On the radio a song started playing,
~Kahin to.. kahin to. Hogi woh Duniya jahan tu mere saaath hain Jahan main jahan tu Aur jahan bas tere mere jazbaat hai Hogi jahan subah teri Palkon ki kirano mein Lori jahan chand ki Sune teri bahon mein... Jaane na kahan woh duniya hai Jaane na woh hai bhi ya nahi Jahan meri zindagi mujhse Itni khafa nahi ~
She turned back and started walking away from Mrityunjay.
Mrityunjay said, "Tara..."
She didn't want to break her hopes, her dreams once again because this time she would not be able to gather herself and so she continued walking.
Mrityunjay came before her and blocked her path.
He said, "Wait. Why you are going?"
But Tara changed her path and continued walking.
She feared if she stayed there for one second, she would not be able to control her emotions and feelings, and uttering her emotions to him might cause a great loss to Tara. She might lose her friend forever.
Mrityunjay said, "Tara...Tara... wait ...What's the matter? Why are you going?"
He grabbed her hand and pulled her towards him and clutched her in his arms tightly. Tara made many attempts to loosen that grip but all her attempts were in vain.
Tara said, "Leave me Mrityunjay. Let me go."
Mrityunjay said, "I will not leave you until you tell me why you are going?"
Tara said, "Leave me Mrityunjay."
Mrityunjay was not in a mood to leave her. Today he wanted to know what his wife Tara wants. What she feels about him.
They were so close to each other that they could hear each other's heartbeat.
Tara was looking into his eyes ... Trying to find her question's answers ...
"Why Mrityunjay? Why don't you understand why I am going? Why?"
"Why Mrityunjay you are playing with my emotions? Why??"
Mrityunjay was looking into her eyes trying to find the reason for her behaviour.
Another track started playing on the radio after that song finished.
~Jaane tu meri kya hai Jaane main tera kya tha Saath tere har pal Saath har lamha tha Jaane kaisi kasak hai Jaane kaisi tadap hai Kyun yeh aankhen nam hai Jaane kaisa gum hai Hai dosti humko yakeen toh Dosti aur kuch bhi nahi tha Par kaise tujhko baatein Kyun chubhte hain pairon mein kaante Jaana na jaana Kaise maine na jaana Ke pyaar yehi hai Yeh jaane tu ya jaane na~
A tear rolled from Tara's eye to her cheek.
Mrityunjay was still adoring his wife's beautiful eyes for an answer.
Finally Tara's patience was over, now she couldn't control her emotions and feelings.
She said, "Why Mrityunjay??"
"Why? Why you are going?"
"Did I never mean anything to you? Was I never part of your life?"
"Did I ever demand love from you??"
"Then why you are playing with my emotions?"
"Why you are showing me dreams that can never be fulfilled?"
"Those three words might be a prank for you, but for me it means life."
Mrityunjay was silently listening to all this from Tara, constantly drowning in her eyes...
Tara continued, "When you said those three words, in that single moment I lived my whole life. For that single moment I dreamt my whole life with you."
While speaking her heart out, Tara's tears rolled down to her throat and her voice was cracking.
Mrityunjay was wordlessly admiring his wife. His eyes were also filled with tears.
Tara said, "Who gave you the right Mrityunjay to show me dreams one moment and break them in the next moment? I know Mrityunjay you love Radha and I never expected love from you. Then why did you do this to me. Why??"
Tara was crying painfully. She was crying her heart out. She was hurt by Mrityunjay's words, by his behaviour, by his tight hold.
Mrityunjay was not able to control himself after hearing her misinterpretation.
He tightened his grip more around Tara. Tara was crying in pain.
Mrityunjay said, "Tara it's not the truth. You interpreted me wrong... Tara! Radha was my past. You are my future. You are my life Tara."
After finishing that track, this track followed on radio...
~ Aasmaan tu mera, ya hai mera khuda
Dekhta hoon jahaan tu hi tu, tu hi tu...
Teri duniya se to kya
Din se bhi gaya
Ek kalma mera ... tu hi tu, tu hi tu ~
Mrityunjay held Tara's face in one hand, still keeping a tight grip on her by his other hand.
Mrityunjay continued, "After marriage it was hard for me to forget Radha, but your care and love helped me to forget her. I thought you understood this, but I was wrong. Tara I love you and only you. No one in my life can take your place."
Tara was surprised to hear this.
She said, "Then why did you laugh today after saying that?"
Mrityunjay replied, "I wanted to know your feelings. As you didn't react upon my going aboard, it made me fear that you don't love me."
Tara with full love and happiness filled in her voice screamed, "I LOVE YOU Mrityunjay."
Tears were still flowing from the eyes of both but now they were of happiness and love.
Another track followed on radio.
~Zehnaseeb, Zehanaseeb Tujhe chahoon betahasha zehnaseeb Mere kareeb, mere habeeb Tujhe chahoon betahasha zehnaseeb Tere sang beete har lamhe pe humko naaz hai Tere sang jo na beete uspe aitraaz hai Iss kadar hum dono ka milna ek raazhai Hua ameer dil gareeb Tujhe chahoon betahasha zehnaseeb Zehnaseeb, Zehnaseeb Tujhe chahoon betahasha zehnaseeb~
Tara hugged Mrityunjay. This hug was tight and passionate.
They wanted to spend their whole life by being in each other's arms. They were spending their lives in each other's arms. They were quiet but their hearts were speaking. They were speaking the unmeasurable amount of love they have for each other.
After half an hour, Mrityunjay smiled saying to Tara, "Let's have dinner that I have arranged here on the terrace."
But Tara was not ready to end that hug. She shook her head in a no.
She was living each and every moment of that hug as Mrityunjay would go away tomorrow and she would not be able to meet him for a whole one year - 365 days.
Mrityunjay said, "By the way, I forgot to inform you that you also need to pack your bags as you are also coming with me."
Hearing this, Tara was overwhelmed with joy. She was speechless. She hugged Mrityunjay again with even more love and passion.
-------The End-----
