Points to remember:
1. This may be long
2. It may be boring
3. You’re already warned…please remember and be ready with a bottle of ice water.
Those who read it drop your valuable comments.
Here i am, with my lifeless body, living just for the sake of living. I’m going to see him. Yes, after 3 long years…i am going to meet him. Once he was my everything, but now he is my past, a bitter past or a beautiful memory…i don’t know what to say. I am not only going to meet him. I am going to the place which was once my heaven. Yeah, it was me who left him. But that cannot falsify the statement that my heart beats for him. Pity, its mine but beats for him. In this 3 yrs many things changed, but my love for him never changes.
I peep out the window to get out of my thoughts. The endless trail of clouds, greet me with their smile, or rather I must say, laughing at me, at my fate.
“Fasten your seatbelts. We are going to land” said a digitised voice. I slowly take the seat belt, rubbing it…feeling its warmth. I fastened it and sat with my head rested at the headboard. This only reminded me of his care.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
“Common Pragya, you are afraid just for this 1 hour travel…see i am with you na.”
“That is my fear Abhishek” i said with a small smile but he clearly understood that i was just changing the topic.
He fastened my seat belt. I saw him lovingly. The flight was about to take off. He clutched my hands in an assuring way. The flight took off. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
“Is there a problem, madam?” asked the air hostess with a smile.
I had flown into past, and didn’t even realise that the flight had landed.
I nodded in a no, took my luggage and got down. I went straight to the hospital, to her room.
There was my sister, lying in her bed, with her cute little daughter lying next to her. My sister wished me “belated happy birthday my dear sis. Hope you got my gift.”
“Yeah bulbul, this is the best gift of my life. I have got a big promotion, she hugged Bulbul and her daughter.” “Where is your Patidev?”
“Here i am di” said Purab with a smile.
He was not there. My eyes searched for him. “He was out for a meeting di. He wud be on his way”. He didn’t return for a day.
Bulbul was discharged and we went to our home, Not our home anymore…his home.
We were on our way and Abhi had called Purab and said he wud reach our home directly. My heart started roaming.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I and bulbul, Purab and he were all a family. My parents died when we were out for a trip. After that, we shifted to the Mehra mansion. Abhi’s Dadi was the one who took care of us. We grew together and our love…sorry my love grew with us. But Abhi’s Dadi too left us when we were all in our college. We were wealthy enough that we had a big mansion for us and our own business. Abhi and Purab worked hard, passed in distinctions, and took over the business. Dadi was the one who managed all the business single handed. How much she might have struggled to keep it going after Abhi and Purab’s parents died? We felt proud of her. I and Bulbul owe a lot to her and her family. How can i forget it?
After the year, when they took over the business, i and Bulbul had completed our college. We no more wanted to be a burden for them, but they insisted us to stay. I started my carrier as a fashion designer, and bulbul started working in an MNC. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Purab and bulbul dropped me in the home saying they were going for temple and as i will be tired i had to stay in the home.
I entered just to see him sitting on the living room couch. I and abhi were left alone. A killing silence prevailed. Almost an hour passed. See, I had seen him after 3 yrs and he didn’t even tell me a hi.
A lot of thoughts raced within me. I couldn’t control and finally i broke the silence “didn’t you find someone for you?” (I didn’t even tell him a hi)
I knew, if i asked him why aren’t you married, he would tell that he didn’t find anyone, that’s why…this kind of question.
“Nope, i didn’t”. Wow what a reply.
“Common abhi, move on. Don’t stick on to her. You have to lead a settled life. Bulbul said me that she left you for a rich man.”
“I never loved her. I am not feeling bad for her. She mistook me and pushed you to this position. If that hadn’t happened…” tears started flowing from his eyes. I immediately got up and wiped his tears. He hugged me holding my waist and cried.
Now i understand why bulbul didn’t turn up yet. She knew i am the only person who can soothe him up. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
“Here comes our new but creative, inexperienced but talented and the growing designer, and stylist Miss. Pragya Arora”.
There enters a girl, in black. She is none other than our gorgeous stunning Pragya (imagine her wearing madhurima’s dress in KKB). She waves her hands to guests and audience.
“Thank you so much for your support guys. I wish to dedicate my success to my parents, my dadi, my dear Abhi, my sister, and Purab. They are the reason for my present position. If they are not here, Pragya is not here. I also thank personally, my models who have agreed and cooperated with me. I don’t have anything else to say. Keep loving and keep supporting.” She left the stage.
Later, in the press meet…
Reporter: “Mam they say that you got help from the leading actor Sohail, who had personally supported you. What is the link mam?”
Pragya: He is my good friend and he suggested me a few models as, I had worked with him already.
R: What about the leading business man Abhi? Is he also your friend or…?
P: i have already said (a bit angry). We are all a family. We live in the same house and work as partners. We enjoy each others’ company. Don’t think i am too frank. I don’t wish any one talking ill about my Abhi. (Too much possessive)
The press meet got over after few random questions. All the while Abhi was staring her lovingly. Pragya’s POV, “what i said is not true. But i don’t want to break our beau. bond with my love.” _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
“I want to ask you, why did you leave me and go? Even now u retuned just to see Bulbul. Didn’t you even think of me?” he was still hugging me and crying.
“I don’t want to talk about it now”
“Tell me Pragya, you will not know…I was literally dying here”
Just then the bell rang.
