Author's Pov.
They left for the train the apologising session and the train was on time.
The amount of excitement they had while coming here now it's the same amount of tiredness they are carring back to Delhi. They all slept the entire journey this time also the train was same but the guys, ladies and mother-in-laws were in different compartments like earlier. Reaching Delhi they bid goodbyes to each other and Rhagav-Divya, Dhruv-Aditi, Mrs Chaudhury and Mrs Manhotra went to Chaudhury mansion. Mrs Manhotra, Dhruv and Aditi directly took a plane and left for Lucknow the same evening.
The entire journey Rhagav's mind was filled with what his mother said in the lift that day.Both Rhagav and Divya have more 15 to 20 days of holiday. So they along with Mrs Chaudhury decided to stay in Delhi for few days before going back.
That same evening when they returned from the trip Mr Chaudhary called them and chatting with him Mr Chaudhary told them about a weeding invitation from their old client in Delhi and he told the since Rhagav is in Delhi, he can attend Mr Narayan Chakraborty brother's weeding which is tomorrow along with Divya and his mother. Mrs Chaudhury was excited for the weeding but Rhagav was convinced after lot of tantrums.
Mr Narayan Chakraborty is an old acquaintance of Chaudharies so he invited Mr Chaudhary and his family to his brother's weeding. Mr Narayan has small daughter Priya Chakraborty. She is of same age as Ishan 2 years old, few months youngerto ishan, Divya's cousin Nikita di's son.
[Remember Nikita di (Nikita kundra, that's her name before marriage)whose husband died and was abandoned by her in laws who blamed her and her son (now 2 and half years old) for the dead of her husband when her son was just born and was of just 56days. Ishan the little one was seen as bad omen by her inlaws, so she now owns her own business, and is slowly becoming successful. She stays with Manhotras, who love pampered and care for her and Ishan like their own daughter and grandson, more than her own parents who forced her to get married. Due to a business deal, to a person who already was in love with someone else and her herself was in love with someone else. So both of them couldn't accept or love each other througout their entire journey.Nikita di is a beautiful, smart and sophisticated young lady in her late 20's she was marriedoff early just after her college. So after the death of her husband when she had to handle her son and herself alone she started her business of makeup and she has lunched her own brand, she is one of the youngest women to own her own brand]
So the next day they need go for weeding for which Mrs Chaudhury selected her saree and when Divya came to ask for help in selecting her outfits, she suggested Divya to wear a grown or saree. She agreed and went back to her room. Rhagav and Divya are still staying in different rooms, which according to them Mrs Chaudhury couldn't see because she is staying in the ground floor and they are staying in the 2nd floor.
Rhagav was confused and was thinking about what his mom said sitting in the room, "Mom....why does she have put such thoughts in my mind Ahhhhh!!!! Ohh God I need to calm to think about this....or nooo why am I even thinking..I don't love her.. yes I kissed her but not because I love her,that's maybe because I was drunk. Yes!! I was drunk"
He said this to himself sitting in his room. "Will she come here!!? Or stay in her room only?? Rhagav what's wrong with you...why would she come in my room, she will stay in hers only. Ok I need to sleep now." Saying this he opened his blanket covering himself he lied down on the bed to sleep but as he was closing his eyes he was getting the visuals of that night. "Ok fuck!!!! Now I can't sleep also!!!"
