It's been almost one hour since Armaan was waiting outside sitting on the bench. Nurse was appointed to check and have a look on Abhira.
Suddenly, Abhira started moving her fingers and slowly opened her eyes. She closed them again, feeling the brightness of the lights. Blinking often, she finally opened her eyes fully, adjusting to the light in the room.
The nurse noticed Abhira moving and opening her eyes, so she went closer to check on her. Seeing Abhira's response, the nurse quickly called the doctor for further examination and assistance. The doctor arrived promptly to assess Abhira's condition and provide necessary care and treatment.
"Mrs. Poddar, how are you feeling now?" The doctor asked with a smile.
"I am fin....fine doctor." She said.
"That's really nice Mrs. Poddar. Kahi dard toh nahi ho raha na aapko? He asked gently.
"Nahi doctor, am really fine." She said.
"Theek hai. Aapke husband bahar wait kar rahe hai. Mai unhe andar bhejta hu." The doctor said.
She looked at him and realised Armaan was there too.
"Umm.....nahi nahi doctor. Mai abhi kisi se nahi milna chahti. Aap please unhe andar mat bhejiye." She said in panicking tine.
"Par, Mrs. Poddar, Mr. Poddar kabse aapke theek hone ka intezaar kar rahe. He is getting restless to meet you." He said.
"Please try to understand d... doctor. I want to be alone right now. Mai kisi se bhi nahi milne ch...chati hu abhi." She stammered while looking at the doctor.
"Okay. Fine. As you say Mrs. Poddar." He said and left from there.
As soon as he came out, Armaan rushed towards him.
"Doctor, Abhira kaisi hai? Kya hua hai use?" Armaan asked.
"Woh thodi weak hai, par abhi theek hai. Abhi unko thoda waqt chahiye akele rehne ke liye." Doctor said
"Par main use milna chahta hu, uski halat kaisi hai, mujhe pata karna hai." Armaan said
"Mrs. Poddar ne kaha hai ki woh abhi aapse yaa kisi aur se milna nahi chahti. Unko akele rehne do thoda waqt." Doctor said making him shock.
"Par main us....uske liye yahan ho....hoon, usko sa...samjha dijiye please." Armaan stammered.
"Main unko aapka message pahuncha dunga, par abhi unko aram karne do." Doctor said
"Theek hai, main bahar wait karunga. Kuch zarurat ho toh mujhe bataiye. Armaan said
"Zarur, main aapko update karta rahunga. Ab aap bahar jakar thoda aram kijiye." Doctor said and went from there.
Armaan sat down on the bench with this as tears flow down his cheeks. He kept his palm on his mouth to control his sobs.
"Abh...Abhira mujhse mil...milna nahi chahti hai. Kyu? K...kyu tum mujhe dekh...dekhna nahi chahti? "Main yahan hoon, Abhira. Tumhare saath, tumhari har mushkil mein. Par tum... tum mujhse door kyun ho jaati ho? Tumne mera saath diya jab main akela tha, Abhira. Jab muj...mujhe tumhari jarurat thi tab t...tum mere saath rahi. Meri family ke liye itna sab kiya. Meri maa ke liye uss Yuvraj se shaadi ke liye taiyaar ho gayi. Tumne mujhe samjha aur samjhaaya. Aur ab... ab tum mujhse baa...baat bhi nahi karna chahti. Mujhse mi...milna bhi nahi chahti. Esa kyu abhira. Esa kyu? Main janta hoon ki tumhe apna waqt chahiye, lekin mujhe bhi toh pata chalna chahiye ki tum theek ho. Main tumhara dard baantna chahta hoon, Abhira." He cried looking at the door.
His gaze remained fixed on the door, longing for a glimpse of Abhira, a sign that she was okay. But all he was met with was silence, leaving him to grapple with his own fears and uncertainties.
