Today's episode was heartwrenching.
For the first time, Riddhima sees the real Vansh. The broken, vulnerable, lonely Vansh who has everything and yet nothing.
He is an orphan, who lost his mother when he was young...and then soon after, his father too.
When Riddhima unknowingly accused him of killing his mother, he was devastated. Ek beta kaise apne ma ko maar sakta hain?
Angry at this hurtful accusation, he retaliates to Riddhima - Tum kaise samjhogi parivar ka matlab? Ma kya hoti hain...parivar kya hota hain...tum kaise samjhogi? Anaath ho na...
Riddhima listens to him, stunned. His words pierce her heart. Anaath ho na tum...tum kaise samjhogi? His words echo in her mind. She had heard many things from this man...but this was sonething she did not expect.
But can she blame him? To uncover the truth...she had stepped on his deepest wound. If only his family had come clean...she wouldnt need to do all this! Why did they not simply tell her that the secret room holds the last memories of his biological mother?
But it is too late now. She has done what she shouldnt have. She prays to God for forgiveness...goes to Vansh, and apologizes...I am sorry...Main ek anaath hoon...kya main nahi samjhoongi?
But he is in no mood to listen. He pushes her out of his room...his life.
But this is only the beginning. When the anger subsides, he will realize...that if there is anyone in the house who can truly feel his pain...it is her. Bcoz just like him, she too is an orphan. They are both orphans, longing for love.
The day he realizes this, he will probably forgive her. And she too will realize he is not the monster she thinks him to be.
