From The Time I Saw You - An AR FF -
Part 86
5 MONTHS LATER
Armaan sleep was disturb hearing some noise, he try to adjust his eyes to the sudden light with his hand moving on the bed trying to get hold of Riddhima... When he couldn't get her warm, he look his side to see it was empty... Wondering where she could be early as it was Sunday, Armaan make sure they didn't leave the room before 10 am...
Armaan stay like that till he could fully be awake, he move his eyes around the room to see Riddhima standing in front of the mirror getting ready... Armaan just smile seeing how beautiful she was looking in a white dress, he was lost in her as a dreamy smile on his lips...
Riddhima who was getting ready felt someone strong gaze, she didn't need to move her eyes to see it was her dearest husband... Ignoring his gaze for a reason, Riddhima quickly put her hair in to a ponytail which make Armaan frown as he loves to see her with hair left open flying around her gorgeous face...
'Let it be open Mrs. Mallik...' Armaan said getting her attention as he wasn't aware that Riddhima had already felt his gaze on her...
Usually, Riddhima would question back but seeing her quiet again the frown was back on Armaan face... Leaving the comfortable warm bed, Armaan move out to see Riddhima behaving a little different today... Riddhima didn't look towards him usually she would do ones he is awake...
Armaan felt something was troubling her but his mind couldn't register what it could be... Avoiding Armaan, Riddhima move to the wardrobe and took out his cloths... Without a single word, Riddhima turn to leave but Armaan hold her hand making her stop but till stood with her back towards him...
Armaan move in front of her, looking at her face hoping to see in her eyes what was about this sudden change of behavior... Armaan really didn't understand what has suddenly happen because they had spend a romantic night the previous night being in each other arms till they fall asleep...
When Riddhima avoid looking at him and specially his eyes not letting Armaan look at her's, Armaan put his finger on her chin making her look towards him... Riddhima gave a force smile which didn't reach to her eyes and Armaan felt that his heart skip a beat feeling something different in her eyes...
'What happen...?? Aaj itni jaldi kaise ut gayi, aur mujhe good morning wish bhi nehi kiya na mere taraf ek baar dekha...' Armaan asked softly, caring her cheek softly with his thumb...
'Woh mujhe di ki ghar jaana hai, yaad haina aaj Atul jiju ka birthday hai... Mujhe decoration mein Di ki help karni hai.. Aur Jiju bhi shaam koh aayenge toh di akele hai ghar pe...' Riddhima said holding the fake smile on her face...
'I know Riddhima but...' Armaan was cut by Riddhima...
'Armaan, kuch nehi huva... Main bas jaldi mein hun issiliye, tum bhi tayyar hokar aajana...' Riddhima said moving his hand away from her face...
'Wait for me, I will quickly get ready and we can leave after breakfast...' Armaan said...
'Nehi Armaan, main waha jaakar kuch khalungi... Tum breakfast karke aajana, aur di ne tumhe ek list bheja hai... Usmein jo hai woh sab le aana please...' Riddhima said...
'haan but tohda...' Armaan was again cut by Riddhima...
'I love you...' Riddhima whisper giving a quick peck on his lips making him shut...
Riddhima knows, Armaan would be under the charm till she is out from the room... So taking the advantage, Riddhima escape letting Armaan get ready for the day, do the shopping by himself before reaching to Atul house...
Armaan came back to sense but by the time Riddhima has left the room, now Armaan was sure that something was disturbing her but what, he really couldn't pin point... Armaan look around the room as he miss her already, he quickly got in to the washroom to get ready and meet his wife...
It was almost two years to their marriage, till their love blossom like they just fall for each other... It keeps getting deeper and stronger every passing seconds of their life being each other soul mates... Both feel lucky and bless to have each other in their life and they were planning to add one more in their list to keep their relation stronger than it was now...
As their second anniversary was around the corner, Armaan was thinking what he could do to make it special for her... They had been really busy due to work that they hardly get time with each other, so much stress and tension but still they manage to be in each other arms at night so all those things would fly away from their body...
Armaan was busy making plans as he took shower, before coming out he found something on the wash-base which he didn't seen before as he was so lost in his own land... Thinking what it was laying there, he move to have a look..
Than it stuck on his mind why Riddhima had been running away from him, why she was avoiding him... Armaan close his eyes as finally he felt what Riddhima must be feeling at this moment... Leaving the thing where it was kept, Armaan quickly move out to the room and got ready to see his wife knowing he needs to be with her...
ATUL HOUSE
Riddhima reach to hear a loud crying from inside the house, she quickly run inside to see Anjali holding the five month old Anjul who was a copy of his mother and father... For some reason, he had been very cracky at this time of the morning and taking the whole house under his control...