Meanwhile, in another scene, Abhira lay on the hospital bed, her eyes closed as she battled with her own inner turmoil. Memories of their past interactions, their cute fights, and ther some cute yet unknowingly romantic moments flooded her mind, mingling with the pain of her present situation.
"Armaan," she whispered softly, her voice barely audible in the stillness of the room.
"Armaan," she whispered again, her voice barely audible as tears welled up in her eyes. "I'm sorry..."
"I never meant to hurt you," she murmured, "I never wanted things to end up like this..."
"Mai jaanti hu hum...humari shaadi sirf ek deal hai. Aur yeh deal kuch hi mahino mein khatam hone wali hai. Par ma....mai ab aur tum...tumhare saath nahi reh sa...sakti. Nahi reh sakti ek ese insaan ke saath ji ..jisne kabhi mujhe support naa kiya ho. Nahi reh sakti u....us family ke saath jiska mujh...mujhe kabhi pyaar nah...nahi mila. Nahi reh sa...sakti us family ke saa...saath jisne mujhe humesha taane di...diye ho. Bhale hi tumhari family itni badi hai par mai humesha itni badi family ke saath reh kar bhi akela mehsus karti hu khud ko. Koi mera apna nahi hai. Koi mera nahi hai jo mujhe support kar aake. Har baar har cheez ka blame mujh par daal Diya jaata hai. Nahi reh sakti tumhare saath jise apni wife se jyada apni friend ko support karn....karna pasand ho. Haa, mai jaanti hu hum...humare beech pati pa...patni wala ris...rishta nahi hai, aur naahi hu...humari shaadi real wali shaadi hai par tum...tumne meri mumma ko diya hua p...pro... promise yod diya hai Armaan. Aur ab mai tu...tumhare saath nah...nahi rehna chahti. Mere Dil me...mein tumhare feel... feelings aur badhe usse pehle tumhe ch....chod kar chali jaaungi. Bas...bas ek baar ma...mai yeh case jee...jeet jaau. Phir hu... humesha humesha ke liye tumse, tumhari zinda... zindagi se aur tumhari family se dur chali jaaungi." Abhira said to herself with tears flowing down her eyes.
She looked at the door hoping to get a glance of Armaan but couldn't. She cried and cried before closing her eyes due to medications.
✨
Ruhi sat on her bed, her mind swirling with worry. She couldn't shake the words of Armaan's worry for Abhira.
"Aga...agar Armaan ko Ab..Abhira se pyaa....pyaar ho gaya toh?" she whispered to herself.
"Agar voh mujhe bh...bhul gaya aur Abhira ke saath chala gaya toh?"
The thought sent a shiver down her spine, and she clutched her hands tightly together.
"Nahi, mai Armaan ko nahi kho sakti." she thought, her heart pounding with fear. "Mai Abhira ko ese Armaan ko mujhse chenane nahi dungi."
Tears welled up in her eyes as she imagined a future without Armaan by her side.
"Mujhe kuch karna padega." she resolved, determination flaring in her gaze.
"Mai Abhira ko mere aur Armaan ke beech nahi aane dungi. Mai mere aur Armaan ke pyaar ke liye ladung. Chahe jo ho jaaye mai Armaan ko Abhira se dur karke rahungi." Ruhi said wiping her tears angrily
"Mai tumhe humare pyaar ko ese bhulne nahi doongi, Armaan. Tumhari aur Abhira ki shaadi sirf deal hai. Aur mai us ek deal ke liye tumhe nahi kho sakti. Ek saal baad yeh deal khatam hote hi Abhira Armaan ko chod kar chali jaaegi. Armaan ke liye Rohit se shaadi ki hai maine. Taaki tumhare kareeb reh saku. Apni kurbaani mein waste nahi jaane dungi Armaan." She said with utmost determination.
"Armaan, tum mere liye sab kuch ho," Ruhi whispered to herself, her voice trembling with emotion. "Maine tumhe chhodne ki taiyaari nahi karungi. Tumhe samjhana hoga ki tum Abhira ke liye nahi ho, tum mere ho."
