"Are you fine" he asked as she dug her face in the crook of his neck and was too shy to look up.It felt Like everything between them was twisted yet the love was there,intact and unaffected.
"Shehnaaz... it okay,look up please " he said,Shehnaaz knew that out of emotion, she had taken a step which she should not have taken.Now, that one step had led them to such a crossroad,from where they didn't know whether to move forward or turn backward.
"Please do not get me wrong " she said with great difficulties, catching her breaths, and looked up at him.
"Are you listening" she asked again when she realized that he looked at her for too long, as though he forgot he was looking at her, as though he did not wish to do anything else.
"Can we talk Shehnaaz.... please " he asked. She didn't know what was wrong with her, but she was scared of even being in the same room.
"Youe medicines.... woh main yeah dene aayi thi" she said looking back at him, her heart took its time quieting down.
"You have no idea how much I have thought about you. How many times I have dreamt about just being near you"he took a tight breath.
"how many times I have dreamt about being this close to you,now as we are here I can not let you go ,not without talking to you,we really need to talk"He whispered and ran his fingers through her hair and tucked few stray strands behind her ears.
"Can I say something,I am a little drunk though?" He asked
''That's okay." She said.
"I missed you, you know." He uttered.
"Sidharth... hume ek dusre ke samne bhi nahin rehna chaiye... you have your medicine please abhi mere ankhon ke samne" she said.He wanted to tell her at that time that Whether forcibly feeding him medicine just once will serve the purpose, what about rest of the days!
But he knew that her condition was sensitive and he will have to be patient with her.
"Ok" he said.
"You need to take care of yourself, no one else will do that for you, baki sab temporary hai but our parents will be there with us till the end so for them atleast you need to take care of yourself " she dictated, what she was saying was the truth he was living but suddenly he realized that he didn't agree with her sentence that "everything is temporary", there feeling for each other was certainly not.
"Good night and please so jana" she said and he shook his head.
"See you tomorrow " he said,and she knitted her eyebrows. Didn't she just now said that they shouldn't meet or spend time with eachother, she was perplexed and went back to her room.
She had gone from there, but before going she had made him realized that
the way to get her back was not going to be easy.He had the sense that it was his last chance. He was aware that he had loved her and had lost her and regaining her love still seemed attainable but winning back her trust would be the real task.
He was lying on the bed when he suddenly felt like talking to his mother, he first sent her a message and after getting her reply, he called her.
"Not sleepy again, tumne dawai le leli apni?" His mom asked.
"No,I will take them before sleeping" he replied.
"Kaisa lag raha hai wahan pe?" She further asked, though she wanted to ask him about Shehnaaz but she lacked the courage.He,on the other hand had no intentions to beat around the bush so he straightaway jumped to the topic.
"Mom... I don't know why but I am getting hopeful again... the moment I saw her I realized what I have lost,but will she ever be able to trust me... she is so innocent and naive,and in her entire life, she would have never trusted anyone as much as she had trusted me..."
