One day a young boy named Raghu and a beautiful young girl named Antara fell in love. But Raghu came from a poor family. Antara's parents weren't too happy.
So Raghu decided not only court Antara but to court her parents as well. In time the parents saw he was a good man and worthy of their daughters hands.
But there was another problem. Raghu was a soldier! Soon war broke out and he was sent overseas for one year. The week before he left, he knelt down on his knees and asked his lady love," Antara. .will you marry me?" Antara wiped her tears and said yes and they were engaged. They agreed when he got back in one year, they would get married. Raghu took blushing Antara in his arms and kissed her redened cheeks. Bidding good byes Raghu left.
But tragedy struck! A few days after Raghu left, Antara had a motor vehicle accident. It was a head-on collision.
When she woke up in the hospital, she saw her father and mother crying. Immediately she knew something was wrong.
She later found out that she suffered brain injury. The part of her brain that controlled her face muscles was damaged. Her once lovely face was now disfigured. She cried her heart out when she saw herself in the mirror. "Yesterday, I was beautiful. "Today, I'm a monster". Her body was also covered with ugly wounds.
Right there and then she decided to release Raghu from their promise. She knew he wouldn't want her anymore. She would forget about him and never see him again.
For one year, Raghu wrote many letters-but Antara wont reply. He phoned her many times but she never returned his calls.
After one year, the mother walked into her room and announced. "He's back from the war". Antara shouted,"No! Please dont tell him about me. Don't tell him I'm here!"
The mother said, " He's getting married, " and handed her the wedding invitation. Antara's heart sank. She knew she still loved him-but she has to forget him now..forever.
With great sadness she opened the wedding invitation. And then she saw her name on it!
Confused, she asked, "what is this?
That was when Raghu entered her room with a bouquet of flowers. He knelt beside her and asked."will you marry me? "
Antara covered her face with her hands and said. "I'm ugly!"
Raghu said, "without your permission your mother sent me your photos. When I saw your photos, I realized that nothing has changed. You're still the only person I fell in love with. You're still as beautiful as ever. Because I love you Antara! Raghu opened his arms wide. Antara ran into his embrace and they spent their lives in each other's arms..forever and ever.
Guyz I dont know what I penned down. My apologies if this made you cry. It's one of those days when I feel sad so I write sad stories. But you guys chill..see you later! Mwaah!
