Ashi had just woke up from her sleep…wherein all that had happened came back in her memory…6 months had past since yuvi n ashi had had tht conversation….she loved him n she had then thought it was only right to give ur love the time n space he required….but now she thought that she maybe was wrong…yuvi had taken too much time…he was just the same…he spent a lot of time in the library, reading about various things…he sat by himself all alone for hours on end…every morning he went for a walk to the beach…listening to the river…n just ' loafing around' as he put it…
but ashi knew where her life was going…n she thought it wasn't going anywhere at all…it was stagnant…empty but at the same time restless…
she thought to herself….do u love me as much as I love u yuvi?...if u do then what taking u so long to know what do u have to do?...where do u want our relation to go??...i need the answers to my questions yuvi…I need answers…n u shall have to give them to me today….
She got ready n left for the beach for she knew she would find him there then-
'yuvi I need to ask u some questions'
' go ahead ashi…what do u want 2 know?'
'yuvi where do u think all this is going?'
'ashi, I have myself thought over it….I know my life is taking a different turn…I want different things out of my life…that others at my age don't seek of….n its going to be a different path…n i also know that I love u deeply n I wish to have u by my side for my this journey of self discovery….'
'yuvi…wht self discovery huh??...all day u spend reading, writing n playing the guitar…ur cut off from this world…u don't work anywhere nor r u studying…u live a completely different life…n how do u accept me to fit in this life of urs?'
Yuvi just nodded but didn't say nothing so ashi continued…
' u r different but im not…I want all the things out of my life that women at my age want…I seek for marriage…n children…a social life....a nice house n car…best education for my kids… n mostl importantly I want to be know in the world n I want my husband to be a known in this world as a successful person...'
' ashi, there is more to life than success n failure…marriage n kids I want too…but my life is not going to be a party…im not going to be minting money ….n I will educate my child but not necessarily in the top notch school or university in india….i want to live with love n peace…knowledge n understanding…'wise n imaginative'…that how I would like my child to be…n this I can do with my soul searching desires n my different weird ways….'
' yuvi im not sure I can be a part of this life of urs'
' ashi…I can assure u happiness wid me, in this path…but besides that nothing else for now…I know how u feel…but please understand me…I love u deeply….n want to live my life wid u…
' if u want to live wid me yuvi, u will have to chuck all this…I mean ur lifestyle if u can call it one…n live as normal people live...'
' ashi im sorry but I cant go back…there are no choices or conditions in love ashi …I always thought we were meant to be wid each other but…'
' and I always thought we understood each other very well but….' She said this becoz she wondered how dare he says she doesn't understand the meaning of love…
Silence conquered them…both of them looked at the flowing water…hitting the shore n returning back to its vast home…
' I guess yuvi then this is the end…'
' ashiii…' he let out a cry
' well look we want different things from ur lives…n it would work out…maybe our love wasn't good enough…' n she slowly turned away to go…
' no ashi…wait…'
' accept it yuvi' n she walked away…strongly widout turning back…but inside she broke….holding back her tears in those wet eyes…she ran at top speed out of the beach…n sat in her car…a big tear rolled down her cheek…
yuvi just walked on…there were no tears in his eyes…it didn't seem tht he was crying…but his heart was…u could see it in his eyes…the pain, of letting his love walk away…
I used to live alone before I knew ya
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
and love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya…
It's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah…
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluja
