Flashback

After nandini came to check on aayush... she saw aayush sitting on the bed holding a frame and a sweet smile was their on his lips... nandini came inside and closing the door came towards aayush... as she was near him... nandini saw the frame... it was manan's pic.... looking at which nandini saw aayush and called him...

Nandini: ashu???
Aayush: mama mny na hamesha apky or dad ky jesi life chahi ha... the was dad loves you... and u love him... i know mein papa jesa pyar nhi kr sakta... na unky jitna... but i can try that... hayn na???

And he looked at aayush who's eyes filled up looking at his mother... nandini sat on the bed and hugged her son...

Nandini: mera bacha... im sorry... mein manik sy baat krun gi...
Aayush: nhi mom... ap dad sy koi baat nhi kro gi...

Aayush said as he pulled away from the hug... listening to him nandini asked...

Nandini: dont you love ridhima???

While nandini just looked at her son with proud and tears... aayush looked at nandini... and saw her crying.... so he hurriedly wiped his tears... and said...

Aayush: mom kia hua ab ro q rhi ho...
Nandini: mera ashu kitna bara ho gaya ha na...

Aayush gave a small smile... and then asked nandini to go to her room... she nodded and kissing his forehead nandini left to their room...

Flashback ends

While here aayush was looking out of the window thinking about yesterday...

Flashback

After nandini went away... aayush took a deep breath... and looked at the time... he then stood up and went out... coming down from the stairs he went to the kitchen... and taking out the ice cream he sat on the stool...

Aayush's pov
I dont know... after today when are we going to meet... but i just wish ky aj tum yahan a jao... for the one last time...

Aayush was lost in his thoughts when he felt someone's presence beside him... Aayush opened hus eyes to see ridhima scopping out the ice cream for them but only in one bowl... after she was done... ridhima brought a spoon full of ice cream near aayush's lips... and eyed him to eat... he did eat the ice cream... but some of the ice cream was left near his lips... so ridhima with her finger wiped that ice cream and sat their looking at aayush.... the only thing both did was to look at eachother.... after a long time ridhima moved her gaze from aayush to the slab... that was when aayush spoke....

Aayush: y u came here???
Ridhima: bcoz of the same reason u came....

This time she looked at aayush.... and then again turning her gaze looked away and said...

Ridhima: lets go its already very late...

And she stood up to go.... when ridhima was pulled back.... and this time she landed on his chest... while aayush wrapped his arms around her... and whispered in her ear....

Aayush: for the one last time....

Listening to this ridhima's eyes welled up and she to hugged him back with all her strength.... while wispering to aayush....
