Hi everyone, welcome back

Upon reaching at the top of the hill, where she had lost her Haseena, Karishma fall down on her knees and started crying; silent tears turned into faints sobs which soon become louder and in no time the valley was echoing with her wailings. Opening Haseena’s picture in her mobile, she kissed it and hugging it close to her chest, she kept on crying trying helplessly to soothe her pain but nothing was working.

“I know you are repenting, I know you are in pain.....and like a good friend….i….i should forgive you…..You always said that one who forgives is always great…. I still want to practice your preaching….. But I am unable to Haseena…. I cannot forget that my Haseena, who used to understand my pain even before I could say it and used to leave no stone unturned to resolve it, changed so much that even after seeing my sleepless nights and nightmares, hearing my confessions of love and tales of guilt and desperation to catch her murderers, nothing affected her….” she was crying and talking to her Haseena’s picture sitting there folding her knees.

Flashback starts

“Pushpa ji, sorry to call you so late but…i….actually, I wanted to ask what happened to Karishma Singh….i…I mean she….. These days she even gets angry at petty issues,” Haseena asked calling to Pushpa ji after thinking thousand times.

Pushpa ji sighed deeply and added, “Even me and Lalla are unable to understand. You remember you both had went on the appreciation ceremony, last week, for those officers who returned from their undercover mission after ten years, successfully completing it….”

“Hmm!!” she responded listening to her keenly.

“She is like this from that day only….God knows what happened to her!!”

“Hmm….okay, thank you Pushpa ji….don’t worry I’ll do something,” responded softly she hang up.

Half an hour later, Karishma was restlessly walking to and fro in her room, when her phone rang, “Greetings, Madam Sir!!” “Greetings!! Karishma Singh a hit and run case had happened in front of Women’s park…..reach there, immediately,” Her voice filled with urgency. “Okay, okay madam sir” she hang up took her bike keys and zoomed away.

As she reached there she saw nothing, with confused expressions and looking here and there, she dialled Haseena, who picked it up and said, “Come inside the park, Karishma!!” and immediately hang up. “Why madam sir is calling me in the park?” mumbling to herself, she entered the park but the unexpected beautiful sight in front of her mesmerized her.

A wide smile crept up her lips as she was seeing white tent decorated with golden fairy lights in one corner of the park facing the full moon on the sky full of stars in a breezy night. Inside the tent was sitting Haseena with her serene smile, her elbow tucked comfortable on the pillow as she was waving to her from her other hand, gesturing her to come.

Peace and serenity in the atmosphere and Haseena’s special efforts for her had a sudden calming effect on her mood. Smiling fully she walked to her. “Madam Sir, is this your accident??” she asked with raised eyebrows putting her hands on her sides, pretending to be angry.

Holding her ear with one hand, making an innocent face adoring with a beautiful smile, Karishma heard her apologizing, “Sorry Karishma but I want to spend some time with my best friend and if I had said straight then surely you would have refused me…..” Karishma chuckled involuntarily at her cute gesture and before she could say anything, she was pulled by Haseena near her.

“Madam Sir, but i…” Karishma was avoiding her in the same way she had been since last week. “Ssshhh!!” she placed her fingers on her lips and forced her to placed Karishma’s head in her lap, “madam sir, what you are doing??” Without responding anything, Haseena had started caressing her head lovingly and said, “Don’t say anything!! Just soak positive energy form this ambiance!! Everything is fine!! Look at the beauty of the moon.” Karishma hummed, closed her and started enjoying the peace and comfort of Haseena’s lap and serenity of the atmosphere.

Fifteen minutes have passed and Haseena initiated the conversation, “Officer Aditya had to pretend his death for the mission but his friend could not handle the news and lost his mental balance, this is bothering you…….Karishma Baccha, what happened with officer Aditya and his friend will never happen to us…..we are from the same profession even our duty cannot separate us…..even if one of us ever have to go undercover like Aditya leaving family and friends…. then too, we will take each other in confidence because we know that our secret will be safe with the other….”
Karishma at once opened her eyes and looked at her shockingly, “Don’t be shocked….i don’t need your words to understand what’s going on in your head……” Haseena responded with slight smile, bend down kissed her forehead and added, “I know you are worried that what if just like officer Aditya I have to go under cover…..then what will happen to you……I promise you I will never keep you in dark if I ever had to do any such thing, in fact you will be the only one who will be aware of my secret……so stop worrying unnecessarily.”

A wide smile straight from the heart lingered on her lips clearly indicating that Haseena’s words had took of a large burden from her heart. “Come on madam sir, I don’t know what you are saying!!” sitting in her lap, enjoying her comforting caresses she refuted her perfect guess as expected. Haseena chuckled at her futile attempts to hide herself, shaked her head slightly at her antics. She played soft music and both started enjoying each other’s presence in silence.

Flashback ends

This memory crossed Karishma’s mind and fresh set of tears formed in her eyes, the pain she was feeling was getting beyond her ability to tolerate, “Why Haseena Why???? How can you break your promise!! No….you are not my Haseena…..you cannot be…..i had lost her in this valley……now how will I survive…..what I do of this unbearable pain you had left with me…….you broke your promise, you doubted my loyalty for two you know I can never ditch; you and my country……For me you died that day only…..i will live with my Haseena’s memories only, you are no one to me……no one…..” ended up in sheer frustration she started hitting her knuckles on the floor only.

It may seems easy to say that I forgave you but in reality it is the most difficult thing to do especially when the pain is caused by someone from whom you could never expect in your worst nightmares. Forgiveness is not possible until you forget the pain and forgetting the pain of scars on the soul is certainly not a cup of tea.

On top of that besides everything he or she did to you, your love for him or her never leave your heart instead it causes you more pain because despite of your extreme desire you cannot hate that person……as a result you are most likely to be filled with anger, frustration and a lot more negative emotions….then what is the thing that makes you forgive someone??

Karishma is going through the same pain, Does Haseena has the thing that will make Karishma forgive her???

I hope you enjoyed....
