!~~You Are My Khushi~~!
He sat there depressed, not knowing what to do! He felt helpless and completely broken! The words he had mouthed to her, his frustrations which he had let out infront of her so harshly' It wasn't just a feel of remorse, but seeing her hurt was something even more deeper that it caused him physical pain.
So unfortunate, he anyhow cant take them back..but he should do something!
Agitated, he stood up from the couch! Yes! He need to do something'He couldn't see her leave..! 'Khushi is mine..and I'll make it all clear' He muttered to himself, as if those words made his own feelings clear to him! Something, he've been avoiding for so long..and he couldn't hide anymore..he just didn't want to..! Its already too late..and he cant watch his own life departing away..!
He walked near to his cupboard, to have a look at his girl, his life, his only soul..which always brightened his mood even during the most worst situations and consoled his self, in a way he could never understand!
Before he could take the frame in his hands, his eyes suddenly fell on a passport!
'Passport?'
He opened the first cover, to reveal a ticket to Scotland!
'Khushi's passport? And Scotland??' He thinks for a while, before it all sinks for him about the Scotland issue!
Looking at her flawless, innocent face..itself brings a smile to his face, brightening up his insides!
'Birthday??'
'What? Tomorrow its Khushi's b'day?'
'Oh lord! And I didn't even ask her about it ever? Cant get more worse!' He cursed himself.
He suddenly opens his eyes wide, as if an idea struck him!
'It isn't late yet khushi..you are mine and we are meant to be together..and by this night, I'll make you mine..for eternities!' saying, he smiles.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She walked towards her cupboard, to take out the last set of her dress from his cupboard.. 'their cupboard' but may be not anymore. He had told, she is the biggest pain, regret of his life.. though, that was never her intention, may be he was right! What have I ever given him..other than pain and frustrations?!
Even though she would never see him again or will not get a second chance, his memories would always live with her as her biggest treasure. His warmth would always stay with her.
Wiping her tears, which continued to flow freely even then, she continued!
'Khushi'..' called a voice, making her turn around..expectantly!
'Nanhe ji' she said lowering her eyes, as it wasn't the face she desired to see just one last time before leaving!
'Khushi..this is for you!' He replied, offering her a paper, what seemed like an envelope!
'for me? What is this?'
'I don't know! Arnav asked me to give it to you! Nani ji is calling me..i'll see you' he said, walking out..closing the door slightly behind him.
'Arnav jee??' Confused khushi'tried to open the envelope quickly.
Her every pore filled with anticipation and joy.. to listen to those last words from him, what he had to say..before bidding goodbye forever!
'Khushi'.' She smiled, looking at the first letter..she could hear him call her..Yes!she could feel his warmth even through his words.
'Please be at royal garden park at 10! Wanna talk to you!'
'10 baje??'
'He wants to talk to me? About what?' She was SOO confused!
'Should I go, or not? What if looking at him, will stop me from leaving like always. '
'But what if he really wanna talk, what if it's a second chance for me?'
Yes! She should go..! Or else, she will have to live a life full of regrets! If he had to say more, she had to listen to it all..that was her punishment!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A white merc screeched to a sudden halt, outside the park!
A girl, in a peach and cream chudidar stepped out of the car, adjusting her dupatta!
'Why did arnav jee called me here? What is that, he want to talk about?' these questions repeated on her mind for 1000th time, since evening!
She moved ahead, slow, tiny steps at a time.
'It is so dark in here' she wasn't scared though! Her biggest fear, was to get away from his..which did happen. What did she have to worry about now??
She knew, he was there somewhere in the dark. She could just feel', and it raised her heartbeat like always!
She could see a single candle lighted..brightening up the whole garden, from far away..she continued!
As she reached near to it, she could see two letters placed on the bottom of the 'diya' like thing. And she took one in her hands.
'just like this single candle brightens up the whole garden, you light up my whole world, my every pore..!'
'Did I read that right? Or am I dreaming, lyk always..i'll wake up from the dream..and I wont find Arnav jee anymore, beside me'
She closes her eyes, to prove it wrong! And believe in this moment, in this only moment! 'Forever'
Her hands trembled while she attempted to pick the other. Her every pore filled with anticipation and pure bliss.. she wasn't confused anymore!
He says'she reads..,
'Khushi,
I don't know how to express my every or any feelings for that matter, in words! I've always managed to score a big fat ZERO in that! And I know, by talking more than I always do..i've hurted you so much, and I cant take it back with a word of sorry! At a moment of depression, sadness, helplessness..i ended up letting out all my frustrations and pain. I don't know, but..i just couldn't control myself. I felt as if, I am losing my everything..and you decided to take away even my soul with you.., which was the only thing left, when you thought of leaving home..leaving 'me'. I knw I've hurt you Khushi. But please, don't give me the biggest punishment by leaving me.
In Those every moment spent with you, I've truly lived..there was happiness, a bliss..a warmth.. in a way I could never understand. And when you were not there, I longed to see you and listen to you. I neva knew when your irritating chatterin turned out to sound musical to my ears. I don't know when, how..i started feeling a bliss, and thinking of you, I had smile plastered on my face throughout the day.
I don't know how to exactly make you understand, that how much you mean to me..that it hurts physically, even while thinking of letting you go! I cant lose you Khushi..i cant! And if I'll lose you, then I'll lose myself just because, I've found my real self in you, when you were with me. And you are my 'Khushi'.. my everything!
Your's only
Arnav!
She held the letter tightly in her palms. She just couldn't believe..!! Her heart had stopped beating. She left a long deep breath, as she didn't know'when she stopped breathing while reading the letter! A tear fell from her eyes free and continues!
'Khushi..please don't leave me?' A voice pleaded.
She opened her eyes, and looked at Arnav who stood infront..10 steps away..!! Through the thin beam of light..she could clearly notice that guilt and pain.
Not able to control herself anymore, she ran towards him bridging the distance.
He enveloped her in his arms tight, wanting to hold on to her..and arrest this moment for eternity.
He slowly disengaged her from himself, and held her face in his palms.. 'Khushi'.I'.'
She kept a finger on his lips, as there was no need of any words at this moment! There wasn't anymore guilt, pain'they felt complete and happy in each other's arms.
'Arnav ji'.I Love you!' She said, looking into his eyes..where she had already got the reply.., filling his every pore with glorious specks of joy.
'Happy b'day Khushi'.' And the rest of the words, vanished in the thin air' as he enveloped her lips with his own!
------------------------------------------------------
Would you dance,
if I asked you to dance,Would you run, and never look back?Would you cry, if you saw me crying?And would you save my soul, tonight?
Okay! Now this was my version of the surprise!😆Hope, atleast during this surprise..Arnav will let out his feelings and tell her what he wanted to say from soo long!😳
