||You Were Everything To Me||

Chapter-26

Jasmine's breath was caressing Arjun's lips. His eyes were closed.

Jasmine waited for Arjun to take a step ahead but he was sitting there with his eyes closed.

He wanted this only. Yes. Then why he was not initiating ? All these months he wished for this proximity with Jasmine and when he was getting it finally, he was not giving in.

Jasmine was about to place her lips on his when they heard someone calling them.

"Ki ho rea ae othe?(kya ho raha hai wahan?)"A man in his mid fifties dressed in Khakee Wardi came close to them.

Jasmine pulled away immediately and looked here and there.

"Sharam haigi ae tuhaanu dona nu? Ki ho rea ae ethe?(sharam hai tum logo ko. Kya ho raha hai yahan pe?)"He asked in angry tone.

"Dekhiye aap humse aise baat nahin kar sakte. Hum adult hain. Humari families ek dusre ko ache se jaanti hai. Aur ye humara personal matter hai"Jasmine said loud.

"Madam ji. Apka personal matter hai toh ghar tak rakho. Park mein ye sab na karo"Police constable replied her in angry tone.

"Dekho paaji. Tuc gussa na karo"Arjun tried to calm down him.

"Na kyun na gussa kran. Aaj kal te niyaaneya de maade hi haalat ne. Chalo thaane( kyun na karun gussa. Aaj kal ke bacho ke haalat khraab hai)"He said in angry tone.

"Paaji maaf kardo. Ago ni karde eho jeha kuch. Gal wdd ju bematlab ch. Kuch le de ke ni ho skda(bhai maaf kardo. aage se ni karte aisa kuch. Bematlab mein baat badh jaayege. Kuch le de ke ni ho skda?)"Arjun asked him while  panic written all over his face.

Jasmine was a silent spectator all this while.

Finally after some arguments and getting bribe that Police constable left.

"This is all because of you. I never felt so embarrased and ashamed" Jasmine yelled at Arjun.

"What ? Because of me ? You were about to kiss me, not me"Arjun yelled back.

"How dare you? You blaming me for this ?"Jasmine was furious.

"I am not blaming you. Its okay. He left. Leave"Arjun said.

"I was right Arjun. You are no where near Robin. When I was with him, he just wanted to meet me regularly, to be close to me. But I never gave in but he loved me with all my faults. He left.  And then after three years you came into my life. But came into my life to blame me for everything. You have problem with everything about me Arjun. You have problem with me going out with my male friends, you have problem when I spend time with my family. You have problem when I don't eat on time, you have problem when I refuse to meet you. You need a reason to fight with me.Every damn time "Jasmine shouted at him.

Arjun was numb after listening her words.  He was not able to react.

"Robin was way better than you. He is still asking me for friendship. He still cares for me and what you do? You only fight with me"Jasmine  said again.

Arjun felt like hitting himself hard. He prayed to God that it should be his nightmare. But no it wasn't .

"Jasmine"Arjun tried to catch her arm but she flinched back.

"Jasmine what Arjun ?"she shouted.

"Gaye ni tuc hje tak etho(gaye ni tum log abhi tak)"They heard the police constable again.

Jasmine stomped her foot and left the place. Arjun didn't try to go behind her and stayed there. He was staring at the night sky.

He was trying to analyse things. What was happening with him? What exactly happened today !!

What Jasmine said , hurt him a lot. He did every possible thing to make Jasmine feel special but she was never happy with him. She never cared about his wishes . That was why she never ever did something what Arjun wanted her to do.

Their relationship was running with her choices and his sacrifices.  Now he was tired. Tired of everything. Tired of these fights. If Kudrat would not have been there, they would have broke up long back.

She was the one who always calmed him down and made him understand and asked him to forgive Jasmine for her mistakes.

He listened to everthing Kudrat said and that was why he and Jasmine were still together.

He cared for Jasmine and what he got in return was BLAME. BLAME THAT HE WAS TRYING TO INVADE JASMINE'S PERSONAL SPACE.

He smiled sadly at himself. Jasmine never ever let him entered her personal space and there she was accusing him of invading her personal space. She was accusing him that he is trying to control her.

He didn't try to manofy Jasmine when she left the place in anger.

Then suddenly a thought crossed his mind. Jasmine was all set to kiss him then why he didn't initiate the kiss ? He was just sitting there with his eyes closed and was trying to find answer to all these questions when his phone buzzed.

