Part-8
EHSAAS TOH...!
BY-ZOYA♥"Arey nai nai, sirf friend hai ye toh", he replied the kid, while her eyes told a new story, "sirf friend", she clenched her jaws.While he made d most innocent face. She stepped forth n her eyes welcomed a very new world, she never saw earlier, but still she felt connected, connected to a certain kind of lonliness which was disturbing the aura.
A kid came to her, n pulled her loose t-shirt with his little hand n she sat on her knees, d kid gestured d star to pass on her ear for a secret talk, she settled d hair strands behind her ear, "Singer Sanyukta", the kid asked with curiosity. "Haan" her eyes smiled, "aap bhi orphan ho?" The second question, took away d smile smiling in her eyes, n a tear entered her eye, she was unanswerable , when she made a gesture to get up. She felt d same pull on her t-shirt, "Orphans r special, they have HIM" the kid pointed to d sky, "aur main bhi hun naa" , the star smiled at d beautiful sentences & sat yet again
"M not an orphan, m a baggage" she, wanted it to come out this time, as if she was ready to face it, to face d very existence of her's. When Randhir, put his palm on her shoulder, n handed her a box of chocolates, "chalo, just pass it on to d kids", she, hiding d grief in those eyes, distributed d chocolates...d kids smiled, giggled n laughed, when d same kid, pulled her t-shirt yet again, "ye lo, khalo. Aapko na main pyar karta hun, my first love. Tv pe dekha... khao" she was flabbergasted, when she heard 'd Cutest Proposal ever' , as she heard many, but this was new, 'an 8 yr old proposed her with a chocolate, that too, which she offered him. "Oye!" Randhir warned him, with a smile.
"Kya? Pyar karta hun, pyar kiya toh darna kya" d kid shot back a meaningful dhamki, while she burst out laughing.."aapka naam kya hai?" She asked, "Aarav", d kid replied, shooting threatning looks on Randhir, as if marking his rights on his pyar. "Khao na" he neared d chocolate to her lips, n she took a bite of it sparing glances at Randhir, n chuckling at his helplessness, "mere Papa aate hai yahan, mere mama star ban gye, toh doosri mama boli main 'so....so..sotel.. " d kid was unable to pronounce d word, while she understood what it meant, n hugged d kid as tight as she could, n atlast tears streamed outta her eyes n she wept to d fullest, sobbing, shouting, screaming n just letting d jar empty ..she was holding, holding from long.He didn't stop her, instead, he let her do whatever she wants, this very moment...telling her in his heart"KEEP IT OUT, some heartless creatures, don't deserve to stay in your soul,
Your heart, needs to empty itself from d ugly regrets,
KEEP IT OUT,
Empty ur eyes of d dirt of their sites, tear them out,Squeal, Wail, Shout, Scream!
Send the world,
Ur griefs, fears n aches
It's d world, world of urs
KEEP IT OUT,
Many r here, TO ABSORB!"She pulled back a moment later, when Akira placed her little pink palm on her shoulder, "mere papa GOD hain, Randhir bhai ne bola, aapke bhi wohi hai, Unke paas jo special stars the, wo na yahan rehte hain, aap bhi reh sakte ho, special ho aap bhi.......... I love u too" She, after ages, saw, n met d eyes which were not hungry, hungry for her money, property, status. She saw a natural love, free of d ugly temptation or d candy d way world used to look at her, she felt WANTED.
D little lover of her's, wiped off d tear from her cheek, "I love u too" he eyed Akira outta jealousy, when Akira glared a murderous, "kya?", "kuch ni" Aarav shivered, n d star giggled, d very original n carefree, when Randhir sat beside her on knees n gestured Akira, Akira shooting a deadly glare at Aarav, took him away...
Star, hid her orbs in d curtaining big big lashes, when he used his index finger to move d hairvstrand, which was disturbing d view of her face,she shivered a bit n turned her eyes to him,"U r loved", his words met her ears, "Yes", a tear rolled down those grey orbs, collecting an ounce of pleasure, she got because of him.She, in a moment hid herself in d crook of his neck, "Thank u", she whispered lower than lowest, but she said.He closed his eyes, accepting a certain peace, he felt in her n the moment, changed to moments n moments to minutes, midst them...he said
I never knew, met n found d ones who r loved,
Who owns a father, Who is the Creator of UNIVERSE,
Who r proposed by an 8 yr old,
That too, with a chocolate,....................who r a baggage,
Who r spreading smiles on d face of Kids of GOD!
"Who r baggage," he focused
I must say, WILL CHOOSE BEING A BAGGAGE PROUDLY, JUST LIKE THAT IN EVERY COMING BIRTH, .......
BECAUSE I WANT TO BE LOVED!
..............n PROUDLY LOVING A BAGGAGE,
...
When she pulled back n matched eyes with him
N he sincerely matched her n whispered,"SMARTY, ME, RANDHIR SINGH SHIKHAWAT! Beg in front of U,
He joined his hands,
"CAN U ACCEPT ME AS A BAGGAGE, UPON U, FOR EVERY BREATHE N HEARTBEAT! that's LEFT, LEFT IN ME!"......pls BAGGAGE, accept it......She smiled, smiled n just smiled...after eras, her lips spread in a upward curve, enough to make d sky dance, with her teeth spread like a kid, as if personifing n giving d new meanings to innocence......yes! D GIRL SMILED, NOT D STAR! With eyes welcoming a tear of bliss,
"M LOVED!" she screamed to sky.."Yes! YES! M LOVED! M A BAGGAGE! N SINCERELY, ACCEPTING, RANDHIR SINGH SHIKHAWAT, as a baggage, baggage upon me! Because I want to b loved", she took his hand in her's n just smiled a wide to the
Creator Of Sky, Stars, Galaxies..........n her
"Proudly a Baggage", she jumped , d kids came out....n she took Aarav in her arms, n placed a peck on his cheek.."I LOVE U AARAV, will u MARRY ME?" D girl giggled,
