Selfish Love

Shot 3

Raj was happy with his wife and baby that he now think less about his first love,maybe this is called move on.
Sometimes a small prick is enough to burst bubble of joy.

Raj got an invitation from his school informing about the reunion of his class and the family is also invited. This time his heart had an urge that he would be seeing Shika after a long time,his heart beat raised then the face of his wife and daughter made him aware of the reality that it would be cheating if he thinks about his past .

He showed the card to Radhika and she was excited to meet his batch. He was surprised by the nature of her .

The day of reunion came and Raj along Radhika left for the venue leaving their baby with grandparents. When he entered the place all known faces greeted him with a smile and he thought he'll turn to the boy he was when he hanged out with them.

Time passed there were various activities and plays. Raj and wife enjoyed a lot. Radhika got mingled with his batch mates and their wives. Raj excused himself and went to drink water. While having water someone gave a tap to his shoulder and he tuned to see the person in front,it was Shika. Her presence was a surprise for him because he didn't think she'll actually come for the function from States.

Their eyes met like their first meet. Shika had tears brimming from the corner and without a second thought she hugged and sobbed. He was in dilemma whether to respond to the hug or not. His heart won and hugged her back forgetting the events going around . They departed and she said sorry to him.

R: how are you
S: fine I guess. How are you doing

S: he is in U.S..he doesn't have time always busy.no one loves me
R: I don't know what to say.come .meet my wife.she'll be happy to see you
S: are you sure she will be happy to see me. I was your girlfriend
R: she knows everything

Raj introduced the past to the present. Radhika wasn't a girl who takes it a negative thought so she welcomed shika and they jelled well. She even invited her for lunch at their home. They all enjoyed and left.

Shika called raj they talked. One day after work when he stepped into his house he saw Shika playing with his daughter and Radhika busy in kitchen.
R: why is Shika here and you came early
Ra : Shika told me to take leave today and she wants to enjoy meal with us
R: ummm and he left

Raj came to take his baby suddenly Shika and his hands brushed. And she went really close to him in the pretext of giving the baby. Raj just moved away. While having food also Shika just tried to be close to him and this irked him. She said bye to Radhika and asked raj to accompany her.

R: what are you trying to do there
S: what did I do
R: don't try to be innocent. This sudden proximity
S: I need love raj only you can
R: we both are married and it's cheating our partners
S: I don't think so.you are happy with such a sweet family .what about me I too want someone to love me.my hubby doesn't even look at me,for him work is important.and now he'll be happy
R: sorry
S: I'm sorry.you know I'm dying
R: what rubbish
S: true I'm at the last stage of leukemia
Raj felt a sudden pain and he left the place.

He said Radhika that Shika is counting her days. She too felt bad. Another day he got a message from Shika asking him to go with her alone to a temple at a far distance because she can't ask any other help and it's her last wish. He hesitated first but Radhika told it's her last wish and they both should go.