Hearing footsteps, Anjali look around and was glad to see Riddhima coming... Anjali was rocking Anjul in her arms but he kept crying giving a hard time to Anjali... Riddhima smile seeing how Anjali was having a hard time to control the little fellow, worried lines where visible on Anjali forehead telling her it been quiet sometimes he had been crying like that...
'Kiya huva masi ki rajkumar koh haan...' Riddhima asked taking Anjul in her arms...
'Thank god tum aagayi Ridzy, sambhalo apne nephew koh... Taka diya mujhe, abhi toh din shuru bhi nehi huva tik se... Iske yehi harkat rahe toh hogaya sab kaam Atul ke aane se pehle...' Anjali complain...
'Di, hojaenge sab kaam waqt pe... Aap kyun itna pareshan ho rahe ho, sab aa rahe haina aapke help karne...' Riddhima said rocking Anjul in her arms, who hide himself in her chest as he got hold of Riddhima wedding chain...
'Phir bhi Ridzy, dekho tumhare paas jaate hi kaise shaant hogaya... Atul nehi hote toh mujhe isko sambhalna mushkil hoti hai kabhi kabhi...' Anjali said taking his milk bottle which was empty...
'Aap tohdi der ke liye rest karo Di, jab sab aaenge tab hum kaam shuru kardenge...' Riddhima said...
'Waise, tum itni jaldi kaise aagaye Ridzy... I mean 11 bhaje tak aana ta aur abhi toh sirf 9 bhaje hai...' Anjali asked...
'Mujhe toh apne rajkumar se milna ta, issiliye aagayi..' Riddhima said looking at Anjul who was enjoying sucking the wedding chain of Riddhima resting his head close to her chest...
'Isko pata nehi kyun tumhare mangalsutra itna pasand hai, jab dekho apne muh mein daalte hai...' Anjali said caring Anjul hair...
'Kyunki woh apne masi se bohot pyar karte hai, haina baby...' Riddhima said moving Anjul away from her and tickling his tummy making him smile...
'Chalo tum dono beito, main breakfast laga ti hoon...' Anjali said...
'Nehi di, aap karlo...' Riddhima said...
'Kyun..??? Tumne itni jaldi breakfast bhi karli...???' Anjali asked moving towards the kitchen but stop when Riddhima deny...
'Nehi, mujhe abhi bhuk nehi hai... Main baad mein karlungi...' Riddhima said...
'Waise, tumhari woh pati dev kaha hai... Tum akele aaye ho kiya Ridzy...' Anjali asked not finding Armaan around Riddhima who used to move like a lost puppy all the time he gets to be with his wife...
'Woh jo saamaan aapne laane koh kaha, woh lekar aajaenge...' Riddhima said playing with Anjul not looking at Anjali...
Anjali felt something missing in her voice as she talk about Armaan which usually didn't happen... Anjali knows how much they are still in love with each other and the mention of Armaan's name, Riddhima expression would change making her face flush...
Today, for some reason that was missing from her voice as well in her face... Anjali thought to question but let it be knowing Riddhima wouldn't easily share anything about her personal space with Armaan... So giving her sometimes, knowing at the end she would come to her for advice, Anjali left to make breakfast knowing once Armaan enter the house, he would make Riddhima have her meal...
IN MALL
Armaan was roaming around, getting everything Anjali had written on the list which she has send him... Rahul and Muskaan were helping him along with Sapna so they could go back to Atul house as quickly as they collect the stuff which would be needing for the surprise party for Atul...
After an hour, they finished and make their way towards Atul house... Muskaan call asking Anjali if she has make any food because she was starving... When Anjali told she had make breakfast for all, so they could eat something before they start the work Muskaan happily keep thanking her until Anjali cut the call asking to get in the house quickly...
While Muskaan and Sapna were excited for the party and also to meet Anjul, Armaan was being quiet while Rahul were busy in his mobile... Seeing how Armaan wasn't making any conversation unless it's needed, Rahul thought to ask him once they reach Atul house...
So as soon as he pull in front of the house, Muskaan and Sapna left letting the guys take the shopping bags inside... Rahul got his opportunity to talk with Armaan, who for some reason were lost in his own world...
'Kiya huva, itna shaant kaise tu...' Rahul ask as they got the bag...
'Kuch nehi...' Armaan said...
'Kuch toh hai, batana kiya huva... Yeh toh tumne kehdiya Riddhima humse pehle aagayi yaha lekin kyun... I mean tere saath aane ke liye kyun nehi rokha usne, jhagda huva hai kiya...' Rahul ask being concern for his friends...
