After a month :-

A month had passed since that fateful encounter between Armaan and Khwahish. Despite the scars of their past still lingering, Khwahish found solace in the love and support of Ridaanshi and Saina. Together, they embarked on a journey to Rajasthan to prepare for Adwait and Ridaanshi's engagement, a joyous occasion that brought a glimmer of happiness to their lives.

Amidst the whirlwind of preparations, Khwahish couldn't help but notice the positive change in herself. The weight of the past still lingered, but she found herself laughing more, embracing the newfound moments of joy that came her way. Ridaanshi and Saina witnessing Khwahish's transformation, felt a sense of relief and happiness knowing that their friend was slowly reclaiming her life.

Khwahish, Ridaanshi, and Saina found themselves immersed in the vibrant culture of Rajasthan. They spent their days selecting dresses, exploring the local markets, and learning about the customs and traditions of the region. Dharam Kaka, the Chauhan family servant, became their guide, teaching them the nuances of the Marwadi language and sharing stories of the family's heritage.

Yet, amidst the laughter and the bustling activity, Khwahish found herself grappling with a persistent feeling of longing. Armaan's absence weighed heavily on her heart. She missed his presence, his voice, and the unspoken connection that had begun to resurface between them. He was away in Sweden for a crucial business meeting, and while she yearned for his return, she couldn't bring herself to inquire about his arrival. The unspoken emotions between them were still raw, and she was unsure how to navigate their complex relationship.

when she came Chauhan Mansion  she felt very homely ..everyone is so understanding , she got to know riaansh was ridaanshi's twin ...rj riaansh who interviewed her once , he's flirty yet decent man ..he become very good friend of her in short time,

 Riaansh's easygoing nature and genuine interest in getting to know her created a sense of camaraderie that she hadn't anticipated. He was someone who could make her laugh, who could distract her from the tumultuous emotions that churned within her.

As they gathered together to select the dresses, the atmosphere was filled with excitement. Suddenly, Riaansh's voice cut through the chatter, announcing Armaan's arrival.

Riaansh: Finally, bhaisa has arrived!

Khwahish's eyes shot up, searching for a glimpse of Armaan. Her heart skipped a beat as she spotted him, dressed in a crisp white shirt with his coat casually hanging on his arm. He warmly embraced his brother, and then, with utmost respect, he touched the feet of Dharam Kaka, the Chauhan family's beloved servant.

Their eyes met for a fleeting moment, and a rush of emotions passed between them. Khwahish lowered her gaze, hiding the anticipation that swelled within her. She didn't want Armaan to know that she had been eagerly waiting for his return.

To distract herself, Khwahish pretended to search for something on the ground amidst the floral arrangements being crafted into beautiful garlands. She acted as though she was engrossed in the task, carefully avoiding any direct interaction with Armaan.

As Khwahish tried to hide her longing for Armaan, Ridaanshi couldn't help but notice the sparkle in her eyes and the glow on her face. It was evident that Khwahish's heart was filled with joy, despite her attempts to conceal it. Unable to resist the opportunity for some playful teasing, Ridaanshi nudged Khwahish's shoulder.

Ridaanshi: "Ghar aaya mera pardesi, pyas bujhi meri akhiyan ki hyeee."

Her teasing words made Khwahish blush, her cheeks turning a rosy shade. She playfully nudged Ridaanshi back, their laughter filling the air. Saina, who was observing the lighthearted exchange, couldn't help but join in.

saina: "Are kab se raah taki ja rahi thi..."

Their laughter echoed through the room, creating an atmosphere of joy , Khwahish, feeling a mix of happiness and shyness, stood up and made an excuse to leave.

Khwahish: "I think Aunty is calling me."

As they gathered around the dining table, Khwahish couldn't help but steal glances at Armaan. Her eyes were drawn to his genuine smile as he engaged with his family, savoring each bite of food. Her heart fluttered at the sight, the unspoken tension between them growing stronger.

Ridaanshi, mischievous as ever, decided to tease Armaan about the anticipation that awaited his return. 

Ridaanshi(chuckling): bhaisa bohot late kar diya kab se log raasta dekh rahey they.

Khwahish choked on her food, startled by Ridaanshi's words. She quickly took a sip of water to regain her composure, hoping no one noticed her sudden unease.

Riaansh: "Hain kon?"

Ridaanshi: "Family, yaar. There were many people eagerly waiting for his return."

Khwahish's heart raced as she awaited Armaan's response. Would he acknowledge the unspoken connection between them, or would he continue to maintain his distance? Jai, concerned for Khwahish, noticed her unease and voiced his concern.

Jai: "Khwahish, what happened? Is everything alright?"

Khwahish simply nodded, unable to put her emotions into words. She could feel Armaan's gaze upon her, his eyes silently searching for a response. Despite the unspoken tension, she chose not to object or express her feelings at that moment. It was a delicate dance of emotions, and she wasn't sure how to navigate it just yet.

As the dinner continued, Khwahish found solace in the familiar rhythm of the conversations around her. She ate her food, occasionally stealing glances at Armaan, cherishing those stolen moments of connection. Their unspoken bond lingered in the air, waiting for the right time to be acknowledged.
