OS-|| Conflicted Hearts ||
With a grumpy face she entered the parking lot of her new office. It was her first day at office. The day before, had been a total disaster. That guy had practically, told her he dint know her. Such a two-faced jerk. Only the other day he was there at the chawl offering her tea. in a drunken state, giving a Devdas speech. On top of it all, he rejected her the job at first as though she was from some alien planet and would eat him up, to eventually give it to her in the end.
There was something weird about that guy. Shaking her thoughts out she walked towards the building, hoping that nothing would go wrong this time.
Half-an-Hour later:
She was at the exact same place, with her new boss screaming on her for something. She had apparently leaked the company's confidential papers. Like Seriously? Being an half-an hour old employee, did he really think she was that capable. If the first day was like this she dreaded imagining the following days. She was Anika after all. She couldn't take all that disrespect for no fault of hers, as long as HE was not at the giving end. Strange enough she took all the dis-respect he gave to her that day, not a chance she would take it all from him, but that day she had induced it on purpose. It had bled her heart to listen to his shouting voice, after the caring sweet voice he pampered her with all those days. He had stabbed her heart, by his behaviour, at the rise of the Beasty Stone Singh Oberoi once again. The same Sweet Singh Oberoi, her Billuji, had transformed back to the man who never trusted her in matter of minutes. It pained her soul to see those eyes reflect anger, the same Kanji ones that she saw immense love and care for herself in. She had induced it all.!!
She smirked; it was time to flaunt to this new guy, who she was!
At a distance a pair of greenish blue eyes widened, as they scanned her face. He nodded in a no. He was here to get her out of the company and she was here preparing to do it all herself. He knew her too well to guess what she was up to in her brain, as she looked at the gardener watering the plants with a pipe in hand.
For a reason unknown to himself, a part of him din't want her to do it. Though, the other part of him just wanted her to spoil the job in hand. Back was the famous Mind-Heart War In His System. He hit his fist on the tree, he was standing beside. He felt the fire inside him re-ignite.
Why?
Because, she couldn't hate someone, besides him?
Why?
Why couldn't she put water over the guy just like she did when she was angry with him?
Why?
Why couldn't she be angry with someone else?
The whirlpool of fire within him was killing him with every passing milli-second.
The truth was he loved her too much. He loved her whole. He loved her everything.
If she was supposed to be mad, she was supposed to be mad at him!
If she was supposed to be angry, she was to be angry at him!
If she was supposed to throw water, she was supposed to throw it at him!
If she was supposed to scream she was supposed to scream at him!
If she was to love, she was to love him!
If she was to care, she was to care for him!
He had got too used to being the Centre of her Universe.
A fear gripped his heart, what if she...
What if she gave someone else the position he held in her Life.?
Why couldn't she?
After all he was the one who snatched himself away from her.
He hit his fist on the tree, harder this time. His mind wanted to destroy her, like she destroyed the Shivaay that lived inside the SSO.
But that stupid Shivaay within him, held back the SSO in him every time, hurting himself in the process.
She walked up to the gardener and took the pipe from his hand, and turned to look at her so called Boss, who looked baffled.
And suddenly, she left it, and it fell to the ground. She couldn't. She couldn't throw water at the other guy like she did to HIM. She was only HIS PAANIKA. No one else.
She walked out, confused at her own reactions. She had been rendered highly incapable of thinking about anything but him. Being away, he still ruled not only her heart but also her. She clutched her bag tightly as she left, her expression shocked. Tears had made way to her eyes. This is why she never wanted to be in love.
It hurts, It dominates, She had nothing of herself in her, just a few broken pieces and the remaining part, just him.
He had tears as well as he saw her leave confused at her own actions. He smiled sadly. She was always HIS, would always be. She loved him too much to let anyone take HIS place in her life, even for the smallest of things for that matter. The battle was within him. He had to fight it all by himself to get to her. But, the fear of the unknown engulfed him. He stood there, speechless and motionless.
Love had turned two strong headed people into the most useless fools, hurting themselves more than the other and burning in the same fire, helpless and yet terribly responsible for their own fate.
