Arylie- OS/TS/SS

Can We Be Together Again? (SS-5)

Aryan:- What condition?

Imlie:- You have to complete it if you want me to come back.

Aryan was little afraid of what she will say but he was determined of doing anything to get her back.
Aryan:- Okay. What is it?

Imlie:- You have to get back to your Bhaskar Times office and also buy the shares back from Malini didi.

Aryan:- WHAT???????? You could have asked for anything else, why this? Why do you want me to do that?

Imlie:- What do you mean? How can I see my ABP, THE ARYAN SINGH RATHORE vulnerable. I want you to come back to your form. You know I was already very tensed because you made no public appearance in the last 5 years.

Aryan:- I don't have the courage to go back there Imlie, I can't!

Imlie:- Why???

Aryan:- I don't know but I don't want to go their. Working is not my habit anymore.

Imlie:- And going to fight clubs is, right? (He nodded silently.) Why are you nodding? What fun did you get going to those clubs? What fun did you get getting yourself injured?

Aryan:- Fun??? There was no fun in it Imlie. I wanted death for myself and hence went to the fight clubs so that I can call it closer to me, but death has some enmity with me....when I want it to come, it turns away from me and when I don't want it to come, it catches me in no time.

Imlie was shocked listening to these words from his mouth. She never thought that the person who taught her to stand up after falling, who taught her to face the difficulties of live was himself talking of giving up. She stumbled a bit. He held her, his face showing concern.

Aryan:- What happened Imlie? Are you alright?

Imlie:- No, I am not. I need to talk to you about a lot of things ABP, lets go somewhere else. We are in the middle of a road. (P.S. Apna zyada dimaag nahi lagana koi😂)

Aryan was confused but still obeyed her. She sat in his car and he drove to a nearby hotel. While they were going, Imlie was reminiscing all the moments of her and Aryan in his Mrs. Lambigadi. The first drive, the fights, the wedding day and all the other moments flashed in front of her eyes leaving her teary eyed. Aryan noticed it and knew the matter. He hesitantly kept his left hand on her hands. She looked at him and he took of his hand but she held it again. He was constantly caressing her hands with his thumb. After a while, they reached and took a hotel room on rent. Imlie shut the door angrily and took him by his hand and made him sit on the sofa.

He stood up.
Aryan:- Imlie, why are you so angry. You were okay in the car.

Imlie:- Do you want me to applause you or praise you for all the death talks you have done on the road. Do you want me to be happy that you wished for death because I was not with you? How do you expect me to react? I am saying this again ABP, you get blindfolded by your own pain and anger every single time. Do you ever think about Arpita Didi, about Maa. Do you ever think about me?????? (She stumbled a bit and facepalmed angrily. )

Aryan:- Imlie...

Imlie:- I am not done yet, let me complete ABP. You are selfish, too selfish. Why don't you think that multiple people are dependent on you, they need you. You....you were the one who told me that you should not let anybody ruin your life. You told me that falling down is not a mistake but not getting up after that is! Then what happened when it was your turn to apply all these things in your life. What if something had happened to you? Maa and didi would have been happy? I would have been happy? I was away from you too, I too remembered you every single moment, I too changed but I never tried to harm myself because you taught me to face things, because I was my Amma's only child. How many times!!!!!! How many times I have told you ABP to not hurt yourself. WHY DON'T YOU LISTEN TO ME???!!!!!

She had enough, enough of him hurting himself every single time. She sat on the bed with a jerk, crying. He came to her and kneeled in front of her. He held her hands and kissed them.

Aryan:- I am very very sorry Imlie. I only think of all this when I am angry. And this time it was anger and guilt altogether.

Imlie:- Will you kill yourself then??????

Aryan:- I already got killed the day you left.

Imlie:- Stop it!!!!!! Please just stop it. Okay, let me do it too then! Let me go and get myself injured too. if this is the only thing left. Infact, why do I even need to go anywhere, you only hit me. Then we will be injured together. Sounds good to you right???

Aryan:- No!!!!!! Why are you saying this? (He kept her hand on her face.) I will never hit you nor let anyone else hit you.

She removed his hands from her face.
Imlie:- Such a hypocrite are you! Tell me, are your actions and words matching?? "I will not let anyone else hit you". (She said imitating him. She then held his face.) Do you think I want you to injure yourself? Please ABP, enough of all this now. I already am in enough guilt, don't increase it!

He kept his head on her lap, holding her hands, tears flowing from his eyes.
Aryan:- Imlie....you know when we fought and I asked you to go, I could feel a piece of my heart going. I wanted to hug you tightly and stop you but I could not. I was trying my best to not think of you and go to the office or do my work but I could not. Its not like I didn't try but I just failed every time. And about the fight clubs, I didn't start going there on my own. I got into a fight with someone one day and got badly injured and didn't think of you before sleeping because of the pain. That's when I started using it as a way to forget you. I....I just....(he started sobbing heavily unable to speak further.)

Imlie too was crying by this time. She kissed his head and kept her head on his.
Aryan:- I don't know whether I am doing the right by asking you to come back or not. I...

Imlie:- Shhh!!! Calm down and get up. Don't sit on the floor like this.

Aryan:- No, let me be here for some time Imlie. I don't want to leave it.

Imlie:- But ABP, your knees will pain if you continue sitting like this.

Aryan:-Pain? You have no idea how comforting is it to keep my head on your lap Imlie. Please, let me be. I have been craving for your love due to my own mistake.

Imlie:- Me too ABP. Sometimes I used to feel like leaving everything and come to you and hug you for hours, to feel your touch, your presence.

Aryan:- Then, lets just remain in the position in which we are for some time please. After that, I will do whatever you say.

Imlie started caressing his hair and again kept her head on his. Both of them closed their eyes feeling the comfort, the love, the calmness. For the first time in 5 years, their heart was filled only with the feeling of love and nothing else.
