Torn Apart
PART-1
"This blast has left everyone in a great despair as today we lost one of our most prominent police officers, ACP Riya Roy Kapoor", the news reporter says showing some pictures of the blast site. Next I hear the screams of my friends and of him-my only family.
I wake up in cold perspiration and curse my luck- my destiny as This memory haunts me not because it contains news of my death but just because I saw them cry and accuse themselves for all this. Sometimes I can't understand - understand why not this part of my memory leaves me alone, as I am. Why it always tries to remind me of who I was and where I actually belong.
As I sit upright on the bed and rest my head on the head rest, I see my friend sorry my only friend come and sit beside me on bed. Though in everyday life, a friend is a person who knows you in and out but my life as I said before is one of its own kind and in this odd life of mine Naina is a pillar of strength. Though she doesn't know much of me or my past but still every time I feel alone and devastated I find her beside me no matter what.
"Hey, you okay?" she asked, worry lines clearly visible on her face.
I gave a faint smile. She slides her palm in mine and tightens the grip assuring that she will be always there.
"Nightmare?"She asked
I nodded. And she continued "why don't you go out for a walk, I know it's not the right time" she said gesturing towards the window "but maybe you will feel better".
Usually I don't take advices but this one seems of no harm if taken. I looked out of the window and became conscious that she was right, it was nearly dawn and an odd time to go out but it didn't matter what time of day it was, as I was too ravaged inside to care, I just needed to go out in fresh air to bring some relief to my old scares .So I quickly took a bath and grabbed my overcoat and set out for a walk .
As I closed the door behind me, a gush of cold air gripped me on all sides and I tightened my grip on the coat and shook it closer to me after all it was winter and cold was inevitalble.
Each step of mine echoed as I walked through the streets of London. It was so calm and to some extend it soothed out my turmoil for a while, on either side of the road were houses lined up and separated by a fence, if mine would have been a normal life I would have loved to live in this locality but alas! It's not. And with this thought I realize how much I wanted to change my life, how much I missed them and how much I desired to see them and have them back in my life but I know it's not possible at least not now when I don't have any evidence of proving myself right and getting out of here.
I pushed these thoughts at the back of my mind and entered the gates of the park, all the trees in there had shed their leaves and they looked so bare unlike my life which even to me was a big confusion. I found myself a bench facing east so that I see the sun rising and each sunrise brings a new hope that someday a sun would also rise up in my life and rekindle my identity-my own identity as Riya..Riya Roy Kapoor and not as Raina but for this world Riya is dead and all that is alive is Raina.
Not only my identity has changed but my existence has also changed and all my life has turned upside down.
It scares me even if I share it to myself but in the deepest of corners I know it's the truth and truths make way to come out even if they are hidden behind a thousand walls. My legs tremble and become numb as I make myself believe that Riya lives in me and...
Yes I... I am Riya Roy Kapoor, who-who faked her own death.
