It was an usual hectic day in office...tiring...but along with this it was a very special one as well...the day when she finally came into his life...the day when she accepted her feelings for him...the day when her entrance made his life brighter than before...the best birthday of his life...when she belonged to him.
After all briefing and having last meeting with board he left office ...it was raining heavily...he quickly headed to his car... And drove back home...with every passing meter, his heart became more and more heavy...as if every beat was asking him not to go home...begging some time in peace...giving some reason to breathe...he was so lost in himself that when he reached home he didn't notice.
Flashback:
He was standing next to the door...his white shirt became transparent as he was drenched in rain... and was talking loudly to Rey ...suddenly he noticed the door ...it was half open...he thanked Rey for wishing him...and entered ...The very next moment he noticed the heavenly view present before his eyes ... The room was decorated with flowers ...and lighted up with candles...everything was perfectly arranged...he was amazed and looked around with confusion written on his face...thousands of questions kept arising in his mind...he kept his bag aside...took two steps ahead ...still wondering who did all this for him.
His questions and running thoughts stopped when he saw the answer standing right in front of him...an angel in white...her face glowing more than the moon glowing in the Sky...her eyes were filled with joy and dreams of future...her lips were perfectly curved with a content smile... The Sharon who used to be vulnerable in front of him was more confident today...
He tilted his head a bit sideways and tried looking in her eyes...but before he could do so she looked into his eyes and said... "i will give all the answers today...but first u go and change...or you will fall ill...before he could ask anything...she held his hand and pushed him in washroom.
After a few minutes as he came out of washroom...the view in front of his eyes was not less than a dream...his room was decorated with blue orchids ...his favorite...and lighted with scented candles...sweet fragrance of orchids and scented candle making environment more blissful, dreamy and romantic at the same time.
He was happy...but was more curious to know what made Sharon to do all this...what in her mind...and for what she is here...although he always knew Sharon has feelings for him but never accepted it, she always refused she has feelings for him...always rejected his proposal of being together...then why...why on earth she is here at his house that too so late.
His chain of thoughts broke with her sweet voice "u back...good...come" she was holding a chocolate cake in her hands ...and signaled him to follow her...she placed the cake on the bed and turned to him..."you still there...arrey baba come..." she said... He shook his head came near to her "umm..wo...Shar..."he tried to say but before he could complete his sentence Sharon kept her finger on his lips and said "Not now Swayum...Am here...and won't go before giving answers to all your questions...but first can we just cut this cake...am hungry" to which Swayum just smiled and nodded.
They both kneeled down...Swayum picked knife and was about to cut cake... "oh god Swayum ...what you doing...aise thodi karte hai...she said while stopping him...first close your eye...make a wish...then blow candle and then cut it" she completed in one breath...explained things like a 5 year old kid with her hands moving around.
Swayum just admired her ...with a smile pasted on his face...she looked more cute with her innocent antics...he like a obedient student followed the steps made a wish...blows the candle...and finally cut the cake...he took a piece to feed her...she took the piece from his hand...and fed him...he smiled..."you won't eat...you were hungry if m not wrong..."he asked... Sharon came near him and said "oh yes...i will"...she leant forward and licked cream which was spread over his lips...Swayum was in complete shock...confusion written on his face.
Sharon moved away ...looked into his eyes...and she finally started giving his answers..."Am tired of running away from own my feelings Swayum...I always knew I like you...there is a very special place for you in my heart...I dreamt of you every single night... I don't know when ...why...how... I fell in love with you...but never had courage to face all this... today as it is a very special day...I thought to face ...and confess my feelings...and love for you ...yes I love you...I love you Swayum...she continued ...actually the fact is that...I always loved you...the thing is i never accepted it...and hurt you innumerous time...by the time tear started flowing from her eyes...m sorry...m sorry for all those time when i hurt you...when I..." Swayum stopped her by placing his lips on hers...he sneak his right hand around her waist and pulled her close ...he kissed her gently with all his love...the kiss went passionate with each passing second...after few minutes they broke kiss breathing heavily...Swayum went to her ears and whispered "I dint know my wish would come true so soon...I love you too Sharon...
Present day:
He was standing in front of Sharon's photo..."WITHOUT YOU...life is not life Sharon...why didn't you take me along with you" He spoke out crying badly...
It's been 3 years...but memories are still fresh in his heart...his days passed working like a machine...and nights killing him...she died...he survived...because he survived...he dies everyday...
