Riddhima video called Angre.

RIDDHIMA: Hii Angre. Good Afternoon.

ANGRE: Hii Di. Good Afternoon. Where is Kiyaan?

KIYAAN: Hii Angre. I'm here.

Riddhima moved the phone in such a way that Angre can see both her & Kiyaan.

ANGRE: Do you both have taken your lunch?

KIYAAN: Yes & what about you?

ANGRE: I had taken it earlier today as I had to come office for some urgent work.

Riddhima gave her phone to Kiyaan. He got busy in talking with Angre. Riddhima's & Vansh's eyes met. Vansh asked Riddhima through his eyes is everything Okay? Riddhima replied with blinking her eyes. Vansh understood that both brother sister duo needs time. So he thought to not to disturb their privacy.

VANSH: Chalo let's continue Riddhima & Kiyaan will join us.

RIDDHIMA: Ya we'll join you soon.

INDRANI: Mein aur Akshat aaraam karne jaa rahe hain. We will join you all afterwards.

All others went leaving Kiyaan & Riddhima alone. After talking with Angre for sometime he cut the call. Meanwhile Vansh forgot his phone in hall so he came back to take it. Riddhima & Kiyaan are unaware of his presence.

RIDDHIMA: Kiyaan you know na I'm always there for you. Dard apne andar rakhne se gehra hota hain, use baat lena chahiye.

KIYAAN: Di aaj Maa aur Papa ki bahot yaad aa rahi hain. I ....

He couldn't complete his words & bursted in tears 😭😭😭. Seeing him like this, Riddhima also lost her control. Kiyaan was hugging her like a small baby. Riddhima's tears were flowing from her eyes 😓😓😓, but she composed herself for the sake of Kiyaan. Both brother - sister duo handled each other. Vansh saw all this. Seeing Riddhima's broken state he felt pain in his heart. He went back without taking his phone as he didn't wished to disturb them. After sometime Kiyaan got calm & for sometime he laid down keeping his head in Riddhima's lap again. After a while, Kiyaan got up.

KIYAAN: Di chaliye hum game room mein chalte hain.

RIDDHIMA: Kiyaan chalo pehle freshen up ho jao aur phir chalte hain (said wiping his tears like a mother & caressing his face).

After freshening up, both went to game room. Vansh & Riddhima saw each other & smiled 🙂. Ajay saw Kiyaan & called him.

AJAY: Kiyaan come let's play pool table.

KIYAAN: Coming Uncle.

Kiyaan went. Others were busy in playing games. Vansh thought to have some time with Riddhima.

VANSH: Riddhima come let's play at ping pong table.

RIDDHIMA: Okay.

They both started playing table tennis. Between the game both were observing each other in a way that they can't get caught. Both were sharing cute eye locks time to time. Both were playing well, the game was becoming interesting. Meanwhile Vansh started to cheer up Riddhima.

VANSH: Wow Riddhima it was an amazing shot.

RIDDHIMA: Really Vansh.

VANSH: It was brilliant Riddhima. Come on, come on.

She again shot beautifully.

VANSH: Ya Riddhima. Keep going. You are playing well.

Riddhima was getting encouraged. They played it for a while & Vansh won the match.

RIDDHIMA: Congratulations Vansh.

VANSH: Thank you Riddhima.

This way Vansh & Riddhima played many games along with others till snacks time. During playing Riddhima observed how Vansh just enjoys the games & living the moments rather than worrying about winning or losing, how he has special bonding with every family member. She realized he is the apple of everyone's eye in Raisinghania family. She smiled 😊 remembering the moments when he being opponent still encouraged her & how he made her learn few skills which she was lacking.

After that everyone went to garden & has snacks. All were chit chatting while Vansh brought some board games from his room. Akshat & Indrani decided to play Snakes & Ladders. Ajay & Uma took Jenga, Chanchal & Rudra took Scrabble, Kiyaan & Siya took Scattergories, Aryan, Rehaan & Ishani took Sequence. Vansh took Ludo for himself & Riddhima. Everyone with their partners sat at some distance. Vansh deliberately took Riddhima at little far distance, so he could talk with her. As Riddhima was busy in her phone she didin't realized it. They both sat & started to play.

VANSH: Which colour you want Riddhima, Red, Blue, Green or Yellow?

RIDDHIMA: I'll go with anyone.

VANSH: Riddhima never compromise yourself. You are all you've got.

