chapter 31
THE ETERNAL LOVE
Continued from part 30....After few days...Aadi was as cheerful as before and you very well know the reason.... ð Everything was perfect till now ... After a long time.. they visited Heaven and had lots of fun there... It's a time to leave.. Aadi was behaving like before with Vaani but he can't stop himself from staring her or should say admiring her... Her every act peerced his heart.. But again he reminded himself to be his friend...Vaani got some free time so she sat alone on a bench bit far from Aadi who was busy with oldsters... VAANI'S POVI decided to write my diary...I saw Aadi... and started writing...Dear diary,The most joyful one ..is he a god .. or an angel sent by god to me..? He can do anything for me.. fight with anyone for me.. Same I can do for him.. but still I don't love him but he loves me .. the most unimaginable thing .!!. I never thought someone will love me like that.. . I know my friendship is the barrier for him to reach his love.. but he never showed ... Why you're like this Aadi..? I don't know but something is hitting my heart as if I'm doing something wrong with you or me.. The feeling I can't even explain to you ... Everytime when you're with me .. A guilt take place in me... Don't know but this is the first time when I'm confused... Neither I can forget my past nor I am able to accept my present... I was going to write further when I suddenly heard a small boy shouting... I looked at the great gate.. Boy shouting - diduu...!! Come fast...I ran towards him... There was a baby girl kept at the entrance.. she was wrapped in just white cloth .. I took off my jacket and covered around her small, skinny body... I held her ... She was crying and I tried to make her calm... And in few minutes I was totally surrounded by the children who wanted to see the new guest of orphanage...In mind I cursed the parents of the baby....Aadi's PovI was with kaakas and kaakis âºï¸ .. I thought that we should leave so I went to call Vaani... She was busy with the children ..I smiled and sat on bench... Suddenly I saw a diary... Yes I know this diary .. It's Vaani's .. I always wonder that someone having a best friend doesn't need a diary... Then what' s the secret that she tells to her diary but not me...Curiosity in a person like me is common.. Sorry Vaani..!!And I turned the diary pages..... I stopped at third page where I saw one name."Kabir..."What!! is this the one Vaani hiding from me... Does Vaani love someone...???? Now my curiosity was touching sky... I had to read...Kabir.. a boy who took my heart ... When and how I never know.. I was in college when I met him first... He was caring.. loving.. and moreover my good friend .. the day he proposed was shocking... My all friends said that I should say yes to him.. so I did... Never knowing the destiny...  I still remember the day when a girl said to me that he's not a good guy and said some foul words to him and I slapped her... My first slap to anyone.. how much I loved him... His innocent face.. !!I was broke down when he said that he had been transferred to Varanasi... I know I'm different and there are only few who like me by my different nature and he was one of them ... I cannot make one boyfriend.. then second and if he left then next ... He was my first love and I could never forget him..... The only wish I asked to HIM.. is that wherever he would be.. just keep him safe and happy... It's been 7 years ... He must have forgotten me... But I don't care if he even love someone else.. I'm just his well wisher... Who wanna meet him one day before I sacrifice my life for my country... I wish ... Even 1 minute with him will be a heaven for me..... ( Unfortunately Aadi didn't red the pages which Vaani wrote recently)Each and every sentence was kinda mini heart attack . I noticed that Vaani was done with the children... So I quickly kept the diary and went in opposite direction... Vaani shouted - mr. Bak bak listen...!!I said without turning back- kaka.. is calling.. I'll be back ..And I ran inside somewhere where I could get aloneness..... I went to terrace where the day was dawning ... And orange sky was visible...Why it's happening to me..? My Vaani loves someone else... No!! not my Vaani.. she was never mine.. it was my imagination.. my mistake.. I never thought of her side...I can't forget my first love then how she could ..?Ok I decided, I've to make my Vaani happy forever.. being his best friend.. I've to help her in finding her love.... Yes I will do that but !!!!My love will be separated from me... ! No matter ..I've to do it..And a tear came out of my eyes ...I whispered to myself "I love you Vaani" "What you said ?"It was a very familiar voice.. Vaani.! I quickly wiped up my tears and turned to her.."No nothing "Vaani- oh really .. then why you cried..?Aadi- who said..?