The Episode Starts with….
Hostel,
Riddhima: Sejal what happened? What’s there in that note now? What does Kabir want more! One second!! If he is there in VR Mansion, then who was that who wanted us to watch this? And if it was some Kabir’s aid who was following his instructions but when Kabir isn’t in a position to give any instructions as he’s arrested then who’s note is this?? Sejal will you speak something?
Sejal: Riddhima come here!!!
Riddhima was worried and when she entered the balcony she saw Sejal staring into the sky. Riddhima didn’t understand and snatching the note from her hand Riddhima read it
“Mrs. Riddhima Vansh Rai Singhania, will you please do the honour of lifting your head up towards the sky!!”
Riddhima stared at the sky and her jaws fell open in shock
“The sky was filled with many balloons and among them a flight which carried a sorry note (Am Sorry Sweetheart) behind it and another flight released smoke in form of I Love You” Riddhima was shocked to see all that in front of her and for her.
Sejal was jumping in excitement
Sejal: Riddhima that’s for you!! He arranged everything so beautifully for your forgiveness. OMG!!! He’s so romantic. Isn’t he!!!
Riddhima (surprised): …. Did he…. do all this for me!!….
In VR Mansion too everyone was witnessing the sky show and while everyone were in awe.
Riddhima heard a voice which broke her trance
“Yes Sweetheart that’s all for you to seek your forgiveness”!!!
Sejal and Riddhima tried to find the source of sound and suddenly they see a drone flying up towards their room and they realize the voice is from it. Riddhima was freaking and was turning around to look at the TV to understand what’s happening and to her utter shock her doubt was right! It was Vansh who flew the drone in to her room and Riddhima ran into the room to find her reactions being played in the screen and reporters reporting it. Riddhima felt uneasy and her tears were back and she gave a disgusting look at the drone and then ran swiftly into the washroom and locked herself followed by Sejal knocking on the door
Vansh: Riddhima am sorry!!!!!
Ishani: Bhai I think we need to go!!!
Vansh: Angre!!!!
Angre: Got it boss!! (turning towards reporters) The press meet is done, now if you could excuse us.!!!
He showed them the way and once they made sure all left, Vansh along with family rushed towards her hostel.
Vansh (thinking): Am coming sweetheart! Your Vansh is coming to get you back
Its 11am, Hostel,
Sejal: Riddhima please open the door. It’s been a lot of time since you locked yourself. Look Warden Ma’am is also here and drone has left too! Open it!!! And before you misunderstand Vansh let me tell you that warden ma’am wasn’t kidnapped and she informed me that it was his plan to make sure you watch the press conference so he took Ma’am into consideration to plan all this. Now will you please for god sake open the door and speak something? Riddhima please!!!!
Sejal was tired trying to pacify Riddhima. Riddhima was adamant and was confused. She was hurt and upon this the way Vansh tricked her in seeing the conference and the drone hurt her more. She was weeping inconsolably locking herself in washroom. Then they heard a knock
Riddhima: Sejal please leave me alone and don’t knock the door!! Leave me alone (pissed)
Sejal: It’s not me. I mean someone knocked the room door. Let me check
Sejal: Who the hell is this now!! (frown)
She was shocked to find
Sejal (shock and puzzle): You!!!!!!
“Where is she?” Sejal was stunned, shocked, confused and puzzled. She didn’t know if she should react or not. And if she should then how!! She just gestured the person towards washroom. And the person barged into the room and was knocking the washroom door
Riddhima (thinking): Vansh am confused!!! Am confused of how should I react! You snatched my identity and threw me out of the house yet I came back to you to prove myself innocent and then I realise that you are aware. I get to know you were playing all long with me, my love, my feelings. And in favour of your actions, you tell you were protecting me. Will all this kill my pain? Will this take all the pain I suffered? Will my broken heart find solace? Will sorry snatch my sorrow? I have faced many ups and downs in this relationship with you but I never found you trusting me. Our relationship lacks trust and love Vansh! Today you gave me all the respect, my identity and revealed your feelings too but this isn’t giving me the relief for my pain. My pain isn’t suppressed. But somewhere in the corner of my heart am happy that today whole family stood for me but am confused if its your love or guilt that made you all to take a stand for me. I want to give you a chance and forgive you to lead a happy life but still somewhere my heart is scared of betrayal and heartbreak which I cant be able to take once again. What should I do Vansh! Bappa please show me a way! Should I forgive him and his family? What if they hurt me again? Or should I move on away from them? My heart isn’t cooperating with me!!! This seems like maze. Why is my life turning into a mysterious maze where taking a decision is being difficult!!!
