SIDDHANT:
"Bhabhi!! Mujhse nahi hoga ye sab. I cannot do this. Main marr jaungi Bhabhi." I heard her say on the phone and i stopped breathing for a second.
I don't know when sleep took over me while i was reminiscing the old memories that my sandook held. I woke up with a jerk when i got her call.
"ANUSHKA" was all i could mumble on the phone. She had dialed wrong number again. She was crying. And she said she wanted to die. I wasn't in my senses anymore. I felt something i cannot explain. My heart was throbbing at an unimaginable speed. Panic was consuming me slowly. I felt dizzy all of a sudden
"Anushka tum theek ho? Kahan ho?" i somehow managed to say, only to realise that she had cut the call.
I called her again. No avail. Second time. Third time. 10th time. And finally she switched off her phone. I didn't know what to do. Anushka was not fine and i couldn't do anything. I couldn't reach her. What if something happened to her? No! I won't let anything happen to her. I kept all the negative thoughts aside and searched for my bike keys.
I had to find her. And i knew where she would be.
...
I reached the spot i expected her to be. And I was right, I saw her car there. Our Place. The Bridge. She had told me once how this place her the peace she needed. I smiled. Anushka hadn't changed a bit.
Her car was there but she was no where in the vicinity. I panicked again and called out her name frantically. I looked for her and then i froze.
She was on the floor besides her car. Unconsious . I ran towards her and took her in my arms. I slowly tapped her face to wake her up. She wasn't reacting. My fear was getting doubled up every second. I managed to find a water bottle in her car and threw some water on her face. I don't know when tears made way from my eyes.
And finally she regained her conscious. I took a sigh of relief.
"Anushka" i said as soon as she opened her eyes and engulfed her in a hug.
"Tum theek ho Anushka? Kitna darr gaya tha main" I said cupping her face. She does not reply and i hug her again.
"Tum yahaan kaise aaye?" she asked me faintly.
"Tell me what happened? Tum yahaan aise? Kya hua Anushka?" I asked her worried, ignoring her question. She looked weak. Her eyes were red and swollen. Her silence was killin me every moment.
"Kuch nahi hua Siddhant" she said clearly telling a lie. And before i knew her eyes pooled up with tears. I gently wiped away her tears.
"Anushka please bolo. Kisi ne kuch kaha tumhe?" I asked her. Trust me i would have cried if she didnt answer to me at that moment.
We both were sitting on the road. She stood up and freed herself from my hold and turned away her face from me.
"Tum nahi samjhoge Siddhant..." she said as she cried. I didn't know what to feel. She was right in a way. I never understood her.
I went upto her and turned her towards me.
"You are scaring me. Batao mujhe" I said firmly this time and wrapped my hands around her waist and pulled her closer.
And then she finally spoke up
"Vedant wanted to get close to me Siddhant, he tried to kiss me" . And she hugged me as tight as she could. I was taken aback for a moment but i hugged her back. I felt a pang in my heart. Now i knew why she said that i wont understand. I felt my eyes pooling. 8 years back at the same place she told me that a guy tried to kiss her and i did not believe it. Instead i blamed her. Tears that i was holding back flowed from my eyes. I felt helpless. I felt pathetic for not trusting her that time. And i felt pathetic because she was hesitant in telling me this time. Because she feared that i might not believe her again.
"Yeh mujhse nahi hoga Siddhant, maine bohot koshish ki par " She said crying. I was feeling miserable from my own thoughts and my grip loosened.
"I am sorry" she said as she wiped her tears and moved away.
I looked at her with a blank face. I was too ashamed of myself for not believing her.
"Sab meri wajah se hua hai. Sab maine kia hai. Meri galti hai. I am sorry Anushka" I managed to say and my eyes teared up.
She moved towards me and hugged me. I hugged her back instantly.
"I love you" i finally managed to say.
I felt her smile in the hug. She did not say anything, neither i said anything further. But in that moment we knew that how much we both had waited for this moment
