Stranger: shut up he said as he placed his hand on her top

Avni: no...noooooooooooo she said screaming as she had her eyes closed  feeling her top been pulled

Suddenly avni opened her eyes feeling that guy shout in pain as she felt him been moved of her..

As avni sat up she saw neil standing there angrily...she saw how neil beat the person black and blue while she recalled what was going to happen with her

Neil:when she said leave means leave dont u understand that he said with a rage as he beat that man up

Few mins later avni felt herself been shaked and called out as she came out of her trance to see neil sitting beside her looking at her concernly

Avni looked at neil while her eyes slowly started to fill up with the news she received and then  her life was about to be ruined that scared her which neil noticed as the fear was clearly visible on her face

Neil: it's ok u r safe now dont worry he said as he  squeezed her hands

Not able to control her emotions anymore avni started crying as she placed her head on his chest crying herself out while neil wrapped his hands around her as he rubbed her back feeling her shaking so badly in his arms...he gulped the lump which had formed in his throat as he stayed still ...allowing avni to cry her heart out

The person ran away limping while neil saw him go but he had made sure to take his picture making sure to send it to the police later...if he wanted he could have caught that person but at the moment avni was  important

It had been 10 mins since avneil stayed like that

Avni: I'm sorry neil...I'm sorry...today I actually realised what juhi must have felt like and that relief she must have felt when u reached there and saved her from any more mishaps happening she said still been in his arms while her eyes welled up.

Neil broke the hug and looked at her

Neil:u ok now? He asked.

Avni smiled but the smile was painful

Avni: I dont know...I actually dont know...life is so cruel na...

Neil:life may be cruel but u just have to find a way to deal with it and find happiness he said

Avni looked at him while neil took a step to move forward

Avni: neil she said calling him out while he turned around

Avni: u truly r a life saviour... I dont know If that day will come if u will ever forgive me or not but I hope u do...but please dont tell anyone what happened over here I dont want them to worry

Neil didnt answer as he just stared at avni while she took a step to walk ahead

Neil :I wouldnt be talking to u if I hadnt forgiven u he said

Avni stopped in her tracks and after few secs she turned around

Avni: u...u forgive me ? She asked to make sure if she heard it right

Neil:haan he said slowly smiling

Avni: neil...neil u dont know how I'm feeling hearing this ...its like I'm in peace now after knowing u have no grudges towards me .

Neil went near her

Neil: now u know na so no more tears he said smiling making her chukle as he wiped a tear that rolled down her cheek

Avni: I'm actually thankful ...if u hadnt come then

Neil: I'm glad I came on time avni...u dont worry about him I'll make sure he goes behind the bars

Avni nooded

Neil:- come let's go now

Avni:- neil can we stay here for a bit

Neil:I'll inform all as they must be waitong

Avni nodded while Neil told them where he and avni r and said they will come back soon

Avneil then walked a little further down and sat down next to each other leaving a small gap while leaning against the tree

Avni: neil

Neil:hmm

Avni: how comes u forgived me?

Neil : maybe my ego broke seen that guy troubling u and I started to understand from your point of view

Avni nodded

For few mins both were silent

Neil:- what r u thinking about he said looking at her..avni looked at Neil and then sighed 

avni: neil I don't know how things will be I dont know if I'm happy or sad hearing about...about raj been no more... we were in a relation since so long....everything was perfectly fine ...or maybe I thought things were fine... the guy who I loved...who i had dreamed of marrying...who I called the prince actually turned out to be the villian...here I blamed u  for juhi condition when it was someone who i trusted with my eyes closed ...u was right neil...if juhi hadnt come out of coma I...i somewhere would still be blaming u..My blindness and anger overpowered me that time where I didnt think and just accused u on half information not realising that it ruined your life tooo she said looking down

Neil looked at avni as she spoke.

Neil:avni situation was such that u accused me in that way because juhi was your friend who u had known more than me...and in uni my reputation was a play boy so with your half information u had anyone would doubt... but yes  I know u was hurt and broke seen juhi condition like this but somewhere I felt that at least if u had thought from your mind... u accusing me wasnt right but at that time u was thinking as friend too...when I saw u after so many years I felt anger and hatred for u...then when my parents asked for your hand i couldnt stop my anger which overpowered my heart and I got the revenge mode in my head which was u ruining my life with your allegation hence I would ruin your life by marrying u and torturing u...but something would always happens where my heart wouldn't allow me to do that but again your allegation would ring in my ears which made me behave coldly with u....even when juhi had told the truth about raj been behind all this... I wanted to console u seen u in that state but my ego issue naa avni...we men sometimes get too much ego issues...your words always told me how guilty u was but everytime it would remind me of how insulted I had felt... today seen that guy misbehaving with u I couldnt allow it avni... I realised that I was angry but not that angry where I cant forgive u...if u can say sorry despite all the allegation and admit your mistake then even I can forgive u and say sorry tooo he said as he had his back rested against the tree

Avni: y r u saying sorry neil

Neil:for not treating u in the right way...for misbehaving with u ...for trying to take revenge from u by ruining your life...avni honestly seen u on that state i realised I was wrong to behave in such way to u... it made me realise how as a friend u had behaved that way even though I still believe that u shouldn't accuse anyone without full proof... about about raj then his truth had to come out in front of everyone especially u and maybe it was meant in destiny that juhi reveals the truth...he tried to ruin so many lifes but who knew that while trying to ruin so many life he would lose his life

Avni tilt her head up as she controlled her tears ..neil squeezed her shoulder

Avni: i dont know y I fell for him neil..for his words...he still claimed to love me and wanted me to give him a chance after his truth was out ...he had no shame  no shame at all...not even a guilt on his face

Neil: can I ask u something?

Avni: hmm she said looking at him

Neil:- if..if he did have some shame or guilt for what he did would u have forgiven him and given him a chance...neil somewhere felt the answer would be no but he still wanted to hear it

Avni: my heart would have been split into two neil...half would say yes and the other half would say no...and just becusse I was in a relation with him or I loved him doesnt mean I would forgive and forget... what he did was wrong and I wouldnt forgive him at all and neither would I have let him get away.

Neil:and u kept your words he said smiling

Avni smiled back at Neil slowly

Avni: yet my heart still remeberes all those good times and cries she said as the smile lessened from her face.

Neil:- it hurts na

Avni: very much. But then there is no point of thinking about such people... it will take time but I know I will get over it. ...let's not talk about raj now thinking about him just would just make me more emotional and hurt she said

Neil noooddd both sat in silence for few mins as they looked ahead

Neil: avni....I guess we should tell our family that we dont want to get married... I had said yes in anger and also had replied back on your behalf too which was not right ...and I have no rights to spoil your life by making u stay in such relation

Avni: neil on one side I dont want to get married and on the other side I dont want to disappoint our family

Neil:thinking about family is good and family is also  but that doesnt mean u sacrifice your own life or happiness for family becuase at the end if the day it's your life

Avni was about to reply when

Vidyut: omg r we dreaming... u two sitting here together he said shocked but also said it in a dramatic way..

Avneil stood up

Juhi: this means all is good between u two ?

Avneil smiled and nodded while juhi was happy and hugged both of them

Mithali: how did this miracle happen by the way?

Avneil looked at each other...neil wasnt going to tell about the incident as avni didnt want anyone to worry

Neil: when we got to know about raj death I felt sorry for avni... and as i came for a walk i saw her sitting here alone and crying hence my ego broke and I decided to mend things with her

Vidyut: proud of u my boy he said.

Juhi: ok so since we found  u two now can we please do something productive we kept ali and Riya waiting at the palace somehow 

Vidyut:- haan I agree
