Part 3
Just as the sweet words left my mouthā¦ I felt her already rigid body stiffen as it lay within my grasp. Staring into her eyes, I felt the ends of my lips curve amusinglyā¦ as my gaze fixated on herā¦ judging her reactionā¦ Her eyesā¦ they are much like the oceanā¦ pureā¦ and reflectiveā¦ They had been what had drawn me immediatelyā¦ At the moment, I could sense the chaos of confusion, surprise andā¦ well more confusionā¦ in them. They told her entire storyā¦ Pulling my head back and utterly absorbed in her presence, I purposely felt my grip around her tightenā¦ the smile on my face deepened in a barely noticeable wayā¦ a faint reflection of the inward, strange delight I felt out of all of thisā¦ Her eyes flooded with a tinge of apprehension nowā¦ like a deer caught in the headlights ā¦ A moment had passedā¦ or perhaps twoā¦ Heck, I don't know! A loose sympathy washed over me as she sat so vulnerably upon my lapā¦ Letting out an unnoticed sigh, I raised from my seated position, whilst taking my still-too-stunned-to-react wifeā¦ and placing her gently on the bedā¦ Hey, I'm a nice guyā¦ * wink * I don't know what it is manā¦ ye kambaqt muskurahat honton pe jaise chipki hui hai! (darn smile is as though plastered to my face!)ā¦ But then again, it was amusingā¦ Maybe I'll leave her to let the fact sink inā¦ So thinking, I turned to walk awayā¦ only to be stopped mid-stepā¦ Slightly surprised, I turned my attention leisurely towards the petite hand encasing my own. Lifting my gazeā¦ my eyes found a sight I had never before encountered. A few dark strands of hair hovered precariously over the side of her faceā¦ occasionally caressing the visibly soft skin of her cheekā¦ her tender lips were barely partedā¦ while the eyesā¦ they radiated with extreme innocenceā¦ I felt something slowly warm up inside as her striking features registered in vivid detailā¦ momentarily unbalancing my composureā¦ again. Stuffing the feeling down my chest, I let it pass with easeā¦ After a moment of excruciating silence, she broke the deafening tuneā¦ "Kal raatā¦ yeā¦ ye shaā¦ shaadi kaise hui?" (Last nightā¦ thisā¦ this marā¦ marriage, how did it happen?)ā¦ Now fully turning my body, towering it over herā¦ I sensed another pang of sympathyā¦ Did she really not recall?ā¦ Interestingā¦ The sympathy dissipated as her eyebrows twitched in a fleeting irritancy? Gosh woman, attitude! And just as quicklyā¦ she became the guiltless lambā¦ "Pleaseā¦" I looked at her devilish beautyā¦ her razor eyes pleading for a revelationā¦ "Kal raatā¦" I began amusedā¦ What a puzzle, the thought played in my mind as I tried putting the pieces togetherā¦ Gosh, the expression on her faceā¦ priceless!
