Chapter 24

Sid: Avu please come back. We all miss you a lot

A lump came in his throat at the end.

Sid: These four years were extremely difficult for each of us. Though all our group wanted me to move on so they always tried to show they are fine but I know how much they wanted you back. I know we were together for a very less time but still you have made a really important place in our hearts

Avu: Sid I...

Sid: (cuts her) If you don't wanna come back permanently, I won't force you. But please don't run away from us. Be in touch. Meet us. We all can be friends atleast

Avu sighed and just nodded.

Sid: And I am again repeating I don't hate you. I seriously don't. Don't ever think that

Avu smiled.

Avu: I know

Sid: If you ever need me, remember I am there

Avu: I can never thank you enough Sid

She said looking in his eyes.

Sid: To matt kro na. Bol bhi kon rha hai? Bass ab chhodke matt jana

Avu: I won't. First time someone hasn't judged me after Reem. First time someone hasn't taunt me for being a mother without marriage. You don't know Sid how much it means to me

Sid: By the way how is Ishaan? He must have grown up right?

Avu: Yee. He is eight years old now so obviously. I have never seen an understanding child like him. He understands me even more than myself. He takes care of me like anything

Sid: Avu trust me it's not age that makes a person mature, it's the situation and you should be proud of him

Avu: I know right. I remember used to hate him, regret having him. And today he is my biggest support. No matter how much problems are there in my life but every tear, every pain, every taunt seems worth it when I see him face. When he smiles and calls me mommy trust me, it makes my whole day. When he hugs me, kisses ny cheeks, I forget everything

Sid: Then I am proud of you how much you have transformed yourself. At time you used to hate him, blame him for your mistake. And today you are living just for me. Transformation you have gone through in these years, trust me it's commendable. Maturity you have got. I can't explain how much proud I am to have you as my friend, to know you

Avu smiled.

Avu: You are the first person to say that

Sid: It's true Avni I am glad to have you in my life

Avu: Sid can I ask you something?

Sid: Why being formal?

Avu: Why didn't you move on? I mean you said you don't have any girl in your life. Why?

Sid sighed.

Sid: I couldn't. I just couldn't. Pyaar to ek hi baar hota hai na. And the time I proposed you, still kuch doubts thi mere mind mein but in these 4 years, staying away from you made me realize you are the one I mean you are the only one. I can't even think of any other girl. You are the most important person in my life after my mom. I just couldn't move on Avni. Na hi kbhi kr paoonga. I told right I am waiting for that one right girl and I have realised you are only that girl

Avu looked down.

Avu: Sid you should move on. I don't deserve you. You deserve much better. You will get your dream girl but please forget me. Just forget me Sid please. It's best for everyone
