His head was resting on the chair...and his eyes were close...
Empty wine bottles were rolling on the table placed infront of him...
'Shlok'...why are u sitting here ...its so cold na...come inside...and how many times i have told you not to drink...but u will never listen to me mr. khadoos...
Suddenly a sweet beautiful voice echoed in his ears and gathered all his attention...
He immediately turned to see the person behind him...
Astha was standing there at the door...with a smile on her face...
Shlok was having tears in his eyes on seeing her...''astha'' finally u came...he whispered...and spread his arms for her...
Astha came running to him and hugged him very tightly...as she was trying to lessen his pain...
Astha ...never leave me again...i cann't live without u...he hugged her more tightly hiding his face in her arms...
Astha slowly cupped his face... and kissed his forehead...and with a smile asked him...i will never leave you shlok...but can u assure me of the same thing ????...
Before he could say anything to her ...his attention diverted towards the sound of the broken glass due to falling of the wine bottle from the table...
The next moment ...he was sitting blank as there was no astha...
It was only his dream...
A wave of pain again captured his senses...no she will not come..never...afterall i deserve this ...to be alone in my life...why will she forgive me...why? ...why?...he hide his face in his hands ... tears were rolling down his face...
no she will never forgive me...i break her innocent heart ...rejected his love then why ...i m feeling so incomplete without her...why i m expecting her to forgive me???
Astha never contacted him after the day she left his home...the day he publically admitted that he only hated her...but with each passing day he realized his hidden deep love for her...she was the only purpose of her life...whether it was for his revenge or for his love...but for him she was his whole world...he wanted her back in his life...but he was helpless as he was the one to reject her...to give her pain...and now he was in more pain than her...wanting her badly in his life...but it was tooo late for him now...
