Chapter 4 Haunted Memories

Maan's last words travelled in her mind zillions of times. The reality of her teenage memory flashed in front of her as many number of times as she remembered his last words. She was trying to be away from this past. She tried to escape from this memory. In fact she'd almost buried it in her heart where nobody could reach out. Today somehow she wasn't able to control the ajar door of her heart. That tightly closed corner of her heart swung open.

She'd a cousin sister, who was ten years older than her, though age difference didn't matter. They were like sisters. Her cousin sister, Priya, always helped her with everything. Priya cared for her so much that whenever Geet was with Priya, she could forget entire world and she could play with her. She was her teacher, her friend, her shoulder to cry, her everything.

Geet had always supported her with everything, Priya was in love with someone and Geet always helped her to sneak out from the house. Geet used to share all school stories with her and Priya used to share college stories with her. There was a high drama when Priya's family came to know about her love. It was a battle like Mahabharata in her house but eventually everybody had accepted Priya's love and she'd a grand wedding. She got wedded to her love.

Geet was lonely after Priya's wedding. She didn't have more friends to share her life. She discovered what loneliness was. There was a lot of similarity between her past and present. She was afraid of loneliness but today again she was standing at the door of solitude. She learned to be happy by knowing that Priya must be happy with her new life. Geet missed her blabber, her pranks, her gossips, her support, her advice. Geet smiled whenever she remembered Priya's jabbering. Practically Geet couldn't spend a single day without her blithering. Therefore, she made sure to call her daily. In reward, Priya also called her whenever she could sneak out from her husband. They used to talk for hours and Geet was Priya's backbone whenever Priya wanted to complain about her husband and wanted some advice. It was all good though. Those matters were small that it didn't matter. They used to go to shopping together, eat together even after Priya's marriage though of course not as many times as in past.

One day something happened, and Geet got the heart wrenching silence from Priya. It was completely opposite of typical Priya's behavior. Geet tried to intrude but she couldn't get any answer. It was completely strange. Priya whose mouth was always filled with zillions of words, today there was not a single word garlanded to her mouth. Once whose eyes were filled with happiness, and liveliness, today it was like the ocean of darkness.

Priya stopped calling her and stopped meeting her. Geet couldn't tolerate it. She wanted to know the reason. She wanted to find out. She visited her but Geet couldn't detect any answers.

Geet sensed something wrong in her life but Priya never answered anything to Geet's questions. Geet tried to gauge information from her using different ways but Geet never got successful in it. She didn't know what was stopping Priya to answer. Geet was worried for her. After two years of her marriage, Priya got divorced and she came back to her family. It was a biggest shock for Geet, she couldn't believe it. Priya was married to her love then what could go wrong.

Geet tried to cheer her up but it was in vain. Geet tried to find out the reason behind her broken marriage but Priya never told her anything. Her broken marriage was a big mystery. Priya didn't tell the reason behind her broken marriage to anyone. Geet lost the respect for love and Geet was afraid of love after watching Priya in pain. Watching Priya suffering was a big punishment for Geet. After all, she was her sister; Geet couldn't watch her sister in pain. She tried everything to keep her happy, but God had made some other plan for her.

After a year of divorce, Priya committed a suicide. Priya couldn't recover from her broken marriage and her broken love. Geet cried for months after Priya's death. She decided not to fall in love; she lost the respect for love marriage. Geet had seen her sister in the haunted world of love, the agonize world of love, Geet couldn't wish to enter into the same shoes. Geet hated love marriage after this incident. She knew that nobody could achieve anything from love. The only emotion love could give was suffering and torture.

Geet couldn't forget the sad wrinkled face of Priya. She was young but pain and suffering had snatched away her vigor. She was no more than a clenched soul. Like a stone with no feelings left in her heart to cry for. The inexplicable fear on Priya's face, the suffering in her eyes, and longing in her voice was so deep that Geet couldn't recover from it.

These nightmares still suffocated Geet many times in sleep. It didn't matter how hard she tried but she lost the respect for love. Even though Geet had seen few successful love marriages but Priya's strange behavior and gloomy face had never left Geet's heart. Hence whenever Geet thought to fall for someone, new feelings were never able to reach to the inner side of her, beneath the skin, hidden somewhere. Whenever she heard any knock on that door, she pushed those feelings further inside where nobody could swing. There was nothing left in her squashed heart.

Over last few years, she overcame her past in a worldly perceived way, only she knew that she was still choked up with those emotions and nightmares.

She didn't realize when she fell in love. The one emotion which she was afraid of, the one world which she never wanted to enter now became her life. She couldn't believe that she was also the victim of God's gift, the gift to forget the past or to recover from the past. She overcame her past especially when she fell in love. She forgot everything, about Priya, about her own decision to not to fall in love, and she somersaulted in the abstracted world of love.

She committed a big mistake of her life by falling in love

Today, her past again haunted her and she regretted the day she fell in love with Maan.