With a deep breath, she wiped away her tears and composed herself. "Main tumhe apne pyaar ka ehsaas dilana chahungi, Armaan," she vowed softly,
"Tumhe yakeen dilana hoga ki humara rishta khaas hai, aur kisi aur ko humare beech nahi aane dungi."
She said to herself with a firm determination unknown to the fact that someone had listened to her. It was Manisha who was standing outside Ruhi's room hiding herself behind the door listening to Ruhi's talks to herself.
She looked all shocked and immediately went to her room. She closed the door and sat down on her bed.
"Mera shak sahi nikla. Yeh Armaan aur Ruhi ke beech mein kuch toh hai. Dono pyaar karte hai ek dusre se. Aur Abhira aur Armaan ki shaadi sirf ek deal hai. Matlab Armaan aur Ruhi shaadi se pehle hi ek dusre se mile the. Aur Ruhi ne Rohit se shaadi sirf Armaan ke kareeb rehne ke liye ki hai. Ruhi, Rohit ko dhokha de Rahi hai. Ruhi ne Rohit se shaadi Armaan ke liye ki hai? Yeh toh galat hai. Rohit ko dhoka dekar Ruhi ne kya socha? Aur Abhira ko kya pata hai is sab ke baare mein? Ab tak in dono ko itne kareeb dekh kar mujhe toh sirf shak tha. Dono apne rishte ko dosti ke peeche chipa rahe the. Isiliye Ruhi ko Armaan ki itni fikar hoti thi. Aur Armaan bhi humesha Ruhi ko support karta tha. Bichari Abhira, aaj patah chal raha hai ki Abhira sach mein bohot akeli hai is Ghar mein. Itna bada parivaar hai lekin uska apna koi nahi hai is parivaar mein. Aur Rohit bhi chala gaya tha Ghar chod kar. Varna Rohit, jo Armaan se itna pyaar karta hai. Humesha uski izzat karta hai voh bhala Armaan pe haath kaise utha sakta hai." She said to herself and paused for a second.
Her eyes widened as she understood everything behind Rohit leaving Poddar House, "Ek minute, ek minute, matlab Rohit ko pata chal gaya tha ki Ruhi aur Armaan ek dusre se pyaar karte hai. Isiliye voh Ghar chod kar chala gaya."
She remembered about Rohit's death and tears filled up her eyes.
"Itna bada dhokha diya Ruhi aur Armaan ne. Ruhi toh phir bhi parayi thi par Armaan, Armaan toh uska Bhai tha na. Toh phir usne esa kyu kiya." She cried to herself.
"Ruhi ne Rohit ko itna bada dhoka diya hai, par kya Rohit ko sach mein pata tha ki Ruhi aur Armaan ek dusre se pyaar karte hai? Shayad haan, warna voh itni badi baat par Ghar chod kar nahi jaata. Par phir bhi, Ruhi ne Rohit ke saath shaadi ki thi, usne uska vishwaas toda. Aur Abhira ko kya pata hai is sab ke baare mein? Kya voh jaanti hai ki Armaan aur Ruhi ek dusre se pyaar karte hai? Agar nahi jaanti toh yeh sachai uske liye bahut bada jhatka hoga." She said and stood up from the bed
"Agar Abhira ko pata chala ki Armaan aur Ruhi ek dusre se pyaar karte hai, toh kya voh phir bhi unke saath rehna chahegi? Aur kya Armaan Abhira se pyaar karta hai ya bas uske liye responsibility feel karta hai? Kya sach mein ek saal baad Abhira, Armaan aur is Ghar ko chod kar chali jaaegi? Aur agar yeh sach hai ki Armaan aur Ruhi ek dusre se pyaar karte hai, toh kya sach mein Abhira, Armaan aur yeh Ghar chod kar chali jayegi? Yeh toh sirf waqt hi bata sakega. Par mujhe lagta hai ki har koi apni khushi ke liye faisla karta hai. Shayad Abhira bhi apne liye sahi faisla karegi, chahe woh phir se yeh Ghar chhodna pade ya kuch aur." She said to herself pacing back and forth in the room.
