Prelude : Virat went for his transfer. He didn't want to go but since he revoked his transfer orders, he couldn't help but to go. So at last, in spite of Sai's innumerable requests and two back hugs, he had to come to his transfer. It had been just 6 hrs he had been in this remote and he was already missing her. The network had been shoddy here, the Whatsapp messages were taking longer than usual to respond. He couldn't stop thinking, if his condition is this much worse then, how he would pass his 7 days here. While lying on the bed and waiting for the sun to rise so that he could take over the duty, suddenly an idea struck him.
"Letter!" His brain gave a signal as he remembered how his father wrote letters for his mother while his father was in his posting area. He jumped out of the bed, hurriedly went towards the table where he could find a diary and a pen, he brought from Nagpur. Wasting no time, he started to pen a heartfelt letter for her.
Letter 1 :
Dear Sai,
It had been just a few hours since I had been away from you. How are you? I know. I know. We had been together in the early morning and that time you're fit and fine. But the moment I left the house for my duty, you had been crying bitterly, so I am in tension thinking how are you now? I hope you stopped crying. Good girl! That's like my Sai! You're strong and brave and I know you can live without me. It's just a matter of a few days and I will be with you again. Okay, leave that, you didn't tell me how you are! I hope you are doing well and had your dinner in time. Otherwise, I don't know about Aai, I'll scold you very much for not taking care of your health.
Sai, I'm sorry for making you cry again while leaving the house. What to do! In my stubbornness to leave you, I took this decision, and lo... I'm here without you. I am sorry for my past behaviour, for what I have done to you. I shouldn't have done this to you. In my rage, I crossed many limits which I should haven't. I don't know if you can forgive me for those behaviours but I hope at some point in the future, you can forgive me. Everytime I promise you I won't cross my limits, every time I cross the limit and I do deserve the punishment which I am getting now, being separated from you.
Honestly, being separated from you has no fun. I don't know why earlier, I wanted to get separated from you and took this transfer. My head sometimes, okay okay often makes some crazy decisions and makes me do some crazy things. It has been just 6 hrs I've been separated from you and already I have started missing your laughter, your smile, your fragrance, You. I'll be joining my duty next morning, till I've nothing to do other than remembering you.
Sai, since we have been friends to each other, we can share our secrets to each other.. Sai, remember how we celebrated Aai-Baba's anniversary last week! It was so fun na.. The dance we did, the letters we heard, the happiness we felt, everything, everything was so perfect that day. And all this was possible only because of you. Only you helped me to raise my voice against my father and family for my mother. To the outside world, I am an IPS officer, the ACP of Nagpur but I couldn't take a stand for my mother for all these years, only because of you, Sai! I could take a stand for my mother for the first time. I owe you this! All these years I have tried to be diplomatic in handling those situations, but you made me realise that sometimes being diplomatic ain't enough! Thank You Sai.
Okay Sai, since we are friends now, I should share a small secret with you. Do you know I started to like you from the first time I saw you? Okay.. okay.. don't be surprised. Yeah! You might be thinking how your…... okay, how this Gabbar can actually like this "aafat". But yes, I have started to like you from those Gadchiroli days but shrugged off due to... you know the reason and since you're quite younger to me and my late teacher's daughter. Your extreme love for your father, your fighting spirit, your dedication towards any work, attracted me the most. I don't know if I loved you from that time, but I am sure I liked you from those days ..Ahh those days... those were my most adorable days, because I met my mentor Kamal sir again, because I met you!!
Okay okay I won't elongate the letter anymore. Going for dinner and I hope you had your dinner too. Otherwise, no one can save you from me once I am back…. Accha sorry, I'm joking. Take care Sai, you're my most precious and important thing in my life. Take care. And...I .. love you.
Yours,
Virat Modak (Virat Sir)

Hello All. This is Anindita bringing a slightly different content for you all. It striked my mind after reading a tweet, what if Virat wrote letters for Sai when he goes for his transfer. And this came.
I'll try to update this 7 days with 7 different letters of each day. Do tell how it's guys as I'm not that much expert in letter writing skills or I'm not that much romantic. I'll try to improve with time.
Thank You For Reading