ð¤¨Vaani- your moistened eyes...! Idiot..ðAadi- oh.. I..I.. actually missing dad...This was the best lie I could say... She came near me and hugged... Her hug was giving me 1000 volt current ...No , she is not mine... She's just my friend... I have to accept that...Vaani-  Tears doesn't suit to my annoying mr. Bak bak.... And your father will never like if his "master piece" would cry for him...Her words gave relief... But why "my mr.bak bak" ..? I can't control my emotions anymore so I stood apart from her..... And saw the setting sun. She stood beside me... She's not a changed a bit for me.. I saw her brighten up face...." Can I ask you something .?" i said.." Anything " "Do you love someone..?"Shit !! Why I asked this ? I shouldn't... She'll think that I'm asking indirectly why she denied me..! Oh god.."..I .. mean.."Vaani- you never have to explain me.. I loved.. my maa..my job.. my country.. orphans... oldsters... and ...I interupted - and Kabir... VAANI'S POVI was going to say.. " my best friend"But why I was going to utter that... ð³ My tongue was not in my control ...But he interupted...I was dumbstruck listening his name from Aadi... How..? " What! .. kabir.. no.. and how you know..?"Aadi- sorry Vaani... I red your diary... Curiosity led me do that.. sorry.. I don't wanna hurt you.."" Well !! If someone else would been then I must have smashed his face.. but you're safe.. and recall.. friendship policy - no thanks , no sorry "" Why , you hid it from me ? Didn't I deserve to know..? "" not at all..! .. actually It's something I never shared to anyone.. nor Maa.." She continued ..." Well you've already red .... And know everything.. but it's nothing more than my past... So don't bother about it.. I'm happy with my life ..""Being alone...??? " He asked...I was quiet for a moment."Do you think I'm alone..?" I asked..Aadi - yeah.. why don't you find him ?He asked with immense confidence... " Well , when I became chief , I tried to find him in Varanasi... But he was gone from there... Don't know but I had lost my will to find him after that... So I didn't... And why are you asking this all..? "I asked because I can see a unknown hopes in his eyes... Aadi- I wanna find him... Give me all his details which you got...?I was totally shocked..." Are you freaking nuts..? Next level Stupid..! ð¤.. " Aadi- well you can't stop me.. chudail.. ðVaani- I will ... Pls don't do this all .. Aadi- why ..? You loved him once... And you don't want anyone else because you're still waiting for him... Am I right..?Vaani- nooooooð£ .... See Aadi... He must have changed.. must have forgotten me .. and I just wrote that I wanna meet him once.... I wanna see him that whether he's good or not.. just like a friend... Not more than that... Can't you get it Mr. Bak bak...?Aadi- yes I can get it properly.... You're in love with Kabir... ðVaani- stop it.. Aadi.. I don't love him ... Why don't you understand..?Aadi- if you don't then give me his details... Vaani- nope..! Aadi- it means.. you ...Vaani- nohh.. ð£ fine !! do whatever you want but I consider him as my friend... I'll mail you details which I got in Varanasi...Aadi- that's like my haunting Chudail..ðHe said it pulling my cheeks as hard that I shouted and started beating him.... We left after sometime... AADI'S POV...I was trying my best to hide my emotions from her and I think I'm doing well.... She should never gotta know that I'm doing it for my love and not for my friend... My happiness is in her smile... If somehow I got Kabir.. then they canbe together and Vaani would be happy.. I know it's the toughest thing for me to see Vaani with some other .. but if she loves him.. then I'll go to any extent for her....... I Love you Vaani... ððâ¥ï¸She mailed me the details... I saw the previous college in which he was studying... Maybe I could get something there....I lied Vaani that I'm going to ****state for my friend's marriage and I'll be back after 1 week..... Her face drowned listening this...But I somehow managed to convince her and said that there will be a surprise for her after I come back... She hardly accepted....Pleased to see her care for my presence ...I left for Varanasi half-hearted... literally feeling that I'm taking my life by my own...Ohh god..!!
