"Do you really love me?  Or were you  faking it from the beginning?"

"I've always let you do what you wanted. I don't interfere in the matters of your job. And you did this to me. How could you?"

"If you had loved me, you won't have done this– standing here with someone else."

"I hate you, Ruhana. You've ditched me, and someone else is telling me about all this. I won't forgive you for this."

"Vineet, firstly listen to me. It's not like you're thinking. Trust me." she pleaded, holding his hand.

"I don't trust you anymore, Ruhana. Now, there's nothing left between us."  saying so  he leaves the place.

She wakes up from her deep slumber, panting heavily. It's all her dream and reality, both at the same time. She wipes the sweat off her forehead. Tears trickle down her eyes and she brings out a photograph from beneath her pillow.

It's her picture with Vineet where he's kissing her forehead, securing her in one arm and clicking a selfie with the other. She loved it instantly and get it copied and framed. The frame of this picture broke during their argument and she has kept the picture with herself.

He might have broken all ties with her but she still loves him. All his memories still haunt her, he learned half truth from someone and reacted without listening to her. He still doesn't know that she faked the wedding.

He broke her heart into bits and pieces, yet she can't stop loving him. Her younger sister often coaxes her to either talk to him or move on in her life. That's something hard for her.

Vineet was her first love, her everything. Though he didn't believe her, yet, she's given all of herself to her relationship with him and she can't throw it away.

This old photograph is her sweet haven, which often brings tears in her eyes, but she's determined to treasure it, for, her love for him became a Life lesson.
