Avni (smile): True Akshit whatever it was. It was past and we are best friends now. You have already given me all the reasons to trust you again as my best friend. You always stood beside me. Whenever, I needed you. You were there with me. Few things were not in our hand. But that doesn't mean you did anything wrong with me. I am grateful for your friendship and support. Even after whatever happened you stood beside me, supported me and also that decision was not easy for you also if it was difficult for me. Please don't be guilty. Let those things go out of our lives.
