me even after knowing that I am already committed to you.”

 

“What exactly happened?? Tell me that.”

 

“We all had gone for a movie yesterday after college and Asif too was with us. After movie he came to drop me home. And there while leaving he proposed me.”

 

“What????? How could he? I knew from his eyes there was something going on his head. See I warned you about his intentions beforehand but you overlooked my words and now the consequences are in front of you.” I said with confidence.

 

“Yes I admit Rohit that you were correct. But believe me I had no idea he would say something like this. I straight away said “No” to his proposal. I rebuked him for his act we had a big scuff and I broke all ties with him.”

 

“See on that day also when we had argument on this I was trying to explain you the same thing. He was being over friendly with you even after knowing that you are committed. There was no point of entertaining his advances.”

 

“I am sorry Rohit. This will never happen again. I didn’t disclose this to you because I thought you would scream at me.” She said with heavy tone.

 

“This is where you take me wrong. Why would I unnecessary scream at you? Have I ever pointed or interfere in your space. You have your own College friends and you sometimes go out with them. It’s okay but there is fine line between friend and lover which should never be crossed. I trust you whole heartedly but again I am scared of your innocence. Our relationship is based on mutual trust and it’s the responsibility of ours to maintain this. Otherwise relationship are like glass once broken though can be mended but the cracks will always remain there.”

 

“I am sorry Rohit..,,I really mean it.” She said and started crying profusely.

 

“It’s Okay. Please don’t cry it makes me feel bad … Yes there are times when I yell at you and apologize immediately once my head cools off. But have I ever hurt you?” I enquired looking straight into her eyes.

 

“No.” She replied with promptness.

 

“I just beg only one thing and this is transparency in our relationship. I have never hided a single thing from you and expect the same from you. But there have been instances when you have done that though not very sensitive but it stills hurts me baby and this is the reason I get hyper. Hope you understand my point.” I said with a smile to make her feel better

 

“Yes I do and I promise it will never happen again.” She responded back with smile.

 

 

“That’s like my sweet babyyy, common give me a tight hug my honey.” I said opening my arms towards her.

 

She ran and got embraced in my arms. I kissed her forehead and closed my eyes.

 

“Can I tell you one thing babbyy?” She said raising her head while still in my arms.

 

“Yeah sure…you have every right to say anything.”

 

“I don’t know should I love you more or should I admire you?

 

“Now what makes you say such thing???”

 

“You have the talent to woo any girl. Though most of the times you remain introvert but when you speak the other person is bound to listen to you. Even I found those economics lecture very interesting when you helped me during my 12th board exams. Before that I hated that subject. You are master in making people understand things.” She said still cuddling in my arms.

 

“Is that so?? Hmmmmm I didn’t know that.” I replied with my eyes still closed.

 

“Yeah my family always praises you for this. Remember when you had come newly to our house to stay for few days.”

 

Ohhh yes…how could I forget that and you behaved like I was an alien. You maintained 10 feet distance from me and hardly spoke.

 

“True…but I used to listen very attentively when you used to chat with Mom about your life, your place and your friends and everything. My Mom always praises you a lot and so do my friends.”

 

“Ohhhh I see…..but you never told me that before.”

 

“Do you remember my cousin sister Avantika?? Once whom you admire very much for her dancing skills during one of our family function at our house.”

 

“Ohhh Yess… that school girl who dance so perfectly in the song “Ladki badi anjani hai” She is so cute and has hair style like the small girl in the movie “Kuch Kuch Hota hai”.

 

“Yeah the same Avantika whom you gifted the red chunni like the movie. She once told me that she has a crush in you. She once even told me, “Didi it’s your good luck… had I been little older I would had married Rohit”. Can you believe her words….she is just 14 years old.”

 

“Hahahhaha …she is awesome, I must say. Tell her to try in movies she dances well and at this tender age she has great attitude same like Bollywood actresses. Its long I haven’t met her, bring her home some day we will have lunch together.” I said while laughing loudly.

 

“Okay sure… now listen what I am saying. Don’t interrupt me again.” She said jerking my body.

 

“Okay where was I …haaahhh so when you were staying with us in our house I used to listen very attentively when you chatted with Mom and slowly I started admiring you and didn’t know when this admiration transformed to love. But I didn’t have the guts to express my love. Had it not been Ria’s over friendliness with you at the New Year Party. I would have never said what I did.”

 

“Hmmmmmm now I understood!!!! Just because Ria was acting friendly you got jealous, so what if she had proposed to me that day. Then I would have holding her now in my arms instead of you….hahahhahaa.” I said and laughed.

