Fainat, Ranveer, and Vibha were still at the hospital, while Avneet went home to prepare for Akshu's welcome. As she reached home, she was amazed to see the house decorated beautifully. She walked toward Vaish, who was instructing the workers on the last-minute work.
Avi: Di, the house is looking very beautiful!
Vaish: Yes, you are right. It looks like a new bride!
Avi: And all credit goes to you!
Vaish: No, wait. I haven't done anything.
Avi: Then who has done all this??
Vaish: It's all done by your lovely husband and my cutest baby bro.
Avi: What??
Vaish explained to her that when she reached home, the house was already decorated. Curiously, she called Siddharth and....
Flashback: Phone Call with Siddharth
Vaish: Hello
Siddharth: Yes bhabhi?
Vaish: Baby bro, what is all this? Why is the house decorated?
Siddharth: You're home?
Vaish: Yes, Khushi was asking about everyone so I came. But when I reached the whole house was decorated!
Siddharth: Woh... bhabhi, Akshu is coming back after so many years. Mom wants to welcome her with a grand celebration.
Vaish: Okay... When are you all coming back from the hospital?
Siddharth: Everyone will be there soon... but I'm not coming with them.
Vaish: Why?
Siddharth: I have to go to Paris urgently.
Vaish: Paris?? Suddenly? What happened?
Siddharth: It's a long story. Ask Dada about it. But please take care of the welcome ceremony in my absence.
Vaish: This welcome is incomplete without you...
Siddharth: Don't be sad bhabhi, I will try to come as soon as possible.
Vaish: Hmmm...
Siddharth: By the way bhabhi, where is Khushi?
Vaish: In her room..
Siddharth: bhabhi, I wanted to talk to her in a video call.
Vaish: Okay.
Vaish entered Khushi's room and switched to a video call.
Khushi: Did Hero and Beautiful come??
Vaish: No... Actually...
Khushi: Then I don't want to talk!
Vaish put the phone in front of Khushi..
Siddharth: Princess...
Khushi: Hero!!
Siddharth: Hello Princess.
Khushi: Where are you?
Siddharth: I am sorry princess, I have to go to Paris for some work. But I promise, when I will return, we'll go together.
Khushi: But I want to come too!
Siddharth: If you would have come with me then who would welcome your Bua?
Khushi: Buaa?
Vaish: Yes, Akshu Bua.
Khushi (angry pout): Okay... but bring chocolates and toys for me!
Siddharth: Promise! And take care of everyone here.
Khushi: I will! Love you Hero!
Siddharth: Love you too Princess!
Avi: Thank God, Siddharth lightened a big tension from me. I was so worried about Khushi.
Just then, Khushi came and hugged Avi tightly.
Khushi: Mumma, where is my Buaa?
Avi: She's coming with your Dada-Dadi.
Khushi: Okay, then I'll check the arrangements!
Vaish: Look how happy she is... I hope this happiness lasts forever.
Avi's face fell slightly, knowing how much Siddharth had sacrificed for this happiness.
After half an hour, everyone arrived. Akshu was stunned by the beautiful welcome and got emotional.
Vaish did her Aarti and welcomed her inside.
As soon as Akshu entered, Khushi hugged her tightly.
Khushi: Hello Buaa, welcome to our house!
Akshu (smiling through tears): Thank you, cutie!
Khushi: Welcome! (pinching Akshu's nose playfully)
Vibha: Vaish, Avi—you two had decorated the house so beautifully!
Vaish: Mom, the credit goes to Siddharth.
Ranveer: Siddharth?
Avi: Yes, he instructed the workers.
Abhisek (to Akshu): Really Akshu, you are so lucky to have such a loving twin.
Akshu looked at him blankly without any expression.
Abhisek (whispering quickly): "Sorry."
Vibha (noticing them talking): "What are you two gossiping about?"
Abhisek (quickly covering up): "Nothing. Akshu was just saying that she is hungry."
Ranveer: "Then let's have dinner."
Vibha: "Okay, let's go."
After dinner, as per the doctor's advice, Ranveer took Vibha to their room for rest.
Abhisek and Vaish went to their room. Avi went to Khushi's room to put her to sleep. And Faisu was staying in the guest's room.
Jannat was in her own room, lost in thoughts, thinking about how much her life had changed in just one day.
After making Khushi sleep, Avi went to her room and called Siddharth. After three to four rings, Siddharth picked up.
Siddharth: "Hello."
Avi: "Reached safely?"
Siddharth: "Yup."
There were a few moments of silence between them, both holding back emotions.
Siddharth: "How is everyone there?"
Avi: "Everyone is good... except me."
Siddharth: "Why? What happened to you?"
Avi: "Missing you like hell."
Siddharth: "Same here."
Avi: "Then why didn't you take me with you?"
Siddharth: "If I had taken you with me, then who would have stayed with Khushi?"
Avi: "Hmm..."
Siddharth: "Avi... I am sorry."
Avi: "Why?"
Siddharth: "Because of me, you had to suffer."
Avi: "No, Siddharth. There's nothing like that. In fact, I should be the one saying sorry. I should have been with you at this time, but see, I'm here... very far from you."
Siddharth: "Still... I am sorry."
Avi: "Siddharth..."
(Siddharth gently interrupted)
Siddharth: "Avi, if in between the call gets disconnected, it's because my phone is about to switch off."
Avi: "Is your phone battery low?"
Siddharth nodded.
Avi: "Okay... we'll talk in the morning. Bye. Love you."
Siddharth: "Bye. Love you too."
They disconnected the call.
After that, Avi kept the phone aside and drifted into sleep, her heart feeling both full and empty at the same time.
