Trying again and again and patience leads to success. Neil also applied the same trick in his life. Neil understood that he had to deal with Avni with patience and he would have to try again and again to gain Avni's trust.

It was the daytime, Avni was sitting on the bed in her room and Neil came into the room. Neil remembered something and he went to the cupboard and Avni saw him. Avni looked down at the bed and Neil took out a small box and looked at it. Neil looked at Avni and then he again looked at the box. Neil shut the cupboard and came to the bed and sat in front of Avni. Avni looked at her hands. Neil looked at the box and passed it to Avni. Avni saw the box.

Neil: Avni, this is for you.

Avni looked at Neil. Neil suppressed his lips and nodded.

Neil: Actually, yeh tumhari mou dikhai hai. Main kal raat ko tumhe dena hi bhul gaya tha. Abhi jab tumhari bangles ko dekha to mujhe yaad aya. Hmm, yeh lo.

Avni took the box.

Avni: Thank you.

Neil smiled and Avni was about to keep it on the bed but she thought. Neil also got hurt when he saw Avni keeping the box on the bed. Avni opened the box and saw two bangles. Avni liked that. Avni smiled and Neil also got happy.

Avni: Yeh kanghan bohat sundhar hain.

Neil smiled and his happiness reflected on his face. Avni looked at Neil and smiled. Avni took the bangles and put on them. Avni showed her bangles to Neil. Neil smiled widely.

Neil: Bohat sundhar lag rahe hain.

Avni smiled.

Neil was smiling and he looked at Avni who shut the box and kept the box on the bed. Neil's smile faded and he realized that Avni liked the bangles but she didn't put on them. Neil got upset. Avni looked at Neil who smiled fakely.

Avni: Main kisi special occasion per yeh kanghan zaror pehnu gi.

Neil smiled and nodded. Neil looked down and sighed.

Later, Neil showed his childhood pictures to Avni and told her the stories of his childhood. Avni smiled and she remembered her childhood. Neil found Avni lost and he thought. Avni looked at Neil who asked her what happened but Avni shook her head. Neil smiled and he continued.

Days passed and Neil tried to make Avni comfortable. Neil took Avni outside to the parks or on a date and he tried his best to make things normal between them but Avni didn't open up. After Neela Maa's death, Avni went back to her shell and she was not able to cope up with the storm which was inside her. She was feeling lonely and was not able to move on from her mother's death though she came back to her normal routine but still she was not able to move on. The day of Neil's going abroad also came.

Avni was sitting on the bed and Neil came to Avni and sat near her. Neil's leg was hanging down. Avni looked at Neil's hand because something was in his hand. Neil was looking at his hand and then he looked at Avni who also looked at him. Neil opened his fist while looking at his hand and a heart-shaped pendant was in his hand. Avni looked at Neil's hand and was surprised to see the pendant.

Neil: Yeh tumhare liye hai.

Neil opened the heart and showed it to Avni. Avni looked at it and she was surprised to see Neela Maa's picture in it. Avni's eyes got moist. Neil looked at Avni. Avni looked at Neil with moist eyes who was looking at her. Neil's parent's picture was on the other side.

Neil: Kal main yahan se chala jaunga to socha jane se pehle tumhe kuch asa de kar jaun jo tumhe mushkil waqt main himmat de.

Neil smiled.

Neil: Phir mujhe yeh khayal aya ke kyun na tumhe yeh diya jaye.

Neil smiled and looked at the pendant. Neil held the chain of the pendent and the pendant was hanging. Avni was looking at the pendant. Neil kept the pendant on his palm.

Neil: Ab humare parents humesha tumhare dil ke pass rahen ge.

Avni looked at Neil who also looked at her. Neil smiled.

Neil: Jab bhi tumhe dar lage yaa phir tumhe akalapan mehsos ho yeh pendant tumhe himmat de ga.

Neil was looking at the pendant and Avni also looked at the pendant. Avni smiled. Neil took the pendant in his hand and then he held it with both hands. Neil passed the pendent to Avni.

Neil: Hmm.

