FLASHBACK ENDS

ALI and AVNI are on Avni's balcony. Ali takes Avni's hand in his hand. 

ALI: Before telling you the answer, I wanna tell u something big. The reason why I walk away yesterday. (takes a deep breath) I'm a cancer patient. I'm not busy with my work. I'm not with my mom. I'm in the hospital. I'm taking chemotherapy. This is the reason why I walk away, yesterday.

AVNI:(Avni listening to everything silently and tears are flowing from her eyes continuously) I have a lot of contacts, I will talk to my dad. (while saying these lines she stands up to pick her phone).

ALI: Avni, listen(push her back to her chair)

AVNI: No Ali, it can be cured. I read a lot of articles. I will save you whatever it takes.

ALI: Avni, I have left few days. I talk to the doctor he said I don't have much time.

AVNI: Ali, u don't understand.

ALI: Avni, don't behave like a child. Try to understand.

AVNI: Don't go plz(starts crying)

Immediately Ali hug her 

ALI: Avni, I don't have any other way.

AVNI: Don't leave me plzzz........(Breaks the hug)

ALI: I'm not leaving u Avni. I will always stay here. (pointing towards her heart) If u miss me just keep ur hand here(pointing towards the heart) and tell me whatever u wanna say. I will listen to u.
