Part 13
Recap
"Good night bhai, I love you too. "I whispered as soon as he left making sure he doesn't listen.
"You love him yet you want to do drama. "Virat said coming out.
"I know you want to talk I can see it on your face. Let's talk, I am all ears to you. "He said something that I badly wanted to hear. He is so understanding. He understands me more than Danny too. I wanted to hug him and cry my heart out. I wanted to pour my heart out.
"Let's go in the balcony. "I answered.
Virat's POV.
We moved to the balcony in my room.
"Why is life so difficult? Why do people who you love so much hurt you the most. Why does it always happen? "Tears threatening to make way down her cheeks.
"Hey.. That's life you know... "She cut me half way.
"I know, Veer. I loved bhai. I loved him so much. I mean even today I love him but... Things aren't right. I know he is not at fault. It's the situation that is at fault, my heart has
already forgiven him. It's my brain that is not ready to show him that I love him. It's hella confusing, Veer. " I must say she is very strong. She pushed back the tears not letting one escape her beautiful blue eyes.
"You wanted to know me, right? Actually today, I want to talk about myself. "She took a deep breathe in and rested her head on my shoulder, yet maintaining distance.
"3 years ago, When I was 15, I had a dream. That dream haunted me the whole morning. I saw a man killing my parents. I told my mom and Danny about it. But they asked me to chuck it. That day when I went back home and saw my parents body covered with white cloth. Dead body. "My heart ached hearing her. She suffered, more than me.
"I was not allowed to stay there as police investigation was going on. I was taken to Danny's house. I didn't eat for 7 days. I cried and cried. Day and night. Everyone were helpless. So was I. Then Danny came and slapped me across my face. He explained that it is not at all an idea to stay there the way I was staying. My parents loved me and it would hurt them if I cried. They wanted me stay happy always so I decided what may come I won't shed one drop of tear. I'll always laugh and be happy. Since then I never cried. Then occasionally as Pan Chachu was the only person I was connected by blood, legally I had to stay with them. I was happy for a year with them. I was never close to Mahi Bhai but in that year, I got to know lots about him. We came close. He protected me like his own sister. He wanted to see me succeed and be happy. Then one day, aunt Jolly came and said that Mahi doesn't want me to stay in the house. I don't know why. I went to him and asked did he really say that he didn't want to stay with me. He kept mum and after a day he asked me to pack my bag. He said that there is no place for me in the house. Chachu and Chachi tried convincing him to let me stay but Nah! He was firm. He told me to stay at Danny's. Chachu and Chachi came and consoled me. They told me that they love me and within a year I will be back with them. But after what Mahi did I didn't feel like coming back. A year went in jiffy. I was too in study. Getting attached to people was the last thing I wanted. Danny understood that and made sure no one could hurt me. He was there for me. Always. He mend my broken heart. Even though so much happened, I never cried. Just for ma and pa. But today I really want to cry. I want to hug someone and shed all the pain that I carried in my heart for past 3 years. " She completed but didn't cry.
"There might be some major reason behind him doing his. Talk to him once. Talking heals things, you know. Personal experience. "I advised.
"I will because now I, myself, cannot bear not talking to him. "She smiled.
"He did so wrong yet you are forgiving him so soon. Had it been me, I would never forget him. "I said truly.
She let out a dry chuckle and said, "That's me, I can't hold grudges against anyone. I don't like it, ya. And secondly, I have been not talking to him since 2 years now. Like I do talk but not like how we talked 2 years ago. I craved for it, ya. " She smiled.
I smiled back, " My granny and grandpa died in an accident and I had to stay with my parents, then. I hated them but then I understood that, they were in Australia to earn money so that our standard of living improves. I was angry with them but Vikas Bhai made me understand that they had their own reasons. I understood. Time passed. Years flew. Dad became my coach. I was very close to him. Very close. He became my everything but a month ago, he died. Heart attack. Since a month, mom and Bhai are trying to cope things up but I am stubborn. My mind said that I am done. My heart is not ready to accept new people anymore. "When I said the last part I could see her face drop.
"But then I met you, my perception changed. My thinking changed. My opinion changed. I became the old Virat. I used to be. The one who kept talking and loving people around. "I confessed and her face lit up.
"So I think we both are sailing in the same boat, aren't we? "She said with a naughty smile.
"True. "I said.
"I want to be there for you always." She said that and scooted closer to me. I too shifted closer to her. And snaked my hand around her waist.
"I, too, don't want to lose you. Never ever. " Saying that I kissed her forehead lovingly.
We stayed there for long. Really long. None of us chose to speak. I could hear sobs. That's when I realised both of us were crying. She stood up. And so did I.
We stared in each others eyes for few minutes. We just cried and cried. I just couldn't look at her crying face that was red due to constant crying.
I pulled her closer. Snaked my arms round her waist and kept my head in the crook of her neck. She put her arms round my neck and cried in the crook of my neck. We cried for hours together.
"Bas yaar ab, you won't ever cry. I can't see you crying. "I whispered in her ears not breaking the hug. I could feel her breathe hitch. She gasped. I have an effect on her. That mere thought made me smirk. I wiped my tears and lifted Nayu to bed. I tucked her in the bed.
Our faces were inches apart. I felt like kissing her. No! Crap! I shouldn't think that. She bit her lower lip to not allow the gasp to leave her mouth. That made me lose my self control. I leaned in. Just a centimeter apart, I could see her closing her eyes. It's just not the right time. Realising that I kissed her forehead.
"You don't feel sleepy? It's almost past midnight, Nayu. "Saying that I straightened myself. I stood up. She too composed herself. God that was so tempting. I wish I hadn't stopped. But.. Forget it.
"I am an insomnia. Like I can sleep only in the arms of one I love. After my parents death and the incident that happened with Mahi, I couldn't sleep. I was very young when all this happened. So now I am scared that if I close my eyes, I would lose one more person I love. So I need someone whom I love, to make me sleep. "She confessed but pulled out her tongue when she realised how her last sentence sounded. When she pulled out her big tongue, due to proximity it touched my chin. Sending shivers down my spine. I immediately jumped besides her and sat on her bed. I took her in my arms and said, "I am there for you always & forever. "
Saying that we both drifted off to sleep.
