I was writing a story when mom came and gave me a cup of coffee. She sat near me and asked "advaay what are you doing dear.. I hope u are not upto write a story again." I smiled and replied "I am upto that mom but u don't panic . As u know nothing can stop me and even my love can also "not stop me. Writing is my passion. But don't worry I will focus on my studies as well. I know you want me to be a adoctor and I will try''
Don't worry Mom
my passion for writing will not affect my studies
u know how much I love and respect u
I consider your wishes my command
but when I start to write my hand just doesn't stop
I want to make it my hobby
His mother stands up with a angry face "advaay, it is better u stop writing and please leave and focus on your studies if u will not concentrate on that then how will u continue your father's business? And another tomorrow is Chandu"s birthdayu please buy something special and gift it to her" she Says and leaves him
he feels bad at his mom's comment
no one understands his passion except Chandni
she was his best friend from an early age
only she knew how much he loves writing
thinking about her brought a huge smile on his face
he knew what to get for her
he had planned to gift her an idol of Shiv Parvati
she was a great bhakt of Shiv ji
along with the idol he had also planned to give her a story
she loved all his stories and read them multiple times
it was she who had encouraged him to write
He said to himself"let me not say to mom and give her one story as if mom knows it she will kill me and let me buy a beautiful idol but why shall I buy when my nani iso expert in idol making " and smiles and runs to his nani
when he went to his Nani she was doing her puja
she signalled him to sit for a while
soon she was done with her puja
she went to Advay and hugged him and he hugged her back
she asked him Kya kaam Tha tujhe Jo itni subah mere paas agaya
Advay said Nani how do you understand what I want
she said tu mere pota Hai tujhe main achche se jaanti Hoon ab bol Kya kaam Hai
he said Nani Kal Chandni ki Janam din Hai
Mai chahta Hoon aa usko ek Shiv Parvati ki murti bana ke de usko achcha lagega
Nani smiled at his request
Nani said Okay but u too will help me in itAdvay was elated and both started making the idol
While making the idol nani asked "okay. What else u are going to give her ? One thing u do... u can give your happiness to her or else something more precious. Well I am going to give her my hand made cupcakes ." Advaay feels vomited and thinks " Nani u don't dare to give cupcakes to her . There are always so fried and blacc. .. " Then he replied " I am going to give her a story and this idol nothing more" Nani said " if your mom will know she may be very angry . What ever we give her she may not be satisfied as she is. Very sad for her mother who is in comma for last 3 years . I just hope she may recover soon.."
Next day :
I waked up when I saw a letter near y table with a locket . I opened the letter and started reading it . There was written *I am sorry advay . My father has got transferred to kolkata and we have to leave by today itself . Please forgive me . We will be in contact by phone. ..
Your friend
Chandu (chandini)*
My eyes where filled with tears .. I consoled me " no advay . Chandini likes to joke with me and this is a part of that. But if it is true? But how can she leave me like this and go"
He remembered the locket and opens it . There was his and chandini childhood photos . I started crying slowly ...
And said "what does this means ? U want to leave our childhood friendship near me and go away from me ?"
Advay took the locket with him and made his way to Chandni's house to meet herBut he found that the door was locked
Then he thought about going to the bus station nearby
All the while he only thought about meeting Chandni one last time before leaving
But alas he could not meet her as the bus for Kolkata already left
Advay felt hurt and completely broken.
He went to a garden and found a quiet place
He took the locket from his pocket and opened it and saw his and Chandni's photo
And a tear filled with sadness fell from his eyes as he looked at it
Suddenly someone kept hand on my shouldersI saw my back ... I was heart filled with happiness as she was
Chandini. I couldn't control myself and hugged her
Then I heard my mom " advaay what are u doing this ... are baba leave me. Chod mujhe "
When I saw actually it was my mom... not chandini
That day I was felt my heart broken
