Part 14
Precisely annoyed with hidden purposes of the joyful screams outside in the park she finally thought to give a halt to her vain longing to sleep more..She had been sleeping for hours from the midnight... huh!! That was an eventful night... except for where she was allowed to keep her head on the GHOST'S shoulder and hold GHOST'S hands in hers she hadn't liked a penny about that night..
She drifted backward with the pillow supporting her skin at the back, trying to grasp at least any clue about the happiness spread all around her in this not so early morning.. She got up from her bed and moved slowly to the window.. The screams were more close now.. She moved again, her eyes widening with every step as she was eventually out of the deep slumber.. She rested her hands on the wall and looked outside.. It Stunned her.. She was numb...Her hands lost the soft grip on the wall and she stepped back involuntarily... however she still was facing the outside view but her eyes were scanning the floor below, they were forming fresh drops in them, the drops of guilt-filled tears...
Suddenly she felt a twitch at her calf muscles owing to the touch with a hand on her cheek.. She turned back to welcome the shock..
"Happy Holi sanyukta!!"... Aarush rubbed again his hand full of pink color on sanyukta's cheek and smiled wide with shamelessness plastered over his face..
"T..tuum..??" she fumbled between her words..
"I'm sorry sanyukta... I behaved a monster yesterday night.. amm.. But is that my fault?? I mean come on yaar sanyu.. sir pe chot lagi thi yaar kuchh to asar hoga na... apne best friend ko maaf nhi karegi..??" he tried to be as genuine as possible to manipulate the innocent soul like always, whereas his mind was all set with an unknown plan which still was to be executed..
She already was in search of such words from her bestie that a mere apology was more than enough to her.. She nodded with her eyes and a faint smile thus accepting his apology..
"That's like my buddy!! Toh now when everything is sorted out we are gonna rock this holi celebrations.. Right??.. Come on now!!" he got a hold at her hand and almost dragged her to the exit of her room never realizing the girl's state of mind..
" Aarush!!.. I can't.. She whispered to herself when a teardrop finally fell off her left eye..
" mujhe kuchh nhi sunna sanyukta!! Ok.. You want some time..?? amm.. Ok but be soon han.. Am waiting sanyu.. jaldi aana??"... He obviously failed to notice her tears today and ran to outside..
She sat on the corner of the bed.. Every time she would sweep them her eyes were ready with a fresh pair of tears from her eyes.. She just could not stand this moment.. It was so hard to get out of that guilt and here the day was all back to horror her with unacceptable memories..
She just wanted HIM right now.. Only HE had that might to let her free of that guilt and those memories.. She searched for him, almost everywhere.. But no.. HE was nowhere.. When she wanted HIM the most he was nowhere.. She cupped her eyes under her palms and cried her heart out..
"I.. killed.. Him!! IF I HAD SURRENDERED MYSELF, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN ALIVE TODAY.. I JUST..COULD NOT SAVE HIM.." She burst out crying like anything..
"IT WAS MEANT TO BE SANYUKTA.." She heard the GHOST while entering her room wall crossing across it all together.. She jumped out of that corner of the bed and hugged him tight shedding the left over waters from her eyes..
"I Killed him Randhir.. I could not even see him.. He was all colored with holi colors at his face.. I could not see why he wanted to save me... The goons wanted my life but He died while saving me.. He got shot at his..." She parted slowly from his hold.. Her eyes twinkled with sudden assumptions or probably realization.. They were still so close to each other.. She had stopped weeping now.. Her forehead was not furrowed with creases.. Her eyes were stuck at the stain... the STAIN AT HIS CHEST.. Her mouth a bit opened as she had finally decoded the mystery..
FLASHBACK
Yeah.. It was HIM.. HE Died in last year holi.. WHILE saving HER.. He had been stalking her from a long time..She was never aware of untold intensions of few people around her.. But HE knew that she was a target.. IT was the first time that he Came in front of her.. But she never recognized HIM, as he was all painted with holi colors on his face.. The celebrations were at its peak.. He wanted her to know that he WAS Randhir... THE ONLY HEIR TO SHEKHAWAT DYNASTY.. Her Childhood friend.. HE had thousand things to share with her.. But he never got a chance as she was planned to be killed today.. And he had to save her anyhow.. AND when she finally got to notice an unknown SAVIOUR with a painted face it was too late to do that.. HE WAS DEAD... AND THERE SHE WAS DRAGGED TO A SAFER PLACE BY HER FRIENDS Aarush AND Neel as the sounds of gunshots had created a Horrifying atmosphere all around.. She wanted to see HIM, she wanted to make an attempt to save the SAVIOUR but her friends never allowed her to do that..
FLASHBACK ENDS
"IT.. WAS YOU!!... IT.. WAS..." she whispered again to herself her eyes not leaving the site of that stain on his chest where normally a human heart exists... she kept her hand on that red and a lone tear escaped her eyes..
"I won the battle that day.. I SAVED YOU SANYUKTA.." He removed the tears with his right hand while his left one went to cup her right cheek unconsciously.. She tilted her cheek into his palm..They moved closer to dissipate the air between their bodies... she closed her eyes expecting him to sooth her pain in a way she always wanted him to..And he did that..He smashed his lips on hers in order to swallow up the guilt-filled waves inside her...she moved into him more, their chests collided with her one hand still at his non-existing heart..His right hand swayed in air to shut the door behind him with a thud... he did not want any disturbance as he was all indulged in intenerating her nerves.. He closed his eyes too now.. They were lost in each other..She allowed him to assault her soft cells with his tongue..
He was dry, she was delicious.. He was cyanosed, she was flushed with blood inside her.. He licked her lower lip, it tasted of roses and she bit at his upper lip but failed to cause a pain at his already dead cells... his hands gripped her more rightfully now..She never moaned his name but grasped his waist.. She did not want it to end so soon.. He made some patterns inside her mouth with his tongue and she smiled inside that blissful act of his.. HE WAS A GHOST, SHE WAS A LIFE BUT WHAT MATTERED THE MOST WAS THAT THEY BOTH WERE A HALF OF THE OTHER.. THEY COULD MAKE A 'ONE' UNITING THEIR HALVES...
