"hi..." - she greeted him with teary eyes. she was broken to the hell after seeing his tomb. she felt the same pain when she got the news of his death but she controlled it and spoke further.

"sorry shiv... i should have come with you following your steps... but my responsibility stopped me... you know you have a daughter but unfortunately you don't know anything about her because i came to know i was pregnant after you left. i tried a lot to send this message but every time it failed... leave that... i am not worried about that" - she said and wiped her tears.

"i know just your body left me but your soul remained with me forever... it gave me hope to face every situation, every exam and now whatever i am now is full because of you... i love you shiv..." - she chuckled between her tears.

"i know you tried a lot to listen to this three magical words from me... but before i could say... leave that... you know who gave me the courage to tell this to you... your granddaughter Radhika... my cutie pie...and your grandson asked me to send this message to you... he took the promise that i should open this letter only after reaching tomb..." - she said and opened the letter sent by her grandson rithik.

"dear thatha(a.k.a) nana ji... i don't know how you can able to leave my beautiful paati and go to heaven... if i were you, i would have definitely bound myself in her pallu... i know we haven't met yet... but i have one request from you... please convince granny and make her stay with us forever... nowadays she becomes so impatient to accompany you... she thinks she fulfilled all her responsibility but tell her everything is not about responsibility, there are many things beyond that... we love her please convince her to stay with us, nanaji please... i beg you... i need my paati at any cost... she's the most beautiful woman in this world... and i will promise you daadaji... i will take care of her like my daughter... please convince her... till now i neither pray nor asked you anything... this is my only wish dadaji... please grant it for me... please"  - anika read the letter loudly leaving her in tears. but she smiled on seeing the tomb. 

"this letter is the proof shiv that my life without you wasn't a waste... but hereafter i really can't able to live shiv... i am tired... if you're there i would have asked another 50 years from the god to live... but i can't able to live without you shiv... i really can't" - anika said and broke down infront of the tomb.
