Unusual Friends - 11

Six Months Later,
A morning,

Me: “I love you…”

Aarushya: “If you really love me, don’t just say it. Show it too…”

Me: “I guess you really read all forward mails and messages that get delivered to your inbox!”

Aarushya: “Don’t you read mine then?”

Me: “Of course, Will read only those are from special people like you…J

Aarushya: “’Like me’ in the sense? You‘ve got more specials, right?”

Me: “Wrong”

Aarushya: “I need an answer…”

Me: “That was an answer, right?”

Aarushya: “Wrong!”

We have had many little fights, some really big ones like the one above (:-P) but I have never forgotten to wish her ‘Good Night’ everyday. The last thing I would ever do on a day is to make her a call and wish her good night and the first thing every morning I would do is Disconnect the call!

The distance between me and Sanjay started increasing day by day. I was pretty sure am missing him but I have no chance to hold him back to me. Whenever I moved a step further in love, I moved a step farther from him. I started adjusting, caring, and loving which I have never done before loving Aarushya. I wanted to show the same love and care to Sanjay, but I could hardly spend time with him. He was there with me when I needed a friend the most. I missed those walks, the chats we had, the love we shared and the discussions we made. May be am missing my own self more.

February 2012,

And once, when I went to meet Aarushya I was talking about Sanjay the most. I was feeling a bit odd and to make me feel comfortable, she was constantly changing topic. Finally we decided upon our lunch and started. I continued talking about Sanjay to her even in the ride. Aarushya lost her patience in hearing the same verse over and over and shouted, “Its ok. Am there, right? Leave him. He will be back if he wants to!”

Sanjay came from nowhere and I could still visualize his violent face at that moment. Aarushya too would have felt terrified. He shouted “You distanced from me for her? She wants to leave me! You heard that?” I couldn’t speak a word at that moment. I just wanted him to hug him tight and shout, “I need you the most!”

“But, what happened next was the accident and that is why we are here… and I have spoiled Aarushya‘s happiness… am sorry I have spoiled your happy moment too” I completed.

“It’s ok. Relax. Everything happens for some reason. We will trust in God. Soon, we all will be fine. Relax” Renu said. There was a still silence again. It was 5:30 in the morning and I needed a walk badly.

Renu started again, “Hey… Did you say your name?”

“Ha… Ha… I said about my life and left my name! I am Sanjay” I said with a little pause and started again, “A cup of coffee?” I offered.

She turned pale and I walked away.

It’s not over yet…
