"If I Was There"

Epilogue!!!!

Since Ruhi had left, Neil and Aarohi used to feel happy, but a sense of something missing was always between them. As the days passed, Neil and Aarohi shared good news that everyone was excited to hear: Aarohi was going to be a mother soon, and a child was coming into their home.

The happiness on everyone's faces was something that could not be expressed in words. Neil and Aarohi were the happiest among all. One evening, Neil and Aarohi were in their room.

"Aarohi, I don't know, but I have a feeling that we will have a baby girl," said Neil with a smile.

"I also feel that way; she will be our Rooh," said Aarohi with the biggest smile possible.

"She will be our Rooh, our Ruhi," said Neil, looking at the moon while Aarohi smiled at hearing the name.

They both talked more in the moonlight and shared their views on how they would pamper their little baby and always be by their child's side.

Soon, two months had passed in Aarohi's pregnancy. It was almost two in the night when Aarohi started crying.

"What happened, Aaru? Why are you crying?" asked Neil, cupping her face.

"I want to have ice cream," said Aarohi with a small smile. Neil, who was used to her mood swings, wasn't surprised by her sudden crying followed by a smile; he also smiled along.

"What flavor?" Neil questioned her.

"Chocolate and butterscotch," said Aarohi, looking at him with a big smile.

Neil went and brought her the ice creams. They both enjoyed the ice cream while Neil was just adoring his cute wife, who was also becoming like a small child with the happiness of having one.

"Anything else, madam?" asked Neil, looking at her, while Aarohi shook her head in the negative, and both of them went to sleep.

Everyone was pampering Aarohi a lot, and she was loving it very much, as everyone's first priority was her, and she cherished that fact.

"Mumma loves you a lot, baby, and I will always be there for you," said Aarohi with a small smile, caressing her baby bump.

Meanwhile, in Udaipur, Abhimanyu's life was fully destroyed as Akshara left him, and all his family wasn't on his side. He stopped going to the hospital and soon had nothing left. The same was true for the Goenkas, as Kairav and Vansh used to handle the business. The Goenkas and Akshara were left on the streets, with nothing remaining for them. They had lived a life of privilege, which was now nowhere to be seen.

The only thing left with them was guilt and the realization of how they had always treated Aarohi. Their lives were going on in a way they had never expected.

Now, back to Neil and Aarohi: they were leading a peaceful life. Neil was irritated by Aarohi's mood swings, but he also loved them, as he enjoyed pampering her whenever possible.

As this continued, everyone pleased Aarohi; sometimes they made her drink juice and eat food. Seven months passed, and none of them ever realized this.

They all celebrated Aarohi's godh bharai with lots of fun and enjoyment. Their hearts felt a sense of happiness as soon the baby would be with them and would be a part of their family. As time went on, nobody ever realized when these two months passed. Aarohi had liver pain, and everyone took her to the hospital.

Soon, the doctor arrived, and a smile came on everyone's face as they saw the baby in the nurse's hands.

"It's a baby girl," said the nurse with a smile, while everyone looked at her with big smiles.

"Who will hold the baby first?" asked the nurse, looking at everyone, while Neil came forward.

"Doctor, when will Aarohi regain consciousness?" asked Neil with a smile.

"Sir, in about 30 minutes or so," said the nurse with a smile.

"She will be holding the baby first," said Neil with a smile, while everyone smiled upon hearing this.

As Aarohi regained consciousness, the nurse gave her the baby first. Aarohi was really happy with this sweet gesture from Neil and was just looking at her cute baby girl.

Thank you, God, for bringing this sweetheart into my life. I will always be blessed to have her, said Aarohi, looking at her little baby in her mind.

Soon, Neil also held the baby and was very happy; he too felt blessed to have his little princess in his hands. After that, everyone started holding her, and they all blessed Ruhi and were very happy to see her.

Soon, Aarohi was discharged from the hospital. Everyone welcomed Neil, Aarohi, and the baby girl by performing the aarti and had a great time with each other.

Soon, the day of the name ceremony came. Neil and Aarohi were the most excited ones, as they had already thought of the name for their little baby girl.

The Panditji came, and Aarohi and Neil happily sat with their baby girl. Everyone blessed them and performed many dance performances, enjoying a lot; they had a great time.

"So the letter is 'R'," said the Panditji with a smile, while Neil and Aarohi had huge smiles on their faces.

"So what name have you both decided?" asked Manjari, looking at them.

"Ruhi," said Neil and Aarohi together with big smiles, while everyone else also smiled upon hearing this name. Ruhi's name lingered in the whole house, and Neil and Aarohi's story had a happy ending with their daughter by their side.
