61• A battle against the odds
Mishti :)
So after two days I finally decided to tell everything to Abir.. I will take him to a calm place, where it will be me and him only.. I will make him understand in a better way.. I can't keep these things in me for so long and if he gets to know from somewhere else it will be a big problem. No matter how much you hide the truth, it will come out one day..
It was early in the morning and I came to the park for a walk.. It's sunday , so it will be better if I say everything to him today only.. I just came out of the park, a bunch of people gathered around me.. Due to flash lights of camera I understood it was media.. My heart beat became rapid.. There was no space for me to even walk..
Is it true that You are Rajashree Maheswari's grand daughter?
Is Abir Rajvansh's father responsible for your parents death ? How does it affect your relationship?
Have you known him before?
They threw so many questions at me.. I was completely clueless and shocked.. They all had surrounded me like they will engulf me at any time.. I got scared for a moment but composed myself.. "Stay in your limits! " out of nowhere bhai arrived, I took a breath in relief.. He wrapped his arms around my shoulder and the guards pushed the media away from us.. We both got inside the car, I was freaking angry.. How did this happen?
"Water! " bhai handed me a bottle of water, I engulfed it in one go..
"Bhai drop me in Rajvansh house! Please it is urgent, " I pleaded him, he was worried for me but agreed.. I am hell scared now, as I saw these things on newspaper as well.. What the hell did I do to be on newspaper? Nonsense! There is so many important things going on but these people have too much intrest in other people's personal life.. I always get happy when I see Abir on newspaper, but today it's not the same..
This news must have been reached him till now.. Bhai dropped me in Rajvansh house.. I ran towards Abir's room, ignoring everyone in the house.. Slightly pushing the door, I entered inside.. He was sitting on his sofa and his head was on the headrest.. His eyes were closed, seeing his features I felt like he still haven't read any newspaper.. He was looking calm.. I took a deep breath in relief.. First I will make him understand then if he will read the articles it won't cause any damage..
Taking slow slow steps I went near him.. But stopped just some distance away from him when I saw a newspaper on his lap.. Due to his laptop I could not notice it before, my heart beat almost dropped.. I gulped in fear.. "Abir.. " I muttered, he opened his eyelids slowly.. Seeing his dark red eyes my chest tightened in pain. Removing his legs from the table he kept it on the floor..
"I don't want to talk right now, please let me just stay here alone. "
I swear I had never heard his voice this much damaged and affected.. His voice was cracking.. He was not looking angry but depressed.. I took a step closer when he showed his palm .. "Don't! " he whispered calmly..
"Abir! Can we please let it go.. It's my past, we can't do anything.. Please don't blame-"
"I need some space! " He said dangerously, but I didn't walk away..
"Abir... Okay we will talk later, but please don't-"
He didn't even wait for me to complete and walked away taking his phone with him... I stood there silently for some seconds.. A tear dropped from my eyes.. Hearing his car sound I went to terrace, in this state of mind how the hell will he drive even? I was about to go downstairs , Aadarsh bhai came to me..
"Our Driver is with him, don't worry! " he assured me, I nodded.. But what made me shocked that he fell on his knees in front of me.. Hurriedly I sat on my knees and held his hand.. "Unknowingly my family did damage to you that I can't heal.. For us you suffered a lot, your childhood got ruined.. I can't do anything , even my apology can't fix anything.. But I am really sorry from the bottom of heart, " he apologized, my heart broke into pieces seeing him shedding tears and feeling so low.. I took him in a hug and rubbed his back..
"Please stop blaming yourself for this incident. It was an accident, no one had a control over it.. I don't know why you all are blaming yourself.. " I tried to make him understand.. Actually last night I had a talk with mom in this topic.. She elaborated this situation and it was fault from both the side.. My family was in hurry too.. Meera aunty still feels guilty about it because my parents died in that accident.. A baby lost her parents..
But it was God's plan.. Pain was written on my fate.. At this point of my life I really don't want to blame anyone.. But my destiny.
Saanvi di came and consoled bhai.. After talking with Meera aanty I went home.. Mom was sad too.. I won't let anything happens to our relationship.. I found someone who loves me unconditionally, call me selfish or whatever but I can't leave him or won't let him leave him.. After coming home I dialled Abir's number again and again.. But it was unreachable.. I was getting bad vibes only. Everyone in my family were tensed..
How could he just walk away like this?
Wait wait!
How did media know about this? As per I remember it's only my family and Meera aanty who knew this.. I tried to figure out, who could do this? Everyone in my family or in his family is happy for us.. Then who did this?
