Ma Papa its all my fault. If I hadn't walk into Viraat's room all these won't have happened.
Just then she hears a voice at the doorstep.
Maanvi Bitiya are you there.
Papa is that you
Yes Bitiya
Maanvi walks to the door and sees Amar there. She invites him in and offers to get him a drink. But Amar refuses it.
Maanvi I need to talk with you. Did you and Viraat fight?
Yes
Maanvi it is over the wedding issue?
Yes Papa
Have you called him yet?
No Papa
Maanvi I am going to tell you something that only Sunaina knows. Stay calm because you are going to be Viraat's strength.
What is it Papa
Maanvi I asked for the wedding to be held earlier because I have Cancer and it is the last stage already
Papa what...
Yes Bitiya. My end might be anytime and I am not upset about it. I don't know how to break the news to Viraat and Shlok. Please help me in this.
Papa nothing will happen to you. Don't worry
Maanvi it's late. Lock the door and go to bed. Come home for breakfast tomorrow. Goodnight
Good night Papa
As soon as Maanvi locked the door she broke down crying.
Good morning Di and Diya
Good morning Maanvi
Di is Viraat up yet
No he is still sleeping. He slept quite late last night
Okay Di
Maanvi rushes up to Viraat's room and sees Viraat sleeping peacefully
Viraat wake up
Maanvi
Sorry for fighting with you. I was really upset and I promise I would never do that again
Hey that was what I was going to say
Anyways wake up now. We will need to go out urgently
What is it about
Get ready and I will tell you
Maanvi then goes down to help Vanshika for breakfast
Ma sorry about yesterday. I didnt know about the pain you both were going through and Viraat and I have indeed hurt you
No Beti. I shouldn't have raised my hands. Sorry
Ma leave it. Please bless me cause today I am going to tell Viraat everything
May Devi Maiyaa lead the way for you
Mum, is breakfast ready
Yes Viraat coming
Maanvi and the rest join Viraat and after breakfast Maanvi brings Viraat to the park. They sit down at an empty bench and Maanvi starts.
Viraat, i want you to stay strong and I want you to know that I am there with you.
She then gives Viraat a hug
Hey what's the life threatening issue here
It is life threatening
What do you mean Maanvi
Papa
What about papa. Is it our marriage issue? Well our decision is the same. Unless we find out the reason we are not having it right. Wasn't that our mutual decision
Oh Viraat how would I make you understand.
She takes a deep breath
Viraat, Papa has cancer stage 3 and he won't be with us for long.
Maanvi stop joking. What's the main issue
Viraat it isn't April's fool. In fact it's May 1st today.
Silence fills the air. Maanvi places her hand on Viraat's shoulder
Papa is dying
Yes
And he didn't tell me
He did not know how to tell and how you would respond
Without Papa I can't imagine a life.
A tear rolls down Viraat's cheek. Maanvi wipes his tear and says I am there for you. Stay strong. He then pulls Maanvi into a hug and cries on her shoulder. Maanvi strokes his hair.
Viraat stay strong because after Papa you will lead the family. Shlok needs strength for his education. Ma needs support. In fact even I need you. Papa wants you to Be happy. No matter how sad you are don't show it to him.
