"It wasn't easy all the way
It wasn't easy all the time
It wasn't easy both ins and outs
Still we found the turn
To stand at, together with each other"
Arjun and Subhanwita, two opposite personalities tied knot due to unfavorable situation. Sub...

Talking always makes a solution, especially in case of pouring your heart out. Pouring out all the suppressed pains makes new space in you for accepting many more better stuffs. We discover opportunities that are going to be opened for us, obstacles which are overthrown efficiently, and sometimes pleasant facts even also put forward their steps justifying their unrecognised presence.
It must be feeling difficult to grasp the meaning of above lines. Let me lead you towards your goal, the point where you can feel the goodness of my words.
In late afternoon both Arjun and Subhanwita sat at balcony witnessing mild sun rays increase the beauty of plants around them. Mild sun rays were always enjoyable for Subhanwita, and if that gets company of slow paced breeze then nothing can be better than that combination according to her.
"Life is also just like this game of sun rays and shadow of clouds," Nature made an initiative through Arjun.
"True words, Arjun. Light and darkness come into our lives according to the phrases alloted to those," Subhanwita joined him stating the obvious fact.
"Sometimes the stay of darkness prolongs just similar to my life. When mom left everyone dad also disconnected himself from outer world. He wasn't willing to even think of a new start," He responded her words narrating the start of his hardships.
"Dad loves mom so much, right?" She asked.
"He loved her. I feel he doesn't has the same feelings now," His face had no expression, and even words weren't sounding alive.
"Love never changes due to chaos of life. Even if it changes facing the challenges of life then only to be stronger than before," She placed an affectionate hand on his shoulder.
"I don't believe in philosophical thoughts, Subhi. Dad wasn't ready to allow me and Mishu to live with him in India. He wished us to settle in London. He might wished for a better environment for us after mom's death," He stopped to compose himself as meeting those days in memories was really tough.
"I wasn't ready to go leaving mom's memories back. I couldn't afford that. So, I denied him. I still remember our conversation on that day," His voice slowed down as he entered deeper into the memory lane.
Flashback:
"Dad, why do you want to send us away?" A seven year old boy was asking in tears.
"I can't explain that in details, but that's for both of yours better future," Aparajit was controlling his emotions hard.
"Dad, I don't want to go anywhere neither Mishu does," Holding his father's hand the little boy urged.
"Why don't you understand Arjun? I don't think I am in a state of being a good guide to both of you. I just don't want any change in my life. Just let me be like this. I want to be a wanderer with my woes," Aparajit raised his voice fearing about his emotional break down near Arjun.
"Sorry, Dad. I can't obey you. After losing mom I can't live without her memories. I will be here, but I will convince Mishu to go," It was too harsh for a seven year old boy to take that form of his father easily.
That was the day on which the line of misunderstanding had drawn in between father and son.
Flashback ended
"I convinced Mishu to go London. I forced her literally to go away. She warned me not to come back to me again, but I was helpless. I thought everything will be settled in between us gradually which never has happened," He continued with a grief stricken tone.
"I never had imagined that she could be this much adamant to forgive me," The flood of tears was unstoppable in his eyes.
Some drops of tears leaked from her eyes too which made him looking at her in awe. He didn't have anyone to reciprocate his emotions in these years. He didn't even allow anyone to do so. He didn't know how she made him to be opened up, but he was feeling lighter after doing so.
He never shared two things with anyone, first one was his plan and other one was his pain. According to him sharing those both makes people face adversity instead of advantage.
He was immersed in his thoughts. Suddenly he felt an affectionate grip around his face. Lifting his eyes he saw Subhanwita was wiping his tears cupping his cheeks. After long he got a loving touch unlike his mom's.
He didn't object. Even didn't move disturbing their position. She would haven't withdrawn her hands if some of her fingers hadn't touched his lips accidentally. She took back her hands immediately not letting him feel the shiver of her skin due his touch.
"I am sorry. For me you have to cry," He apologized after coming back to reality.
"But I am the happiest one after getting this gift from you," Her smile confused him.
"How tears can be gift for anyone?" He asked only to hear an unclear chuckle of her.
"These aren't tears. It's the sensation your tears caused to me. There's no value of any sensation being single. Those get valuable once they search a soulmate to be connected with," Her words casted a spell on him pleasantly making him smile widely.
"And the gift I got was your trust of being opened up to me. What can be a better gift than this on the eve of one month celebration of our marriage!" Her words startled him with realisation.
"It had been one month!" He exclaimed in surprise.
Nodding at him she softly leaned her head on his shoulder while he was lost in his thoughts holding the smile safely on his face which was graced by her.
