Arylie- OS/TS/SS

Can We Be Together Again? (SS-4)

Imlie freezed as she looked up. The face she was yearning to see from the last 5 years finally came in front of her. It was Aryan in the car. He got out of the car, his eyes fixed at her. Imlie too stood up.

"Imlie!", "ABP!"- Both said simultaneously.

"How are you?"
"Where were you going?"
"I got your letter, I was coming to you."
"I missed you!"
"I am sorry!"
They said simultaneously.

Imlie stepped forward and held his arms. She looked at him for a while and then hovered her hands over his shoulders, caressed his face while he closed his eyes at her touch. She then kept her hand on his chest feeling his heart beats and clearly his heart was beating faster. "Calm down ABP", she said softly. She again kept her hands on his arms and slided down her arms reaching his hands. She held one of his hand with both of her hands, caressing it. She again looked up to him and he was already looking at her teary eyed. She smiled a bit and lifted his hand and then kissed it gently. Aryan lost his control and hugged her tightly, his sobs loud enough for her to hear. She too hugged him, rubbing his back calming him down while she too cried. After minutes of hugging each other silently, Aryan finally spoke up while remaining in the hugging position.

Aryan:- Why did you leave me alone? You know I say unwanted things when angry, then why didn't you fight back?

Imlie:- How did you expect me to stay when you said you will be reminded of the pain everytime you see me? You too didn't stop me! I was hoping for you to stop me.

Aryan:- And how did you expect me to stop you after knowing you killed my.....cheeku.

Imlie stepped back immediately, her face fell.
Imlie:- Please Aryan!!! Enough of this my cheeku, my cheeku chant. YOU ONLY DID NOT LOOSE YOUR CHILD, I TOO LOST MY CHILD. HE WAS OUR CHEEKU. AND LET ME TELL YOU ONE THING, I DID NOT FELL DUE TO RUNNING UPSTAIRS. A BALL WAS THROWN UNDER MY FEET BY SOMEONE!

Aryan:- Ball? Who threw it? And why didn't you tell me before??

Imlie:- Were you in any state to listen. You were just busy accusing me of things. I wonder why was I even coming to you after knowing you were gonna blame me again. Just leave it Aryan! You go back and I will go back too!

She started walking away angrily. A couple of seconds later, Aryan hugged her from back. She hit his hands with her fists and tried her level best to let go of his hold but could not. Aryan kept taking those hits and after a while, she fell on the ground on her knees crying. He too sat down, still hugging her from behind.

Aryan:- Don't cry please Imlie! I am so sorry! Please please don't cry.

Imlie:- What do I do then??? I am tired of this accusations filled life. People come to my life, win my trust, then something happens, they assume things and then just blame me. I don't know what sins I have done to deserve this. I am tired!!!!!! (Her crying intensified.) How much I wish to have died that day instead of cheeku!!!!

Aryan:- Shhh!!!!! (He turned her around.) Don't say that. I am sorry. I am really very sorry. Please don't cry.

Imlie:- Aren't you tired of doing things and then just saying sorry. You know what your problem is ABP? You are always so overpowered by your own grief and sorrow that you become blind to see someone's pain. (He was silent.) I am not saying its bad to get sad about things but then you need to understand and see other's perspective too ABP. If that day you had listened to me once, you would not have told me to leave. And just to remind you ABP, I have not forgotten your "You saved Gudiya because she is Aditya sir's daughter" comment. I hope you remember you said that. Please ABP, I am done with proving my innocence to people every single time. I am sorry if I my words are hurting you but this is the truth. The truth is that my pole star doubted me, left me for something I didn't do deliberately.

His hold on her loosened as he felt guilty for his deeds. He wanted to kill himself for all that he did. He left her and stood up.
Aryan:- Are there any chances of forgiveness Imlie? Punish me in whatever way you want, I am ready to do anything.(His voice was shaking.) I know I have been doing very wrong to you but...(she stood up.)

Imlie:- ABP!! Its not about punishment or forgiveness but it will happen again.

Aryan:- No, it will not!!!! I promise.

Imlie:- ABP, you promised the same to me when Jyoti ji was exposed after you denied to believe me that cheeku is your son. After that promise, this happened again right? And this time....the punishment was 5 years long.

Aryan:- Imlie...can I get a last chance. I know I ousted you but honestly, I suffered too. I am not THE ARYAN SINGH RATHORE anymore because I have not gone to the office from the last 5 years....and Bhaskar times was in huge loss and I had to....

Imlie:- You had to sell 50 percent of the shares to Malini didi, right?

Aryan:- Yes!

Imlie:-But whydid you stop going to office? You told me work is your first priority, then what happened??

Aryan:- Yes, I said so. But priorities change with time. Work was my first preference but then you come and my priorities changed Imlie. (Imlie was numb.)

Imlie:- But then why do you doubt your priority ABP?

Aryan:-Because I am a fool, a useless nalayak bhainsa and an ajeeb bikat prani. (She giggled at his statement.) I am seeing you giggling after 5 years Imlie. Please come back, I will do whatever you want.

Imlie:- I have a condition!!!