Aalisha? What if she somehow heard our conversation.. It's the only possibility came to my mind.. That dumbass girl, I won't spare her.. I called bhai and asked him to give me details about this.. He know people from media, so he will easily find out..
____________________
It's evening already.. Aadarsh bhai told me that Abir sent the driver back to his house and went alone.. His phone is not reachable too... Due to the bad weather no one couldn't even track his location.. And my doubt was right.. It's aalisha only who did this..
I was about to go inside Rajvansh house when I spotted Aalisha in garden.. My blood boiled in anger.. Plugging headphones she was listening music and vibing on it.. Going near her I threw her phone and headphones.. "How dare you? " she shouted showing me her index finger.. I twisted her hand and kept it on her back.. I held her cheek between my thumb and index finger..
"Don't shout! " I said pressing each word..
"What did I do to you that you did all this? When you know a man is into someone else, how could you even plan something evil like this? Just to spoil everything? " I shouted at her, she pushed me hard, I stumbled over my feet.. "What is this Aalisha? " Ramesh uncle shouted at her.
"Dad, didn't you see what was she doing? " she complained, I glared at her.. Before I could say anything uncle slapped her..
"I never thought that my daughter will do something like this.. You literally printed someone's personal life on the national television? Are you serious even? What is this obsession Aalisha? And you know whom did you hurt? The man who sacrificed his one year for us! Who did every possible thing that even my son can't do.. He stood by our side when we had no one.. " he said in a low tone, I felt bad for him ..
"From morning everyone is calling him, God knows where is he now! What he must be doing.. He hasn't even taken his food.. How could you be so selfish? " he raised his voice at her.. I had no time to hear them out, so I walked away leaving them alone.. Meera aunty was sitting in the hall.. "Aanty Abir didn't come yet? Where can he be now? " I asked her, she shook her head..
"I don't know! He didn't go to office too.. I don't know where he is! " she cried, I sat their silently.
Abir please come back.. We will solve everything..

Abir :)
Lying over the bonnet of my car, I was staring at nowhere.. A year back, Mishti was crying in my arms, complaining about her life, what she had gone through.. But who knew it's my family who did the damage, even though it was unintentional.. For us she got a childhood which she doesn't deserve.. How can I forgive myself after knowing all this ?
Everyday this one thing will haunt me.. I don't know how to face her.. She must be waiting for me, I don't want to make her worry, but I am not in a state to face her.. She won't understand but it hurts .. I stared at my ring for some seconds and got up.. Now it's not I and You, it's us.. I should talk with her but what will I say when I myself don't know how to process this news.. The weather was getting bad, I got up and got in my car... It's a jungle behind the airport.. I came here as nobody will come to this place.. I needed some alone time..
I was on the airport road, when I spotted Simran struggling with her luggage and trying to stop a cab.. But due to bad weather no one was stopping.. I stopped my car in front of her, she got scared at first but when I slid down the glass door she got relaxed.. "You could have called anyone in my family, " I said and opened the door.. "No one is responding to my calls, what can I do, " she replied and got inside my car..
After she shifted to Paris for her studies she has left her rent house permanently.. Instead of staying in hotels, she can stay with us, it's what Sahil said to her.. And we have no problem with it.. Sahil doesn't really make female friends like this.. He sometimes flirts with girls but with Simran his bond is genuine.. Like she is a genuine friend of her and I can feel it. But I can't say anything to Simran because I don't want to give her false hope.. What if Sahil wanted to be just friends with her ..
There was a huge traffic, I sighed in frustation.. "Can you give your phone, I want to make a call! " I said forwarding my hand.. My phone is dead from morning, my family must be worried about me.. Moreover the weather is bad too.. I dialled Mishti's number but damm due to poor network connection it was saying unreachable.. I was about to call others but I didn't find a network... So I messaged Mishti about my whereabout but the message was not sent either..
"We should take the other route, otherwise we won't be able to reach home today, there is a huge traffic, " Simran said , from the last 20 minutes we were able to move just ten metres .. After covering some 50 meters I took the left turn.. It's a jungle route and I kept my speed as slow as possible due to the weather.. Dust and leaves were making it hard for me to drive, I could not see anything properly in the dark ..

Mishti :)
It's already 9:00 PM and he didn't reach home yet.. I was not feeling good.. Aadarsh bhai, Sameer bhai and Sam and I, we four searched him everywhere but no results.. And now our car got stuck in this traffic.. Aanty was getting tensed.. Atleast for his mom he could have made a call.. The weather is worse and he is not picking my calls..
I don't want to lose him at any cost..
