RISHAB'S BUTTERFLY EFFECT (COMPLETED)

BUTTERFLY EFFECT - 16

*EDITED*

It was the day of Ragini's marriage. Including the bride, all were at the hotel. The bride was given separate room for dressing. Before her dressing, she pleased her father to see her friends. And finally, her father agreed. She was so happy to see her friends after so many years especially Rishab. All were sitting in the balcony having gala time. She then met Madhu who seems to be lost somewhere.

Ragini then took Madhu with her to the dressing room. Her makeup artist arrived and Madhu was least bothered in helping her as something was going in her mind. Seeing her lost, Ragini tried to solve her puzzle.

Ragini: Madhu, are you alright?

Madhu: Yes, Ragu. Why?

Ragu: You seem lost somewhere.

Madhu: No... Nothing.

Ragu: I know things are not like before.

Madhu: What do you mean?

Ragu: We are not close now like we were in our college days.

Madhu: Oh! Ragu. Don't think like that. It's just we were busy in our own life but our bond hasn't been changed.

Ragu: Then promise this wedding bride one thing

Madhu laughed at her and said: Anything for you, would-be bride.

Ragu: What's bothering you?

Madhu: No, I am fine.

Ragu: I am not blind, okay? Say me.

After a lot of struggle, Madhu agreed and said

Madhu: Ragu, it's about Rishu.

Ragu: I thought. That duffer. I will see to him. Tell me what's the matter.

Madhu: No, no wrong happened. Our friends everyone know that Rishu had a crush on me.

Ragu: So?

Madhu said her how she changed into a bit bold and how she met Rishu and the incidents and everything happened in the office till yesterday night.

Ragu felt that Madhu started to like him from the way she was conveying things about him but she waited.

Madhu: Say something

Ragu: What should I say?

Madhu glared and Ragu chuckled.

Ragu: What do you want me to say that you love him?

Madhu: What? Am I? No, never.

Ragu: Then what do you want me to say?

Madhu: I don't know that something is off in me. I am not able to be myself. I, sometimes, black out.

Ragu: I am not going to ask you to close your eyes and ask who is in front of you but just think from your heart. Only you know about your feelings towards him. I don't believe in love completely but if you believe, don't ignore. I have seen people saying they are in love but then separates and also the people who stays together as promised.

Madhu: Ragu, I...

Ragu: I know. Rishu is my dearest friend. I definitely know that he still loves you. JUST ASK HIM ONCE MORE whether he loves you and you will surely find your answer. You failed to notice. If you love and accept him, he will surely be happy and will make your life happy.

Madhu: How are your saying that he loves me?

Ragu: He said me everything about you. if we spoke, he would speak all the minutes about you till now.
