Nimmi: I know..

Aditi: Am I missing something?

Nimmi(blinked away her tears): Very much..

Zain came inside with Karthi and propped next to Nimmi engulfing her in a protective sidehug. Her eyes gave way to tear streams dampening Zain's shirt.

Karthi: She has a broken love story.

Nimmi: I loved a person so dearly. He couldn't realise and didn't reciprocate too. He instead got into a relationship with one of my close friends. It was after all these incidents that he came to know about my feelings. I couldn't face the world. The hurt was so deep that I couldn't even cry openly. It was after so many days that I broke down in Sneha's arms. It took time for me to steady up and rise above with all my lost confidence. He is still my friend too. But somewhere in all these, I lost faith in love. I am too scared to fall in love. Its not that I can't read Karthi's mind...

She looked at a tearful Karthi with apologetic eyes.

Nimmi: I bother you a lot na. How long will you end up getting hurt by me? You should forget..

Karthi(kept his index finger on her lips): Don't say that please. I know your state of mind and have never forced you for anything. He can't just say that he didn't realise your feelings towards him. C'mon! If he didn't he would not have been so scared and uncomfortable to share the news of his new found relationship. You forgave that person and welcomed his friendship back to your life. Not everyone can do that Nimmi. I respect you for that. And I believe you deserve a better person than me. That is why I stayed away. Don't think that you are way too broken for anyone to love. You have the most beautiful heart Nimisha.

Nimmi(a teardrop trickled down to his finger on her lips): Karthi...

Karthi(caressed his thumb on her cheeks): I love you and nobody can deny that- not even you.

Nimmi sniffed back her tears and clung on to him finding her safest place on his chest and his warm embrace.

Aditi: You know Nimmi. I had even worser issues and insecurities. The man with whom I fell in love, badly betrayed me. He never loved me and ill treated me while I suppressed my anguish claiming it to be his love for me. It took me a lot of time to break free from that stressful life and take the path to Zain's life. I was too shaken up to mouth a 'yes' to Zain's proposal.

Zain: I was the happiest when she finally crossed all her mental conflicts and admitted being in love with me. You just have to trust Karthi for that. He deserves a chance.

Nimmi: What if...

Aditi: Life can't be lived on what ifs Nimmi. It is to be lived in the present. Try embracing the beautiful present you have got. I am sure you will feel contented.

Zain(smiled): You know, its a heavenly feeling when you see the result of your love. A confident smiling Aditi in front of you really gives me unending joy.

Nimmi wiped her tears and looked around her. She had all awesome people in her life. It would be a sin to ignore the positivities and hold on to the past wounds. She looked at Zain and nodded in understanding, wiping away her tears.
