SidNaaz FF- Teach Me How To Love (COMPLETED)

Part 26- Moving On..

One year later:

Sidharth :
He walked inside in a slow pace.. he hated being here.. it made his heart heavy with sorrow and pain to visit this place every time.. He carried some flowers with him..
Her favorite flowers..
Sidharth set down beside the grave as he felt the remorse hit him bad.. The pain of losing her was just too much to deal with.. Could he ever recover from this loss? He did not think so..
He felt a tear drop down as he stared at the grave in pain.. He had thought he had no tears left.. its been 6 months yet he could never control his emotions.. This hurt.. the loss of her hurt so bad..
With a sign he stood up.. He had carefully placed the flowers on the top and took a step back.. He gave one last glance with a look of yearning and walked back to his car...
He set inside and took a harsh breath.. "I miss you.. I miss you so much.." He muttered sadly..

20 minutes later he returned home and walked inside.. The house seemed very quiet.. It had gone all quiet with her death..
No longer laughter was heard.. it was no longer lively..
He closed the door and walked upto the sofa and saw Pia lying down asleep.. She had the TV on but she must have feel asleep while watching it.. He took the remote and switched off the TV.. He stared at his niece and dropped a light kiss on her forehead and covered her with a blanket..
He walked to his room, slowly making his way to the window.. He was lost in his thoughts while staring outside.. His expression gloomy and sad as he kept recalling her memories..
Just then he felt two hands crawl to his waist and hug him from behind..
He relaxed with a sigh.. He closed his eyes and held on her hand.. In this misery she was his only support.. He held her hand and pulling her infront of him..
"Did you go to visit her?" Shehnaaz questioned while hugging him.. She had rushed back to the room from the kitchen as she heard him return.. She knew he was distressed as today it turned 6 months since her death..
Priya Shukla was no longer among them..
It had been a big shock for them with her sudden demise.. Sidharth and Shehnaaz had got married a year ago and they had been together happy in their world..
They had a small wedding ceremony with family and friends.. It had been the best day in their lives..
Since Priya had shifted with them, Shehnaaz had been taking care of Priya as she had been little unwell.. But she never showed any major signs of being too sick.. Just after 6 months to their marriage, Priya had gotten very sick and was taken to hospital immediately.. Her status had been critical all night.. Shehnaaz remembered how scared they had been.. Pia was been consoled by Ishika as she had been crying nonstop while an anxious Sidharth kept pacing around nonstop..
She remembered how they had been praying for Priya's recovery all night..
Much to their dismay Priya had died few hours later.. leaving behind everyone heartbroken in shock..
Doctors said she had started having breath difficulty and it got worse and unfortunately she could not survive when it hit her the worst..
Priya's death had been tough on them..
Shehnaaz understood how difficult this would be for Sidharth and Pia.. she had lost her parents at a younger age and she understood the pain.. So she remained as their rock while they both had tried to overcome the sorrow of losing Priya.. So Sana ensured she remain as their support and strength in this last 6 months..
"Yeah i went to visit mom.." Sidharth muttered..
Sana stared at him sadly and hugged him tightly.. "I know i say this everyday.. But it will get easy.. i will be here with you Sidharth.. To ease your pain.." She comforted him..
Sana brushed a kiss on his cheek.. "Now lets go and have some lunch.. Pia also have not eaten anything yet.."
Sidharth gave a small smile as she dragged him outside..

Sana woke up Pia from her nap and got her to sit down for lunch.. Sana glanced at Sidharth who was lost in his thoughts.. "Sidharth.. Please eat something.." She pleaded him..
He gave a curt nod and started to eat..
Sana glanced at them and smiled.. "Since tomorrow is a holiday, why dont we go for a picnic?" Sana asked excitedly..
Pia glanced at her with an eager look.. "Wow Picnic?? But where?? Lets go some nice place!!" Pia high fived Sana getting excited over the plan..
"I cant go.." Sidharth interrupted.. "I have work.." he muttered..
Sana grew dissapointed while Pia gave him a look of disapproval.. "Why would you go office on a public holiday??"
Sidharth glanced at her.. "Because i want to.. And i dont have time for all this.."
"Sidharth.." Sana tried to speak but he stopped her..
"Shehnaaz i am not dumb okay.. I can see what you are trying to do.. I am sorry but i cant pretend being happy.. I need time.. You know what.. you wont understand.." He spoke unhappily and got back to eating..
Pia glared at him and looked at Shehnaaz sadly as she was hurt with his words..
They ate in complete silence.. Just as they were done the door bell rang..
Sidharth got up to check meanwhile Pia went back to the kitchen..
Sana got up from her seat collecting the plates silently.. "Its my birthday tomorrow.. I just wanted to spend it with my loved ones.." she muttered with a sad smile..
