©My Last Love ✔️

Storm

Blood drained out of my body as I saw my phone vibrating. Dolly aunty was holding it tight and said ," Haye daiya!! Ye Nitin kaun hai?"

And the next moment mummy literally shoved aunty and snatched my phone from her hands. She had those bloodshot eyes...

"Anirudh!! Tum Shreya aur Dolly ko unke ghar tak chod kar ao!!!"

She then turned towards me and screamed,"Tum apne kamre mein jao !! Abhi!!!"

******************************

I sighed and said ," Mummy ka aise react karna lazmi tha.Uss din main Charlie se baat nhi kar pai.

Agle din jab baat ki tab pta chala ki uske ghar mein bhi khuch bawal hua tha. Maybe , mere ko leke.

Khuch nhi ho ,tab hum dono ke gharwalo ko hamari sacchai ke baare mein pta chal gya tha. "

Aaj bhi us din ko yaad karti hoon toh atma kaap uth ti hai.

Ye baate zyada time tak chip nhi sakte, ye uss din samajh agya tha.

"Toh aunty ne kya kiya tumhare sath? College jana band kara diya ya phir Charlie milna band karwa diya?",Nitya asked.

I smiled and said ," Inmein se khuch bhi nhi kiya...infact she understood and supported me. Unhe meri situation samajh mein agai thi. She knew ki maine koi galti nhi ki...."

"Wow... that's amazing man!"

(July)

College ke shuru hone ke sath hi purane dost milne lage.

Main bhi apne purane doston se milti aur khubh baatein karti.

Par ek dost na milta, mera Nitin..

Mujhe thik se toh nhi pta, par uske ghar mein khuch serious bawal hua tha uss din aur uske parents ne use mere se milne se mana kar diya.

Nitin aur mere bich duriya badti chali gai.

Mujhe dukh toh is baat ka hua ki kaise Nitin, literally mujhe bhula kar Sonal ke sath time spend karne laga .

Aur main andar se tut to chali gai.

Ek aur baat ka dukh mujhe laga rha.

Actually jis din mummy ko Nitin ke baare mein sab pta chala, tab unhone pucha tha ki ghumne ka plan kisne banaya, aur maine tab sara ilzaam apne upar le liye. Bhai se bhi maine yahi bola, but he didn't buy it anyway.

He know me too well.

******************************

Uss din main college gate se enter kar rhi thi jab maine Nitin ko dusri side se ate dekha . But I ignored him.

I was walking towards my class and I was feeling as if he is following me.

Suddenly that person hit on my head and I glared at him .

Nitin passed me his goofy smile and said ," Aur batao kaisi ho?"

"Thik hoon aur tum batao, kya haal?"

"Sab badiya",he said followed by uneasiness.

An awkward silence crept as we headed towards the classroom.

As if , we wanted to say lot of things, but couldn't say a word.

Hum paas the, par sath nhi the...

"Aur tumhare ghar par sab thik hai? I mean aunty??",he asked with a bit concerned voice.

"Arey sab thik hai, mumma is also fine"

"Sure na?"

I chuckled and said ," Haan baba..."

"Accha ,thikh hai ...okay bye",he said and moved towards his friends.

I sighed and moved towards my class. Now our batches were not same.

Even the universe don't want to keep us together.

(Same evening)

I was going through the "Origin of the Rajputs" when Anni bhai barged in to my room and said ," Tumhare Pandey ka call aya hai"

I frowned at him .

Nitin ne hero ko kyun call kiya?

Bhai handed me his phone and stood in front of me with his arms crossed in front of his chest.

"Hello?",I answered the call.

"Hello Varsha? Kaisi ho? Sab thik toh hai na?"

He is definitely concerned.

"Haan Pandey, I am fine...tum baar baar mujhse ye sawal kyun puch rhe ho?"

"Bas aise hi, tumhari chinta ho rhi thi, isliye..."

"Meri chinta karna band kar do aur apna batao...tumne bataya nhi ki tumhare ghar kya hua tha..."

"Usse tumhara koi matlab nhi...tum bas ab mujhse dur rehna..."

"Dur hi hoon, aur ye batao, tumne bhai ke number par kyun call kiya?"

"Bas aise hi...chalo bye... good night"

"Good night..."

He hung up. I looked at Anni bhai, was stood there with a frowned face.
