PART 4
Kashish stumbled towards Angad and asked him what he was doing there. Angad stared at her in disbelief-- she didn't remember anything? Kashish saw the confusion on his face and said, "I am sorry, you have done so much for me and owe you my life....so I also owe you an explanation for saving me again. The nurse said you were wonderful...She thought you and I were married 😳 😆. But anyway, the truth is I don't know who I am. I don't know anything about me. I feel lost, like one star in the billions that are in the sky. Sometimes I hope that one day I will stumble into someone who will recognize me- someone who can save me from this life of mystery. But no one has come yet...So I have to rebuild my life- I guess you could call it a second chance. Everyone wants one, but I have one and I dont want it. I wish I had something or someone who could be with me now, who could show me what I love and what I hate, someone who could show me who I am...."
Angad listened to her and his heart skipped a beat. Her words were filled with pain yet had more hope than he had ever felt since he lost his wife. He could listen forever...listen and feel like there was more to life just because this Kashish wanted there to be.
Kashish looked back at Angad's stunned face and tried to smile. Her thoughts slid to the back of her head to be saved for another time. "I am sorry, I have been talking about nothing and everything- I must have bored you. Well, basically I have amnesia, sort of...Three years ago I woke up in a hospital and didn't know what my hands were or why I felt so tired. I woke up from coma and was a newborn infant. I have finally been on my own for the past 6 months. I regained most of my memory quickly, memory of all the easy things. I just can't remember me...And so old things that I see or that might remind me of my past life have a great affect on me. Sometimes I have flashbacks, but nothing that answers my questions. All these times are accompanied by dizziness and fainting spells."
Angad watched her talk, he watched her mouth move and lost himself in memories...Angad brushed away loose strands of hair from his girlfriend's face..no wife's face! He would have to get used to thinking of her this way. She turned and looked at him shyly and they stared into each other's eyes. ...Angad glanced into Kashish's eyes and felt a stab of pain.
Kashish waved her hand in front Angad's face. He came back to the real world and got up from his chair. "I am sorry...I wish I could help you more. At least let me take you home," he said. Kashish smiled and replied, "No no, I may have fainted for a while there, but I still cant neglect my duties! I am starting a new life, and I dont want to mess up now! Actually, I was looking for an Angad Khana...I am a journalist and came to interview him about his new novel. I have to go there now or else my boss will be upset!"
Angad looked at her in shock! Could two people be destined to meet he wondered? Why is she being placed in my path always? Just when I thought I could have my second chance, she comes here. God Please help me
"I am Angad Khana," Angad said sadly.
