HIS ANGEL's BRACELET!?

AAYANSH OBEROI

Heaving a sigh, he closed his eyes. Sitting on his office chair AAYANSH OBEROI was doing his work when he received a call from his mother. She stated that she has found a prospective girl for him and would like if he could meet her. He wanted to roll on ground and throw a tantrum like the younger him would have done but because he is 28 now, he settled with saying 'As you say Maa' and throwing his empty coffee mug after disconnecting the call.

Now taking deep breaths and murdering the smiley ball in his hand, he is trying to calm himself down. After gaining a bit control, he threw the ball and took out a small box from inside his pocket. His eyes softened. He opened it very slowly and took out a Rudraksh bracelet with a letter 'S' in the middle. It was small in size as if belonging to a teenager kid. Tracing a delicate hand over the initial 'S' AAYANSH OBEROI heaved a sigh and closed his eyes and went back into time.

An 18-year-old. AAYANSH was sitting in a movie theatre. Alone in the back seats. It was a horror movie so there were quite a few people who were there in the theatre.

AAYANSH has tears leaking out of his eyes. Being the ruler of throne, he was required to be in control of his emotions, but whenever it was too much to handle, he would come in a disguise in a movie theatre and cry his sorrow out. The darkness and the chilly surrounding of the movie theatre, provides him an assurance that his life was a tragic movie and after all the hardships, drama and sorrow, there would finally be a closure. Maybe closure is something which he is waiting for. He wept when the 5-6 people in the theatre screamed at something. He was not even watching the movie, rather was utilizing all 3 hours to make his sorrows shoo out of his body. He was sure that nobody could make him smile. After screaming of some people, he saw the dim lights of the theatre turned on. He saw INTERMISSION written on the screen. Afraid, he was about to wipe his tears of when suddenly a large white still covered his face and darkness was again all around him. A small soft hand slides into his hands making him still. He heard a soft voice "BREATHE."

Girl. It was a girl who told him to breathe.

"Hey! Nobody can see you now. You can cry in peace. Promise. Pakka wala. I won't even tell anyone about it. Mama says that crying makes us feel light and gives us power to fight our battles strongly. You should cry it out without disturbance so that you can fight your battle and win it too. " she said.

AAYANSH felt all warm and fuzzy listening to her. He heard the sound of movie again which encouraged him to remove the Stoll around his face. Sliding it slowly, he saw her big eyes looking at the screen. She was a teenager.

BEAUTIFUL. Beautiful was the only word for describing her. Big brown innocent eyes staring at the screen pouty pink lips

With her hand still in his, it was the first time when he felt comfortable. Comfortable to cry with someone.

AAYANSH held her hand more tightly and tears kept leaking out of his amber coloured almond shaped eyes. Although he cried but this time he didn't felt alone. He felt as if there was someone who can make him calm just by existing.

She never made a move to look at his face and he never took his eyes off her. She was an Angel for AAYANSH. His Angel.

When the movie was almost over, AAYANSH wore his mask, sunglasses and cap. He was about to vanish like every time, but someone hold him back. It was her. She smiled warmly and took her bracelet off. It was a Rudraksh bracelet with a beautiful letter initial 'S'. She put it into his hand which was in hersand closed his hand.

"When I was small and use to be afraid or nervous or stressed, Mamma gave me this. It helps us with our emotions. You can hold it in your hands and close your eyes taking deep breaths and dhush!! Anger gone. Anxiety gone. Everything calm. I am giving you this. Next time cry all you want. It doesn't makes you feel less manly. But keep this with you to keep your emotions in control. And you can always remember me; a silly girl who gave it to you also I will pray to my Bholenaath to look after you. Now bye. Keep fighting and never give up.. and I

I BELIEVE IN YOU!! she said before sauntering towards the EXIT.

I kept seeing that bracelet in my hand. All I wanted to do was to leave it here but I couldn't.

I couldn't just throw it anywhere righ? Thinking this, I kept it in my pocket and left along with her white stol.

She never told her name and I never asked. She was an Angel who helped me when I was down with the burden of responsibilities over my head.

"I BELIEVE IN YOU" her voice echoed, and I smiled. Every time when I felt that I was losing , she was there as an audio tape in my head. Maa gave me power to fight my battles and my angel. Her belief gave me courage to face them and win them.

AAYANSH opened his eyes and found him calm in his office with the Rudraksh bracelet in his hand. He never threw it. He again caressed it and kissed it whispering, 'My Angel'. He smiled and thought her Bholenath will look after me. He kept the bracelet in his pocket. After picking his coat from behind his chair, he sauntered out of his office towards parking and decided to go to his Nanu knowing he must be the one who brought the bride into mom's thoughts. He smiled thinking about the naughty twins and his little princess sister. Although they are his cousins, he loves them dearly. They are in the list of few people who have a place in the non-existent heart of the cold and grumpy AAYANSH OBEROI.

'Sehgal Sadan'

Akhilesh was acting all grumpy along with Rudra and an overly annoyed Tatwa.

"OMG! Mamma. Saanjh got a proposal from the royal family of Jodhpur. She will be the queen" gushed Shivi.

"Bholenath ka Aabhar! Meri Beti banegi dulhan. Shivi princess to vo bachpan se thi par ab vo queen banegi. "Gushed an overly excited mother.

"Maine haa nahi kaha hai Mamta. Aur na hi meri beti ne. Ladka chahe hi kitna bada Raja ruja ho par meri beti ko mai apne se door nhi jaane doonga." exclaimed Akhilesh.

"Papa! Ghar jamai le aayenge" suggested Rudra.

"Ji. Aur meri behen kisi aur k Ghar kyo jaayegi jab uska itna badha Ghar hai. Studio hai. Mana kr dete hai us Raje ruje ko. Farzi king!!. Democracy k baad bhi title ka dhaus nhi gaya. Koi paagal hi lagta hai" exclaimed an angered Tatva.

Ladies huffed listening to this and ignored them.

The guys kept planning about a Ghar jamai

And the girls kept planning of their daughter's bidai.

On the other side in 'Eshta' SAANJH was sitting all calm and focused in sculpturing her new artpiece , unknown about the new changes gonna take place in her life. Unaware about the re-entry of a person in her life destined to her. Made for her. Bind to her. She smiled and thanked Bholenaath after getting the desirable outcome. She slowly kept in in place and washed her hands off.

"Chalo Ghar chale" saying this she happily started towards Sehgal Sadan where a new bomb is awaiting her.

'Maybe she is gonna get her new home soon'