Avni took the pendant from Neil and she looked at the pendant emotionally. Avni kissed it and Neil smiled. Avni closed the pendant and tried to put on it. Neil saw Avni struggling and he thought.

Neil: Lao main help kar deta hun.

Neil got up and he went behind Avni. Neil took Avni's hair to the side and Avni shivered. Neil looked at Avni. Neil replaced Avni's hand and kept his one leg on the bed. Neil tied the pendant on Avni's neck.

Neil: Done.

Avni smiled and looked at the pendant. Neil came and sat in front of Avni. Avni opened the pendant and kissed it. Avni closed the pendent. Avni looked at Neil.

Avni: Thank you.

Neil smiled and said, you're welcome.

Neil hugged Avni who also hugged him back and smiled with moist eyes.

The next day, Neil was packing his suitcase and Avni was present there for his help but she was just standing there. One suitcase and one bag were kept there. Neil packed his bag and Shweta came there with Bebe and Prakash. Shweta was carrying the boxes of food.

Shweta: Yeh tere khane ke liye hain. Bag main rakh le.

Neil and Prakash made a face.

Neil: Mom, main by air jaa raha hun, by train nahi jo main yeh raste main khaon ga.

Avni smiled.

Shweta: Tu chup kar. Raste main khane ke liye nahi hain. Wahan khane ke liye hain.

Prakash: Kyun wahan khana nahi milta?

Shweta: Maa ke hath ka khana thori milta hai.

Shweta got emotional and Neil made a face.

Neil: Mom.

Avni: Agar Mummy Ji keh rahi hain to maan jao.

Neil made a face.

Bebe: Ab to Biwi ne bhi bol diya ab to bhai le kar jana parega.

Prakash smiled and Avni and Neil, both felt something in their heart to hear the word "Biwi". Neil felt that now Avni belongs to him. She is his wife. Avni also thought that now she was someone's wife. She belongs to Neil. She is a wife. They looked down and then they looked at each other. Avni avoided eye contact. Neil smiled.

Neil looked at Shweta and forwarded his hands to take the boxes. Shweta smiled with teary eyes. Shweta gave the boxes.

Prakash: Yeahhh...

Neil smiled and kept them on the bed. Neil opened the zip of the bag.

Neil: see, is main jaga hi nahi hai. Pehle hi aap ne dry fruits, papar aur pata nahi kya, kya rakh diya hai.

Shweta: us side rakh agaenge. Hat main jaga banati hun.

Shweta came and Neil and Shweta kept the boxes and arranged the clothes in the bag. Shweta was wiping her tears from time to time. Neil saw that and felt bad. Neil closed the bag.

Shweta: dekh ho gaya.

Shweta wiped her tears.

Neil: Mom, stop crying.

Avni looked at Neil and then she looked at Shweta. Shweta cupped Neil's face.

Shweta: kaise rahe ga tu wahan. Kaise rahun gi main tere bina.

Neil: Aaww.

Neil hugged her.

Neil: my dear Mom, sirf do saal ki to baat hai aur phir main vacation main to aya karun ga na.

Shweta: Do saal, mere liye to do din bhi bare hain.

Neil chuckled and others smiled.

Neil: to phir ab kya kiya jaye? Jane ka plan cancel kar den?

Shweta wiped her tears and said: Nahi, nahi. Tu jaa tera sapna pura kar.

Neil smiled and cupped Shweta's face.

Neil: Pakka?

Avni smiled to see them. Shweta smiled and kept her hand on Neil's hand. Shweta nodded and Neil smiled.

Shweta: Pakka.

Neil: That's like my cool mom.

Everyone smiled and Avni adored the cute bond of mother and son. Neil hugged Shweta and kissed her head. They smiled.

Prakash: Ab humain chalna chahiye.

Prakash signed to Bebe. Shweta and Neil broke the hug. Prakash signed to Shweta who nodded.

Shweta: Han chaliye. Humain bhi to Neil ke sath airport jana hai.

Neil looked at them and then he looked down. Neil understood their plan. Avni also looked down.

