Ruhan Vani ko dekhta reh jata hai. Ruhan ki nazar Vani ke hath pe jati hai, Vani ne Ruhan ka 11sal phele diya bracelet aaj bhi pehan rakha hai. Ruhan bas dur se dekhta reh jata hai.
Vani akele hi street pe chalti hui jaa rahi hai, Vani abhi bhi shocked me hai, ki uske sath ye kiya hua...?, Vani ki achank aankhe nam hone lagti hai, Aur wo pichali yaadon me ghum ho jati hai.
