PART 19
She didn't know where she was heading to, but she had come far away from the contruction site.
As he snapped open his eyes, she was no where to be seen. She had disappeared from the place. He could still feel her presence there, her fragrance could still be found in the breeze that carried it, but she was not there. He felt restless not finding her there. His heart suddenly started pounding heavily.He swirled round to have a glimpse of her, but she was no where to be seen. It felt as if she had once again left him alone.
"Geet, where are you!" his heart cried out.
The fear of losing her again overcame his senses and he ran towards his car. At that moment it was only her that mattered to him.
----------------------------
"What's happening in my life?? This world is telling me that he does not belong to me. Is it right?? Then why does it seem so wrong?? Why??"
"Geet, it's all your fault. You shouldn't have come back to his life. You should've stayed away from him. May be then it wouldn't have been this difficult. He had every right to move on, it was you who was wrong to dwell in the past and expect the same from him."
He was driving like a maniac. He might have grown all mighty and strong, but still he was not capable of coping with the fear of losing her.
"Oh God, I've always relied on myself only because I thought that nothing was impossible, because I thought thatI was capable of doing everything. I've always struggled to prove myself. But today, I don't want to rely merely on my capabilities, I don't want to take the risk of losing my life, please help me!"
He closed his eyes for a brief moment and as he opened them, his wait was over. She was walking on the side of the road absentmindedly. As soon as he saw her, life returned back to his body. The next moment he was out of his car running towards her.
It was like he was approaching his life. He stood in front of her facing her.
She was surprised to see him in front of her, her first reaction on his sudden appearance was that she moved a step back.
He could see through her eyes when she was going through. She looked shattered.
"I know Geet that you're hurt. But it won't hurt anymore now! I'll compensate for every single pinch of pain you had to go through." his heart cried out after seeing her tear drenched eyes
She couldn't comprehend as to why he was here.
"What are his eyes saying?? Is it real or some illusion. What is the meaning of this language that his eyes are speaking??" she could see it through his eyes but didn't want to believe it.
"Geet, I want to tell you something!" as he said this, he grabbed her wrist and dragged her towards his car. And she couldn't resist. As he walked holding her hand, she just followed him. She couldn't see his face and just stared at his back.
She sat quietly beside the driving seat as he drove the car seeing straight ahead. She hesitantly turned her face towards him. He didn't seem to notice her as she stared at his straight face.
"What does he want to tell me now?? Is he going to tell me about HER??"
As soon as realization struck her she turned her face towards the window. She couldn't bear the he, who was sitting so close to her, has moved far away from her life.
"How would I face him when he tells me the truth?? How would I face the reality?? But I already know what the reality is, then why is it so painful to know it from him??"
The car stopped in some small town. He got out of the car and walked across the other side of it where she sat; and meanwhile she had wiped off the drop of tear that rolled down her eyes as she decided that it was her last day in his life, that she'll go away from him after this day.
He opened the door for her and she moved out of the car.
The anticipation of what was coming up for her had taken away her ability to think about anything. She again just walked with him as he held her hand and opened the door of some small, old house. She wasn't aware of where he was taking her to until she realized that they were standing in some room which seemed to be abondaned years ago. She looked around not being able to recognize the place.
He smiled slightly at her curiosity and then decided on something.
"Geet, don't you want to know why I've brought you here?" she looked up at him wanting him to continue. Those moments of wait were only adding to her difficulty.
"We have been good friends for quiet a long time. That's why I've decided to take some advice from you."
Her doubts were being confirmed with each passing moment.
"I had never thought that I would ever fall in love again until I met her some time ago."
The moment which she was fearing the most, had finally arrived. She stood there like a statue.
"She came in my life and proved me wrong. I tried to deny the feeling using all my strenght but everything failed, nothing could stop me from falling for her. I know she also loves me as much as I love her, but..." he paused as he looked at her face for some moments.
"But I can't get over with one thing... something which I've been telling myself since our meeting years ago. I've been told over and again that love is worthless..."
"Love is not worthless..." she spoke in a trance cutting his sentence in between. She couldn't bear the burden of those words anymore now. The words which she had to say unwillingly years ago, will echo around her haunting her life, she had never knew before. She wanted to tell him that what she said was wrong.
"Love is not worthless. The world around you tells you that love is worthless, but that's a lie. The truth is that life is worthless without love."
He sighed in contentment on hearing her words.
"So, should I go ahead and hold her hand??" he asked her looking at her not wanting to miss a single expression there.
She dipped her head down in defeat, trying to hide unshed tears as words came out of her mouth, "Yes, you shouldn't waste a singlt moment of your life when you can make it worth living with someone's presence." she was about to leave from there afer saying those words but what happened afterwards was not in farthest of her thoughts.
He stepped forward even before she had completed her words and stopped right in frong of her leaving space of a few inches between them. His eyes glistening as if he's got the most precious jewel. His hand reached her hand which was busy in knitting her dupatta in frustration and grabbed it. She had not yet understood what he was upto when he felt him sliding a ring in her middle finger. She looked at his face in confusion which was removed by his words that followed.
"Will you make my life worth living by your presence?" he smiled in assurance washing away all her doubts. And those words were not simple words for her, it was a tonic for her dim life. Her eyes were shimmering with tears as her heart was overwhelmed with happiness. The next moment she hugged him tight with her arms wrapped around his neck over his shoulders. It was the true bliss which was missing in his life as he held her in his arms.
They parted after which seemed an eternity. They both were blissed out as their eyes met each other. For another eternal moment they stood there lost in each other's eyes when something clicked in Geet's mind. Her smiling lips went staright and then again curled as she faked anger.
"But you were talking about some girl, and don't try to lie, I have read it in your diary also." she said pointing her finger on him trying to intimidate him.
"That girl??... oh yes, actually I love her a lot and I have just proposed her, but look at her... she is still accusing me for when I've done nothing wrong" they both laughed lively as he answered her question like he was actually intimidated.
But for Geet each surprise was followed by another. As she was now relieved from the tension which had capivated her for days, she realized that it was Maan's old house and they were standing in his ols bed room there.
"Maan, this house...?? she was still confused by the rush of soo many events.
"When we shifted from here, I had told my agent to take care of this place. I must say, the people he appointed must have taken a very good care of it, see everything is just as I had left it!"
"And I wanted to propose you at this very place, because I know that you don't care for money but the feelings that are associated with this place." he cupped her face with his hands as he told her with a low husky voice.
She couldn't confront the heat of desire that reflected in his eyes and lowered her gaze. The shade of pink on her cheek and her trembling lips tempted him even more. He slowly lifted her face up through her chin and looked into her eyes seeking her permission to which she closed her eyes as if submitting herself to him. He slowly inched closer and brushed his lips against hers. Next moment he took her trembling lips into his and soothed them with the sweet and pleasant invasion.
