TeekhiMishti

@TeekhiMishti

No sanyu. Not a word about it. Meri galti thi jiski saza mujhe mili. Meri galti thi jiski saza sabko mili. I took you away from everyones life and mine as well. And look what happened. Tumhe guilty feel karne ki koi zarurat nahi hai my princess. Look now that you're back here sab thik ho jayega. That's why I bought you here.
He said as he cupped her face into both his hands as if holding a soft baby. Bringing his lips to her forehead he kissed it softly. His lips lingered on her forehead for a long time refusing to part from her before he finally spoke.

You know vardhan sir ne aaj itne saalo baad mechanics ki class li. He took niharika's name again. He'll come around sanyu. Sab thik ho jayega I promise.

Randhir. Mujhe dar lag raha hai.

Why baby ? I am right here he said as he kissed her cheeks.
Itne logon ki itni expectations hai mujhse. So many people are effected by me and my decisions. What if I am not able to fulfill their expectations? What if I just ruin their lives even more by being here? What if...

Sanyu...aisa kuch nahi hai...

Nahi randhir...mei itne saal in sabse dur rahi hun...i've been all alone...i have forgotten how to love...how to care...how to be there for people...vardhan sir is right...i am not sanyukta anymore I have become shefali...

Sanyu...shhh...ab bas...

Holding sanyu by both his hands randhir stood up still catching her close to him.

Remember our last night here? Our remedy for all tension and sadness? Randhir said with twinkling eyes as a smile worked its way across sanyuktas face.

Yaadein yaad aati hai..

batein bhul jati..

yei yadei..

kisi dilo janam ke..

chale jane ke baad ati hai

the song was softly playing filling the ambience with nostalgia as sanyukta walked into the library.

Randhir ye kya hai. Sanyu asked smiling as she reached him.

This is our place sanyu. Where we have loved, fought, smiled, cried and spent most of our time in the past 4 years. So meine socha why not spend our last night here in FITE here. Iske baad toh waise hi we are goanna leave this place.

Getting closer to her he slid his hand through her waist bringing her hands to his neck. Catching hold of her other hand in his he started swaying her around the library as they did a slow dance to whatever song played through his phone.

The whole night passed by this way with randhir and sanyukta in each others arms remnicing the good old days of engineering. Talking about all their memories. And getting ready for the future struggles. They didn't even realize when the night turned to morning. It was only when the first ray of sunlight hit their faces that they came back to their senses. Quickly they shut the phone off and escaped from the library unnoticed.

The last night sanyu smiled remembering one of the best nights of her life.

The most beautiful night randhir smiled back as he switched on the music

May I he said as he bent down before her and stretched his hand towards her.

She gave her hand into his smiling.

Lets have a replay shall we he said as he twirled her around and bought her even closer.

The whole night they spent talking about everything under the sun as they danced together happy after ages. Happy in their togetherness. All the problems and sadness could wait. This was the time that they wanted to be engulfed by the magic of this place.
