It Can't Be Love|| IshqAan|| One shots

If only I could travel back in Time

"Ishqi ki koi galti nhi thi" These words rang in his ears. They were so loud that he couldn't hear anything else, not even his sister's sobs.

Ishqi ki koi galti nhi thi! How desperately he wanted to hear these words just 6 months ago but now....when she had already left him, hearing these words was nothing but painful.

I knew he would be broken! Sonu couldn't even muster the courage to defend herself, she knew it's not what he cares about right now.

All these months, both Sonu and Kartik have noticed how devastated Ahaan was.
From accidently asking about her whereabouts to accidently calling everyone by her name, nothing went unnoticed by the two.

Standing in the corner of the room, Kartik was just trying his best to hold back his tears. His sister faced so much without him!

Had Sonu not gathered the courage to tell Raj about all this, this would have died with her as a secret. She found herself extremely stupid to think that Raj, her Raj would leave her side so easily. All he did was embrace her tightly and cry with her. He encouraged her to tell her brothers all this and here she was, opening the chambers of her heart to share her deepest and darkest secrets with them.

I can't bear this silence anymore! She desperately wanted Ahaan to shout at her, Kartik to question her IQ but they both remained silent, torturing her.

Ishqi ki koi galti nhi thi! Ahaan still couldn't beleive he was foolish enough to doubt her!
All these months he had spent numerous nights wondering what if Ishqi wasn't wrong, what if she had a reason valid enough but now when he knew she did, he felt all his emotions dieing in front of him.

She did all this for my sister! She did all this to save her from all the humiliation! And what have I gave her in return? I had her arrested! And still she didn't utter a word!
I had her arrested for a crime she never committed, I hated her for protecting my own sister, I punished her for something she never did! What kind of human am I!?

Every moment he had spent with her began to pass in front of his eyes.

This is not how he should have reacted.
Sonu wanted him to say something, even if it was a Sanskar Gyan, but he said nothing.
When she came here to tell them everything, she was afraid that Ahaan would look at her with hate and disgust but he didn't. Infact he himself felt nothing, totally numb.

Then one by one, each and every emotion you could think of overwhelmed him. Happiness, sadness, guilt, shock, surprise, everything!

"Ishqi..." Was the only word he could think of at that moment.
The silence was finally over but the word used to do this terrified Sonu even more, for she knew the upcoming silence would be even more loud, even more painful.

Ahaan suddenly felt like crying, screaming, beating himself and breaking everything in that room but his body felt too weak to do any of these.
His knees felt weak, his mouth was dry. He was sobbing even before he knew it. No one dared to say anything for a few minutes but then Kartik finally spoke-

"Bahut der ho gyi hai Bhai, Ishqi kaha hai, kaisi hai, thik bhi hai ki nhi, kisi ko nhi pata....Bahut der ho chuki hai"

His every word shattered Ahaan's heart into million pieces. Just the thought of her living a miserable life gave him chills, but he knew it was the reality.

I destroyed her life.....

Kartik embraced his sister and let her cry until there was nothing left except silence.
A silence loud enough to blow your ears.....

She has left ....I would never be able to fall on her feet and apologize.....

'If only I could travel back in time'

I know this is really short but I kind of needed to write this. How would Ahaan feel when Ishqi's truth will come out....
Keep giving suggestions!!