Shweta: Hum bhi ready ho jate hain. Tillu, tu dekh le kuch reh to nahi gaya. Avni, beta, Tillu ki help kar dena.

Avni nodded while looking down and Neil looked at her. Neil looked down.

The family went from there and Avneil was alone there. Neil pressed the bag and checked on the bed. Neil cleaned his hands. Neil sighed and looked at Avni and then he looked down. Avni was looking down. Avni came to Neil.

Avni: Tumhe kuch chahiye?

Neil looked at her. Neil shook his head while looking down.

Neil: Nahi.

Avni nodded while looking down. Neil was getting emotional. Neil gulped. Neil looked at Avni.

Neil: tum bhi chalo gi na airport.

Avni looked at Neil who was looking at her with hopeful eyes.

Avni: Agar tum chahte ho main chalun to main zaror chalun gi.

Neil smiled.

Neil: Thanks.

Avni smiled.

Neil: Betho.

Neil took the bag and kept it on the floor and he kept the second bag on the floor also. They sat there. Avni and Neil were feeling awkward and both were silent. Neil looked at Avni and then he looked at her hands. Neil took Avni's hand who looked at the hands. Neil took Avni's hand in between his hands. Neil looked at Avni who also looked at him.

Neil: Avni. Main aaj jaa raha hun lekin tum khud to akela mehsos mat karna. Pura parivaar hai yahan tumhare sath. Aur main dur ho kar bhi hamesha tumhare sath rahun ga.

Avni was surprised because her mother also told her that she would be with Avni forever.

Neil: Tumhe koi bhi problem ho. Kisi bhi cheese ki zarorat ho bus ek call kar dena mujhe. Mujhe apne pass paugi.

Avni looked at Neil with moist eyes.

Neil: hmm.

Avni looked down and nodded.

Neil nodded and said, ok.

They sat there for some time.

It was the time of the night. An airport was shown where a crowd of people was present. Some were going away from their family and some were coming to their family. Some were waiting for their loved ones and some came to see off their loved ones. The Khanna family was also present there.

Shweta, Bebe, and Prakash were standing and Avni and Neil were sitting on the bench. Neil looked at Avni and then he looked at Avni's hand. Neil held Avni's hand. Avni felt that and she flinched. Avni looked at the hands and then she looked at Neil who was looking at her. Neil intervened his fingers with Avni's fingers and Avni looked down. Avni also held Neil's hand. Neil smiled.

They sat there for a few minutes and then they heard the announcement.

Avneil looked there and then they looked at each other. The family looked at them. They got up and Neil sighed. They came to the family. Neil met the family. Neil took blessings from Prakash who hugged him. Neil got emotional. Prakash petted Neil's back.

Prakash: Apna dihan rakhna aur kisi bhi cheese ki zarorat pare bus Dad ko ek call kar dena, hmm.

Neil: Yes, Dad. Aap bhi apna aur sab ka dihan rakhiye ga.

Prakash: I will. Don't worry.

Neil wiped his eyes and sighed. Shweta cried. Neil hugged her and got emotional. Neil cupped her face and wiped her tears. Avni also got emotional to see them. Neil kissed Shweta's forehead who wiped Neil's tears. Neil smiled and sniffed. Neil wiped his tears. It is very difficult to go away from your family. Neil again hugged Shweta.

Neil: Apna dihan rakhiye ga aur time per khana khaiye ga aur time per rest kijiye ga.

Shweta: Ab mera recorded lecture dubbing kar ke mujhe hi mat suna.

Neil chuckled and Avni smiled. Avni wiped her tears. Neil saw her and Avni smiled to see him. Neil smiled. Neil looked at Bebe and broke the hug. Neil met Bebe who also got emotional.

Neil said while hugging Bebe: Meri Mom ko zyada pareshand mat kijiye ga.

Bebe: woh mere sar ka dard hai main nahi.

Neil smiled.

Neil: BP ki medicine time se lijiye ga. Yeh na ho ke medicine aap na len aur sara gussa meri pyari mom per nikalen.

