chapter 40

        Mayur's POVI was sleeping on the room next to our bedroom. I felt something anxious, like my heart is aching. So I opened the door and stood near our bedroom. She was awake and she was crying. I was seeing her from window. She suddenly smiled remembering something. Next minute, she took her mobile and played  a song. I heard this song somewhere, wait a minute, it's my voice. She has recorded it when I sang for her. I still remember she had nightmare and I consoled her... She slept listening to that song. I stood there silently watching her. I feel something is bothering her but she has restricted me for asking anything. After she got sleep, I went inside and covered her with blanket and went to sleep... .... Next day I had breakfast with her as I can't see her sad because of me. I know she cares for me but divorce,??? I told her that I will be coming early today and we will go to Lawyer's office. She nodded and I didn't say anything. My mind was saying me to stop her, to make her realize my love. But that's not possible, we can't force people to love us. They will agree but that will just be a compromise. And I want love, not compromise. So I went to office and came back home early by 4 pm. She was ready by then and we went to lawyer's office... Lawyer told us that we cannot put our case on fasttrack as only violence cases get early divorce. We will have to stay together for 6 months more to get divorce. We agreed for it and signed the divorce papers. 6 months after.... In the court..... We both reached court together at the given time. Vanya went near her lawyer and they both started talking. I went near my lawyer, he told me to consider this divorce again as he can see love in my eyes for her. But I neglected him and waited for our case to start. Judge arrived and we all bowed before him. And our case begin. Vanya's lawyer :" My client Vanya, is married to Mayur for a year and my client wants divorce. Please hand them their divorce and make them free from this relationship". My lawyer : "Yes, my lord. My client is also requesting divorce from his side. Please grant divorce."Judge: "Are you both giving mutual consent for this divorce?"#Manya : "Yes."Judge : "Sign the papers here and your divorce is finalised. As Vanya is not taking any alimony, they have no relation from now on to each other." My heart started aching listening to all this. I controlled my tears. Even I saw Vanya controlling her tears. But why is she crying now. She has got what she wanted. DIVORCE. She signed the paper first and then I signed it. WE ARE NOW OFFICIALLY DIVORCED. After signing I was not able to concentrate anything there so I went inside washroom. I went inside and closed the doors and let my tears fall. I started crying badly. I LOVED HER VERY MUCH AND  I NOW AND ALWAYS WILL LOVE HER. I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LIVE  WITHOUT HER BUT...... I don't know, how many hours I stayed crying. Literally, I stayed and cried for 1 hour. I went outside then and talked to my lawyer to distract myself. Then I straightaway went to office, I didn't even see her there. Maybe she went to home, I don't know. I will not be able to see her today. I went in my cabin and started working. I switched off my mobile. I saw the time in my clock it's 6 pm now. I decided to stay in Ashish's apartment. So I switched on my phone to call and inform him. Instead I had 20+ missed calls from Reena. Reena has never once called me but we 4 have a group and used to talk a lot. She is like my friend now and my friend(Ashish's) would be fiance. So I thought it would be urgent. So I called back her and she started crying. I got worried. Mayur : "Reena, relax. What happened, first stop crying and tell me what happened. Where are you now? Are you in danger?"Reena : "Mayur, both your love is in danger. Please save your relation". Mayur : "What are you talking, Reena. We are divorced now. And she had never loved me, it's me all the time who loved her and will always love her. You stop crying because of us. Relax and where are you now? "Reena : "Mayur, Vanya loves you. She loves you very much. She has divorced you for a strong reason and I don't know the reason. I feel she is in danger". Mayur : "You are making fun of me right. Please don't make this type of jokes."Reena : "No Mayur, she only told me that she loves you very much. She is going to Kerala now. After your divorce, she called me and told me to book the ticket. I asked her the reason but she told me to not interfere. I thought she wants to move on, so she is going, so I booked her ticket.  She came here and unknowingly while crying she confessed to me. Please come fast here. "Mayur : "Where are you now? Where is Vanya now?"Reena : "We are in the railway station. She is sitting in the train and her train will depart in 15 minutes. I have called you so many times but.".. Mayur : "Wait, I am coming.".. I disconnected the call and ran towards my car. I drove with full speed towards railway station. It's half an hour drive from my office so I have to reach fast. She loves me but then why she wanted divorce? Is someone blackmailing her. Why she is going to Kerala. I should have inquired her and should have asked the reason for divorce. But I didn't asked anything, shit! I saw her getting hurt by my behavior. I noticed it but never confronted her. I would have asked her reason maybe she would have told me the reason for divorce... Then I would tried to solve it..... I reached the station and called Reena to inquire about the platform. But she didn't receive my calls. So I started searching them from the bridge. ... I found her, she is in platform 2. But where is the train in that platform? My heart started beating fast and I was very anxious. I ran towards Reena. I reached towards her... Mayur : "Reena, where is Vanya and where is the train.".. Reena :" Mayur, you are late. Train has departed.... She went..... She went to Kerala... She was crying'... She started crying saying this and I lost her..... I started crying. Everyone was looking towards us and Ashish came towards me and hugged me. Maybe Reena called him and informed him. Ashish : "I have a plan to unite both of you". Mayur : "Say fast".... Ashish: ...... ........................................ ................. Till then keep reading. KEEP SMILING AND BE HAPPY😊
