Hello everyone,

I hope you are doing okay. I was thinking maybe that I am not that good at writing those kinds of stories and I better stay in writing books and poems. I think you people do not like my stories and that's why you do not vote. If you do not like them please tell me, at least I will stop writing them instead of taking my time to write them and you do not appreciate them.

Do read what is at the end it is really important.

Anyways let's start this last part.

Episode start:

After they finished revising, riddhima went home and directly video called her brother

On the video call:

R: hey bro,

V: hey, so you didn't forget what I told you.

R: no, I remembered. So where are mom, dad and didi?

Gaurav: we are here

R (putting her hand on her forehand like a police): Good evening, CM sir

Gaurav (laughs): aree, riddhu how many times did I tell you not to call me like that

R (smiles): you know that I do not lie so I address you like your bodyguards do

Gaurav (shrugging his head in negative): crazy girl

R: tell me what I do not know

Gaurav: accha, are you liking the city. What about your college and the apartment? How is the security?

R: dad, dad... cool down. Everything is fine. Don't worry and you know that if someone tries to misbehave I kick his ass? Right, bhai

Gaurav*laughs: that is true

Vihaan: yeah, you kick his ass like you kicked the ass of my friend (laughs)

R: yep. Where is mom

Gaurav: riddhu, don't you know how aradhu is.

Aaradhya: riddhu, I'm here. I was just cooking something but your dad is always after me

Gaurav: me what did I do. You are always after food but look at you; you are so slim that sometime I wonder where the food you eat goes.

Aaradhya: can you just shut up

R: mom, dad. Do not start now. How you are doing now, mom?

Aaradhya: I am feeling better. I hope you are liking Mumbai

R: yes a lot...

Girl (pouting): I think you all forgot me

Everyone: sairaaa!

R: saira why do you behave like a baby? Sometime I think you are the smallest not me

Saira: shut up. See mama, she is mocking me

Aaradhya*laughs

Vihaan: you all don't start and let's talk a bit.

They talked and after ten minutes, riddhima went to sleep. In the next morning, riddhima went again to GR Mansion to prepare for the play. This time she directly went to Vansh's room and found him sleeping like a baby.

Riddhima: eenn. He looks so cute while sleeping. Look at his lips they look so soft like the one of a baby that I want to...

Vansh (still closing his eyes): what do you want to do with my lips, sweetheart?

Riddhima (embarrassed): you were listening to what I was saying

Vansh (waking up): yeah and I want to know what you want to do with my lips *winks

Riddhima (looking down): nothing

Vansh: are you sure

Riddhima: yeah

Vansh (standing from his bed and coming near her): but I want to do something with yours*smiles

Riddhima (going back): what do you want to do with them?

Vansh: kiss them what else

Riddhima: that you won't be able to do it, vaise you have to go and get ready before ragini and Ahaana arrive or else you know what will happen *smiles

Vansh: yeee I had totally forgotten that those witches are coming. I am going but I will give you a kiss for sure.

Riddhima: you won't. I am challenging you.

Vansh: are you sure! Because I love, challenges and I will surely win this challenge for sure

Riddhima*laughs: you will not. Good luck

Vansh: I am going.

Vansh went to get ready while riddhima went downstairs and had breakfast with Gurmeet and Uma. After some time vansh came, downstairs and the others too came.

Aryan: vansh yaar, you have a beautiful house

Vansh (attitude): tell me something that I don't know

Ragini: so can we have breakfast

Vansh (irritated): did you came to my house to have breakfast or to prepare the play.

Ragini: but see riddhima is sitting at the dining table

Vansh: so, riddhima is riddhima and you are you. In addition, you did not come here to observe who is eating or not, got it.

Ragini (murmurs): I wonder what he saw in that riddhima

Vansh: I saw something in her that you don't have

Kabir: vansh, leave her. Let's start with the revision of our play

Vansh: yes, let's go

They started to revise their play and were quiet enjoying it. When they finished the play, everyone went home except riddhima because vansh had asked her to stay a little bit

Riddhima: vansh, you asked me to stay now tell me what is it.

