Back in Delhi,

Armaan sat on the bed waiting for her. There were a few pictures of Riddhima and Anjali in the cupboard drawers. He took them out and started looking at them.

There were a few funny pictures among them. He kept smiling looking at those. He kept moving his fingers on Riddhima's pictures and smiled. He sometimes moved his fingers on her smile, her lips as if they were real.

Ri- (KNOCK KNOCK)

Ar- Come in

Ri- Hey...what did you want to show me?

Ar- Sit down first...

Ri- Yeah. These pictures? Where did you find those?

Ar- Uh...just I was seeing through a few drawers and found these

She looked so excited when she looked at the pictures. She started talking to him about the pictures.

Ri- This was the first day of my high school. I was nervous. And here, see Di and I went to a picnic with Papa and others. I remember I had a lot of fun on that day

Armaan kept looking at her face when she turned and saw him,

Ri- Why are you looking like that?

Ar- It's just...I saw you smiling like this with me for the first time

Ri- Oh!!! Um...yeah. Anyways, what did you want to show me?

Ar- You were missing Anjali right? These are a few pics of hers when we were in college

Ri- Oh, show me

Ar- See

They went through many pictures of Anjali and her friends including Armaan

Ri- Is that you?

Ar- Yeah why?

Ri- [Laughs loudly]...seriously you became a vampire on the festival in your 1st year

Ar- Hey all the girls were drooling over me already

Ri- Yeah right!!! That's what I remember when I was in the college with you

Suddenly she turned silent and Armaan understood why. All the memories became fresh again when she said that.

Ar- Riddhima...look at me...please

She looks at him. He takes her hand in his hand, but this time, she didn't try to pull away from him.

Ar- Riddhima, I know I have made mistakes in the past. I know I have hurt your feelings thinking that it won't matter. But Riddhima, can you not give me a second chance? Just one chance to show that I'm no more the KIDDISH and FLIRT Armaan. Just one chance to show you that this Armaan in front of you is the Armaan who loves you unconditionally

Riddhima started thinking.

Ar- Riddhima, can you trust me for just this one time? Please...can you give me this chance

Ri- Armaan, I...can we start all over again?

Armaan was surprised when she said that. His happiness had no limits. He couldn't believe his ears

Ar- Riddhima...are you serious?

are you serious?
