There comes a time in our lives when you have to make some life changing decisions. The decisions which you never thought you will ever take in your life but life is unpredictable. You never know what you will have to decide at a point of time in your life especially when it concerns the person you love most in the whole world. There won't be any hesitancy in deciding something which might change your perspective of life because there will be only determination of love which will give you enough strength to be firm on your decisions. Love never means to be selfish, it always means being selflessly in love with someone in such a way that if you have to give up your any dream for them, you won't ever back off because nothing is more beautiful than having someone's love for the rest of your life as all things come and go but what doesn't change is your love.

Isha had been staring at Raisha with wide eyes since the moment she had declared her decision of dropping out of college. At first, she thought that she was hallucinating but seeing a strong determination in Raisha's green eyes, her doubt was removed. She knew Raisha loved Aayush beyond limits, but never it occurred to her that she was willing to give up her career for him.

"What are you even saying? Do you realize the depth of your words?" Isha asked stammering a little due to the shock she felt while Raisha just gave her a small smile.

"Why would you ask like that?" she asked back instead.

"Because you are sounding like a psycho to me. You came here to make an independent identity and now you are just giving it up when the success is at your doorstep", Isha replied outraged. Her high voice made Raisha flinch but her eyes darted to her bedroom door, to check up on Aayush.

"Lower your voice, I don't want Aayush to listen, anything, at least he shouldn't know until the day after tomorrow when I will finally drop out from college", Raisha replied firmly.

"Raisha don't do this! What about your dreams? How can you leave them like that?" Isha begged helplessly; not knowing how to convince her.

Raisha took hold of her hand in hers and said in a low voice "My Aayush is also forced to give up on everything. Do you know how much it is hurting him? No right! But I know because I live in him and he in me. He doesn't say anything but I can feel the void of his heart, I can feel the pain he is going through every day which he is trying to mask from me but what he doesn't know is, that his Raisha knows him since he was 12, she had loved him since then and the three years she spent with him, she had known him this much to realize when he is happy and when he is sad".

"You know when we were in the 7th standard, once he scored less in English test and the entire week he was upset. He asked me to explain the chapter again and again until he remembered all of it and wrote it on his own. So just imagine if scoring less in the test could affect him this much, how much he would be hurt now?'' she added with her tears rolling down her cheeks.

Isha just sat too stunned to even react but composing herself she asked: "And what about your goals and motives to prove yourself?"

She smiled a little and replied: "Your brother changed that with his love".

She stood up from her place and went near the Window and staring at the moon she added "You know when I broke down after hearing his words what I vowed to myself? I vowed that I will fight and I will recover and one day I will meet you again so that I can show you that I don't need anyone's sympathy. I worked day and night because his words were like a guiding path for me. I only wanted to see him for once and show him who actually I am but see my fate we met again and this time, he was the one trying to get My attention. He made me fall in love with him all over again in those seven days in such a way that when I confessed him, my love, I took another vow and that was to only live for him and beside him. I forgot everything else after getting him because he was the biggest dream ever I saw since I was 12 and after having him as my husband I didn't want anything else."
