Riya Sharma, a girls who is not desired by any man in this world. No man in today's world would want a women who doesn't have good physical appearance, style, confidence, beauty, talent etc. But like every girl Riya dreamed of a fairy tale love stor...
It's been a bit long in car, Kabir didn't remove his hand from my shoulder. I feel so safe and happy at that moment. My hand was resting on his chest. I was able to hear his heart beats. I really felt in heaven. After a while, we reached at some place. It was very dark out there. I didn't understand anything. Suddenly Kabir lifted my face up and said cheerfully.
Kabir: We reached. (He got down from car and came to my side to open the door for me. He gave his hand and helped me to get down. He pulled me closer to him and said) close your eyes Riya. (I did as he said)
He took my hand and took me somewhere. My eyes were closed but I could feel his gaze on me. I really felt shy. I felt him coming closer to me and he said.
Kabir: Your cheeks have turned pink and they look very cute. (I immediately put my head down to cover my face. I could hear his small laugh. Suddenly he stopped somewhere and said.) Don't open your eyes, I will just come. (I nodded my head and he went, I could feel the chilly winds on me. In no time Kabir came back and said) I will count 3, as soon as I say 3 open your eyes. (I nodded) 1.....2.......and...3.
And I opened my eyes, but what I saw was the most beautiful sight in my entire life.

I could not say anything. I had tears in my eyes. I wanted to pinch myself and make sure that this is reality. I turned to him with the happiest smile on my face. He silently came near me and said.
Kabir: Come with me. (He took my hand went near the table, pulled chair for me and made me sit on it and he sat on the other chair. He took my hand and asked) How is it???? Did you like it???
Me: Like??? I loved it. I didn't even expect such a beautiful scene in front. I have no words.
Kabir: I know we had a rough start Riya but I really want to do everything for you to make it alright.
Me: I really don't know what to say. To be honest, I also wanted to do something for this marriage to work but you were so angry, I was really scared to open my mouth in front of you.
Kabir: Sorry for that and...... (Till that time someone came with some food and placed it on the table and went.) Let's eat. (We started eating our food. It was simple food. While eating Kabir told me lot more thinks about his life. I was just hearing him out. After we had dinner, we were sitting on sand and looking at the sky. Suddenly Kabir asked me) what are you thinking Riya???
Me: Life. How it changes in a second naa???? Once it's hard on you and other moment its gives you all the happiness in the world.
Kabir: and that happiness will always say with us Riya. I promise.
Me: (I looked at him and asked) I know it's too quick for you, but can I ask you something????? It's a wish.
Kabir: Command me.
Me: I want to live a normal life. (As soon as I said that, tears started flowing from my eyes) I want to live happy. I am not able to sleep at night, I get up in early morning with fear of being hurt or punishment. I want to have this loving family for life. I want to be free of all fears, I don't want to live like this. (Kabir immediately pulled me into a hug and didn't let me go)
Kabir: Riya I would have helped even if you would have not asked me to help you. But one thing, you have to trust me and tell me everything then only I can help you. I understand the amount of difficulty but you have do it Riya for you, for us.
I was in shock and fear but he was right I need to do this. I was about to say when he interrupted....
Kabir: Not today, some other day. Do you want some ice cream???
Me: I never had an ice cream.
Kabir: Ok I will show you how to eat.
We went and sat on dining table and saw a glass filled with something pink colour and it was decorated beautifully. That was ice cream strawberry flavor. He sat across me and showed how to have it. I enjoy my first ever ice cream. We stayed there for some time and then we left for home.
We reached home past midnight. We should be tired but I was thinking of our first outing. We reached our room and he went to change inside. I was waiting for him to come out so I can change. He came out and asked me.
Kabir: Riya can I see what's in your suitcase???? (I wanted to say him a big "NO" but I knew I had to do this. I was saying to myself "Trust him Riya, Nothing will happen." I said a yes and went inside the bathroom to bring my suitcase out but Kabir said) I will help you. (He carried the suitcase out and kept it at the balcony side. He sat down and asked me to sit. I was about to sit next to him but he pulled me on his lap and said.) I want you this close.
I smiled at him but with a fear on my face. He kept his hand on mine and said "its ok Riya, I am there for you. Do it for us, for you." I opened the suitcase slowly and I saw inside my dark and fearful past which was saying my story and mocking at me. I was about to close when Kabir stopped me and hugged me tight. I was very scared, but he was there. I said
Me: these are my cloths, all old and torn. I used to get new clothes on Diwali and New Year. I used all Sheetal auntie's cloths. I used to sleep in kitchen on plane floor without pillows and blanket. Many times in winter, I used to get fever but I never had any sweater to wear or medicines to eat. Shanti Tai used to give me Haldi milk from the remaining milk left without anyone's notice. I......I..... Really.....mi....miss....Her.... (I cried profoundly. I could not resist. Kabir took me in his arms and let me cry. He was patting my back and said)
Kabir: Cry as much as you want now Riya. After this, you are not going to cry for this same reason. (I don't know when I cried and when I went to sleep but today I felt light and right)
KABIR PROV
She slept in my arms, I carried her till bed and laid her on the bed. I could not sleep that night. I am just shocked, can someone hate somebody this much that she lets her rotten in hell??? That to with someone like Riya???? Shanti Tai was right. It's not that simple as it looks but I need to get everything out of her so she can lead a life for herself. I need someone who can help me get her out of this depression because if she stays like this, it will kill her.
Let me ask Shanu (Dr. Shantanu Khanna, the best psychiatrist in this country and my best friend) He might be able to help me out. I immediately called him and he picked up in a sleepy voice.
Shanu: Hello
Me: Shanu, I need your help.
Shanu: At night 2:30????
Me: Yaa, it's important very important. I want to meet you tomorrow but not in your clinic, in some café or something. Tomorrow 8 am???
Shanu: So early???
Me: Yaa, I told you its urgent.
Shanu: Ok, now let me sleep, Good night.
I cut the call and looked at Riya. I went close to her and said "EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE AL RIGHT"
