Sorry for rushing the story.Due to time limit I can't write this theme in a detailed way..Please forgive me.

The post man arrived a house.
"Madam...money order.."
The lady came and received the money order.
She read the note:By your well wisher.
She thought:Since last 2 years I have been receiving money order from this person.I know who you are though you have not revealed your name.


Aarav lit his cigarette and smoked in Aryan's room.He felt suffocated and started to cough.
Aarav smirked seeing his condition..



Flash back...

The water was boiling.The steam was coming.Aryan held Khushi closer to the steam continuously without letting her breath properly.
Khushi pleaded:Please Aryanji..this steam is giving me a suffocated feeling.I am not able to breath properly.
Aryan smirked:Let it be.By having an affair with my brother you made my life itself suffocating.You experience it.

Khushi could'nt bear it anymore and she fainted.Without caring about her Aryan left the kitchen.
Little Aarav got shocked and seeing Khushi unconscious.He cried calling her:Maa...get up Maa..Maa..open your eyes.I can't live without you.
Suddenly Aarav thought:I have seen in movies people pouring water on unconscious person's face.I will do that.
Aarav poured water on Khushi's face from his water bottle.khushi opened her eyes.
Aarav was relieved and happy.
Aarav:Maa!
Aarav hugged Khushi.
Aarav:I got scared Maa.When you were unconscious I got scared whether I lost you.How will I live without you Maa?Please don't leave me Maa.
Khushi kissed him emotionally.
Khushi:Don't be scared Aarav.Nothing will happen to your Maa when your love is with me as strength.I am living only for you Aarav.

Aarav:I am also living only for you Maa.
They hugged each other emotionally.

Present...

Aarav threw his cigarette and accidentally it fell on Aryan's foot.The hot cigarette burnt his skin and Aryan moaned.Aarav saw it.
Aarav:Oh no..
Aarav ran towards Aryan to take off the cigarette from his body.Suddenly he remembered how Aryan caused burns on Khushi's body with lit match stick.In anger Aarav backed off.
Aarav:You don't deserve any mercy Aryan Singh Raizada.You suffer.

Aryan's eyes were full of tears.He wanted to cry out,but Aarav was so heartless to him that he was not even allowed to cry out his emotions and get relief.Aryan tried hard to suppress his pain.

Aryan:I know I am the worst person in this world.I gave a lot of pain to innocent people like my wife Khushi,my brother Arnav...and my only son.
Aarav:Wrong.I was not the only son.My mother was pregnant with your baby..and my sibling.Maa and I had even decided her name.But you brutally hit her..kicked her and thus she suffered a painful miscarriage.
Aryan's heart was paining more and more.
Aryan:God has punished me for that.That's why I am in this condition.
Aarav:No way.Whatever punishment you got was very less compared to the crimes you did.
Aryan:You may be right.But my days are less.I know that.You don't want me to apologize to you.But I want to apologize to Khushi before I die.Please bring Khushi here beta.
Aarav:I know where Maa is.But I won't bring here.She is so selfless that if you ask for pardon with your crocodile tears she will forgive you and you will get peace of mind.I won't let that happen.Because that will give you a peaceful death.I want you to die a painful death without any peace.You deserve it for killing my Arnav Chachu without any mercy.
Aryan looked at him painfully.

Days passed...

Aarav saw Aryan in deep sleep.

He shook his body.
Aarav:Wake up.Enough of sleeping.
Aryan was motionless. Aarav moved his finger towards Aryan's nose and realized that he was not breathing.
Aarav's eyes got filled up with tears.
Aarav:Why am I crying for this man?He is not my father just because he gave birth to me.Just because I am used to seeing him daily I should not be sad to lose him.No...
Aarav started breaking things screaming.
Ruhi came inside.She was shocked.
Ruhi:Aarav...what happened?
Aarav giggled insanely:Finally he left this world and this impure house has become clean and pure.
Ruhi was shocked to know that Aryan is no more.
Ruhi:Aarav...are you not atleast a bit sad?
Aarav:Why should I be Ruhi?I am not sad.
Ruhi embraced him emotionally.Unknowingly Aarav's eyes got wet.
Ruhi said in her mind:I know Aarav..unknowingly you feel sad inside your heart.
Ruhi could feel her dress getting wet with Aarav's tiny tears.


Thanks to Sydell for this picture.



Aarav:I am happy that finally like I decided I will meet my mother.
Ruhi smiled emotionally.

A woman got up from the bed panting.
She:Hey Devi maiyya...why I feel strange?Did anything bad happen?

She is none other than Khushi.
She opened her cupboard and took out her family photo-Aryan,Khushi and Aryan.
Khushi:Only in the photograph we were happy together Aryanji.I loved you a lot.Then why did you become so cruel to me?Why did you even snatch Aarav from me?I am all alone.I did'nt commit suicide though I lost interest in life and have no reason to live.Because I am scared to commit suicide.I am still haunted by how you tortured me like murder attempts.
Her tears fell down.

Khushi was cleaning her veranda.Aarav reached there.He felt emotional seeing Khushi after many years.He was reminded of his childhood moments with Khushi.


Aa aa aa aa aa... Kabhee khushee gham
Naa juda honge ham, kabhee khushee kabhee gham
Aa aa aa aa aa..


Khushi saw him.
Khushi:Who are you?What's the matter?

Aarav was silent.He was so emotional that he could not speak.

Meree saanso me too hai samaya, meraa jivan toh hai teraa saya... (2)


Khushi:You came here for stitching clothes?Did you bring cloth piece for stitching?
Aarav nodded in no silently.
Khushi:Then why?
Suddenly Khushi noticed his tearful eyes.She became speechless for a moment.Unknowingly her eyes also became wet.

Teree puja karu mai toh har dam
Yeh hai tere karam, kabhee khushee kabhee gham


Aarav's lips were shivering.
Khushi asked slowly:Aarav?
Aarav nodded tearfully.

Naa juda honge ham, kabhee khushee kabhee gham... (2)

Khushi smiled tearfully and hugged him.He hugged her back.

Subaho shyam charno me diye ham jalaye
Dekhe jahan bhee dekhe, tujhko hee paye... (2)
Inn labon pe teraa bas teraa nam ho... (2)
Pyar dil se kabhee bhee naa ho kam
Yeh hai tere karam, kabhee khushee kabhee gham
Naa juda honge ham, kabhee khushee kabhee gham(KKKG).
