The journey amidst the storms and sunlight what makes it worth it the destination or the one you choose to travel with .

Manohar comes back home and finds Sanidhi,

Manohar - Sanidhi I'm home .

Sanidhi lost in her thoughts doesn't realize Manohar's presence .

Manohar - Hey Sanidhi ( shakes her shoulder)

Sanidhi - Huh , oh Manohar you're home, didn't see you .

Manohar - lost in your thoughts huh? Is that a dairy in your hand ?

Sanidhi - yeah had something in my mind , this ? Yeah i just scribble stuff ?

Manohar - oh can I see?

Sanidhi - Some other time may be ?

Manohar - okay meanwhile I got some breakfast , let's eat .

Sanidhi and Manohar while having breakfast .

Sanidhi - yeah I'm fine just a little under the weather I guess ?

Manohar - Oh should we consult a doctor?

Sanidhi -  Ahem I'm a nurse Manohar , I can treat myself for a common cold .

Manohar - yeah right my bad .

Sanidhi holds Manohar's hand , with a half smile .

Sanidhi - You've been through a lot haven't you?
