Rohit was lost in admiring her. Rain starts. Broth run to nearby home which was small and only single room. An old couple was living there.
Lady: ur dresses r wet.
Sona: its little bit. We can manage. Just want to stand here till rain stops.
Man: of course. Y stand? U can sit here (shows sofa which kept outside of door) or inside.
Sona: rohit, lets sit here only.
Roh: ok.
Couple were busy inside doing their works.
Rohit and sona sitting silently. Sona broke the silence.
Sona: rohit, do u still love raima?
Roh: y r u asking like this?
Sona: just simply.
Roh: how can someone forget their first love? Do u love karan still?
Sona looks on.
Roh: don't think its tit for tat question. M also asking just simply.
Both smile at their questions.
Sona: mine case is different rohit. Karan used to love me more. I too same. After ronak's birth our love increased. Then as days passes I felt like he started to ignore me. Then slowly he started to ignore ronak too. Then I came to know someone else has taken my place. I can bear anything but if it comes to ronak, I cant sit quite. (looks at rohit) now m like this, u r seeing that.
Roh: u told everything except to answer of my question.
Sona: I don't know. But this is true that rite now m concentrating on ronak. I don't want to think abt karan. But ur case is different rohit. Ur mom worries for u. she wants to see u happy. For her sake u move on. Nothing changed. Just u loved wrong girl. Think like that and think that someone is there for u. only for u. start to live ur life. Enjoy ur life. Ur mom wud b happy.
Roh: if u r saying, then I'll try.
Roh in mind(y don't u do the same?)
They see that rain stopped. They thank to that couple and left. They meet rakesh and rupa. All 4 returns.
They returned sippy mansion.
............... .......................
Ronakshi were coming close slowly. Ronak was very happy with veena and rohit. They used to pamper him a lot.
Sona gets call.
Sona: hi mumma.. how r u?
Suman: it seems like my daughter forgot me.
Sona: nothing like that mummaa.
Suman: from how many days u dint call me. Give phone to ronak. I want to talk with him.
Sona: ronak, nani is calling u.
Ron from outside: m going with badi ma. I'll talk later.
Suman: badi ma?
Sona tells her how and wat he calls both veena and rohit.
Suman notices happiness and exciting in her voice. They talk sometime and cut call.
Suman: thanku god. After long time m seeing sona happy. I want this for life time.
..................... ..............................
Veena observes that whenever sona's topic comes, rohit gets happy and excited. Same with sona too.
Veena: if they get married then both wil live happy. I'll talk with rohit abt this.
.......... ........................
Veena: rohit, I want to talk with u. r u free now?
Roh: is this any question to ask? M always free for my mom. Tell wat u want to talk?
Veena: wat u think abt sona?
Roh: sona? She's nice person.
Veena: I mean.... U.... and....
Roh: mom. Pls tell directly.
Veena: will u marry sona?
Roh was shocked as he never expected this from veena suddenly.
Veena: wat happened? Sona is nice girl. and ronak also likes u and u too like ronak.
Roh: mom wat r u saying? Me and sona?
Veena: just think once rohit. Listen to ur heart. It'll say that u love sona. But u r scared to tell. Move on rohit. I also want her as my DIL.
Rohit was silent.
Veena: take time and tell me. Ok?
She leaves. Rohit sits and thinks abt veena's words. He reminds all moments spent with sona and ronak. A smile appears on his lips. His heart says to accept wat veena was saying. After sometime he goes to veena.
Roh: mom. U r rite. I love her.
Veena gets happy: I knew it that u'll agree. Thanku so much rohit. U gave me all happiness.
Roh: no mom. I said that I love her. I don't know wat she thinks of me. Wat if she leaves us after listening this?
Veena: leav it on me. I'll handle it.
Just then ronak comes there running and jumps on rohit. Both fell on bed.
Ron: hey buddy.. u know I got first rank in running race.
Roh: ya.. I can see that.
Ronak stands: did I hurt u? sry buddy.
Roh: no dear. U never hurt me.
He hugs him.
Roh in mind: now my heart want to listen dad from ur mouth.
