                                                      AR OS- 

                                     Karva- Chauth Special

A girl in her early twenties were sitting and a small smile was playing on her face. She was so lost in her thoughts that she does not when two girls of her same age come and start looking at her try to gain her attention but she does not. They even waved in front of her eyes but still she was lost in her thoughts, when they remained unsuccessful to try to gain her attention, only then one girl shouted in her ear, making her jump in terror and she looked annonyingly to both her friends

G1:''Kya hai muskii pagal ho gayyi hai? Aisee koi chillata hai kya? Aur dii aap bhi iskee saath mill gayye?''

She asked whole-irritated

Mu:''Aab yar tu humari bat sun hi nahin rahii thi to kya Karen kab se boola rahein hai kyoon anjie''

The girl who shouted in her ears answer back

An:''Aur nahin to kya ridzi to day-dreaming kitna karti hai yar''

The another girl said

Ri:''Kya dii aap bhi naa bas yeh muskii to hai hii pagal aap bhi iskee saath vaise hii hotee jaa rahee ho''

Mu:''Oye tune mujhe pagal kaha?''

She asked while smacking her arm

Ri:''Aur nahin to kya kitna chillati hai tu pata nahin bechara rahul tujhe kaise handle karta hai''

Mu:''Oye vo khota mujhe kya handle karega mai hii ose handle karti hun''

Ri:''Yea dikhta hai bechare kii saara time band bajii rehti hai tu ose kitna pareshan karti hai aur vo bechara tere pyaar meiin majnu bas saara time tere aage-peeche ghumta hai''

Hearing this muskaan blushed

An:''aww dekho rahul ke nam par kaise blush kar rahii hai yeh Punjab di sherni''

Mu:''chal oye mujhe pareshan karna band karoo tu anjie jaise atul tere se kam pyaar karta hai aisii koi bat hai jot u kahe aur vo poora naa karee''

Ri:''han dii yeh to hai atull jeej is sweetheart aapne bola ki aap aapni post-graduate ke bad shaadi karoge, immediately man gayye jeeju really dii u r very lucky''

An:''Han yeh to hai doosron ke liyye vo Mallik emterprise ka managing director Atull Mallik hai par mere liyye sirff mera atull hai''

She said dreamingly

Mu&Ri:''aww''

They teased her

An:''okay enough girls vaise muskii hum yaan ridzi ko yeh bolne aye the kii mom ne ose ghar jaldi bulaya hai''

Ri:''kyoon dii?''

Mu:''Oye madam chahe hum dono bhi engaged hai par shaadi terii hai sid ke saath 20 din bad aur 2 din bad karva chauth hai to terii saas aur aunty chahti hai kii tu fast karee''

Ri:''han par vo to mai har year karti hun naa''

She asked innocently

An:''han ridzi par iss bar tujhe sid ke liyye rakhna hai naa''

Ri:''ohh''

She replied with a small smile, yes she was engaged to Siddhant Modi, he was her senior in college and he liked her and send her rishta which her parents agreed, it was a nice decision being their daughter married to Siddhant Modi, well settled son of well settled parents, and riddhima is not like anjali, she everytime support her parents decisions and agreed with them. Moreover sid is a nice guy, her parents thinks he is good for their daughter,  And riddhima supported their decision as she has no one in her life and moreover she thinks her parents always right for her.

She came out from her thoughts with again anjie calling

An:''oye madam aapne khawabon se bahar aaa jaldi se nahin to mom aaj mujhe mar dengii kii mai tujhe jaldi ghar nahin lekar ayi''

Ri:''umm sorry dii chaliye''

Mu:''han chalo mai bhi nikalti hun aaj mummy jii mere ghar aane vaali hai''

Ri:''kyoon muskii tub hi rahul ke liyye vrat rakh rahii hai''

Mu:''han yar maine socha next year se to rakhna hii hai practice ho jayegi.''

An:''han yeh bhi sahii hai aab humein kaunsa ridzi terii tarah karva-chauth fast ka long experience hai, sachii meiin muskii yeh ladkii karva-chauth ko lekar bahut excited rehti hai har year.''

Riddhima smiled to her sister as she was right, from her childhood when she saw her mother doing fast for her dad, in beginning for her karva-chauth means new bangles, mehndi and lots of food which her mom used to eat in morning and new dresses, she herself is very fond of red colour and when she saw her mother dressed in red saree or some combination of red, she wants a new dress for herself in red colour. As the time passed and she grow up she start understanding the real meaning of this ritual, that it was for husbands then she understand y her mom used to do pooja of her dad and drank water from his hands and eat from his hands and y dad used to give mom a gift. And from the last 4 years she start keeping the karva-chauth fast and indeed she is very fond of this ritual. With these thoughts they reached home where samriti was waiting eagerly for them and as soon as they entered in their house hold

Sa:''kahan reh gayyi thi tum dono? Mai kab se wait kar rahii hunt um dono ka, anjali ekk kam bola that um dono ko vobhi nahin hua tere se pata hai abhie Mrs. Modii gayyi tum dono ka wait karte karte''

Samriti scolded both her daughters

An:''mom yeh aap aapni iss betii(pointing to riddhima) se poocho pata nahin kahan khotii rehti hai aadha time to ise iskee sapnon se bahar nikalne meiin lag jaata hai.''

Anjali said putting all blame on riddhima

Ri:''dii saara blame mujh par mat daalo vo to mai thi naa jo jeeju se phone par half-hour bat kar rahii thi''

An:''aab tera vo sid tujhe phone nahin karta iskaa matlab yeh to nahin kii mai bhi atul se bat naa karun''

Ri:''han to kijiye naa maine kab mana kiyya par saara blame mujh par kyoon dal rahee ho aap''

Before anjali can reply

Sa:''chupp ho jao tum dono kitni badii ho gayyi ho aur abhie bhi bacho jaise ladte ho''

An:''mom hum kahan lad rahee the yeh to hum bas ekk-doosre ko tease kar rahee the kyoon ridzi''

She replied while putting her arms around riddhima

Ri:''yea mom don't worry''

She hugged anjie back

Sa:''han jaanti hun mai achaa sun riddhima yeh teraa shagun(points to thall) ka saaman hai aur anjie kashish(atul's mom)ka phone aya tha vo kal aayengi''

An:''I know mom mai jaanti hun vo actually jo atul mujhe dene vaala hai vo abhie ready nahin hua''

Sa:''oh tabhie''

Ri:''hayee dii jeeju is so romantic''

An:''kya mom aap dono bhi naa''

She blushed and ran to her room and both riddhima and samriti smiled

Sa:''achaa riddhima sun aaj tum aur anjie sham meiin market chale jaana aur jo kuch bhi lena ho le aanaa aapni bangles to especially vo nahin hai ok''

Riddhima nodded and left.

In evening

Riddhima along with anjie and muski was in market for shopping for herself, Muski was waiting for rahul as he was joining them. Meanwhile muskii and anjie was busy buying some accessories, riddhima moved to bangles corner then she heared

B:''kya yar abhie tub hi naa bas kab se smujhe yahan lekar aya hai aur le kuch rahaa nahin hai''

Ab:''abeyy armaan chupp kar naa tu ekk to merii nikki mere liyye pehle bar karva-chauth ka fast rakh rahii hai to mai ooske liyye kuch special hi loonga naa''

Riddhima smiled hearing abhie

Ar:''yea right vo bechari tere liye bhookh rahegi aur tu ooske liyye goft legaa, I mean yar paani bhi nahin pee sakte what's this mujhe to yeh ritual samajh nahin hii ata bechari ladies, girls bhookhi rehti hai kii oonke husband ki age lambi ho I mean whats this pagalpanti.''

He said with irritation hearing him riddhima butted in

Ri:''well armaan jii yeh pagalpan nahin hai yeh pyaar jatane ka tareeka hai.''

