"What did you just say?" Zoya asked Asha with a shocked look, "I...I pushed Yash...to death? I killed my Yash?"

Asha just looked down without answering anything, while Pooja and Arjun looked at each other with a baffled look.

"I am asking you something!" Zoya shrugged Asha as she asked, "What did you mean? What did I do? What...what are you...hiding from me, Asha?"

Radha looked on with a confused look, while Asha looked up at a shattered Zoya.

"I never wanted to tell you this. But I guess it's important that you know this now." Asha said with a distraught look, "The night before you were supposed to come to Mumbai for the wedding, Yash was all set to prepare for a grand welcome for you. Maybe, he was a bit too dedicated in that..."

"Am I missing out on something?" As he went through the apartment, Yash asked on the phone, at the decorations and gifts, "Is there something else that needs to be included?"

"Oh God, Yash! It's enough man!" Asha said on the phone, sitting on her couch in her house, "You have got everything ready, and come on, even if you miss out on one or two things, it's fine. We cannot reach perfection in anything. Whatever you have done is good. Enough. Now go and sleep. We have a lot of work tomorrow!"

"Hmmm...yeah I guess..." Yash said when he got a reminder on his phone. Reading it, he closed his eyes, "How did I forget this?"

"What is it?"

"Zoya asked me to prepare her a bouquet with white datura flowers; her favorite flower for the wedding. I forgot that amidst all these wedding purchases. Damn it!"

"So what, you are going to get them now?" Asha asked sitting upright.

"Of course! She strictly said that she wanted those flowers at her wedding. I don't want her to lose out on that happiness. She should have everything that she wishes for."

"Come on Yash. Zoya is like a child; she keeps asking for stuff like a child, and you keep spoiling her this way. She would have just asked like that, Yash. It's not that she is going to stop the wedding if you don't get those. And now it's too late; where will you get those flowers? Zoya will be reaching tomorrow early morning. Just leave it nah! It's fine!"

"No Asha." Yash took his car keys, "Zoya will be really sad if I don't get her that. Madam has strictly said that she will not marry me without that!" Yash chuckled, as he added, "I know she is a baby. She keeps having these strange requests, but poor thing doesn't have anyone else to ask all these things, right?" Yash said with a smile, "It's okay. I can do anything to see my Zoya smile."

Asha smiled, while Yash added, "And I know a place. I have seen these flowers in abundance there. It's a bit in the outskirts and a restricted area."

"Restricted area? Are you sure you wanna do this?"

"Come on Asha! You are getting scared as if someone would murder me for taking some flowers! I will just go, get some, and reach home in a while! Okay then, I will hang up. I have to leave!"

"And that was the last I heard from him," Asha took a deep breath, as a drop of tear trickled down her cheek. Radha stood there with tears, as she looked at Zoya who was standing there with a devastated look.