Her thoughts were broke by a knock on her door pissing her more
Riddhima: Sejal for God sake leave me alone. Please!!! I want to stay alone for a while!!! (shout)
The knock stopped and without uttering anything backed out and were waiting for her to open the door. After a while like almost an hour or so, Sejal saw the door opening and rushed to find tired, broken Riddhima with moist eyes, tired cheeks and glow less face. She hugged her and expressed her fear
Sejal: What’s this Riddhima! I know you are hurt and are in pain but that doesn’t give you to scare me by your actions. I was freaking and what did you make yourself of!!! You ok now?
Riddhima just nodded and once Sejal moved aside to give way for Riddhima to sit, she was bewildered of the sight in front of her. She didn’t understand how did all that happen and when. She stared at Sejal and she nodded her head. Suddenly she felt being wrapped in a masculine personalities arms. She realised its her love. She wanted to hug back but her pain was stopping her from doing so. She stood motionless, expressionless.
Vansh: You scared me Riddhima!!! I was worried for you. I thought of breaking the door but then I was afraid I’ll hurt you more so didn’t barge as you wanted to stay alone! Am sorry!!!
Once out of the hug, he kissed her forehead and hugged her to calm himself. Dadi along with Ishani asked for forgiveness and hugged her but she didn’t respond to anyone. She stood like a mannequin not responding or uttering a word. Then she heard a voice which broke her position and glared at that person
“Bhabhi wont you hug your sister?” Riddhima saw Siya walking to her. This made Riddhima emotional and with tears she rushed and hugged her.
Riddhima: Siya!! Siya am happy to see you fine. Finally, you are awake after such a long sleep.
Siya: Bhabhi I had to after all it was the matter of my bhabhi’s dignity. How will I not!
Riddhima brushed her and helped her in sitting back on bed and was about to go when a hand held her wrist to stop her
Vansh: Riddhima where are you going? We are here to seek your forgiveness and take you home
She brushed his hand and turning towards the whole family and staring in his eyes she spoke
Riddhima: Which home? What forgiveness?
Ishani: Our home Riddhima. We all are sorry for whatever we did with you. Am ashamed of myself for always hurting you. Can you please forgive us for our deeds and return back please!!!
Dadi: Yes Riddhima we are your culprits. We hurt you and your self – respect. We are guilty of hurting you and we want to give you everything that’s yours! It’s our love speaking now! Please return back
Siya: Ha Bhabhi please!!! Return back to your home!
Angre: Bhabhi am sorry to hurt you though it was unwanted. But my intentions were never to break you. I was helping boss in protecting you. In this process we didn’t even realize when we broke you.
Riddhima: Dadi, Siya am sorry but now I have no relation with anyone there. For you all am an unknown person who sneaked into your house for money and am just a gold – digger right!
Vansh: Riddhima don’t call yourself that. You aren’t that! I know you!
Riddhima: You don’t know me Mr. Rai Singhania. If you had known me then you wouldn’t have broke me. And now am just Riddhima who’s an orphan. That Riddhima who was with you all died the moment she was called names and when her identity was snatched. Today this Riddhima is an orphan and now you all are unknown to me. So, please excuse me!!!
Saying she left the room without even turning around and was wiping tears which was noticed by Vansh. Sejal was about to go behind her but
Vansh: Sejal! I know even you are hurt and angry on me and my family for hurting your best friend but I have a small request
Sejal nodded
Vansh: Leave her for now!
Siya: Bhai what are you telling! We need to convince Bhabhi
Vansh: Siya she’s hurt, she broken. She’ll not come with us now. I have seen the pain she’s going through in her eyes and convincing her now is next to impossible. She lost trust on family, love and relations.
Ishani: So, what next?
Vansh: Vansh Rai Singhania hoon mein. I’ll get my sweetheart once again. Now its my time to prove my love for her and I’ll get her back in my life with love she wanted and deserves.
Dadi: What are you going to do?
Vansh (smile): What’s today dadi?
Angre: Bhai today is Sunday
Vansh: Date?
Sejal: 7th February
Vansh smirked. Something strikes girls
Trio (Ishani, Sejal and Siya): Are you sure? (excited)
Vansh (smirk): As damn as I trust my love. And now its test of my love and I’ll do it in a week and by next Sunday i.e., 14th February she’ll be in her house with her family! This is my promise to myself for my love.
Sejal: If that’s the case am in it with you. I’ll support you in all way you’ll need.
Vansh: Thank you Sejal it means a lot.
Sejal: When it’s the matter of my Riddhima am ready to anything. And this is the matter of her love whom she immensely loves but is hurt to accept so will do whatever I can to get a smile on her face.
Vansh: She’s lucky to have you and today I want to include in our family. You are her friend so you are technically my sister from today and this family is yours.
Sejal was overwhelmed by their gesture and everyone hugged her and welcomed her into the family and then discussed how to convince Riddhima.
Vansh: So, guys all ready?
All: YES!!!!
