Horizons of Love✓

Part 15

Arnav stood there waiting whole night for his moon to come but she didnt come. He didnt deserve this moon.He was one of those unlucky people who lose everything after gaining it for free.

Suna, Suna Mann Kaa Aangan,

Dhunde Paayal Kee Woh Chann Chann

Sunee, Sunee Mann Kee Sargam,

Dhunde Git Tere Humdum

Mann Me Shyaam Ho Ya Savera,

Laaga Teree Hee Yaado Kaa Dera

Tune Bandhan Kyon Yeh Toda,

Tune Kahe Ko Muh Moda

Kaho Naa Kaho Naa Kaho Naa

Next morning, Khushi was getting ready for school. She informed everyone that she had applied for NET exam and what it was. Buaji suggested that she shouldn't stress herself with exam and all. She asked her to chill and enjoy motherhood. But Khushi convinced them that she wont stress herself and it would keep her busy. Babuji was very happy. No one in their family had doctorate degree. He was glad she was doing whatever she wanted. Garima and Buaji agreed too, after some more convincing. Anjali and Payal had already appreciated her decision yesterday and assured her of any help, she needed. Arnav who had eavesdropped on their conversation was happy to know that she was taking such good decisions for herself. It was a proud moment for him that she doesn't depend on him any longer but it pinched him at the same time. He was no longer part of her decision making, she doesn't need him. She didn't feel the need to inform him coz he had no right. It was a painful thought.

Khushi waved bye to Buaji and had almost reached the bus stop when she heard Arnav calling her. So he didn't go home at all. Must have slept in his car. She had peeked through her window at 11pm to watch him eating pasta, sitting at the stairs.He looked so melancholic that she had to use superhuman efforts to not go out and sit beside him. She had to remind herself every pain that she had gone through and it worked for her. She wished he hadn't fasted for her. Why endanger his health for her? That too when it doesn't mean a thing now? All this was irrelevant. They were over. Khushi wiped the lone tear that escaped her eye. Bloody gravity!!

Phul Phul Bhawara Dole,

Mann Mai Gunjee Teree Yaad

Baagh Mai Papiha Bole, 

Pihu Pihu Piyu Kaha

Kaise Kaate Sunee Raate, 

Kaho Naa, Kaho Naa

Kaise Bhule Bite Baate, 

Kaho Naa, Kaho Naa

Kaise Thaame Phir Teraa Daaman, 

Kaise Mehake Mann Kaa Yeh Aangan

Kaise Bhule Prit Teree Sajan, 

Kaise Baandhe Tuta Yeh Bandhan

Mann Me Shyaam Ho Ya Sawera, 

Laaga Teree Hee Yaado Kaa Dera
