EPILOGUE


"You didn't have any rights to leave me! Then why did you? " Shivaay pushed in some raw pasta into boiling water.


"I don't like you" his baby frown stuck on forehead.


It's been six months since Annika left him. For an hour he went to change and when he came back Shivaay was received only with an empty  bed. Nurse nonchalantly said their patient left. To his surprise even hospital bill was settled. It only meant along with Annika , Avin also disappeared.



Same evening he rushed to her house getting their address from her former hospital. But her house was locked closing every way he could find Annika.



Shivaay went into same loneliness he felt during his childhood. Though he had Mallika and Sidharth trying to cheer him up. Still he couldn't get away from Annika's memories. Those five days with her was only time when he felt cheerful and peaceful at the same time. Her childishness with maturity always makes him feel comfortable. She had a charm which no one could have.



"What woman? What are you looking at?" He stirred pasta stealing glances at Annika's portrait. It was after a week of her disappearance. Shivaay terribly missed Annika. Her voice , her chocolaty brown eyes and beautiful smile. He decided to use his artistic skills for one last time and drew a portrait of hers.




This was only a relief for Shivaay. He would talk to it for hours, share his day to day happening, joke and smile foolishly looking at it. Now this has become his routine. Shivaay's day wouldn't start until he sees Annika's portrait .



The alarm rang notifying Shivaay had an event to attend . He sighed heavily leaving the ladle and looked at Annika. "I'll get back to you"



"Oops! It's Mallika and Sidharth Sangeeth." Shivaay self spoke but for him he was talking to Annika.



"We'll go?" Shivaay chuckles painfully to himself by just watching her portrait.



It was almost time for Mallika and Sidharth's sangeet. Shivaay was dressed in his formal black shirt folded sleeves and a blue jean combined with a pair of white snickers. He didn't wish to go , at the same time didn't want to disappoint his best friends.



Shivaay drove in a snail speed in Annika's thoughts. What would she be doing? Where was she? Was she taking care of herself ? Everything revolved around Annika. His day starts with Annika and ends with Annika. Not a day passed when he didn't search for her. The most painful thought was not even knowing why she left him.



His car came to halt near an isolated corner.From past six months this was a place where Shivaay visited every evening. Shivaay came out of his car and smelled scent prevailing in air. This was the same place where he met Annika for first time. First time he kissed her accidentally , felt her accidentally and was mesmerised the first time.



Shivaay smiled softly full of pain. His heart was broken into pieces each time he visits this place. He wanted Annika badly, it was enough.



"Annika" he whispers as tears lined his eyes. "Enough now, it's suffocating. Come back yaar, please. I can't stand our separation. Just come back, I won't even ask a word. Please"  he sat down leaning to a tree's bark with closed eyes.
