He gave her a thumbs up and smiled' she was finally happy again'his'no Armaan's Riddhima was finally happy. There had been a time in his life when he thought that he could bring her happiness by loving her to no extent'but after Armaan returned he realized that her happiness was not with him but with Armaan.
He fought so hard to get away from this realization' first he got angry with himself for being a barrier to her happiness and then at her for continuing their marriage in the sake of duty'but in the end it all worked out didn't it'for them at least'he faked the smiles and made it through the couple of days before he was leaving back to Houston.
He had to convince Riddhima that he was ok and that she should move on in her life. Armaan at first suspected that he was still sad'but he brushed him off by saying that "yaar mein bhi insaan hoon'I also have feelings yaar'thoda time thak I'll feel bad because hum saath tey to adaat ho gayi Riddhima ki'I'll be fine'please now 3 saal already finish hogay woo karne meh'don't waste any more time and pop the question and marry her yaar. Armaan at that point was convinced and smiled and gave Siddhant a tight hug saying'yaar mere kuchi pucchi do you really have to leave'please don't go na..stay! Siddhant replied saying dude'leave me already mere neighbors ko confusion tha..now Riddhima ko ho jaye ga'baas kar'I'm not going forever but I need a breather'plus man mom ka phone aaya tha she misses me too.. and your always welcome to my house in Houston whenever you want. With that he gave Armaan a tight dostana wala hug and left for the airport. Siddhant already met Riddhima earlier and he couldn't say goodbye again or else he would lose all his strength.
Sitting in the flight he reminisced all the time he spent with Riddhima'the first time they met at the airport where she had slapped him'when he had come to India he was an arrogant lad who despised the country and was only here for a short period of time but India had changed him'or more like the women of India had changed him. He was no longer the innocent but irresponsible chap that he used to be'Tamana had taught him humility and Riddhima taught him about sacrifice'he reminded himself that he had to forget her'forget that name that face'but how could he'his head started hurting'the mental turmoil was killing him'he pressed the button and flight attendant was at his service'he asked for a neat scotch'when he looked up to collect his drink' he saw her green eyes'and once again Riddhima came in front of his eyes' she was beckoning him to come towards her' he could her bangles clinking together he could feel her dupatta on his face as it flew'.
Sir'excuse me sir'your drink'
He was brought back to reality and he took the drink'he drank it in one gulp and shut his eyes'this was going to be harder then he thought.
