I sat back on my position and held Nupur's hands the way I was holding them earlier but Nupur didn't held me back,may she needs time.After a moment of silence she said to me,"Dhruv has also treated badly with our daughter so she is little bit scared of you,please give her time to adjust with you,I would say until and unless she doesn't approach you don't try yourself to come close."
However her words pricked my heart but I could understand afterall I still a stranger for her I nodded my head and also promised myself that will bring my both the angles from this trauma which they had suffered from past 4 years.I obscurely said to her now holding her hand in my both palms,"I am Sorry Nupur,I was not their with you with my daughter to save you,to protect you from this animal,I felt so guilty myself'I wish I could have saved you,I am really sorry'"
Nupur drove her hand from mine and without any emotion she stared at me and then said,"Why are you sorry Mayank'you even didn't cared about me'you didn't even buged to find about my whereabouts'and above all that you also believed what other's said that I had ran away from my marriage,you also didn't believe me'"
"No Nupur'it's not like that,I had tried to search you all over I still didn't believe that you had left me'I even checked the cctv camera of the hotel,while I saw you taking your suitcase and going away but then also I didn't believed that photage I had always trust my love ,had always trusted you.."
Nupur,"Then..why didn't you find me Mayank'everyday I so look for you'Dhruv told me that everyone moved in their life..he used to give every details of everyone except yours'why didn't you find me Mayank'"
I clutched her hands and said,"I tried Nupur ,I searched you a lot but couldn't able find you.."A tear slip from my eyes but I quickly wiped it off.Nupur too had tears in her eyes she was going to wipe them of when my hands reached to her eyes before hers and done their job.Clutching her hand and in my both palms,"I always believed that one day you will return..One day you will be back and you know I am so much happy to have you back'"
She didn't smiled at me but reciprocate to my pressure on her hands through her fingers.Our eyes had already conveyed the unsaid love which we carry for each other.
I said,"Nupur.I love you.."But she didn't replied to me may be she needs time and I am willingly giving her endless time. I asked her whether she want to talk to Uncle and aunty,"Nupur..do want to talk to uncle and aunty they will very happy to know you are back.."
But replied in simple cold words,"No I don't."I was little bit confused ,"Why Nupur.."because I know Mayank what had happened that night when Dhruv kidnapped me,you believed me but ,my parent's they didn't trusted me even Papa disowned me saying that I had been selfish I had cheated them'why Mayank'when they didn't cared about me then why should I talk to them'"
I sighed Nupur was right and was wrong also.She is hurt as her parents only didn't trusted her but it was not their mistake,"Nupur your anger at your place is correct but you see when they saw the CCTV photage and the note which you had left made everyone believed that you had ran away'"
"Except you Mayank right..!! you still believed that I hadn't ran right and which note you are talking about I hadn't written any such note'"
"No Nupur you did'.it's with me in my home'it states that you realize that you can't marry me and you won't return to me forever'"
"What'!!!"Then she gave a thoughtfull look and then she closed her eyes.I carressed her hair and asked,"What happen Nupur'"
"Mayank ..Dhruv has hypnotized me to do all this'I can't believe he was so much sync'"Tears were dwelling in her eyes,I holded her hand more tightly than before and assures her that no one will snatch her from me.
"Nupur 'It's just that Dhruv has created a lot of minunderstandings between and your loving ones that's why you think that no one loves you but the fact is everyone still loves you,your parent's still cares for you'!!!"
"But..Mayank if Dhruv has created so much misunderstandings then why didn't you believed that I had left you'why'?"Her eyes were seeking for an answer,an answer of her question"why" but I do not it's just that my heart didn't allowed me to believed that she had left me,"I don't know Nupur'It's just that my heart says that you didn't leave me'"
I called Mr and Mrs. Bhushan it's been four years almost I hadn't talk to them,"Hello Uncle ,Mayank this side.."
Mr.Bhushan,"Hello..Mayank how are you..!! Everything fine .."
"Yes'!!! Everything si fine..vo actually I need to tell you something something really important.."
Mr.Bhushan:"What..!! are you getting engaged'I am happy then finally you are moving in your life..so who's that lucky girl'"
"No'Uncle nothing is like that you are thinking' will you call Aunty also'."
Mr.Bhushan:"Sure..!!!"
After few seconds he said me to continue,"Okay now tell us I had put my phone in speaker.."
Giving a glance at Nupur I said,"It's..actually'it's related to Nupur your daughter'"
Mr.Bhushan said in a very stern voice:"I don't have any daughter Mayank.."
Tears dweeled up in Nupur's eyes as she was too listening to them,I put my hand on her shoulder and asked her to be strong it's just that they are angry from her,"Uncle,Please don't say this..Nupur is back'please talk to her.."
Mrs.Bhushan:"Why should we talk to her Mayank,don't you know what did she done'she betrayed you and still you are taking her side'we don't want to have any relation with her'"
I tried to explain them the situation,"Aunty please just listen to me she didn't left us it..was.."They cut me in between,"You had always thought Mayank that she didn't betrayed you..but truth can't be change'She is just a selfish girl and we do not want to even see her face and I suggest you leave her the way she is and move on in your life.."
"Uncle Aunty you all are taking things wrong it's just that'"Andbefore I could continue and tell them the reality Nupur took the phone and disconnected the call.I could understand she was deeply hurt with her parent's reaction.She tried to control her tears and so she closed her eyes to control herself.I couldn't able to see her in pain I put my hand on her shoulder to support her and she held my hand which I had put on her shoulder tightly and few tears dropped from her eyes.She was in such a pain and couldn't able to bear her tears ,I wiped them off and hugged her lightly without hurting her much so that she could shed her pain by taking my support,I need to make her assure that no matter what I'll be always there for her.
Slowly she hugged me back with one of her hand as other one was holding our angel.And slowly without making any noise she cried her heart out wetting my shirt and I just caressed her hair and back to make her calm down.
I didn't thought that life would be so cruel to her all of a sudden ,she has been away from her family from me for past 4 years she was longing for their love and here no one tried to even listen to her,her parent's don't want to even want to know what had actually happened to their daughter.I couldn't imagine how my life is in pain,I try my best to give her comfort so that she could able to forget about them hopefully it will pained her less.
