"Say it Madhu, pls for me" Rishab pleaded, madhu smiled at him and said those words, which always rishab wanted to hear from her." I love you, I love you and I love you so much Rishab" Rishab hugged back madhu and told " Love you too madhu, you don't know how heavenly i feel when i

hear these words from your mouth" Rishab and Madhu were in love for the lase 3 years, they met each other on their college,and from the very first meet, they had a liking towrds each other, and slowly it turned into love,and finally they both confessed it a year later, and now their parents have

accepted for their marriage, and they are getting married in a couple of months.

All the marriage arrangements were going in full swing. Madhu was waiting for Rishab to pick her up,as they both were going to have dinner together after so long, due to the marriage arrangement such as purchasing of dresses for all events and jewelry, and giving invitation to friends and

relatives, they missed each other and have finally made way for their dinner, she tried in his mobile, and the call went unanswered, she started to scold him " You moron, always making me to wait, not even one day you'll come before me" and she felt some one scratching her hand and she

bent down to see a small girl standing with beautiful flowers, madhu smiled at that girl and asked " What?" and the girl replied " These are for you" handing over the flowers the small girl ran away, madhu took the flowers and read the note on it " coming, coming, on the way, pls don't get angry

my love" Madhu smiled on reading it,and then her phone rang, she picked it up and spoke "where are you" and he replied" some important meeting madhu, will come there with in half and hour, sorry" She melted on hearing his voice and said " Ok, will wait for you" Half an hour passed by,madhu

thought to call, but convinced herself saying that he'll reach here at any moment and waited for him. This time a old man came and told " Hey beautiful , i have got something for you" first madhu was wondering who he is, but then he handed her a greeting card, and she opened it and read "Will reach there within few minutes, till that recall all our encounters" and her mind went back to their sweet memories in college,and then she was smiling to herself, thinking about their first meeting, where she was ragged and how rishab came to her rescue,and then how they both use to roam

their eyes on each other without any one's knowledge, and the way how rishab was damn-possessive with her, and finally the day when he confessed his love, and madhu hugged him and accepted , and finally when their parents accepted for their marriage, madhu was smiling all the time, when she felt a pat on her shoulder, she wished it would be Rishab, but it was some random guy standing before her, handing her a package.she got the package in her hand, and was about to ask something, before that the guy went missing. Madhu called rishab, and asked "Stop all these games, if you are not going to come why you have to make me wait here, i'll be starting from here in next 10 mins, this is the last excuse, and if you don't come here, you know what am capable of" and she cut the call without letting him speak.Madhu looked around and saw people watching her, she smiled sheepishly and left that place and stood near the other gate of the complex, where Rishab asked her to wait. And then she heard a bike sound, but she didn't turn around, and she heard the bike sound raised, but then also she didn't turn. She stood there for few minutes as still, and then there was no sound, so she turned and to her shock, there was no one around, her anger took heights and she turned to

move, when she find something smooching her, and found it to be a teddy bear, and a person wearing helmet holding it, she asked him "where was the note attached to it, you'll come again to give that to me" the stranger nodded his head and raised his hand to show the teddy again, where there

was note held, she quickly picked up the note and read "Coming to meet you with a surprise, and if you don't want to see tha, you can start back"

She scolded herself for letting him know every single like of her, as how much interested she was in getting a surprise, she stood there saying "No rishab, i will any how get to know about the surprise later from you, when you come home to convince me,and i won't wait for you anymore here in

this place, damn you, and you stupid work" and she started moving towards the road, and that is when she found a pair f eyes stalking at her, it was the same person wearing helmet, who handed the teddy to her. Se just looked back at him, but she didn't get any clues of him, so she thought

to leave, when the stranger held her hand and spoke "Where is my return gift?" Madhu was startled at first, but then she replied back "If you want to have any return gift, go and ask the person, who had sent this gift" But the stranger was in no mood to leave her, and he said "Not so soon babes, i'll

company you until, your beloved one come here" But madhu managed to escape from the stranger, and started to her home and never missed to curse rishab for all the happenings.

