The Unseen Part Of My Life

To Where She Belonged

I was nervous. Nervous about how Rihaan will react. I spent the 15 minutes wondering how he would react.

Finally Rihaan came in. He was stunned when he saw me. He said, "What are you doing here?", I said, "I came back because I missed you", "I missed you too" He said and we hugged.

I wore the dress he had asked me to, "You look beautiful, Ria" He said trying to control his blush. He was blushing. "Thank you for this" I said, "Thank you for being the best person in my life. I don't know what I would have done without you. I never knew how much you gave me. You work only for us and I should've understood" I continued. After a long pause he said, "I am sorry I should've given you all more time." 

He understood his mistakes. He took me out for lunch. We went to a restaurant and had lunch together. First time in my life I was excited to go out with him. I wanted to talk to him. I wanted to talk to him with all of my heart. We spoke for hours until we went back to my mom's to pick up the kids. 

He promised me that he would change and he would try to remove as much time as possible for his family as it is important. He said, "I was going to do this when you come back but you surprised me so here it is. I love you. I love you very much. I couldn't express it because you were never open enough. It felt like I was forcing you so I tried my best to maintain distance. I never forced you but I do love you. I have always wanted to tell you this but I couldn't because I thought you didn't. I am sorry for everything lets handle our family now", I was happy that he loved me and he told me this for the first time. I regretted being formal with him. "I love you too Rihaan. I always will." I said. I knew no matter what I can never be without him.

"6 Months Later"

Maldives was the best decision of my life. I don't know how and where things changed but it did. It was for good. There are some people we love and they leave us. There are some people who love us and we leave them. The cycle goes on and on. I was hurt and scared to fall for someone else but Rihaan was worth everything. He was worth my love and time unlike Shaan who always left me on my own. Shaan indeed taught me a lot but it was for good. I am glad I didn't contact him again. He didn't deserve it. After what he made me go through he didn't. In the end the person who sticks by your side no matter what matters. If it was for me I would have always stayed by his side and fought for him with everyone because I loved him that much but maybe he didn't.

My family is the happiest. Rihaan and kids have been bonding a lot. Rihaan realizes that we are important too. I know if I would have married Shaan he wouldn't have been this good or considerate. On the brighter side Rihaan and I are planning a trip soon with the kids for a month. Hopefully it will be worth the wait.

Life goes on. Sometimes moving on is an happy ending. Being stuck in life is never an option. The closure I wanted was with Shaan but I am glad I met him. I am glad because if I wouldn't have then I might have been still longing for him and that was destroying me and my family. 

Rihaan comes home early now and he tries to take us out on every weekend. I am working too. My kids are happier than ever before. Shaan was shooting for some movie in Maldives and it comes out next month. Shaan did try to contact me on social networking sites but I didn't respond. I think avoiding him is the best decision. I never told Rihaan that I met Shaan. I didn't feel the need to because nothing bad ever happened. I have started talking to Rihaan a lot more. We go out for dates alone. No matter what he tries to keep our alone time alive in spite of us having kids.

And that's how my story ends. I and Rihaan living happily ever after like in fairy tales. We started respecting each other more and love each other more.