Hearing his favourite voice armaan turned and saw her he know her she is younger sister of his brother's fiance and she was looking straight in his eyes

Ar:''riddhima aap yahan''

Ri:''jii mai vo yahan anjie dii aur muski ke saath ayi thi''

Ar:''okay to kahan hai anjie''

Ri:''vo vahan doosre corner meiin hai''

Ab:''vaise armaan tu kuch bhull nahin rahaa''

Ar:''oh sorry riddhima yeh abhimanyu hai mera friend atul aur anjie ki engagement ke time U.S. meii tha''

Ri:''hii abhimanyu jii''

Ab:''wait riddhima aap yeh jii armaan ke liyye hi bachayiye mujhe aap abhie hi kahiye''

Riddhima smiled at his friendly nature

Ab:''aur abhie aapne jo ise karva-chauth ke bare meiin bola please samjhayiye ise''

Ar:'' abeyy oye mujhe kya samjhna hai pata nahin kya pagalpan hai yeh binaa matlab ke bhookhe-pyyase rahoo''

Ri:''nahin matlab hai , well its all about belief, love and affection. Aap nahin jaante kii kisii ke liyye kuch karne se kitna achaa lagta hai aur fir jab vo insan vo ho jisee aap dilon jaan se pyaar karte ho, jiske saath saat-phere liyye ho, ooske liyye to aur bhi khushi milti. Ooske saath jeevan bhar saath nibhane ke sapne ke saath, aapna pyaar dikhane ko kitna achaa ehsaas hai yeh. Aur rahii bat bhookhe rehne kii to yeh to kisii ladki ka dill hi bta sakta hai vo kitna achaa ya aalag mehsoos karti hai. Yeh sirff ekk ehsaas hai armaan jii jisee words meiin nahin bta sakte. Aapke liyye bhi jab koi dill se aisaa kuch karega tab dekhiyega aapko kitni khushi hogii. Yeh mesoos karke kii vo aapse kitna pyaar karti hai. Aapko pata chalega kii chahe aap dono meiin choti-moti nok-jhok hoti rehti hai par vo aapko bahut pyaar karti hai aur aap ekk-doosre ke liyye bane hai. Aur jab aap dekhenge kii jo ladkii bilkul bhookh nahin seh sakti, vo aapke liyyefast rakh kar kitni khush hai to dekhiyega aapko oosko pyaar karne ko dill chahega aur vaise bhi humare yeh chote-chote rituals hii humari zindagi ko aur khoobsorat bana dete hai aur humein humare aapnon ke aur kareeb le aate hai''

She said with a smile on her face and armaan was lost in her words, he never knew someone can think about such a way and could understand the ritual so beautifully. And his chain of thoughts break with atull's voice

At:''dekha bhaii tabhie mom kehti hai shaadi kar lo jaldi se''

Ab:''han jitni jaldi shaadi karega riddhima ki tarah koi mill jaayega tujhe samjhane ke liyye''

An:''han aur armaan bhaii fir aap bhi pagalpanti nahin lagega kyonki aapke liyye bhi koi fast rakhega''

Ra:''han armaan aab to tu shaadi kar hii atoll tujhse chota hai still he is engaged''

And armaan frowned hearing all of them

Ar:''mujhe lagaa tha hum yahan tumhari respective partners ke liyye gifts lena aaye hai aur tum merii shaadi ke piche pad gayye ho, mere pas time nahin hai''

And hearing him all laughed

Mu:''oye Mr.The Busy Mallik shaadi business deal ya koi appointment nahin hai jot ere pas time nahin hai''

At:''han bhaii bechari mom kabse bol rahii hai shaddi kar lo par aap nahin sunte''

An:''han bhaii mere aur atul ki shaadi se pehle kam se kam aap engage to ho jao''

Ab:''yar anjie ooske liyye ladki hona jaruri hai par yeh ladki dekhe to naa''

Ra:''seriously armaan its time yar''

Riddhima looked at him his expressions clearly told he was not comfortable with this marriage topic so she try to help him

Ri:''kya dii aap log bhi naa jab oonhe oonki dream-girl milegi kar lenge shaadi aap log bhi naa ,chalein aab shopping karen''

All nodded and armaan smiled at her and thanked her and all left for shopping and armaan

Ar:''riddhima mujhe merii dream-girl mill kar bhi nahin millii''

He sighed and left.

Here in bangle section riddhima was selecting bangles for herself but she is confused only then she heared

Ar:''vo red aur pink vaali aap par bahut achii lagengi''

She turned and he smiled at her which she returned and looked the bangles which he pointed, it was a beautiful one and she liked them

Ar:''well aisaa mujhe lagaa kii yeh aap par bahut sundar lagegi aagar aapko boora lagaa to sorry''

Ri:''nahin armaan jii sorry kyoon actually thanks I love them really''

And after giving him a smile she asked shopkeeper to pack them but he said she try them and she nodded and shopkeeper put a cream on her wrist as it was glass bangles so may be they broke and suddenly the shopkeeper excused himself and riddhima start wearing bangles herself only then armaan put his hand and took bangles from her hand and riddhima looked in his eyes blue-grey-oceanic eyes while armaan start putting cream on her wrist and slowly massaging her wrist and riddhima does not know y she shivered with his touch, armaan placed two bangls slowly then then shopkeeper comes and armaan come back to reality and leave her hand knowing its not right he belongs to someone else but his heart does not believe the facts.

Then everyone comes and after some more shopping all retired to their respective homes. And armaan was feeling restless, he was restless from past one year he always loved her for him it was always it's a love at first sight he still remembered the day when he saw the angel of his life first time, he rememberd it was the one year ago when he saw her first time.

Flashback

He was the C.E.O. of Mallik Enterprise and most eligible bachelor, all the girls drooled over him, he was the dream of every girl. But he is not interested as he was still waiting for his dream girl, little did he know his search was going to complete, he was going to pick her mother from market as his dad caught up with some meeting and he was waiting for his mother, he was not there on time as it was traffic due to some festival and he did not know about that and when he reached the place where his mom was waiting for him. It was night time and then he saw a girl who was in front of his car and due to the lighting she put her hands on her eyes and he saw her hands covered with heena and then he saw her eyes deep green almond eyes and he was busy admiring her that he did not realized she was no longer there and he was standing in middle of road. With the another cars honk he came back to reality and he parked his car and come out and try to look for the girl. And if it was destined  that he can met her, he was looking here and there while walking and he was not at all paying attention and suddenly he bumped into someone and he feels something wet on his shirt and he saw his shirt has the damp imprints of heena, he was frustrated he was wearing a white shirt that too his favourite one and he immediately looked to the person

Ar:''what the hell dekh''

But his sentence left incomplete as he saw those deep-green almond eyes filled with tears and he looked at her and she was looking firstly to her hands which was completely messed up because of bumping and then to his shirt which has the imprints of her hands, tears were bleeming in her eyes

Ar:''hello miss its okay please aap royiye mat please''

He does not know y he can not see her crying but she replied

G:''merii mehndi sab finish ho gayya I am so sorry''

And she ran from there and he does not know how to stop her but he was so attracted towards her that he wants to ran behind her and wants to comfort her but he could not. He does not even know her name yet he wants be with her. He sighed and ran his hand in his hairs dreamingly.

