SWARON OS : some mistakes cost a lifetime - Page 2

The last one month has been hell for swayam... The project with the new company forced him to work with Sharon and siddhanth... And each passing second have been a little bit worse that hell...

He had seen Sharon happy... Happier than where he had left her... whenever he had seen siddhanth making her smile , he went through stinging pain... Pain of the guilt that he was not the reason behind her smile...

And this has been worst for him... he had never felt so shallow in his life... Scratch that... He had felt that ... When he had seen Sharon leave from his life because of his mistake... And there she went ... Leaving her footprints on his heart...

Love is like walking on wet cement... The more time passes the more strong it becomes... the more harder it becomes to leave... and even if you leave... your can't go without leaving your footprints...

He had felt so shallow , to feel bad when siddhanth made her laugh... this made him recognize the selfish swayam hidden inside him... He had never faced him before...

And in this one month , swayam couldn't even look into her eyes...forget about saying sorry... He could have said sorry to her if he would have committed a mistake...but this time it was a crime... A sinful crime...

Think twice before leaving a place in someones heart...coz it might be painful to realize how much you miss that place when you decide to go back n find some one else has taken it...

And here he was sitting on the edge of the cliff looking at the setting sun... his full sleeve formal shirt folded till the elbow...coat hung on the shoulder ...

The evening sun was a huge red ball without any blaze...defeated...exactly like him...it soothed his eyes...

"ego right????" he heard a voice... her voice... Even if in the darkest corner of the world he would never fail to recognize it... the voice which visited him in each of his dream and haunted him in each of his nightmare...

He looked back to see her standing there...looking ethereal as always under the orange glow of the sun...

And then averted his gaze back to the horizon... He felt her sitting beside him...

"I didn't get my answer...its ego right????" she asked not looking at her...

"as in???" he looked down at his lap...

"as in... you want to say sorry... but you didn't... because of your ego..." She looked straight at him...

"who said I wanted to...??? I didn't... a sorry can't be said for a crime..." He whispered...

"true..." she had nothing else to say...

A silence filled the air...

"but you do feel bad right???? Seeing me with sid..." more than a question it was a statement...

"depends on what answer you want to hear..." he looked at her...

" I don't want any answer... it was more or less a fact..." She replied nonchalantly

He looked back into the sky... the sun was almost behind clif... but a golden orange hue still painted the twilight sky...

"he is my brother in law... riddhima's husband..." she whispered... swayam looked at her with a shocked expression...

Sharon smiled at him...

"and you know what... you are still the same stupid hopeless swayam..." she chuckled... he gave her a faint smile...

"you don't love me Sharon... you loved a fictitious swayam... the one you imagined me to be was not me...and the one you fell in love with was an imagination... and it was not me..."

After he finished , he heard reply...

"love doesn't always happens to strengthen our beliefs... sometimes it happens to destroy all our previous beliefs and faith and gives us a chance to re look at our conclusions..."

Sharon saw a tear trickle down swayam's face...

"whatever you did back then was your mistake...but not the worst one... and I don't want to do it now..."

Seeing swayam's perplexed eyes she decided to elaborate...

" the worst mistake is walking away from the person who actually stood there and waited for you..." swayam again looked at her and she completed what was left unfinished years back... " like you did..."