 

“I would have killed her before that.” She said getting out of my arms.

 

“Okay okay ….just kidding…but she is a nice girl.” I said putting her back in my arms.

 

 

“I don’t want to listen anything more…. Ria my foot.” She said and embraced again in my arms and we became silent.

 

Though my life was full of miseries but I was still happy because I had Sakshi in my life. When you have a person for whom you are her world. Life becomes so meaningful. I think this is the power of love.

 

 

Past few months had been really tiring for both us so to beat our stress we decided to go for a movie show, my favourite Aamir Khan’s Ghajini. At the schedule time we entered the movie hall and as soon the movie began we were there like love birds holding hand in hand in the dark and watching the movie. She looked and smiled at me and slowly leaned on my shoulder, as a gesture of my love I gave a small peck on her cheeks. It was the magic of Aamir Khan or the person sitting by side I don’t know but those three hours passed in jiffy.

 

We came out of the hall while she was still crossing her hands around my arm and we were busy discussing the climax of the movie as how it was not up to standard and that it could have been made more interesting…few steps forward and I stumbled; I saw a face in front of me and my eyes remained spilt wide open… “Kaushik Da you!!!!” Sakshi said in nervousness and separate her hand from mine in reflexes.

 

Kaushik just kept staring at me but didn’t utter a single word. Sakshi stood aside quietly with her eyes continuously gazing the ground. He then turned towards Sakshi who was still in the same position. He then gave me a final glare and grabbed her wrist and moved steps ahead and got into the taxi and vanished. While I was still watching their taxi disappearing in the same position like a statue.

 

My heart started pounding heavily thinking about what will happen to Sakshi once she reaches home. I went to the nearby pan shop and lighted one cigarette. The images of tiff between Kaushik, Sakshi and her Mom started revolving before my eyes and the consequences made me shivering. I immediately called Sanjeev and narrate him the incident. He got worried too and advised me to have a word with Kaushik but I said no at this moment he must be heated. I will talk to him later and asked Sanjeev to go their house and report me what’s going there. First he was not willing to do so but when I kept on insisting he agreed finally.

 

I came home straight was impatiently waiting for Sanjeev’s call. Around 6:00 pm he called me and said, “Rohit come to Sakshi’s house as quickly as you can.”

 

“Is there anything serious? What was Kaushik reactions?” I asked him panicking.

 

“I don’t have much idea but as far I know Kaushik spoke for a while with Aunty and then left the home and now Aunty is chastising Sakshi in the other room. I can clearly hear their conversation, I can’t explain you all these over phone. Come as quickly you can.”

 

“Okay I will be there in half an hour.” I said and disconnected the call.

 

Without wasting a second I took a rickshaw and was there near her door but could not muster the courage to press the doorbell which was just an inch far from me. Several times I thought I should return back and it would be better if i talk with Kaushik first. If I could persuade him then he might help me to convince about this with Aunty. I turned and was about to return back but stopped after taking few steps as my heart bounced back to me and said, “It was a decision of both of you to fall in love then how can you let her face the hardship alone. Have you ever realized what she might be going through right now? How can you be so selfish Rohit? And you want to wait till the situation calms down. Why only she should face the music you need to be there by her side now. Just go and confess to her Mom now, if being in love is offence then you are the one who should be penalized more than her daughter.”

 

The very next moment I turned back again and took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell, within second it was opened and I saw Sanjeev standing there in front of me with a grim look. I didn’t say him anything and enter directly in Sakshi’s room. She was there standing near the window and Aunty was there, with her back facing me, she was screaming at her. She notices my presence and turns back. She became quiet and was about to leave but I request her to sit…Sakshi glanced at me and stood in the same position as she was.

 

There was complete silence and I felt I was in the courtroom like an accused while Sakshi was the victim and her Mom as the judge for our case….. Ohh yes Sanjeev was also there standing at my back as the lonely audience and so on my hearing started.

 

 

“I am really sorry Aunty, if I have hurt you by any means.” I started my own prosecution in a very formal tone.

 

No response!!!! She just kept quiet sitting in front of the bed and didn’t even bother to look at me. I raised my face and gawped at Sakshi who was now looking at me, her eyes gave me some courage and I moved forward and sat on the floor on my knees. I placed both my hands on Aunty knees and said, “Aunty you have every right to slap me if you even for a single moment felt that what we have done is unpardonable.” This time it worked and she raised her face and looked at me but still didn’t break her silence.

 

“Yes Aunty you can!!! I mean