Bebe: Rehn de. Pyari aur teri Maa. Yeh kis kitab main likha hai.

Neil: Aray.

They smiled and Shweta wiped her tears. Prakash side-hugged Shweta. They broke the hug and Neil wiped Bebe's tears.

Neil: don't cry, I hate tears.

Bebe: yeh tu apni Maa ko bol jis ne ro ro kar barah laa deni hai.

Neil chuckled. Neil sighed.

Neil: Oh, Man, I will miss these chitchats.

They smiled sadly. Neil looked at Avni who was looking at him. The family looked at each other and they nodded. They moved to the side and Avneil saw them. Neil came to Avni. Avni smiled to see Neil.

Avni: don't worry, main ghar main sab ka dihan rakhun gi.

Neil: Aur apna bhi. Apne bhi dihan rakhna kahin asa naa ho ke sab ka dihan rakhne ke chakar main khud ka dihan hi naa rakho. Mujhe meri puri family, Mom, Dad, Bebe aur meri wifey sab theek chahiye.

Avni smiled. Neil smiled to see her.

Neil: Apna khayal rakhna.

Avni: Tum bhi.

Neil nodded and he moved to Avni. Neil hugged Avni who also hugged him. Neil squeezed his eyes and he just wanted that moment to stop there. He wants to freeze everything and just wants to live in that moment. They heard the announcement and Neil sighed. Neil broke the hug and looked at Avni who also looked at him. Neil took steps back and he came to his luggage. Neil took his luggage and said bye to all. Neil waved his hand with a heavy heart and moved the steps backward. Neil turned and was going. Avni and others were looking at him. Neil stopped and turned. Neil waved his hand and gave a flying kiss. Avni looked down and others smiled. They waved their hands and then Neil turned and went from there. Prakash handled Shweta and Bebe. Avni looked at them and then she lowered her gaze.

The Khanna family was going back in the car and Prakash wanted to make them feel good so he stopped the car on the way and bought them the ice cream. They enjoyed the ice cream.

The next day, the Khanna family was sitting sadly at the dining table. Avni came there and she kept the bowl on the table. Avni saw the family.

Avni: Aap sab ne abhi tak breakfast shuru nahi kiya.

Shweta: Mera mann nahi hai.

Avni nodded.

Avni: Hmm. To aap sab breakfast nahi karen ge. Ok. Means aap sab ne decide kar liya hai ke mujhe Neil se dant khilwa kar rahen ge.

The family looked at Avni. Avni saw them.

Avni: Han. Ab aap sab theek se nahi khaenge to weak ho jaenge. Jab Neil aap ko dekhe ga to woh to mujhe hi danten ge na. Woh to yahi kahen ge ke main aap sab ka dihan nahi rakh rahi.

The family looked down and Avni saw them.

Avni: Theek hai agar aap sab breakfast nahi karen ge to main bhi nahi karun gi.

The Khanna family was shocked.

Shweta: Aray.

Avni: Hum sab ek family hain na to main bhi aap sab ke sath weak hun gi. Woh kya kehte hain... han hum sath, sath hain.

The Khanna family smiled.

Avni: Phir mere sath sath aap sab ko bhi dant pare gi. Hmm.

Avni went to her chair and sat on it.

Shweta: oye dramebaaz, chal ab bus kar tera drama aur breakfast shuru kar.

Avni was about to say.

Bebe: Han baba hum bhi breakfast kar rahe hain. Humain bhi shoq nahi hai tere pati se dant khane ka.

Avni looked down and then the Khanna family smiled.

Bebe: Chal breakfast shuru kar.

Avni: OK, lekin aaj main sab ko breakfast serve karun gi.

The Khanna family was about to deny but Avni got up. They stopped Avni but Avni didn't listen so they dropped the weapon. Avni fed the first bit to them and then they fed Avni. Avni side-hugged Shweta who petted her cheek. Avni squeezed her eyes. Avni came to her chair and sat on it. Avni saw the family smiling and eating. Avni sighed happily and she felt a peace that she was finding for a long.