'Nehi Rahul, tum jaante haina hum dono kabhi faltu mein nehi jhagadte... Woh toh Anjali koh help chahiyeh ti issiliyeh woh jaldi aagayi...' Armaan said avoiding eye contact...
'Dekh Armaan, tu jab jhut bolte hai toh bohot gatiya bolte ho issiliye koshish bhi mat kar... I know something is bothering you, if its too personal I wouldn't ask... Lekin jo bhi ho, Riddhima ke saath baat karke clear kardena.. Tum aise bilkul accha nehi lagta...' Rahul said...
'Haan mujhe bhi ab baat karna hoga, pata nehi kab tak yeh chalega...' Armaan said...
'Anything serious...???' Rahul asked feeling the pain in Armaan voice...
'Nehi, main sambhalunga...' Armaan said...
'That's like my best buddy, The Armaan Mallik...' Rahul said patting his back as they move inside...
As soon as they enter the house, they saw Muskaan attacking the food without waiting for anyone else, not for her husband either... Riddhima was sitting with Anjul in her arms as he had fallen asleep after playing with his favorite aunt for an hour or so...
Keeping the bags in the hall, Rahul move to the dinning area where Sapna and Anjali were with Muskaan... Armaan look at Riddhima, who was stroking Anjul hair being lost in her own world without realizing Armaan present...
Armaan let a deep breath knowing what he had to do, he move taking the seat next to her making Riddhima trace break and look at him with surprise expression... Armaan gave a kiss on her temple as he put his arm around her shoulder and than drop a kiss on Anjul hair who was sleeping holding his aunt...
'Tum kab aaye...' Riddhima asked when Armaan look back to her...
'Abhi, jab tum kissi ki khayalon mein khoyi ti... Waise I know woh koi aur nehi, main hun right...' Armaan said giving her his best dimple smile...
Riddhima gave a small smile to him, Armaan knows it would take sometimes Riddhima to believe it wasn't the right time for them yet... Armaan knows how she felt every month at this date, how much he try to make her understand it would be fine she end up being upset...
Knowing she would just need him by her side, Armaan slowly rubbed his hand on her arm... Riddhima who was holding herself from last two hours, couldn't help but let the tears fall from her eyes very well understand Armaan knows the reason of her behavior towards him...
'Sshhh, it's ok Riddhima... Kyun itna upset ho rahe ho, sab tik hojaenge... I promise...' Armaan said as she hide her face on Armaan neck still holding Anjul in her arms...
When Anjul move in his sleep, Riddhima move out from Armaan and stood up to let Anjul in his room so he could sleep without any disturbance... Armaan look around to see others busy in breakfast, Armaan knows he needs to have a conversation with Riddhima so she would feel better and enjoy rest of the day...
So with Riddhima, Armaan also left and wait for Riddhima to come out making Anjul comfortable on his bed.. Making sure he was in deep slumber, Riddhima move out to see Armaan waiting for him... It was hard for Riddhima to control her emotions which leads the tears to leak out from her eyes...
Armaan just move ahead and took Riddhima in to comfort hug, moving his hand slowly on her back... Riddhima stood hiding her face on crook of Armaan neck, she try not to let the voice come out... Armaan could feel his shirt getting wet but he knows, it would be best for her...
They stood like that for sometimes, than Armaan break the hug and took Riddhima out to the garden... Sitting on the swing which was outside with different plants around the small area Atul had decorated specially for lovers, Armaan sit on the swing pulling Riddhima on his lap...
Riddhima didn't protest as she put her hands around Armaan neck and hide herself in his arms, where she feel most peaceful and protective... They just didn't need of the words at the moment, being close to each other, hear each other heartbeat and feel each other warm were enough them to believe they belong to each other...
Armaan was moving his hand slowly on Riddhima back and keeps dropping kisses on Riddhima temple and hair everything than and now, to let her know everything would be fine when they are with each other...
'I think we need a break...' Armaan said at last breaking the silent...
Riddhima move out from him, looking at his face being horrified with Armaan words... Riddhima knows, she is being idiot to react like that but never thought, Armaan would wait a break due to her behavior...
'Break from those unnecessary stress and works...' Armaan said very well reading the lines behind Riddhima worried expression...
'Armaan, tum...' Riddhima was relief to hear he didn't mean taking a break from their relation...
'Riddhima, I know it's a hard time for us... From last five months we are trying and still we aren't getting a positive result but it was you who said to me that it might take few months right...' Armaan said...
'I know Armaan, I m being unnecessary like a emotional fool...' Riddhima said going back to the position she had been from last few minutes...
