Screams
could be heard everywhere. Earpiercing screams of the helpless kids
as the attackers caused rauckus in the orphanage. The church bell lay
broken at the foot of the steps as Rinnie and Chippu came running out
of the orphanage, holding each other's hands. Rinnie was shielding
his Chippu in his arms, making sure none of the shrapnel from the
detonations hit her, every time wincing as he, himself, was injured
in trying to protect her. Even then, not even a single word of pain
had escaped his mouth. Chippu could only watch with tears in her eyes
as she knew Rinnie wouldnt like her telling him anything when he had
made his mind. And in his mind there was only one thing running, get
Chippu to safety. He neither cared nor bothered about himself for he
believed if his Chippy was okay, he would be...
A
while later both of them found themselves in one of their most
favorite places, from where the whole valley could be seen. Rinnie
skidded to a stop and turned, "run Chippu... just run..."
"No
I won't," she sobbed as she held him tight, "I am not leaving you
and going anywhere."
"Chippu,
don't be stubborn..." Rinnie admonished, "just run. I have to be
here."
"No
please," she cried, "please don't do this. Please don't."
"Chippy,
just listen to me..." Rinnie's eyes flashed in traumatic anger, "I will
come and find you. Go near the Church gate and wait there. I will
come for you. Just go..."
"No..."
but Rinnie was in no mood to listen to her, he grasped her arm,
pushed her towards the road that led towards the Church gate and ran.
Their fingers touched each other only for a moment before Rinnie ran
away, looking back at his Chippy with tears in his eyes.
That
was the last time she had seen her childhood friend, until now...
Arnav,
completely inebrieted, slept soundly on her lap as Khushi shed tears
of happiness and longing as she carassed his face after years. She
still couldn't believe that the man she thought she hated was her
eternally angry Rinnie. How could she have not seen it? There were
so many similarities, when she came to think of it now. So many
nuances that clearly said she was with her childhood sweetheart. The
guy who taught her the real meaning of love...
One
word and she knew Rinnie had never moved on. 'Chippy I miss you' in a
drunk state told her that she still stayed in his heart. That was
enough for her. That was enough. The world smiled at her again as
Chippu was reunited with her Rinnie again. Her happiness knew no
bounds. Her life was complete, her soul was complete and all the
endless torture she had gone through seemed worth it as it had
brought her back to her Rinnie. Because, if she hadnt gone through
all that, then probably she would have never had the courage to take
on the word like she wanted, become an oceanographer, take a project
and meet NK who was the bridge between her and her long lost love.
She felt so thankful that her stepmother and her aunt treated her
that way. They had taught her the real difference between right and
wrong and courage and cowardice. And she was courageous enough to
walk in a path that was filled with so many thorns that ultimately
led her to her life. Her real life. Her Rinnie.
As
she sat there, running her fingers in his hair, she thought how her
clumsy, ever angry Rinnie had grown into such a handsome, confident
man who ruled the world with this attitude. Not that the little guy
hadnt got any. Rinnie had, but that was arrogance. The confidence and
the right attitude had morphed Rinnie into Arnav Singh Raizada, the
man who commanded respect. She felt so proud. So proud to have known
him. Even with so much pain and suffering, he had managed to carve
himself an identity that was unparalled. He was truly invincible and
she fell in love with him all over again...
His
face was so innocent, so gullible, just like a little baby as he
snoozed on in her lap. Not a line of worry. Just peaceful and calm
and she wondered, how can someone be so different. Roaring and serene
at the same time. Aggressive and calm at the same time. Rough and
gentle at the same time. Like an ocean.
Ocean...she
smiled. She didnt know who named him. For her, she was always Rinnie.
Since the time she had asked him his name and he had replied,
'Rinnie. My name is Rinnie." She had never bothered to ask him but
now that she knew who he really was, nothing but Arnav couldnt have
suited him. Her Rinnie was an ocean.
She
still clearly rememebered his reasoning of why he had named her
Chippu. She had asked when they were like ten and without beating an
eyelid, he had replied, "jabse paida hui thi, tabse mujhse
chippakke baithi thi. Not once did you go away from me..."
But
she had gone away from him, stayed away from him for such a long time
and in this time, her feelings for him had grown painfully intense.
Like her heart didn't want to accept the fact that her Rinnie wasn't
a part of her life. Subconsciously, or just her heart, she knew he
wasn't gone and here he was, back in her life with a bang and Khushi
felt as though she woke up from a very long dream to find herself
back in his arms.
She
wanted to wake him up and tell that she was his Chippu... yet
somehow, the sleeping face of Arnav stopped her from doing it. She
just sat there, gazing at him, with a smile that reached her eyes.
Only she knew for how long she sat there.
An
endless moment of blissful silence and then her phone rang...

Interesting...thanks for the PM

That was a great update! You have given us an insight into Khushi's thoughts and feelings so wonderfully with this interlude! It was such a relief to see that at last these two are getting to know each other for who they really are... I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling about that phone call. Hope to God that I am grossly wrong there. But please don't make it something really bad that distracts Khushi and makes her take the decision of NOT telling Arnav that she is CHIPPU. PLEASE! No more MU for these two, atleast now. Lots of issues are already lined up for them.. Just can't think of this happening. Waiting for the update! Hoping that Khushi reveals herself to Arnav as CHIPPUThanks for the PM! the_breeze2015-01-18 20:57:45
