Sid: Avi

His eyes got teary seeing her reaction.

Avu: Sid I...I really do not know. I am not sure about all this

Sid: You do not have feelings for me?

As much as she wanted to deny her feelings and lie to him, she was not able to.

Sid: Just say it once Avni that you do not have feelings for me and you will never have to worry about all these. These are my feelings Avni so it is my problem. Not yours. I will deal with them

Avu: Sid this might be infatuation or something as well. How are you so sure it is love only?

Sid: Ya at one time it was a crush or infatuation whatever you name it but now I am sure it is love. Avi about my feelings I am very sure. You have too think about yours. If you need time, I am ready to wait

Avu: Sid there are so many girls out there. Why only me? You have such a nice job. You are good-looking. There are so many girls and you will get any. Then why me?

Sid: Because they are not you Avni. They are not the love of my life. And if I can geet any girl, then why not you. Don't you like me a bit? 

Avu: There is nothing like that Sid. I never thought of  you like that

She said looking here and there and Sid was closely noticing her.

Sid: Avi calm down first of all. You know you can share anything with me. Is there any problem

Avu: No I am alright

Sid: Then let me court you at least. Give me one chance. We can see where it goes

Avu: No

She said breaking down.

Sid: Avi. It's ok if you do not want. We can go back and forget this conversation. You do not have to cry

Avu: I am not ready for any relationship. I am not ready for any more heart breaks. I am not ready to get in a relationship, dream my whole future, my whole life with that guy just to again end in tears and a broken heart. You know how much it took me to heal myself from my break up with Akshit. Now I am scared Sid. Scared to fall in love. Scared to start a relationship. Scared to have a beautiful time, those smiles and then end up in that immense darkness. I am scared now. I am scared no boy will accept my Hazel, my daughter and I cannot leave her at any cost

She said crying. Sid shifted beside her started caressing her back and let her cry holding her hand. When she was done, Sid gave her a glass of water.

Sid: See Avni I understand your fear but you have to move on. You know every relationship will not have same result

Avu: But most probably it will na. Who will accept Hazel with me? Can you? Because any boy who has to marry has to accept her. I am not available for time pass for sometime and then end  the relationship. I fall for someone and enter in a relationship, I want it to last forever

Sid: What if I say I am willing to have Hazel as my own daughter. I love her Avni. I can't take her parents' place in her life. Nor can you. But we can give her all the love we can Avi

Avu was looking into his eyes and could only see truth and honesty.

Avu: What about your family? Will they accept her? Will they accept us?

Sid: Lad lenge Avni. Mein shayad akela kuch na kar paaoo. Tum saath dogi to ek saath duniya se lad lenge. Look Avni I won't say Akshit ne sahi kia yaa galat. I am none to judge. But hnn uss mein nhi hai itni himmat stand lene ki apni family ke against and he chose his family instead of you. Theek hai shayad uske perspective se. But agar ek ladka nhi lad paya to zaroori nhi hai koi bhi nhi lad payega tumhare lie. Ek mauka de kar dekho. I am ready. Mein mom dad se baat karne ke lie bhi tyaar hu aur agar zaroorat pade to stand lene ke lie bhi. And Zalak di to loves you. She wants us together

Avu was still looking at him a bit unsure. Sid forwarded his hand.

Sid: Do you want us to have a small family of ours? Me, you and our daughter, Hazel. All I need is your one yes and support and I will not think about this world. I swear. You guys mean the world to me. I want to make my beautiful family with you two

Sid was looking at her with hopeful eyes. Avu was looking from her hand and then eyes. She raised her shaky hand and wiped her tear. She shut her eyes for a moment. She opened her eyes and kept her hand in Sid's with a smile. A teary smile came on Sid's face. Avu nodded her head.

Avu: I want to have this family as well Sid. I do have some feelings for you which I am still pondering over but I trust you

And those words were more than enough for him and he did not need to hear anything else. He immediately pulled her in a warm embrace. Both had a smile on their faces with tears rolling their eyes. They were ready to start a new and beautiful life with each other.
