Kriyaansh Re-union
A love like theirs was too perfect for this world. Two soul mates can't be torn apart, no matter the reason. They keep searching for each other, until they are reunited in such a way that nothing can tear them apart again'
Lyrics: Within Temptation ' Somewhere
Lost in the darkness, hoping for a sign
Instead there is only silence,
Can't you hear my screams...?
Instead there is only silence,
Can't you hear my screams...?
Almost a year had passed since that 13th of February night' He had his eyes covered' He slowly advanced towards her' He would reach to touch her, to grab her, to hold her, to keep her with him forever' He would try and follow her, to feel her'
But in vain' In front of him... darkness' He would take off the scarf from his eyes just to find that she wasn't there' He would wake up from this nightmare screaming her name' but she couldn't hear him'
Never stop hoping,
Need to know where you are
But one thing is for sure,
You're always in my heart.
Need to know where you are
But one thing is for sure,
You're always in my heart.
That was the reason why Reyaansh barely had any sleep at nights. After such a sweet January, his life became bitter. At first he told himself he could live without Kria, that he could forget her.
How soon he realized that he was mistaking! He would think about her all day, and his nights would be tormented by nightmares of her leaving.
During February he had tried countless times to find her, but she had moved away of the house where she lived in his hometown' He tried finding out where she was from her landlord, but he wouldn't tell him anything. He went to his house several times. The last time he went, he got so angry on his silence, that he hit him. After that he never returned again, ashamed on his gesture.
At the beginning of the spring, Reyaansh decided his life had to change, that he must try at all cost to forget Kria. So he decided to take refuge in his dance, he decided that he had to become the best again. He would dance all day round and barely have any sleep at all. He thought that dance would be the best remedy to forget Kria'
Lost in the darkness, try to find your way home
I want to embrace you and never let you go
Almost hope you're in heaven so no one can hurt your soul...
Living in agony 'cause I just do not know
Where you are
I want to embrace you and never let you go
Almost hope you're in heaven so no one can hurt your soul...
Living in agony 'cause I just do not know
Where you are
But he was wrong' Dance could not help him forget Kria. She was with him, in his mind at every instant. Knowing nothing about her was torturing him. Thinking about the pain that she might have felt leaving him was enough to make him feel pain. Remembering her suffer was too much for him. His heart was not ready to take all the things she said in pre-valentines night. Sometimes he reminiscized the past memories, the moments they cherished, the incidental hugs they shared, the cute talks they lived for, and the love without confinements. Sometimes he imagined her dancing with him with same passion and intensity which they had in their new born relationship, their re-union and trying to get better to get back to him' but Kria was not that kind of person, he would remember how she was always true to her words, she was not the person to give up her decision, but then he would realize that Kria would rather suffer than betraying someone's trust so how could she betray him who loved her with every depth of his emotions. In moments when these thoughts tormented his mind he would pray that everything could be normal, that God had not brought her in his life so that he hadn't suffer this much. But the thought of present, Kria being not in his life was of even more torture'
Thus, Rey passed his days in agony, desperately wanting to see his Kria, at least for one moment, to know how she is'
Wherever you are, I won't stop searching.
Whatever it takes, I need to know.
Whatever it takes, I need to know.
Rey hardly ever imagined what was to come to him'
One day, at college, during a dance fest, he felt a strong pain in his chest and collapsed to the ground. When he woke up, he found himself in a hospital, in the Intensive Care unit, connected to all sorts of machines that kept him alive. A few days later, the doctor told him that they had to fight hard to keep him alive. He warned Rey that his lifestyle had seriously affected his heart. Working almost all day, barely sleeping, few food, lots of coffee' His heart condition was so poor that any strong emotion could kill him. The doctor recommended him to take a long vacation if he wanted to reach his pre-old age.
When Rey was released from the hospital it was October 31. One year before, he had met Kria. That night he went home, thinking about everything the doctor told him.
