Aarohi was walking near the river and remembering something.
"Aaru, I love you very much and can do anything for you," Akshara said excitedly.
"Akshara, walk carefully. If you fall in the river, what will I do?" said Aarohi worriedly.
"Aaru, nothing will happen to me until you are with me. I know you will always protect me from danger," said Akshara with a smile.
Aarohi was just looking at her with a smile.
Aarohi came out of her thoughts.
"Akshu, I promised you that I will protect you whenever you will be in danger. Your Aarohi will be around you, but I wasn't able to keep my promise," said Aarohi, crying on her knees.
As she was crying, she saw two hands wiping her tears. Aarohi was shocked to see the person.
"Akshu," she whispers.
"Aaru, you are my strong girl. Why are you crying? And you have fulfilled your promise. You have given me justice, and I know my Aaru would have known this," Akshara said with a smile. Aarohi was just looking at her but was hurt because she knew it wasn't Akshara; it was just her soul.
Akshu, I am missing you a lot. I am sorry, I thought you did wrong with me, that Amaira took your name, identity, and spoiled your name. Like seriously, I am missing you each and every second since I got to know that truth," Aarohi said, crying.
"Aaru, please don't cry. My heart aches seeing you like this. I am also getting broken. Just think for once, if Amaira didn't come into your life, you wouldn't have met Abhimanyu. The happiness you were longing for is now with you. And now, you should be happy that you have everything. About me, I am your soul. I will always be alive in you. Don't worry, and please don't cry," said Akshara with tears in her eyes.
"Then why are you crying?" asked Aarohi to Akshara.
"Aaru, you are making me happy at this moment," Akshara said while hitting Aarohi on her hand.
"I love you, Akshu," said Aarohi with a sad expression.
"I miss you more, and now stop crying, please, Aarohi, for me. Remember our happy moments. Life doesn't wait for anyone. Enjoy each and every moment," said Akshara, tears in her eyes.
"Do you remember, Akshu, how we used to come here and walk and talk about our whole day, how stressed we were, but would always come here," said Aarohi, remembering.
"Yes, I remember, Aaru. Papa and Mumma used to scold us and ask where we both were. And after we grew up, Kairav bhaiya used to scold us a lot. I am missing those precious days," said Akshara with a lone tear.
"Akshara, I would say one thing. I know the Goenkas only preferred you, but for you, I was your first choice. I loved today after getting the Goenkas' attention. I am feeling sad," said Aarohi with sadness.
"But why is it so, Aaru? Why are you feeling sad now when your whole family is with you? What's the problem now?" asked Akshara, concerned.
"Actually, I am feeling like after losing you, they have realized my worth. Just think, if the truth didn't come out, then they would have hated me only. So, I am feeling like they are just trying to feel guilt-ridden," said Aarohi, sharing her thoughts.
"I understood your point, Aaru, but just think, some lucky people only have a family. They all have been with you. Yes, I know they all loved me more, but think for once, Aaru, there were people who loved you sincerely also, and if someone has realized their mistake, they deserve forgiveness. I know, Aaru, it will be difficult for you, but for once, think about it," Akshara said, convincing her.
"Akshu, I am already missing you, and I am thinking about how I will survive without you. Without you, I am feeling alone, and it is like I am left alone," said Aarohi with tears.
"Aaru, you have Abhimanyu, Kairav, bhaiya, and so many people with you, and the family you always wanted, you have in your in-laws. Please, Aaru, always be happy. If there are tears in your eyes, then I will also have tears in my eyes too. And you know, I want you to always be happy," said Akshara with a bright smile on her face.
They both talked with each other and shared their emotions. After a while, Aarohi was walking peacefully as if she had gotten everything she was holding Akshara's hand and talking to her alone.
"I am sorry, Aaru, but this time your elder sister won't be with you. I know I wasn't there for a long time. Please forgive me, but now I need to go, and I am extremely sorry for it," Akshara thought in her mind.
As Aarohi was moving further, she saw that the Akshara she was holding wasn't there; Akshara disappeared.
"Akshu, where are you? Why did you leave me? But I have promised you, that's why I can't even drop a single tear of sorrow from my eyes. Akshu, I really, really miss you, and you will be the most important part of my life," said Aarohi with a smile that had mixed emotions of sadness and happiness.
She went home and forgave everyone. For the first time, her sister had asked anything from her, and she did it as per her sister's request bit trust isn't that easy for her.
Next chapter will surely have some family scenes and happiness.
