"Go.. And say a Hello..
She clearly saw you.."

"No.. Lets go.."

"You owe it to yourself..
I will wait in the coffee shop downstairs."
She said with a soft smile..
And softly kissing his cheek.

She walked away.. And he stood rooted there.. He had no idea what to say..

"You changed your perfume..."
A voice from behind said..
That familiar Voice.

"7 years..
I changed near about everything..
But you still use the same one!"
He stated with a small

"7 years 5 months.. 12 days.. & you still remember?"

"I do.." He said..

"I heard you left the dirty business...
Married your psychiatrist 4 yrs back.."
She said.. Her tone.. Mocking.. Him.

"Yesss..
She picked pieces of what you had broken.. Piece by piece & glued them back with love affection, trust, loyalty and scoldings"

"Do you miss Me?
Do you remember us..?
Our love obsession madness addiction?"

"Tumhe bhulne ki meine kabhi koshish hi nahi ki.."
She smiled..
He still thinks of me she thought...

"You were like a lesson to me..
And thats exactly why i know why we were not good.. I remember the pain.. Not just mine yours too.. The tears..the torture..
The devastation..
I remember our wounds..
So i know why WE were so wrong."

His words felt like bullets being fired at her.
He could forget her.. Move on.. She never thought.. She had Always hoped one day again whe will get him back.. Get Her Vansh Back..

She walked closer to him.. And placing her hand over his heart said
"Do you not love me anymore?
Itni jaldi bhul gaye mujhe.."

"Tum galat nahi thi nahi mein tha..
Bas we never tried to understand eachothers point of view..
So We were wrong for each other..
Mere aag ko tumhari aag ki nahi sukoon aur theirav ki zaroorat thi..
The fire we had causes forest fires..
Burns down houses.. Like it did for us."
He said calmly..
His heartbeat didnt fasten..
He didnt lose temper..
He seemed different.
Very calmly he shoved her hand away from him.. like she was a stranger.

"You didnt answer my question"
she said looking deep into his eyes...
She always could read his eyes.  Today she wanted to be wrong.. Because his eyes were matching his words.. The love she was searching for wasnt there.

"No I dont.. Not the way you are asking..
Usdin (The day they lost their baby & she had left him and walked away) tutke jo mein  bikhra tha kuch zakam abhi bhi hai.. So ya.. May be the truth is that in some corner of my heart you are still alive but i dont want to dug out that corner.. I dont want to take that road again.. you had left.. You had chosen to walk away... You are that chapter of my life that will forever remain incomplete.. That day you had chosen your peace and you decided the  road that could give you that was the one that took you away from me... i had also lost the most precious thing of my life.. My child My loss was just as much as yours.. And while u tried to find sukoon away from me.. I had believed that only you could heal me that together we could heal eachothers wounds. And i had begged you.. On my knees for you to stay. But you didnt.. Today i know what peace is.. What stability is.. & i have that.. What we had will remain precious but
What i have now is what i need.. Its Home.
Riddhima.. I wish you all the best in life.. I hope you found happiness."
Saying so he was walking away when she held his hand to stop him.

"Vansh wait.. "
There was a time when her uttering his name was like a melody to his ears.. Now it felt foreign.. He turned around and said..

"You know i have a daughter..
would u like to see my daughter he asked?
'Sana' she is 8 months old.. And he showed her picture.."  A precious smile adoring his Face.

"Her smile is like yours.."
She said sadly..
"No its more like Avni's" he replied.
She knew what she will say next will break him again.. But she had to now.. It was already too late.
"Vansh..I would like to show you someone's picture too..My Son.. Ridhwik.. He is 7."

"7.. Ridhwik.." 
He muttered..
His voice low..
Unclear..
His face looking white...

"Our Son!" she uttered.
She Couldnt look into his eyes..

"You had lied.. Then or Are you lying now? Why???"
Saying so.. he collapsed onto the floor in front of her.

Fate & Its Cruel Jokes..
It broke Him once again.