Madhu went to the bed while she put her mobile in silent, as she know her rishab's ways to melt her heart, and right now she doesn't want to forgive him as usual, and she went to catch her beauty sleep. On morning, she got up and the first thing she did was to get her mobiles to check the

missed calls, and as expected there was 23 missed calls, 8 messages,She opened the first message and it read, " good morning madhu, hope you are not angry with me, but before bashing on me, check your whatsup and start. She hurriedly sign in to her net connection on her mobile and she

found 10 new messages . and she opened the message and her mouth was open wide seeing all those. she hurriedly called him, but the call went unanswered. she immediately texted him, "Rishab , pick up the call plsss" and once the message was sent, she opened her remaining text message, and in each of them, rishab pleaded her to attend the call and see the message in whatsup so that she can get why he was not able to meet her up. she scolded herself and tried again to his number, bu again it went unanswered, and finally she managed to meet him, before going to office, she pulled her ears and asked him forgiveness,for not attending the calls. Rishab smiled mischeviously and siad, " So it took this much time for my love to get back to me" she smiled and asked him the question that she was longing to ask him from the morning she saw the messages.

Knowing her thought he started " so, it seems that you came to meet me, to seek answers for the messages." Madhu gently hit him on the arms and asked " first to ask sorry, and then for answers" Rishab took her to some corner and held her by waist and raised her head by his index finger

and told " Start now" and then Madhu started with her questions " Rishab, how do you got my photos? i guess you took those photos yesterday? then why didn't you turn up yesterday? After so long we planned to meet, and your work was more important to you than me? "She continued with

so much non-stop questions, Rishab was not able to hold his laugh, he closed her mouth with his hands and told " Breatheee, let me explain you the whole scenario" and madhu gently breathed out, and he continued " Yesterday I reached the planned place before you" Madhu raised her

eyebrow but rishab suggested her to not to interrupt and he continued "Madhu I know you are very outspoken, but you what i like in you very much is your expressions on the face, but i didn't get enough of your expression, when you are angry with me, so i thought to see that, and i hid myself

behind the wall, and then you reached there and after that i started to send out all the gifts i have bought for you through the people passing by, and i stayed there cliking your pics of all your expression, like how you react when you got the flower and read the note, how you get irritated when i didn't attend your call, and how you react on getting the greeting card,and how you smiled remebering all our sweet memories, and how you get pissed off with the guy" and then madhu remembered about the guy and pulled rishab by collar and said " Are you gone mad, to send a gift through such a stranger, and that too a very stranger, he seems to be rogue, you know how i managed to escape from him, and rishab continued " Actually if you had little patience, we could have sorted all this problem yesterday itself, because it was me, who came to you as a stranger, to surprise you, but you started to run away from me, but i thought, you will guess me, and will return back, but you didn't" and madhu raised out with all emotions, from anger to shock to happiness, and told " rishab, when will you stop playing, and by the way, when did you start to wear helmet, as you say, you have you are loosing hair as you wear it due to sweat" and rishab replied " Just to play with you, i had helmet, else who will use that big thing on head" and they both laughed.

And they both started to their work, and they have promised to meet catch up with each other for dinner, and both were so involved in work, so as to complete their work soon, so that they can start early for their meeting. And when all the work was completed, rishab called madhu and informed

her that he's coming to pick her up, and as promised he came to pick her up, madhu saw the helmet locked at the backside hook of the bike and asked " Is it the place to put the helmet" Rishab guested her to stop and asked to her sit on the bike, as they were getting late.that was the only thing in which rishbala have conflict with each other, Rishab was fast-rider,a nd he was so careless while driving and more than all, he use to speak on mobile while driving, which madhu hates to the core, and has advised him n number of time, but Rishab being rishab will not listen to her.

