Till my last breath

Chapter 2

Arjun POV :

I woke up with jerk panting I look around I was in my room "Arjun wake up--" my mom stop at her tracks when she saw me.

She rushed towards me "what happen Arjun" she asked I didn't said anything just looking down.

"Did that dream come again" she asked cupped my cheeks I nodded my head wiping the sweat from my forehead.

"Please forget that Arjun it been years" she said a long tear slipped from her eyes I wiped it.

"But mom I am at that spot but I couldn't save her" I said "but you tried" she said I shook my head "no mom I didn't i was failed to protect her" I said.

Mom hugged me "stop accusing yourself it wasn't your fault we are all know it" she said. But I know it was my fault I have to save her but I couldn't.

"Okay now smile can you come with me to orphanage" she asked a smile appear on my lips when I hear orphanage.

"Yes mom I will" I said she kissed my forehead "get ready" she told me and left. I got ready and call my PA to inform that I won't able to come to office.

I went dining room saw dad "good morning arjun" he greeted "morning dad" I said and take a seat "dad I am not coming to office today" I said while eating.

He smiled "it's not necessary to inform me Arjun you are the CEO" he said I smiled "but still you have to know" I said we talk about office.

"Ah....Arjun I forget to tell you Mr.Varma daughter joining today" he said I look at him. "Why they have own company right" I asked.

"Yes but she wants to live independently and she didn't mention her surname in interview I impressed and she was gold medallist in her collage" he said I quit impressed about her.

I want to see that girl, she was like a nice girl that I didn't saw a girl like her. After breakfast mom and me went to orphanage.

When we enter children's ran towards me "good morning Arjun" they said I smiled "morning" I said.

I spent time with them when I was stepping into car I saw a girl came holding balloons and chocolates all children's ran to her she was talk with them with smile on her face.

I think she was the girl who daily came and spent her time with them warden Lakshmi told about her and children also her name--I forgot they said she was very nice girl.

I smiled "Arjun" mom called I look at her she was waiting for me I look at her one last time and get into car.

On the way to home "I saw you smiling after a long time" mom said "yes mom i saw a girl she was the one who Lakshmi ma told" I said.

I know lakshmi ma since my childhood she was first my caretaker after that mom build this orphanage and lakshmi ma taking care of this orphanage.

"I remember but I don't see that girl" she said sadly "don't worry mom we will meet her" I said.

A small smile appeared on my lips when I remember her today I smiled my whole heartedly after three years, when i lost her I forgot about happiness but this girl has something.

*******************

Mom insisted me to spend time with her we talk sometime and watch her favourite movie and I also went with her to NGO.

I saw Mrs. Sharma, mom and she meet for NGO they thought to share partnership. Whole day I spent time with mom I realise how much she missed me and I missed her.

I shut myself from everyone after she left me. At dinner dad talk about Sharma uncle daughter he was looking happy when he talk about her and mom also listening with happy face.

They smile after she left us only because of this girl.

What is happening this morning I become happy when I saw a girl and today dad and mom happy because of Sharma uncle daughter

After dinner I went to her room I look at photos "You know I saw a girl at our orphanage she was just like you, lakshmi ma told this girl spent time with children daily" I said looking at her photo.

She was smiling happily in photo a long tear slipped from my eyes "I know I am a cruel man who didn't protect his family" I said

"I am sorry Anjali I won't worth for this life" I said my voice cracked I sat on her bed this is her favourite room so simple just like her.

I slept on that bed I was missing her I won't have right to live this life when she lost her life because of me
