Dil tadap k kehta hai

[Annika - A, Shivaay - S]

Shivaay went to his room to talk to his wife, his Annika. He needed to fix this. Annika had just come out of the washroom

A: Shivaay, can we pause our fight for a moment? I have to talk to you about something

S: Can I go first?

He took a step closer to her and held her hands

S: Annika, I'm sorry. I've made a huge mistake. I shouldn't have said all of that to you. Mera gussa mera sabse bada enemy hai, sab barbaad kardeta hai. Mai janta hu tum mujhse badla nahi le rahi thi or us din kitchen wale incident me bhi tumne kuch nahi kiya tha. Mai bas kuch bhi bakwas bolta chala gya apne gusse me. I'm really really sorry. If I could take my words back I would. Please forgive me. {{My anger is my biggest enemy, it ruins everything. I know you weren't seeking revenge and you had nothing to do with the kitchen incident. I said a lot of bad things in my anger}}

A: Even I'm sorry Shivaay. I shouldn't have accused you, I should have talked to you, and handled it better. Marrying you was not a mistake, in fact, it brought me so much happiness. Shivaay, you have become a very important part of my life. Yesterday, when I heard about your accident, it killed me. The very thought of something bad happening to you stops my heart

Shivaay looked into her deep brown eyes and he could see how much she meant what she said.

A: I... I have come to depend on you more than I have ever admitted. When I saw you with Tia and I got to know she's your ex, honestly, I felt jealous (she looked down, embarrassed). But that's my problem, I understand you want to be with Tia and that's okay.

She looked into his eyes and tried to smile as genuinely as she could

A: As long as you're happy, I'm happy for you and I'll do whatever you need to end this marriage so you can unite with her.

Shivaay tried to stop her but she continued

A: I've had some of the best days of my life with you and it's time I fulfill my promise. I have no hard feelings, I don't think it's even possible for me anymore to hold any bad feelings against you or think ill of you. I just hope we can stay friends after all this

S: If you're done then may I say something? First, you doubted me and now you're trying to become 'kurbaani ki devi'. If I'm really that important to you then why didn't you ask me why I had been meeting Tia? Or if it's her I actually like? Annika, I never cheated on you, I can't even think of doing that

A: but Tia... and you admitted you found someone (confusion, confusion everywhere)

S: yes, I have, I have found someone. And I like her so much that when I hurt her, my heart aches. When she cries because of me I feel like inflicting pain on myself to punish myself. When she laughs, my entire being rejoices

Annika felt another pang of jealousy and heartache. Shivaay did have someone and he had such deep feelings for her. Tears ran down her face but she quickly wiped them off

A: does she feel the same way about you?

S: I don't know. But today she told me I'm important to her

Annika's heart skipped a beat as she processed his words, he looked at her with tender eyes. His kanji eyes stared down hers, conveying feelings he hadn't put into words yet
