(AN:Listen to this song,Judaai  while reading this to get the feel. )

Ragini was dumbfounded when she heard about the proposal. Her breath was hitched and she was too numb to react. She just stood rooted at her place. Laksh took her silence as a yes and he took her finger and made her wear the 'RING OF COMMITMENT'.He hugged her in happiness while she still stood frozen at her spot. He broke the hug and cupped her face and leaned forward to kiss her. when suddenly a slap brought him back to his senses. 

He stumbled but he was strong enough to balance himself

He stumbled but he was strong enough to balance himself. He looked at Ragini but he wished that he never looked into her eyes because those eyes were showing pure disgust to him. He just couldn't bear her stare so he turned away when he felt her turning him towards her. She went near him and fisted his collar in her hand.

Ragini(in a cold low and dangerous tone): How dare you. How could you think of doing this with me. Do you think of me as your favourite toy? That you can play with me whenever you want and when you're tired of playing you'd place it away until next time. Why are you doing this to me?(Tears started to form in her eyes and she went down to her knees dragging him down) With great difficulty I was able to mend myself together after you left me to rot and now when I am collecting the broken pieces of my heart and trying to join it. Do you not want me to live in peace (Laksh also had tears in his eyes and he nodded his head as no).

I had always dreamt of you being my husband Lakshya(his heart broke when he heard Lakshya from his mouth instead of Laksh) ever since I saw your photo. My stupid heart was is and I don't until when but it will be beating for you. I always thought you are my soulmate but you broke me from within. You've made me a total mess.

I might not have enjoyed as much as I did until now but I hadn't suffered this much as well. You take me to the staircase of heaven and just when I am about to step inside, you push me down to the Earth. I would have forgiven you if it was the first time which I did as well, but you weren't satisfied. You were hell bent on breaking me over and over. You only told me near Hooghly right? That you and I can never be together. Yes Lakshya, Ragini and Laksh can never be RAGLAK.

Laksh: Why are you speaking like this? You love me right? I know I have broken your heart but please give me a chance to redeem myself. Please give me a chance. That's all I want to ask you. One chance.

Ragini: Lakshya you had your chance at love which you ruined after confessing feelings for my sister. You had your chance as a friend which you tentatively ruined by this proposal of yours.
About me loving you. I can never deny the fact that I can never stop loving you. That's the reason I never want to marry ever. I can never be faithful to another person and to myself when I have you in my heart. But I just cannot compromise on my self respect. You broke me. You were one of the reasons that my family was banished from the Marwadi society. You were the reason that Sanskaar wanted to break me again by using me as a pawn. You know I never said this. Though I have forgiven Sanskaar I can never trust him because he has broken it and there is no way that I am going to trust him again. He might have been my best friend but trusting him is something that would happen after we go a long way ahead.