Since that day armaan was restless, her deep green almond eyes were always in his mind, her angelic face always in his heart, her voice always rang in his ears. It was almost 2 months and he was completely aware that he was completely in love with her. He wants to find her but could not, he did not even know her name. He went to same market for innumerable times just to have her a single glance but nothing. Only then his younger brother atul revealed that he was in love with anjali and wants to marry her. His parents initially did not agreed because they did not want to marry atul before armaan. But armaan somehow managed to agree them as he was never going to marry anyone else, he wants to marry her only and he was ready to wait for her. So his parents agreed with his continuous pleading and then as per his luck, when they go to anjali's house for atul's rishta armaan saw her, firstly he does not believe he thought he was again imagning her but no he was not, she was there she is anjali's younger sister riddhima gupta. And he was so happy to find her that he wants to propose for her hand also that too same day but somehow he controlled, he firstly wants to tell his family. But to his bad luck he discovered same day that she was engaged to Siddhant Modii and listening this his heart break in several pieces. In his whole life he loved only her, his love is true love but God has some other plans for him and he wants to tell her that he loved her but then he comes to know from atul and anjali that sid was their senior in college then armaan thought may be she loved riddhima so he does not want to come in between. But he was sure he loved her only her.

Flashback Ends

From the day he loved her and always will. Well he himself does not like sid not because he is in between him and riddhima but because he does not like his ways, He met him because of business deals and due to his cheap policies and in market his reputation is not good, he thought may be he is wrong about him, may be he truly a nice guy as he always pretentds in front of everyone, so he buried his feelings deep in his heart.

Gupta house hold

Sa:''ridzi tu har bar kii tarah aapne collge meiin hii mehndi lagvayegi naa?''

Ri:''jii mom aap to jaante ho vahan ke saare paise jo ikathe hotee hai hum charity karte hai moreover vahan ki girls bahut sundar mehndi lagati hai''

An:''han I agreed mom iss bar to vahan ko sponsor armaan bhaii kar rahee hai''

Hearing his name riddhima's moved to the moment she shared with armaan in mall and she shivered with his thought

Sa:''han yeh to hai armaan bahut achaa hai jis bhi ladkii ki zindagi meiin aayega ose khushiyan degaa''

An:''han yeh to hai''

And with these thoughts everyone retired to their rooms and riddhima was occupied with armaan's thoughts, she can feels his touch still on her arms and don't know y this feeling was creating some desires in her heart. She was thinking about him only and she drifted to sleep with his thoughts only.

Next Day

Riddhima was busy in her college arranging the function and the function was really successful. The girls really applied very beautiful heena and they collect good amount of money, moreover malliks were also going to do some charity for the old people. And armaan arrived there and riddhima looked at him and the incidence of yesterday evening played in both of their mind, and riddhima was conscious with his presence, so after exchanging pleasantries she leaves from there.

Armaan can sense she was uncomfortable with his presence. He himself did know what he done was wrong because they were not even friends either, they just know each-other, but he could not control himself after all he love her from the bottom of his heart and for him she is the reason of his loving. One thing he was sure he will never ever love anyone else and will love her all his life. But for her he know he will distance him from her.

And he sighed he was moving his way out to the college so that she would not have to face him, he does not want her to feel uncomfortable, but he stopped in his tracks when he heared someone was calling her, and his heart cheated him and he stood there to look at her

G:''riddhima didii aab aap bhi mehndi lagva lo kitni der ho gayyi hai''

Ri:''han bas abhie aatii hun yeh thoda sa kam finish kar dun''

G:''nahin dii aap kam meiin hii lagee rahoge abhie bathiye yahan''

The girl insisted

Ri:''par.''                    

G:''no par dii dekhiyega mai aapke sabse sundar mehndi lagaongi bilkul aapni tarah sundar''

And girl make riddhima sat and start applying heena on her hands

Ri:''thanks so much''

Riddhima smiled and she start looking towards her mehndi and armaan was looking at her she was indeed very fond of this ritual, and this mehndi thing, the way she was looking towards her hands, armaan can sense her love and to him she was looking so beautiful to him, her smile was so pure, she was looking like angel to him, he just wants to go sit right opposite to her and wanta to saw her but could not only then his trace break with the girl's voice

G1:''riddhima dii jeeju ka kya nam hai''

But before riddhima can replied someone comes and ask her about armaan and name come from her mouth

Ri:''armaan.''

And armaan was looking at her, they did not know the girl who was applying mehndi on riddhima's hands engraved ARMAAN on her hands and riddhima's mind was somewhere else with his name. Her thoughts again leads to him only him. And she was thinking about him. They were not friends still she remembered each and every thing of his. He secretly admired him as a human being, as a son, as a brother. She was thinking about him when her phone buzzed, it was her mom's call telling her that sid was coming to pick her up. He was there with in 15 minutes only then she realized what she was thinking she can not. Her parents believe her so much. She pushed his thoughts aside and ask the girl to hurry up and after that she start proceeding towards gate, armaan was thinking where she was going alone only then he heared mumbling

Ri:''mai gate par chalti hun nahin to sid ko wait karna padega.''

And hearing her words armaan's heart feels pain, his mind knows in some days he was someone else but his heart was not ready to to believe. And with the pain in his heart and left from there little did he know the day has something else stored for him.

As soon he reached to the gate he saw riddhima was standing there where rolling on her cheeks he does not understand what happened to her only then his gaze fell on sid he was there with some girl in his arms, and he was saying

Si(while kissing the girl):''yar maya tumhe to pata hii hai mai yeh shaadi kyoon kar rahaa hun''

Ma:''sid par shaadi karna jaruri hai''

Si:''han yar aur vaise bhi vo riddhima jaisi ladkii kahan milegi,bikul bewkoof, vo perfect marriage material hai, aaram se ghar meiin rahegi, kam se kam mere kam meiin dakhal nahin degii jaise chahonga vaise rakhunga, oos jaisi ladkii merii biwii to merii zindagi aaram se kat jaayegi, mujhe kabhie koi merii aayashi karne se nahin rookega, u know i am free bird''

Ma:''sid to tum oos se isliiyee shaadi kar rahee ho?''

Si(while nuzzling in her hair):''han aur nahin to kya nahin to oos jaisi behnjii merii choice pagal samjha hai kya mere standards itnee low nahin hai''

He said while laughing and after that he start kissing maya and start making out with her.

Armaan's fists clenched in anger, how dare he talk about her like these, he was disgusted, he wants to give him punishment right now for talking about his riddhima like this but somehow he controlled right now his main priority was riddhima and he looked at her whose face was pale and tears were in her eyes, he slowly start going towards her but before he reached to her, he saw her running outside and he ran behind her, calling her

Ar:''riddhima merii bat soono rooko riddhima''

But she does not stop and armaan was running behind her and she does not even know when she reached to isolated road and when she has no capavity to run she fell on her knees and was crying bitterly, armaan who was finding her, was relieved to saw her but when he saw her state, she was crying bitterly, his heart breaks in several pieces seeing the state of love of his life, he immediately go towards her and slowly

Ar:''riddhima.''

Riddhima looked upwards and seeing him he hugged her tightly and with her sudden hug armaan also went on his knees and embraced her in his arms, he knows she needs this and there she was crying in his embrace holding his shirt in her tiny fists and armaan can feel her tears on his chest and he was trying to calm her by rubbing her back, but no she was crying so badly that armaan was feeling restless he can not saw her tears

Ar:'' shh riddhima chupp ho jao dekho mai hun naa tumhare saath shh please riddhima chupp ho jao dekho sab theek ho jaayega mat ro riddhima mai tumhari aankhon meiin aanson nahin dekh sakta chupp ho jao bachaa''

He said while caressing her back and slowly detangles her and looked at her, seeing her he tear-strained eyes, her green eyes were swollen, he does not believe she was the same riddhima who was so happy and laughing an hour back. And then he saw her she was not crying but she seems so lost, slowly she tried to get up from the road and armaan looked at her, he wants her to talk only then her pain will be subsided 

Ar:''riddhima aap oos se bahut pyaar karti hai?''

Only he knows how much pain he feels while asking this from her only then he looked at her who was looking towards him blankly, then he heared

Ri:''nahin kabhie nahin vo sirff ekk rishta tha jo mom-dad laaye the mere liyye. Jaise ekkk arrange marriage thi vaise hii jaise mom-dad mere liyye har decision lete hai vaise hii yeh bhi oonhone liyya.''