Getting frustrated by his thoughts he got off the bed he took his guitar out and opening the glass foor he went into attached balcony of his room,
The night view of Delhi, the busy roads and the music of his guitar 🎸 he soon started singing
Zulfe Teri
Mere Chehre Ko Sehlati Hai
Toh Kismat Meri
Haule Se Kuch Gun Gunati Hai
Jo Chup Na Sake Wo Baat Ho
Hai Sab Jante Jo Wo Raaz Ho
Pyasa Hu Main Tum Baarish Ki Aawaz Ho
Jo Main Raat Hu Toh Tu Khwab Hai
Jo Main Khali Panna Tu Alfaaz Hai
Main Khoya Musafir Toh Tu Chaon Hai
Ye Pehli Mohabbat Ka Ehsaas Hai
Bina Kuch Kahe
Jo Tu Nazron Se Sab Keh Jati Hai
Toh Fursat Meri Khwab Tere Dikhlati Hai
Tere Paas Main Mere Paas Tu
Akela Hoon To Bhi Tere Sath Hu
Main Toota Taara Hai Chandani Raat Tu
Jo Main Raat Hu Toh Tu Khwab Hai
Jo Main Khali Panna Tu Alfaaz Hai
Main Khoya Musafir Toh Tu Chaon Hai
Ye Pehli Mohabbat Ka Ehsaas Hai
Main Yahan Tu Kahan
Kaisi Yeh Tanhaiyan
Dhoond Lu Main Tujhe
Ishara Tu Karde Zara
Jo Ruthe Bhi Toh Na Jana Kahi
Main Tera Tha Kal Main Tera Abhi
Jo Main Raat Hu Toh Tu Khwab Hai
Jo Main Khaali Panna Tu Alfaaz Hai
Main Khoya Musafir Toh Tu Chaon Hai
Ye Pehli Mohabbat Ka Ehsaas
That soft music was blessing to the ears.
He felt free and calm while singing the memories flashed infront of his eyes...
[His balcony]
This song was his one of his favourite one, he loves singing, he loves dancing but all these are left behind as life started moving forward. As he lost his first girlfriend, he lost his music his dance, whenever he uses to hold the guitar 🎸 after she left, he couldn't sing, his hands used to shake, his voice used to crack, his head used to spin, but today nothing such happened.

The Flashback of him and Shershaa being together
Rhagav's Pov:
The night of her birthday I called her at 12.
We were dating each other since 2 years now. We were friends since kindergarten, i thought she is the sweetest girl, cause no one else was as sweet as her. Our school ended and we were waiting for our 12th boards results, i was a rich dad's son and i didn't reveal that to anyone cause I never wanted unwanted attention due to my money, i wanted those friends who accept me the way i am. But unfortunately it got reveal because on boards my dad, who is the biggest shareholder of school was called as a cheif guest, but this story was before that incident, if I didn't called her that day, then I maybe I couldn't know her reality and after knowing who I really am, She would maybe continued to be with me, but continued to cheat as well.
After the boards she claimed that she had a sleeping disorder due to stress that made her sleep all the time so she could barely ever answer my phone calls. One day I called, and she didn't answer, so I called back, thinking she left her phone in the other room.
The second time, a male voice answered. I was frozen but then asked the guy to find out who he was. From there, we talked about the situation. He was a Older guy name Siddhartha Oberoi around 23 to 24, yes ofcause I know him, not personally but I met him in a business party which I attended with Dad. He was in college and was about to join his father's business The Oberoi's Enterprises and she told him that she was also in college. I told him the truth and We met up in person and trapped and caught her through web of lies. She told the Siddhartha bhai that she had depression and didn't like to talk much, so he would only contact her when she texted him first.
We came up with a plan. I went to Oberoi's villa the next evening. She was told by Sid bhai that he was arranging a birthday party for her. She was very happy and when i asked her out for a cafe date she refused saying that she needs to be with her family on her birthday. Sid bhai then told her to come over for her birthday also because he wanted her to meet his new friend.
She came over, kissed him, seeing that majestic villa her eyes shined and asked where the friend was. Sid bhaii asked her to cut the cake first and while she was cutting the damm cake i turned on the mike and as soon as i did that Sid bhai and all the his other friends went quite so i came out singing "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU...HAPPY.BIRTHDAY TO.DEAR.SHERSHA.
She, of course, was shocked and the the knife fell from her hand she stopped in her tracks and immediately tries to walk out. But the guards stopped her....
My track of flashback broke when I heard a knock at the door.
