I'm so depressed about Thursday's episode that i wrote this last night. Something along these lines should happen today otherwise i think i'm going to go insane.
She ran. Her uncontrollable tears cascaded down her face. She didn't hear everybody calling her. Only his voice reverberated in her head and all she wanted to do was escape from her skin. Why did this have to happen to her? She came to a stop at the park and sat down on the end of the bench. It was a warm night with a gentle breeze that seemed to say everything was ok. Yet how could it be? How could he marry her she questioned? How was he going to marry her twisted half-sister? There was no empathy left for Ayesha anymore. She's got what she wanted. She felt so defeated in this moment.
He sat on the end of the bench and looked out at the sky. It was a clear sky and a few stars could be seen twinkling down at them. She sat at the end of the bench with her head in her hand. Seeing her like this broke his heart. She was his best friend.
"Why did she do this to me Neev?"
"Prachi, let's go home and talk about this." He said as he put his hand on her shoulder.
"No!" She said defiantly. She stood up and started pacing. "I'm not going back, I can't go back. How can I? I give up Neev, I don't care anymore."
"You don't mean that, I know you don't."
She flopped down on the soft grass. "What am I going to do Neev?" she said looking up at him. "I can't tell him everything or... or..." she hiccupped. Her tears fell once more. Neev sat down beside her and gave her a hug. "I'm so confused Neev, what do I do?"
"Come home. We'll sort everything out there."
Reluctantly she allowed herself to be pulled up and he led the way to his car. The journey home was quiet. How could Ayesha do this her and Neev? They were still married.
As they entered the house, everything was eerily quiet. No one was around. Just then they heard someone approaching them.
"Hi Di!"
"Bobby?" said a confused Prachi. She ran towards him and hugged him tight. Her tears fell again.
"Di, what's wrong?" He looked over at Neev.
"What are you doing back?" Prachi asked avoiding his question.
"I've got 2 weeks off so I thought I'd come home. Now what's going on? Where is everyone?"
Just then Ramu Kaka came in with a worried expression on his face. "Prachi beta, Milind sab's been rushed to the hospital. I don't really know what happened but you've...
Prachi was already halfway to the door. She grabbed the car keys and headed straight for the car. She drove like a manic. All she thought of was Milind and if he was ok. What happened to him that he's in hospital? As soon as she arrived, she saw her whole family outside his room. She rushed to her mum. Neev and Bobby came a few seconds later.
"Ma, what happened? Is he ok? Can I see him?" Prachi bombarded her mother.
"You can stop your acting. You don't have to worry about him anymore, he's going to marry me!" said Ayesha with a twisted smile on her face. Before Prachi could retort back the door to Milind's room opened and the doctor stepped out.
"He's in a stable condition but he's still unconscious. You can go and see him now."
Prachi rushed to Milind's side and held his hand. "Please wake up," she cried silently. Ayesha tried to get close to Milind but Neev held her back.
"Prachi beta, I'm sorry. I told him everything. I couldn't stand the pain on your face and he needs to know the truth. He can't live in a lie." Said Baba as a tear fell down his face. As many hours passed, Prachi told the rest of the family to go home. Neev dragged Ayesha away but she finally went kicking and screaming. Only Sukrati stayed behind.
She had gone out to go and get some tea for them both. Prachi still held Milind's hand. She was resting her head on his chest when she felt him stir.
Milind felt that he was fighting through the fog. He could feel someone on him. "Prachi..." he whispered.
"Milind? Milind I'm here. Please say something."
He opened his eyes and as his vision focused, he saw Prachi's worried tear stained face. "Prachi, I love you." He said wiping her tears. She flung herself on him and sobbed even harder. He held her tight and closed his eyes as everything that happened since the accident came flooding back.
"Prachi I'm so sorry." Prachi silenced him with a kiss.
Let me know what you think!đł
