"I do" can be two of the hardest words to say. Especially when you are in love with a person with whom you are not supposed to be but yet you are.
She looked up from her lashes and smiled.
Bewildered to her inner storm and surrounding, he stood there silently near the balcony where his eyes searched for many answers in the idol of lord shiva, Reminiscing the moments he had with his wife. He smiled when he replayed the moment where they were just newly married.Going through all the memories that still seem so vivid to him as if it all happened yesterday.
It's been four months since he married Kanak.The love of his life but he didn't ever got courage to express it.
It was a beautiful evening and after spending the day at her bhabho's shop. They came back to his hometown,ladnu. A soft hustle from behind brought him back to reality. He turned behind just to find kanak stand and fidgeting with her hands. He scrolled his eyes more and spots a broken vase just next to her.
Kanak gave him an apologetic look before she sat down and started picking up broken pieces with her bare hands.suddenly She got startled when out of nowhere a palm came in air and rested just above her's. She angled her vision from the hand to face and finds uma with his lashes down , focussing to pick up pieces with her. She had no idea what was going on . so she kept her head low and continued with her work till all the pieces were off the floor.
"Laiye mujhe dijiye!" he stood out his hand towards her.
This took her bu surprised and she stared at him, confused. The two stood there face to face. They didn't say anything but there were questions on their face.
He quietly took those pieces in his hand and went to throw them out. Soon he was back in their room.
"I am not as devil as you think." she looked dumbfounded and simply stared at his face.
He let out a soft chuckle and took few steps towards kanak.
"Nothing can harm you let alone touch you if i am there with you." his heavy breathe went audible in the room as he continued
" i met you. Married you. Kept you with me. But You ran! " a sharp intake of breathe made his eyes shut for few seconds before he got a control over himself again. " I found you. I requested you to come home. You became adamant to not returning with me." he chuckled in know with a small laugh. " I still couldnt make myself to hate you. "
He looked up meeting her eyes with point black target.
" ap samjh nahi rahi ya samjhna nahi chahti."
Kanak felt the floor below her heels disolving into sand. She backed off till she felt the wall support.
" is tarah se mat dekhiye...dhadkan ruk jati hai." his eyes hold the passion for her which melted kanak inner defense. Her guards were slowing moving off. She felt the thickness in the environment, the tension could be felt.
She couldn't figure out what to do or say. Tears rolled out of her eyes.
His eyes followed the tear which rolled out of her orbs and travelled from her cheeks and then disappeared.
" apse zyada dard mujhe ho raha hai. Kya ap ye takleef meri kam kr sakti hai?" a single tear slips from his eyes and yet he managed to smile.
He turned his back at her. Afraid of her rejecting him once more. He shuts his eyes with his palm twisted in a grip taking a hold of himself. Helping himself to not break down in front of her.
"yes," came the voices from behind. A cool breeze touched his face as if asking him to open his eyes. He turned to look at her again.
" yes ,i will" she wiped her tears from back of her hand before giving him a heartbreaking smile.
He wanted to pull her in hug or make at least some physical contact with her to make his senses believe what was happening . but he chose to simply stand and look at her with his eyes shredding tears. And he was okay at least she finally agreed to help him..
Knowing very well, he can be only help if she agrees to be his...
Only his...
