NOSTALGIA.....A comeback! - Page 8

Sniff Sniff.. really really sad. I loved it. I don't know why but I like very emotional stories and yours makes me want to weep. 😭

plzzzz continue soon.....i am so happy that you are back.. 😛 😛 😛

The night passed by like a storm….that destroyed many hearts…..killed many should…..

Next morning….

"Kya bakwaas hai!", he stormed into her room fuming….

He stood still by the door, staring at her, as she stood wearing a stunning light yellow Lehnga. Glamorous!

…..but his brows arched in a frown….he didn't smile….didn't nod….he didn't like it when she dressed up so gorgeously…..his wrists in a tightening knot….

"Kya? Tum khush nahin ho?"

Something in her tone and expression made him hit the wall, and suddenly rush up to her and hold her elbows tightly…..his fingers and her elbow turning pale in pressure…..

"Tu jaanti hai….", but before he could complete…..

………she stared back at him…..with fire filled intensity in her innocent burning red eyes…..

"Haan!"

…….he stared back at her trying to catch her gaze, which she decidedly fixed on the nearby window……..

Hw sighed and shook her free with a violent push, as she was thrown behind colliding with the dresser…….

He shot that last gaze at her……….murderous, disapproving, angry, interrogating……pleading…….

………and stormed out of her room…..

She was expecting this…..but bearing it was different……but she was too bruised to feel any more pain…..she stood there……like a statue…..gazing at the door that banged shut……

'C R A S H!'………..somewhere, in the house…….a glassware had broken………

……….or someone broke it!

The afternoon was scheduled for the Poojas, and the happenings of the previous night had reached all the friends. The happy gang that took over the entire mansion yesterday, was quiet…..confined to their rooms…..

Naina dressed her friend for the ceremony, choosing between various shades of make-up and different designs of jewelry….that was her wedding gift for the two….their trousseau….she had gotten it specially designed.

"Naina"

She went on choosing her bangles….

"Naina….tu yeh….", Pooja was sitting in her blue Lehenga, looking at a stunning Naina, who stood behind dressing her…..

"……jhumke pehnegi….yah yeh crystals achhe hain?", she asked holding up two pieces of jewelry…..clearly indicating that she didn't want to answer.

But she knew that approach didn't work with her friends.

"Yeh mazak nahin hai…..", a tear shone in her eye.

Naina quickly put Pooja's tikka on her forehead, and avoiding her gaze turned to go away…..

As she reached the door, she halted for a second, and gave out a distorted hollow laugh without looking at Pooja.

"Yeh mazak nahin hai", she gave a painful smile, "…..aur na hi meri zindagee……"

Pooja for the first time went on silent mode….she really didn't have anything to answer to that…..she was in her bridal attire, speechless……in pain……

The Ganesh Pooja was in full swing. As usual Meethi was running around the house in her violet chudidaar, and a long braid. Everyone glancing at a descending Naina, who was not aware of the attention. Her three friends looking away, quietly.

Aalekh deciededly looking at a nearby candle, and then walked away……

Yudi scurried away with Meethi…….

She walked up to Huda and stood next to him, smiling at him sweetly……

"Nai….."

"Sawal mat poochna Huda", she replied quite emotionlessly, "…..mere paas jawab nahin hai!"

A tear sparkled in those gay eyes. He wanted to go out to some deserted place and scream his heart out. It had taken him five years, and tremendous courage to face her….face her again…..

He had never objected her love for Rajveer…..he could be happy as long as she smiled……

….but these five years were as difficult for his as they had been for Naina……she core more than he could…….his pain….his heartache…..and everytime he heard her voice….he saw her ……her failing courage….her dying spirits…….his courage failed him……

……..But this was…..he was not ready for this…..he would never be….he couldn't…..

….he couldn't witness his heart breaking every minute….he couldn't stand her falling apart every second…..

…….the thought threw him into the trauma he managed to survive five years back…..it threatened him to erupt the violent fight he fought and lost all these years…….

…………..Marrying Naina……was impossible…..for Captain Amardeep Huda!

************************************************************ *

The Pooja had just started.

When she came in with flowers. She saw him standing in the varandah alone. Some unknown glum eclipsing his already serious face. He was staring at the sun. Directly. She wondered whether his eyes ever hurt.

She passed him with two baskets of flowers, balancing them. He involuntarily helped her with one of them.

"Main apna kaam khud karti hoon, Major", she smiled at him, hoping to have her gesture reciprocated.

He silently picked up the basket and was about to walk into the hall, when she suddenly bent her knew and lowered her head indicating him to put it on her head.