Vansh: come to my room, I will tell you

They went to Vansh's room but when they entered the room vansh fell down, and he was having problem breathing

Riddhima (worried): vansh, wake up. What to do, I do not what happened to him and his parents are not at home. Let me search on google

She searched on google and they told her that she should try CPR, if the person is unconscious and is having problem breathing. She did as told and vansh was back to normal

Riddhima (worried): vansh are you okay

Vansh (smiles): did something even happen to me

Riddhima: shut up! You were lying unconscious here and you are telling me that nothing happened to you

Vansh (smiles): that is what I am saying, nothing had happened to me. I was just acting

Riddhima (shocked): Whattt!! But why?

Vansh: you don't know.

Riddhima shaked her head negatively

Vansh: it was to complete my challenge

Riddhima: but which chall...

Riddhima didn't complete as she understood what he meant

Riddhima: I just can't believe this; you just did all this drama just to get a kiss from me

Vansh nodded positively

Riddhima: just don't talk to me till the next days, I'm really pissed off with you (she said while leaving)

Vansh (shaking his head negatively): now I had one challenge now I have a bigger one than that. To convince riddhima.

The next morning, they did their play and it was a fantastique one. They were even offered to play a film but still riddhima was not talking to vansh. Vansh tried all the ways to convince her but he was unsuccessfully. After some days, he tried to take her for a movie and this time it worked, he was forgiven.

Five months later,

During those five months, Rohit managed to tell siya that he loves her. And she too reciprocated the same feeling. Not only that riddhima and vansh too went to another level in their relationship. They became best friends from friends. They even started to have feelings for each other but vansh was denying it while riddhima was sure about that but was scared to tell him. Ishani and Angre's friendship had taken another level and now they were dating each other. Aryan and ragini who didn't like each other now were doing music videos together they had even became nice friends while for Kabir and Ahaana they still didn't appreciate each other's company.

In the morning, riddhima's apartment:

Riddhima POV:

Today, I am going out with vansh, but I am scared that I might not be able to control myself and tell him about my feelings and I cannot do that. What if he only considers me as his best friends, rejects, and then ends our friendship. I cannot afford to lose him now, I can live by just being his best friend forever but I cannot live without him.

Author POV:

Riddhima was lost in her thoughts when Vansh's car arrived and honked. She directly took her bag, closed her apartment, and went outside. When vansh saw her he was mesmerized, she was wearing a tawny tracksuit pant with a light pink sports bra with cross back straps and a white biker jacket and puma black shoes. She sat in the car, and was looking at vansh while vansh was lost in some thought.

Vansh POV:

I do not what changed that during those five months, whenever I see you I lose myself. I agree that, I had those feelings even before but now there is something more to it. Let us say that maybe at first, it was an attraction, and now maybe I love... no, no vansh, what the hell are you thinking? Don't you remember what you always say that she is your best friend and nothing else, so stop thinking nonsense.

Vansh's heart: you are not speaking nonsense, it is the truth you love her.

Vansh: shut up, okay. I do not want to listen to some nonsense right now; riddhima is just my best friend

Vansh's heart: yaa, continue to deny it. When another boy will take her away then you will realize what you lost.

Vansh: why would anyone take her away she is only mine?

Vansh's heart: oh really from when did she become yours

Vansh (stammering): eee... she is my best friend so...

Vansh's heart: accept it or deny it. The fact is that you love her and you cannot tolerate to see her with anyone else. You will realize what you feel, very soon and that is when someone will about to take her away from you.

Riddhima (touching him and awaking him from his thoughts): vansh, hi

Vansh (awaking from his thoughts): hi

Riddhima: what were you thinking? Since I came here, you were lost in some thoughts

Vansh: nothing

Riddhima (smiles): ok, so you said you had a nice plan for today what is it

Vansh (smiles back): something special

Riddhima: but what

Vansh: it is surprise

Riddhima (pouting): please say it

Vansh *smiles: surprise is a surprise

Riddhima (puppy eyes): please

Vansh: accha ok. First, we will go for a movie then we will go on a date

Riddhima (happy): on a date?

