As they both reached the table the lady turned around and maan shook his hand with her "hi maan"
"hii" maan said.
Geet on the other side was shocked seeing the lady who is standing infront of her smiling at maan.
Maan and she turned to geet who is looking at her with her jaw dropped down.
"geet" she spoke.
But the only thing came out of geet is "SHALINI!!!!!!!!"
Shalini instantly hugged geet. Geet stood rooted to the floor. After few minutes geet hugged her back. They stayed there like that for few minutes with their eyes closed.
Finally they parted only to see their both eyes wet.
They smiled a each other seeing their teary eyes.
"I never thought that u will leave me and go" geet said.
Shalini "even I never thought u can part from ur friends"
This made geet realize what shalini did is nothing but what geet did.
"geet lets move" maan said.
Geet looked at him confused.
"to my flat geet" shalini said understanding her confused look. She dint speak anything and all the three left the caf. Maan and geet sat in his car while shalini settled her self in her car and they drove to shalini's flat.
They entered the flat and maan and geet both sat in the sofa's in the living room while shalini went in the kitchen "give me few minutes...i will prepare coffee for u"
"she doesn't take coffee" maan said instantly.
"he only takes black coffee" geet said almost along with maan.
Both looked at each other while shalini looked at them from the kitchen and smiled happiliy for them.
"geet are u still drinking that chocolate milk???" shalini giggled.
"no...now she is big na...so she takes hot chocolate" maan chuckled.
"maan" geet waked his arm.
"I am saying the truth geet" maan smiled.
Shalini smiled at them as she started to boil the milk.
Geet slowly stood and went into the kitchen.
"arey geet go and sit I will prepare the both in few minutes" shalini spke seeing her coming.
"nahi...wo...actually...he takes only black coffee...aur..." geet said turning pink.
"I know how to prepare black coffee geet" shalini chucked.
"nahi meri matlab wo nahi" geet tried to say instantly.
"ohhh...it seems that he like black coffee made by U" shalini smiled.
Geet turned all pinky and went near the counter and started preparing the coffee for maan.
Shalini saw geet preparing the coffee smiling and stealing the glances of maan once a second from the open kitchen and turning all red when maan's eyes met hers. She understood the unsaid bond between them and was happy finally geet moved on in her life unlike her.
Shalini stood there at the counter lost in her thoughts of past when geet saw her. After finishing the preparation of coffee geet turned to look at shalini only to find her lost in space and a tear drop which threatened to fall from her eyes.
After leaving the clg hostel geet along with shalini stayed in a room and finished their graduation. At that time shalini became so silent and depressed due to all the happenings in her life. Geet herself turned into a stone which dint help shalini come out of her state.
Geet tried to talk to her but shalini still stayed the same. After completing the graduation...on the graduation day geet came home only to find it open and shalini missing.
She left a note not to search for her and not to think about her ever again. Geet collapsed on the floor, the only ray of light...her only friend remaining...shalini also left her...and made her a total rock.
"but I m not at all sorry geet" shalini's voice broke geet's thoughts and she looked at her confused.
thay both made their way to the living room where maan sat. geet gave him his black coffee and took her own drink and sat there in silence. Shalini sat in the opposite sofa with her own drink.
"yes geet thats true... I m not at all sorry for leaving u...yeah I agree that it turned u cold...but still it brought new changes in our life..." shalini spoke at a confused geet.
They all sat in silence for few minutes taking the sips from there own drinks now and then and finally placed the empty glases on the table before them as shalini continued to speak.
Shalini "haan geet...that day I left the flat...thats the day which brought unexpectable changes in our lives..."
Shalini saw geet and tears started formings in her eyes again.
Shalini "that day...graduation day...we both went to collect graduation ceremony but I came back soon...not actually I left in middle..."
Geet "y did u leave?"
Geet asked her in cold voice. But shalini maintained her look.
She continued looking lost in the space "I left...yes I left...i left as I felt suffocated...i m unable to bear those eyes on me...those disgusted looks people gave...or rather I thought people gave me...from the day we stayed in a flat I locked myself in the dark room for days...weeks...or may be months...and u tried...in that state of urs...u tried to get me out of that dark room...but still my fear didn't let me step out...u tried hard to make me eat and drink...may be becoz of that I m still alive...or I would have ended my life in that room...I still remember that day when I slit my wrist and u saved me...I remember the day when I tried to hang and u slapped me...and I remember that day when I tried sleeping pills and again u saved me...what not I tried to kill y self...and u r always with me as my life savior...after all the futile attempts and all the slaps I got from u I finally stepped out...yeah I stepped out of that closed room...but my fers still dint stepped out of me...
I rejected going back to clg and u helped me to continue my degree privately...at that time I dunno how much u helped me...but know I know...those small steps u made me do are the major steps of my life...
I stayed at home more than half of the time lost in space...i still don't understand how I completed my degree geet...(she tried to chuckle but all that came out of her are tears from past)
Even doing degree from home it is compulsory to attend the graduation ceremony ...
U took me to the hall...i rejected coming out but u r stubborn like always...u thought that will change my mood...but that suffocated me...may be the suffocation is temporary...that single step of ur to take me out changed my entire life geet...
I felt all are looking at me...all are giving me disgusted looks...I felt as if all are seeing me as...as a...(she is unable to complete that dirty word)
I felt scared...i ran geet...i ran away from there I stepped into the flat...i again locked my self in the dark room...but his time even the dark room suffocated me...
I stepped out of the room and that is when I heard ur phone ringing...u forgot it in the flat while leaving for ceremony...or may be ur babaji wrote that in destiny...
I dint know why I lifted the call...thats from one of ur friends...meera...
She is shouting from the other end...shouting and screaming at u for leaving them...not even once contacting them...i heard her say that u broke all the contacts with ur friends from the day we left the hostel...
I kept the phone back and collapsed on the bed...i saw u struggle...i saw u studying hard...i saw u doing the part time in a cafe...i saw u being silent...i saw u protecting me...saving me every time I tried to kill me...i saw the coldness in ur eyes...
The geet'the bubbly geet who entered the college'.who shared a room with me'.who fought with me over very silly things''who laughed for ever simle joke'.turned totally different''.i saw u trying to live ur life still after the hige heart break'..i saw the hope in ur eyes''even after a huge thing'..may be u killed ur smile and turned cold'.but still the hope reminded in ur eyes'..the hope of something good happening'..the hope of future'.
That is when I realized life is not a sin'..its a gift''a gift by god'..i stupidly tried to end my life'..
I left'..i left for good geet'..for good'..with ur hope'..the hope which I saw in ur eyes''the hope to rule the future'.
Shalini turned to geet who is looking at her with tears running down her eyes. She placed a hand on geets hands which are resting on the table.
"where did u go" geet spoke wiping her eyes.
"where did u go shalini'.what should I think?...u tried to kill ur self for almost 20 times and suddenly u left'..what should I think????...i searched u shalini''I searched for u for months'.. every where'..every corner'.do u even know what I went throught????...do u even know I went to mortuary just to confirm that the body police found on the railway track is not urs'." Geet screamed on top of her voice standing from her seat.