She whispered

Ar:''riddhima maine aapka man dukhane ko nahin poocha tha yeh, mai bas chahta tha kii aap aapne iss dard ko bahar nikale. Its ok riddhima''

He holds her from her shoulder but she shrugged him off and

Ri(holding his collar):''kya its ok han its ok armaan, aapko kya lagta sab theek hai nahin mere mom-dad vo kya jab oonhe pata chalega oonka decision, oonki choice mere liyye galat nikli kaya vo seh paayenge yeh? Maf kar paayenge kii iss decision se merii zindagi kharab ho jaayegi? Jab kii oonki ismein koi galti nahin hai, sab galti merii hai tabhie to oos sid ne kaha kii mujh jaise ladkii kisii ke standard kii nahin hai. Aur aap kehte hai its ok''

She spoke in total anger and frustration and with all the trauma she again fell on her knees this time with her sudden and rough movement armaan's shirt tore and he looked at her, she was blaming herself all over the things and thinking about her mom-dad over her pain. Somewhere he was happy that she does not love that jerk and was just fulfilling her parents desires. Now he wants to hold her in his arms, to secure her from the world and sorrows.

Armaan sat beside her he does not know what to do, what to say to calm her down she is crying, she was crying not for herself, for her parents

Ar:''I am sorry riddhima meraa vo matlab nahin tha I am very sorry''

He said slowly while gently holding her from her shoulders, riddhima looked towards him with tears in her eyes, armaan wiped her tears with his thumbs but riddhima turned her face and try to get out from his hold but she could not

Ar:''riddhima mai sach keh rahaa hun meraa vo malab nahin tha I am really very sorry''

He again apologized thinking she take all his words on her heart but he was wrong when hea heared

Ri(still crying):''aap kyoon sorry bol rahee hai, saari galti to merii hai, hiccups,aagar merii galti nahin hotii to sid mujhe kabhie nahin chodta,hiccups, sab merii galti hai mom-dad ko kitna yakeen tha mujh par,hiccups, par aab sab merii vajah se ho gayya,hiccups, oonhe logon ke saamne kitna sharminda honaa padega,hiccups, sab merii galti hai kii mai sundar nahin hun,hiccups, sab merii galti hai kii mai ekk achii fianc nahin ban paayi, hiccups, sab merii galti hai tabhie to sid ne mujhe chodd diyya, hiccups, sab merii galti hai''

Now she was crying uncontrollably and armaan was rubbing her back to calm her down but all in vain she was break-down completely and was taking all the blame on herself

Ar:''nahin riddhima aapki koi galti nahin hai, aap to bahut achii hai riddhima''

But he is cut short by riddhima

Ri:''nahin mai achii nahin hun aap bhi chale jayiye yahan se nahin to mere saath koi aapko dekhega to aapka standard bhi cheap ho jaayega, mai''

But she is cut short by angry and furious armaan,

Ar:''just shut up riddhima aab ekk aur word nahin, pata bhi hai kya bole jaa rahii ho, vo bhi aapne vaare meiin, kyoon insult kar rahii ho aapni, jaanti bhi ho kya ho tum, aur tumhare jaise ladkii ko pane vaala kismet vaala hogaa. Aur yeh kya standards kii bat kar rahii ho standard oon maya jaisi ladkiyon ka nahin hotaa jo vahan sid ke saath thi, yeh jaante hue bhi kii ooski shaadi honee vaali hai, aur tum aapne aap ko bolti ho, pagal ho tum sirff ekk ghatiya insan kii bat par aisee sochti ho vo bhi aapne vaare meiin, jaana hai to soono ghatiya aur cheap vo hai jisne tumhe khoya, jisne tumhari kadar nahin kii aur tum ooski bakwas ke kaaran yeh soch kar aapni insult kar rahii ho aur tumhe koi haq nahin hai MERII Riddhima ke vaare meiin aisii bakwas batein karne kaa samjhi''

He blasted at her he knows she is hurt but hearing these words from her that too for herself he could not control his anger, right she is hurt but for some cheap person she can not judge herself, how dare she speak these kind of words. He was still angry and riddhima who was looking towards him, she never saw him angry this much, not that she feels bad he scolded her, she feels someone is actually there but her heart was just revolving around one word ''Merii Riddhima'', here armaan was looking her face when she did not speak armaan

Ar:''maine kuch kaha riddhima khabardar aage se aisii bakwas kii ok''

Riddhima hearing his firm tone nodded her head like a kid and armaan looked at her, she was so innocent how can anybody on the earth hurt her, she is pure, seeing her cute face armaan's anger calm down and he looked at her, she was not looking at him, suddenly armaan heard her whispered

Ri:''armaan jii mai sundar nahin hun naa?''

Armaan looked at her in disbelief, he was not expecting this question at all, but he looked at her who was looking in her lap, playing with her fingers, not looking at him and armaan slowly cupped her one cheek in his palm and make her look towards him

Ar:''riddhima tum bahut khoobsurat ho, aur yeh mai tumhara man rakhne ko nahin keh rahaa hun, mai yeh isliyye keh rahaa hun kyonki yehii sach hai, aur jaruri nahin hai kii khoobsurti dikhai hii jaaye, mini-skirts ya choti-chotu dresses ya fir dher saara make-up lagane se koi sundar nahin ho jaata, ooske liyye sundar honaa jaruri hai man se, aur tum vahan se itnii sundar ho kii koi bhi tumhari barabri nahin kar sakta, sirff yehii reason hai kii tumhe inn artificial cheejon ki jarurat nahin hai sundar dikhne ko. Kyonki tum bahut beautiful ho sachii,itnii beautiful kii koi bhi tumhe aapna dill de baithe tumse pyaar ho jaaye jaise mujhe hua tumhe pehli bar dekh kar''

Riddhima looked at him in disbelief, she was not expecting this, armaan loved her how is that possible

Ar:''han riddhima I love u so much''

Ri:''nahin aap mujhe kaise pyaar kar sakte ho jab sid ko mujhse pyaar nahin hua to aap kaise''

Ar:''nahin jaanta ooske vaare meiin par aapne vaare meiin jaanta hun u r the only one for me I love u so so much''

And he sucked the tears which was rolling on her cheek,as soon as his lips come in contact with her skin riddhima holds him tightly, she never feels like this, this is so new for her

Ar:''shh shona please stop crying I do not like single tear in ur eyes ur tears are so precious to me''

He said ever so softly directly looking in her green-almond eyes and riddhima looked back in his blue-greayish eyes they share a beautiful eye-lock and in between armaan tighten the grip around her waist and pulled her closer to himself, riddhima gasped with the close proximity and she shuddered as she feels his hot breath on her lips and armaan looked at her pink lips which were quivered and he was surprised as well as happy to saw how her body was reacting to his touch. He was so lost in the moment seeing her so close to himself he loose his control after all he loved her a lot. Lost in the moment  he did not when his hands start caressing her back sensuously and he was looking in her eyes slowly he placed his lips on hers, he has not the intention to kiss, he just want to feel her lips only then riddhima put her hands on his bare chest, she feels new sensation in her body and armaan feeling her hands start loosing his control and slowly start sucking her lower lip making her gasp and slowly he start kissing her slowly rubbing her lips, sucking her lips, riddhima was not responding either nor was resisting, so armaan continuously kissing her, and his grip on her waist was tightened and he deepened the kiss he then bite her lower lips making her moan in pain

Ri:''ahh''                                   

That bring armaan into reality and he slowly sucked the bite saying

Ar:''sorry shona I am so sorry''

