KHUSHIII...!!!!!!!
He woke up with a start. Not one day has gone by without him dreaming about her and waking up. He was perspiring...so early in morning n he was already awake. He knew it wudn't be possible for him to go back to sleep now. Its been like that for quite some time.
It was 4:30 am...n d entire Rm was in deep slumber..blissfully dreaming...blissfully unaware of his condition...his pain. WAIT...!!!! What pain??...he is responsible for this mess. He thought he is the one who can do anything, he can change destinies, steer his life in a direction he wants...his thoughts trailed off...
Escapist...a bloody escapist...he has been his worst self in these past few days. Hurting everyone...hurting her. He didnot want to think about her.
She doesnrt matter anymore. She is a past...history...its over..."get over it...damnnit!!!"...he thought.
His lyf is finally in control but still something is wrong today...something is pricking in his heart...what is it???
"Get a grip...u just cant lose it...its enought...one shower is all i need, n then ill b fine, ready for my day", he shrugged.
He went over to the cupboard to grab his clothes. Foolishly hoping that he would see her sittig there. Irritated with himself he took out the clothes,banged the door shut n went to the bathroom when he suddenly remmbered her hiding there when he was furious with Lavanya for persuading him for marriage.
"Its nothing...i must not think of her...i will not think of her"...he repeated...loudly this time so that the thought sinks into his head.
He came out n went to sit in the garden.Plants..his garden.. his solace... Watering them, trimming them n putting everything into order.It was pristine anyways but he needed to pass time and it was getting more n more difficult to do so.
This place was his only comfort zone in this house and now it had come to haunt him like never before.
Everything...almost everything reminded him of her presence.
He could feel her standing behind him afraid to speak, he could here her sobbing and apologising, he almost smiled when he remmbered how dirt fell in her eyes n he helped her,
how that foolish girl managed to entangle herself in fairy lights n still managed to look like a fairy herself.
How he put that payal on her...
How he could still smell her scent everywhere...
How he came so close to kiss her and then...
He opened his eyes in horror...threw the plant he was holding in his hands n it broke into pieces like his heart broke into pieces when he deliberately pushed her away from himself...
swearing that he will never see his face...so why on earth today he thinking about nothing but her...
something is not right today...something is so not right...
He was completely irritated with himself when he headed down for breakfast at 7'o clock. He had heard the whole family during morning aarti but he couldnt care less.
He stayed in his room fighting his emotions n thoughts which were not in control today n finally went down when OP came to call him.
The atmosphere was unusually bright today and the moment he entered with his sour face he could feel d entire family looking at him.
But they resumed talking as soon as it had stopped. Now even his family has decided to ignore his rude behaviour. He had been an eye sore lately.
The servants were too scared to talk to him, Nani ignored him n didnt evn hide her dislike, Lavanya stayed clear off his way, Akash only talked business, Mama mami cudnt care less...but Di his most important Di always looked at him longingly.
He knew that she knew something was wrong. He would never let her figure that out was his resolve n so far he has succeeded in it.
Di served him with his usual glass of juice n he was about to drink it when he remembered how she mixed something in his glass.
He stopped mid way to stare at it when Anjali shook him and asked him if something was wrong. Did he not like the juice.
He said it was nothing n was about to drink it when someone uttered her name..."Khushi". This was too much. BANGGG!!!
THe juice glass crashed to the ground and cold fury took over his face. Lavanya was looking terrified. It was her who spoke the name.
Nani and Anjali both shouted at once. Everyone else looked too shocked to say anything...
"Chotey..!!!...what's d matter with you...have u lost all the manners...im still alive u see n ill never let",nani's stopped in disbelief as he has already started to climbback to his room.
"Chotey...Chotey..listen to me" screamed Anjali but it fell on deaf ears.
He went back to his room n banged d door shut...he was pacing up n down.
What was he thinking??...he is losing control..all he wanted to clear the mess he had created on Diwali night by going so close to her...n now he ws upto his eyeballs in mess.
He drank a glass of water to soothe his nerves. It didnt help, he drank another..n another...
He was feeling claustrophobic today...very very claustrophobic...he was sweating a lot...glasses of water were doing nothing.
He opened the glass doors which led to the garden and removed the curtains as much as he could lettin fresh air come in...panting with all the effort...it was nothing still he was tired.
His breathing became heavy, sweat droplets appeared on his forehead..he thought he might had fever.
He just couldnt breathe...
And then it struck him like the bolt of lightening...today is the day..."she is getting married".