RIDDHIMA: Vansh what if we have lost ourself?

VANSH: We never loose ourselves Riddhima. It's just that we didn't find ourselves, we just lived in the bubble created by others & compromise with ourselves.

RIDDHIMA: I'll go with red colour.

VANSH: Okay.

They both started playing. Riddhima was enjoying with Vansh. They completed 1 round & Riddhima won. In next round, Riddhima's all tokens were in house while Vansh's all tokens were out.

VANSH: Riddhima have you done PhD in social distancing?

RIDDHIMA: What are you saying Vansh?

VANSH: So what you are not coming out of house, how will I play alone? (said with cute puppy eyes & innocent face with a pout 🥺🥺🥺).

Seeing his expression Riddhima giggled, which made Vansh's heart dance in happiness. He pulled her chin lovingly.

VANSH: You are too adorable Riddhu.

Hearing Riddhu from his mouth, she felt loved & cared 🥰🥰🥰. She became emotional but masked her emotions. She smiled 🙂 at him.

VANSH: Come on throw the dice. It's your turn now. Come out of the house this time otherwise I'll not let you eat your favourite Aloo ke Parathe with Fruit Raita.

RIDDHIMA: Vansh you are behaving like a kid.

VANSH: Riddhu we should never kill our inner child in us. It's the key to happiness.

Like this they completed 2nd round. They saw what others were doing. Siya & Kiyaan were walking. Ishani was sleeping keeping her head on Rehaan's lap & was chatting with him. Aryan was busy in phone. Indrani was leaning on Akshat's shoulder & both were watching something on phone. Uma & Chanchal were lying keeping their heads in the lap of Ajay & Rudra respectively. Both men were playing with their wife's hair & were chit chatting with their lady love respectively. Vansh was smiling seeing them. Riddhima saw Vansh's happiness. She smiled seeing him.

VANSH: Riddhu would you like to go for a walk with me?

RIDDHIMA: Sure.

Vansh stood up & forwarded his hand to Riddhima. She first looked at his hand & then his eyes. He signaled through his eyes to take his hand. She placed her hand looking into his eyes. He holded her hand tightly & securedly with all the warmth & care & an unknown emotion he has for her. She felt secured, peaceful, comfortable, cared & warmth & an unknown emotion in his hand. She woke up & unwantedly both freed their hand. They started walking. There was silence between them but it was making their heart dance with beautiful feelings. While walking they came out of everyone's sight near pool.

VANSH: Riddhu let's sit here. I wanted to share something with you.

RIDDHIMA: What happened Vansh?

Vansh sat at pool side & made her sit beside him. They both dipped their legs in pool. Vansh narrated afternoon's event when Kiyaan broke down infront of Riddhima. He explained how he came back to take his mobile which he had forgotten on sofa in hall & witnessed their emotional moment.

VANSH: Riddhima I never...

But he was cut off by Riddhima.

RIDDHIMA: I trust you Vansh.

VANSH: Riddhu I'm sorry.

RIDDHIMA: It's okay Vansh. I liked the way you shared it rather than hiding it. I'm proud to have a friend like you.

VANSH: Riddhu I'm so proud of you, you are very strong. I'm also proud of Kiyaan. He is a strong guy. Crying doesn't mean that person is weak, it means that person is strong. They has holded that pain, those emotions inside from long time & that comes out in form of tears in front of their loved ones. Crying is a sign of strong not weak.

Riddhima was hearing him with teary eyes. She just hugged him & broke down in his arms. He hugged her back.

RIDDHIMA: Va...Vansh...

VANSH: Shhhh.... Riddhu calm down. You don't need to share anything until you are comfortable. Riddhu don't hold yourself, just for once let your emotions free. It will make you feel lighter. You will always find me with you Riddhu no matter what.

Riddhima snuggled more in him & hugged him tight. He also hugged her tightly & was caressing her hairs while kissing her head to make her feel secured & providing warmth to her. Riddhima's head was in crook of his neck, her ear near his heart & arms around his torso. She was feeling so comfortable & peaceful in his arms & his heartbeat was like the most soulful music she has ever heard. Vansh's one hand was on her back & one hand on her head caressing her hairs lovingly & his chin was on her head.They both were still in the same position.

RIDDHIMA: Vansh promise me you will never leave me, you will always remain same like you are now.

Vansh kissed her hairs.

VANSH: I promise Riddhu.
