<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Excerpt</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Still not asleep?? Is there a problem??',he asked</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">No.Not at all.',she said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">But you have called at 3:00 AM,Mila!!! Wait!! Maybe you are missing me.',he chuckled.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Don't be stupid,!!! I am not missing you!! Its just that...',she began</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">What's the matter?? Mila,you can tell me.Is everything alright??',he sounded concerned.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">I was just thinking...if we,if we could possibly...',her voice broke.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Mila,are you crying???? Please,tell me!! Is it about the wedding???Are you not happy with it??Tell me,Mila.I can stop everything right now.You don't have to worry.I will take the responsibility.No one will blame you.',he said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Mehul,calm down.Let me finish.I had called to ask you if we could possibly pre-pone the wedding.',she said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Oh!! Mila,you just scared me for a moment.',he said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">I would have loved to see your expression right now.',she said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">No,seriously.I was scared.This marriage.Everything.Its happening so soon.And moreover,I know how difficult it must be for you to move on after what happened between you and...'</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Stop it,Mehul!! We had a deal.Never again would you mention him in front of me!! Nothing would remind me of him.You had promised.Remember??',she said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">All right!!! Mila,all right!!! I won't mention him again.So,are you sure??',he asked.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">About what?? The venue?? I have told you.It has to be the Palace in Udaipur.I am not getting married anywhere else.',she said in a playful voice.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Hold on,girl!! How will I manage with a wife like you if I get bankrupt??',he feigned horror.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">You are not getting bankrupt before the earth stops revolving around the Sun,Mehul!!'she said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Okay,okay.Udaipur,it is.Now be a good girl and go to sleep.Love you!!',he said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Lov...good night,Mehul.Take care of yourself.',she said and hung up.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">She was really lucky to get a friend like Mehul who was caring and supportive as well.And moreover,she would be getting married to him in a few months.Mehul would help her to forget her traumatic past.She was sure of that.Then,why was her heart heavy??Was it because of...him??His mere thought gave her an unimaginable pain.But the most surprising part was that she did not want this pain to leave her.It reminded her of him.A part of her,actually,her entire heart and soul longed for him.She reached for the locket which she kept under her pillow.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">It was looking a bit pale.She caressed the L' that hung from the silver chain.She could still feel his touch on it.Whenever she wished to believe that he was only an illusion,that he had never existed,this little locket would remind her that he had once breathed.She could not stop the tears from coming out.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Why are you doing this to me???You are gone!! You are dead!!! I am supposed to hate you!!Why??? Why am I unable to hate you???Why??',she cried.</font>

</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">He was sitting alone in the darkness.He was accustomed to it.It helped him think better.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Not feeling sleepy?',asked a man.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">How did you enter my room??',he asked.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Through the door,in case you haven't noticed,you have kept it open.',said the man.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">I wish to be left alone Zahid.For now.',he said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">You are alone,Sam!!You are always alone.You always were alone.',said Zahid.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Not always.',he said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Thinking about her again??? Saumitra Raj Bansal,do you realise that you have become obsessed with that girl??',said Zahid shaking his head.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Obsession is too strong a word,Zahid.However,no other word can describe my feelings for her at this particular moment.',he remarked.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Feelings??You and feelings?? Come on,Sam!! Since when did you have feelings??',laughed Zahid.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">I did once.Though,I don't have much of them left in me now.',he said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">But you do feel for this girl.Admit it,you are counting the days left for you to meet her.',said Zahid.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Yes,I am.Though,I am not sure.',he said.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">Not sure about what,Sam??',asked Zahid.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="4">I am not sure about how I should kill her.',he whispered.</font>
