Confused everyone looked at Manhar who stood on the balcony. Aishani made her way towards him and looked at him watching the wind chime.

"What happened?" She asked in a low voice.

"This... How did you got this?" He asked with unknown fear in him.

"It's been there since she came back. You're just observing now" rudra said getting closer to her.

"Is it true?" Manhar asked listening to rudra's words.

"Yes" aishani replied.

"It's... Look at this yourself" manahr said took the wind chime and gave it to aishani. She took a close look at that and stared at Manhar with a confused face.

"What is this about?" Vachi questioned.

Taking a deep breath, manhar replied.. "it's... It's the wind chime. It's from her ex boyfriend".

She couldn't believe it.

"Stop joking about this Manhar. How is this possible?" Aishani raised her voice.

"Yeah, how can a dead person give this to her?" Hridev asked.

"Unless he isn't dead" shavi replied making everyone turn their heads to her side.

"What?" Aishani asked in disbelief.

"No, it's not what you think. It's actually from her ex. See. I remember. One of the star and moon have their names engraved in the tiniest way possible" manahar stated.

"Don't speak nonsense and all of you get out" aishani shouted.

"I'm not aishani" manhar shouted back and the next second a punch landed on his face as vachi and shavi shouted in fear.

"Don't you dare raise your voice against her" Rudransh warned.

"Coming from you? Who betrayed her?" Manhar retorted back.

"Stop it. Please. Why are you guys making a scene? Can't you consider her feelings?" Hridev shouted seperating rudra and manhar.

"I'm saying the truth. I met him. George. I met that guy when I went to trek. He was there like all the others and him and few boys along with me happened to talk. We kinda talked about life and all. He...he talked about you. He said his girlfriend name was.. "Isha" apparently" manhar started to speak.

"He... He even showed us the gift he was going to give you as he engraved those names right in front of us aishu. He said he was going to meet you in few more months, but until then he said that he's gonna send this to you to not to make you feel lonely. He said he always missed his girlfriend. He said he did a sin for hurting his girlfriend. For the first few days he looked so broken you know? He didn't used to eat and used to stare into empty space. But few guys dragged him and that's when he started to talk about his girlfriend. He cried. We watched as his cries turned into sobs. He even said how you liked watching the moon and stars at night. It's from him" Manhar said pointing out one of the star and moon from the wind chime where their names are engraved.

"Ishani∞︎︎Alan"

She read out loud as she wailed clutching onto that wind chime.

"Get out. Please" she requested between her wails hiccuping.

Understanding her decision, every one of them started to go out except rudra.

"You know right? That I'm not gonna leave you" rudra muttered as she cried in a foetus position on the floor. He laid down and turned her towards himself. He came face to face with her tear striken face and loud wails. Pulling her into his arms as his one hand surrounded her body which was shaking, his tears left his eyes along with hers. Her cries got muffled as she clutched onto him making his upper body wet.
