There will be a few hindi sentences in this chapter but I have given the translation in brackets.

My true love of my life is about to die within a few days and I am experiencing sorrow. Nothing or no one can change my opinion cause if I lost Ashi, I have lost myself too. Tears fell in my chest as I began to cry. 

Ria: Paapa kyon ro rahe ho. Krpaya roo mat kyonki mujhe dukh hoga.(Papa why are you crying. Please do not cry since I will feel hurt) 

Siddharth: Beti maine vah nahi bataaya jo mujhe bolana chaahie tha. Tumhaari Mom marane vaalee hai kyonki use phir se kainsar hai. Vah pachchees dinon mein marane vaalee hai. (Daughter, I didn't tell what I should have said. Your mummy is going to die, for she as cancer again. She is going to die in twenty-five days.) 

Ria: Nahi! Meri Mummy mar nahin sakatee! Vah asambhav hai! Javaab do Papa! (No! My mother cannot die! That is impossible! Answer me Papa!)

Siddharth:Mujhe dar hai ki yah sach hai mere jaaneman. Use ek gambheer beemaaree hai lekin meree bhee ichchha hai ki main use hamesha ke lie pa sakoon (I am afraid it is true my sweetheart. She has a severe disease but I wish too that I could have her forever)

Ria ran away from me and jumped onto her unmade bed. She sobbed very harshly and I comforted my child. She pushed me and right then Ashi walked right in by all the sounds which are being made. She saw her precious daughter and began to realize that I must have told Ria about the matter.  "Ria, why are you crying for me? Things must go on the way they are supposed to be right my treasure?" "Mummy-" She hugged Ashi very tightly which made me cry even more. "I love you my darling. I may be a long distance away from you but you will always be my child and that is not going to change in any way."I joined their hug as we all wiped away our tears and smiled.

The next few days passed away in a flash. Ria and I took care of Ashi and made her happier than ever for the last days left. We encouraged her to be friends again with the others once again but that is still a problem for her. One day while Ria and I were jogging to Bryant Park we saw Adrien and Isaac sitting together and speeding up to the bench. "Adrien, Isaac!" "Oh, my Sid! It has been years since we saw you!" They saw that I was not my usual self and asked what is the problem. "My mom has cancer again. She only has a few more days to live." "Oh, my goodness...We are so sorry! We have tried talking to our wives to be best friends again but did not work." When I heard they were married I felt so happy. "Do you have children?" "Yes. Esha and I have four daughters called Ella, Eliza, Iris, and Izabella." "Mari and I have two sons and one daughter called Louis, Hugo, and Emma" "That is awesome!" Adrien changed the mode again. " We can help to take care of her if you want. Is she in the hospital?" "Most of the time, yes." So the next few days we took her to the park, shopping center, and places she loves in New York. One day we even had a visit from her parents. 

Just yesterday mornin', they let me know that these are your last days

Ashi, the plans they made put an end to you

I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song

I just can't remember who to send it to

I've seen fire and I've seen rain

I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end

I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend

But I always thought that I'd see you again

Won't you look down upon me?

You've got to help me make a stand

You've just got to see me through another day

My body's aching and my time is at hand

And I won't make it any other way

Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain

I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end

I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend

But I always thought that I'd see you again

Been walking my mind to an easy time

My back turned towards the sun

Who knows, when the cold wind blows

It'll turn your head around

Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line

To talk about things to come

Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain

I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end

I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend

But I always thought that I'd see you, my darling

One more time again, now

Thought I'd see you one more time again

There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now

Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you, fire and rain, now

Finally, the day of her death arrived, and I had no desire to wake up. The doctors informed Ria and me that they had to take her to the operation room as soon as we arrived at the hospital. I had a limited amount of time before that to speak with her. "My Sid and Ria I will always love you. I am certain that because of you two, my entire life has been amazing. Esha and Mari would be right there with me if they could, so I want to beg their pardon for whatever I have done. If I hurt you in any way, I'm sorry. I wish to make everyone happy and at peace. You have my greatest love.  I love you." When they escorted her into the theatre room, she immediately died and was never to be seen alive again. As Ria sobbed from behind and everyone rushed to see her, I ran into the room and sobbed on top of her. My Ashi is gone.
