"Ek din aap yun, humko mil jayenge,
Phool hi phool raahon mein khil jayenge,
Maine socha na tha!"
Akshara's giggles echoed in the hall of the Birla Mansion through the speaker as Abhi paused, twirled her around and lifted her high up in his arms. Her eyes twinkled like the brightest star in the dim lights of the hall, and the world stopped to stare at the beauty in his arms.
"Ek din zindagi itni hogi haseen,
Jhoomega aasmaan, gaayegi yeh zameen,
Maine socha na tha!"

"Apne bhai ko bachane ki koshish mein uske saath kya hua, woh kis haal mein hai... thik bhi hai ya nahi, humein yeh bhi nahi pata!"
Abhi unconsciously clutched the mattress on the other side of his bed - the side where Akshara once slept. His hands shivered in the cold emptiness of his bed, his room, his heart, his life.
"Agar itna aasan hai inn papers par sign karna, iss rishte ko todna toh iss rishte ko tod dena hi theek hai."
His breaths turned heavier.
"Main zindagi bhar isi soch mein nahi jeena chahti ke agar tumne mujh par bharosa kar liya hota toh kya hota... Par jaate jaate bahot badi seekh de di tumne Abhimanyu, kyunki ab aankhein band karke toh main khud par bhi bharosa nahi kar paungi."
"Akshu... please... dd..don't... mat jao..."
"Abhi!"
"Akshu... Akshu..." Abhimanyu could neither breathe easy nor wake up from the nightmare, "I'm... sorry... please..."
"...Par nateeje se badi niyat hoti hai, aur meri niyat mein hamesha tum thay, tum ho, aur tum rahoge."
"Abhi? Abhi!" He felt himself being shook hard.
"Wapis... wapis... chhod kar... mat... mat jao," Abhi gasped for breath, "Ak..Akshu..."
"I miss you Abhi. Happy Goodbye Anniversary!"
"AKSHARA!!"
"Ek din aap yun, humse chhin jayenge,
Dil ki duniya mein hum yunhi gir jayenge,
Humne socha na tha...
Pyar karne se ab, hum toh darr jayenge,
Aansuon ki kahani mein beh jayenge,
Humne socha na tha."

A short story on the separation track.
