Chapter Nine - The Final Farewell
It took all my energy to stand back up. As I slowly managed to do so, I looked at the mini urn held within my hands.
I kept my eyes on her ashes within the urn as I slowly walked towards the river.
As I reached where the shore met the river, I froze.
I stared at her ashes...ashes...the word brought tears to my eyes. My Madhu was nothing but ashes now...my heart died as I realized that. I felt myself shutting off every single emotion within me. I felt myself turning to stone on the inside.
I stared at the ashes and decided to bid her a final farewell.
"Madhu...I don't know if you can still hear me...but I wanted to say a few things. Or rather promise you a couple things...Before...that...I want to say...sorry for not being able...to stay happy...like you had asked me too...You were my happiness...with you gone...so is my happiness. But I promise you Madhu...you'll be the only one I'll ever love...and I promise you...I'll never love anyone like I loved you again. You're in a better place now...I'll come to you some day Madhu. It won't be long...I won't make you wait...I love you Madhu...I love you...Goodbye...biwi...my Madhu...my life...my everything."
And with that I closed my eyes and set her afloat within the river in front of me.
The tears that flowed out of my eyes felt infinite. They wouldn't stop.
As I completed the release of her ashes, I fell to my knees once again.
The pain I felt within my body was a pain I had never felt before. A pain, so extreme, that it caused the sensation of not being in control of my own body. The pain burned every part of me on the inside.
I screamed.
I screamed louder than I had ever done before.
Soon my screaming came to a stop as I placed my face within my palms and let my broken heart flow out through my eyes.
Minutes later, I felt a gentle, familiar hand on my shoulder.
I slowly pulled my face out of my palms and wiped away my tears. I slowly turned to look at the hand on my shoulder. I followed the hand up the arm, and to the face.
It was her.
My Madhu.
In front of me.
She shot me her dazzling smile, it resembled the smile she had the day she had joked about being pregnant.
Her perfect smile. Her genuine smile.
She put her hand out to help me up, I grabbed it and slowly rose to come face to face with the girl I had just sent off in the river.
She giggled and then blushed. She lowered her eyelids to the ground as I stared at her with a shocked expression.
"I told you I wouldn't leave you so soon RK!"
As I heard her bell-like voice, I was convinced she was real.
I pulled her in for a hug and kissed her forehead.
"Madhu! Madhu...I knew you wouldn't...I knew you wouldn't..."
I spoke into her soft hair and then moved my lips to kiss her cheeks. And finally I completely crushed her into my chest tightly. I just wanted to hold her forever...
"LET ME GO RK!"
My eyes shot open. My arms went weak and I saw the girl step out of the embrace.
Her disheveled curls covered her face.
She turned her head towards me, moving the curls out of her face.
I saw tears in her eyes as she gave me a look full of disgust and disapproval.
Madhuri.
She turned and ran away, dropping something in the process.
I wanted to call out for her but I couldn't. I had hurt her...but I didn't want that to have any effect on me.
I had just gone through so much that I wasn't in my senses...I didn't do it intentionally...
I looked towards the ground and saw a card.
I bent to pick it up...
We're sorry for your loss RK.
- The Sharma Family
P.S. I wish I could've seen your beautiful wife and gotten to know her RK...I'm here if you need anything. -Madhuri Sharma
I placed the card in my pocket as I realized what I had just done.
I looked straight ahead blankly.
I had made a mistake and I needed to fix it.
