Chapter 29

Ira POV

Arjun sat down opposite to mine. His eyes looked at me with anticipation awaiting to find out all my secrets. I took a deep breathe to go over the truth I wanted to tell him. The truth which depicted the darkness in me.

Me: I am a divorcee Arjun

Arjun: What ??

His face looked like he just had taken his share of bitter pill 

Me: I am a divorcee, do you want me to repeat it again ?

Arjun reached out and gulped the glass of water in front of him. He poured himself a glass of water again from the jug and looked at me, his eyes held a lot of questions.

Me: You are a good guy, Arjun. I believe you when you say that you love me but let me be honest, I dont think I am a women who is made for relationships. I am a broken, scattered, bruised soul who can never trust on being happy for long term. Everything I desire, everything I wished had been broken to pieces in front of me. I believe everything is temporary for me and if like a fool I dream about being happy then I have been always dissapointed. I am a corpse, I am cold, without any sort of expectations for today or tommorow. I am just breathing, I have stopped living a long time ago.

Arjun got up from his place with a start and slowly walked out of the door. I did not stop him, rather I let him go. I knew how I have been living with myself for so long and it would be unfair for me to spoil his life by being a dead weight on him.

I left the drawing room and sat in front of the dressing table slowly removing the pins from my saree. A few droplets of tears made its way out of my eyes when I recollected Arjun's proposal and his hopeful eyes.  I changed from my saree to my regular clothes and started cleaning my room. Meera came and stood by my bedroom door watching me

Meera: The truth is out of the bag haan ?

Me: Yes?

Meera: Did you ever have feelings for him ?

Me: NO

Meera: Ira, you have rejected him, you have made your stance clear right ?

Me: Yes

Meera: Then why do you look sad ?

Me: I am not sad 

She walked in front of me and held me by my shoulders making me look at her in her eyes. She slowly wiped the traitor tears. She hugged me and cried in her arms like a baby.

Me: I feel so bad Meera, that I hurt a person who was kind to me. He was a friend and I lost him today. I saw him walk out without any acknowledgement. He looked like he has seen a ghost. How will I ever face him again Meera ?

She did not say anything. She just held me in her arms letting me vent out until I was too tired. I excused myself and decided to take a nap to let go of the ache in my forehead by all the crying.

Arjun POV

I reached my home and for the first time in my life I felt a strange pain in my heart. I recollected her words and those words continue to stab me in the heart

I am a Divorcee

I am a corpse, Arjun

I can never be happy 

Those words continue to taunt me and I recollected all the moments I have spent with her. Was I wrong in judging her ? 

Did she fake the whole time ?

Or was her talk in the morning a lie to avoid my confession ? 

No, she is mostly brave and confrontational, her cold pain filled eyes tells me that maybe  she was faking it the whole time. I called her bluff a while back but I never could in the wildest dreams predict that she held so much of darkness which could make me blind too.

Hello All,

Here is a short chapter of the truth revelation

I did not want to say a lot in this chapter because there are a lot of other revelations pending. Right now the characters are going through their lowest time and hence the silence