'Riddhima, I know u are desperately waiting for our baby... Believe me, I m too but we can't do anything because its not in only our hand... Just to make you feel better, hum dono ne test bhi karwaya last month... Everything is normal, its just that god is taking sometimes... Just to make it perfect for us, like we our relation is perfect...' Armaan said...
'I know Armaan, its just that every time our hopes get crash down that make me feel worst...' Riddhima said...
'That's why I m telling you, we need a break... From work, from stress... I think we should go away from this atmosphere for sometimes and spend as much as time with each other... Due to work, we hardly get time for our-self...' Armaan said...
'Are you asking for a second honeymoon Mr. Mallik...???' Riddhima ask moving away as she look at Armaan face...
How much Riddhima felt bad after getting a negative result every month related to pregnancy, Armaan always make it easy for her with his love and care... That's why, Riddhima easily could move on but never forget it till for a week or so because they were too much eager to have another soul in their life...
Armaan smile seeing how Riddhima was trying to move on, the sake of their love to each other... Hoping one day, their dream would come true until they stay with each other... So taking the opportunity make his beautiful wife smile, Armaan thought share what's in his mind for their coming anniversary...
'Of course, ab dekho... Kuch din baad humhara anniversary hai which I know u wouldn't dare to forget so if by chance I forget than u can taunt me...' Armaan said with a grin on his face...
'Armaan...' Riddhima said hitting his chest softly making Armaan grin turn to a smirk as Riddhima cheeks color turn dark red...
'Exactly, I wish to see that blush on your face wifey... U know how beautiful and ho...' Armaan was cut by Riddhima...
'I know, so what were you saying back Mr. Mallik...' Riddhima ask hiding her face back on Armaan neck as she play with Armaan shirt button...
'Yeah so I was thinking, it would be a good opportunity that we go for another round of honeymoon...' Armaan said kissing her forehead as he complete his sentence...
'Hmmm...' Riddhima said hugging him close to her, just to feel his warm making her believe how lucky she is to have him in her life...
'Just a hmmm, not done Riddhima... Main yaha tumhe itna accha idea de raha hoon aur tum ho ki, interest hi nehi ho...' Armaan said enjoying their closeness...
'Armaan, it would be my pleasure to take a break from work and spend sometimes with my husband...' Riddhima said...
'Pakka na, baad mein mat kehna maine tumein bataya nehi...' Armaan said moving out from the hug and looking at her face...
'Nehi kahungi, when I get a chance to be with my husband without sharing him with anyone else, how can I deny the chance right...' Riddhima said putting her palm on Armaan cheek...
Armaan smile hearing how much love she has in her heart for him, he hold Riddhima hand which was resting on his cheek and kiss her palm making Riddhima smile... Armaan look at Riddhima and move his face close to her to steal a kiss but Riddhima put her hand on his lips...
'Armaan, sab andar hai... Chalo breakfast karte hai, phir kaam bhi toh karna hai...' Riddhima said trying to move out from his lap...
'Not so soon wifey, I m hungry but before that, I need my dose of my morning kiss..' Armaan said not leaving her as his arms move on her waist...
'Armaan, kyun zid kar rahe ho...' Riddhima asked looking at him...
'Arey, zid kaha kar raha hun, mera hak maang rahi hoon... De rahe ho ya main khud le lun...' Armaan asked...
'Tum nehi maanonge na...' Riddhima asked looking at him...
'Bilkul nehi, yeh toh humhara deal ta na... Main tumhe tang nehi karunga if you give me my dose of kisses four times a day...' Armaan said...
'Tum pura paagal ho...' Riddhima said...
'Only because of you honey, now common give me my kiss and u r free to go...' Armaan said putting his hand on her nape holding her face close to him...
Riddhima knows it was no use of arguing with him because at the end, she will loose herself in him... So when Armaan move to close the distance between their lips, Riddhima didn't pull away and let him have which is belong to him...
Armaan seal Riddhima lips in to a promising kiss as he slowly sucks her lower lips, Riddhima also respond as they share a slow and sweet kiss, promising each other to love till their last breath... Be each other side, till the end without letting anything break them apart...
INSIDE,
DINNING AREA
As Anjali finished having her breakfast, she look around to see Armaan and Riddhima missing from the hall... She didn't bother to call them as Anjul was sleeping in Riddhima's arms so Anjali didn't feel to let his sleep get disturb knowing it would take sometimes him to be in deep slumber...
When Anjali look towards the hall, Rahul follow her gaze and understood she must be looking for the love birds... Muskaan was too lost in the food while Sapna was telling Muskaan about Amit as they finally decide to get married...
