ReWritten Destiny

I stared at the building in front of me, it looked so familiar yet so unknown. I spent the happiest day of my life here yet this place gave me all my tears. The sense of urgency, of hope, dreams, and fear still surrounds this place. I blinked away the tears along with the memories I no longer wanted to remember but couldn't seem to forget. I took my first step inside the building in five years and got hit with a sense of dj vu. The seven interns standing in front of the nurse station, whispering among themselves, turned into my friends and I, and the resident became Dr. Kirti. My heart squeezed at the sight of that, and it pained in longing for something similar. I missed the days filled with laughter and mischief, but the truth was time has changed. Those interns aren't us and the resident doctor wasn't Dr. Kirti. I took a tiny step towards the interns, almost as if I was reaching for a memory - I very distant memory. I was brought out of my daydreams as I bumped into someone. Looking up, my surprise knew no bounds. It was the person I desired to see every day but hoped to never run into. Those eyes so familiar, so inviting and those dimples, so perfect. I couldn't believe my luck or rather the lack of it. My mind was telling me to run away, to go away as far away from him as possible, but my heart. My heart was telling me to jump in his arm and never let go. I said his name out loud in five years, so familiar yet so foreign, "Armaan" I whispered at the same time he said "Riddhima"

Five years ago, Shashank found out about Armaan and Riddhima. In a fit of anger, he forced Riddhima to break all ties with Armaan and moved her to the U.S. Five years later, Shashank dies of Cancer and Abhi takes over. As per request of her sister and friends, Riddhima comes back to the place she vowed to never step in, and sees the person she always wanted to see but never could. Riddhima's past is catching up to her fast and she is broken between a promise made in the past and a promise the future holds.
