TIES THAT BIND ❤️

EPILOGUE

So let's begin,

Karishma was still unconscious due to the effect of the medicines, while santu was sleeping peacefully hugging karishma like a baby... After covering her sisters with a duvet and kissing their foreheads in love... Haseena walked out of the room slowly closing the door behind, avoiding to make any noise to disturb their sleep... It was past 2 am in the night... But sleep was far away from her eyes... She sighed a relief... And holding her head walked towards the kitchen to make some coffee for herself. Her head was paining badly due to all the events that took place since morning... She was tired and her body needed rest... But at that moment her mind was just filled with the thoughts of karishma...

She was sitting in the living area... Playing with her fingers... With eyes wet... All the incidents were flashing in her mind like a reel... The news of the accident... Her running away from the exam.. Karishma's unconscious and injured state, her anger, karishma and santu's words and everything.. a tremor ran through her body thinking all this...

Agar aaj tumhe kuch bhi ho jaata na karu toh hum zindagi bhar apne aapko maaf nhi kar paate karu.. Tumhe kho dene ke khyaal se hi humari rooh andar tak kaanp uthti hai..  Bohot pyaar karte h hum tumse.. Jatana nhi aata.. Lekin.. Itna ki hum bayan bhi nhi kar sakte.. Humare koi dost nhi h.. Aur na hi hume banane h.. Tum aur santu hi mere liye behen bhi ho aur dost bhi.. Aaj jab tumhe humari jaroorat thi.. Hum nhi the waha.. Tumne sirf santu ko bachane ke liye wo sab kiya tha.. Lekin.. Agar tumhe kuch ho jaata toh.. Humara kya hota.. Hum toh jeete jee mar jaate na.. Abbu ko kho dene ka dard hum aaj tak nhi bhul paye h.. Wo dard aaj bhi humare zehen mai utne hi taza(fresh) hai  jitne kuch saal pehle the.. Ab tum, santu aur ammi hi humari zindagi aur humara sab kuch h.. Aur kuch bhi nhi h humare liye Iss duniya mai tum dono ke siwa.. Ha ek sapna dekha tha humne aur..Abbu bhi chahte the ki hum uss sapne ko pura kare.. Lekin humara koi bhi sapna tum dono aur ammi ke bina adhura h.. Tum dono ke bina Haseena Mallik hi adhuri hai.. Hum chahe jitna daant le tum dono ko par tum.. Par tum dono ki wo badmashi... Mujhe irritate karna.. Pareshaan karna.. Chidhana... Sab hume bohot sukoon deta h, jab hume aa lagta h ki hum aur kuch nhi kar sakte.. I want to give up.. Life mai sab kuch complicated ho gaya h.. Tab tumne hi toh hume himmat di h.. Aur aaj.. Tum..

She couldn't control herself anymore and broke down in tears... Her tears were flowing nonstop depicting how scared she was just at the thought of losing her sisters... That accident shook her to the core.. Her cries were getting louder with every passing second... But she covered her mouth to control herself from breaking down completely.. However strong a person is... But the fear of seeing our loved ones suffering, gives immense pain. After the death of her father... She always stood strong... Always trying to control her feelings and fulfil every responsibility as a sister and daughter... But sometimes it becomes very difficult to be strong always. Today she couldn't feel any stronger, she just let herself free.. letting all her feelings and fears flow through tears...

Here in the room karishma was slowly gaining her senses... She opened her eyes, and  adjusting her view to the dim light of the room... She sat slowly holding her head... Only to find santu sleeping peacefully beside her... A small smile crept on her face... She was looking here and there... But not finding haseena anywhere... She got up... And with small steps walked out of the room  half asleep in search of haseena. But the sight she saw in front of her eyes trembles her.. She lost her balance for a second.. Her half-sleep was also gone by now... She saw haseena in that broken state.. Crying... And sobbing... Her heart clenched seeing her sister like this... For her... haseena was her inspiration, mentor and idol... But seeing her like this... Made her realize the words she uttered in the hospital in anger...

"kuch nhi hua h hume... bilkul thik h hum.. Bas bahar ke logon pe jajbaat dikhane hote h jaha jajbaat se kaam lena hota h waha gussa karna aata h bas.."
