TALES OF THE HEART

TU DHADKAN MAI DIL🎸

Haseena's phone rang. She looked at the I'd. 'Isha' it displays.

"Isha... Kaisi ho??" She asked picking up with a smile.

Isha told her something. After listening to her, Haseena was dumbfounded and flabbergasted.

"Kyaa!!!!!!!!!..." She reacted shockingly.
"S....sach...sach keh...rahi...h..ho??" She tried to ask as her throat dried.

Looking at Haseena's condition, Karishma got tensed. She got down from her lap.
"Haseena.. ka hua?" Karishma asked worriedly.

She looked at Karishma and then at her phone. The phone slipped off from her hand and landed on her lap.

"Haseena...kuch boliye..." Karishma said.

But Haseena was numb. Not in the condition to say or do anything. Karishma, upon getting no reaction shook her a little.

"Ha..haseena kuch toh boliye... Isha...vo thik hai na...Haseena boliye na.. humko ghabrahat ho rahi hai Shona..." She said extremely worried.

Tears emerged into Haseena's eyes. She slowly took her trembling hand towards Karishma, touching her face.

"Haseena...... Haseeenaaaaa!!!!!" She shouted to make her conscious.

Haseena looked into her eyes and tears rolled down from her cheeks to Karishma's hands.
"Ro...ro kaahe rahi hain aap... Shona... Please kuch boliye na" Karishma pleaded wiping Haseena's tears.

"K...kkk..." Haseena tried to speak but her words betrayed. Karishma hugged her to calm her down and rubbed her back.

"Haseena relax... Dekhiye hamari taraf dekhiye... Boliye kaa hua hai??" She asked cupping her face making her look straight into her eyes. With trembling lips she finally spoke.

"K...KISHUU...."
escaped from her lips with much difficulty.

As soon as Karishma listened that word her eyes left wide open. She left Haseena with a jerk. Her heart started thudding against her chest.

"H...Haseena... Ye...ye naam" she tried to ask. She has heard this name after ages and it felt like eternity. Her eyes got filled with tears and brain crowded with unanswered questions.

"Aap... Karishma Singh... Karishma... Kishu... Meri Kishu..." Haseena mumbled as if confirming.

Karishma was on seventh sky. It took her a minute to realize what was happening to her.

"HASSIE...." she mumbled.
And the next moment she was in the tight embrace of her Hassie.

"Kishuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!" Haseena cried loudly and burst out sobbing.

"Haseena... Hassie... Aap... Aapko kaise... Hum... Hum aapki Kishu... Mtlb aap...aap Hassie.......... Hassieeeeeeeee!!!!!!!" Karishma was mumbling confusingly.

Haseena cupped her face and looked into her eyes, deep down...

FLASHBACK-

A cute little girl of 4, wearing jumpsuit and having two ponytails was standing outside a park with a man who was buying ice cream for her.

"Papa... Kitni der..." She asked cutely.

"Karishma.. beta 2 minutes..hmm??" Her father replied with a smile.

"Ok papa" she said.

Suddenly her eyes fell on a little white furry puppy at the other end of the road.

"Wow... Kitna cute hai" she said to herself and started crossing the road.

A high speed car was coming from the left but she wasn't paying heed towards that. The car was nearly at a metre distance from her when someone jumped on her taking her in her arms and fell down on the other end of the road.
