True love doesn't see appearances , it just needs the perfect heart.
She is fat. He is Fit. He promised her he would come back and he did. They are now married.
There are a lot of questions within her and he is ready to clarify it one by one in thi...
"Vaishuuuu bring two cups of coffee dii !" Arun shouts from our hall.
"For appa or.....?" I ask tieing my hair in a bun.
"For Sahil dii !" He shouts making me freeze as my cheeks heat up.
Sahil. Sahil Sharma , the guy who has my heart and attention. Sahil is my elder brother Arun's bestfriend. After that day I was devastated and completely damaged but Sahil is the one who helped me come out of the darkness which surrounded me.
He , not only is my brother's bestfriend but also a psychiatrist. He was the one who gave me therapy sessions and helped me through my depression yet he wasn't able tk rescue me from my panick attacks which rise when I am in a crowded area.
Everyone would have a first love , I had mine too. But Sahil , he is the love who saved me. The Love which came to my rescue. My second love.
"What are you doing ?" Sahil's voice comes startling me making me jerk.
"Relax it ia just me Vaishu ma" he says and I turn around with a fake glare as I look at his built form as he smirks at me , making my heart race.
"Sahilll !" I whine as I go back to pouring coffee in the tumblers.
"So I wanted to tell you something....." He drags , rubbing the back of his neck. He is nervous. But why ?
"Yes mister , what is it ? Have you finally realised that Arun is your soulmate ?" I ask playfully.
"Chii not that dii !" He exclaims scrunching his nose in disgust as he smacks head making me giggle.
"Then what ? I am curious now , tell me da !" I say making his face go serious again.
"That.......VaishuIamgettingmarried" he says in one breath making me frown.
"What ?" I ask again.
"I am getting married Vaishu....." He says slowly , his eyes averting to the ground.
I freeze as my body goes numb.
"W-what ? S-sahil are you j-joking or w-w-what ?" I stutter blinking rapidly.
"No Vaishu I am serious , I am getting married" he says with a small smile.
"I-uhm-t-t-that" I stutter , speechless and not knowing what to say.
He is getting married ? Sahil is getting married ?
"C-congratulations da !" I exclaim turning my back to him and wiping the teardrop which has fallen from my eyes.
"Vaishu ? Vaishu turn this side , let me see your face" he says urging me to turn around but I just shake my head no.
"I am fine da , it's nothing just dust got into my eyes" I say quickly wiping my tears dry and turning around with a watery smile as I look up at his mesmerizing face.
Seems like I have no luck with love nor boys. My first love , he left me broken. My second love who I actually thought of having a family with is getting married to another girl.
"Vaishu I.......I know that you......like me" he says sighing making my eyes go wide.
"Was I that obvious ?" I ask embarassed.
"Not that much but.......I knew because I know how it is" he says making me look at him with confusion.
"What do you mean Sahil ?" I ask confused.
"I like you too Vaishu" he says , cupping my cheeks , his thumb caressing my chubby pimpled cheek softly as I look at him confused.
"But I can't defy my parents. They have done so much for me to just blow off their decision. They have already fixed all the dates for our engagement and marriage , I just came to know of it yesterday. That is how much they believe that I would accept anything for them. I can't betray them Vaishu. Please understand me" he says as his own eyes pool.
H-he likes me ? Sahil likes me ? That is enough for me.....to know that he atleast likes me....truly.
"Have a good life Sahil" I say.
"I might not be able to see you again. After this marriage.....our family, we are moving to another town. Got a transfer in my department" he says with sadness.
"It is ok Sahil. You have a great life ahead. A great one. I am just a badluck to everyone , trust me you don't have to bear with all those bad comments in the form of me" I say moving away from him.
"Vaishu , don't talk like that about yourself. You are beautiful , so freaking beautiful. And I like you for your kindness , the way you show love to everyone and the way you treat everyone even though they treat you bad. You are one hell of a strong woman and I am damn sure that I would never see a woman like you even if I flipped the world upside down" he says as I just keep walking towards my room with a broken heart.
That is how my second love became my unrequited love.
I have never seen Sahil again after that day. I heard he got transferred back as a Chief doctor to our town but then nothing.
Seeing him again is just...... emotional. It is bringing me back all of the moments we shared and the bond we had. He looks the same , except I could see a bunch of white hairs peeking out of the back ones in his beard yet he looks so good. Just like I remember him as.
"Vaishu ma" he gasps running towards me and cupping my cheeks looking at me as he breaths raggedly while I clutch his hand , our eyes admiring and drinking in each other's appearances fondly.
"I have missed you di ! So very much ! God marrying some other girl is the biggest mistake I have ever done in my life. I am never letting you go again Vaishu. These years without you was hell. Living hell for me" he says bringing my face to his chest and hugging me tightly while I hug him back just as tightly.
Suddenly a hand pulls us apart forcefully and the next thing I know , Sahil is lying flat on the ground.
Venkatesh ! God I totally forgot about Venkatesh !
