Manvi's POV

It was 3 pm, I was in the meeting. My phone kept on ringing and I was declining it. I halted the meeting and picked up the call "kya hai Khushi? Main meeting mein hun"

She then said "mumma jaldi ghar aao.."

I was tense "kya hua?"

"Aap bas ghar aao.." she said and ended the call.

I glanced at everyone and informed them "meeting hum kal continue karenge.. I have to leave" I moved out of the office immediately.

I reached the house in half an hour. The main door was opened, I entered the hall and was shocked seeing Aarav along with Ahana, Virat and his father Sameer.

Ahana looked at Ruhana and said "I am really sorry uss din maine bahut insult ki aap logo ki.. Gusse mein bahut kuch kah diya"

"Sorry? Tumhare ek sorry kehne se kya sab thik ho jayega Ahana? Tumne meri behen pe ilzam lagaye infact Khushi ko bhi blame kiya tumne" Ruhana said sternly.

Ahana spoke "dekhiye maanti hun main it was not right par jaise aapko waqt laga inka rishta accept karne mein waise hi humhe bhi laga.. Bas farak itna hai mujhe kuch zyada samay laga Manvi ko samajhne mein" she eyed at me.

I was surprised hearing her. I glanced at Aarav, who was smiling at me.

"Lekin ab main nahi chahti Aarav aur Manvi ek ho" Ruhana declared.

Ahana tried to convince her "please.. 6 mahine pehle ye dono alag hue meri wajah se already bahut suffer kar chuke hai main janti hun ache se na Manvi Aarav ke bina khush hai aur na Aarav.."

I looked at Ruhana with hope, I really wanted Aarav back in my life. But, I will leave the decision on Ruhana and Vineet.

Sameer said "Vineet.. Uss din jo hua please uske liye maaf kardo.. Aur mere bete ki khushi tumhari saali ke saath hai please accept karlo ye rishta"

Vineet looked towards me then at Sameer. He said "ye decision main nahi le sakta hun.. Alag hone ka faisla jiska tha wahi decide kare usko shaadi karni hai ki nahi"

"no Vineet.. I am not going to forgive Ahana.. Sirf ek jhagde se isne meri mannu ko itna bura bhalai kaha.. Kya guarantee hai iss baat ki aage aisa kuch nhi hoga" Ruhana questioned.

"aap... Mujhpe bharosa kijiye" Ahana said.

"kyun karoon tumpe bharosa main?? Aarav laadla devar hai na tumhara uska hi soch leti but nhi tumhe apni zid pyaari thi... Kal agar bahar se Kisine kuch kah dia to tum to ilzam meri behen aur khushi pe laga dogi.. I am sorry but ab mujhe ye rishta manzoor nhi hai" Ruhana declared.

She is right, after what Ahana did its hard for her to trust and forgive her.

"Ruhana ji please.. I know meri galti hai I over reacted.. Main yakeen dilati hun aage aisa kuch nahi hoga.. Already inn dono ne meri wajah se judaai sehen ki hai.. Ab jaane dijiye na aap bhi janti hai aur main bhi dono ek dusre ke bina nhi rah sakte" she exclaimed..

I eyed Ruhana, she seemed to be thoughtful.

Ahana then moved to Khushi, she cupped her face "sorry.. Please mere devar ko apna papa banalo" she said.

Khushi thought for a while "main aapko maaf karne waali kaun hoti hun? Aapne meri mumma pe allegations lagaye they.. Unki parvarish pe sawal uthaye they aapko unhe sorry bolna chahiye" she replied.

Ahana looked at me and then approached me. She glanced at me and then spoke "thank you for helping me.. Aur sorry uss din ke liye.. Umar mein tum mujhse bahut badi ho par rishte mein main tumse badi rahungi agar tum mere devar ko umar bhar jhelne ke liye taiyaar ho toh"

I smiled at her lightly..

"I am sorry.. Jabtak di aur jiju haan nhi kahenge main shaadi nhi karungi.. Bahut kuch kiya hai dono ne mere liye... Jaise Aarav aapke against nhi jaa sakta main unke against nhi jaa sakti.." I replied.

Ahana signed..

Aarav approached Ruhana "please Maan jayie na.. Itna Waqt laga bhabhi ko samjhane mei wo samjhi to aap rooth gyi.. Main aapko bharosa dilata hun na.. Jo pehle hua ab nahi hoga main sab sambhal lunga" he held her hand and assured her.

"Aarav..."

"please..." he looked at her with a hope.

Aarav sighed.. "bhaiya bhabhi Dad chaliye please"

He started to leave the house.. Ahana one last time tried to convince me "bolo Manvi tum Aarav ko tolerate karogi ki nhi..."

I glanced at Ruhana, she passed me a smile and I understood.

