Chapter 5 Part A
Gunjan " Hello dear readers on IF forum. Its such a pleasure to meet you all. Waise aaj mai aap sabse apni zindagi ki sabse badi khushi baantne jaa rahi hoon. Aaj mere zindagi me sapnon ka ek naya rang ubhar ke aaya hai. Mai ek aise insaan ke rang me rang chuki hun jiske dil ka aaina, ek pyar ka jharaokaha hai, ek jhalak jiski kabhi kaafi hi nahi hoti, uske dil ke taar ka har ek connection jaise ki seedha mere dil se juda ho, uski zubaan bolti kuch hai magar uski nigahen bayaan karti kuch aur hi hai. Uska dimaag jis sach se bhagta hai uka dil wahi sachai uske chere pe bayaan karta hai. Haan yeh sach hai woh pyaar bayan karna nahi jaanta, magar usse bhi bada sach yeh hai ki woh pyar sirf dena jaanta hai.
Samrat's love is like no love u wud have even seen. He loves till ur eyes turn misty, he loves as if there's no tomorrow, he loves as if u r the only one in the world, he loves as if nothing else matters to him, he loves as if now is the only time left out. He loves as if that the only thing he's capable of. He loves like as if one life can never be enuf. Most of all he loves like this, believing he does'nt deserve anything in return and that's why his love is the most special in this whole world.
Gunjan continues A heart that's hurting as if it cannot break into anymore pieces, a mouth that spits words as if darts of poison would look trivial, but a love blooms inside his soul ,whose fragrance reaches out even before any can sniff it, ensures none of the people for whom cares are ever in pain and gives his love unconditionally just like an invisible angel coz he doesn't expect you to acknowledge or return it whole heartedly. A soul that loves so selflessly even if its heart is crying out timelessly, is a soul that 's to be cherished for life beyond eternity
Gunjan "Aap hi log batayi agar aisa insaan jo nafrat ki chadar ode pyar ka toofan barsaaye , us insaan se aap kab tak apne dil de darwazon ko bahca payenge, dil ki deewaron ko toh phir bhi dimaag zanzeer ki tarah sakt banale magar rooh ki dehleez ko par kar jab uska pyar sheetal jal ki tarah fahal jaaye to use aap kaise rok sakte hain"
Gunjan Uska pyar paana toh doosri baat magar usse pyar karna hi ek vardaan hai. Uske kareeb har pal rahna ki ek shaan hai. Maine apne dil ko bahut samjhaya magar rooh pe meri baton ka koi asar nahi hua, who to uski ore keeche chala gaya. When my soul coul not resist him where did my heart n mind have a chance. I know its not going to be easy to find out whether he loves me as unconditionally as I do him. Though everyone in the gang believes I have brought changes in him where everyone one of them and others failed but is that proof enough for the fact that he feels atelast 0.1 % of what I feel for him?
Gunjan "Well I would not know unless I try and am gonna try like my life depends on it for survival coz only a fool would let go of a love of a lifetime like this. I know its gonna be an uphill task what with his wall shielding him n on top of it his arrogant attitude which wud rile me up within minutes n burn my anger like boiling point of lav'..oh god'..is this possible'.that I cud love a person so much that I can give my life for him n next minute hate the person so much but the love of his real always supersedes his artificial persona and I can only pray and hope that am able to convince him to shed this persona with my love once n for all."