So thinking to ask about Riddhima, who has come earlier before any of them Rahul look back Anjali who was about to move towards the hall to call Armaan and Riddhima for breakfast...
'Ek minute Anjali...' Rahul stop him getting her attention...
Muskaan and Sapna also look towards him, wondering what happen to him and why he was stopping Anjali... Anjali look towards him who wipes his hand as he was also done with breakfast.. When the girls look towards him, Rahul smile knowing what must be going in their minds...
'Woh tumse Riddhima ke baare mein kuch puchna hai...' Rahul said clearing the reason he stop Anjali...
'Ridzy koh kiya huva...???' Muskaan ask looking towards the hall...
'Wohi toh main puchna chahta hun, Riddhima ne kuch kaha tumse Anjali..???' Rahul asked...
'Nehi, kuch huva hai kiya...???' Anjali asked...
'Waise hai kaha Ridz aur Armaan, breakfast ke liye kyun nehi aaya...' Sapna ask...
'Hoga yehi kahin, as usual apne romance mein busy...' Muskaan said...
'Armaan ke baaton se toh lagta hai kuch huva hai, Riddhima ne tumse kuch nehi kaha Anjali...??? Tumne pucha usse woh jaldi kyun aagayi aur Armaan kyun nehi aaya uske saath...???' Rahul asked..
'Pucha toh ta maine, Ridzy ne kaha woh meri help karne aayi ti aur Armaan jo maine saamaan laane koh kaha woh lekar aayenge.. Lekin mujhe bhi tohda alag laga Ridzy ki behavior aaj...' Anjali said...
'Kiya baat ho sakte hai...' Sapna asked...
'Shayad kuch personal baat ho...' Rahul said...
'Lekin Ridzy toh hamesha Anjali ke saath share karti hai, right Anjie...' Muskaan said...
'Haan, lekin aaj pata nehi khoyi khoyi lag rahi ti... Maine socha baad mein puchlungi but abhi toh pata nehi yeh dono kaha gaye...' Anjali said...
'Main dekhti hun...' Muskaan said...
'Nehi, tum rukho... Anjali, tum jaakar dekho kiya huva hai... I m sure kuch zarur huva hai, Armaan bhi bohot chup chaap ta aaj aur jitna maine usse pucha aur usne mujhe bataya, I m sure zarur kuch baat hai... Shayad woh tumhe bata de kiya problem hai..' Rahul said...
'Woh toh main bhi puch sakti hun na un dono se...' Muskaan said...
'Muskaan, Anjali Riddhima ki behen hai toh ek dost se zyada woh apne behen ke saath shayad comfortable ho sakte hai jo bhi baat hai woh share karne mein...' Rahul said...
'Rahul is right, tum dekho jaakar Anjali..' Sapna said supporting Rahul...
'Jo bhi ho, I m sure Armaan khud handle karlenge...' Muskaan said...
'We too hope so Muskaan, lekin woh baat pareshan karti hai toh it would be good if they could share it with someone they are comfortable with sharing those problems right..' Rahul said...
'Ok main jaati hun, tum logon ka breakfast hogaya toh kaam shuru kardo...' Anjali said...
As they all had finished breakfast, Muskaan and Sapna took the empty plates inside the kitchen while Rahul move to the hall with Anjali who left to check her room to see if Armaan and Riddhima were there... Rahul started to take out the decoration things letting Anjali talk to the love birds...
When Anjali didn't find Armaan and Riddhima in the room, she move around to check if they are in any corner of the house or not.. When she couldn't find them, she move towards the garden knowing it was the last place she hasn't check...
BACK IN THE GARDEN
After sharing a promising kiss, Armaan and Riddhima sit hugging each other... Riddhima was resting her head on crook of his neck while Armaan rest his head on her head as he slowly care Riddhima delicate figure... Riddhima hands were around Armaan waist as she snuggle close to him, Armaan smile seeing how much Riddhima wants to be close in his arms...
Armaan knows still Riddhima was upset about the matter, that was the reason that she don't want to leave him or else now she would have run away from him... Whenever Riddhima feel low, she would be hugging him like that and Armaan knows it's because she feel safe and protect in his arms...
While Riddhima was trying not to think about the pregnancy matter, it wasn't leaving her mind for a second... She knows it would disturb her for sometimes but soon she would be accepting that they had to keep trying until they get a positive result...
They move apart hearing footstep, Riddhima stood up before Anjali come out in search of them... Armaan hold her hand as they look towards Anjali, seeing their expression Anjali knew something was bothering them...
'Kiya huva...' Anjali asked straightly, letting them know she could feel the tension between them...
