Indira-Rishi's story re-told by me.
Two long years have past and Indira is still waiting for a sight of that person,who has changed her life,who has taught her to love,to laugh,and to live life;everyday she longs to see that smile,which used to make her day.Since Rishi has gone away from her life,Indira has never been at peace;she has never stopped weeping,and yet she is living.
Its cold night in Delhi,and Indira is in her room,standing near the window,her eyes closed and tears rolling down her cheeks,holding something in her hand.This moment takes her back in time,two years back,when an event changed her life.[Rishi and Indira were in their house fighting over the topic whether they should go to a movie,or not.But as usual Indira wins and Rishi cancels the plan.Rishi comes back from work and he pretends to be angry with his 'shrimatijee',and goes to bed early.Indira comes out of the bathroom and as she dries her hair,she sees Rishi sleeping;she understands that he's acting,because never a day goes by when Rishi doesn't wish a goodnight kiss to her and goes to sleep.So,Indira goes near him and lies down silently,pretending to sleep.Rishi,unable to bare the silence,turns around and talks to himself,"Wah kaisa pyaar hain mere shrimatijee ka;ek baar poocha bhi nahin ki Rishi kiya hoyain aap saugayein?"Indira bursts into laughter and comes near Rishi,and says,"Mujhe patah tha aap ek minute kein bhi leyein mujse bina bole nahin rehsaktein hain Mr.Rishi Kumar.Toh hooa aapka gussa thanda."They both hug and go to sleep.In the next morning as Rishi gets ready for work,an unbearable headache makes Rishi go dizzy;he sits in the bed holding his head.Indira comes in and sees Rishi,she gets tensed and asks if he's feeling sick.Rishi,gets up and says its nothing just a headache.They both leave for work,Rishi giving a good morning kiss to his beloved.For almost two weeks this unbearable headache attacks Rishi very often,and everytime he ignores it and hides from Indira.And one day,after coming out of work as Rishi walks towards his bike,his head aches,making it unbearable and everything blur.Rishi looses his balance and gets hit by a vehicle and hurts his leg.But as the pain subsides Rishi manages to ride his bike and comes home,where Indira is cooking his favorite 'tooriya ka sabzi'.She hears the door opening and answers from the kitchen,saying"Rishi jaldi change kaar lijeye,aaj aapki favorite sabzi baanrahin hain."Rishi pretends to be fine and answers with a smile and goes to the bathroom.As they sit for dinner,Indira notices that Rishi is unusually silent and he seems to be in pain;and as she cleans up the table,Indira notices Rishi leaping and walking towards the bedroom.Indira gets tensed and annoyed with Rishi,as she knows something is not right and he's hiding from her.Indira goes to the room and holds Rishi's hand saying,"Rishi aapko meina ketne din kahain ke mujse kuch maat chupayein;Kiya hua Rishi,aapki tabiyat toh thikhain na?"Rishi,smiling at her says,"Shrimatijee,saach kehrahin hain aap,mein chaah kerbhi aapse kuch nahin chupa sakta.Actually,aaj na raastein mein aachanakse mera saar dardse phata jarahain tha,aur mein bike ke taraf jaraha tha,tab ek dusree bikese taakra gayain aur girgaya,aur mere parr pein thurese choot aagayein."Indira looks at him in disbelief and throws the comb in the bed and tends to his wound,and she bring the first-aid box and dresses the cut,saying"Rishi kitna ghera zakhm hain,aur aapne mujse chupaye.Khabardar jo mujse koiye bhi baat chupayein toh.Aur aap kaal doctorke paas jarahein hain,yeh saar dard kisleyein aarahin hain patta lagane ke liya.Aur mujhe koie bahez nahin chahin ye."Rishi,smiles and says,"Jo hokum mere aka"
Next morning Rishi goes to the physician for checkup,where the doctor asks him to go through some tests.In the evening,Rishi goes to collect the report,and its just a matter of few moments that his life is about to change;he is diagnosed of brain tumor.This news seems to cut like a knife,and Rishi is unable to think what should be his reaction;he is scared not of death,but to depart from Indira.For the moment he makes up his mind to hide his condition from his wife,and goes home. For the next few weeks,Rishi behaves weirdly,at least to Indira it seems so,because she knows him in-n-out;but she thinks that the reason for Rishi's strange behavior is because of her,as she has been too busy with her work and caring for her family.Both Rishi and Indira feels that they need to talk,and both decides for a candle light dinner,where Rishi gets unusually emotional and hugs Indira,almost as he is biding goodbye to her.Indira gets overwhelmed and says,"Rishi aap itna emotional hain mujhe nahin patta tha.Mein jaanti hoin ki humere shaddi hum dono ne ek saat bohut kaam samey bitayein hain.I'm sorry,aajse mera saara waqt aapka..."Before she can complete,Rishi puts his finger on her lips,and says,"sh...mujse wada kejeyein shrimatijee ki aap mera saat kabhi nahin chorengi,chahein kuchbhi hojayein."And the next time Rishi wakes up in a hospital bed,Indira standing there, tears rolling down her cheeks.And this is the last time she will see him,as she has made a deal with the devil,i.e.,Simi Diwan,24hrs back. Everything seems the same,except Indira's and Rishi's relationship,which will undergo a difficult test.24hrs earlier as Rishi collapsed in Indira's arms,she rushed him to the hospital;and there even Rishi's mother was there to visit a friend.Simi Diwan,seeing her son unconscious,rushes to him,and the doctor tells them about Rishi's condition.While Indira's world seems to shatter,Simi Diwan sees this as the perfect opportunity to get back her son;she tells Indira that,she will arrange all appointments with the renowned brain surgeons in the country to treat her son,but in one condition:Indira has to step out of Rishi's life forever.Indira,pursued by circumstance,and by her poor financial condition, is left with no other choice;besides,Rishi's life is what matters to her the most.So Indira gives her word to Simi Diwan that she will walk away from Rishi's life,and she wouldn't let him know about this.For the next few days Indira takes care of Rishi,taking leave from her work;although it breaks her heart everytime she lies to Rishi about the expenses of the surgery,which she said him that,she has managed from her boss,who helped her for a loan;not mentioning the fact that,a mother has bargained her son's life.And finally the day comes when Rishi might get back his life after the surgery,but Indira will loose him forever.Rishi is taken in the operation theater[in U.S.],and Indira stands praying in front of God [at her home]to save her beloved,and asking for forgiveness for the pain that she will be causing to Rishi,later.Fate plays a crucial role in their lives,separating Indira and Rishi from each other,in a most cruel way.While Rishi slips into coma,Indira stands there helpless,both unknown of the storm that is going to sweep away their world with it.]
Two years later two lives have been changed forever;two souls,who were meant to be inseparable,separated for love,for survival.Rishi has waken up from his long slumber,but with all his past memories erased,and Indira has been ever since waiting for his voice to call her name,his arms to hold her tight and never let go.But after all,God seems to answer to Indira's prayers;He seems to have decided to unite the two long departed souls.Life once again gives a second chance to both Indira and Rishi to complete their story,which was put on hold;once again Indira and Rishi are about to face each other.Indira,working like a machine for all these time,has forgotten to live;she's surviving only for two people in the world:one being Rishi,whom she is waiting to meet before her last breath,and the other being,Riya,her and Rishi's 2year old daughter.
