Saying so she picked up her bag and marched outside in the heavy rain.... the sky poured down, making her heavy tears....

"What brings you here at this hour man??" Rishab pulled the man in to a bear hug as he saw him standing outside his door.

"I kinda don't have a place to stay tonight...." Abhi whispered scratching his head causing rishab to laugh heartily, "bhabhi ne ghar se nikal diya???"

Abhi just shook his head, his eyes telling a different story, "Hey what happened????" Rishab couldn't help but ask...

"We got divorced......"

"Whatttt????? But why????? Preeta was such a nice girl....."

Rishab was one of the friends that knew about their relationship. In fact he also attended their marriage and was a good friend of preeta too.

"I don't know man....." Abhi dug his head into his hands, eyes teary as he pulled his hair frustrated, "I don't know what came in to me.... I...... mujhe smjh ni arha tha main kiya kron.... everything happened so sudden..... I left her when she needed me the most....."

Rishab looked at him confused, and sat beside him patting his back, "mujhe pta hy insane impulsive hojata hy, but you shouldn't have divorced her abhi.... shadi mazak ni hy!!!! Has she signed the documents too??? You can stop her from doing so....... hm koi rasta nikal lengey...."

Abhi shook his head, "she won't come back...... not now....... not ever..... and I don't want her to......"

"But what you made you do this???? Just yesterday you were so excited to celebrate your anniversary...."

"She has CJD or whatever that shit is called and shes dying rishab....." he whispered, "all of a sudden my future turned black.... mujhe har jagah andhera dikh rha tha rishab, Mera dam ghutrha that..... all my dreams, my ambitions shattered down the moment I saw those reports.... I've searched the symptoms, the effects, aur mujhme itni himmat ni k usko itni bedardi se marta hoa dekhsakon.... so I did what I thought was right....... I am a coward who couldn't take the responsibility of his dying sick wife......"

He started sobbing and rishab was too shocked to react, his body became numb and he didn't know how to react.... "and you divorced her??? Knowing what she's going through, you stepped back?????" He said in a bland tone, showing nothing but disappointment.... "I'm ashamed of you abhi....... and its taking everything in me not to kick you out of my house..... tum aisa kesa krsaktey ho??? How could you do this to someone who you claimed to love???? I'm sorry but I'm glad that she left.... I'm glad that she didn't waited for you or begged you to change your mind......"

Standing at the corner of the bridge, she looked down flowing water..... the water that will soon surround her completely.

Starring at the dark night sky, her heart felt a bit lighter.... afterall she was ready to give up....

Her husband left her, her parents were ashamed of taking her back home and in this world full of people, she didn't have someone to rely on.

Will they cry when they recieve the news next morning? Will they feel bad for me? How many days will they mourn? Her mind was a mess, slipping into utter depression, her state was devastating..

The bridge was strangely empty today.... and she had all the time to gather her thoughts.

Will I regret the moment after I jump??? A part of her questioned, but the other part of her knew that eventually she's gonna die.... what difference would it make if she dies today or 8 months later???
