"Ouch!"
The pain in his toe increased with each passing second. He hopped on the spot a few times before putting his leg back on the ground and looked around the house which was plunged into darkness. He bent down a little searching for the object he just walked into and decided that it was the coffee table.
"Kya hua? Tum thik ho? Arjun?" Roshni called out for him.
"Haan haan thik hoon. Woh table se thakra gaya...tum wahi baito, main candle leke aatha hoon"
"Sambhalke..." Roshni's tiny voice told him.
Arjun smiled at his wife's concern and made his way to the kitchen. He reached a set of draws at the far end and opened the second draw to retrieve the candles and lighter.
"Accha hua light chali gayi, ab ek romantic candle light dinner karenge" He talked loudly to his wife who was sitting at the dining table. He heard her soft chuckle and smiled.
"Current chaligayi toh janaab ko romantic hone ki soojha? Current na jaathi t'" Roshni's voice suddenly seized.
"Toh kya? Unromantic keh rahi ho mujhe?" Arjun faked shock as he said it.
"Arjun tumne kuch suna?" He heard her say a little panicky.
By now he lit the candles and was on his way back to the dining table. Slowly making his way he asked, "Kya? Roshni?"
But he got no reply.
"Roshni?" He was at the table but her chair was empty. He frowned, she was right there talking to him a second back.
"Roshni?" He called out again.
"Arjun!" He heard her whisper and whipped around only to have his life sucked out of him. An agonizing chill coursed through his veins as he saw a man in the shadows holding Roshni, a hand with a knife at her neck and the other clasping around her mouth.
Her eyes were wide and screamed fear.
As a chilling silence suddenly fell around the house, all Arjun heard was his own heavy, terrified breathing.
"NO!" he gasped.
The next thing he knew he was on the ground, blood gushing out his head. He stretched his hand out for his wife who had tears flooding out of her terrified eyes.
A blood curdling laugh resounded around the room before a knife come down onto his stretched arm and cut through the newly etched name of his wife. Then, the same knife pierced her body not once, not twice but, several times.
And she fell.
Leaving behind nothing but a cold empty husk.
"Suniye! Suniye aap thik ho? Aap..aap uttiye, uttiye.."
A distant voice called out to him. Arjun's eyes flew open and he sat up startled. Gasping for air through his mouth, he looked around and at the person in front of him who woke him up. She jumped a feet back out of fear.
Arjun still panting heavily rested his head on the rock and took deep breaths. Tears rolled in his eyes and sweat popped on his face.
After a minute or maybe two, she slowly walked back to him, timidly. He wiped the sweat off his face and looked at her. She said nothing.
"Kya hain?" Arjun asked, sounding ruder than he meant it to.
"Woh'woh aap..." after a pause she asked, "Koyi bura sapna dekha?"
His dark orbs met her brown ones, each searched the others eyes trying to read what they were thinking. Arjun looked away and slowly replied,
"haan bura sapna...jo mere zindagi ka sabse bada haqeeqat bhi hain"
She spoke softly after a moment's silence, "I am sorry"
He looked at her again trying to read her, "Sorry kiss liye?"
"Aap...aapke bure sapne ke liye'"
They looked at each other for the longest moment yet before Arjun looked away and sighed.
"I should go" he said and started to get up.
"Can you stay for a little while? Mein abhi ghar nahi jaana chaah thi'" she said slowly making him once again halt in his track.
He looked at her with a frown, "Kyun?"
"I don't want to be alone...'I just...I...please?" She pleaded.
She looked stuck, confused, lost and most of all scared. He understood she had no inkling of how to deal with this sudden loneliness, the hole in her life. If she was hoping that he'd be able to help her, then she was wrong. Even after two years of his wife's demise, Arjun had no idea whatsoever of how to handle the loss. Or maybe he never tried.
But, one look at her and he wanted to stay. One look and he wanted to do anything he could for her. One look and he knew she didn't need help as he thought or sympathy, just a little company - an ear to listen and a shoulder to cry on if needed. He didn't say anything, instead started to settle back down on the sand next to the rock when he remembered something and stopped. He looked at her and narrowed his eyes,
"Aap aise kaise ek ajnabi ko...?" the words dripped with sarcasm as he said the same thing she said to him two nights back when he last saw her.
Two whole nights he spent restlessly waiting for her to come back, for he knew that she would, for he knew, that it wasn't the end of their story'yet.
And, for that exact reason he wasn't surprised to see her back here tonight.
She looked down, clearly embarrassed at what she has done, "Woh main darr gayi thi.."
Arjun gave her a slight smirk as he sat down and spoke, "Ab aapko darr nahi lag raha? Kyun aayi wapas?"
She settled down next to him, on his side of the rock. Bringing her knees up, she hugged them to her chest and looked at the dark sea in front of them.
"Akeli nahi rehna chaah thi thi..." she said, answering his second question.
It was obvious that she wasn't sure about him just yet. But, she came anyway'seems company of a total stranger in the middle of the night is much better than the lonely, void feeling at home. He knew that feeling to the 'T'. He had been to his and Roshni's house once after she passed away. That feeling of your heart crushing into a million pieces every time you see the empty house is devastating.
He understood her, as if she were an open book in front of him.
"Aap, aap mujhse math darriye...main..."
Before he could finish she looked at him and smiled. He realised that's the first time he saw her smile. Though it did not reach her eyes as it should, it still had a sweetness to it.
He looked the same way she was looking and fell into silence.
"Aap se kuch poochu?" She asked after sometime. When Arjun nodded she continued,
"Aap yeha roz aate hain?"
"Hmm...agar kaam na ho toh..." Arjun replied.
"Kyun?" She asked.
"Accha lagta hain yeha aake, sukoon sa milta hain'" he paused looking up at the stars, Roshni's words echoed in his ears, Just imagine if every star up there is a loved one watching over us'...
"Apne jo maine kho diye...unka saath mehsoos hota hain yahan pe" he said still looking at the star studded sky above him and continued,
"Pata hain? I yearn for the night fall, the darkness every single day. Because sometimes, just for a moment, I feel like I have her back..."
"And to live that one moment again and again, you come here every night..." The stranger continued his sentence in a whisper.
"For as long as I live..." Arjun finished.
And again, there was silence. It became a means of communication between them, a path, which helped them better understand each other, and tell each other all that could not possibly be told by mere words.
A warm silence, that Arjun would gladly choose to have for the rest of his life with this stranger rather than the chaotic noise of the world around him.
He could feel her eyes boring into the side of his face so he slowly turned to look at her. She gazed at him for a few seconds and then slowly spoke,
"I understand"
He knew.
She truly did.
