HUMSAFAR ~ Love Has No Barriers

22 ~ Will you be my side..?

~ Neil's pov

I came out of the conference room after witnessing the heated argument between the whole family.

I went near the small temple set up at the corridor of the hospital

I went there and so many things were playing in my mind.

How I met her at the resort,
How her small eyes widened when she saw me for the first time.. obviously half naked,
How she always got annoyed when I was around her,
How we always bumped into each other,
How one day she saw me only on my kurta and without pants,
How my heart halts every time I see her in traditional attire,
How she sacrificed her own respect only for her sister's love,
How she hit my nose and lovingly touched it,
How she hugged me so dearly for the first time at the hospital,
How she spoiled my shirt by drenching it with her little sobs,

How she is.. she is great, confident, talented and perfect girl who was damn ambitious..

And yeah.. talking about her.. she did nothing but saved so many lives. She used to sacrifice her own sleep to serve  the patients.

She promised to save everyone's life in this world who needs her.. but what did she get in return from this world.? Trauma, cruelty, and endless wounds. Did she deserve this..? Did she deserve this cruelty. No. No girl deserves this.. women don't deserve such cruelty from this world.

In fact, this world doesn't deserve women. Today it was Aarohi, tomorrow someone else will be at the news. The names will change but the problem will never change.

But who should be blamed for her condition.?

Should it be her family who let her go alone in that village.? Should it be her who was roaming alone in that abandoned road.? Should it be me who left her there alone.? Or should it be the Birla hospital management who couldn't take care of their student's safety..? Whom should we blame.

But the one who actually gave her the trauma..

what did I get..? What did she get? After killing those bastards.. Did I get peace.? No.!! Did she get healed.? No. Will this never happen again.?

Again there is no answer for this.

What should I do to get my old aaru back..? Whatever takes me to do right bhagwan ji..?

Yeah I promise you bhagwan ji..!! By hook or by crook. I'll bring back the old confident Aaru who will again work and achieve even more. I will dedicate my whole life for healing her. I will. This is my promise.

I sweared on myself and went from there.

My eyes started to get blurry due to tiredness and lack of sleep from past 3 days. I wanted to go and stand near Aarohi, but I guess if I go there.. Goenkas will definitely say something.

So I better wait at some other place.

My chain of thoughts broke when Bhai came

"Neil.. look at yourself.. your health is getting worse now. Your eyes are turning red.. go home and have some sleep." Bhai said.

"Bhai.. I can't go home. What if Aarohi needs me..?" I tried to say.

"Neil.. Aarohi needs doctors and moreover her whole family is present here. You go home and get some sleep. Or else you'll get admitted here for 3 days I guess." Bhai said.

"Bhai.. you don't understand. I.. I want to be with her."  I said by looking down.

"Neil.. didn't you just see.. Goenka family thinks that it happened because of you. I don't think they will allow you to meet her." Bhai said.