A mischievous grin etched into my face as I released myself from her feeble grasp and turned leisurely towards the sofaā¦ lying my body loosely across it. Securing my arms underneath my head, I looked to the ceiling for a minuteā¦ Before turning my attention back towards herā¦ With much effort, I attempted to suppress the chuckle threatening to instill in the silenceā¦ She looked perplexedā¦ as though in anticipation of the world's endā¦ Stumbling slightly, she raised from her positionā¦ faintly aware of the stony veil struggling on her right shoulderā¦ I don't know whyā¦ but it's like she's glued my eyesā¦ the humorous sensation long goneā¦ replaced with a curious appealā¦ Slowly, I bent up from my reclined positionā¦ lifting my right leg in a triangular positionā¦ whilst casually laying my arm over the kneeā¦ as she sat firmly next to meā¦ My eyes penetrated herā¦ and my eyebrow cocked in response to her unexpected shameā¦ as her eyes fellā¦ Impishly, I lifted a finger to her chinā¦ matching her eyesā¦ "Kal raatā¦" (Last night)ā¦ I beganā¦ my face slowly having inched close to hersā¦ so closeā¦ so that only her faintly trembling lips caught my eyesā¦ as my own brushed fleetingly upon the softness of her cheekā¦
(Flashback)
Wohe Ajnabeeā¦
Aisa koi mujhko mil gaya hai saathiyaā¦
A trail of curses silently escaped my mouth as I approached the far end of the crowded compartmentā¦ my eyes precariously catching the shadowy figures gyrating to the catchy beat flowing in sync with the shaded lightsā¦
Adiā¦ mujhe kuch nahin sun naā¦ you got it? Aur agar tune na kahi, toh tu mera.. (Adiā¦ I don't want to hear anythingā¦ you got it? And if you say no, then you'll seeā¦). I love herā¦ my momā¦ the backbone of my lifeā¦ The one person I cannot refuseā¦ She reigns in my worldā¦ I was lividā¦ my thoughts voidā¦ except for the single line that she almost finishedā¦ How could she? And that too, for something like marriage? My face puckered as the icy liquid burned against my throatā¦ Annoyed, I waved a hand to an awaiting waiterā¦ Taking the filled glass between my fingers, I turned my seatā¦ my eyes indifferently glancing at the crowd engrossed in the atmosphereā¦ My attention waned as I looked into nothingnessā¦ the bitter liquid occasionally burning my throat, as I took unconscious sips of the contents in handā¦ At some point, a cover penetrated through my empty thoughtsā¦ slowly, I ventured back into reality, as the veil fell leisurely across my faceā¦ My features unmovedā¦ yet caught up in the recently discovered scentā¦ As the momentary obtrusion ceased to block my viewā¦ I continued my aimless observationā¦ As though in a paralysisā¦ With the passing secondsā¦ the immobility gave wayā¦ and I was back in my positionā¦ back with the thoughtsā¦ the dilemmaā¦ The unexpected vibration of the gadget inside my pocket shook my thoughtsā¦ Setting aside the insignificant glass holding the liquidā¦ I held the gadget in handā¦ the miniature screen screamed outā¦ "MOM"ā¦ Normally, I would answer without a moment's hesitationā¦ but my mind was too fogged at the momentā¦ and soon the vibrating gave wayā¦ A fleeting guilt impinged my thoughts for a moment as I contemplated calling her backā¦ but the idea slipped as I looked upon the oblivious crowd once more. Shoving the gadget into the pocket of my nightly jacket again, my fingers fumbled for the touch of the cool classā¦
After a few seconds of groping, irritancy crept withinā¦ and I turned my headā¦ to see my drink in the hands of anotherā¦ A group of slender, feminine fingers encased the glass, bringing it towards the oblivious owner's lipsā¦ Her puckered face made out the presence of the liquid in her mouthā¦ as she attempted to spit out the contentsā¦ whilst bringing down the glass hard on the counter. I watched now with curiosity, the momentary anger at having my drink stolen having dissipatedā¦ Brushing her hand across her face, which had been hidden by thick waves of hair, now gave way to allow a side-view of a young woman. "Ye paani hai?!" (Is this water?!), she fumed to no one in particularā¦ As she turned to the side, my eyes beheldā¦ hers... Immediately, I could catch the distant look in themā¦ a mixture of pain and something elseā¦ The lady fumbled around to take a seatā¦ her composure wanedā¦ but it seemed not merely the affect of any drugā¦ but the emotions that were spilling out of her eyesā¦ Tiredly, she pulled her body into the tall chair next to meā¦ A distant curiosity welled within meā¦ but I was still agitatedā¦ and turned to face the oblivious crowd once more.
Staring at nothing in particularā¦ I stirred feeling a tingle across the skin of my neckā¦ Tilting my head slightlyā¦ My eyes fixated on the movement of strangely familiar lipsā¦ "Mujhse shaadi karogeā¦" (Will you marry meā¦).
Hey guys, just for clarificationā¦ the flashback isn't over! And I'm sorry for the pathetic part... it was kinda hard to write this one... and it didn't exactly turn out as I hoped... sorry It was done rather in a bit of a rushš
