"Stop don't come near me." She stepped back. Her hand was bleeding and making her white dress red. "Megha listen to me..." I tried explaining. "Just stop." Tears rolled down her cheeks. I have never seen her that weak and vulnerable before. "You have spoken a lot...... Today i am going to speak and you are going to listen......all my life you just tried spoiling everything for me. Grades comparison, extra curricular activities, in business and then our marriage." She said gripping her hand and making her bleed more. "I tolerated everything your teasing, your stupid comments, smoking, the problems you caused in my life...... Everything. But this...... this.....this is something i can never forget and forgive" She fell on the floor and looked at me. "I hated you all my life but now when i want to hate you the most.....I am not able to.....i am not able to hate you and you know why?..... Because i don't know when, where and how but i have fallen madly in love with you." My heart stopped hearing her words. She loves me. She was a mess now. Face covered with tears, eyes read, her bleeding hand and her blood dress. The moment i closed and opened my eyes, she was on the floor....lying motionless.
