His way of speaking had remained unchanged after all these years. "Dev..." Her voice quivered with surprise. Could it be that Dev still carried Ranjana's memories within his heart? "Yes... even today... despite my best efforts..." Dev confessed, his voice filled with vulnerability. Ranjana's smile faded as she contemplated his words. "I'm sorry, Dev." Dev smiled once again, a bittersweet expression on his face. "But I have never been unjust to my wife and children," Dev added. "Wife... children..." Ranjana looked at him, a smile playing on her lips. After Ranjana left Dev's life, he had made numerous attempts to forget her, but he had ultimately failed. He had pushed Ranjana's love to a corner of his heart and succumbed to his father's pressure to marry a good and beautiful woman.