Later, Neil talked to the family on the video call.

Neil; Hey, Hi.

Shweta got emotional.

Neil: Hi, Mom, Dad, how are you?

Shweta waved her hand.

Prakash: We are good. How are you? Theek se pohanch gaya?

Neil: Yes, Dad. Bebe kahan hain?

The Khanna family talked and Avni was standing at the side. Avni was looking at them. Avni thought.

Later, Avni was sitting on the bed in her room and she was folding her and Neil's clothes. Avni's phone rang and Avni looked at her phone and saw Neil's number. Avni smiled and picked up the phone. It was a video call. Avni and Neil saw each other. Neil looked at Avni and he didn't talk for a few seconds.

Neil: Hey, Hi.

Avni: Hi.

Neil: How are you?

Avni: I am good, how are you?

Neil: Good.

Avni nodded. Neil thought about what to say.

Neil: Kya kar rahi thi?

Avni: Kuch khas nahi bus kapre tey kar ke rakh rahi thi.

Neil: oh. Ghar main sab theek hain?

Avni nodded.

Avni: Hmm, sab theek hain.

Neil: OK.

Neil wanted to talk to Avni but they were confused about what to say.

Neil: aur sab theek hain?

Avni nodded. Neil nodded while pressing his lips.

Neil: ok, tum rest karo. Main bhi ab thora rest kar leta hun. Bad main baat karunga.

Avni nodded.

Neil said, bye and Avni replied to him. Neil cut the call and sighed. Neil thought.

Days passed like this and Neil daily called Avni but they paused after hi, hello, and thought about what to say. Neil always tried to drag the conversation but they couldn't talk for more than two minutes. One day, Neil and Avni were talking on the phone.

Neil: Kya kar rahi thi?

Avni: Kuch nahi bus abhi room main ayi hun. Bebe ke pass thi.

Neil: Bebe theek hain?

Avni nodded and said yes, Bebe theek hain.

Neil: OK, tumhari test ki preparation kaisi chal rahi hai?

Avni: sahi chal rahi hai.

Neil: Online classes bhi le rahi ho?

Avni nodded and said, yes.

Neil: OK.

Neil thought but he didn't find any excuse.

Neil: Acha theek hai main rakhta hun phir, bye?

Avni: Bye.

Avni cut the call and Neil sighed. Neil got up from the couch.

Days passed like this. One day, Avni was sitting on the bed and she was preparing for the test. Avni checked her books.

Avni said while searching in the book: Kahan rakh diye woh notes.

Avni took the books from the bed and she took the folder.

Avni checked in the folder and said: Pura register alag tha aur photocopy bhi kar kar rakhe the isi dar se ke kahin kho naa jaen. Lekin ab dono main se koi ek bhi nahi mil raha.

Avni looked up from the folder: Tch.

Avni looked at the book and she remembered.

Avni: Kahin Mehta house main to nahi reh gaye?

Avni thought.

The next day, the sun was shining in the sky. Ashish and Dayawanti Mehta were standing in Ashish's room.

DM: Ab tak police case band kyun nahi howa?

Ashish: Prakash Khanna band nahi hone de raha. Mujhe to laga tha ke Avni, Khanna parivaar ki bahu bane gi to humare ash hunge lekin yahan to sab kuch hi ulta ho raha hai. Yeh log to gale hi par gaye hain.

DM: Kaha tha tujhe ke chori wala jhot mat bol.

Ashish: Mujhe kya pata tha ke asa hoga. Mujhe to laga tha ke asa karne se shak hum per se hat jaye ga.

DM: kahan phasa diya hai tu ne. Tujhse apne ghusse per kabu nahi hota. Naa tu Neela ko marta aur naa asa hota.

Avni was standing outside the room and she was shocked. Avni widened her eyes. Avni kept her hand on her mouth and she stood with the support of the wall. Ashish and Dayawanti Mehta were so engrossed in their talk that they didn't hear the sound of bangles.

