Hello friends....out of nowhere I got this idea and I started typing this out on my cell phone...I am extremely nervous as this is my first and may be the last attempt at writing....!!! So if you guys can take the risk of enduring torture for the next 10 mins, go ahead and read my bakwaas...!!!
Tears...yes, it was her tears that brought him close to her. It used to be the most unbearable sight for him to see those drops of salty water in her beautiful almond eyes ... he would have this sudden urge to wipe out her flowing tears and hold her tight in his arms as if saying to her and the world that she is not alone...he is there to protect her always from every harm that would come her way. He would want to kill the person responsible for for her pain and many a times hated himself for being the root cause of her tears.
The moment he realized that he was hopelessly and endlessly in love with her, he had sworn that he would do anything and everything to keep those tears away from her brown eyes. But anything that happened with her, brought along tears, of happiness or sadness.
When destiny decided to play a cruel game with their lives and when he knew that there was no way out now, when he was about to be taken away, all he wanted was to see her smiling face, devoid of any tears ; but what he got to see was her beautiful face with swollen eyes out of which tears were flowing endlessly.
She had been crying even when he had hugged her for the last time. The irony of her fate could not missed as she did not cry when she saw his burning jeep. She just didn't cry.
A man had died a few days back who had wanted her not to cry and now when it was happening, people around her were trying very hard to make her cry. Cry and mourn at the death of her beloved mentor...'Beloved Mentor' ...these words from the last living friend of the 3, finally gave way to her tears.
And she had been crying since then...after that nobody had been able to stop her tears...obviously the man who had possessed that power was gone....!!! The only time she did not cry was when she was deeply thinking about how to prove her brother and mentor innocent...and she cried when she did that...!!! She passed out of the academy successfully, fulfilling her promise to her mentor. As soon as she took the oath, she cried...cried for them to come back and share her success, see her become a good soldier...and one of them did come back...she had not been able to believe that he was back and so...she cried...!!! Of course he was not dead but had been in touch with his friend and the principal of the academy...they had let the cadets work on the case as it wouldn't involve the senior officers of the Army and wouldn't break the protocol as well...!!!!
It still hurt him to see her tears and now he was free to wipe her tears and hold her tight in his arms, as if, protecting her from any harm in her way...she cried in his chest...holding him tight...not wanting to ever let go of him...!!! That day he made her promise that she would never shed another tear and she had done so willingly on the condition that he would be with her forever...He had obviously obliged...!!!
She had cried tears of happiness when they got married six months later...!!! She was happy to be with him as an inseparable part of his life and soul...!!!
She had cried when he had made love to her for the first time...she had cried because she had been unable to believe her destiny...she had remembered her pain of losing him and now when he was hers completely, she was unable to believe the beautiful truth...!!!
And now, there are tears on her face as she holds their first baby..their daughter...Raina Singh Shekhawat, whose name was decided by her father when she had made her presence felt in her mother's tummy some months back...and her mother had cried on seeing her husband's love for the unborn child...!!!
" Hey Naina, you are forgetting your promise...!!! I am still here with you..!! "
" I know Rajveer, you are here with me...I am sorry...I just..."
" ...couldn't control myself...!!!" He completed the sentence for her just as he completed her very existence.
