The chase
I am sorry I am a bit late but here's the next part. Do leave your comments. =)
Three months had elapsed yet the memory of the night was still entact. Fresh as though it was only yesterday.Jeet practically dreamt of that mysterious lady every night, waking with a yearning in his heart. He actually longed to see her again but that really was a far fetched thought. And this was the cause of his distress
These three months had seen a lot of changes take over Jeet. He could no longer get back to the normal of his.He felt his void increase.And he could find only one solution to it.
He immersed himself in his work.Undertook daring projects. Began neglecting his family's concern. Tried fighting those memories and ended up more frustrated and angered.Jeet was surprised at the turn of events. He used to think quite high of himself, that he could never lose control of his emotions.But that night had somehow changed the equations.
Every solemn night used to bring back the memories surroung that chiseled figure and the eloquent and enticing yes. Her faint smile and queer thoughts replayed itself in his mind adding to his miserable life.
"You should probably turn up" said Rano breaking Jeet's train of thoughts."No its all right. I have some work to finish. You go grab your share of good night sleep" Jeet said shrugging off his wife's concern and got up tracing his path to his study.
Rano felt devastated. She thought the work pressure had taken a toll on him but she was far from reality.And so was everyone. If only they knew...
Jeet entered his study, and with a loud bang shut letting his anger out on a fragile door frame.He walked briskly to his elizabethian chair and then threw himself on it.Opening the cabinet on his left, he took out his diary and opening it he found a sovenier. A reminder that the encounter was real and the departure was painful.
He looked at it longingly. Carefull enough not to break it, he picked it up and tried remembering every little details of that lady. Sighing in pain he kept th rose aside and began pouring his heart out in the pages that remained oblivious to all.
"Life has a cruel sense of humour. It gives you the thing you always longed for at one moment and then snatches it away in the next. I had never complained of my misery to anyone nor did I sulk about it. I simply accepted all that came my way. Then why did life meddle with my affairs ?
I agree that I longed for the one I could love, for the one I could embrace but never did I find myself this restless or this agitated. Why did she come when she was not here to stay ? Why entice me when there is no turning back from the spell ? Why keep me yearning for something that can never be mine ?
These three months have been pure hell for me. My void seems to be increasing; as though a hole has been punched through my chest baring it of my heart. As though my heart has been ripped off and stabbed again and again. The ever increasing pain is actually killing me.
I feel like a cheat now. My thoughts have drowned themselves in memories of that lady at a time when I should be with Rano. Hope she understands...but can she ? Can anyone ? I've always felt a little out of place, looking for reasons to make me feel better. But I've always failed at that. Can't the pain subside...just fo once ?
At times it feels as though she was a dream that sublimed.
A chase that has no end or maybe end of lifelong chase.
Will I ever find her again ?
Will I ?
I need my answers... "
With this he threw his pain down and resting his head on the desk made up his mind. He would find her and demand answers to the questions that kept probing. He knew what he had to do. He knew the solution and all he had to do was to reach out to it.