We composed ourselves. I went and opened the door.
Purab and Bulbul came back. We ate our supper and parted to our rooms after playing a while with our new family member. It was about 11, when i heard a knock at the door.
“Oh, bulbul didn’t you sleee…what are u doing here Abhishek?”
“I brought milk for you, i mixed honey also.” You still remember Abhi, i thought. “Thanks” he didn’t move. “Come in” he walked in.
I started drinking, he waited till i finished and asked “you didn’t tell me the answer yet.” _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Abhi was sitting in his room. He was wearing a sherwani in blue with gold decors. He was very happy but a bit tensed too.
Pragya was crying in her room. She wept silently.
She went through…
“See Pragya, Abhi is marrying you just for the sake of marrying. You’ll not know how difficult he feels to marry you”
“But i never forced him to marry me. It was he who asked me to marry me.”
“Stop talking Pragya. He called me and i recorded it. Listen”
“Tanu, you know…i can never even think of marrying. You also know right, I am in love. So stop talking about my marriage.”
“He said this before agreeing for your marriage, but he had no choice. Since Sohail died 3 days ago, he agreed to marry you, so that your marriage won’t stop.”
“No, I mean, Ho…”
“Pragya, don’t you understand? He said he is in love. He is in love with me. That’s why he didn’t want me talk about you”

Pragya got up with a bold face.
After sometime, someone knocked the door, “Pragya are you ready?” It was bulbul.
No reply. “Pragya di”. No reply again. She slightly opened the door and just found it unlocked. None were there in the room. “Bhai, Purab…di is missing. Abhi and Purab ran to the room. They searched her.
After a few minutes, Abhi found that there was a letter in her room…
“I am leaving. Don’t worry, I’m fine and nothing will happen to me. I will surely come back some day.
Yours,
Pragya.” _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
“I left to forget about it and you are asking about it again.”
“You will not know what happened after you left. I searched for you everywhere. For 2 years, i was searching for you madly. One day you called Bulbul, gave her your no. And asked not to tell to anyone. Even Purab was in touch with you. But me, you left me. Just when i was in car going for a meeting, Purab informed about bulbul’s delivery and ‘your arrival’. Didn’t you even get a thought of me?” he said cupping my face.
I expected that he would violently attack me for what i did, but he was so tender and so broken.
Tears started flowing from my eyes. “How can I not think of you abhi? You are and will always be my life. (Mention to Maya di’s ff, i really love it a lot) “I didn’t want you to force myself on you. That’s why i left from here. I know how difficult it would be to accept someone whom you never love”
“Stop it, damn it.” Oops, i was wrong.
“Why do you jump into conclusions, always? Now tell me, why did you leave that day Idiot?
“Abhi, i know everything. You yourself confessed your love.” I started weeping.
“Shut up, you duffer. First tell me why you agreed to marry that Sohail.”
“Everyone was happy with that proposal. That’s why.”
“Not everyone….Ok leave that. Now tell me why you left.”
I narrated everything.
He was taken aback. He stood still.
“He hugged me saying it was my entire fault. You took it wrong. She spoke with me abt her marriage, that i should marry her. I clearly said her that i want to live only with Pragya. She used that phone call to trap you. She wanted to marry me just for my money. I never loved that chudail. I was ready to marry you coz i wanted to not because of circumstances. I know you too wish the same but when you accepted Sohail’s proposal, i hid myself so that you can be happy. But only now i can understand in what position you where in. Tanu loved my money and not me. She did this so that i would stop marrying you. You won’t know, i never left the room for almost a week after you left. After a month i came to know that it was Tanu who did this all this but when i confronted her, she coolly left from Mumbai saying she is married to Nikhil.”
I started weeping. I thought how foolish i was…unable to understand my love, Abhi. He was always there for me but i made his life miserable. I wasted three years of my happy life just because of my misunderstanding. If i had sorted it out, we would also be having a cute baby now. We would have been a complete family. It was all my fault.
“I know what you are thinking. It was not your fault. It was our destiny. If it is written that we have to unite now, what is the problem? We can live our life in such a way that those three years become nothing. We live together for 100 long years and even more.”
“she said me that she would take care of you. I never thought that she was lying. Only when she assured me that she will be there for you, i left the place.”
I hugged him again. I wished, let time stand still now. Then i broke the hug and started to say…
But before i could say anything, he took my lips into his. It was a slow and shallow kiss that only showed his love for me, it was full of love and respect, no lust. We broke the kiss. I couldn’t stand there anymore and i left to the balcony. Abhi came behind me. I laid my head on his chest and stood hugging him. Just then we saw a shooting star.
“What did you wish, fuggi?”
“The same as you, fitness freak”…“OK, OK i wished we could always be like this aur thum”
“Let me find my happiness in you, let u find your happiness in me and let us find our happiness in us”
Oh, what is needed more for me? This is enough for me. He has given me more than what i had wanted. I was longing for this and today i feel like my heaven is back.
We never said I love you to each other and what is the need? We didn’t feel the need to. Our hearts beat the same and our eyes tell the same. His eyes give me all i want. I will not complain for what our mouths didn’t tell. Our love is beyond words, deep and pure.
THE END
OK. 1, 2, 3…start. U can throw tomatoes, rotten eggs and what not. Please don’t throw stone guys.
