First of all so sorry for the late update! I know most of you might have forgotten the story plot till now so you can go back and refresh the story.
Sorry this update is a bit short. I will try to get a longer one done over the weekend where the workload is a little less hectic.
Thanks for all the wonderful comments for the previous update! Enjoy reading!
Recap:
Vrinda wraps her hands around Yug's waist in the hospital and says: "Please never leave me Yug!"
[Recap ends]
Yug is shocked! What is happening! He looks down upon Vrinda, who with her eyes closed has tightly wrapped herself around him. He knows this is wrong- he knows they both belong to someone else but somehow Yug does not have the heart to separate himself from Vrinda at a time where she needs everyone's support. Even though Vrinda's eyes are closed, Yug can still sense her increased pulse and her shivering body against his as a sign she is scared. Trying to shut down his emotions, Yug sits back on the bed, and gathers Vrinda in a light embrace to comfort her.
Yug: Don't worry Vrinda. No one will leave you anywhere. Please try to relax.
This was paradoxical! Yug was betraying his own words! How could he tell Vrinda to relax when at a time like this, he himself was having a hard time to keep his breathing at normal. How different, how shocking it felt to have Vrinda in his arms- especially at the turn of all the circumstances since Vrinda's marriage years ago when Yug had to let go of his love. He had never in his wildest dreams imagined to be one day holding Vrinda back in his arms. Oh what kind of a test was this! How he felt the impulse in his heart to hug Vrinda tightly and never let go of her till eternity- she had always been, still is and will always be the center of his heart no matter what turn the events do take. How Yug wished he could just hide Vrinda in his heart where she would be safe forever. How he wished he could lead a life with her!
Yug's embrace on Vrinda became tighter and tighter with each and every thought. Vrinda's tears began to soften and her heart rate got to normal from the warmth of Yug's chest against hers.
But no! Yug came out of his trance! How could he think of such things! He quickly pulled Vrinda away from him and gently placed her back on the bed. Meanwhile Vrinda had stopped crying and had fallen asleep peacefully. Yug got up from the bed and rubbed his head. WHat has happened! Everything! Flying to India and meeting Vrinda, the accident, Rajbeer;s death and now Vrinda! Then another thought crossed his mind- why had Vrinda remembered him when the doctor said she had forgotten all her memories. This was beyond science. Before Yug could think any longer, Radhika Chachi and Pooja appeared.
Chachi: Aree Yug you are still here? My my you look so tired! Go home and get some sleep son. Me and Pooja are here to take care of Vrinda now.
Although Yug wanted to tell the two ladies to not take trouble and go home, reassuring them he would be there to handle things over, Yug did not say anything as it would surely seem awkward. After all, HE was not Vrinda's husband.
Yug: if you insist bua. But my hotel is very near here so please do let me know if you need anything.
Chachi (smiling): Of course beta. What have I to fear when I have gotten you?
Yug silently left the room. How could he face his bua! How could he face ANYONE now when he knows he is the reason behind the accident! Yug had never felt so guilty. How can he keep this a secret. Maybe Teji was right- he caused nothing but sadness in Vrinda's life. Yug silently gets into the car and drives to his hotel where Bharti is waiting for him.
Scene: (Hotel)
Bharti: Sir I have been waiting for you. You haven't eaten anything today. Please have some dinner.
Yug: No thanks Bharti I am full. You better go to sleep as it is getting late.
With that Yug closed Bharti's room door and went to his separate room.
Scene (Next day at the hospital)
Even though he was dreading it, Yug had no choice but to visit Vrinda in the hospital again the next morning as VA had told the whole family to gather there. Today Vrinda was getting discharged. Secretly Yug wanted to catch a glimpse of Vrinda in a better condition as to give peace to his heart.
Yug entered the room and saw the families (of DB and VA) gathered around Vrinda who was sitting on her bed in an orange suit. How gorgeous she looked! Her eyes reflecting the same innocence which had captivated him those years ago! How beautiful she looked back in her suit with her hair open again. Vrinda's old unmarried appearance (as no one was allowed to tell Vrinda she was married) had made Yug remember the past- his love. Yug glanced somewhere else to keep his heart from melting by seeing Vrinda.
DB: (to doctor) Thank you so much for your help in making our Vrinda better and explaining her immediate family to her.
Doctor: My pleasure. Now at least after this morning, she knows about her basic parents, grandparents and some uncle and aunts. Slowly she will learn more.
With that the doctor took leave. Yug still couldn't figure it out. The doctors had clearly told Vrinda about her family this morning- then how come she remembered Yug last night?
As Yug turned his last glare to Vrinda, he saw the innocent girl flashing a shy smile towards him. Her eyes were filled with love.
Yug got scared. What was going on? Vrinda in love...with who...with...with...ME?
Precap:
Vrinda is at the temple praying, when suddenly she gets flashbacks of Yug capturing her from there (the 8th december scene where Yug mistakes Vrinda for Gitika).