"Is this road safe? " I asked bhai as he took left turn, it's a forest road..
"I don't know, but we can't just stay in this traffic.. God knows where he went.. Let him come, he will get beaten by me first, " Aadarsh bhai said angrily, I and Sam stared at each other.. My head got hit on the back of the front seat as bhai applied a sudden break..
"What happened? "
"A huge tree has fallen on the road, we can't go ahead, " bhai said, we all came out of the car.. After coming this far if we will go back, then there is no point of taking this route.. So we decided to remove the tree.. But seeing the tree it felt impossible.. We all were about to go when I felt something strange..
"Should we just go and check? " I asked them, my heart was not ready to accept anything what my mind was telling.. All I was getting is negative vibes.. Bhai blinked his eyes and moved ahead.. We followed him.. Each step was giving me anxiety..
"It's bhai's car right? " Sam said showing towards her left.. Both the brothers ran towards that direction.. I was too stunned to react but it was not the time to get emotional. The car was upside down, the door and glasses were completely broken.. It was his favorite car and we had a lot of happy memories with it.. "Simran? " Sameer bhai uttered, I turned on my flash light.. She was on the passenger seat and was not in her sense..
I went to the other side and opened the door slightly.. My heart broke into pieces seeing Abir.. Glass pieces have ripped his skin, blood was oozing from his forehead.. "Abir.. " I muttered holding his palm.. He tried to open his eyes , it means he is still conscious.. "Bhai, we can't wait for the ambulance to come.. They can't come in time in this weather.. We need to take both of them to hospital immediately, Simran's pulse is getting down, " Sameer bhai said.. My mind was completely blank to respond anything..
Sameer bhai took Simran in his arms and made her lay on the car.. Abir's door was totally stucked so we had to break it.. Somehow we managed to rescue him.. Sam was sitting on the back seat with Simran on her lap.. I sat on the middle seat, they kept Abir carefully on the seat and I kept his head on my lap.. Bhai started driving.. I was crying silently , Abir opened his eyes slowly.. He was taking deep breaths.. He squeezed his eyes in pain, which broke my heart..
"What was the need to run away from house like this? Now see what you did to yourself! " I complained holding his face.. In another hand I kept a handkerchief on his forehead as blood was oozing from it.. He gave me a faint smile and brought his hand near my face and caressed my cheek.. I was at the verge of breaking down but just for him I was trying to hold myself back..
Whatcif we would have not come on that way, anything could have happened to him.. The thought of losing him gave me goosebumps over my whole body..
"Don't cry princess! I am not going to die this soon, " he whispered in a low tone then again squeezed his eyes as the wounds were giving him serious pain.. I just shed more tears.. My stomach twisted in pain..
"Yes! You will not die like this.. I will kill you in my own hand, " Aadarsh bhai shouted at him in anger, I just stared at him and Abir made me look at him again.. "Look at me! He keeps blabbering like this, " he said and chuckled, I didn't even find anything funny in his line..
"Abir? " I whispered in a low tone, but he didn't open his eyes..
"Bhai drive fast! " Sam said from my back, I gazed at Simran..
Can't I get a happy life without any worries..
"Hey! Badimaa is calling.. What will I say to her ? " Sameer bhai asked..
"Don't tell him about Abir.. Remember last time she got heart attack.. Tell her to come hospital and say Simran met with an accident so we are taking her to hospital, " Aadarsh bhai said and Sameer bhai told meera aunty the same..
We reached the hospital, Sameer bhai had already informed the doctor in call, so they had arranged everything.. They took them to operation theatre.. We four sat outside.. "What happened to Simmi? " Sahil ran towards us, my heart beat almost stopped for a moment.. I had totally forgotten about him.. He gazed into the room through the glass door, Aadarsh bhai went to him and made him sit near me..
"Don't worry, she will be fine! " I said trying to compose him, but he was not in a state.. Sameer bhai offered him a glass of water but he lost his sense.. I was right about him, it reminded him of Leher's accident.. "Sahil.. Sahil? " Sam patted his cheeks but no response.. We had to admit him too.. He got a panic attack..
I got so frustrated that even a tear didn't fall from my eyes.. One by one everyone came to hospital.. All were worried for Simran, we didn't have the courage to inform anyone about Abir .. I just told my family about it and Sekhar uncle and Geeta aunty too got to know about the accident.. We were too scared to inform her..
A nurse came out of Abir's operation theatre.. "Do anyone have B +ve blood group? We need it urgently? " she asked to us.. Mine is o +ve..
"Yes! I have.. " Aadarsh bhai informed and she took him with her..