He shock his head a little and mounted the cane basket on her head, his hand slightly brushing her silky curls.

She struggled and finally balanced one basked on her head, and another beside her waist, and walked in.

Something about her stupidly childish arrogance and sparkling eyes, made his lips arch in a little grin.

*********************************************

"Haye Raam, main to sochya…."

"Ki who….vadda officer iska pati hai, hai na?"

"……..par yeh to…..", gossips went on….

Meethi grinned hopelessly..she had hardly spoken to Naina, but she felt an unknown bond, to the woman, her brother loved…..immensely……maybe more than she could ever imagine…….

….but something in those gossips made her hopping feet halt abruptly…….

"……..iski to abhi shaadi hi…."

"Aachha, kisse?"

"W o h wahan……wahan….jiske saath khadi hai…."

"W o h bhi to army officer hai!"

"Haan bhai, aajkal di kudiyon nu yahi sab pasand hai….", said one, and the others giggled.

"Waise kehna padega, munda bada sona hai…..ekdam gabhru jawan……jat hai suna hai…."

"Haan…..Amritsar se….."

Rest of the conversation went unheard, as her eyes darted towards Naina…….she stood…..with her little honest smile……..something missing about her persona……as if she lost something a little too precious overnight………

…..she stood with…..with…..no….Huda…..

Four Hours Back :: 400hrs.

"It's a COMPROMISE…."

"Samajh main aaya…..yah karna hai….."

"Pyaar? Huh!……Pyaar to door ku baat hai……..dum ghut ta hai mera…….ghin aati hai……..tumse!"

"Aye Ladki, yeh le……..", a photograph was thrust into her hand……

"Aapne……..mere…………bhaiyya………..ko……", a pair of blood shot eyes glared at her.

Dr.Ritu Singh Shekhawat was in love……… honestly ……….. truthfully…….

Her marriage ….. she had realized ……. that night ….. was a terrible mistake ……. mistake …………

………….. she had married him merely to satisfy her hurt ego …… to win a lost battle ……. he was the first and the sole man who hadn't fallen to her charms …..to whom her glamour failed to woo ….

……and that over smart girl ….. Naveen's sister ………. took him away ………. Naveen ……… Huh ……. his eyes were always interrogating…… even in love …… and in the jail ……….. his eyes always asked questions ……… his love intact in them ………. making her feel like a …. a …. a smelly vermin ….. a bloody ……. bloody traitor!

……. Traitor …..yes …….that's what she was .. she didn't know, when she started cheating herself …….when did she turn a traitor …….. to her heart …….her soul………..

…………she thought she had won him …….taken him from her ….forever …………..Naina had lost………….

……….today, 5years from that fated day …….she felt she had always lost…….every second……every moment…..of the marriage….she had lost…to Naina..

……..she had lost…..lost to Naina….for whom, both Rajveer and Naveen……..killed themselves….their own happiness……

……..and lost Naveen……….who always loved her…………so much that……..no hatred ever appeared in his honest eye ………..after what she did to him …………

……..lost her dignity…….her pride ………….to a man who could've been a wonderful friend………….

………..she thought that Naina would disappear from her….their lives……….she never did………Ritu never saw her……..but she was there…..she felt her……….whenever she saw him…………she had missed……

………..she had missed that their love……………..had made her a part of his existence………..she had always been there…………..she had never left………….

……and now she had lost the man…….she dearly loved…………..the man who now detested her……….hated her……….

Honda City DL3984, rushed at a speed of 110kms on the ghats somewhere outside Kapoorthala, at dawn…..

……….screeching…….taking sharp scary hairpin turns………….overtaking……….going into one ways………

……..eyes red shot…….tears never ceased flowing………….he had yelled at her……….he spoke the truth……………the first time………..in five long years………..because of her………..

……….she could see everything very clearly………she could see through herself…………….

…………..she was a compromise…. scrrrrrreeechhh……………….

she was not a friend……whoooshh…

she was not a sister….not a wife……….a violent turn……….

…she was never loved….never….by anyone……

……………she was a TRAITOR……

S---C---R---E---E---E---E---E---C---H!!!!

The car toppled down the valley………she knew……..it was over…………

……..she closed her eyes……….and two faces flickered before her eyes………..arching her lips in a smile……

………..she closed her eyes…………

……..as Colonel Rajveer Singh Shekhawat's car burst into violent flamed………….

**************************************************

Awesome! Ritu deserves to die.. sorry I am too harsh but she was a bad bad woman. What she did to Naveen and now Naina and Rajveer. I just hope Raj doesn't feel this happened because of him. I like your fanfic though at times I'm confused who's talking to who but it's awesome! 👏
