Here goes another random os... But I'm not really happy with this one... It didn't turn out the way I wanted it to be... So a bit disappointed... Moreover I seriously don't have time to write it again, so posting it the way it is... Would like to know what you think about this piece of writing.
"How much will you drink abeer...??? You already had a plenty dude..." Nisaar said taking a sip of beer.
"What am I supposed to do nisaar...??? You tell me... I can't lose her..." Abeer said in a tone which reflected his inner turmoil.
"You are not losing her for God sake... By the way tell me who gave you this stupid idea... You love her and she loves you... End of the story..." Nisaar answered abeer.
"No... Its not the end... Though I wish it to be... You have no idea nisaar... Distance... Long distance never works... A relationship 99% fails..." Abeer said gulping down the remaining content of the beer bottle.
"Long distance... Arghh... What...??? She lives with us... Under the same roof..." exclaimed nisaar.
"I know but for how long... Why am I graduated...?? This is the saddest day of my life..."
"I know... That's why our remaining batchmates are partying and making their farewell memorable... But you... You are sulking and cursing..." Nisaar replied.
"You go and party with them... I can sulk alone also... I have beer... Abeer with beer.." Abeer said making an irritated face.
Nisaar shook this head and took a deep breath.
"Relax... Bhai listen to me... Meher loves you..." said nisaar.
"Woh pta hai mujhe... Aage bhi toh bol... Meher loves you... Meher loves you..." Abeer cut nisaar in between.
"Toh... Why will she leave you..??? You have been in a committed relationship for two long years... Now why will anything wrong happen... I don't get it.."
"Einstein we will be gone... Aur meher yahan hogi akeli... Mujhse door... Agar usko kisise pyaar ho gya toh..."
"Toh..." Nisaar asked in curiosity.
"Toh kya... Mera kya hoga... Main toh maar hi jaunga nisaar... Ek dum bina sindoor ke suhagan types... Ek dum akela... I love her way too much... I will die without her... Main usse dur reh nahi paunga... Nisaar... Kuch kar yaar..." said abeer emotionally.
"Sindoor bin suhagan... Haha... ROFL... Abeer" nisaar literally fell on the floor and laughed till his stomach hurted.
"Majaak mat bna... Hurrr... Wait a second..."
Nisaar stopped laughing and looked at abeer questioningly.
"What is going inside that brain of yours...???"
"I'm getting married..." Abeer declared and made his way downstairs from the terrace.
Nisaar shockingly kept looking at the place where abeer stood.
"Getting what..." whispered nisaar and followed abeer.
Nisaar directly went to his room to find abeer. When he couldn't find him, he went towards meher's room.
Abeer was outside the door knocking it. Meher opened it with her eyes still closed and when she looked at abeer, she smiled. Abeer stood grinning at the door and meher who was still half asleep hugged abeer. Abeer happily welcomed her in his arms and this time he literally held his entire world in his arms.
Nisaar saw them and returned to his room, giving them space.
"Abeer tumne pi hai.." Meher asked with her eyes now wide opened.
Abeer nodded his head in positive and giggled.
"Were you out with your friends...??? Yes yes I know... College ke rockstar ho tum... But itni kyun...đĄ You are drunk..." Meher complained and broke the hug.
"Sorry... But I have something to say baby..."
"You go and sleep now... Abeer I don't like when you drink... It reminds me of every single time I saw dad returning home drunk..." said meher closing her eyes.
"I won't drink... I promise... But listen to me first.."
"Hmm... Say..."
"I have never been in love... But now I am... I really love you meher... Literally to the moon and back... So Ms. Meher Purohit, will you marry me...??" Abeer asked going on his knees.
"What...???" Meher couldn't help but shout.
Nisaar and shasha came running within minutes.
"What's up guys...??? Its midnight..." Shasha said.
Abeer kept looking at meher and meher stood numb like a statue, her back against her bedroom door... Supporting her.
"Kya kiya tune abeer...??" asked nisaar.
"Propose..." Abeer replied with a grin on his face.
"She is already your girlfriend... You guys had alcohol without me... How unfair...!! Kyun guys...??" asked shasha in a "why-didnt-you-tell-me" tone.
"I proposed her for marriage..." replied abeer.
Meher's silence was now making abeer worried. Didnt she love him enough, to marry him... Or wasnt he enough for her.
"Meher... Baby I asked you something... Will you marry me...??" said abeer.
Shasha looked at nisaar unbelievingly and nisaar shrugged his shoulders in response.
"I can't marry you..." Meher whispered after gaining her recovering from the shock.
This time it was abeer's chance to get shocked.
"Don't you love me meher..?? Tell me..." Abeer pushed meher and trapped her between the door and his arms.
