"Are you insane!?" She yelled at the top of her lungs.

They were standing on a rooftop of a sixteen story building. Cold and harsh winds bustling past them, flowing her dress in result. The faint sirens of police mobiles with the danger of uniformed cops barging any moment by now wasn't helping at all.

And this stupid asshole was asking her to jump! From this height!?

"Do you trust me?" He looked directly in her brown eyes, asking in a serious tone.

Voices of cops were coming closer, they were asking them to stop.

"Not even a slightest bit!" She snapped.

"Good. Now on the count of three we will jump, okay?... One.." He said holding her hand.

Loud calls and steps can be clearly heard. They were coming closer..

"It is a very bad idea." 

"Two.."

"Can't we just fight with them?"

"Three... Now!" 

And they both jumped..

"Do you want to go back to him? Are you still in love with him?" He asked, staring at her in trepidation. The fear of losing her was visible in his voice and tearful eyes. "I wish! " A wistful smile appeared on her face, "But That's impossible now. You know It hurts to love someone and not to be loved in return, But what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel. In hope of love I lived. I hoped for love with all my heart now I'm hopeless, falling apart. I'm tired of watching the person I love be in love with someone else. Craving for someone else's presence when I'm present in his life. It's too late for a second chance, although I'd love to know where we'd have been, If only we had tried....But unfortunately... His love for her left him broken forever and my hope of love left me empty for eternity with no hope of love again." He is her husband, the father of her children, her life partner but only committed by responsibilities and obligations....not by love. He's there in her life through thick and thin but only as duty....not as desire. He'd spend more than a decade with her, but only as housemates and co-parent of their children....not as companion. There's every emotions in their relationship but the love is dead...and only Hope is left. 'HOPE OF LOVE' Join "Hope Of Love" the story of Jahan and Jannat.