And he place a kiss on the bite, suddenly it start raining and they both were drenching in rain, armaan looked here and there to found a shelter, and his gaze fell on the light which was coming in between of the forest, he get up and forwarded his hand to riddhima for standing up but she could not as she twist her ankle so armaan gently picked riddhima up in his arms and leads her towards the light, in between riddhima hid her face in his chest as she was feeling so much cold and armaan feels sensation in his body as soon as he feels she nuzzled her face on his bare chest, he was hardly controlling himself after that kiss and here she was awakening his demons unknowingly, armaan somehow controlled and they lead to the light it was some cottage, and there was nowhere in sight, as they reached there they were completely drenched, armaan slowly make her sit on the grass as it was the only option there, and he himself start looking something so that he can lit up fire and he found some matchsticks and lit up the fire and he removed his shirt which was already torn and he turned to saw the breath taking sight in front of his eyes, riddhima was try to dry her hairs and her duppatta was lying on side and he can see all her curves which makes his desires go wild, her sky-blue dress was clinging to her body, making her body exposed as she was bending he can see her deep valley and the water drops which was going inside her and he has the sudden urge to suck all the water drops and kiss her everywhere, touch her everywhere where nobody touched her. And suddenly his eyes met with hers she is nervous as she can feel his piercing gaze on herself, she feels she was going to burn under his intense gaze if he does not let his eyes off from her, armaan was looking at her with so much passion, he just want to look at her like this ever, but only then he realized she was trembling due to cold

Ar:''riddhima aapko thand lag jaayegi rukiye mai yahan dekhta hun shayad kuch ho''

He get up and try to look here and there only then thunder stuck and riddhima immediately hugged him tightly with fear, armaan was taken back with the hug but he respond the hug

Ar:''kuch nahin hogaa riddhima dekho mai yahan hun''

A cool breeze hit riddhima's body and she slowly opened her eyes and saw herself sleeping on armaan's chest and his hands were wrapped around her waist. She looked at his face, he was sleeping so peacefully, he has smile playing over his lips, riddhima looked at him, there were lipstick marks on his chest, and her dry mehndi was on his shirt, she remembered last night how he traced her hands with his name'' armaan'' then she realized she has his name engraved on her hand, a lone tear escaped from her eyes thinking about last night and she placed a kiss on his chest making him smile wide even in his sleep he sensed her and she slowly get up and wore her clothes, with the movements around himself armaan woke up and he looked towards riddhima and gave a smile to him, he was about to say something when he heard she was saying

Ri:''aap mujhe gharr chodd denge?''

Armaan firstly did not understand he wants to talk to her, after all he loved her and what happened in between them for him it was not mistake, it was his love true love and he wants to be with her, he was still in his thoughts when

Ri:''chodd denge naa?''

He was baffled at her question what she was asking to leave her at her house or to leave her but he nodded and start wearing his clothes he noticed riddhima was not looking towards him and after wearing they both leads outside, it was mid-night and the rain has stopped and after sitting in car, armaan drove towards riddhima's house, he was looking towards her with the corner of his eyes, she was looking outsidew as in deep thoughts, he wants to talk to her but could not find the words and he feels something wrong with her also, he knows what happened between them was not right, yet it feels so right to him, but he wants to hera something from her but she is so quite that her quiteness was killing him, suddenly he heard her

Ri:''armaan jii rookiye meraa gharr aaa gayya''

And armaan stopped the car and riddhima immediately get down from car and armaan called her 

Ar:''umm riddhima''

Ri:''mujhe jaana hai subhh ho rahii hai sab karva-chauth ke liyye abhie ooth jaayenge''

She said and ran inside house

Ar:''riddhima tum aisee kyoon behave kar rahee ho?''

And after few minutes he left from there with a confusion. Here riddhima entered in her room and slumped on bed whole crying. What she has done she was going to marry someone else and she gave herself, her soul, her heart, her each and everything to her Armaan. She was crying over her fate, she knows whatever happened between her and Armaan was not the one night stand not a mistake, it was a pure love from both the sides, she can feel Armaan's true love for her, how much he loved her, she knows he will never leave her no matter what happened, but what about her, her parents, their reputation, their desires, the society, she is engaged for god sake, and this is all wrong, though sid is wrong but this does not give her the right to break all the customs of society and put the reputation of her family on stake. She can not do this to her parents, she loved them so much and they loved her like anything and trust her so much, how she can just break their dreams, their trust, she can hurt herself but not her parents. But what about Armaan, what is his fault in all these things, how she can do this with him, knowing he was not playing with her body, his each touch was so pure, and if she stopped him he will but now what she can not choose between him and her parents, she knows what she has to do and knows what so ever her decision will be Armaan will support her.

Ri:''mai aisaa nahin kar sakti mumma-papa ko sharminda nahin kar sakti, chahe mujhe iskee liyye aapni zindagi hii kharab kyoon naa karnii pade mai jaati hun Armaan mujhe samjhenge''

Here Armaan was thinking about Riddhima, how she was so quiet, was ignoring him, what she was thinking, does she think it was one night stand for him or he was taking advantage for her. But how can she think like this, when he confessed his Love to her, though circumstances was not in his favor, but his Love for her was True, and what so ever happened between them was feels so right, so blissful, he knows if she was virgin before this, he was also, she is the only girl whom he make love, it was not at all lust, it was Love and now he just wants to ask her for marriage, after night's incidence, he will never let her marry to sid, he was the only one whom she was going to marry, and he knows shashank uncle and samriti aunty also wants their daughter's happiness, and after knowing sid's truth they will never let her marry to that jerk sid.And he knows this is what must be bothering her after all how she responds to his touch was not the weak moment in which she falls, it was Love from her side also, yet her Love is un confessed but he knows she Loves him too and he makes her confess also that too very soon and he knows what he has to do for this.

Ar:''mujhe pta hai riddhima kii berukhi ka kaaran par koi bat nahin shona mai sab theek kar doonga, mai tumhe aapna bna loonga,aur aab tum merii bat samjhogi shona''

Next Day

Armaan's mom was going to Gupta House with Anjali's karva-chauth shagun

At:''bhaii kuchh karoo naa mom mujhe anjie ke gharr nahin lekar jaa rahii hai please bhaii''

Atull pleaded to armaan as his mom was not allowing to  come with her and armaan giggled seeing atull's cute-frowned face

At:''han han has lo bhaii jab aapka time aayega to dekhenge bhabhi se kaise dur rahoge sahii keh rahii thi riddhima aabhie aap humari haalat nahin samjhoge''

Hearing riddhima's name armaan's eyes lit up and his smile deepened and he come out from his thoughts with atull's call

At:''bhaii please bolo naa mom ko''

Ar:''okay champ i will try''

At:''yea thanks''

And armaan walked to her mom who was placing anjali's shagun in the thall and atull quietly followed

Ar:''mom mujhe''

Ka(armaan's mom):''armaan aagar tumhe atull ke anjali ke gharr jaane ke vaare meiin bat karni hai to i am not going to listen betaa''

She replied while continue with her working

Ar:''mom ekk bar merii bat to sun lijiye''

Ka:''armaan betaa yeh ladies ka function hai moreover yeh(points to atull) rat ko aayega hii anjali ka fast khulvane''

Ar:''yea champ mom is right''

Hearing armaan's voice atull's face fell and

Ar:''but mom champ is right also naa dekho yeh bechara anjie ke liyye kitne pyaar se yeh dress banva kar laaya hai specially aapne saamne khade hokar isne sab select karvaya hai to yeh jitne pyaar se laaya hai ootne pyaar se ise oosko denee bhi do naa mom, anjie kitna special feel karegi mom after all yeh ooska pehla karva-chauth hai so mom please le jayiye naa ise''

Ka:''ok armaan par ekk condition hai tum bhi aaoge humare saath''

Ar:''mom mai kyoon?''

Ka:''kyonki mai keh rahii hun nahin to atull bhi nahin aayega''

At:''naa mom bhaii aayenge naa kyoon bhai''

Armaan nodded and after giving hug to armaan atull left to call anjali that he is coming and kashish leave to get ready and armaan quickly put a box in anjali's thall and leaves from there smiling.