Ashish: Kitni baar kaha hai ke maine usay nahi mara hai woh to ghalti se. Main to usay rok raha tha sachai Avni aur Neil ko batane se. Aap wahi per to thi. Sab aap ne samne howa. Us ka pair phisal gaya aur woh jaa giri...

DM: Acha bus, bus. Ab to is ghar ko bech bhi nahi sakte. Koi lene ko tiyar nahi hai.

Avni was standing outside the room and tears fell from her eyes. Avni stumbled and collided with a vase. Ashish and Dayawanti Mehta were shocked. Avni was shocked. Avni looked at the door and she was shocked.

It was daytime in London, the bridge of London was looking beautiful and the people were busy with their activities. The students were going to the college and some were present there in the garden area and some were going to their department. Neil was present in his classroom and the lecture was going on. Suddenly, Neil felt something and he looked here and there.

Neil whispered: Avni.

Neil felt restless. Neil thought.

Neil in mind: Mujhe asa kyun lag raha hai ke Avni kisi problem main hai.

Neil thought. Neil saw the time on his watch.

Neil in mind: Class khatam hone wali hai. Us ke bad Avni se baat karta hun.

Neil thought and he tried to concentrate on the lecture but he was not able to do so.

Soon, the lecture ended and he got up from his seat while taking out his phone from his pocket. Neil took his bag and he moved. Neil came out and he was standing in the corridor. Neil dialed Avni's number but Avni's number was out of reach. Neil frowned. Neil dialed a number.

On the other side, Shweta was going to the living area and her phone rang. Shweta saw Neil's number and she smiled.

Shweta: Hello, meri Jaan.

Neil: Hello, hey, hi, Mom. How are you?

Shweta: I am good, how are you?

Neil: I am good. How is everyone in the home, Dad, Bebe, Avni?

Shweta smiled.

Shweta: Yeh bol na ke Avni kaisi hai?

Neil made a face.

Neil: Mom.

Shweta smiled.

Shweta: Mazak kar rahi hun. Sab theek hain?

Neil was relieved.

Neil: ab, Avni kahan hai?

Shweta: Acha matlab main theek thi biwi ki yaad sata rahi hai is liye Maa ko yaad kiya hai.

Neil: Mom, please.

Shweta smiled.

Shweta: Acha baba, nahi cher rahi tujhe. Avni...

Shweta looked around and remembered.

Shweta: Avni, center gai hai us ki class ka time hai na.

Neil in mind: Oh... isi liye shayad us ka number nahi lag raha tha.

Shweta: Aur keh rahi thi ke us ke bad library jaye gi.

Neil frowned.

Neil: Library?

Shweta: Han woh usay koi book issue karwani thi.

Neil: Oh, ok.

Shweta: Hmm.

Neil: Aur sab theek hain na?

Shweta: Han sab theek hain. Tu bata kaisa hai? Teri studies kaisi chal rahi hain.

Neil: Main theek hun. Abhi bus class khatam hoi hai ab bus apartment jaa kar so jaunga.

Shweta smiled.

Shweta: Din main soye ga?

Neil smiled.

Neil: Kya karun, bohat thak jata hun.

Shweta: Theek hai.

Neil: Acha, Mom, ab main rakhta hun.

Neil remembered.

Neil: aur Avni jab aye to usay kahiye ga mujhse baat kare.

Shweta: OK, Boss.

Neil smiled.

Neil: OK, Bye.

Neil cut the call and thought.

Neil came to his apartment and kept the keys on the table which was kept near the wall and also kept his bag on it. Neil removed his shoes and wore the slippers. Neil kept his shoes in the rank and switched on the lights. Neil sighed and went inside.

Neil was laying on the bed and he wanted to sleep and was very tired but he was not able to sleep. After a lot of trying, Neil slept but soon his sleep got disturbed. Neil opened his eyes and thought. Neil sat on the bed. Neil thought and he took his phone.

Neil: Teen ghante ho gaye hain Avni ne abhi tak call nahi ki.

Neil thought.

Neil: Mujhe itni bechaini kyun ho rahi hai?

Neil thought. Neil was feeling restless.
