UNBREAKABLE STRINGS

Closure

"Shayad, shayad tum sahi ho Abhira, shayad haan, I need it, I need a closure, I do need to move ahead", she finally said it, dil se, without any fear, without letting her pain win.

Abhira was on cloud nine. "Rea-really?? You're sure na?? You wan- want to...?"
"Haan Abhira, abb starting se start karte hain, bahut ho gaya hai yeh ladai jhagda abb, tum apni life mein aage badho main apni mein, main bhi gussa nai karungi", Ruhi said, holding Abhira's hand.
"Gussa nai hoga toh pyaar hi bachega na", Abhira said, continuously crying from happiness.
"Yes, Abhira, dekho main Akshara maasi se waapis kabhi uss tarah pyaar toh nahi kar sakti, apni poori family ko khona nahi bhool sakti, lekin I, I need a closure Abhira, and I don't think ki aaj ke dinn tumhaare saath, tumhaari mumma ke noodle cake ke saath unka birthday celebrate karne se better there is any closure I can have. So...can I??"
"Tum- tum pagal ho kya Ruhiiii, you don't need to ask me, ofcourse, it's your right, Ruhiiii, I-" and she jumped on her to hug her out of excitement and happiness.

Armaan and Rohit on the other hand, had been emotional, crying without limits, consoling each other were now star stuck on watching their wives reconcile. They could now literally fight the whole world to protect these sisters and their bond. They were definitely proud of their girls for being so strong and so good.

"Mujhe maaf karde yaar, Rohit, pehle fake promises and then Abhira ke liye defensive hoke, I often said many things to Ruhi, I can't even imagine all the pain she went through, I don't think anyone has ever hurt her more than me in this house", said Armaan, dripping guilt from his eyes.
"Bhaiya, c'mon, we have settled that matter, even I am sorry, Ruhi ke liye protective hoke, to support her, even I went against Bhabhi, she has suffered no less. Par dekhne wali baat yeh hai ki yeh dono sisters ki ladai bhi itni strong thi that it even started a fight among us brothers", Rohit said laughingly. Armaan laughed and said, "Tu aur tere jokes, sab theek kardete hain", and they hugged.

As Abhira went to mould the noodles into a cake, Ruhi teasingly yelled, "Waise abhi humari baat khatam ho gayi hai toh jo do nautankis humari baat chhup kar sunn rahe hain woh andar aa sakte hain, kyun Abhira?"
"Aur kya, Ruhi, unse kahin zyada der lagai aur humein aadat pad gayi toh aane wali saari raatein husband wife nai sister sister saath mein soyengi", said Abhira with a laugh.
Armaan and Rohit rushed into the kitchen saying, "Nahi woh hum to-" "Ruhi tum meri wif-" "Abhira mai-", and the sisters let out a huge laugh after an eternity or so, and the brothers prayed for it to be always there.

"Tum dono ko apne parents se baat karni hai na? Dekho stars dikh rahe hain, jaldi aa jao subah hone wali haii", said Armaan.
Abhira and Ruhi looked each other and then took the cake they had made secretly to the terrace, followed by their husbands. Abhira had already made arrangements on the terrace, fairy lights, pictures of Akshara with her daughter, her family. Abhira started to cry again while Ruhi's heart a skipped a beat too, getting nostalgic. She held Abhira's hand, smiled and took her forward. She felt touched by the gesture, while the brothers too smiled. Abhira placed the cake on the table and lit the candle.

All four of them watched over to the sky and stopped when they found the four most shining stars.

"Ruhi ki maatashree, papa, I am sure aap hi hain woh jinki wajah se my Ruhi is so strong to endure so much but still give love. She loves you so much and I wish aap humesha hum dono ko bless karte rahe, I promise I will always support your daughter, I'll protect her, love her, be with her, humesha. Aap dono jitna toh nahi, par hum dono ke rishte ko bhi bahut pyaara aur khaas, zarur banaaunga main.
Bhabhi ki mumma papa, aapki wajah se aaj mere bhai bhabhi saath hain, khush hain, thankyou. Ruhi ke support mein, main aapke against gaya, I am sorry for that, but now I know ki Ruhi ke maasa maasi loved her so much, and so do I, and I will always do, aur Bhabhi ka bhi bahut dhyaan rakhunga", said Rohit, praying to them.
