Sm-rey kriya'sdad is still alive..

But he definitely will come finding for me and kriya... When he shall come to know that I m no more.. He may harm kriya to take her money.. So I want you to promise me that u will always protect her. And dnt tell kriya abt it.. Coz she respects her father allot and I dnt want her to know all this.
Rey-dnt worry maa... I promise I your kriya will be safe enought with me. And I wanted to tell u that I love your daighter so in future will u allow me to marry her?
Sm-i always knew you loved her... And no one else can be better than u for her.. You are allowed but u need to keep her happy always.. She deserves it.. I could not do so but I hope u can.
Rey-i surely will..
(Kr enters and they wipe thier tears away)
Kr-all good?
Rey-yup.
Kr-hmm.
Nurse-can u please wait out the patient needs to rest..
Rey-oh sure.. We shall leave maa.. Bye tc.
Kr-bye mom...
(They left the room..And were out in the corridor, rey was still lost thinking about what smriti said....he broke his thought chain when he saw kriya sobbing.)
Rey-kriya y r u crying?
Kr-rey,what do u expect from a girl who's mom is going to leave all alone in few hours!
(Rey realised what a stupid question.he had asked.. He went besides Kriya on the seats took her into a side hug..where kriya's hands lay on his chest and his shirt went all wet. He simply stroke his hands through her hair, while consoling her...)
-----------------------------------------------------
The next day at mid afternoon the doctors declared that smriti was no more. Kriya was all broken but the pain was less as she was prepared for this to come.. N also becoz Rey was by her side always. On the other hand rey also wanted to cry his heart out but couldnt  bcoz right now Kriya needed him. Swaron were there to support them.
Within a week all the rituals were over. Rey suggested Kriya to stay with him but she denied, as she wanted to stay at her place where her mom's presence could be felt. Rey had no option but to agree... But made it a point to visit her everyday.
Kriya was taken aback for a while but thanks to rey and gang who brought her back to life. She was now tge old kriya with her mom's memories. Her aim was to fullfill her mom's wish.. N she admired that always.
Rey and kriya both knew they loved each other but were waiting for the right moment to come.
