Segment 19

Few years later ....
her point of view -
I hear my phone ring
its my best friend .. she is getting married... I can't believe we have grown up so soon
it seems like just yesterday that we were in college and now she is getting married ... she is marrying her college sweetheart
... wow...
I have stopped believing in the word relationships since that night ...mom came to know about it and she dint take it well...
She blamed herself for everything and suffered a heart failure...memories of my mom suffering came back and I begin to cry..
at first I refused to attend her marriage but after her persuance I finally agree...
his point of view -
I can't believe my brother is getting married..oh no our brobond will break now ..as now his gf ... his would be wife will enter between us... uff..!
after dad he was my only prized possesion and now bhabhi is coming in between .. but I am happy for him...at least he is completing his love story ...unlike me.. who is so unlucky that no one likes to stay with me..first mom... then dad ... then her... she had promised me that she will never leave me.. then why did she break her promise ???
why did she betray me ???
I can never ever forgive her for this betrayal..suddenly my blood began to boil.. and I threw away the nearest thing that I found.. and to my surprise it was a vase .. Bhai entered the room hearing the noise and tried to console me...
he has been doing that since that morning
... the morning she she betrayed me... but I guess some wounds don't heal..
at times I wonder whether she still remeberred me or thinks about me...
I needed distraction and bhai needed shopping so we went wedding shopping.
her point of view -
its been years since I have been there...
I don't know how it would feel to go there again...
Crazy thoughts surrounded me as I boarded the train back to my home ...( yea I always called that place home .. because it had given me the warmth and the love that I never experienced from that man's house )..
soon the train was nearing the station ...
my friend had told me that her to be husband's brother would come to pick me up as she and her husband had to go for other arrangements..
I wondered what his brother would be like... and I closed my eyes.
.. I saw him.
.he was the only ray of light in my dark life..he was my nightmare guy..
I opened my eyes and the train had already reached.
I wished I could meet him ... but then I remembered mom's last days and that dreadful night soon the thought vanished... I will not be able to see him in pain.. and love caused pain...so I had to stay away from him..had to stay away from the curse of love...
his point of view -
Bhai asked me to go and pick up bhabhi's friend as they had to go out for some arrangements
he slowly whispered in my ears ." check her out Bhai you need to move on.."
..but how could I tell him about my fears...
about me being scared of love
that if I love someone again then she will also be snatched away from me..
like dad...
like her...
how could I tell him that I was scared of loving someone... .scared of being deserted again ...??
I reached the station and started to look for her .. suddenly i saw her...
oh no why ???
i collected myself and dialed the number and heard a familiar voice pick up the call on the other side...the ground beneath me froze...
her point of view -
I saw him....he was searching for some one. then he turned and looked at me..
Omg..
why did I have too see him first thing in this city ..but then he again turns away as I don't exist and tries to call someone.. soon my phone began to ring... and I mutter a quiet thanks to God and I pick up the call and say hello...

"When you loved someone and had to let them go, there will always be that small part of yourself that whispers, "What was it that you wanted and why didn't you fight for it?"