"Maine bhi kai baar Abhira ke saath kitna bura bartav kiya hai. Jab ki kabhi bhi uski galati thi hi nahi. Main usse samjha nahi paayi, uski feelings ko nahi samjha. Main uski jagah par khadi hoti toh shayad main bhi waisa hi feel karti. Main usse support karne ki jagah use taane diya aur usse baat nahi ki. Abhira, ho sake toh apni Chachi-sa ko maaf kar dena beta." Manisha said and cried a little.

It was already night time. But Armaan was still sitting in the hospital waiting for Abhira to call him and let him meet her. But Abhira was sleeping peacefully in the hospital room. She didn't knew that Armaan was waiting for her.
Meanwhile, Armaan's phone rang. He took it out from his pocket and looked at the caller ID. It was Vidya. He picked up the call.
"Haa boliye Maa-sa." He said
"Kaha hai tu Armaan? Aur Abhira tere saath hai kya? Voh bhi abhi tak ghar nahi aayi hai. Mujhe chinta ho rahi hai uski beta." Vidya said in a worried tone.
"M...Maa-sa.... abh.....Abhira, voh Abhira ka acc....." He couldn't speak as his voice was trembling due to him crying.
"Kya hua hai Abhira ko? Voh theek toh hai na? Aur kaha hai vo? Tumhare saath hai ky?" Vidya asked as she panicked.
"Maa-sa, v...vo Abh....Abhira ka accid.... accident ho ga...gaya hai." Armaan said with trembling voice and his hands shaking due to fear.
"Kya?" Vidya asked as she kept her palm on her mouth.
"Kab? Kaise? Aur kaisi hai voh abhi?" She asked as her own eyes started filling up with tears.
"Abh...abhi toh theek hai voh. Doctors ne treatment k...kar diya hai. And they said she is fine now." Armaan said.
"Ma....mai abhi hospital aati hu." She said.
"Na...nahi nahi Maa-sa rukiye." Before he could say anything further, she had cut the call.
"Agar Maa-sa yaha aa gayi aur un...unhe pata chala ki Abh....Abhira kisi se nahi milna chah....chahti toh voh toh toot jaaye....jaayegi." Armaan said to himself looking at the phone.
He glanced at the door, "Please Abhira, Maa-sa ko milne do apne aap se. Meri galtiyo ki saza unhe mat do Abhira. She cares for you. She is worried for you Abhira. Let her meet you. Please."
Suddenly he heard falling of something from inside the room. He quickly rushed in without caring about Abhira doesn't want to meet him.
As soon as he reached in, he got shocked seeing Abhira trying to take glass from the table but was unable to do so as her hands were having the glucose and other drips.
He rushed towards her and she looked at him in shock.
"Tu...tum, tum an...andar kyu aaye? Mai...maine mana kiya tha na ki m...mu...mujhe kisi se bhi nahi milna hai. Toh tum an... andar kyu aaye?" She asked but did not got any reply from him.
He took the water glass from the table and forwarded towards her. She turned her face away.
"Abhira pl...please paani pilo." He said moving the glass towards her lips.
"Armaan, please mujhe akela chhod do. Tumhe yahan nahi hona chahiye." Abhira pleaded, trying to push him away gently.
"Main tumhe akela nahi chhod sakta, Abhira. Tumhe zarurat hai meri, aur main yahan hoon tumhare liye." Armaan insisted.
"Par maine kaha na, mujhe kisi se milna nahi hai. Tum bhi chale jao yahan se." Abhira insisted with trembling voice.
"I can't leave you alone, Abhira. Tumhari halat dekhi hai? Tumhe meri zarurat hai." Armaan said softly, gently holding her hand.
