Chapter 58
Don't get confused, this pov starts from before the incident. The chapter is divided into two parts, one is morning part when everything was alright and second is the explanation of the night part when Drishti was heartbroken.
People in my life are crazy
But I love them
Just as they are
R A K S H I T
"Rise and shine sleepy head!" Drishti whispered in my ears and pulled the blanket off me, jumping on my stomach and giving rise to the feeling of throwing up due to the pressure.
"Ah, Drishti let me sleep! The whole night you kept me waking and now you are waking me up at seven in the morning?" Yesterday night ws a tough one. It felt like I needed to borrow extra ears to listen to the story line of random tv series she watched recently.
Not forgetting that rapid fire round she had me play with her.
What were we?
Five
"No Rakshit, you need to get up, It's urgent! Pleaseee" She shook me harshly by my shoulders, thus jerking the remains of the drowsiness clinging to me.
"There's nothing so urgent Drishti. Today is Saturday! And if you forgot, we are here at your dad's home. No work, no college, no nothing! So why do I have to get up" Normally she would be sleeping till 11 in the morand today, she just sat up jumping beside me at seven am. "What's the work though?"
"Romi and Vicky want to take you out with them so badly! Like a boy's day out you know" Fun fact: she was the one who was not willing to leave the room because of those two just because they would come between us and now she was sending me away with the same morons.
Going with them also wasn't something I would do when I was sober. I still remember what they did the last time we had a boys night out.
Yeah,that when they came drunk and we three slept on each other like dead bodies piled up on the bed.
"My brain is absolutely fine. Thanks for the offer but tell them I don't want to go anywhere with them. I'd rather have my head cut off" I mean- it ain't become a reality, so there were no heights of assumptions.
"Please don't deny, please please. They want to go out with their lovely friend. The one and only- Rakshit The Magnanimous!" I won't lie, something was fishy. Extremely fishy. "For the sake of friendship? You love them, right?"
Two minutes pause besides staring at each other. Not required, but loved it anyway.
"Nice try" I leaned towards her and kissing her forehead, pulled the blanket on me again "But I'm still not going anywhere with them"
My life was like- whenever I went, be it with Drishti or Romi and Vicky, I had to apologize to everyone else due to one reason or the other whose root causes were the people with me.
"Rakshit please" she kept on chanting please and pulling the blanket off me before I left the blanket, sending her flying across the bed and falling on the floor.
"LOL, is you ded?" I laughed while lying on my back and remembered that meme from where I stole this line. That was funny though, and this was not.
From a corner of the bed, the blanket was seen above a head, As it slid to one side I watched an angry Drishti looking at me.
LOL, I is ded
"You have two options honey, either you are going with them or you are paying for what you did right now" Who would be that idiot to choose option two?
LOL, I is saved
...
Going out with Romi and Vicky was a mistake for sure, but this time it turned out to be worse. We were roaming in the streets, singing songs, earning some tomatoes for the music, doing stuffs that were asking us 'why are you even doing this' It was clear that the day out was not just to kill the time but to keep me away from home.
Whenever I tried going back, Romi would divert the topic and take me to the nearest shop or park. Moreover when I decided to invite them to my birthday, Vicky ducked the topic of tomorrow and laughed at his own jokes.
There are times when you can't figure out the things happening in your surroundings, this time wasn't one of those.
It was more than obvious that some planning was being done regarding my birthday in which Drishti was playing a key role. I wanted to ask him if she knew what was tomorrow but the continued negligence of hers and attempts to send me away gave me the hint.
I felt important and I was happy this time, it would be my first birthday with her. Not only her but also a family.
Most of my birthdays were celebrated by Vicky and I, only the last time there were three of us when Natasha joined.
Walking towards my home late at the night, I smiled to myself at the thoughts of the loveliness and the people who would be gathered around me. Still I kept my hopes low, just because life messes with you when you expect too much.
Vicky and Romi had already left for an important work and asked me to walk home by myself where a huge surprise was waiting for me.
With an unsteady heart rate, I walked along the garden wall towards the main gate when a girly voice hailed me from behind. As I turned, I found Samaira dressed in a red onepiece, similar to the one Drishti and I shopped a few days ago, standing with a bunch of roses in her hand. I remembered that dress because it was the first time ever Drishti asked me to pick something of my choice was her.
"Happy Birthday Rakshit" Oh please, it isn't 12 and I haven't born yet. "Happy Birthday" she wished and forwarded the roses to me.
Not being a mannerless arrogant jerk, I took the roses from her and thanked her in a way that she wouldn't get any wrong idea from my side.
Drishti was my one and only.
"So, what have you thought?" She asked
"What do I have to think Samaira? It's already crystal clear. I am married to Drishti and I love her so much. I understand your feelings but this isn't possible. You have to forget me Samaira, I know it is never easy to forget a person you loved, but your love is one sided. It has no future. I'm sorry" the feeling of guilt kept bottling up inside me as I watched her regular glow fade away with the sadness.
"Why do I have to sacrifice my love for her?" She blurted with hatred.
"How can you even call it a sacrifice? Listen Samaira, you were, are and always will be my friend. But you aren't sacrificing anything. Drishti and I love each other. If I went with you that would be sacrifice. Also, what you feel is just an obsession. You like me, you don't love me Samaira. Try to understand" If feelings could be handled by these simple three words, the entire world would have been a different place.
"You seriously love her?" No, it was first April so I was in a joking mood. Like seriously-!
"I don't know how to explain my love but, if there is a Mrs. Shergill for me, it is my Drishti. Nobody else. It can never be anyone"
"I understand" she sighed "Its the best to leave then" she smiled, wiping away her tears, at the end, just as friend I love you"
"I love you too" I smiled at her and pulled her to a last goodbye hug.
And that's when she pushed me away.
"What happened Samaira?" Oh come on, why every crazy mood swingy woman in this world has to enter my life?
"You need to leave" Wait a minute, you crazy or what? "Drishti saw us together"
Me is ded.