As madhu sat on the bike, rishab started off in high-speed, and then when a speed breaker came, madhu almost fell on rishab, and he moaned and told " I wish to travel in my bike with you sitting behind me, in a road full of speed-breakers, and madhu told " Badmash, concentrate on the road" and rishab questioned " How can I? when you are sitting behind me that too very closely, i simply want to enjoy this moment, i want to close my eyes and feel this feeling madhu" Madhu told rishab to concentrate on the road, on the warning that she'll get down and come by auto, so rishab

didn't speak anything but he didn't missed seeing madhu through the mirror and smiled mischievously. And when madhu questioned him, for the change in route, he grinned and replied, there are continuous speed breakers in this road, which were missing on our usual way, madhu patted him on his shoulder and she blushed and hid herself behind him,and when he turned around speaking, " Your blushes make me get into the mood so easily, and it makes me to tease you more, and that you will turn red. And you know what, when you turn red, you know how mush i wanted to cup your cheeks and kiss those spots" Madhu blushed more turning completely red.and rishab's eyes were fully on her, and then **THUD**

Madhu's blushing cheeks were the last one which rishab remebered, he just shot his open, shouting "Madhu" and he found her face completely red, but this time it was not because of blsuhing, it was due to blood, he couldn't see her, he just wanted it all to be a dream, it was like hours before he

was in bike with madhu, he tried to get up, but it was like his legs didn't co-operate with him, adn he felt himself unusually heavy, he raised his head to get some help, and that is when he realised they were actually on the road where they were riding in the bike, but he was in some vehicle, but he

didn't get any idea of where he was, that is when the doctor came near him and told " Oh, young man, you got up, then you seem to fine, you seem to faint and thats it, so we kept you in ambulance and waited for you to wake up, now you are completely fine, you can go home, i have prescribed you some medicines, pls do have that, and take some rest" rishab didn't paid attention and only thing he want to do is to get out of this place with madhu, he felt something wrong with the place, he didn;t want to know what happened to them, he just wanted to get out of the place, which scares him completely.

He raised his head to the doctor and asked " Madhu???" with a reactionless face, though he asked about her, his heart slammed very fast and he felt that he is going to hear something which actually he doesn't want to. So he closed his eyes and gathered himself and finally looked up the doctor for an reply, and the doctor replied " Oh, about the girl, who came with you, ya she's completely fine, but even she fainted due to shock, so can you give us some of your family person number, so that we can inform them to come and take you both" rishab just nodded and gave Mohan Kundra, his father number.and then the doctor asked rishab to take rest, but rishab protested that he want to be near madhu, can I?, the doctor nodded saying "Ya, but after the injection", and after injection,the doctor left the room saying he'll send some on e to take him to her.

Rishab opened his eyes after long time,and he found him lying on his bed, on his room, he wondered how he ended up there,he tried calling his mom, but no one turned, and after so much shouting, patil, their mansion servant came up to him and asked " sir, what can i do for you" and rishab asked " Where all have been" and patil replied " they all have been to madhu madam house" and rishab fumed they could have waited for me to wake up la, they left me,they can't even wait for some time" Patil hurriedly replied " Then everything will be over there and no use of going there after all things" rishab questioned him back " What all will be over" Patil turned and murmured " Am not supposed to tell anything mor sir please" and he ran away, rishab smelled something fishy, and he got up to go by himself and see what everyone is hiding from him,and that is when he find his body not co-operating with him,but he managed to get ready and he left to her house, he kept on calling madhu's number but it went unanswered, he scolded " What the hell Madhu,you also not picking up the call, this time am not going to forgive you that much easily, thinking all these he reached her house in an auto, and he found group of people standing around her house, he feared what it might have been, with his finger crossed he entered and he saw what he feared to see even in hell, his heart jumped out through his mouth seeing the scene before him, there was no one in the room, there were cleaning work done all over, and there lay a beautiful photo of his madhu with a tikka on it and then surrounded by a flower garland. His heart stopped beating for a while, he wanted all this to be a dream.He shouted "No" falling down on his knees