"Abeer let's not talk now... Talk in the morning..." Shasha suggested.
"Guys go... Please..." Abeer replied.
Shasha and nisaar went quietly to their respective rooms.
"Meher..." Abeer leaned close to meher.
"No abeer... Shadi... Nahi "
"Why..?? Are you not sure about us...?? Vishwaas nahi h mere pyaar pe..." Abeer asked meher looking straight into her brown eyes.
"Im only 20... "
"So...??"
"I have responsibilities abeer..."
"So...??"
"I can't leave my family like that... They have great expectations from me..."
"You don't have to leave them... Just accept me in your life and family... That's it..."
"Abeer please... Be reasonable..."
"Main tumhe chod kar Delhi nahi jaunga... Main tumse dur nahi reh sakta... Meher mera pyaar ho tum baby... I just don't want to lose you... I just want to be with you... What's wrong in that...???"
"Galat nahi hai... I love you too but..."
"I want it be the other way around meher... I prefer 'but I love you' more than 'I love you but' "
"Abeer let me graduate... Uske baad... After that we will think about getting married..."
"Meher please baby... Ek saal meher... We are talking about a whole fu**ing year... What if you fall out of love...?? What if after this one year, you come and tell me that you love someone else... What will I do then...?? I can't lose you... Why don't you understand..?? I need you to be with me... I need to see you around me... Thats the only thing that keeps me sane... Main pagal ho jaunga tumse alag rehke... Please say yes... Please meher..." Abeer this time pulled meher close to him.
"You think I will fall out of love that easily.. You are the only guy who ever became a part of my life... The only guy to be in such proximity... You are my one and only... My prince charming... Don't you trust me..." Meher asked with teary eyes.
"I trust you more than I trust myself... But yeah dil hai na mera... Yeah darta hai meher... It can't risk losing you... Understand chashmish.."
"You also understand... We are too young to be married... Marriage is a huge responsibility and I'm still in college... You just graduated... This isn't the right time... We need to settle down in life first... " meher tried explaining her situation.
Abeer stepped away from meher and stormed into his room angrily.
Next day, meher thought abeer would wake up and forget what happened. But abeer gave meher and everyone silent treatment... Silent treatment which was just not abeer's style.
"I made pancakes for you..." Meher offered abeer his favourite blueberry pancakes.
Abeer ignored meher and grabbed an apple instead.
"Your coffee... Lots of milk and sugar..."
Meher again offered and abeer again ignored.
"Bhai cmon don't be so rude..." Nisaar whispered to abeer.
Abeer glared at nisaar and went to his room. Meher felt really bad and after controlling her emotions, went into abeer's room.
"What are you doing abeer...???" asked meher.
"Packing... I miss home..." Abeer replied throwing his clothes from the wardrobe to the bed.
"Abeer please..."
"Please what...?? I also requested you something... But you refused... So be it... I'm going back today only..." Abeer replied looking at meher for the first time.
His heart dropped when he looked that look on her face. She looked heartbroken and helpless. The meher who was always strong and up headed was now heartbroken, timid, weak and helpless.
Meher sat on one corner of the bed and closed her eyes. Tears rolled down her cheeks despite her trying to be strong enough.
"I have a family to take care of... My father left my mother 12 years back... He is now happy with his second wife and a son... But our family is incomplete... My mother is broken abeer... My bua... She never got married because she had to support us... Responsibilities took all her life... She has only me, mum and tarun... I can't leave them... I have some dreams... Some responsibilities towards them... And after getting married, it would be really difficult... I will never be able to lead a happy life thinking I ignored my family or I didn't do enough things for the family who loved me and supported me throughout..."
By the end of the statement, meher broke into tears of helplessness.
Abeer ran to meher and wiped her tears. He cupped her cheeks and said "I will love them more than my family... After all they are the reason I have you in my life... I will never stop you from doing anything... You can trust me on that baby... In fact its my responsibility to fulfill every dream of yours... We will together give our family everything... Everything possible... Do you trust me...??"
"Yes..." Meher replied with a smile.
"Toh bas... Tum ready ho ab...??"
"Huh..."
"Let's get married baby..." Abeer cooed taking meher in his arms.
"Ok... But you will not leave me now... I need you with me..."
"Promise... Main toh aapke charano ki dhool hoon swami... Tum jahan main wahan..."
"Hehe... I love you..."
"I love too..." Abeer replied and kissed meher's cheek.
"Ab toh packing cancel na... Movie chale koi..??" asked meher.
"Packing toh hamesha se hi cancel thi baby... Main pagal hoon jo apne item ko akele chod kar jaun..." Abeer replied with a smirk.
"Haww..."
Meher started hitting abeer with a pillow and soon a pillow fight followed.
