It was almost midnight and my sleep was far far away from me. I couldn't understand why though. Last I remember was, I felt guilty of hurting Manik and forcing those words but then I realised that whatever I said was my perspective. We were sharing our thought process.

But it was harsh. I knew my questions left him in fix. I know but then...

I sat straight on the bed and sighed. Picking up my phone from side, I instantly typed a message.

"Are you asleep?" No hi, no hello. Straight a question.

In just few seconds my phone beeped and a small smile appeared on the corner of my lips.

"Not yet..." a small simple reply. I sighed hard.

"Why though?" I replied.

"Was thinking something." That was his reply and the next second my fingers worked to call him.

He picked it up in just one ring and kept silent.

"Why so silent?" I asked in a hush tone.

"Why so late call?" He asked back.

I slightly smiled and replied "Manik... kya soch rahe ho?"

He sighed and kept silent for few second before replying "nothing just few stuff..."

"The talk which we had last night?" I asked carefully choosing my words.

"Kind of..." he replied immediately.

"Manik I know... but... it was all my perspective... I never meant to hurt you. I am sorry." I suddenly felt guilty.

"You don't need to be... I am not angry... nor hurt. You need to know me better friend." He spoke teasing me a bit.

A smile broke on my face but then silence spread across again.

"To then, why are you thinking so much?" I asked.

He let out a deep breath and spoke "was just confused. What to believe and what not? You know what your views and perspective is too strong and too harsh. I have seen otherwise."

"Does it wrong to have an opinion?" I asked cringing my brows.

"No no... that was not I meant. Okay... let me put it this way... you told me your parents story... I'll tell you mine..." he spoke and I could feel him sitting on his bed making his position comfortable as he took several second break.

"My Dad and Mom... they were madly and deeply in love with each other. From a very young age. Dad had already proposed to Mom. Everything was good. But then Dad had to choose... between my Mom and his career." He spoke and I frowned.

"What?" I asked.

"Yes... Dad wanted to be an actor. He worked as a theater artist in initial young age. He was good at it. He knew. Mom also knew that. She was supportive also. But then, when Dad thought of it practically, he knew that this limelight might affect their relationship. He knew at some point in his life, he'll be needing more in my Mom's life but this... this field will lead to complications in their love. Working with other women... late night shoots... success... Dad knew it all. Although Mom and Dad trust each other well but at some point they will too face the real problems of a relationship too. So he decided to sacrifice his dreams for her. For her love. Keeping her dreams above his dreams." He spoke.
