leave anything for the London dance school' Kabir's words had pierced Nisha's
heart. She walked up to the photo frame which hung on their bedroom wall, the
only solid memory she had of their wedding. She stood there caressing the photo
and recollecting all the moments they had together. The day they first met, the
day they became friends, the day they got married, the day they fell in love. No
the day when I fell in love she corrected herself. "Nisha times up lets go" Kabir
called out from the living room. Nisha was jolted back to reality. "Yes times
up Kabir and I cannot even ask for some extra time" she said to his photo her
hand still on his side of the photo. She could see only her reflection on the
photo frame reminding her that she was alone in this. She tried to blink her
tears which had threatened to fall. "Coming" her voice almost cracked. "What
were you doing in there" Kabir inquired. " I was just packing the past" Nisha
whispered to herself. " Did you say something" Kabir asked her with narrowed
eyes. " Yeah I said I was packing my stuff" " What? Why? Where are you going?"
he seemed confused. " You don't need to worry I am not coming with you..
remember I can't dance" Nisha chuckled. "oh come on Nisha I am serious" Kabir glared at her
annoyed with her weak attempt to change the topic. " oh k oh k I am going back home"
she rolled her eyes indication her packed luggage. " Home isn't this your home"
Kabir seemed to have taken offence from her statement. " This was your home Kabir
where we stayed together it was never mine" Kabir flinched at her words. " Nisha
this house is yours as much as it is ..." Kabir your getting late for your
flight lets go" Nisha cut him in the middle picked up her bags and walked out
of the house. Kabir picked up his bag and reluctantly followed her. Nisha had
one last look at the house and tried to gather all the memories she could from
the house, she had grown to love because of Kabir. She locked the house and
walked away to the car. Kabir drove the car whistling all the way till they
arrived to the airport. He is so happy to achieve his dream I can't even ask
him to stop, cannot even tell him the truth that I have fallen head over heels
in love with him. They quietly walked inside the airport and waited for the announcement
of the flight. " So Nisha will you miss me" Kabir asked out of the blue. His eyes
eager to know her answer. Nisha felt as
if Kabir had just pressed a fresh nail in her heart. " No I will not " Nisha's
eyes were shallow. Kabir's lips parted at her sudden negative response. He tried
to search for some emotion in her eyes but there was none. "kabir I ..." Before Nisha
could continue they were interrupted with the flight announcement. Nisha walked
away without looking at Kabir. Nisha what were you doing you could have messed
up everything she said to herself. " So wifey for the last time ... Bye" Nisha
felt giddy at Kabir bidding adieu to her. "Don't worry Nisha we all only part
to meet again" he said sensing her tension. "Yes Kabir but we will not meet
again" Kabir smirked at her response mimicked a salute with two fingers and
took a few steps backwards. He suddenly turned around and disappeared into the
crowd without even glancing back at her. Nisha was astonished at his behavior. How
could he be so cold. Not once did he feel anything about leaving me behind. Nisha's
last hopes of Kabir feeling something for her were crushed by Kabir's cold behavior.
She felt like crying her heart out but tears wouldn't escape her eyes as her
heart was already into shreds.
