In the afternoon Arjun was inside the room working on his story. He was about to complete his next book and was pretty excited about it. It had been four hours now. He started to write soon after having breakfast and now it was 1.30 in the afternoon. Dev and Karan had gone out to the supermarket to get things and food as there was nothing in the house. Dia was with Disha inside their room talking to each other as they didn't want to disturb Arjun. Dia was sitting on the bed with a pillow on her lap and Disha was on her wheelchair facing Dia. The two had already become close in a short span of time. "When are you gonna marry Dev bhaiyya?" Disha was eager to know when her dream would be true. "I want to and so does he but that's not important for now. There are a lot of other things that should be taken care of". "If its about Kiara, she should get back with jiju and for that she should apologize to Kabir bhaiyya. Its actually not a big problem but as long as she won't do it, jiju will remain sad". Disha was concerned about Arjun. "I guess you and Arjun were siblings in the previous birth or lovers. The way you guys are concerned about each other is amazing". Dia was making fun of them. "Dia yaar, don't say that. We're all one family and I don't want anyone to be separated. More than anything jiju loves Kiara and he misses her so much. I can see it in his eyes even though he won't admit it". "You're right Disha. Arjun's always been strong. He took care of his mom, made his dream come true, married the one he fell in love with and he loves everyone equally. In a way he's my inspiration. When ever I feel low, I think about him and I know I can share anything and everything with him". Dia was becoming emotional.
"Dia I understand. Please stop crying. All of us have heroes in our lives. You have jiju, I have Dev bhaiyya, Kiara has Karan bhaiyya, Shanti aunty has Jiju too and Kunal has Kabir bhaiyya. Our heroes are the ones that take care of us and never make us feel alone. How blessed are we to have them with us in our own family right Dia?" "True....that's actually very true Disha. I never thought about it this way. But there's something I wanted to tell you, before meeting Kiara, Arjun had met you and Dev first right?" "Yes, at the coffee shop". "Hmm...I still remember that day when he met me and Kunal to talk about his two new friends. I had never seen him talk like that before". "What did he say Dia?" "He said about Dev first, I met this amazing guy. His name is Dev and he's so loving. You know he loves his sister so much that people think they're lovers. I met them finally. We became friends. He's really so loving. Just like a brother". "Did jiju really say all that? He's so sweet". Disha was smiling and she continued, "What did he say about me?" "About you..... why don't you ask him?" said Dia. "That's unfair yaar. Come on Dia, tell me na". Disha insisted but Dia didn't say a word. "Go ask your jiju, he will tell you, go", Dia smiled. "Fine I'll ask him then" Disha was desperate to know about it. "Pretty sure you won't Disha. Especially now because he's upset with you". "So what Dia, he shouted at me and its over. I will ask him. I'm not scared of him. You wanna come with me?" "Ha ha...I can keep a bet on this. You're afraid of him and its written all over your face. Anyway it's time for him to stop writing and your time to go ask him". "I'm not scared! In fact I'm going right away". Disha pretended not to be scared but deep inside both of them knew it was true and a fact.
Disha pushed her wheelchair near the bedroom door and knocked on it twice. "Come in" came Arjun's voice from inside. She opened the door and waited. "Disha, come in beta" said Arjun and Disha went inside and stopped near to him. He was sitting on the chair and turned it around facing her, keeping the pen down. "I hope I didn't disturb you". "No you didn't. I guess you've something to tell me, is it?" He knew it. "Um...jiju...I'm sorry for what happened earlier today". "That's okay, but tell me what you want to talk about now", he insisted. Disha didn't know how to ask him about what Dia had told her. "Waiting..." said Arjun, looking at Disha. She decided to ask anyway. "Jiju?" "Yea..." "Remember the first time we met?" "Of course I do. Sweet memories". Arjun was smiling remembering that day. "I was talking to Dia a few minutes ago and she said, that day after meeting us, you had met her and Kunal". "I did Disha. Come to the point instead of exaggerating will you?" "Yes, I just wanted to know what you had told them about me". "I told them I met a sweet girl with her brother. Her name's Disha. She was very loving and I'm pretty sure she fell for me that day. I liked her too the moment I saw her but I don't know if I'm right that she thinks about me in the same way. I will tell her someday".
After listening to what Arjun had said, Disha became emotional. "Disha..." "I told my bhaiyya, it would be better if we'd be friends. But it took a while for me to believe that we are just friends. I did think what would have happened if we were in love. But then I didn't tell my bhaiyya too and soon Kiara fell in love with you and so did you. Then and there my love feelings died and I accepted you as my own family. That's never gonna change. I know you're her husband and Kunal is in love with me but only if you had told me that you liked me...at least once...I would've said yes". Tears rolled down her cheeks. Arjun became emotional too. "Disha...I didn't know you..." "I know its hard to believe that you were my first love. Now you know..." "Disha...maybe this is how it was meant to be. God makes the final decision. We loved each other without confessing it but now we're a part of the same family. This is how God wanted it to be. I'm your sister's husband and your jiju. It will always be like that". "It will always be like that. I'm sorry...I should've told you about this before your wedding". "I should've done the same Disha but you love Kunal and Kiara is my wife. I love her more than anyone in this world after my mom and you love Kunal. Don't forget that". "Never...'' she said and they embraced each other for a few seconds. What they didn't know was Karan, Dev and Dia listened to all that they had said from outside their room.
