~~ Unique Relation ~~

•• Part - 18 ••

He stood there silently, after a few minutes of silence, aunty turned, maybe to check whether he again left her or not.. But not this time !

He was standing there, his eyes fixed on her, his hands crossed against his chest. She again turned her face ignoring his presence. He stepped forward and kept a hand on her shoulder from behind. She shrugged it off.

"I know you have complaints with me, then at least share them, how will I get to know About them if you won't tell me ?" Uncle requested

She still ignored him. A few tears were shining on her cheek due to the moonlight.

"I guess my decision to return was wrong. It was far better when you used to believe that I'm already dead. Anyways.. At least I got a chance to see you for the last time, at least I can die peacefully now... Take care of yourself and Anamika, now there won't be anyone to trouble you again.. And I'm sorry for giving you only tears on our last meeting"

He waited for a reply but she didn't responded in any way. With a sigh, he turned around to leave.

Sometimes, life play tricks with us. It gives us what we always wished for but in such circumstances that till we could realize how to react, the thing is gone forever. Till we have something with us, we forget it's real value, but once we lose it then we feel guilty for our deeds. There are times when with just a few efforts somethings' could be mended, it just require determination. If you want to keep something then you need to fight for it, that's what required to save a relation too. Sometimes fights are necessary to release the heat and give place for love to fill again.

Uncle took a few steps away from her but then his steps got frozen. He stood there like a statue, maybe he was wondering about what he was doing. He again turned back towards her, a quickness was visible in his next few steps when finally he turned her forcefully towards him and wrapped his arms around her.

She kept pushing him, trying hard to release herself from his grip. But we say na, man is a beast, if he knows how to cheat then he surely have the determination power to fight for his love. Uncle didn't left her this time, she kept struggling to get herself free from his hold but he was made up of cement this time. After a few minutes of struggling, and failing efforts, she finally gave up. She stood still, giving him chance to overpower her anger.

"Why you left me like that ? I married you just because I loved you ! Then why ?" She finally questioned him.

"I'll tell you everything, but first promise me one thing "

"What ?" She asked.

"If I die tomorrow then you won't remember me with hate, you won't curse me for reappearing like this "

"Shhhhhh.... I really hate you now, you are always upto leaving me alone. You never loved me truly.. I was just an option to you" and she pushed him away.

"Please promise me this, I've already suffered alot, I've lived all these years accepting your hatred towards me, I've punished myself as much I could.. If these kids wouldn't have requested me so much, if these haven't motivated me so much.. Then maybe I would have died very soon with the pain of 'hurting and cheating you'."

"Pleasee... Stop all this now !" And she wrapped her arms around his neck, ending the distance between them, making him realize that he is all she wants.

"You know what sandhya ! I always loved you only. I thought that I'll work day and night to earn enough to spend my entire old age with you peacefully, enjoying every single thing possible for a couple to do. I got so dipped in it that I forgot about the speed of time. Time is no one's wellwisher, it is the supreme power. Time is our ruler, we are just slaves.

I tried my best to fill my pockets but didn't realized that it was all costing me my relations.. It was all at a price of YOU.. I went to Australia, I did a second marriage there, I've earned fortunes.

But not a single day went when I haven't remembered you, somehow I tried to contact Anamika but you restricted that too.. I spent all i earned, upon you two in all the ways I could. But then I realized all I've done was cheating you.

That was the moment when my inner soul died, there was no one to tell me the right path, I felt so guilty and shameful that I had no option of returning back to you, neither I had that much courage to face you or contact you.... And see... As I told you, time is our ruler, this ruler punished me well enough for my deeds.. It's true that I don't deserve to stay alive"

His face was covered with tears, actually both were crying. The moment was so touchwood that I realized that even my shirt got stains of tear drops and floor was wet due to Anii's tears.

Sometimes the environment make us feel the pain of someone. He was just confessing but his every word was revealing his guilt and pain he was carrying within him.

"I won't apologize to you, that's not the thing for which I came here, I just want to spend the rest few moments of my life with you, I want to have my last breaths with you being near me."

"Nothing will happen to you, if you truly love me then you won't let this life to get snatched away from you.. You asked me for a promise na.. Now you too promise me something "

"What ?" Asked uncle

"You will put your everything to stay near me forever now and helping me in forgetting all the sufferings we have gone through all this while"

"I promise I'll take my last breath in your arms only"

"Shut up.. Nothing will happen to you.. You have to fight with it. And I'm with you now."

"I love you sandhya" his voice filled with the taste of truth.

"But your love is less then mine" aunty smiled while throwing herself in his arms.

Looking to this, Anii too hugged me tightly.
We then went downstairs because it was enough already, of emotion flowing and crying for today.

We saw Ashu and Mihir sitting closely to each other, mihir's arm was around ashu's neck and her head was on his chest.

"So where you would like to go for our honeymoon" mihir asked

Uhha uhha...

I coughed from behind.
They got shocked and arranged themselves parting away from each other.

"Areyy bhai.. Tum kab aye ? ( oo brother, when did you came ?)"

"Jab tumhari khichdi full on pak rahi thii (when you were busy cooking your porridge to it's peak).. I replied and me and Anii burst into laughter.

I observed ashu's face which she was hiding behind her palms because it was as red like a tomato.

Anii went near her and started poking her by indicating towards mihir. We then noticed uncle and aunty stepping downstairs with hands in hands. Both were having an adorable smile pasted on their lips.

It looked like we left at the right moment giving them their needed privacy. Eventually, everything happens for our own good only.

Stay tuned...
