Riansh FF: BROKEN

Chapter 13

Sometimes the questions are complicated

and the answers are simple.

Ridhima walked away from Vansh leaving him in a state of frustration while he followed her and they both reached Ragini's room. While seeing them together Ragini smiled at them and looked away. Seeing Ragini sad, Vansh was the first person to approach her and cajole her leaving Ridhima behind which was noticed by Dadi as well. Ragini smiled at Ridhima and asks her what does she feel about her first love. Though the question was out of nowhere, she wanted to answer it. So she says,

"Falling in love, at first sight, is easy. It's like getting hit by lightning. You can't fail to notice it. But figuring out feelings that you don't know you had... Well, that's a different story. You don't know if you got the right person or not and it's so confusing as hell. You hesitate and then you lose the timing. You're left in a state where you can't do anything."

Vansh, Ragini, Dadi, and Sejal who were behind Dadi heard every word she said. It's not something she said like that. Those words are from the bottom of her heart. One can say something has happened to her. While Vansh knows she is talking about Kabir and saying those words due to the break-up which Angre updated a few days ago. Another side, Dadi feels Ridhima is speaking about Vansh and her grandson is still with Ragini even after hearing her complaints from the heart.

She turns her back and sees Sejal standing behind her. Dadi passes a sweet smile and Sejal comments,

"It's time for Ridhima to step back, isn't it Dadi?"

Dadi looked confusedly at Sejal while she continues,

"I mean look at her, she answered what Ragini intended to listen to. Don't you think now she should step back from the room? As someone is already with Ragini to look after."

Dadi passed a weak smile and tries to leave the place but Sejal continues,

"I must say, Dadi, you have raised excellent grandkids. Like, look at them everyone cares for each other. They care even for the past betrayers too. I have never seen a family who has such a heart to forgive someone who has hurt them. Indeed, Vansh is a great man. I'm glad I met such a man who has the heart to forgive his past love and look even his wife is taking care of his past love. I mean even if she might or might not be feeling bad about it she is there and Vansh must be really such a good husband that even after it feels like he is ignoring Ridhima for Ragini; Riddhima is supporting him and he is absolutely ok with all of it. Had anyone else been in his place would have become conscious and wouldn't have wanted any trouble with his wife for an ex who betrayed him. He would have been more concerned about his wife and wouldn't have been able to be so caring towards his ex being such a loving husband just the way Vansh is."

By the time Dadi turns back and looks at Sejal, she stood beside Ridhima and took her away from the room leaving Vansh and Ragini alone. Dadi can see the pain in Ridhima's eyes and decides to handle the situation in her hands before it's too late.

*******************

Ridhima reaches the room and breaks down in Sejal's arms. Sejal try to cocoon her with her words but, nothing was working out. Ridhima looks into her eyes and says,

"I and Vansh are like puzzle pieces that don't come together. If we force it, we'll only get hurt. If I shrink myself so that I can win the person I love, I'll be stabbing myself. It hurts if we get closer but, if we grow apart, it feels like I'll die."

Sejal has tears in her eyes yet, she stays strong before Ridhima and says,

"It does not mean it's love just because you like someone. You should look at the other person as well. If they don't want you, you should step back. That is love."
