CHAPTER 9 :TIME WON'T LET ME GO..
"I'M NOT SORRY THAT I MET YOU..
I'M NOT SORRY THAT YOU MADE ME QUESTION EVERYTHING
THAT IN DEATH YOU ARE THE ONE THAT MADE ME FEEL MOST LIVE
I'M NOT SORRY THAT I LOVE YOU" (Elena Gilbert)
Death was a mist with silent steps.Her eyes fell on its figure,and her heart drenched by fear did not throb any longer.Everything was fading away into an abyss.Its eyes were on her,burning like coal without any shape.Death,something she had longed for,something that she considered to be her way out of the mess,something that would give him back his freedom-suddenly felt so scary She could not feel anything around her.She wanted to wake up,twitch a muscle,but every attempt was a struggle for her,Paralyzed with fear,she felt her breath being taken away..
"DOCTR!NURSE!..Aaliya--AALIYA -please stay with me..DOCTOR!" her heart was fibrillating,her pulse falling rapidly, and the calmness of the ospital room soon turned into one mayhem of frentic actions and screaming orders...Zain staggered back and his body slipped down the wall..as he wached as they slowly lost her..slwoly she was slipping away from him..before the shrill beeping sound cut through the thick tension in the air..."Was she really going to break all her promises? Was she realy going away for forever..?...
"Mai itni door chali jaongi..ki kabhi laut na pao.."
Her head was pounding,every cell of her body screaming for oxygen.She kept fighting until she felt like her head would explode.She was walking through an atramentous tunneland she was hearing voices,echoing in the darkness,her own voice,his voice,their kitkit,his laughter,his smiles,her sister,her parents...all those people who've been a part of her life..the white light which seemed to draw nearer seemed alluring to her..she wanted to touch it and get over with the pain..remove every possible trace of her existence from the world..but wouldn't she she missing out on so many things..wouldn't she miss him...wait--her mamu,why was she hearing her mamu..what was he telling her..she was sobbing copiously--"Mamu aapne jo kaha maine wahi kiya,par main iss rishte o nibha nahi paya..Mamu mujhe aapke paas jana hai...main Zai ke ankho main ek gunegaar ke siva kuch nahi hoon..sazaa ho main uske liye..nafraat karte hai..aur main roz uss nafraat ke aag mei jal kar khaak ho jati hoon..mujhe apke paas ana hai mamu--Zain ko iss rishte se riha deni hai...""Aaliya beti-tum humesha ek bahu bani aayi ho,ab waqt aa gaya hai ki tum biwi hone ka farz bhi nibhayo..Aap beintehaa mohabbat karte hai na Zain se...toh kabhi socha hai,ki aapke jaane ke baad uska kya hoga..kya aap reh payenge uske bina,kya aap usko chodd kar humesha humesha ke liye chale ja payenge..aur agar aap usse aaj chood kar chale gaye toh usse koi bacha nahi payega...nasamajh hai,par pyaar toh woh aapse bauhat katra hai na...aap usse samjhayenge...aur talaaq jaisi mamuli cheez beintehaa mohabbat karne walo ko kabhi juda nahi kar sakta..."
He was gone and it was darkness once again for her-then she saw him,she saw Zain crying over her dead body...flashes of memories and forboding images of his life after her..She wanted to hold onto him..but she couldn't ,she was fading away..the voices seeemd louder...and that is when she heard his voice...she heard his voice call out her name..it was a mere whisper,but loud enough for her...it was like her ray of light-guiding her back to reality..
It was complete silence in the room, as they looked at the cardiac monitor expectantly with awaited breath,hoping against all hopes that her heart would restart..their means were exhausted,the only hope left was a 'miracle'.But nothing happened.
"We're extremely sorry Mr.Abdullah,we couldn't..."
"No-No -no Aaliya-Aa-ya-th0this ca-can't happen.you can't l-leave me..open your eyes..Aaliya----"
She felt his hands squeeze and suddenly the screams died down..
She fluttered her eeys open,the room was too bright.She flinched when she reopned her eyes to a room full of strangers donned in white coats..she was breathing once again,there was a buring sensation in her throat,and her body was paining like a thousand devils,everything was disoriented..she turned to her side and looked at his tired and exhausted faceHe told her that everything was alright..the doctors checked her vitals and a sigh escaped from everyone's lips..After sometime the doctors left them alone,telling him to spend sometime with her,while they proceeded to inform the rest of the family--he was still crying..she was tired and sleepy..he looked exhausted as he sat motionless,his hand still clutched in ehrs,words were not spoken-the silence said it all.She motioned him to lay down beside her on the expanse of the bed.He hesitantly took of his shoes,before slipping under the covers beside her.Their hands were intertwined,she couldn't move much,while he was scared that he'd hurt her.Zain would have just stay up to hear her heart beating..but he too was very tired and the sleep that had long eluded him finally came back...because he knew that she was there beside him..she knew that they'd have a long conversation and problems to contend after they got of the hospital..but for now they wanted to live in their little cocoon -in each others arms,he was there ,she was there -she knew that he was her anchor,her hope when darkness creeps in,and he knew that she was his life,the reason behind his bleak existence...
