Eyes rarely lies. Rishi had read what Taani didn’t show. They met first very formally at the library, then a card shop and then the coffee bar at the interval of a month each time. Then the meetings became frequent moving onto more happening places like theatre, discos, parties and friends’s place. Time flew by like a bird, relation became stronger, feelings were understood, but there was something which was yet to be heard in words. Rishi had repeated it thousand times by now and was waiting to hear it from Taani. Those three beautiful words.
5 months later..
Rishi’s birthday. They spent the whole day together at a beautiful resort along with several other friends. Sunset, the day was over, and the time to go rushed in. Though Rishi was very happy to have spent the best birthday of his life, and Taani’s presence was the gift in itself, he still wanted something more. He dropped his friends first who were seated in his car, and then went to drop Taani at her hostel. She got down, waived a bye and started walking. Rishi was watching her without a blink. She paused, and so did Rishi’s heartbeat. She turned, came back to him, and held his face in her hands. His face got brightened. She placed a smooth peck on his right cheek, gave him a folded paper and walked back on her way. It took him few minutes to collect himself and see that she was already gone. He was on cloud nine to read those beautiful verses which said;
It’s difficult to compose myself when I see you
You don’t make a move but your air says it all
Your deep dovey eyes asks for my love
The peripheral smile draws me closer
Your silent lips demands a lock to be further Speechless
The smell intoxicates me
Your downy arms urges me to get lost in your embrace
When you are in my sphere, It becomes a battlefield, where
I long to loose to you and want you to win over me..
I feel the same as you do…I confess, yes I do..
A week later
-hi, you are looking beautiful-
-thanks, only you think so-
-no, seriously, ask any man out here, you will get the same reply-
-I don’t need to, what you say is what I trust-
-oh…I love you for this sweetness, that’s how you mange to kill me every time..
-Okey..now listen, I have to say something to you, but before that… thanks a lot for coming into my life-
- even I have to ask you something Taani, and please stop thanking me, how many times will you do that?-
-okey, then you go first-
-no,no, let it be you-
-I request, you say first-
-Ok, Taani, why do I get the feel that you are someone more deeper and sadder in yourself than what meets my eyes, I mean, what could have been the reason that it took you so long to confess your love, is everything alright with you?-
-indeed, that’s what I have to talk to you about-
-tell me then-
- but before that you have to promise me that come what may, our love will remain unaffected-
- do you doubt it?-
-no I don’t, but I still want a promise-
-okey, I promise, but you know I don’t keep my promises-
-stop kidding, be serious-
-okey, am serious and all ears to you, what is it that is bothering you so much-
“Hello Sir-Madam, please excuse us, sorry to disturb you, but you need to vacate this place at the earliest as we are expecting a huge crowd within short time, we will be glad by your co-operation”- quoted the volunteers of an NGO organizing a show for children.
-certainly we will, common Taani, let’s go somewhere else and talk at ease-
- that’s okey, we will talk later, this event reminds me I have to deliver a speech at our hostel’s function tonight, I must leave now, we will talk later-
-oh, please, wait for sometime Taani-
-try and understand Rishi, I must go, we will meet tomorrow-
-you sure?-
-Sure darling, bye for now-
- see you soon, I will miss you-
A month later
Rishi was eagerly waiting for Taani at a friend’s place, and taani was summing up all her energies and words on her way so that she could say everything she wanted to, without hesitation.