'Di woh hum...' Riddhima was cut by Anjali...
'Jhut bolne ki koshish bhi mat karna Ridzy, subah maine is baat koh jaane diya lekin ab nehi... Bacchi toh hoon nehi main, samajhti hun kuch toh pareshan kar rahi hai tumhe... Armaan, batao what's the matter...' Anjali asked knowing she wouldn't get a proper answer from Riddhima...
'Di, main batati hun na aapko...' Riddhima said...
'Are you sure u would tell me Ridzy...???' Anjali asked...
'Anjali, nothing serious happen... Bas tumhari behen ki mood tohda off hai issiliye main uski mood tik karne aaya ta...' Armaan said trying to save Riddhima from Anjali questions...
'Kyun mood off hai tumhari Ridzy, aisi kiya baat huva jo tum upset ho...' Anjali asked...
'Anjali, tumse toh koi bhi baat Riddhima chupa ti nehi hai... Main jaanti hun tum Riddhima koh sambhalenge aur samjha bhi denge...' Armaan said standing and pulling Riddhima close to him squeezing her in his arms...
Seeing Riddhima standing with her head lower, Anjali mind started to work trying to understand what the matter could be... Anjali thought of Riddhima life, how it had been going in last few months, than she remember what's the matter might be related to and she felt sad for her sister...
Armaan knows it wouldn't take Anjali to remember what the matter was related to, if they discuss anything about the matter to anyone than it was always Anjali because Riddhima feel comfortable sharing with her sister... Armaan kiss Riddhima temple and move away letting Anjali spend sometimes with her sister...
When Armaan left giving them space, Anjali move towards Riddhima taking her in to a sistery hug... Riddhima who was trying to hold the emotions in her heart, ones again break in her sister arms feeling the love and concern from her elder sister...
How much Riddhima try to be strong, she couldn't hold herself and was again crying like a baby hugging her sister... Anjali let her pour out the pain before she talk to her and give her support, motivation that everything happen for a reason...
When Riddhima stop crying, Anjali move out from the hug and making Riddhima sit on the swing with her... Taking Riddhima hand in her one hand, Anjali move her other hand up to her cheek wiping her tears making Riddhima look towards her...
'Kyun itna soch rahe ho Ridzy, tum aise himmat chod denge toh kaise chalega...' Anjali ask in a soft and loving voice...
'Di... main...' Riddhima couldn't speak as her throat was block due to crying...
'Ridzy, maine tumse pehle bhi kaha ta aur phirse keh rahi hun... Tumhe himmat rakhna hoga, baar baar aise royenge toh kaise chalega... Aisa toh nehi na, u can't have a baby... Bas tohda waqt lag raha hai but it's ok... Kitna waqt huva hai tum dono ke shaadi koh... Tum aise royenge toh Armaan koh kaise feel hoga Ridzy, woh tumhe aise tut te huve nehi sakte na... Woh bhi toh us din ke liye inthizaar kar raha hai...
Jo waqt abhi tum dono ke paas ek dusre ke liye hai, tum us waqt koh apne dil se jiyo... Jab sahi waqt aayega, I m sure god will put all the happiness in your lap which u deserve... Har baar is baat koh lekar dukhi mat ho, kyunki jitna tum khush rahoge, utna tumhare liye accha hoga...
Maine tumse kaha ta, no tension, no stress, always keep smiling and live the moment u r in present and let everything else to god to make a beautiful future for u and Armaan... I know yeh sab baate bolna easy hai aur I can't never feel the pain you are going through when u build a dream and it keeps crashing down but itna zarur kahungi Ridzy...
Jab yeh sapna sach hoga, tab koi bhi mushkil ho, tum woh sab paar kar usko pure dil se jiyenge... Aur na tum aur na Armaan, us sapne koh tut ne denge, haina... Issiliyeh, har baar is baat ko lekh dukhi hona chodo... You are my strongest sister na, who always stood up whenever u fall until u reach your destination and achieve whatever u want and make it yours... hmm...' Anjali said clearing Riddhima tears from her face and making sure she wouldn't break again over this matter...
'Thank you di...' Riddhima said holding Anjali hand which was on her cheek,..
'Behen koh thank you nehi bolte Ridzy, main jaanti hun tum pe kiya beet rahi hai... Lekin mushkilon ke baad jo khushi milti hai, woh in sab mushkilon ke saamne kuch bhi nehi hoga... Aur main jaanti hun, meri Ridzy koi bhi muskilon ka saamna himmat se kar sakte hai...' Anjali said...
'Aap nehi hote toh pata nehi main aise kab tak roti rehti...' Riddhima said...
