Kitni Baatein Yaad Aati hain...
Tasveerein si ban jaati hain...
Main Kaise unhe bhulu...
Dil ko kya samjhaun...One week passed by since Meera came home. Her parents had stayed back with her while her brothers went back.Now it was time for Meera's parents to leave too. In this past week, they had tried hard to make her come back to normal but it was hard still Meera's physical health improved and she was regularly taken for health check ups.Shekhar used to frequently visit .He tried a lot to strike a conversation with Meera...but he could not... She used to mention Sameer in every line that she spoke...and then memories used to hit her badly...
"Meera beta...If you say...we can stay for few more days... or you just come with us for sometime... " Meera's mother asked her worriedly ..but she calmly replied they should go as they had already spend so much time away from home. She needed sometime to be alone. She did not say. But they understood...Meera's father looked at her daughter and sighed...He wished there was something that he could do for his daughter...He came close to her and put a hand on her head...saying...
"Take Care Beta...You know that we are just a call away. Whenever you need...You are not alone..."
Meera acknowledged and hugged her parents...She knew they were helpless for her. When she was small, she used to ask them for anything and they used to get it but this time ..she knew they wont be able to fulfill her wish...
Soon they left her...and she was alone in the room...looking over her fate...then a hand came on her shoulder...
"Maa... "
Gayatri had come and stood by watching her looking outside window. Who else but she could understand what she was going through...Sameer was her only son... and she could feel pain that he left behind for her and Meera...
"Beta... Its been more than a month now. I know no time can heal our wounds but ..."
Her voice choked ..but she wanted to be strong for her daughter...only one left with her. When Sameer brought Meera to his house, she got a daughter along with a son from then onwards they had shared a bond as strong as Meera shared with her own mother...
"Maa...i have nothing left...nothing can be done about it... But dont you worry maa..I will live.. I wont leave you like sameer left..."
Saying that she hugged her Maa...yes she chose to live in darkness that her fate had brought in her life... She had only memories to live by...She had decided to live in those for the rest of her life...
Next day it was time for meera to go for her health check up and thus there he was without fail even before the time...
"Doctor said that one more week of medication and few tests today...Your BP looks normal now just some other tests are left.." Shekhar was seeing all the past reports and speaking ..but meera was in her thoughts..
"I think we should leave now.. Its getting late.. " Shekhar said ..seeing no response from meera...he came near to her and gently put a hand on her shoulder...
"Meera..I said lets go.."
"Haa..oh yes..lets go.." Meera came out of her thoughts..suddenly she realised something..
"Shekhar.. you are not going to your office today..? "
"Err...Well I thought I will take leave today..."
"Why.. "
"Nothing just thought ..you will require me so..."
"But why you always put me first ... You know I dont like this...I can take care of myself...i m not a kid..please stop this ..."