Gupta House Hold

Armaan and his family was warmly welcomed by Guptas and they all were sitting in the, and armaan was looking here and there try to have just a glimpse of hers, but no she is nowhere at sight and armaan was thinking that he have to tell her before talking to his and her parents, suddenly he heard

Ka:''areey samriti bachiyan najar nahin aaa rahii hai?"'

Sa:''han bas abhie aatii hii hongii actually subhh sargi khane ke bad dono so gayyi hai ''

Ka:''chalo achaa hai rest kar lengii dono vaise bhi fast rakhna aasan thode naa hai anjali ka to yeh first fast hai naa?''

Sa:''han kashish aur vo ladkii 1 hour bhi binaa kuchh khaye nahin reh sakti par riddhima vo 4 salon se rakh rahii hai she will manage''

Ka:''han to aapko anjali ko nahin rakhne denaa chahiye tha naa''

Before samriti can reply atull butted in

At:''maine bhi yehii kaha tha mom anjie ko par dekho naa aab merii anjie poora din bhookhi-pyaasi rahegi''

Hearing him all smiled at his concern and love and care

Sa:''han kashish fir maine socha next year se to rakhna hii hai par anjali ne kaha vo atull ke liyye rakhna chahti hai''

And atull smiled he knows she loves him very much

Ar:''dekh le champ anjie tujhse bahut pyaar karti hai aab tu bhi ooska dhayan rakhna''

And atull nodded

Sa:''to armaan betaa tum kab shaadi kar rahee ho?''

Ka:''areey samriti pooch mat bas shaadi ka nam lo aur yeh bhag jaayega''

She said making a face

At:''mom koi bat nahin jab bhaii ko oonki Dream Girl mill jaayegi dekhiyega vo kaise jaldi se shaadi karenge kyoon bhaii?''

Armaan smiled and

Ar(in his heart):''don't worry mom aapka yeh sapna jaldi hii poora hogaa may be champ kii shaadi se pehle hii merii shaadi ho jaaye kyonki mujhe merii Dream Girl, meraa Pyaar, merii Riddhima jo mill gayyi hai''

He smiled remembring her only then he heard the voice of anklets and he looked towards the direction and there she was standing, claded in pink net saree, with small matching ear rings and here hair tied in a bun and some of her hair strands were falling on her face and she was looking beautiful but there is something missing and that was the smile on her face and a shine in her eyes which he loves the most, but he can sense her she is lost and was not to herself, he just wants to hold her in his arms tightly saying them that he is there and he will make everything perfect.

Suddenly riddhima who was lost in her own world come back to reality

Ka:''areey vah aaj to samriti bachiyon kii najarootarni padegi kitni sundar dikhh rahii hai donoo''

She said while caressing both anjali and riddhima's head lovingly while samriti proudly looked at her daughters who were looking so beautiful while armaan and atull both were busy admiring the love of their lives,and both again sit while armaan was still standing looking at her with a daze, after giving shagun to anjali

Ka:''vaise Riddhima meree armaan kee liyye bhi aapne jaise ekk Riddhima dhundh dee naa.''

Hearing armaan's name riddhima's eyes shoot-up and she saw him standing right in front of her,only then she realized he is there for whole the time but she did not even notice.

As their eyes met armaan looked at her with all the love while riddhima did not dare to look at him and she lowered her eyes and armaan sighed.

And the days passed quickly but for armaan it was like ages as he was trying from the time when he put his first feet in gupta hosehold to talk but as if she has firm not to talk to him, she was ignoring him, and this pissed off armaan.

Soon it was 7:00 p.m. and all the guests start arriving for karva-chauth function in gupta hosehold. So samriti told both her daughters to get ready and they leaves.

By the time both riddhima and anjali come back getting ready, riddhima saw siddhant was sitting their with his parents, it was not unusual after all he is her fiance he has to come there, but seeing him unknowingly her eyes start finding him armaan and there he was standing in the corner with a angry face, she can say by seeing his expressions that he can do sid's murder bare-handed at the same moment but he was controlling his anger. As soon as his eyes fell on her he was looking at her with an angry glare asking as if asking her what was that jerk doing there she lowered her eyes.

Next moment she slowly walked towards Modis and greeted them and sat beside them when all forced her to sat beside sid and she without any objection sat beside him, now she was sitting between sid and his mother and seeing the scene in front of his eyes armaan is fuming in anger. Y the hell she is doing this to herself.

Next moment he heard sid's mom asking riddhima to forward her hand so that she can put her ancestral jewel in her hands, and armaan was looking at her with anger and she slowly forward her hand, this is it he will not allow her to make her life hell while marrying that sid, he start going towards them when he heard

Mrs.Modi:''sid yeh to riddhima ko nahin aaa rahaa maine kal tujhe kahaa tha naa kii ooska size le lenaa''

She asked him 

Si:''mom vo''

He fumbled with words not knowing what to do

Sa:''koi bat nahin aap bad meiin riddhima ke size ka karva dijiyega''

She said and they nodded, riddhima was looking towards armaan who was angry but smiling hearing this

Ar(in his heart):''offcourse oosko vo nahin ata kyonki vo sirff merii jo  hai aur mai aab aur intejar nahin kar sakta, mai abhie sab ko btata hun''

While he was thinking this riddhima excused herself and when she passed from him armaan's gaze fell on her hand which she was hiding from morning, she was tieing a hanky around her palm and he was shocked beyond limits to saw this, y she was hiding the place where his name engraved, y she was doing all this, was she was going to marry sid still,this is y she was ignoring him, does not try to tell her parents about sid, y she is so adamant to make her life like hell, y she was doing this to him, not giving him just a single chance to explain her and now her this gesture make him realize may be she was not with him.

He slowly moved outside with a broken-heart and tears were bleeming in his eyes, he moved to garden crying remembring his Love for her, the night they spend together.

Ar:''aakhir kyoon riddhima?''

He was asking the same and same question to himself y she did this and next moment he saw her standing in her balcony, she does not know he was in garden,seeing her face armaan can easily say she was crying. Suddenly their eyes met and armaan forward his hand to her crying for His Love but riddhima draw the curtains and fell on her knees crying

Ri:''Jaane kis mod pe le aayi yeh zindagi

        Mai jaano naa(She remembred his face)

Ar:''Dhadkno Kii yeh bechanioyan aey humsafar

       Mai pechano naa(He looked for her)

Ri:''Thehri hai  zameen thehra hai pal

(She remembered the night her life stopped the moment)

Ar:''Man meiin machii kyoon hulchal

        Chubhti hai mujhko kyoon dooriyan

(He remembered her leaving him ignoring him)

Ri:''Koi naa jaane majboriyan

(She looked everyone)

Ar&Ri:'' Kabhie naa sukoon aayaa kabhie naa karar aayaa

(Both were crying)

Ri&Ar:''  Jab se hai tum pe mujhko pyaar aayaa

(They both cried)

After sometime riddhima heard knock on her door, she immediately straighten her clothes and open the door and find anjali standing there

An:''ridzi kya kar rahii hai yar chall jaldi se chand niklane vaala hai''

Riddhima nodded and leave with her and they both moved to garden where all others were already present and atull comes with armaan

Ar:''champ mujhe gharr jaana hai kuchh kam hai''

At:''nahin bhaii aap aapna jo bhi kam hai bad meiin karna''

Ar:''lekin champ''

Ka:''han armaan u r not going anywhere betaa''

Ar:''par mom mai yahan kya krunga''

He said not looking at her

Su:''tum sab dekhna betaa fir tumhe experience ho jaayega''

He said teasingly armaan smiled and he knows he has no other option but to stay suddenly muskaan shouted

Mu:''dekho chand aaa gayya''

And all looked towards chand it was so beautiful in between with the clouds while armaan was looking at his chand, he was trying hard to not to look at her but his heart cheated him.