Vansh: yeah friends date, isn't cool

Riddhima (excitement disappears but tries to keep a smile): ok, vaise you did not tell me how am I looking

Vansh: nothing special

Riddhima: what! Let me go and change, then

Vansh (smiles): no no, you looking hot.

Riddhima: ok, let's go

Riddhima POV:

Vansh, you don't know how my hopes had went high when you said we are going on a date, I thought that maybe you will tell me what I want to listen but maybe love isn't in my destiny. You will never see me as I see you. You will always see me as your best friend that is why even today we are going on a friends date. How I wish one day you will love me, I just hope that day comes soon. For now, let me forget that I love you and just enjoy this day with you

Author POV:

They went for the movie, which did not take long. After that, they went to a restaurant. It was decorated beautiful outside even inside. They went inside, took their sits, and started talking. They were many people inside there but there was one boy who was looking at riddhima and smiling.

Riddhima: wow vansh, this restaurant is really decorated beautiful. I think something special is happening here.

Vansh: yeah me too.

When they were wondering what happened at that restaurant, a man came and took the mic and started.

Man: hello, I am Arnav, this restaurant's manager. Today is this restaurant 10th anniversary, which is why it is decorated like this.

The people clapped

Arnav: so for today we have something special for you guys. We have made chits with numbers, which are in this bowl, everyone will come here and pick. If you pick, one then you have to search for you partner who has the same number, as you, the two people who will dance very well, will be named the best couple of today and we will gift them to each one of the them a ticket to go to Paris. If you win, it does not mean that you have to go to Paris with the person you danced with, you will decide what you want to do.

Everyone started to pick the chits, but that boy's eyes were still looking at riddhima, this time vansh saw it but decided to ignore it. They too the chits, vansh and riddhima were dancing together. Everyone took his or her positions while the music started to play. Tum hi ho plays...

Hum tere bin ab reh nahi sakte (Now I can't live without you)

Tere bina kya wajood mera (Without you, I don't have any existence?)

Hum tere bin ab reh nahi sakte (Now I can't live without you)

Tere bina kya wajood mera (Without you, I don't have any existence?)

Tujhse juda agar ho jayange (if i get separated from you)

Toh khud se hi ho jayenge juda (then I'll get separated from myself)

Kyunki tum hi ho, ab tum hi ho (because you are the one, now you are the only one)

Zindagi ab tum hi ho... (Now you are my only life)

While this song was being playing, riddhima and vansh were staring in each other's eyes and dancing. The lyrics were making riddhima and vansh think about themselves.

Riddhima POV:

I said that I would not think about my love for you but what to do, this song is making me think of you. This song lyrics are just what you represent for me, how I just wish if I could represent the same for you

Vansh POV:

Why do I feel that the eyes of riddhima are trying to tell me something that I am unable to understand? What about those lyrics, I feel like the person is singing this song for me, because after all riddhima represents the same for me. But this song is a love song and I don't love riddhima. I'm so confused with my feelings. I don't what I feel for riddhima. I just hope that soon I know what I really I am feeling. No matter how much I deny it but still the truth is that riddhima's presence matters a lot for me.

They were dancing until the song ended and they didn't even get to know about it. They continued until the people clapped ant they parted away.

Arnav: so, I think we all know the one, this beautiful girl and thi handsome boy. Please tell us your name

Vansh/ Riddima (at the same time): Vansh. Riddhima

Arnav: beautiful names. So as we said you will get a ticket to go to Paris, before you go home we will give to you. So go back to your sits and continue to enjoy the night. I will be back soon with another interesting game for you.

While all this happened, that boy was still looking at riddhima. Now, vansh was pissed.

Vansh POV:

Who is that stupid who is looking at my riddhima? I think that boy wants to die at my hands.

Vansh's heart: I told you not to call her, yours.

