You are my medicine

Same pain..

In Mehra mansion...

Abhi comes to balcony and sees pragya crying by glancing at the moon..

Abhi stands near her and says," pragya"

Pragya wipes her tears and looked at him... even in her distress she remembers his words that her tears hurt him ....she will never hurt him .

Ab: I...I...I...me ... actually I..

Seeing him stammering Infront of her for the first time she smiles...he will always talk rudely to others and sometimes in commanding tone..so she never saw him like that and he looked so cute to her eyes...

Abhi quickly says,"I am sorry"and sighs loudly in relief..

Pragya chuckles hearing his sigh...

He gets lost in her laughter...

He slowly moves near her and about to touch her cheek but stopped in the mid....

Abhi's pov;
   Control yourself man...you should distance yourself from her..

Pragya looked at his hand and then at his eyes...

Both their eyes locked...

Pr: I am sorry...

Abhi looked at her confused...

Pragya bends down and says," I made you to get worried "

Abhi suddenly says," I was not worried"

Pragya thinks about his hug and the fear she saw in his eyes ...she smiles..

Ab: let's sleep

Pragya nods and both went inside...

Few weeks later....

Pragya is standing Infront of mirror and talking to herself..

Pr: what is he thinking in his mind...it is nearly two months after our marriage but he is still ordering me...khadoos....I will keep fast tomorrow, let me see what will he do ...

Then next day pragya wakes abhi..abhi opens her eyes and frowns seeing her in red saree..

Ab: I said you not to keep fast

Pragya looks at everywhere but him

Abhi holds her arms and pulls her near him and Furiously whispers," when I am speaking look at my eyes..."

Pragya looks at him...

Ab: should I remind you pragya..there is nothing between us...we are just husband and wife for name sake..

Abhi didn't know whether those words are for making pragya understand or making his heart understand..in his attempt to distance himself from her , he is hurting her and himself..

Pragya looks at him shocked..

Ab: don't forget your place pragya...you are Mehra's bahu but not my wife...stop doing things as if you are my wife..

Pragya's eyes brimmed hearing him..

Ab: what? don't tell me that you wish to be my wife?

His question hitted pragya hard..his single question raised many questions in her mind....did she wanted to be his wife? Did she wanted to give their marriage a chance? Did she forgot her Ishu? Had she moved on in her life?

For past few weeks her heart and mind are only filled with her husband...but is she that courageous to love someone again....

Bitter memories of her past sneaked out of her eyes and rolled down her cheeks...

Her eyes reflected the same pain and hurt which he saw on her eyes when he was about to tie the mangalsutra on her neck..

A dagger entered his soul seeing her teary face and hurtful eyes...

Pragya tried to pull back her tears but she couldn't so she turned the other side and sobbed...she covered her mouth with her hand to stifle her loud sobs..

Abhi felt regret and anger over himself for hurting her badly..

Abhi was about to move near her but something within him stopped him...

He leaves from there to washroom...