"Arjun. Putt kithe o tuc. Enni raat ho chali ae. ( beta kahan ho aap. Itni raat ho gyi hai)"His mother said from the other end.

"Hmm. Hanji mummy. Aagya bs"Arjun said and hanged up.

It was already past 10 and he lost track of time. It was almost two hours since he was here, lost in his thoughts.

He reached home and retired to his room. He was tired. He settled himself on his bed and switched off the side lamp, When his phone beeped.

"Its over between us"Jasmine's text said.

Arjun read it and closed his eyes. He placed his phone at the table.

At that moment he didn't want to do anything. All he wanted was peace. Peace from these issues. He had no energy to fight and argue and soon he drifted to sleep.

Next morning, he woke up with a bad headache. His head was like it will burst any moment.

"Mummy"He called her mother.

"Haanji putt( ha beta)"Her mother entered the room and panicked as she witnessed him holding his head in his hands and pressing his temple.

"Mera sir ftt rea ae(mera sir ftt raha hai)"He said in a low voice.

"Ki hoya?(kya hua?)"She asked caressing his hair.

"Ptani"He replied feeling relaxed under his mother's touch. He placed his head on his mother's lap and hugged her stomach.

Meghna was amazed at her son's behavior. Arjun never behave like this. He was introvert and never show his love like this.

His mother smiled at his childlike antics and start pressing his forhead in order to sooth him.

"Sab theek ta haiga ae na?( sab theek toh hai na?)"she asked him.

"Haanji"He replied hiding his face in her stomach.

"Chal aaja. Tera favourite breakfast bnaya ae. Aaloo de pranthe. Kha ke aape e theek ho jaana ae sir dard( chalo aayo. Tumhara favourite breakfast bnaya hai. Aaloo ke pranthe. Kha ke apne aap hi sir dard theek ho jaayega)"she smiled and placed a kiss on his forhead.

"Hmmm. Tuc chalo. Main fresh hoke aaya"Arjun said.

She left the room. Arjun checked his phone . There was no messages, no miss calls from Jasmine.

Just one thing and everything was over for her. It is like she was searching for a reason to leave him. This was not such a big issue that she walked out of this relationship because of it.

But Arjun had no power to fight or argue. He was tired. Tired of running behind her. If she loves him, she will come back to him. But alas. Little he know that some people never change.

Then his thought drifted to Kudrat. Its been days since he heard something from her. He noticed that she was not in her usual self from some days. She was not messaging him or talking to him like she used to.

He wondered if that was because of that kiss they shared, but then he already cleared the air between them. He talked to her about that and she was okay with it. Then the thought crossed his mind.

"Hell man. If that kiss is bothering me so much, then it must had been a great effect on Kudrat. She is an innocent girl. He knew what was these things meant for her. For her this must not had been only a kiss. How the hell he forgot about this !! Kudrat said she was okay with it and he agreed. Just like that ? "He cursed himself.

He quickly took bath and got ready.
********
"Its confirmed na?"Kudrat asked.

"Yes Ma'am. Day after Tomorrow. 5 a.m."Man sitting in front of her said.

"Thank you"she smiled at him which didn't reach her eyes and shaked hand with him.
*********
It was 11 in the morning  when Arjun thought of meeting Kudrat. He called her but she didn't pick his call.

He again tried calling but it went unanswered. Then he called at her landline and her mother picked the phone.

"Sat shri akal aunty ji. Arjun" He said.

"Sat shri akal puttar ji. Aaj ghre phone kidaan(aaj ghar phone kaise?)"Kudrat's mother asked him.

"Actually Kudrat naal gal karni c. Phone chuk ni rahi o mera ( Kudrat se baat karni the. Phone utha nhi rahi vo mera)"He said.

"Oh. Ohda phone ghre e pya ae. Gurudware gayi ae. Aaundi ae te main gal kraundi aa( uska phone ghar par hi hai. Gurudware gayi hai. Aati hai toh main baat karwati hu)"she told him.

"Ji"Arjun said and hanged up.

He was hesitant , hesitant about talking about that kiss again but then he need to. He can't afford to loose her out of all the people.

But he didn't realize that SAND ALREADY SLIPPED FROM HIS HANDS. AND THERE WAS NO WAY BACK.

To Be Continued...❤