'Armaan tumhe aise rone nehi denge Ridzy, woh tumse bohot pyar karta hai... Tumhare ek muskuraahat ke liye, woh kuch bhi karenge...' Anjali said...
'Lekin main usse apne tears se dukh hi de rahi hun...' Riddhima said...
'Tum yeh baat jaante ho na, phir kyun aansu baha rahe ho Ridzy... Just let everything to god and enjoy your life with Armaan...' Anjali said...
'I will Di, I will be fine soon... I promise...' Riddhima said...
'I know baby sister, I know...' Anjali said kissing her forehead and patting her cheek softly...
Riddhima gave a watery smile to her, Anjali once again clear Riddhima face as fresh tears were ready to fall from her eyes... Anjali stood up holding Riddhima hand and Riddhima just control herself, promising not to get upset about the matter...
'Ab jaldi se tum aur Armaan breakfast karlo, bohot kaam hai...' Anjali said...
'Aapne karli...' Riddhima asked as they move inside...
'Haan, baaki sabne bhi karli... Ab sirf tum aur Armaan bacha hai... Woh toh tumhare bina kuch nehi khayenge, jao aur dekho kaha hai...' Anjali said...
'Kaha jaenge, yehi hoga na...' Riddhima said...
'Ridzy...' Anjali call her as she stop making Riddhima stop with her...
'Kiya huva Di...' Riddhima asked...
'Woh dekho...' Anjali show Armaan who was standing with his back towards them, staring outside from the window...
Riddhima look towards the direction where Anjali was pointing and saw Armaan standing there... First she thought Anjali was just showing her his present but when Riddhima eyes move on his face, she felt someone snatch her heart from her body...
Riddhima never realized, as much as she feels bad Armaan would be feeling the same... She was too lost about her emotions, she never realized how much this matters to Armaan as well... It wasn't only her baby, her dreams, even Armaan was equally a part on this situation...
Anjali who was looking towards Armaan look back at Riddhima to see again fresh tears forming in her eyes... Anjali knew, this time it wasn't because of thinking about the situation but thinking how she had been too lost in her own emotions to realized Armaan was going in same boat she was travelling...
Anjali put her hand around Riddhima shoulder making her look towards her sister, behing helpless and broken seeing her loving husband having tears in his eyes and on his cheeks... How Riddhima had been building a new chapter of life, even Armaan was doing the same as he too desire to have a soul of them to be named as their pure love for each other...
While Anjali try not to let Riddhima break, Armaan was unaware that his condition was witness by his wife... After leaving Riddhima with Anjali, Armaan move inside and stood near the door for a moment before moving away to let the sisters talk about the topic...
Armaan was feeling low thinking again they couldn't make it happen but seeing how upset and broken his lovely wife is, he couldn't let her see his pain... Armaan knows how much Riddhima heart must be bleeding, even his heart was worst than that...
Armaan just couldn't show it to anyone, but after all he was a human too and have feelings, desire and emotions... So when he was alone, he couldn't help but let the tears fall from his eyes, letting the pain reduce in his heart knowing it would be best for him...
Armaan knows Anjali would handle Riddhima but what about him, with whom he could share his pain... Armaan don't want to speak about it to anyone else and if he could, than it would be only Riddhima who would feel horrible if he does that thinking she can't give him this small happiness which isn't true...
It was just taking sometimes and Armaan believe, one day they would be able to have a positive result... They just need to be strong and trying till they get success... So like every other time, Armaan thought to let the pain go with his tears and never let anyone see this...
Only he didn't realized, how long he stood lost thinking about his life with Riddhima and how their dream had keep breaking again and again in last few months... Armaan never thought, this little secret of him would come out but his trace was broke feeling a hand on his shoulder which bring him out from his thought...
Armaan look around to see Riddhima, before he could understand Riddhima was hugging him as tight as she could... Armaan quickly wipes his tears but his eyes caught Anjali who wasn't too far from them...
'Armaan, humse apna dard chupane ki zarurat nehi hai... Jitna Ridzy koh bura lag raha hai, main jaanti hun tumhe bhi utna bura laga is baat koh jaanke... Aur yeh chupane wali baat nehi hai, isse pata chalta hai tum bhi is din ke liye, us pal ke liye kitna wait kar raha hai...' Anjali said coming towards them...
'Main toh bas...' Armaan was cut by Riddhima...
'Cool dude banne ki koshish kr raha ta, haina...' Riddhima said coming out from the hug...
'Nehi woh, aankh mein kuch chala gaya ta...' Armaan said...
