Arohi leaned on his shoulders ....and placed her head on his shoulders ...A quick tear ran down her cheeks wetting his shirt ......

Neil felt his shirt dampening in her tears and quickly stood up jerking her ....shocking her ...

Arohi was stunned and speechless seeing him move like that .......her eyes were tearing apart and her moth was wide open due to shock....

Neil... Arohi called out in her broken and shivering voice.......

Neil took a step back from her...

She saw his feet move farer from her and her heart pained .....

Arohi immediately stood up ....staring at him all the way....

Neil, We can work this out!!!! she kept her hands on his shoulders sounding so desperate to hold him in her life...

Neil shrugged her hands off making her go vback few steps to steady herself...

We are done Arohi..... !!!! neil said in one go in a shrewd tone and turned his back and started walking away from her......

Arohi had lost it at this moment... She had tried all things to saave this one relationship she had in her life...but now she had failed ....No, Neil had failed her....

She saw him walk away from her as if their relationship meant nothing...she meant nothing....

Atleast have he guts to say this neil Arohi yelled making neil stop from moving any further...

Arohi continued yelling Why are you breaking up with me??? Neil stood there without facing her , is eyes finally shed those tears that he had held up all this time....

He had never seen Arohi this vulnerable, but now hearing her voice shriek in fear and shock he felt a uneasiness in his mind...

He wanted to turn and hug her tight and take her in his warmth, but he knew what had to be done......

He wiped his tears and walked away from her .....

While Arohi saw him quietly....

In that silence, Her heart broke tearing her apart with every shred it broke and scarring her for life.....

****************************************

This was 5 Years ago.....

Now Arohi had gone away from her family and was a successful surgeon in a hospital..

And by this time her heart had hardened like a rock...

Breakups without a closure or hard to move on from...

Because you go on vicious circle and try hard to find a reason why the things happened happened with you and end blaming yourself....

But Arohi being the strong women she is, fought with her feelings and focused more on her career....

She sighed as she herself in the mirror....

Today was the litmus test for her ... to find out how strong she was....

For she was going to face Neil after all these years...

It should not bother her, now that it has five years but somewhere in her heart she was afraid her heart will melt once she sees him...

Arohi sighed again...

Her phone rang... It was cab driver that she had booked...

She answered and came down from her hotel and got into the cab....

Whenever she achieved something...Be it a successful surgery, or a good post in her hospital, or her PHD papers getting acknowledge...she always wondered what was neil upto... and she wanted to show off in his face how she was better off without him...and hurt him ....she had held it for a long time now.....Now it was her turn to make him cry and stand helpless just as he did few years ago....

Although she would never accept, Her heart raced while the car took her to Birla hospital...

She reached there....She was invited as Chief Guest there....and she greeted both the Birlas and Goenkas coldly....

But something was off...

Mr. Neil Birla was not there ...to receive her.. to see how much she has achieved...to be jealous and to be hurt...

She soon became busy and gave her speech and finally the event got over...

All during the night her eyes searched Neil, It pained her .....

Since the event was over she packed her bags...and just then she heard a familiar voice calling her out in a broken tone.... Arohi the voice called out....

Arohi gently turned and saw Abhimanyu all in tears.....

I need to talk to you Abhi said...

I am sorry I have no relations with you... she said without even looking at him and started to walk off....

Please.... Abhi cried and held her hands from back.....

Arohi quickly took her hand from and started walking again.....

Its about Neil..... Abhi said.....and Arohi stopped at the moment....

Arohi came to his face and smirked I Dont care who is it about??? and who is this Neil??? I dont remember.... Uhhhhhhhh??? Oh.... your brother....!!!! Sorry I am not interested... she patted abhi's shoulder sarcastically and started walking again....

Abhi gulped in his guilt.....and wiped his tears....

He knew he had to stop her ...

He broke up because of me.... I thought you will use neil and emotionally black mailed him that I would unalive myself so he broke up....

Arohi did not want to lose herself at this pont...she tightened and pressed her fingers against her palm and walked again and faced Abhi.....So?? What are you trying to say?? He loved?? but did not take a stand for me??

Arohi wanted to yell at him more but she did not wanted to show how vulnerable she still is when it comes to Neil.....and walked away controlling her emotions....

I love you Chipkali..... Neil said....and Arohi stopped...and froze at her place....

She always thought Neil to have moved on and here she was hearing the exact same words she did not want to hear....

She did not turn back... as sh was afraid she might give in...Not this time Neil Birla she said to herself...

Neil continued.....

I should have never broken up with you...After you went I realised The very reason I breathe is you.....

I broke up because my Brother and family emotionally blackmailed me, because they thought you would use me....Agar tum hoti toh...You would have fought them become the villain , but I did not have the courage to fight.

Leave that I could not say the reason for our break up even when we met...Thats how gullible and coward I am ....I am sorry....

I know for the damage I have done sorry is not enough, But I hope you move on.....

Arohi had had enough she turned yelling at him... What do you think Mr. Neil Birla...

Her eyes widened in shock.....Neil was not there.... Abhi had paused his recording that he had played.....

Arohi stood there baffled .......and saw Abhi with all her questions wildly running in her head....

Abhi choked on his words.... He is gone...Arohi He said and cried....

A quick tear rolled over unintentionally down her cheeks.... Gone?? Where?? To attend some patient??? Where ??? With every question her heart panted for breaths... as it was hinting one obvious painful thing ... Ahhh??? Arohi asked not able speak...

Abhi noded wiping his tears...and took his phone...and played some video and made her held her phone...

I can never forgive myself for what I did to Arohi... and I cannot imagine a life without her and so I am ending it....I am recording this video only to say.....I am unaliving myself and I have one wish...Please dont burn my corpse....

Yeh shirt dekh rahe ho....It has tears of my Aaru....my chipkali...she cried on my shoulders yesterday night..and I dont want her tears to burn...You guys can bury me...I want to carry her tears with my grave till time ends so ..... Neil choked...

Sorry Chipkali...Maybe in another life I will be couragous like you .....and be brave and stand up...Not this broken..... The video ended....

Arohi fell down on the floor ..all her hatred her angst had vanished in thin air....The thoughts had faded.....

Abhi lifted her up and asked her to follow and she she did so like a corpse...

He took her to the car and drove her somewhere...all this while Arohi's brain contemplated ..

Is this a prank Neil decided to play to get her back?? How can he???

Before she could contemplate Abhi stopeed the car...

Arohi got out and found out it was graveyard...

She gulped her saliva in horror and fear...

Abhi walked in front and Arohi followed her...

With ever step her heart pained and made it more difficult for her to breathe...

Abhi stopped ..

Arohi moved a little upfront and saw a Stone...

Neil Birla

Broken in Love

It read

Arohi broke down in tears
