CHAPTER 6 The next day, there was an important meeting in the MOdi Industries, so the Modi brothers along with their father were busy. The meeting continued till late in the afternoon, they finally got the deal and were exhausted so they decided to call off for the day. Meanwhile, Vidhi had tried calling ahem, since the she had read his text on fb, but failed, so she left a message for saying Ahem, vidhi here tried calling you, but not getting you through. contact me asap. On reading this he immediately called her up and fixed a meet in the evening, in a cafe. Their journey from office to home, ahem was all pre-occupied with anticipation about meeting of vidhi and knowing about gopi's marital life, jigar had observed this, but thought of asking his brother about it later.
The afternoon went passed like years for and finally Vidhi and ahem met at the decided place. They initially caught up with each other's personal and professional life and finally Ahem said this sunday i accidentally met gopi at the kahanaji's temple, hearing about gopi vidhi smiled sadly looking at ahem. After, the silence ahem told her about the statement gopi had made to him regarding rohit and he requested her to tell him about her marital life. vidhi, sees the eagerness in him to know about gopi and starts saying the story goes back to those days, when you had been to london for your further studies after our graduation results...
Flashback...

Later, the two frinds carried on with their talking. do know where ahem has been these days?? since our farewell night am trying to get in touch with him, he seems to be nowhere. he's not answering any messages in fb and tried calling him up several times, but his phone isnt available. do you know where he is?? said gopi. Hearing about ahem, vidhi becomes a little sad, because she knows the reason why ahem wasn't beign in touch with gopi and barely manages to say i have no idea, gopi finds this abit strange, but before she could question any further vidhi hungs the phone off saying gopi, i have some work to do, will call you later and talk to you.. bye.. tc... bye comes the response from gopi.
Days pass by with arranging things for gopi's wedding. Gopi was all excited wabiut her marriage, she was enjoying every little moment of her marriage. finally, the day came gopi ot married to rohit. She had now become Mrs. Gopi Rohit Shah and was loving it and was also enjoying her marital bliss, her marital life was too vrey perfect, she had evrything a girl would want her in-laws to be, most importantly Gopi and rohit were madly in love with each other. After about a years marital courship with rohi, gopi was pregnant with their first baby and the Shahs had got a big deal as result of which their bussiness was flourishing.
Due to her pregnancy, gopi had the urge of having some ice-cream, so she and rohit had been out for a long drive and enjoyed themselves over an ice-cream treat. Their long drive made them reach the outskirts of the city, while returning back, their car had a breakdown. Gopi was a little scared as the area where their car had stopped was a very desrted place and she said holding rohit's hand rohit this area is so scary.. i mean i cant find anyone who can help us out of this mess rohit smiles at her dearly and says main hoon naa(am there) gopi smiles at his answer and says filmy, they both smilingly look in each others eye an rohit says look am checking out, the bonnet of the car, you stay inside and dont com out ok an he removes the seat belt and was about to open the car door, when suddenly a speeding trucks from behnd and dashes into their car and drags a for a few metres, until the car bangs itself to the singal pole, both rohit and gopi were injured but they were concious trying to make efforts to come out of their car, while their efforts were going on, another speeding truck and dashed into gopi and rohit's car, dragging them along with the truck, the car came to hault when it was dashed against a tree. Gopi, was out of the car by breaking the windshield in the pool of blood and the driver side door was open rohit half lying out of the car in the pool off blood.
Both were admitted to the hospital, both were in critical condition. Gopi, had lost her baby and had lost immense blood too, she was beign operated in the OT. Her operation was a success, but wasn't responding well to the medicines. On the other side, rohit had got multiple injuries and had internal bleeding, he also had injuries on his head which to an extent had damaged his brain too. While being operated, he breathed his last. Gopi too here was on the verge of dying, but gradually responded well to the medicines and was out of danger. The doctors had warned the shah's not to tell gopi anything that was shocking. so the shahs without informing goi about rohit's death carried out with his last rituals.
Days passed gopi was shifted to the general ward, but she kept enquring about rohit and his health, but the shah's gave her vague answers. It was on day when gopi heard rahul talking to his father dad how long are we going to hide from gopi bhabhi about bhai, she was his wife and has every right to know about rohit bhai's before he could finish saying anything gopi asked what happened to rohit, rahul bhai.. what were you telling papa?? rohit, is ok naa??? say somethign bhai.. please say something... she kept pleading both the son and father. After awhile they told her about rohit's death, she was in rude shock, for a few days she upset with her family for not informing about rohit's death to her, but gradually forgave them.
PRESENT...
Vidhi sighs and continues gopi, took alot of time to overcome the grief and in this process, she completly lost herself. She blames herself for being the culprit, she believs that if she wouldnt have insisted on having ice-cream and long drive that day, then today rohit would have been here with us, their child would have been a year old or so. She feels that, it was because of her that the Shahs lost their son and looks at ahem, by now his eyes were red with tears rolling down his cheek, he sat silent absorbing gopi's pain and grief. Vidhi broke the silence and said what are you going to do ahem?? he unconfidently said i dont know but pauses, with determination says i cant see gopi like this, to this vidhi asks him you still love her dont you?? to her question he just smiles fadely and vidhi gets her answer.
Vidhi was about to leave, when ahem says i want to meet her, but she raely meets anyone ahem vidhi said and your the rare you, whom she would meet, right vidhi?? ahem said,, to which she just nods a yes. Ahem, gopi daily goes to the kahanjis temple, the same on where you met her said vidhi, thanks was the immediate answer from ahem. but, what are you going to do?? she asked him i dont know, but i cannot see this gopi, i want the old gopi back he says with a little smile am with you saying this both part ways to their respective works.