"But as per I remember Simran have O +ve! " Meera aunty asked me, I stared at her in fear..
"Aanty woh! "
"Where is Abir? " she got up, Sameer bhai made her sit again.. "I asked where is Abir? " she again asked.. I held her hand but she threw it away.. "You all are lier.. Where is my child? " she screamed in a loud voice, I gulped my saliva in fear..
"Badima, his car met with an accident while returning back home, Simran was in the car too, " bhai explained her.. She became zoned out completely, but as I was expecting nothing happened like that.. She didn't panic more, but just got silent which scared me more..
"Aanty, he will be fine.. Don't worry.. Please stay calm, " I mumbled, she didn't say anything and just nodded..
_________________________
Eight hours has been passed.. Doctor said that both of them are out of danger but Abir still hasn't come to his sense.. Everyone had left to home except Aadarsh bhai , Sahil and Meera aunty.. "You can meet her, but please don't make noise, " Doctor said and allowed us to go inside.. Sahil was dying to see her.. Simran was not injured much, only her head and hand got injured.. She was sitting on a half-lying position..
As soon as Sahil sat beside her, she started crying holding his hand..
"I am sorry! It's only me who forced bhai to take that way.. It happened for me.. I thought the weather is bad and the traffic was huge too, I am sorry, " she was crying continuously..
"How are you feeling? " Sahil asked completely ignoring her words, she just nodded..
"You know I got so scared yesterday.. What would have I done without you? " he muttered and hugged her.. I kept starring at both of them.. So many things has been changed.. He used to call her Simran but now he is addressing her as Simmii.. Leaving them I went to Abir's chamber.. He was still unconscious..
Sitting on a table near him I gazed at him.. "Why sometimes I feel like we are not meant to be together? Everytime we come together something happens that draw us apart.. I am really tired of fighting.. I don't want to fight anymore.. "
I wish he could just respond to me and say how stupid I sounded.. But he is just too lazy to open his eyes and hear me out.. I will not talk to him when he will get his sense back..
___________________
As soon as aanty informed me about Abir, I made my way to hospital.. I came to temple to pray for him.. Standing outside his chamber, I tried to calm myself down.. Due to running continuously I could not breath properly.. After some minutes I entered inside the room, Abir was already staring at me.. I smiled at him, Meera aanty was sitting beside him .. He was lying on the bed.. I was about to go near him Aadarsh bhai came in middle..
"You will not meet him.. Let him stay in pain like this.. It's his punishment for leaving us in stress for almost 36 hours! " he complained, I stared at Abir who rolled his eyes, then I looked at bhai..
"What, let's go, " he said holding my palm, I showed him puppy eyes..
"Don't you have self control? " he asked, I nodded my head positively..
"But when it comes to him, I don't have! " I muttered slowly, both meera aanty and Sam chuckled.. Bhai rolled his eyes, Abir had a winning smile on his face.. "You guys have spoiled him completely, " saying he walked out of the room.. Sam and Meera aanty too left..
Taking small steps I went near him, my eyes became teary but he was smiling like a fool.. Bending down a little I pressed my face in his neck and hugged him in half lying position.. He kissed my neck, a shiver ran down my spine..
"You are so bad.. You know how tensed I was yesterday.. We tried to find you everywhere, I was getting so many negative thoughts and when I saw you at night like I was. I just, " I couldn't say more as my voice was cracking.. He is important to me more than anything.. I can't leave without him, God know when he will understand this..
He circled his one arm around my back and pressed my body into him.. "I am sorry, " he mumbled in my ear..
"For what? " I asked..
"That accident.. Your parents-"
I parted away from him and hit his shoulder.. "I should have left you in jungle yesterday.. Seriously! You are sorry for the mistake you didn't do but not sorry for hurting me like this? Do you even know I haven't taken a morsel of food from yesterday, " I shouted at him, he blinked his eyes like a baby.. I sighed in frustation and sat near him..
"First go and have your lunch, we will talk later, " he muttered, I shook my head in a no.. "Not now.. After sometime, ".. Something hit his mind and he got scared for a moment.. " Where is Simran? How is she? It just went out of my mind..Is she okay? " he asked in worry, I nodded positively.. "She is completely fine.. Don't worry Sahil is with him .. "
We talked for sometime or I can say it was me who was blabbering, he was just staring at me, like if he will blink his eyes I will vanish away.. I tried to make him understand that it's not his dad's fault only, but he was still feeling guilty.. I did my lunch with him.. He slept after taking the medicine..
They both were not injured much, so doctor discharged them after four days!!
