I was looking at him little shocked.. He is not married, Vihan is not his son.. then.. then..Why he rushed out getting Payal's call that day.. Why Payal named her son Vihan, I wanted to name our son Vihan..Oh God!! What's this confusion?? Well Arnav or anyone never said that to me that he is married but he kept Vihan's picture in his desk..He left me alone as Payal called him for help!! It was obvious they are his family.. I was gulping and looking down..Arnav held my hand and said,'I didn't get married..I didn't..' He said the last sentence very firmly..
I was just standing there expressionless as I totally forgot how to react..He took a deep breath and said little frustratingly,'What makes you think Payal is my wife and Vihan is my son..Payal treats me like her own brother, dammit..'
I said little hesitatingly, 'You left me getting her call and everyone was calling her Mrs. Raizada..'
'That day Vihan got hurt.. Akash is in London, that's why I had to go..Khushi I am very close to them after Nani's demises I have only them and Payal is Mrs. Akash Singh Raizada, so everyone was mentioning her as Mrs. Raizada..' He said calmly..
I was confused what to reply, Arnav is single, he didn't get married and definitely didn't have a son.. My mind got stuck there, it was not understanding is it a good news or not??
I was looking at him without blinking, my chest was hurting and tears were forming in my eyes..He came near me and cupped my face,'Don't cry,please..listen to me..'
I was trying hard to control my emotions but my stupid tears were coming out and you know what at that point I didn't know why was I crying.. Arnav came more closer taking little steps and hugged me very gently, he hided his face in my hairs and said putting his arms around me, 'Give me a chance, just one more chance.. I promise jaan, I will never break your heart again..'
He was very close to me, so close that I was feeling the movement of his lips on my neck when he was talking.. I was standing in his embrace like a statue, nor I hugged him back neither I broke the hug..My knees were feeling weak because of his proximity, after six years I was in his arms.. I was where I always wanted to be,the man I thought I will never see again was hugging me and I didn't have it in me to push him away..
Slowly I moved one of my hand and clutched his coat in a tight fist.. Closing my eyes I let all the tears flow down, he tightened his hold on me and said,'I am sorry baby, I am very very sorry.. I promise I will never leave you alone ever..'
Hearing this I couldn't hold myself,I hugged him tightly and cried making loud noises..He caressed my hair and said,'Its ok, It's ok..calm down..'
We were in each other's arms for more than ten minutes, I was trying to find solace in the arms of my heart breaker..What a beautiful tragedy!! I don't know why I was behaving like that but his words were making me feel weak..Creating lots of emotions on me, giving me anxiety, sadness, anger, confusion, and what not!!
Breaking the hug he joined our forehead together..'Let's get back together, let's make up..please'
I looked at him with a pout and he caressed my face with his thumb..'Everything will be alright, everything will be like before..ok??'
Getting no answer from me,he hugged me again and I stood there totally numb feeling suffocated.. He wants me back, my Arnav wants me back.. How badly once I wanted him, how many times I dreamed that he will come back to my life and today he is saying that to me in real that he wants me back..
Well, this doesn't change the fact how he made me suffer with his absence, it doesn't change the fact that he broke his promise by leaving me but it's also a fact that I loved him very very deeply, my love for him was so strong that once I was ready to do anything to keep him in my life, I was ready to change my self upside down only if it can ensure Arnav's presence in my life..
