He saw her sitting with Shree, Chotu & Ayesha. She was smiling but her smile was not reaching her eyes. The spark in her eyes was missing. Her eyes showed gloominess.
He knew this mess was created by him.
Somewhere, he do understand but the thing that was bothering him was,
Can he move on?
Would he be cheating Roshni?
Does Sakshi deserve a person like him?
Taking a deep breath he moved towards his cabin. He slumped into the chair, leaned his head back, closed his eyes, and recalled her words.
"Did you ever think that we would be married one day?"
She chuckled at her own words.
She was sitting on stairs steps and making patterns on the floor with her index finger.
"No"
He replied casually.
"But it happened"
He heard her saying.
"You would have never said yes naa if the situation wouldn't be like that?"
Her index finger was moving on the floor. she was drawing some imaginary lines over and over again.
He took a glance at her.
Somewhere, he knew she wanted him to speak, to say something, to at least give her some hope, something to hold on but could he?
"Isn't it?"
She asked emphasizing her question.
"Even you agreed for the same reason"
He said looking down.
Her index finger stopped moving. She looked at him who was standing in front of her leaning his back on the wall and folding his arms.
"yeah, For The Same Reason"
She smiled sadly.
She wished she could tell him once Her Reason.
A few seconds pass and she sat there without uttering a word.
"So, now the reason due to which we both agreed is no more there"
He heard her voice.
It was a question more than a statement.
He just looked at her. Her gaze was fixed upon him.
"You would leave me then?"
He heard her crackling voice.
"You Would Leave Me Then?"
Her voice echoed in his ears.
Would he?
He thought.
Frustratingly, he opened his eyes just then he saw Sameer sitting in front of him.
"Tum? Tum kab aye?"
He asked.
"I am sitting here for five minutes lekin tum pta nhi kahan khoye hue ho that you didn't even bother to hear my voice"
Sameer replied.
"Nothing"
He replied to which Sameer looked at him keenly.
"If Roshni would be at your place, would you like her to spend her whole life suffering?
wouldn't it hurt you Arjun?"
Sameer asked him all of a sudden. He looked at him a little surprised at his sudden question.
"She would also be hurt to see you suffering. Just think about it"
Sameer left his cabin leaving a thinking Arjun behind.