Vansh: still she is my friend so I will call her as I want

Vansh's heart: oh god! You are still adamant that she is just a friend for you. Anyways whether you admit that you love or not, I think it is too late to accept it because as I said now someone is interested in riddhima, now she will go away from you. So keep saying that she is your friend

Vansh: just shut up, okay! Going with that stupid boy, my foot. She will go with him over my dead body; I will not let that happen. Let me first deal with that boy.

~POV ends~

Vansh was about to go to that boy, when that boy himself came in Vansh's direction. Vansh was about to catch him, when he heard riddhima say

Riddhima: Rehaan

Rehaan: hi

Riddhima: hi, how are u doing?

Rehaan: good and u

Riddhima: me too, I am cool. Been long since we meet

Rehaan: yaa, you are a bad girl. You came in India and you did not tell me. When you entered here, I felt I know you, but I could not remember where, as you changed a lot.

Riddhima: yaa, I know it has been two years since we meet so that is why. If you could not recognize me at first then how did you recognize me?

Rehaan: by that ring (he said while pointing to riddhima's finger, which had a ring with two R)

Riddhima: ooh, now I understand. After all, you are the one who gave it to me

While all this conversation was going on, vansh was just confused about how they know each other. He was even feeling jealous, seeing how riddhima was talking to Rehaan without remembering that he too is present. When riddhima turned, she remembered that vansh is there and so how confused vansh was and decided to present Rehaan.

Riddhima: vansh, meet my bf, Rehaan

Vansh (shaking hands with Rehaan): nice to meet you

Rehaan (shaking back Vansh's hand): nice to meet you too

Vansh was pressing rehaan's hands because of his jealousy and riddhima who saw that, decided to talk to him later about his strange behaviour

Riddhima (shaking vansh): vansh, leave rehaan's hands

Vansh: ooh, sorry

Rehaan (forcing a smile on his face): it is okay

Vansh: but riddhima, I did not understand what you meant by bf. Did you mean best friend

Rehaan: no, he meant boyfriend

Vansh: did I ask you

Riddhima: vansh is that a way to talk to someone and by the way's he is right.

Vansh: you mean he is your boyfriend

Riddhima: yes and no

Vansh did not even understand then no that she added, he just heard the "yes". He became so angry that he was thinking something else and saying something else

Vansh (pulling riddhima closer): how can you do that? When I asked you, five months ago you said you do not have a boyfriend. How can you do that to me? I agree, I was taking time to accept my feelings but that does not mean you should go to someone else. I know you too feel the same as I feel for you, yes riddhima, I love you. I just can't tolerate it when I see you with another man and maybe that's what made me have this courage to tell you the feelings that I was denying from the day we meet. I do not know if what I felt for you when we met was an attraction or love but I do know that what I feel right now is love, I love you riddhima, I love you so much (he said it so loudly that everyone in the restaurant listened to that)

Riddhima (hugging him): I love you too vansh. I had already accepted my feeling for you but I was scared that you would reject me and then end our friendship. Moreover, I could not afford to lose you, vansh you have become a big part of my life that I cannot live without. The two of us, want to become actors, we will work together and hard for it. We will fight all the hurdles together, and face everything bravely. So will you will be with me in this journey (she said while forwarding her hand towards him)

Vansh: yes (he said while putting his hand in riddhima's hand)

Riddhima and vansh hugged each other while the other in the restaurant clapped for them.

Vansh: vaise, if you had feeling for me why did you say that he is your boyfriend. Was it for making me jealous?

Riddhima (smiles): no, foolish boy, it is you who did not listen to my answer fully. I said yes and no but you only heard the "yes". And by the ways I didn't even know that you were jealous, if I knew that you would be jealous like that and tell me your feeling, I would have done it long back.

Vansh: ooh ok. But then why did you answer yes and no

Riddhima: I said yes, because we consider each other like boyfriend and girlfriend. And no because we don't have feeling for each other. We just do it for fun

Vansh: ok but now that you will be my girlfriend, you will stop doing that. Moreover, you will even remove that ring (pointing to the ring that had two R)

Riddhima (smiles): possessive boy

Vansh (smiles): yes, after all you are just mine

Riddhima and vansh hugged each other, which marked their new start in life.
