As Siya and Abhimanyu lay in bed, the room was enveloped in a serene silence, broken only by the rhythmic hum of the ceiling fan. Siya turned to Abhimanyu, her eyes reflecting the dim light from the bedside lamp.
"Abhi," she began hesitantly, "Can I ask you something?"
Abhimanyu turned his head to face her, his expression soft and attentive. "Of course, darling. You can ask me anything."
Siya took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts. "Why did you forgive Alia so easily? She was the reason we were apart for six years."
Abhimanyu sighed, his eyes darkening with the weight of the past. He reached out, taking Siya's hand in his. "Siya, forgiving Alia wasn't easy. It took me a long time to come to terms with what she did. She made a terrible mistake, one that cost us both so much."
Siya's eyes searched his, seeking understanding. "Then why, Abhi? Why let it go?"
Abhimanyu squeezed her hand gently, his voice thoughtful. "Because holding onto that anger and resentment was consuming me. It was like carrying a heavy burden that never lightened. I realized that forgiveness was the only way I could truly move forward. Alia has to live with the consequences of her actions. Forgiving her was more for my peace of mind than anything else."
Siya nodded slowly, processing his words. "I understand. But it's hard for me to let go of the pain she caused."
Abhimanyu's eyes softened as he cupped her face in his hand. "I know, Siya. It's not something you have to do right away. It's a process. But we have each other now, and that's what matters. We've been given a second chance, and I don't want to waste it."
Siya's eyes glistened with unshed tears as she leaned into his touch. "You're right. I just... I don't want to lose you again."
"You won't," Abhimanyu assured her, his voice firm. "We've come too far to let anything come between us again. We're stronger now, together."
Siya smiled through her tears, feeling a sense of relief wash over her. "Thank you for being so understanding, Abhi."
Abhimanyu leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead. "Always, Siya. We'll face everything together."
With that, they settled back into the bed, their hands still entwined. The weight of their past slowly lifted, replaced by the promise of a future built on love and understanding.
Meanwhile, on the terrace, under the starlit sky, Tanya and Rajveer were deep in conversation, their voices hushed in the tranquil night.
Tanya leaned against the railing, her brow furrowed. "I still can't believe Abhimanyu forgave Alia so easily. After everything she did..."