Then Mohan and Radha hurried to his side, taking him back to their mansion, he lay on the sofa lifeless, then mohan stood before him and cleared his throat to start, and Mohan replied " Its all fate Rishab, you have to keep going on, in your life, thats why we didn't take you there" Rishab with

teary eyes asked " Atleast i could have seen her , a last sight, am i not destined even to get atleast that" Mohan pampered him saying "You will not be able to live, if you see her at that condition" Rishab cried "Why me papa? Why me? I loved her to the core, you all know that, how can you

people expect me to keep going leaving her" Mohan replied " Time is the medicine for all wounds, it will make us to forget and forgive everyone in our life" .and he continued "the doctor called me and informed that you both met with an accident, and luckily you were thrown off from the bike asa truck hit you and madhu got hit in that.And we want you to live in peace, so we left you her, as you know, you will not be able to see her like that, and here's something for you" Saying this Mohan and radha left the room.

Rishab cried for hours and after he felt little light-hearted, he took the mobile phone and played the video which was highlighted, and when he video started, rishab froze at the place, it was her voice, his madhus' voice, and it was " Ri rishab, i know am going to leave you,don't worry, i'll always

with you in one or other form, don't feel guilty and ruin your life, i want you to live happily, have a family, and to have kid, like always you wish,And pls wear helmet, and don't drive fast, as you may know what you will lose, my time is running out, i will miss you Rishabbb" and it stopped.

Rishab then realized that because of him , he lost his madhu, if he would have worn his helmet, his madhu would have been with him"

"Madhu, get up, its already late, are you not hearing me, i know you are awake, come on madhu, get up, or i'll leave you, and start to my office" saying this rishab just opened the door and closed it, but he stayed behind the curtains to watch her, and then slowly a figure curled under the bedsheet, and slowly the bedsheet was removed,and a small figure came out of it curling her hands and legs, and shouting " Where's my brush Rishab, where are you" and she moved around the room to find him, that is when rishab came out of his place and took her in his arms and both went in rounds, and he finally let her stand on the feet and said " Madhu, its time for you to get ready, there's your brush, i'll put your dress on the bed, so you once you finish bathing and get ready we can start." Madhu pouted saying "I don't want to go to school Rishab" and they both turned towards door hearing radha's voice, she smiled seeing both near the bed with madhu's usual saying to skip the school, she nodded to rishab to leave madhu to her and get ready, she gently pat madhu, on her head and made her ready, and rishab dropped her at school and he went to his office, he went to his room, took his madhu's photo in his hands, caressing it, and said " tomorrow is a great day, you remember na, we will be

waiting for you, and he kissed the photo and kept it back. He called his secretary in hi sphone and asked to take care of the arrangements for the next day.

At night, when rishab and madhu were in bed, where rishab making madhu sleep by reading bed-tie stories, madhu asked rishab " Rishab, will ma come to see me this year atleast" Rishab kissed her on the forehead and said " Mama is always with us, surely she'll come to see you" and he made her sleep, but he missed her, and he hugged his pillow and slept off feeling he was in her lap. the next day, madhu sneaked into rishab's bedroom,and said " Papa" and he hugged her smilingly and said " Happy birthday madhu" and she replied " Papa, come lets pray to mama, else she won't come" and he remembered last time he made madhu excuse her mama by saying that we didn't invite her in the morning, else she would have come, he smiled thinking he had to bring up some other excuse. They both stood near Madhu's photo with garland surrounding it, and madhu prayed to her mama " Ma, everyone says am as beautiful, as you are, but i didn't get chance to see you, every time, when i ask about you, each one comes with an excuse, and today is my ninth birthday, but i know today also you won't turn up, you have went so far, and you will not return back, and many times i saw papa holding your photo, and crying and speaking to it, i may not feel your absence, but he does a lot. Make him feel happy, that will be my birthday gift" Rishab hugged her and cried out remembering, how he adopted his daughter on the first death anniversary of his madhu,and named the child as madhu,and asked her to call him Rishab instead of Papa, as it remembered his madhu,how he use to gift everyone on his office with a helmet every year, and how he compels everyone to wear that, as if he had done the same, his madhu would have been with him,and then he use to take his daughter for a long-ride, both wearing helmet.
