tum chahe toh sun sakti ho... Woh sab unka hai idea tha.. aur main... maine anjane main woh sab kaha tha... Riddhima main tumse sacha pyaar karta hu... Riddhima kuch jawab do na... Riddhima... Riddhima tum sun rahi ho na...Riddhima kuch toh bolo...' Armaan spoke when he noticed that Riddhima wasn't paying attention to his talk and shook her off her thoughts, crying Riddhima looked up at Armaan with all the love in her eyes,.. Gathering herself she spoke..
'Ar... Armaan...' Riddhima whispered... Now looking at him. 'Riddhima... please mera yakeen mano.. mai...' he was cut off by Riddhima's words.. 'I am sorry Armaan...' Riddhima declared looking at him... Armaan looked shocked with Riddhima sudden confession.. 'Riddhima... yeh tum...' Armaan spoke confused...
'I am sorry Armaan, Maine tumpar yakeen nahi kiya.. Armaan main jane anjane... tumhe aur tumhare pyaar ko thukraya hai. maine ek bar bhi sachai nahi pata lagayi... Armaan i am so sorry, Maine yeh sab jan bujke nahi kiya... Yeh sab meri galati hai... Maine... Maine... Maine khud hi hum dono ko alag... Armaan I am sorry... really sorry Armaan...' Riddhima cried holding on to Armaan... and speaking in a chocking voice... 'Ssshhh..' Armaan held his finger on her lips, stopping her from regretting, stopping her from speaking more...
Riddhima stopped talking and looked at him... his eyes met hers... gazing at each other's eyes, all they could see were immense love for each other... The feeling of uncertainty or insecurity was dissappearing because They knew, they knew they can do anything together... There eyes were sparking with love... The pure love they shared...
Riddhima was mesmerized by his eyes. Armaan looked at Riddhima with his gleaming eyes... Riddhima stared at them for a while before Armaan pulled her closer towards himself to give her a hug. Armaan's embrace was warm, and his big, strong arms seemed very protective when wrapped around Riddhima's frail body...Riddhima could feel the strength in his arms as Armaan wrapped his arms around her, to trap her in his neverending warmth. As he embraces her, Riddhima felt as if her life was back, the blood pumping in his veins, and the warm breath coming off his lips made her feel safe . Riddhima sank her face into his chest as if to ask him to never let go of her as she put her arms around him, holding him tightly.. Riddhima smiled with twinkling tears falling from her eyes...Oppositions to their love had melted. Their chests rising and falling together, their breaths in unison, and the warm blood that they could feel in each others loving embrace...made them feel they were finally joined as One..! that no one could tear asunder ! It was heaven on earth for both Armaan and Riddhima...
It was like they had never been apart really, as they embraced with such intensity. Their arms clasped around each other and pressed their chests together, as warm tears flowed down their cheeks... This time it was due to pure bliss... Neither wanted to let go, and so they didn't... They didn't speak much... The hug seemed to comfort both of them... It spoke many unspoken words... It was as if they just knew what the other was feeling... Having each other in their arms made them feel like heaven... It was as if the their love was being tested and they won all the hurdles against them...It made them feel like the destiny indeed wanted them to be together always... It was as if the destiny had chosen them for each other... The seperation they had, surely had caused both of them a lot of hurt and pain... but comparatively, the seperation had brought them more closer than they were before... It was as if the seperation was needed to make them more strong... They were now more sure about each other...They came out of the hug, smiling like never before... Armaan wiped Riddhima's tears.. while She wiped away his tears with her hand and said to him
'I love you Armaan...' She said softly near is face... Armaan smiled at her, he felt content hearing those 3 magical words...
Armaan held Riddhima in his arms and brought himself closer to her. Riddhima closed her eyes, giving him full authority over herself... Armaan smiled watching Riddhima's small gestures... He so loved her very much...He looked at her trembling lips and slowly captured them, with his own. He kissed her gently, yet lovingly. His hand went down to her waist and pulled her closer, crashing their body against each other... while her hands went around his neck holding him tight... The kiss described how much they wanted each other... How much they had waited for this day...He slowly left her lips and looked at her.. Riddhima's eyes were closed...Armaan's smiled at her and kissed her forehead gently... and placed his forehead against hers. He cupped a side of her face. and whispered softly against her lips..
'Aankhen kholo Riddhima, Jo insaan tumhe sabse zyada pyar karta hai, woh tumhaare saamne khada hai...' He spoke with all the love... Riddhima slowly opened her eyes and smiled at him while Armaan kissed her both hands.. 'Ab... Armaan aur Riddhima ko koi bhi alag nahi karsakta...'He spoke hugging her.. 'Kabhi nahi...' Riddhima said softly.
Armaan detached himself from Riddhima... Riddhima looked confused at Armaan's behavior, she looked confusingly at him... Armaan sat on his knees... He captured Riddhima's left hand in his Right ... Looking up at Riddhima he gave his warm smile to her.. Riddhima smiled back at him, little confused...
'Riddhima...'he spoke looking straight into Riddhima's eyes, grabbing her attention completely... Riddhima looked at him smilingly..
'Mein Armaan Malik..Riddhima Gupta se vaada karta hu..ki mein tumse bahut pyaar karta hu... Aur apni puri zindagi sirf tumse hi pyaar karta rahunga..Humesha..Kabhi bhi tumhare dil ko dukhaoga nahi..Kabhi bhi tumhare chahre par udasi nahi aane dunga..Riddhima Gupta..kya tum mera sath dongi...Har mausam mein..Dhup mein.. Chhow mein...Acche waqt mein...Bure waqt mein...Har din...Har pal..Kya tum humesha mere sath rahogi..? Bolo na.. Riddhima Gupta I love you...kya tum mera saath dogi??...' Armaan proposed Riddhima in the most beautiful way possible, he poured his heart out in front of her... Riddhima had tears of joy in her eyes... 'Ha... Armaan... I love you too...' Riddhima spoke and made made stand up... She tears of joy flowing from her eyes... 'I love you too Riddhima..' 'I love you...' she spoke yet again...
'And i love you tooo...' Armaan spoke... both smiled together...Riddhima hugged him, hiding herself in his embrace... Armaan hugged her back... 'I love you too Riddhima...'
'I love you..' she spoke yet again... 'And i love you tooo...' Armaan spoke and both smiled together...Riddhima hugged him, hiding herself in his embrace... Armaan hugged her back... The world blurring out from their world...