Next moment all started doing pooja and riddhima was standing there with pooja thall in her hands with sid in front of her but her heart was not allowing her to do pooja, then armaan looked at her, seeing her eyes he knows she does not want to do this but y? if she does not want to do pooja with sid y she was not saying this, her one word and he will face all the problems, but her quiteness was confusing him with each and every second, only then she slowly lifter her hands up to see the chandd, armaan noticed her hands were trembling and next moment he saw her something was shining in her wrist and that's it now what so ever is gonna happen he will face, but he was not going to leave her alone, before he go to her, he saw her leaving the pooja thall and she was start crying bitterly, all were immediately rushed to her, armaan holds her hands while shashank holds her shoulders, 

Sh:''kya hua riddhima tum kyoon ro rahii ho bachaa?''

Ri:''mujhse nahin hogaa dad mujhse nahin hogaa please''

Now she start crying uncontrollably and seeing his princess shashank was restless

Sh:''kya nahin hogaa riddhima please betaa aapne papa ko batao naa''

Ri(crying):''shaadi sid se nahin par aapki izzat mai kya karun armaan aapki reputation mai aapse pyaar''

No body was understanding anything except armaan he knows what she was saying before anyone can say anything riddhima collapsed in shashank and armaan's hands

Sh:''riddhima oothh naa betaa''

An:''ridzi.''

Sa:''shashank merii bachii''

Sh:''kuchh nahi hogaa samriti humari riddhima ko chalo ise aandar lekar chalo anjali doctor ko phone karoo''

Anjali nodded while shashank and armaan carried her inside, all were worried for her except sid in his eyes it was all drama. Armaan was hell worried for her seeing her in this state.

After sometime riddhima opened her eyes and seeing herself lying on her bed and everyone was around her, 

Ri:''papaa.''

Sh:''kuchh mat bolna riddhima mujhe tumse yeh ummed nahin thi''

Hearing his stern voice her eyes filled with tears

Ri:''mujhe maf kar dijiye papaa mai kuchh nahin karna chahti thi mai aapki khushi ke liyye sid se shaadi karungi''

But shashank cut her off

Sh:''tumhe kya lagta hai riddhima hum tumse pyaar nahin karte, hum tumhe sab jaante hue oos narak(hell)meiin bhejj dengee betaa hum aapke parents hai''

He said while patting her head

Ri:''papaa mai dar gayyi thi''

Sa:''kyoon betaa humari liyye aap sabse important ho''

Sh:''aur vaise bhi tum to kuchh btati nahin thanks armaan tumne sab bataya betaa nahin to hum kabhie aapne aap ko maf anhin lar paate''

He said while looking at him who was standing beside him whole worried

Ar:''nahin uncle merii jagah koi bhi hotaa yehii karta''

All smiled and

An:''chal ridzi aab kha le kuchh''

But riddhima looked at armaan she actually never keep fast for sid it was for armaan only when she did not speak 

Sa:''kya hua riddhima kha naa''

Ka:''ya tum chahti ho kii armaan tumhe khillaye jiske liyye tumne vrat rakha hai''

She said sitting beside her and armaan-riddhima shocked hearing it

Sa:''kashish yeh kaise''

At:''mom yeh sab''

Ka:''well mai bhi iskii (armaan) kii mom hun sab jaanti hun aur atull tumne shayad aapni dadii ka kangan riddhima ke haath meiin anhin dekha''

All looked towards riddhima's wrist

Su:''areey han yeh to maa ka kangan hai''

Ar:''mom mai aapko''

But he is cut short

Ka:''bad meiin armaan bhaii sahib aagar aapko koi aitraz naa ho to mai aapne armaan ke liyye aapki riddhima maangti hun''

Shashank looked at her while she joins her hands and he holds her hands

Sh:''kya keh rahii hai bhabhi armaan ko aapne damad ke rup meiin dekh kar mujhse bda khushnasib koi nahin hogaa par mai riddhima kii marji janna chahta hun''

He replied while looking towards her daughter, all were looking at her, waiting for her answer, armaan was waiting impatiently for her''yes'', when she slowly nodded her head in agreement all were very happy, and samriti hugged riddhima tightly while shashank and sujal hugged each-other and kashish hugged armaan whose happiness has no bound

Ka:''happy my child''

Ar:''yes mom i love u u r the best''

Ka:''love u too beta''

After that everyone congratulate each-other

Sh:''vaise ladies aapko aaj bhookh nahin lagii mujhe to bahut lagii hai kuchh khane ko milega ya humse bhi fast rakhvana hai''

He said teasingly

Sa:''jayiye jayiye aap koi fasr nahin rakh sakte anyways chalo sab dinner karte hai''

Su:''han bahut bhookh lagii hai''

With these all start leaving the room it was only armaan who was at the door he was about to leave when he heard

Ri:''aap meraa vrat nahin khulvayenge?''

She asked in a soft voice armaan looked at her and he slowly moves to her 

Ar:''tumne meree liyye vrat rakha tha?''

Though he knows the answer yet he wants to hear from her mouth

Ri:''jii vo subhh jab anjie dii ne aapke yahan se ayi hui sargi khaii thi to maine bhi oosimeiin se khaya''

She replied in a soft voice not meeting his gaze and armaan placed a kiss on her forhead and picked her in his arms

Ri:''aap kya kar rahee hai?''

She asked while try that he leaves her but

Ar:''kuchh nahin tumhara vrat khulvane lekar jaa rahaa hun''

And after that both looked in each-other's eyes and after reaching in garden armaan made her stand on her feet and riddhima took the thall for doing pooja but armaan stopped her and he kneel down on his knees

Ar:''Miss Riddhima Gupta i am head over heels in love with u, it was love at first sight for me, the day i saw u in market on the day of karva-chauth previous year, i love u and with each and every passing second my love for u is getting deeper and deeper, i want to spend my whole life with u, to have babies with u, to grow old with u, to saw our grand children growing with u when we are great grand parents of children and leaned on ur shoulder till the last breath of my life.

I want only my name engraved on ur hands, i want u riddhima in my life because i love u so so much. So Miss Gupta can u please give me the right to open ur fast every year and will u please give me the my one and only happiness by becoming Mrs.Riddhima Armaan Mallik?''

Riddhima has tears in her eyes by the time he finished she immediately bent down and hugged him tightly armaan hugged her back while she was crying over his shoulder

Ri:''i am sorry armaan maine aapko hurt kiyya jaanti thi aap mujhse pyaar karte hai par nahin jaanti thi itnaa pyaar karte hai aap mujhse''

Armaan detangled her from his and wiped her tears

Ar:''shh shona chupp ho jao mujhe tumhari aankhon meiin ansoon nahin aapna chehra dekhna hai aur vaise bhi aab aanson nahin sirff khushiyan hii khushiyan hongi''

Riddhima nodded and smiled after that riddhima did pooja of armaan, placed tilak on his forhead, saw his face from mesh while armaan did the same and after that he makes her drank the water  after that when he was about to drank the water from same louta riddhima stopped him and armaan

Ar:''kya hua shona?''

Ri:''yeh meraa jhootha hai''

Ar:''han to mai to isimeiin se peeyona aur aapna vrat tumhare jhoothe se hii kholunga shona''

Hearing him riddhima's eyes get moistened again

Ri:''armaan aapne meree liyye''

Ar:''pleasaeshona no more crying now aur please chalo naa i am starving''

He wiped her tears and riddhima quickly makes him drank water and feed him with sweets while he did the same after that both turned to go downstairs, armaan holds her from her waist while she was leaning against his chest

Ar:''riddhima tumne yeh kangan kaise pechana''

He asked while kissing the kangan

Ri:''vo shagun meiin sab green colour kaa tha kyonki anjie dii ka favourite bas iskaa box red tha mai jaanti thi yeh aapka favourite colour hai ise dekha to samajh gayyi mere liyye, tab lagta tha galat hai par aapne aap ko rok nahin paayi pehnene se''

Ar:''achaa hua pehna naa isnnee humein milvaa diyya vaise riddhima tumne ekk bat nahin bolii abhie tak''

Ri:''kya yehii kii mai aapse beintaha mohabbat karti hun, aapki bahon meiin safe mehsoos karti hun, aapke saath jeena chahti hun''

Armaan looked at her she confessed in two simple lines yet so beautifully that he feels that he falls for her all over again.

