Rk went to his house, he felt alone in the big house he had no one to call his in this world. He loved Madhu but broke her heart too with his harsh words and anger. After many years life has gave a chance to him but he almost ruined it. He opened the wardrobe and took out a crystal star, it was the gift Madhu gave him on his birthday , he went in the balcony and stood there under the rain but it seemed as if time stood still yet physically, the clock continued to tick on. The deafening silence brought an onslaught of past memories that were once buried in a deep corner of his heart. He clutched the broken glass star, mended with several strips of clear tape. It was broken but it still came together perfectly, safely securing the memories hidden inside each of the shattered crystals. He held it up to the dark sky, rain pounding on in the background, and let it slip from his hands. He watched it slowly crash down to the wet ground and come apart. The strips of tape could no longer support the broken star but from within, he finally felt mended. All the sorrow and the pain washed away with the rain but he couldn't let his life shatter like the drops of water he needed to work on it. Rk thought for a while and he knew what to do, if life had given him a chance he couldn't let it slip easily, he was determined.

Two days later Sulthan was at Madhu's house "Madhu you have to come with me its new year eve party" "Sulthan go with your girlfriend why are you back of me" "Madhu she is coming but I also want you to come" "Okay I am coming" "Get dressed beautifully" "What?" "Or else everyone will say Sultan's ex-fiancee looks ugly" Madhu took a cushion and started beating him "Okay, I am sorry" Sulthan said. Madhu got dressed in a red dress and went to the party. Everyone was having fun but Madhu was feeling low it was Rk's birthday the next day. She wanted to meet him but she was hurt and she didn't know what to do. It was 5 minutes for 12 o'clock when Sulthan came to Madhu and said "Madhu , Maria is calling you up on the terrace she needs some help it seems" "Okay I am going. She cant do anything properly" saying this Madhu went to the terrace. The terrace was beautifully decorated with fairy lights and flowers but Maria was nowhere seen Madhu was turning to go back when someone held her hand and stopped her "Madhu wait" she was shocked to see Rk "Rk you here??" "Madhu I know I have been a idiot and said many things which i shouldn't have but you know me Madhu , my brain doesn't work when I am angry. I am sorry , Madhu I love you so much, life has given us a chance by making us meet and I dont want to lose it" saying this Rk got on his knees and took out a ring from his pocket and continued saying "Madhu will you be my world , will you be my better half , will you marry me ?" Madhu got shock of her life she knew what she had to say she believed that this was a chance given to them "Yes Rk I will marry you" Madhu said, Rk slipped the ring in her finger and got back on his feet , he pulled her closer "Wait" "What?" "Happy Birthday" Madhu said and kissed Rk, the kiss full of promises of never leaving each other, the fire works started in the sky wishing everyone a happy new year.
