Engrossed in her thoughts exhaling the pleasant smell she bewildered at a sudden distraction.."Don't worry,they'll grow soon." Zaroon brushed his lips against her ears and assuring her in his husky voice. Falak turned around to see him with a wide smile that she has worked hard upon to see on his face.
"Lijiye madam aap ki ice-cream,2 scoops one chocolate and one pineapple...Uff kitni pagal ho tum,koi dhang ka combo nahi mila." " Pagal hun tabhie to tu se pyaar kia hai,hamara combo bh to aesa hai!" She galnced at him with mirthful eyes."Or meri baat suno mein ne 4 soops ka kaha tha,yeh kya hai zaroon,this z so not fair.." She groaned. "Chup chap kha lo wrna jo hai wo bh nahi mile ga,Aik to doctor ne tumhe pehle mna kia hai,yeh do scoops bh ganeemat samajh ke kha lo.." She looked at him with umbraged eyes to which he replied..."Tum bh mere sath aesa krti ho jab mein bemaar hota hun...come on yaar plz ab mood off mat krna plz."
He knew how to pacify her,how to cheer her,he was doing this since 1 year.Zaroon embraced her in his arms,pecked her on cheeks,caressing her face with his suave looks. "Pata hai falak mein soch raha tha kyun na hum next month Australia chalen,tum apne ghar walon se bh mil lena or hamara 3rd honeymoon bh ho jai ga."
"Pagal ho gay ho zaroon" She looked at him with dismay,why he always had to come with these discussions,WHY...Controlling her angst she replied,"Hum abhi last month to gay thay,zaroon plz office ko bh thoda time de dia kro." "Kya krun jb se tu mili ho dil h nahi lgta kaam mein,mein kuch nahi janta hum jain gay,infact mein ne to hamari life ke saare holidays plan kr liye hain,mein or tum apne bachon ke sath kahan jain gay mein ne to yeh bh plan kr lia hai." "Acha or un bachon ki maa kon hi gi yeh bh decide kr lia hai."
"Kese baatein kr rahi ho yaar.." "Sach keh ri hun mein zaroon...plzz sachai se nazren mat churao,tum achi tarahn jaante ho mein tumhare sath next month to kya shaid next week bh kahin na jaa paon..." Placing her finger on his lips she signalled him to let her speak this time."Tum kyun nahi samjahte sachai se nazren chrane se sach nahi badal sakta.Zaroon yeh saansein jo mein le rahi hun na,yeh kisi ganeemat se kam nahi,I am dying zaroon,i am dying,why don't u just understand this thing..." Nahi,,nahi aesa nahi hai,falak doctor ne kaha tha.." "kis se jhoot bol rahe ho zaroon mujh se ya apne aap se"
Zaroon and falak's romantic ice-cream date was spoiled,those pain-filled eyes hurt her but she was helpless.She didn't had any control on her life.Wiping away his tears she gave him a smile."Mein tumhe kuch nahi hone doon ga,dekhna tumhari zindagi chura loon ga khuda se,tum dekhna chura loon ga tumhari zindagi." He couldn't control that tide of tears awaiting to burst at any moment.
"Please falak please,dekho tum to itni achi ho sab ki madad krti ho,tumhari ammi kehti th tum Allah ki favourite ho,plz tum un se kaho tumhe mujh se na cheenen,mein phir se wrna andherey ki agosh mein a jaon ga," "Zaroon,zaroon plzz chup ho jao," She pecked his lips to give him a moment of placidity."So jao,raat bohat ho gi hai,,hmmm subah meri jaan ne office bh jana hai."
She snuggled into him,her arms tangled around him,resting her face in crook of his neck,inhaling his masculine cologne just in case if this was her last night with him,her last night in his arms..She wanted to with him just.How much she tried to never come up with these discussions Zaroon always urged,Him not believing that her survival chances were no more traumatised her.Closing her eyes with few tears she fell to sleep..
Zaroon osculated her face assuring her that he won't detached her from him.With a last buss on her plumped dry lips he closed his eyes praying to Allah to grant his love with life,take away his but give her her life.With an anticipation he moved her closer to him that she'll herself make his breakfast tomorrow and he'll be able to her beautiful smile yet again.He had faith in his love and hope that she will live,she had to.
