Mile jabse tum

chapter 45. Lovely moments

Aaniya pov.

His words echoed in my head,

He pulled out of the hug, his eyes were red, I wiped his tears out with my thumb.

I made him sit on the bed, and handed him the glass of water. 

He drank the water and there was complete silence.

While my anxiety  incresed, looking at him, all exhaust and tired.

"What happened?" I asked sitting beside him, 

He looked at me and then at the wall.

He took a deep breath before saying, 

"It's about when i was seven years ago" he said and then looked at me while his eyes were red and swollen.

Seeing him talking about his past, I gave my all attention towards him.

I know it's not easy, but I am so proud of him if he is willing to talk about it.

"I was playing with my grandfather in a park, he seemed happy and joyful, we were talking," He took a pause as he breathed out. 

"when suddenly the bunch of crooks entered the place who kidnapped me and my grandfather" he stopped before he gulped.

"I was so scared and helpless, but it became worse When they left us at some abandoned place" his voice cracked as my stomach made a flip.

Its hard to see him like this,

"I was trembling with Fear while my grandfather encouraged me and also said some things, that I realize now, I came to know what he meant, he said so many things about a good life, but he never had one" he took a deep breath before some tears left his eyes.

"Some moments later daniel came at that very place and shot my grandfather making him dead in merry seconds in front of my eyes while i was crying for him" he said, the remorse on his face made my heart bleed with sorrow,

The regret on his face is something is couldn't bear to see.

The regret is our worst enemy.

"I cried alot I was gone crazy and that made my parents to keep me at mental asylum for six months straight" he said, as my heart clenched hearing him.

Mental asylum? He was a mere child.

"I felt so terrible that I couldn't save my grandfather all my life till now, but what hurts more you know" he stopped and looked at me, with his pleading eyes.

I couldn't hold but felt my eyes getting glossy.

"That I cried for the wrong person, I thought of him as my ideal but he was a nightmare, he taught me the good way of life and good doings but he never lead a good life nor good doings"

"He taught me to be a good person because he was never one, the bad things which he did over the past is killing me inside, he was such a cruel person, and I regret crying for him, hating the innocents ones for him" the tears didn't stopped from his eyes, while he expressed.

"I don't know but I lost, I am feeling terrible after finding about his doings, he was a criminal, rapist, a thug and it feel so worst to even imagine" he said before he looked down on the floor in immerse guilt, pain and remorse.

I heard his sobs, and this is the first time I have seem him this much broken.  

I felt my tears flowing down my cheeks hearing him, he has gone through alot and still going.

"A-and what worst is daniel and dadi confirmed this things and they had every evidence about this, so clear and so realistic that I wasn't even able to utter a word in favour of him" he said with disappointment while he shook his head.