'Jitni buri tarah Ridzy jhut bolti haina, usse kahin zyada bura hai jab tum jhut bolte toh Armaan... Abhi maine Ridzy koh samjhaya, ab tumhe Ridzy ki behen, ek dost ke naate kuch kehna chahti hun Armaan... Har kissi ke liye yeh asaan nehi hoga issiliye jo bhi situation aate hai, usse himmat se saamna karo...
Aise apna dard chupane se dil mein jo dard hai, maayusi hai woh aur badenge... Isse accha hai, tum dono ek dusre ke saath, jo bhi tum mehsus karte hai woh share kre... Aur phirse himmat karke, ek aur koshish ke liye dono saath mein aage bade...
Jis phase pe tum log abhi ho, usse enjoy karo... Aane wale kal ke baare mein tab socho, jab woh aajae... Tum dono koh himmat karke koshish karna hai, na ki maayus hokar us baat ke liye dukh ho jo nehi huva... Jo hoge, uske baare mein socho... Always be positive, than only you would get a positive result...' Anjali said...
'Thanks Anjy...' Armaan said as he stood holding Riddhima in his arms...
'Thanks ki koi zarurat nehi hai Armaan, I know u both need support and I m happy I could give it... Tum dono saath mein, haste acche lagte ho... Aise dukhi, bilkul acche nehi lagte...' Anjali said...
'I know, mera imagine kharab hogaya na is stupid aansu ke wajahse...' Armaan said...
'Nehi Armaan, balki mujhe khushi hai ki tum is baat koh lekar kitna serious ho... It shows how much u love Ridzy and the little one who would one day come in your life...' Anjali said...
'Ab zyada iski tareef mat karo di, janab koh hazam nehi hoga...' Riddhima said wiping his tears which fall on his cheek...
'Chalo, bohot hogaya ab emotional baatein... Dono jaldi se breakfast karo aur kaam pe lagjao...' Anjali said moving towards the room to check on Anjul...
When Anjali left, Armaan look at Riddhima who just stood in his arms... When she didn't make a move to get out from his hold, Armaan just kiss her forehead, lingering his lips on there... Riddhima close her eyes, feeling his love pouring on that single kiss...
'I m sorry...' Riddhima whisper...
Armaan move out looking at her face as she stood looking at his chest, playing his shirt button as if it was much more interest than his face... When Armaan continue looking at her, Riddhima move her eyes letting it meet with his gorgeous eyes...
'Main apne dukh mein itni kho gayi ti, mujhe mehsus nehi huva tum bhi kitna bura laga hoga yeh baat koh lekar... Maine kabhi tumhare dukh samajh ne ki koshish nehi ki, jitna main inthizaar kar rahi hun tum bhi toh inthizaar kar rahe ho us pal ke liye aur maine...' Riddhima stop not understanding what else to say...
'Issiliye I don't want you to know how it make me feel to know about it.. Tum kyun guilty feel kar rahe ho Riddhima, tum jaante ho na... Tumse zyada mujhe kuch bhi important nehi hai... Tumhari khushi, tumhari hasi...' Armaan said...
'I know Armaan but phir bhi, tumhare emotions...' Riddhima was cut by Armaan...
'Kuch nehi huva mujhe, haan tohda bura laga...' Armaan was cut by Riddhima...
'Tohda...???' Riddhima asked giving him a chance to accept that he felt really bad...
'Ok fine, jitna tumhe bura laga utna bura mujhe bhi laga... Lekin hum kiya kr sakte hai Riddhima, we should keep trying... Aur jo second honeymoon ke baare mein maine kaha, I really mean it ok... I want to spend sometimes with you, away from work and all the unnecessary tension and stress...' Armaan said...
'Phir bhi Armaan, tum mujhse toh apne dard share kar sakta ta na...' Riddhima said...
'Ab sochne se kiya hoga Riddhima, let's just move on... Please...' Armaan said cupping her face hoping she would let the matter go...
'Ok fine, but never hide your pain from me... Not ever...' Riddhima said warning him...
'Are you sure, u want to see me cry.. I look horrible Riddhima, trust me...' Armaan said...
'No, u don't... It just gave me this feeling that, how lucky I m to have someone like you in my life...' Riddhima said...
'A crying grown up...??? Seriously...???' Armaan asked...
'Armaan, what if you are grown up... U r a human who have feelings and emotions... It makes a man not lesser than a great human been if he break down or cry...' Riddhima said...
'Fine... Now can we have something, I m starving...' Armaan said making a cute expression...
Riddhima smile and peck his lips before moving towards the dinning area holding his hands... Armaan smile as he move with him but still somewhere corner in his heart, he was feeling bad to know they had to wait for some more time to let the happiness knock on their life...
