She was inconsolable….a feeling of having being wronged in terrible way was pounding her mind. Restless, she was running out of her thoughts….her voice ceased to exist when she tried helplessly to vent out her grief. Felt like banging her head against the wall which also had beautiful portrait of them. “Why did he leave me …..God why was I out of my senses”, she seemed to scream. But of no avail…she was left all alone to sympathize and empathize with herself.
----------------------------------------------------------------
“I don’t trust you”, she gave her frank opinion. “I some or other feel you still love her only…..why?? if wouldn’t you return back to her if she said yes at this point….I am sure you would. I just don’t believe you”. He was not surprised at her reaction; this wasn’t the first time though that she had come up with such views but off late the frequency had definitely increased. He tried to control his anguish and anger. His mistake…. he had reveled to her about his past…..as a young teenager, bolstered by his friends; he had proposed a damsel in his college. Though the relation never actually took off, he too didn’t mind as even while proposing her, he was more interested in joining the ‘elite’ group of his friends who had proposed someone rather than actually being interested in the results. The result, an obvious ‘Big Zero’ failed to falter him. Though he had maintained good relationship with this person yet such thoughts never ever crossed his mind again….even forcing him to laugh off the histrionics he had come up with while proposing her. The story had a silent ending…..or this was what he thought….as it was to come back to haunt him again and again in his present tense.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
He was a happy man. His dream girl was his fiancée now. Life seemed to be rocking…”What else do I want in life”, he was never tired of asking himself. Truly Gods seemed to favor him….or were they really???
He was not a straight forward person but wasn’t even crooked. He liked playing gimmicks ….most of them unintentionally, just to satisfy his alter ego. This was one of his traits which were slowly proving to be his nemesis…. During a regular meet…he was describing his college life to her and went on to mention his ‘proposal’ incident. She was enjoying his stories till then but the moment he had finished his latest…her expressions made him realize that along with the story, he had finished the relation too. Their relation was never the same again. She had a feeling of having been betrayed. She wasn’t at fault too….after all every girl wants to be the sole occupier of her man’s heart. But unknown to her she was actually doing so….there was no room for anyone else in his heart a fact which kept on disbelieving. The crack kept on widening…. Added to this she found that he was still in contact with her…sms…emails…calls. This was something which she really could not digest. Her suspicion took over her and the relation too. Time and again he tried to prove his innocence but failed to do so….after all this wasn’t a chemical or mathematical equation which can be proved to someone. How often can a person prove his love for someone…..???? His behavior and attitude towards the relation might be few factors which can be accepted partly as metrics worth evaluation …..but here she wasn’t prepared for these too. Her engagement with him was literally in shambles. He was totally engrossed in getting back their relation to normalcy if not better, but of no avail. He k new that the end was imminent.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Equations had clearly changed. He started to realize that that there something he wanted in this life of his. A simple “I trust you” from her….a want which he started to realize that it would never materialize. They fought everyday…one of them trying to prove…satisfy…and stamp a so called fact while the other fiercely resisting it. Finally the doomsday had arrived, a day which neither of them wanted or expected to interfere in their hitherto sweet memorable life. She insisted on calling off their engagement and in a fit of rage threw the ring on him….as the engagement ring rolled out on the road disappearing somewhere….all the bitter sweet memories flashed in his mind….he simply walked toward his bike…kicked it to ignition and raised the throttle to full. And before zooming through a cloud of smoke he told her….”you will shortly get the proof you wanted” “Go to hell, seemed to be her reply.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Her cell phone blinked indicating an sms. It read…
“Alwys wntd 2 hear hw mch u trustd me.bt I faild.by da tim u gt dis sms i wud b gne.trust me.ther is no one else in my hrt but u. Luv u so much bye tc”
Although they had fought and had many bitter moments yet she could never recollect a single incident during which he had talked of leaving her. So she was startled by this message. She still cherished love in her heart. Even she was often confused and often questioned herself as to what she was up to….but failed to get any relevant answers. She wanted to be with him only. She wanted to speak to him once again. She wanted to apologize for her words which now she felt would have really shattered him. At once her heart was filled with joy…it was his call she could judge it by the ringtone…she was getting ready to shower apologies on him….the smile which was long lost was back on her lips….
He was dead. His bike had rammed a truck coming from opposite direction. Passerbies had seen him handling his cell phone while driving. The police had called the no. stored against the entry ‘Wife’ from his cell phone which wasn’t damaged in the incident to inform her about the incident. A case of death due to reckless driving while using the cell phone was registered. “These youngsters…they will never listen to us when we say no phones while driving”, someone standing there quipped.
She was inconsolable….a feeling of having being wronged in terrible way was pounding her mind. Restless, she was running out of her thoughts….her voice ceased to exist when she tried helplessly to vent out her grief. Felt like banging her head against the wall which also had beautiful portrait of them. “Why did he leave me …..God why was I out of my senses”, she seemed to scream. But of no avail…she was left all alone to sympathize and empathize with herself.
Yes …he was right. He had proved what he meant….life was never the same for her again.
