Author's pov
They were having their food together when Kabir choked and Ridhhima handed him the glass of water.

R(with concern): Kabir, slowly, take water.

Vihaan eyed her in disbelief and then Kabir who was smiling fakely at her. 

K(drinking it): Thank you, Riddhima, for taking care of me. 

R: Of course, My brother in law, right? or (looking at all of them smiling) they lied to me? 

K: Not at all.

Vihaan left the dining table making Riddhimaconfused, she turned to them apologetically. 

R: Dadi, I am sorry, I will see my angry husband

D(chuckled): Sure, go beta (she disappeared) The memory loss did magic on Riddhima, Her behavior is changed. 

They hated Riddhima more than before but no one voiced it loudly as they will get an earful from dadi.

R: Vansh, why did you go without having food? 

V: Riddhima, stop this drama, why are you acting here? We are alone.

R: what do you mean? 

V(to himself): No doctor forbade me from saying anything to her, If there's a 1% chance that she lost her memory for real then I won't ignore it, and hurt her. 

V(covering up): I mean why are you acting here? we are alone, Obviously, you know that I came here so that you follow me and then (holding her waist) I can romance my beautiful wife alone. 

R(encircling her arms around his neck): really Mr.Long forgotten husband, You are bipolar! Now you are in the mood for romance. But Let me tell you a secret (whispered) I like it.

V(surprised): WHAT? Do you like it? 

R: WHat's the problem? Aren't we couple And happily  married? They showed me the pics of us. (resting her head on his shoulder) We have amazing pics together. I may not remember anything about my life, but when I see it, I sensed that it was all that I want during my whole life, (smiling widely) Isn't it perfect?

He distanced himself from her feeling more perplexed, and she held him with a hurt look in her eyes. 

R: What's the issue? (tears appeared) Did I do something wrong? 

Vi: No, You didn't, don't cry. You said we have to eat then I will go and bring it for both of us.

He departed the room and Kabir came inside it, she gave him a wide smile.

K: Riddhima, I have to tell you something important. 

R: what is it, Kabir? 

K: the truth of this marriage, You don't remember anything, but you are in this state because of your husband.

R(stunned): what? 

K: Yes, You were trying to find clues about his involvement in a girl's murder, & when he got to know he planned your accident.

R(angrily): How dare you talk about him? He is your brother, Kabir! But still, you are accusing him in his back!

K: shhh, Riddhima, If you don't believe me, I will bring proofs, Don't tell him anything he may hurt you; 

She looked behind him only to see Her husband there with a blank expression on his face.

Vi: What are you doing here, Kabir?