-oh Taani, where were you? what took you so long?, I would have died if you had not shown your face within next 5 minutes-
-calm down Rishi, what is this impatience about?, you know it takes one through traffic hell and pestering time to reach this place, you knew I was already on my way-
-give me a hug Taani, I just cant live without you-
- what happened Rishi, why are you behaving like this? is everything alright?-
-no, nothing is alright, but now it will, because you have come, just be with me, don’t leave me, keep holding me like this whole life, I want to die in your arms-
-please tell me Rishi, what is wrong, am already very nervous, don’t make me more, please say something-
-Taani, promise me, you will never leave me, wherever you are, whatever you do, you will always love me, and I know, you never break your promise-
- I promise-
-thank God, thank you, thank you Taani, thank you so much-
-now can you please please tell me, what’s the matter, see, even I have to tell you something which is very important for you to know-
-Taani, my father’s best friend and his wife had died in an accident last year, their only child- a daughter was sent to the hostel to finish the last year of her graduation, and now she has come to stay with us as none of her relatives are willing to take care of her-
-poor girl-
-no, say poor boy, my parents wants me to marry her-
-what?-
-yes, they don’t mind even if it happens after some years, but they want a promise from my side, how can they do this to me?, I am not going to let them throb their decisions on me-
-so, what have you decided-
-what is there to decide darling, we are getting married-
-be serious Rishi-
-do you think, am in mood of making some kind of joke, am serious, very very serious, my parents don’t approve of our relationship and so no other option left with us, let us elope, I have told my friends to make all the arrangements, it will take a day or two, and then, you are all mine and am yours-
- aren’t we?-
-of course we are Taani, but that is all in your divine state, right!-
-right, but isn’t that more rigid, stable and important?-
-it is , it is, I never denied, but I want something more-
-that is the epitome my love, when you love someone chastely, when you achieve someone spiritually and the feeling is mutual, that is all what one can aim for in love-
-oh my nirmala devi, my sant mahatma, I agree to all that you say, but you know, I want you in every form-
- your mood changes so fast Rishi-
-common now, we have whole life to discuss this all, right now, you have to tell me, what all you want to do in our sweet simple wedding-
-nothing-
-what, throw this arrogance Taani and be serious-
-I am-
-what does it mean?-
- it means, I don’t want to do anything, and it means I can’t ……-
-what?..tell me Taani, what?-
-Rishi, I am sorry, but I can’t marry you-
-shut up, shut up Taani, is this some kind of joke we are enacting, you fool, this is our life, how can you simply say you can’t marry me, you can’t say such a thing to me, no, you just cant, tell me , you are lying-
-I am not lying Rishi, please calm down and listen to me,I told you I had to talk to you something very important, but you..-
-no, not at all, I don’t want to listen to anything , nothing can be more important than you and me, you bloody selfish, how could you do this to me, you know how much I love you and still you have the guts to say all this, now I know you Taani, this is you, this is you, bloody selfish, fiendish girl who played with my emotions, played with my heart, how could I not see all this, oh god, why was I so blind in your love Taani, please, please tell me Taani, whats my fault?
-Nothing Rishi, no faults of yours, you have to listen to me first-
-no, I don’t want to, what would you say? you will give me all crap, stupid reasons why you can’t marry me, oh common, stop fooling me, am not going to trust you anymore, I should have got alert when Chutki had told me that Taani is a tough nut, but no, I didn’t think of anything, any one, just went mad about you, you and you, I gambled my studies, I risked my career, everything for you Taani, everything for you..and see, look at you, the shameless girl, so nicely telling me that she can’t marry me, great!, great! Now, if only you will decide everything about us, tell me what I should do after you are gone, tell me na-
-stop it Rishi, please-
-hello, hello, what is please and all, and why this tears in your eyes, don’t do this drama in front of me, am not going to get melted again, now I know you for all, so please, don’t try this tactics on me, am not going to trust you anymore, is that clear, now please, get lost, go away from my life, and don’t you dare show me your face again-
-anything else Rishi-
-why? do you want me to humiliate you even more, do you want me to call you names, haa?, I can do that, you know , I am good at that, I can abuse you to the least level-
-do it-
-oh leave it, you know what you are, a bitch who can never be trusted, so get lost-
-am going –
-yes, please mam, leave me for better, and yes you forgot to tell me what I should do now?-
-marry that girl, bye-