I smiled with teary eyes and said "haan"

Ahana hugged me and I wrapped my arms around her. Finally, she was convinced. We passed the last hurdle in our love after separation of 6 months.

Aarav turned back and smiled...

Khushi went to Aarav and side hugged him.. "I missed you dost.. Ab aap mujhe chodke kabhi mat jaana.." she said.

"Nahi jaunga.. Ab toh tumhe apne saath ghar leke jaunga" he said..

Avni and Khushi gave a side hug to Ruhana "Thank you Maasi.. I love you" Khushi spoke.

Ruhana smiled and smeared her head..

Everyone sat down and discussed marriage plans. I still felt it is a dream. Suddenly, Aarav came and stood beside me. He held my hand and I looked at him.

"Ye sapna nahi sach hai.. Hamare pyaar ko manzil milne waali hai" he said lovingly.

I smiled teary eyes. He was 24 and I was 42, months back it seemed impossible. But, today time changed. Our family was discussing about our marriage with happiness and wholeheartedly.

Khushi came and stood in between us, I left his hand. But Khushi stopped me with "nahi mumma.. Haath nahi chodna because love is beyond world"

"Dost.. meri mumma sadu mumma ho gayi thi ab finally wo happy ho gayi thank you for coming back in her life" she said looking at Aarav.

He smiled...

Khushi's POV

I was suprised seeing Aarav and his family at our house. Ruhana was angry seeing Ahana, but let them in when she said she wanted to talk something important.

I immediately called my mother and she came home. When Ahana apologized and accept my mother and Aarav's relation I was the happiest child.

Finally, my mother will get back her happiness and most importantly I will get my father. With whom I can spend rest of my life. I looked at the statue of the god and thanked him. He parted them but united them too.

Past 6 months, I had faith that one day Aarav will return in our life and today he is with us.

Virat said "shaadi.. 2 mahine baad karte hai.."

Aarav jumped in with "no bhai.. Main itna wait nahi kar sakta already 6 mahine delay ho gaya.."

Everyone laughed hearing him. I giggled and joined him "yes.. Shaadi toh jald se jald honi chahiye"

He said "haan.. Dekha meri beti bhi yahi chahti hai.."

"Thik hai phir... earliest date jo hai uspe shaadi kar denge" Vineet said with a smile.

I was elated...

They fixed the marriage date earliest of next month, it was too soon but not to worry. I will do all the preparations. It will be a grand wedding, but Manvi wanted simple wedding.

Ahana said "nahi shaadi toh grand hogi mere ek laute devar ki shaadi hai.. Samjhi"

Manvi nodded in yes..

Aarav's POV

I saw everyone busy, I held Manvi's hand and took her upstairs. I brought her on the terrace. She glanced at me.. "Aarav.. Sab hai neeche.."

I eyed her.. "Janta hun.. Par pure 6 mahine baad tumhe dekha hai.. Bahut kuch kehna chahta hun" I said.

She glanced at me silently, I said "bahut miss kiya tumhe.. Nahi rah sakta tha tumhare bina isliye khudko kaam mein uljake rakha.."

She smiled "Aur maine bhi toh tumhe miss kiya.. Phirse akdu boss ban gayi thi"

"Mujhe toh yakeen hi nahi hua jab bhabhi ne kaha.. Wo tumhe apni devrani banana chahti hai.." I said.

Manvi replied "mujhe bhi nahi.."

It started to rain, we were getting drenched in it. We were lost in each other, our emotions spoke.

I pulled her closer and she shivered with my touch on her waist. I approached her lips and attached hers with mine. She responded to my kiss and wrapped her arms around my neck. I broke the kiss when I needed to breath.

She sighed.. "Tumhe har jagah romance sujhta hai.."

"Of course sujhega.. 6 mahine 15 din 14 ghante 2 minute door raha hun tumse" I said remembering the time.

Then I whispered in her ears "waise bhi.. Yahi umar hai sab karne ki.."

She passed me her shy smile.

I heard sound.. "Aarav.. Kaha ho?"

I sighed.. "Aaya bhabhi.." I shouted..

She gave me a look "paagal ho kya? Upar aa gaya na koi toh kya sochenge?" she asked.

I winked at her and replied "yahi sochenge ki do love birds itne mahine baad mile hai... toh kuch haseen pal saath bita rahe hai"

She laughed hearing me and I was dying to see this laughter. After 10 minutes, we moved downstairs.

Everyone glanced at us, as we were wet. Manvi felt embarrassed but I spoke shamelessly "kya?? Aise kya dekh rahe ho?? Itne mahine baad mile hai toh baatein bhi na kare?"

Ruhana said something to which I was left totally shocked while others smiled. 

Did Ruhana really forgive ahana?