"Please, Armaan. Just leave me alone." Abhira pleaded again, tears welling up in her eyes.
"I can't, Abhira. Tum meri wife ho, meri responsibility hai tumhari care karna." Armaan said firmly.
"Par yeh sab fake hai, Armaan. Tumhari care bhi fake hai. Mujhe tum...tumhari koi jarurat nahi hai. Tumhara mu...mujh pe ko...koi hak nahi hai. I hope tumhe yaad ho....hoga ki humari shaa...shaadi sirf ek de...deal hai." Abhira whispered, her voice breaking with emotion.
"I know humari shaadi sirf ek deal hai. Par eri care fake nahi hai. I really care for you." Armaan said
"Please, Armaan. Just go." Abhira said weakly.
"I won't leave you, Abhira. Not now, not ever." Armaan vowed, gently wiping away her tears before sitting beside her.
"Tum mere sach much ke pati nahi ho jo meri itni care kar rahe ho. Meri care aur mujhe support dene ke liye doctors hai. Mujhe tumhari jarurat nahi hai." Abhira said not looking at him.
"Main yahan hoon kyunki mujhe fikar hai tumhari." Armaan insisted.
"Par main yeh sab nahi chahti, Armaan. Tumhare saath rehna nahi chahti." Abhira said softly.
"Main jaanta hoon humari shaadi sirf deal se hui hai. Aur yeh deal kuch mahino mein khatam ho jaayegi lekin in mahino mein mai tumhari care karna toh nahi chod sakta na." Armaan said
"You know what Mr. Armaan Poddar. Bas ek baar, ek baar yeh tumhare kuch mahine khatam ho jaaye uske baad mujhe aur meri zindagi ko shaanti milegi. Jab mai tumse door chali jaaungi tab mujhe aacha lagega. Intact tumhe bhi accha lagega. Atleast tumhe yeh jhooth mooth ki fikar toh nahi karni padegi meri." Abhira said with red teary eyes.
"Main bas yeh kehna chahta hoon ki meri care sachchi hai, Abhira. Tumhari khushi mere liye important hai, chahe yeh deal khatam ho ya na ho." Armaan said earnestly.
"Par mujhe tumhari care ki zarurat nahi hai, Armaan. Aur yeh deal khatam hone ke baad mujhe apni zindagi apne tareeke se jeene ka mauka milega. Tum mere liye kuch nahi ho, sirf ek farz hai." Abhira said, her words laced with bitterness and hurt.
"Main chahti hoon ki tum meri zindagi se door chale jao, Armaan. Tum mere liye kuch nahi ho." Abhira whispered.
Before Armaan could say anything further, the door swung open showing Vidya entering while crying.
Vidya entered the room, tears streaming down her face. She rushed to Abhira's side, embracing her tightly.
"Abhira b..beta, tum theek ho? Mu...mujjhe itni ch..chinta ho rahi thi." Vidya said, her voice choked with emotion.
Armaan stood up, feeling a mix of guilt and concern. He stepped back, giving them some space.
"Maa-sa, main theek hoon." Abhira said softly.
Vidya pulled back, cupping Abhira's face in her hands. "Tumne mujhe dara diya tha, beta. Kya hua tha tumhe? Armaan ne kuch kaha?"
"Nahi Maa-sa, esi koi baat nahi hai. Bas thodi si chot lag gayi thi. Ab main theek hoon." Abhira said.
Vidya looked at Armaan, her eyes filled with concern. "Armaan, tumne Abhira ko akele kyun chhoda? Tum theek ho na?"
Armaan nodded, his throat tight with emotion. "Main theek hoon, Maa-sa. Abhira ko chot lag gayi thi, isliye main yahan tha."
Vidya sighed, wiping away her tears. "Chalo, ab ghar chalein. Tumhe araam ki zarurat hai, Abhira beta."
"Mai....mai discharge ke papers rea...ready karwata hu." Armaan said and left glancing at Abhira.