Gunjan "Hope all of u r with me in this. I know u guys are coz it can be no other ways right?"😃
Gunjan "Well just to let u know the depth of my intentions, one thing I have realized is that I cannot bring him around in my way alone, coz my love can help him to leave the cloak of his wall but I have to go his way to help him break the wall completely. There's this saying right If the Mountain cannot go to Mohammed then Mohammed will have to go to the mountain, well in my case it's a lil twisted though if Mohammed cannot go to the mountain , mountain will go the Mohammed. After all when samrat put his mind to something he can be no less than a mountain😆
Gunjan "God only can help me conquer this mountain n conquer it I will coz I feel it in my bones that am borne to share this life with him and no one else. I know am undertaking path that clearly comes with warning and danger signs but if u care u better take the dare. I care for him much more than the words can ever do justice. You might all wonder that how can I love an individual so mindlessly whom I have met only a week ago, but that's not true. I have known his physical presence a week ago but mentally a part of him became a part of me right from the time my di started confiding about this lovable childlike version of the adult he has become of, after every trip of hers to Mumbai. The more I heard the more I became curious about him, I was amazed how a guy cud be so hard like the rigid broken surface of d ravines on the outside and so soft n smooth like the rivers flowing between these ravines on the inside.(not sure if my geography is right 😆)
Gunjan "Even then I was in two mind whether he's for real who acts like an invisible god to others behind their back but spurns them on their face when they want a piece of his heart
Gunjan "Mujhe pata hai ki yeh koi aasan kaam nahi hai aur mai yeh bhi jaanti hun ki is me mera dil tootke chana choor ho sakta hai, magar who dard us dard se bahtar hoga jo mai har din mehsoos karoong if I fail to even fight for the happiness that I feel I deserve. "
Who zindagi kya jisme koi manzil nahi
who pyar kya jisme tere dil ka sahil nahi
who kasthi kya jiska kinara tera dil ka dwar nahi
who kashmakash kya jisme tere pyar ke toofano sa kahar nahi
woh shitij kya jiske anth me tu mera nahi
Scene shift to samrat
Samrat is trying to run away, he's trying to escape the ball of fire which is chasing him. He knows this time there's no escape. He knew this time the flames would engulf him and there would be no tomorrow. He was finally caught in the worst possible flame and he wanted to see only one face before the flames engulf him forever. Before this nightmare ends n ashes cover his body. He wanted only one thought with him when he finally gave up the fight. He wanted only person's words to sooth him when he was fighting his last moments. He wanted to speak only one word if his voice had been left with any power "Chashmish"
The shriek reeks throughout the guest house. It was a surprise that Mayank could not hear him or may be had he gone for his morning walk
Samrat wakes up with the very name he was fearful of ever not being able to say again'.He wonders "am I thankful that this was just a nightmare or should I worry its d indication of more nightmares coming my way'..I have to be careful. I cannot handle chahsmish like the way I have done the other girls. She deserves much much more, but Can I give her that 'Dude, what the hell are u thinking?😲....have u lost ur mind or yesterday did flame smelt ur brain as well😕'..tu aise baaten soch bhi kaise sakta hai'.dotn u know u can never love anyone?
Samrat shouts in ager to his conscious mind as if it was another human being
Samrat "I know, am the chosen one, who cannot love, who can only hurt, who cannot wish , who cannot ask, who cannot expect,in short who cannot live
Samrat "I know am destined to be a loser even if I try n u don't have to remind me of my misfortune, as if u cud allow me ever forget it'.the great samrat'.in his real life d totally not so great'.n a perfect opposite of his name samrat'..the real beggar who can't even beg for what his heart wants'.after all who's listening to him n even if someone listens by mistake they need not take an effort coz even if by chance its granted to me, am bound to lose it only before I can even rejoice in my wish being fulfilled.No there was no point in believing in the unbelievable and wanting the impossible n chashmish was just that to him, she was too good and too beautiful that a heart like his can never match n dream to make her his'..no he will not go there'..he knew yesterday and the nightmare of this morning had forced him to wake up to facts. '.
Samrat thinks he cannot hide under the tag of friendship when his heart was craving n feeling some other things'.he knew he cannot deny the attraction he felt for her anymore but attraction was all it ever going to be , if he was sane enough and smart enuf to stay away from further heartbreaks and this time he knew he would not be able to recover if he lost it'.."so I will be careful'.i will stay away from her and be cool and if situations force us to meet otherwise '.act like a polite friend to her"
Samrat "Yes that's the best thing I cud do for her and for myself and when I have done it before it shud not be anything new for me. He imme remembers the tear filled face of the neetha 'before he can stop his mind from going there, his face is crowded with the tears of guilt, tears of what if, tears of how could this happen? n within moments that last meeting was framing in his mind so clearly n his throat was choking just on remembering all about her'.the last time he had seen her'..
Samrat thinks "the innocent beauty of her face turned ghost white , the thin veil of hope dying ever so slowly in her eyes, the mist of emotions melting n making way for d disastrous reality to sink in her, her eyes crying out to him to stop her just this once, her tears willing him to stop the harsh flow of words which were being hurled her way , her heart waiting for some signal to say this was all not true, her hope sliding away but unable to give way to pain and fear, just holding on as if extending the moment cud change the outcome forever'.n it did change forever'.not for just her but for him as well'as the face was fading away, it was as if he was back in that time n moment 'he was raising his hand in present as if he could somehow stop her , somehow make her understand she had got it all wrong, somehow tell her this was not supposed to end like this, as if he needed a moment just to explain it all, as if one gesture n she wud come n back'n begging aloud "neetha pls come back'..tumhe meri kasam'.bas ek baar mere liye wapas aa jao'.i swear I will make it alright, I will explain everything'.but pls give me a chance,'.just one chance,,'.plsssss plsssssss neethaaaaaaa come back dammint'.y wont u listen to me'.cant u give me a bloody one chance'..plsss y do u have to do this"'.but already her ghostlike white face was going into oblivion, her hands were being snatched away before he cud reach out, her eyes were closing to the pain before he cud call out, her hope was dying away even before life got to her
Samrat's heart cries in a wail "am sorryyyyy neetha'.for d nth time'.am sorry'.can u hear me'.can u feel my pain'.can u forgive me''am so very sorryyyyy'.neetha wat wud not I do get this chance to make it right for u''neetha'pleeezzzz forgive'.show me some sign u r listening to me'.show me some hope that all is not lost'.pls god r u listening'.pleez show me some way'..god neetha'.plsss neetha
''..alas ''but reality was totally different, he cud not do anything now'.he cudnt do anything for the past few years'.he was left to live in this guilt n hate for himself,'.he jolly well didn't deserve any love '.he was the prisoner of fate for whom misery was the only thing left and never in small bouts'..