He decided that time came to put an end to his doubts, that he had to find Kria, to find the truth, whatever happened, that it was the only way for him to live in peace.
I'll find you somewhere
I'll keep on trying until my dying day
I just need to know whatever has happened,
The Truth will free my soul.
I'll keep on trying until my dying day
I just need to know whatever has happened,
The Truth will free my soul.
1st of December. Swayam heard a knock on his door. On opening it, he saw Rey. He knew what Rey was going through so he let him in at this hour of night. They decided to search Kria in any condition whether it would take a single second of their life. Both had shared an inseparable bond with that girl; be it of friendship or love, trust or loyalty. Their first step took them to Dehradun, which was the origin of his love-life.
It took one month in finding her address, but someone said true love never cared for the time because love is always static.
Swayam knocked the door of a small house yet elegant. A lady in her late 20's opened the door. They were a known face for her, so she let them in. With tears in his eyes, Rey implored her to tell him where Kria was' And to his big surprise, she knew about her and accepted to take them to her' under one condition' the lady took out a scarf, a scarf identical to that one which covered his eyes the day he lost her. The lady explained it was Smriti ,who attempted suicide for unknown reasons, had earlier told her the things about Kria's will to be like that, so Rey let her cover his eyes. They got in the car and drove away.
When Rey felt the car stop, he could barely speak with the anxiety. He felt the lady taking his arm and leading the way for him' then they stopped' He felt that lady slipping a piece of paper into his hand' He heard her telling him that he must read it' He felt the bond of the scarf slowly becoming loose' He could see some rays of light' He looked in front of him just to see the sight that he feared for so long' He could hear the lady telling him that she was sorry, but he was too late'
Rey kneeled on the grave' She had died in October' She had died the day he had the heart attack' He felt it was a sign' His heart almost ceased to beat the day hers ceased to' Why did they bring him back to life? Clenching his fists in despair he felt the piece of paper the lady gave him to read. He opened it' Kria's handwriting' A letter from her'
"Dear Rey,
If you get to read this letter, it means that I have died.
But it also means that you never gave us up. That you didn't forget me. That I've managed to change, to make you feel real love. That you remember me just as I wanted you to: happy, healthy, powerful'
I hope you don't hate me for leaving you, I hope you understand me' I never forgot you. Remembering our sweet memories gave me the strength to keep my decision firmer until the last moment, but loving you and leaving you was not possible.
You mustn't cry for me, Rey! You mustn't mourn me! Just, from time to time, once a year, one day in January, I pray that you come and visit my grave, and that you bring me one of those wild orchids you told me that I reminded you of'
Forget me but remember our memories!
With love,
Kria"
Rey could barely finish reading the letter. Tears would run down his face. He bowed his head and stood like that for a while.
Was he dreaming or did he hear Kria call him? He raised his head' She was standing in front of him, all dressed in white. She reached for his hand' he gave her his hand' He embraced her as he never did before, then they left off into the distant sunset, two white shadows'
Swayam was getting worried for Rey, seeing that he didn't move for a long while. He slowly approached him. He called him, but Rey stood motionless, kneeling down, resting his head on Kria's tombstone. Swayam tried in vain to get him to get up' Rey was not breathing any more' Reunited with Kria, his heart failed him' His heart, which once was filled with love for her, now ceased its beat to set him free'
Separated on Earth, reunited in Heaven' Two soul-mates that finally found their rest' Two tombs laying side by side'
And a distant memory of KriYansh...
I know it was short in length' but trust me I would really want to keep it this way'if I could have been in place of creatives (I'm not blaming anyone)and had pressure to end the character of Kria'I never had butchered that like it has been done in the real story' My option would be the one which I showed in this creation'for me there is no Rey without Kria' they are always KriYansh first' then with their single identities' so this is just a small dedication in a memory of a girl who lived in everybody's heart and still reside there'.the one and only Kria Ghai and I Salute Shakti Mohan to bring her in an inspirational way'
Will really love to know your take on this'
Reviews and criticism'always appreciated.
