Part 5:::Hanging in the Balance:::
Abhay was drifting away from Pia. She hung on to Abhay clutching him tight unwilling to let him leave her. For once she wanted Abhay to listen to her. He never did as she asked of him. He was always so stubborn and even in death he was still the same Abhay wanting her safety above everything but for Pia heaven was where with him.
Pia wept till she could weep no more praying-Please help me God! Take my life and spare Abhay's.
Abhay tried to wipe away Pia's tearstriken face-Pia let me go.
Pia yelled in anguish-Never Abhay. Jeh do something please. If U ever loved me you'd do this. You'd help Abhay. He is not a threat. He bever was a threat. Not till U used me (Closes her eyses at the sudden hurt and betrayal she'd felt from Jeh finding her voice had changed sounding monotoned) to get to Abhay. I get it. Theres a war out there between U and the Vampires. But spare my Abhay. Please i beg of U Jeh.
Jeh couldn't bear to see Pia distressed. He felt the guilt piling on top of him. He really loves Pia and theres no pretence there. Jeh would put his own life at stake for Pia but how does he turn his back on his clan? His own Mother who'd raised him. Taiught him to fight againts the vampires. Jeh's whole mission was about killing his enemy and avenging his brother's death but why didn't he feel like he'd won the battle? Jeh could never forgive himself if Pia committed suicide. It was a cardinal sin and if she turned then he would have to kill her or watch his family...(Jeh clenched his fiste then unclenched it repeatedly) Jeh would rather die than allow his precious love to turn into a monster. Abhay and Jeh had no say in what they were but Pia did. Time was running out for Abhay and under pressure Jeh followed his heart over his mind. It was his love that won over any ill deeds he'd had.
Jeh picked his cell phone dialing his mother-Mom i killed the sucker. Abhay is dead or as good as dead and right now i've just started his funeral pyre. U want to hear his scream?
Deepanita laughed-Well done my son. I knew U are the only one i could rely on to have Abhay killed. I can her him suffering just like my son suffered.
Jeh to his mother-I bit the b****d. The b***y vampire won't be around to gloat any more. Theres a problem Mom! Pia's seen Abhay and the girl in the background is her.
Deepanita was overjoyed-Good it will serve her right for falling for a vampire. Jeh; Pia is all your's now my son. No Abhay means the way for U to enter Pia's heart is clear.
Jeh bid his mother-Mom i have to clear this mess up so nobody suspects. The Raichand's will be mourning their son's death. I don't want U here until the body is fully burnt. Neel isn't around and we need someone to look after Alina.
Pia got up and slapped Jeh for being so cruel and so heartless-I thought U were my friend Jeh. I placed blind faith in U.
Jeh to Pia holding her still in his arms-I did what i thought was right Pia. I was raised this way. I didn't plan on falling for my bait now did i? Mom won't stop until Abhay is dead. She know's i've done the deed so she'll stop chasing after shadows. For her peace of mind i did this. (Jeh moves to Abhay's side) I can't believe it...
Pia frightened of what Jeh might do-If Abhay dies Jeh????????
Jeh got the picture-Loud and clear. You'll kill yourself. Pia i know U too well to know your threats aren't empty (Looks glumly at Pia) For this U are willing to end yourself. The guy is already dead. He died hundreds of years ago. He is just a l...
Pia glared-Human to me Jeh. He is my life. Death doesn't save U. Abhay saves everyone. He isn't a leech he gives people the best part of himself and swallows the poison people give him. I see love. only love. When U truly love someone U don't see the monster within them but the person for what they are. The good the bad everything.
Jeh pitied himself for the first time for not having Pia's love-Will U ever forgive me Pia?
Pia was too upset to think-Jeh in time but right now...(Watches Jeh biting his own wrist) What are U doing?
Jeh responds back-Saving Abhay! So U don't wind up like him.
Jeh allows Abhay to drink his blood to speed the recovery process and on his bite wound Jeh smothers some droplets around it-Abhay should be alive well kicking in a few minutes. I siggest U leave with him now before my Mom gets here.
Pia knelt down watching Abhay flutter his eyelids open kissing his face all over-Abhay. Abhay U made, it Abhay. I'm here. Abhay. (Relief washed over both Pia and Jeh Pia hugged Abhay) Abhay never do this to me again. I can't keep watching U ...
Abhay grew stronger gave Pia a smirk-U didn't think you'll get rid of me this easily did U?
Pia smacked Abhay-U are a pain...(Kissed his lips) But i love U either way Abhay. If U ever dare to even wipe my memories again i will make your life a misery.
Abhay got up-You're not going to let me live this down are U?
Pia shook her heard-I will milk this for what its worth Abhay.
Pia turns to Jeh-Thanks Jeh. (Hugs him) You've proven that U do love me more than your thirst for revenge. Jeh the good won over the bad. U are not evil. U are my friend. Anyone i love can not be evil Jeh.Thank U for saving Abhay.
Jeh glared at Abhay then smiled to Pia-I didn't save Abhay Pia. I chose to save U.
Pia didn't care-Either way U chose right Jeh. I will never forget this. Never.
Jeh to Abhay-U take good care of Pia Abhay. Make sure U get away from here. I will handle this end. Get some wood and start setting it ablaze. Mom is coming to see charcoal. I'll give her that.
Abhay to Jeh-Thanks bro.
Jeh felt weird Abhay calling him bro-Just keep Pia happy. It's all i ask.
Pia to Jeh-Jeh we are still friends right? You're not going to ditch...
Jeh to Pia smiling-Pia i can never ditch a girl like U. You're friendship means the world to me and if Abhay is ok by it i'd like to remain friends with U forever. I'll always love U Pia. Nothing will change this.
Abhay shook hands with Jeh-I have no problems with U being Pia's friends Jeh. I just didn't like U using her to get to me. I am always one step ahead of U bro. I know Pia wants to be your friend for life. She has a big heart Jeh. Just don't ever break her trust again.
Jeh nodded watching them go-Abhay in another life we could have been best of friends.
Abhay echoed the same thing-I know but in this life there is nothing stopping us from ever becoming friends. See U around.
From there on the trio go their own way. Pia with Abhay hiding out somewhere where nobody could get to them. The Raichands mourned Abhay's death eventually Abhay filled them in on what really happened. Jeh kept his promise and made sure his mother didn't suspect but Alina knew the truth. Abhay would be back in town for his family and to save her.
So for Jeh his loss was actually his win. He might have lost out on getting the girl but he won the biggest battle he'd ever faced. His inner demon was killed by his pure love and devotion for Pia. Friendship won over his need for revenge.