Vansh: Chalo! Mission Riddhima Manao starts now! Sejal you ready with what you are to do?
Sejal: Yes.
Its 6pm, Hostel,
After they discussed the plan Vansh and family left and Riddhima assumed that they’ll be back soon but none was there. She was about to go for a walk when Sejal came into her room
Sejal: Riddhima I need your help
Riddhima: Ha Sejal tell
Sejal: As I told you I was transferred to this branch from Dubai and today is my first event here. Actually, a business man has arranged events for Valentines week and from today till 14th he’s organizing small parties in his society for all the couples. I want you to accompany me all this week please. I’ll need your help!!
Riddhima: Sejal sorry but am in no mood to be a part of these events
Sejal: Please Riddhima!! Am in need to assistance and you are a pro in handling such events. Please!!!
After much persuasion she gave in and agreed to get along with her. Sejal messaged Vansh about the success of first step into their plan. They decided to behave as Sejal isn’t aware about Vansh’s plan.
Its 7:30pm,
Riddhima along with Sejal arrived to the spot and Sejal excused herself to check on the decorations and other arrangements. While Riddhima was strolling in the lawn observing the deco and the aroma was soothing her pain and the fresh air was as if taking all her pain. She missed her track and reached a spot where she found all types of roses spread into heart shaped décor. She felt mesmerized by it and was tingling her fingers on the roses
Riddhima: Woww!!! Seems like the person loves his/ her soulmate to the moon and back. I never saw these different types of roses in fact I never heard about many types too. But the way they arranged it shows the love the person has for their love. The person is lucky as they got such an understanding, loving partner. What may be the types of roses available? And how many are these!!! (thinking)
“There are total 150 types of roses available and this décor has all sought of them” Riddhima was stunned to hear a voice and in fear turned around to find a Silhouette. She realised it in a go!!! But she did have a doubt and was glaring at that person witing for him to come into light and then he came in front and her heart pondered as if finding solace.
Clad in a Black virgin wool blend fitted two-piece suit from Emporio Armani. She was mesmerized as to he was such a handsome guy and his eyes were having that glare which was sending chill down her spines. Though she dint want to accept yet the fact cant be changed he was indeed manly and hot in his attire which she was capturing in her heart! He was glaring his sweetheart who was clad in Red Halter Neck Asymmetrical High Low dress. For him she was nothing less than an angel. Her eyes had a glow which was pulling him towards her. He approached her with a smirk as she laid her eyes on his physique and then reality struck her and she realised she was staring him and then she wondered how come he’s here. Suddenly he bought a bouquet of 150 types of roses and forwarded it to her and spoke
Vansh: Sweetheart am afraid of the thought of losing the only rose of my life. Life is nothing without you. These roses are for you to say thank you for being there always with a heart full of love for me. On this special day I want you to know you are the only person to whom I want to wish with a rose. You are like the roses. You come in various colours of mood but never failed to charm my life. Roses are the loveliest in flowers and bring so much joy to our hearts just the way you bring happiness to my life. It is said, ‘Red is the Colour of Love’ & ‘Rose is the symbol of Love’. Today I present you both to remind you of my unconditional love. Happy rose day sweetheart.
Riddhima stared him in awe and was stunned to even react. She didn’t realise when he bent in front of her and held the bouquet in front of her. She getting back to senses, thought of taking the bouquet bu then her brain reminded her the pain she went through and that thought bought tears in her eyes and she was about to leave the place in haste but he held her wrist and bringing her close to him, he stared at the eyes which had pain flowing in the form of tears. He wiped it and kissed her eyes to express his love for her.
Vansh: I know the pain you went through; I know I cant decrease your pain but I assure you that you’ll never ever face all this in future. I can’t assure that you wont have issues but I can assure you that I’ll be by your side and you wont be alone facing all the troubles because even roses have thorns. But trust me sweetheart I wont break your trust once again. Please!!!
Riddhima: Am scared Vansh!! I cant bear another heartbreak. Am not that strong enough to face that. (crying)
He wipes her tears and kissing her forehead
Vansh: Till today you proved your love and now it’s my turn to prove it and I’ll do it for you. But would you like to give me a chance please!!!
Riddhima stared in his eyes and she felt it genuine and her heart wanted to accept his request and give him a chance but then her fear of pain was over powering her thoughts. He as if has read it understood her dilemma and kissed her cheeks puzzling her and then gave her the bouquet
Vansh: Its ok take your time and we have time too. Just accept this bouquet please
Riddhima didn’t utter anything but she getting rid of his hands left and then when she turned around she saw Vansh upset and dull. And then she ran back and grabbing the bouquet ran away leaving Vansh smiling
Vansh: Today you took a step so now its my promise that I’ll get you back within 6 days more. Happy Rose day Sweetheart!!!