He smiled and kissed her on her forhead, both were feeling complete in each-other's arms and happy.

One year passed

There is tension on Mallik Mansion and no one knows how to solve this matter all were sitting in living room when

Ri:''mom aap samjhao inkoo jab dekho mujhe pareshan karte rehte hai''

Riddhima said angrily and kashish helped her to sit down and 

Ar:''please naa shona merii bat soono naa next year tum pakka fast rakhna''

Ri:''no armaan mai iss bar bhi rakhh rahii hun after all yeh meraa shaadi ke bad pehla karva-chauth hai''

She said folding her arms against her chest

Ar:''par shona vo tumne pichle year rakha tha naa''

Ri:''armaan u know naa how much i love this fast''

Ar:''han shona mai tumhe kabhie mna nahin karta aagar merii princess yahan aapke (points to her stomach) pas hai naa''

Yes they are married immediately after that even atull-anjali was married after them though they were engaged before. And they were deeply in love with each-other. Armaan treat her like princess after all she is his princess, All the Mallik house was filled with their love, and it is indeed a loving family. Now riddhima is 6 months pregnent and as she knows when she give armaan the news he was over the moon hearing the news. After hearing the news he took care all of needs, bearing her mood swings, satisy all her cravings, not allowing her to do any work, even kashish also called him if riddhima not eat or try to do any work and he immediately come to her and did not let her do any thing.Riddhima was really pissed off with this but she knows how much he loved her and both were so happy with the change in their life, though they fought over the gender as riddhima wants a baby boy armaan was waiting for his princess. But now the matter is he was not ready to let her keep the fast.

Ri:''no armaan mai aapki yeh bat nahin maanogi mai rakhongi fast''

And she ready to get up

Ar:''riddhima maine kahaa naa tum nahin rakhogi to nahin rakhogi tumhare ekk bar fast naa rakhne se mai mar''

But he was cut short when he feels her hand on his lips, he looked at her, her eyes filled with tears, but before armaan could say anything, she went from there and go to her room

Ka:''had hai armaan aisee bhi koi bolta hai, ooski haalat dekhi tumne, had kar dii tumne, jaante ho naa vo kitni excited hotii hai is fast ko lekar, tum''

Armaan was feeling very guilty to hurt her so he ran to their room and saw her she was looking at his picture and crying armaan slowly went towards her and sat beside her

Ar:''sorry shona''

He said in soft tone but she does not speak armaa kept pleading but she does not utter a single word, he sighed and bent on his knees and kissed her stomach and

Ar:''hey princess mumaa ko boloo naa kii papaa ko maf kar de papaa is very sorry to hurt mumma mujhe bas aapni princess aur shona kii chinta thi mai mumma ko hurt nahin karna chahta tha.''

He said while placing kisses on her belly and holds her

Ri:''baby aapne papa ko bol do kii mumma ko oonse koi bat nahin karni hai, oonhe kya lagta hai kii sirff oonko hii aapki chinta hai mujhe nahin, kuchh bhi bolte hai''

Armaan hugged her

Ar:''sorry naa riddhima mai nahin bolna chahta tha aisee par gusse meiin nikal gayya muh se''

Ri:''nahin armaan aap humesha aisee karte ho aapko aisee nahin bolna chahiye tha naa jaante hai naa aap merii zindagi hai aur fir bhi aisee bat karte hai aap''

She replied shrugging him off

Ar:''han shona but u know naa mai buddhu hun aur gusse meiin to tum jaante ho naa mai control nahin kar paata aapne aap par aur shona bas mujhe tumhari aur princess kii chinta thi''

He said while cupping her face in his palms

Ri:''i know armaan jaanti hun aap mujhe aur humare baby se bahut pyaar karte hai par armaan mujhe bhi humare baby kii chinta hai naa i promise mai aapko aapka baby bilkul sahii-salamat doongi''

She said holding his hands

Ar:''mujhe pta hai shona tabhie to maine bolaa naa kii tum yeh fast mat rakho kaise rahoge aap poora din bhookhe-pyaase aapko medicines bhi khani hai naa''

He replied kissing her hands

Ri:''armaan please trust me naa kuchh nahin hogaa sab log rakhte hai aur mujhe bhi rakhna hai please armaan merii yeh bat man lijiye aapse kabhie kuchh nahin mangogi mai please armaan mujhe aapke liyye rakhna hai''

She said making a cute puppy face and armaan knows he has to agree now but he was still unsure

Ar:''theek hai riddhima rakhh lo par tumhe aagar thodi sii bhi problem hui to''

Ri:''nahin armaan kuchh nahin hogaa aap mujhe kuchh honee nahin dogee aur humara baby bhi hai aab to''

She said while hugging him and armaan hugged her back 

Ar:''bahut jiddi ho jaanti ho kaise aapni bat manvani hai''

She giggled hearing this and

Ri:''i love u armaan''

Ar:''love u too my princess's mother''

And he peck her lips.

Next day riddhima keeps the fast for armaan with lots of instruction, lots of care, she has to eat almost double the sargi in morning as he was saying she has to eat for their princess.Finally when she said she will throw up only then he leaves. The whole day armaan took extra care of her, he even took off from the office. With their love day went smoothly.

In night when armaan opened her fast after watching moon

Ar:''lijiye madam jaldi se paani pijiye merii princess ko pyaas lagi hogii''

She drank the water and when she offered him to drank the water

Ar:''shona mai''

But she quitened him saying

Ri:''princess ke papa ko bhi pyaas lagii hogii oonka bhi fast hai naa''

Armaan smiled and drank.

This is the beauty of their relationship they know each-other in and out, they knew each-other so well that they did not need to expalin each-other things and  they are deeply in love with each-other.

After 3 months riddhima gave birth to armaan's princess that too on his birthday, for armaan it was the beautiful and best gift that he could ever desired.

Ar:''so shona maine kahaa tha naa merii princess hii aayegi merii Ariha''

He said while placing a kiss on her forhead holding their baby 

Ri:''han so Mr.Mallik i give u a gift on ur birthday now my return gift''

She asked while holding their daughter and kissing her softly

Ar:''riddhima tumne mujhe jo diyya hai ooska koi return gift nahin ho sakta shona i love u riddhima''

He said and pecked her lips.

4 years passed and now Ariha was 4 years old and it was riddhima's birthday but no celebration as she was admitted in hospital, yes she was again pregnat and now was in labour room.

After sometime armaan and ariha go inside to met riddhima, armaan was holding new born baby in his arms while ariha was holding his one hand and riddhima was lying on bed whole exhausted but her face was looking beautiful with happiness armaan slowly kissed her on her forhead and whispered

Ar:''congrats shona tumhara riddhan aaa hii gayya''

And riddhima holds the baby in her arms kissed him lovingly

Ri:''thanks armaan merii zindagi poori karne ko''

Ar:''thanks to u too mere sapne poore karne ko aur merii zindagi meiin aanee ko''

Ri:''mujhe to aanaa hii tha yahan armaan after all I Belong To Here Only In Ur Arms''

Ar:''i love u''

Ri:''love u too''

And they hugged each-other, this was the complete family and after that they lived happily ever after.

Finally Riddhima finds the place where she actually belong that's her Armaan's heart, his arms where she feels secure from ahole of the world and armaan finds his happiness which was lying with her.
