Loved how Neil stood for Avni

There they sat, Avni and Neel, underneath the stars. Dealing with the aftermath of Ali's love confession to Avni. Ali had accepted the rejection, he understood where Avni stood in life but Ali had still asked Avni to stay away for a couple of days. Just so he could sort out his residual feelings.
Neel didn't know how to feel about the whole ordeal. On one hand, Ali had confessed his feelings to his childhood sweetheart that Ali had told him about for the past few years. On the otherhand, Ali's childhood crush was his wife. Fake wife, Neel corrected himself. They weren't bound to each other but at the same time...they were. He didn't know how to explain it.
What bothered him more than his own confusion was Avni's tears. So he had taken her out to his quiet place, despite having never bought anyone there ever before. He had found it when Juhi had left him. It was this secret garden, behind one small caf that had a small pond, small twilight lights on the hedges as well as a twilight-lighted trees. All around the garden adorned flowers; casablanca lilies and moon flowers. Flowers that only boomed at night time. On the right hand of garden, you had the full view of the moon, whilst the rest of the sides were covered by foliage. There was a single picnic blanket right in the middle of the garden, filled with cushions.
It had been a good half an hour since he had bought Avni here. She had sat down on the grass and just gazed up at the moon and the stars, and Neel wordlessly kept her company.
"Main kabhi pyar naahi kar sakti,Neel, Avni whispered to Neel.
Neel slightly jumped at the broken silent reverie.
"Umm...tum kya bol rahi hon Avni?
"Main kabhi pyar nahi kar sakti. Mujhe nahi hon sakte. Main hone nahi doongi. Not even someone as sweet as Ali. Main usse dhoka nahi de sakti, Avni murmured. To him or to herself, he wasn't really sure. He kept silent, humming in acknowledgement to her confession.
Her confession pulled a string in his heart, he didn't know why. He thought back to Juhi, and relived some of her memories in his mind. Somehow those memories shifted into the memories he had shared with Avni since the day they met.
"Ek din toh tumhe pyaar hoga, Avni. Sabko hota hain. Ab nahi karti, kyoi baat nahi. Usse nahi karti, kyoi baat nahi. Lekin ek din toh woh joh upar baithe he, woh hi tumhe pyar karne sikhaye ga. Love's a beautiful thing, mujhe poocho, Neel replied, in a hushed tone, afraid if his voice was any louder, it would break the heart-to-heart moment they were having.
"Kyoi milege toh bhi main uske paas nahi jaaongi. Neel, tumhe pata nahi hain, Avni countered, not breaking her gaze from the moon. Before Neel could reply,she began again solemnly "Iss pyar ne toh meri dono maa ki zindagi barbaadh kardi, Neel. Dayawanti Mehta ne sirf meri mumma ki jaan nahi lehi, uske pyar bhi cheen liya. Aur Neela mumma ka bhi. Meri dono mumma ko Mr Ashish Mehta se pyar hoye. Lekin Mr Ashish Mehta kisko nahi pyaar karte the. Or he did, but he was too afraid to stand up for his love. Mujhe nahi pata. Light tears had begun to fill up at the brink of her eyes. She recounted the full story to Neel, from the start.
Neel scooted closer to Avni, slowly, tenderly. Recognizing Neel's body warmth, Avni rested her head down to Neel's shoulder, still looking at the moon. Neel didn't know what to do. Should he respond, should he stay quiet? Should he put his arm around her or would that cross her boundaries too much? He looked down Avni through his eyelashes, and looked at the delicately vulnerable Avni on his shoulder. He wanted to reach down and wipe the tears that were building up in her eyes, but he didn't know if he should.
"Neel maine meri maa ka dil toot te dekha hain. Maine uske saapnon ko, aur uske bhaarosan ko toot te dekha hain. Pyar dard he, pyar bas ek dhoka he, Avni whispered in a harsher tone, finally letting some of the tears cascade down her cheeks.
"Avni, tumhari maa ke saath jo huya, bohot galat tha. Main maan tha hoon. Lekin har kyoi insaan boozdil nahi hota. Tumhe koi mil sakte hain, joh apni jaan bhi tumhar liye kurbaan kar dega,Neel replied.
Avni snorted in response. She didn't need to voice her thoughts. Neel knew she didn't believe him. He finally picked up some courage and held Avni's arms to make him face her. He wiped her tears gently, as if he was touching a porcelain doll.
"Maine pyar kiye hain, Avni. Dil bhi toota hain mera. Juhi se nahi lekin bhaagwan se. Maine pyaar se vishwas nahi khoya. Maine Juhi ko kyoi dhoka nahi diya. Mere dad ne meri maa ko kabhi dhoka nahi diya. Aur mijhe pura vishwas hain, Ali bhi kisi ko dhoka nahi dega. I'm not saying you should fall in love with him. Wait. Wait for the right guy. Lekin tujhe nahin laagta ki tumhari Ayesha mumma ye chahhiye gi. Ki tumhe kabhi pyaar na mile. Nahi na. Tumhari Neela maa bi chaahati hain ki tumhe ek din pyar miley. Aurr main... Neel drowned out until he was silent, looking into Avni's eyes. He didn't know for how long, maybe it was seconds or maybe minutes, but he and Avni fell into each other's daze.
*Buzz* *Buzz* *Buzz*
All of the sudden, the fogginess left, and Neel and Avni were brought back to the real world. Neel silently cursed his phone, especially seeing DD's contact id.
