Trishna arrives.Trishna is surprised to see Madhu.
TRISHNA:Hi Madhu.
MADHU:Hi Trishna.How are you?We are seeing each other after a long time.
TRISHNA:I'm fine.
MADHU:Mukund was telling me about you.
Trishna raises her eyebrows and looks at Mukund.
Madhu whispers to Mukund:Come on..tell her.
Mukund is nervous.
TRISHNA:Hey...why are you holding some roses.I love red roses.
Mukund:You love red roses?Really?
TRISHNA:Ya.
RISHAB:Then these are for you.
TRISHNA:Really?i just can't believe this.
He gives her the roses.
MADHU:Ok..i'm going.
Mukund:Remain here Madhu.
MADHU:No no.If i remain here nothing will progress.
TRISHNA:What?
MADHU:Bye Trishna.
TRISHNA:Bye.
Madhu goes to the flower area.
Trishna looks deeply into Mukund's face:Are you not talking to me?
Mukund:Ya..
TRISHNA:Then say something.
He says in a soft voice:You look beautiful.
She blushes.
TRISHNA:Anything else?
He loses his courage.
Mukund:No.
Her face becomes dull.
TRISHNA:But i have something to say.
RISHAB:What?
TRISHNA:I love you.
He is surprised.
He is excited:I love you too.
He carries her in his arms and swirls around in happiness.
Madhu reaches home.
She calls to Rishab's mobile.Rishab disconnects the call in irritation.
Madhu:Why I am not able to contact Rishu?
He told me that he will visit me now.Anyways I will get ready.He will be reaching now for sure.I will confess my feelings today.
Madhu wears a red saree with a smile.
Madhu:Where is Rishu?Why is he becoming late?
Rishab reaches home.In excitement Madhu takes the roses she bought for Rishab and goes to him.
MADHU:Rishu..where were you?
RISHAB:I just went for a walk.
MADHU:Then why did'nt you pick up my call?
He is silent.
Madhu:Ok...leave it.You know..today i met Mukund in the mall.
RISHAB:And he proposed to you.
She is shocked.
RISHAB:I was there.I saw him proposing to you.
MADHU:You went to the mall also? If you were there why did'nt you come to us?
Rishab:Because I did'nt want to come between you and Mukund.
Madhu:Stupid.That was his rehearsal.
RISHAB:Rehearsal?
MADHU:Yes.He was going to propose to Trishna.
RISHAB:Trishna?
MADHU:Ya..our old classmate Trishna.He just practiced how to propose to her.But you thought..how could you think that way Rishu?You are too stupid sometimes.
He feels ashamed of himself.
MADHU:I was planning to tell you something.But you spoiled my mood.
She turns back and walks to another room.He notices the red roses which she had held in her hand.
RISHAB:If that was not proposal,how come these red roses come in Madhu's hand?
Rishab knocks the door.She opens the door.
MADHU:What do you want?
RISHAB:If Mukund had'nt proposed to you,how come those red roses reach your hand?
She is irritated:Again doubts..you are sick.You can't change.Listen..i bought these red roses for you stupid.
He is surprised:For me?
She thinks:My God!Unknowingly i told it to him.
He asks softly:Was it for me?
She is quiet.He takes the roses:Lovely.This is the best gift i have ever received. Thanks a lot.
Slowly she smiles.
Suddenly she becomes serious thinking about his doubts about her relation with Mukund.
MADHU:You know me since childhood.If I had affection for Mukund first I would have told you.But you did'nt understand me.
Rishab is guilty:I am sorry Madhu.
Madhu's eyes are full of tears:Being my best friend instead of understanding me you doubted me.

RISHAB:What?
MADHU burst:Yes you fool.I have been loving you since i learnt the word 'love'.
He can't believe it.
Rishab:Madhu...you have been loving me since childhood?
Madhu becomes emotional:Yes.
Rishab:Then you did'nt give me a hint even once..
Madhu:When you told me about Piya I decided to hide my love behind my heart like the moon hides itself behind the clouds.
Madhu realizes what she told him.
Madhu thinks:Oh my God...what did I tell him?
She does'nt know how to escape from him.
Rishab walks to her staring at her.She is nervous.He holds her hand.
RISHAB:I love you.
She is surprised with happiness.
Madhu:Rishu...you...?
RISHAB:Yes..I also love you.But I did'nt have the courage to confess to you.
Madhu:You stupid...why were you scared to open your heart before me?
He smiles.
He takes the garland which was kept for the God's idol and puts it around her neck.
Madhu:Rishu...what did you do?It's for God.
Rishab:Your God will forgive me as I love you.
She kicks him:Naughty.
He pulls her closer.
She looks at him romantically.

He looks at her deeply:I have accepted you as my wife.You are my life Madhu.Now i'm waiting for you to accept me as your husband.
She blushes.She holds his hand:Since our childhood days i have seen you as my only man in this life.
Rishab smiles and takes an garland.
Rish:Then marry me Madhu.
She smiles and takes the garland from him.Then she puts it around his neck.
Rishab:We lived together as good friends.Now onwards we will be living together with love.

Their faces bloom.

Very soon Rishab-Madhu get married with everyone's blessing.
On the same Mandap Abhay-Piya's wedding is also conducted.
