mean while in australia ,
'hw u feeling beta?'it ws her dad wid b'ful flowers in hand..'this is fr u.'
'thnx dad.i love u.'she smiled.
'me too beta.'
'dnt u think rahil has every right to know d truth..'
'ha has papa , lekin jab use ye pata lagega ki meri yahan bachne ke chances hi nahi hai to kua wo jee payega? nahi papa.its better he doesnt knows nething.'
'lekin is time wo kitna pareshaan hoga.'
'hone do papa , abhi wo pareshaan hai.mujhe aise dekh kar wo dukhi ho jayega.main use dukhi nahi dekh sakti.wo tut jayega papa...i dnt wnt him to b like that.he shud face everything , like he has always , including my death.'
'thnx dad.i love u.'she smiled.
'me too beta.'
'dnt u think rahil has every right to know d truth..'
'ha has papa , lekin jab use ye pata lagega ki meri yahan bachne ke chances hi nahi hai to kua wo jee payega? nahi papa.its better he doesnt knows nething.'
'lekin is time wo kitna pareshaan hoga.'
'hone do papa , abhi wo pareshaan hai.mujhe aise dekh kar wo dukhi ho jayega.main use dukhi nahi dekh sakti.wo tut jayega papa...i dnt wnt him to b like that.he shud face everything , like he has always , including my death.'
n she again wiped the tears that were flowing non-stop thinking of him frm the day she got to know of her critical condition.
the pain ws more painful then knowing that she will be dead soon.it ws hurting her in her heart.n it ws constant.she wanted to tell everything to rahil..bt how...n why..to see him totally shattered...broken .....defeated...she can never do it..
here in 5 days all ws arranged fr rahil.he ws permitted to australia on mere 10 day tour.ye 5 din kaise nikale the wo hi janta hai.bt it ws visible that he is completely stressed out.his beard ws grown.he had slightly reduced on weight.....he had sleepless nights....bt still had hope that he will see his fiancee , his love n now wen he ws so close to hospital in australia , he cudnt take a step ahead.something stopped him....he freezed as if knowing that something is wrong...terribly wrong....bt still he collected all his strength n enterd the hospital.....
'room no 401 , 4th floor sir'
the ascend to 4th floor thru escalator took only 2 mins of time..bt he wanted it to b more...mayb 20 mins..may be 2 hrs...sh*t the floor came...
401 , he stood outside the room.knockd..once twice...no one answered...he opened the door slowly n peeped in....that face...he can point out in huge crowd....she ws there wid all the medical apparatus arnd her...he came close n had a look....few needles were pierced in her skin...same soft skin on hand he felt million of times.his face ws nt glowing as it ws used to....bt instead it ws deadly pale....deadly...the word brought the deep thot of his heart come alive...she ws serious....he sat beside her...held her hand...
'hi'she whispered , his touch she can nvr forget.
'hi.'he replied.
'i knew u wud come..kaise bhi..bt u will'she smiled.
'aana hi tha.tum bataogi nahin to kya mujhe pata nahi chalega.'
' i m sorry rahi....i m sorry'a tear trickeled down...
'dnt be...we will get thru this...'
'its late..very late..'she closed her eyes in disapproval...
they wanted to hold onto each oder's han...forever....bt their destiny had planned something else...
the sadness on her face...of nt being able to be togeder.... ws killing him.she had become very weak.even her long black hair had become thin...the mediscenes had their side effects....the usual twinkle in her eyes were missing.she knew its the end....
'dnt go asmi'he jerked her back.
she smiled.
'dnt go..i will die widout u..'
'dnt ever say that...i will always b around u...u smile n u will feel me...u love n u will feel me..'
'no happiness...no smile...no love widout u asmi...'
'for me rahi , for me....it had to happen...dnt let the sadness eat u...plzz...rahi...i love u , i always will...u know....for me..live..happily...'
'u r ot doing it right asmi...leaving me alone...u are my strength....'
'then treat me as one...i wud love to b ur strength , nt as ur weakness....'
he ws now laying beside her on the bed n hugging her , partially on her...
'i m glad u came...dnt make me sad rahi...smile n let me go.'
'no..never..u hv to stay fr me...fr us..'
she raised her hand , touched his lips n getured him to smile...fr her..n he did.....she too....
and her mother startd sobbing...she ws standing at the door witnessing her daughter's death....
she had lost her daughter.....
he had lost his smile...his love...his life....
at present nethra ws lestening him n she gasped , asmi ws dead...n he had so much in his heart...he nvr told nething...he ws sitting on floor wid his face in his hands....it ws so painful...bt it felt light....it really did....
nethra came n sat in front of her , made him to remove his hands n raise his head....there were no tears bt eyes showed such sadness n hollowness that she cud of nthing bt giving him a hug.....she ran her fingers into his hair...calming him down....
"thnx nethra"
"shhh...dnt say nething."
wen he had composed himself....he seprated , had a glass of water n looked towards her...she gave him a smile.they hugged again...he ws drawing strength fr her...bt it ws different this time....he hid her face in nape of her neck n kissed...she smiled blushingly....he moved his hands all around her back....she hung hers around his neck n played wid his hair....he kissed her neck...moved upwards kissed her chin...n claimed her lips...upper one....lower one....they had their 1st kiss...widout ne interruptions this time....full of passion...yes he loved her...truly....somehow he had startd loving her.....kissed her eyes....then slipped a hand beneath her knees carried her to the bed n kissed her all over again...this time he explored the new area...shoulder...cleavage....she too let him kiss her nywhere n everywhere....
"i love u"he said suddenly in between a kiss..."i thot u shud know..."he continued.
"i love u too."she replied blushingly..."u shud know also.."
n wat continued ws the physical love that ws due right frm wen they were married....both were happy....they got their love....
destiny had them to meet...n they did....
