NAINA'S POV:

The following few days were the same. I didn't serve anymore because Sameer had strictly ordered that I would not do any work as maid in the mansion.... Sameer used to come to my room to have a check upon my health and gave me my medication on time. He used to talk to me regarding the world, his work and sometimes read me a novel but we didn't talk anything about that night and neither he asked me to answer anything regarding it after that night. I was grateful for it because I know he wanted to give me the space that I had asked for that night.

I couldn't believe that the thing I waited for years had finally happened. Sameer wanted me in the same way like I wanted him but still I had the weird feeling that his words, his confession were not enough for me to believe him. Not after what he did to me before the accident. He said me to forget everything and give him a chance that night but it's not easy to do as to say. Every corner of this mansion never lets me forget how he treated me, how he insulted me,how he slapped me in front of everyone,how I used to cry..... and like said time heals every wound but the scar still remains. His words weren't enough for me to forget everything so easily. Moreover I realised that now I have to live for myself, only for me without Sameer. I felt the need to discover myself. I wanted to achieve something else rather than only the title of maid that I had got living here.... And that's when I realised that I have to go from here"

The hardest part is going to say this decision of mine to Sameer and my friends.... But I was sure of myself that this was the best decision... I have to live for myself before trying to live in any kind of relationship.

I gathered all the strength I had in me and walked towards Sameer. He was in his office with Munna and Pandit.

"Sameer, I want to speak to you if you have time" I asked.

"Yes sure" he replied standing up from his chair and coming towards me. He gestured Mundit to leave and they excused themselves and left.

I took a deep breath and started

"Sameer, dekho maine humare last conversation ke baare mein bohot socha aur fir jaake yeh decision liya hain"

"I know Naina... Aur kya decide kiya tumne?" He asked with a hope in his eyes.

"I.....I can't be with you for the moment Sameer" I stammered.

He frowned and sat on the edge of his desk.

"Why?" He asked without looking at me.

"I don't feel ki main abhi ready hu inn sab ke liye.... Mujhe..."

"Naina if you are saying this just because the way I had behaved with you then you know that I am sorry and will always be. I really regret everything I said or did to you" he said

"No, no it's not you Sameer but me,.... Sameer I need some time, some proper space without you... I..... I need to go from here" I finally said.

He stood up instantly and came just near me

"What?What do you mean by going from here?" He was not calm anymore

"I mean... I mean I want to be somewhere else, yaha seh dur...iss mansion seh dur" I replied.

"Naina! Tum...tum mujhe chodkar jana chahti ho? U don't want me anymore?" He replied in a loud but hurt voice.

"U are taking it wrong...Sameer abhi yahi humare liye achcha hoga ki hum kuch time ke liye ek dusre seh dur rahe..... Problem tum nhi ho Sameer par iss ghar ki saari deeware mujhe kabhi bhul neh hi nhi deti unn dard bhari yaadon ko...it never lets me forget the times when u had hurted me, despised me, insulted me even if I want to forget it. Isiliye iss ghar ko kuch samay ke liye chodna hi mujhe thik laga Sameer taki main puri tarah seh unn sab yaado seh dur rehe saku.. aur sirf yahi ek wajah hi nhi hain..Main apne liye bhi ab jeena chahti hu, I want to discover myself and do something in my life, stand at my own feet and uske liye yaha seh jaana hi padega mujhe" I said.

"Nhi... That won't happen...main tumhe kahi bhi nhi jaane dunga... Main tumhare bina nhi reh sakta" he replied with anger.

"Main tumse puch nhi rahi Sameer.... Tumhe bata rhi hu aur hum pehle bhi ek dusre se kaayi saal dur rahe chuke hain" I said with confidence.

He stared at me like I had two heads. I sighed and added

"Please Sameer, try to understand...even if I stay I won't be totally happy. "

"No" he said and stormed from the office. I didn't follow him because I knew he needed to stay alone and calm himself.

I spoke with Preeti and Swati as well. They were sad but understood me and I was glad regarding that fact.

In the next three days, I packed my stuffs. I tried to speak to Sameer again but I didn't see him once after that. Neither he came to my room anymore. I decided to go despite everything. I just wanted to see him one last time.

Everyone was in the living room to say goodbye, Swati, Kamya and her small niece, Bela chachi, Pandit, Munna, Preeti and few other maids... Preeti hugged me tightly

" Naina promise me ki hum aksar phone peh baat karte rahenge...aur hafte mein ek baar video conferencing bhi karenge" she said with tears flowing.

" I promise...just take care of yourself and.... Sameer too" I replied breaking the hug.

"Don't worry and be safe" she said and I smiled at her.

"Yeh apke liye" kamya's little niece said and handed me some cute drawing she made for me.

"Aww! bohot sundar hain yeh, thank you .I will miss you too bachcha" I said and bent down to her height and kissed her cheeks.

It was indeed very painful to leave this amazing people behind, more than I imagined. I stayed here for 15 long years and they all were my family. It truely hurts to leave your family behind and go. I turned around to walk to the front door when I saw Sameer standing and looking at me. I walked towards him. His eyes were red, as if he had cried a lot and had dark circles under it. His hair was messy and face looked pale. We looked at each other for long minutes, no one dared to speak. I was a crying mess not able to control my emotions. I saw tears flowing from his eyes as well. This was the 2nd time I had seen him so broken, first was when his mother died. I couldn't move. He took some steps towards me. He was so close that I felt his breath on my face. First he wiped my tears with his thumb and then cupped my face. He joined our foreheads , still sobbing. We both closed our eyes, absorbing the moment.  "Jab itna hi dard ho raha hain tab toh chod ke kyu ja rahi ho?" He said and I opened my eyes to glance at his face and saw that his eyes were closed and tears continuously overflowing through them.  I felt short for words to answer him.We detached our foreheads and he hugged me in the next instant with all his force. I hugged him back , with my face in his neck, smelling him. He detached himself after few seconds and kissed me on my head and stormed from there without a glance. I looked at his back , holding myself from running after him. I felt a hand on my shoulder. It was Munna, who said

"Chalo ab Naina, the driver is waiting for you"

I nodded and walked away from the house, I lived in almost my entire life.

After hours in the car,I finally reached my destination. I walked slowly to the small house and knocked. After a moment the door opened, I placed a smile on my face and said

"Namaste Masi"