Samrat says aloud "no" as if coming out of the nightmare of past finally , unaware of the tears that have flooded n drenched in his face while his mind was busy reliving the agonies of past'."no" this time he mouths it more vehemently'.i cant let anything to happen chahsmish'.."no" this time the shriek was even louder as if some bad turn was going to catch up with chashmish'.."no'.mai aisa kuch hone nahi dunga'..i will not allow fate to play the same games with chahsmish'..chahsmish will not become a victim like neetha becoz of me'..nahi''mai aisa kuch kabhi hone nahi doonga''.i will protect her by staying away from her'..i don't deserve her, she doesn't deserve this''no'.i will not''I will not"
"samrat'.sambhalo'.samrat'kya kar rahe ho'..look up" samrat" Mayank's voice finally breaks the nightmare of multitude magintitude for samrat
Mayank "yeh kya kar rahe the tum. tumhara haath khoon se lathpath'.hai'..have u lost ur mind'.yeh tumhe kya ho gaya hai"
Samrat realizes in his emotional turmoil, he had hit his hand against the glass table lying next to his bed. He could still not feel the pain in his hand as he was still enmeshed in the pain of his past which had manacled all his happiness and the key had been thrown in some deep sea, d key embedded somewhere below d mountain of misery reserved by fate for him that no one'.no once cud retrieve it even if they wished to release him from these shackles. Yes that was his destiny, forget about wanting he cud not even dream about ever achieving happiness
Mayank could not understand what was flowing fatser his tears or his blood. Use yeh samajh nahi aa rahi tha kis ka dard woh pehle theek kare, uske dil ka chot jo uski aankhon se beh raha tha ya uske hathon ki chot jissee khoon bahe jaa raha tha
Mayank knew something was troubling him coz as soon as he entered the guest house, he could hear a loud wail but the name "neetha" didn't make any sense to him. He thought imme maybe benji should know who that is n he knew he heard chashmish n wondered if this neetha was the same girl. But now was not the time to dwell. He immediately shook samrat to bring him out of the dark abyss he seemed to have landed himself into. "Samrat smbhalo apne aap ko"'..dekho kitna khoon bah gaya hai'.kya hogaya hai tumhe'..pls wake up'.look at what you have done to yourself''dont u care even one bit whats it doing to ur hand"
Samrat seemed to have woken up to the only word that surpassed the walls of dark cloud engulfing his brain n heart "care" . Yes that was the biggest enemy if he ever had one. He didn't know how to care he didn't know what was it care for others feelings, others emotions, he didn't care enuf and that's why he was suffering n neetha was free'..noooo he cant go there, he had to be strong,,'he had to erect the walls which chashmish had managed to temporarily break in, he had to do it for his friends mayank and nupur , they didn't deserve this burden, this baggage he was carrying. He had to do it for his firnds benji and dia who had saved him from a disastrous fate yest. He was wishing in his mind for a min would it have been better if it all had ended yest for him. Then imme a peaceful face crops into his mind n he shuts his eyes n mind as if pushing it away for one last time this morning. She didn't deserve it. She cannot be sacrificed like'."no stop it" he shouted silently but vehemently in his mind
Samrat "am ok mayank'.woh bas'who kal raat ka'woh thoda'.kal ke episode ko sochke '.woh dia ke 'liye 'woh"
Mayank understanding that samrat was covering up for something else didn't prod him "its ok samrat mai samajh sakta hun'mai tumhari jagah hota toh mai bhi itna hi disturbed hota'chalo tum haath wash karke aao, bahut khoon beh gaya hai , mai first aid box leke aata hoon"
Samrat knew yest he had resolved that he cant let go off her just as yet but this morning's rude wake up call cured him of his childish desire to hold on to the flicker of hope she had ignited in his heart. While washing his hand, samrat was mentally washing the last bit of so called feelings trying to break free from bondage they were being sentenced to but samrat's resolve was stronger this time as sheer as a rock, totally unmovable
