Chapter no 15

Jo kahunga woh karogi?

Night!!!

Dhruv was sitting on the swing seat while reading a book. Dolled up in a simple red Saree, the mangalsutra tied around her waist, her hair braided and onto her right side, she slowly walked towards him.

Dhruv continued looking at the book. A small smile played on his lips as he sensed her presence but a fear of being heartbroken and abandonment still lingered in his heart. If Tara doubts him this time, then he don't know what he will do.

Nahin aisa kuch nahin hoga. Stay positive Dhruv.

Dhruv thought in his mind.

Tara stopped and watched him, her eyes filled with various emotions. She took a deep breath and was about to leave when his voice stopped her.

Mujhse milne aayi thi, mile bina hi chali jao gi?

Dhruv asked. He closed the book with a small smile playing on his lips.

Tara came towards him with hesitant steps and looked at him in shock.

Aap...

Tara stopped unable to find words.

Ahat pehchanta hoon tumhari.

Dhruv said softly looking up at her.

Tara,s heartbeat quickened hearing him. She shut her eyes.

Betho.

Dhruv said softly patting the place besides him on the swing seat.

Tara sat besides him. A silence enveloped them. They didn't know what to speak. Dhruv has gave their relationship a chance but an awkwardness still lingered between them.

Kuch kehna nahin hai?

Dhruv asked her softly. Tara came out of her trance hearing his question. She looked at him. His soft deep brown orbs gazed into her almond ones causing her cheeks to heat up and she looked down.

Even without a single touch, he was able to make her shy with just his gaze and presence.

Kyun? Jab main hosh mein nahin tha tab toh badi batein kerti thi mujhse, vachan dia tha ke sada sath rahogi, kabhi chodh ker nahin jaogi bas ek baar uth jao Dhruv.

Dhruv told her with a soft chuckle. Tara looked at him in shock.

Per yahan toh tum mere paas aana toh door ki baat hai, door se hi dekh ke chali jati ho.

Dhruv added making a face. He stood up, now his back was facing her as Dhruv tried to control the smile that threatened to break out on his face imagining her shocked reaction.

Tara was hell shocked hearing him. Her breath hitched and she came in front of him with shaky steps.

Aa...p... aap...ko

Tara trailed off, her voice was shaky as she looked at him with wide eyes and open mouthed. Dhruv chuckled softly. Tara came out of her shocked state and looked at him with a soft smile on her face seeing him chuckling.

He stopped chuckling and looked at her with soft and love filled eyes.

Tara looked into his deep brown orbs lost. Dhruv cupped her face and she shut her eyes leaning into his touch in a state of daze. Their hearts beating in unison as she held onto his thumb lightly still in a state of daze.

Dhruv smiled softly and caressed her cheek tenderly. Tara came out of her state of daze and blushed looking down.

Main murchit hua tha Tara, parantu main sab sun sakta tha.

Dhruv said softly. Tara looked up at him. She caressed his cheek with tumbling fingers lightly.

Aur tumhe apne paas mehsoos kerne ke liye mujhe hosh mein hone ki zaroorat nahin hai. Sab suna maine, tumhari ek ek baat, Sitara ka ek ek shabdh, tumhare ansu, tumhara Rona sab mehsoos kiya.

Dhruv told her with tears lingering on the corners of his eyes.

He cupped her face wiping her tears with his hands.

Tumhara mere seene per sar rakh ke phoot phoot ker rona. Ek pal ke liye bhi mujhe na chodna sab mehsoos kiya.

Dhruv told her still continuing to wipe her tears.

Tara reached out and softly wiped the unshed tears that threatened to escape his eyes any moment. The moment her fingers brushed over his eyelashes, he closed his eyes feeling her tender touch.

He moved back wiping his tears and turned around.

Main tumhare kabil nahin hoon Tara.

Dhruv whispered, his voice barely audible and filled with defeat.

Tara,s heart shattered loudly in her ears as she heard him. She held her breath and looked at Dhruv whose back was facing her in utter shock.

She took a long stride and held him by his waist from behind, her hold firm yet gentle.

She came and stood in front of him. Cupping his cheek with tumbling fingers, she looked at him rather brokenly and hurtfully.

The broken and hurtful look in her eyes squeezed his heart rather painfully in his chest.

Ky...a? K...ya kaha?

Tara,s voice quivered unable to register his shocking words and she cupped his face with tumbling fingers.

Sahi kaha. Tumhe kisi aise ke sath hona chahiye jo tumhare kabil ho, mere sath nahin, jisse apni peeda ke aage tumhari peeda nahin dikhi, tum mujhse shama mangti gayi per humne tumhe shama kerna toh door, tumse theek se baat tak kerna mahatvapurn nahin samjha.

Dhruv whispered cupping her cheek tenderly.

Dhruv aap theek hain. Hosh mein toh hain aap...

Tara questioned him, her voice laced with depression. Her hold on his face tightened as she forced him to look into her eyes.

Sahi keh raha hoon Tara. Aisa nahin hai maine, tumhare aansu, tumhari tadap, tumhari peeda nahin dekhi, ya tumhe shama kerna nahin chaha. Per Tara main na bahot kamzor hoon. Jo kuch bhi ateet mein hua woh sab main nahin bhula saka. Woh dard, tumhari ankhon mein ghrana, woh kadwe shabd, mritiyu dand nahin nikal paa raha dimag se main...

Dhruv trailed off brokenly. His eyes reflected a raw vulnerability, pain, hurt, longing, love, fear of abandonment, all the emotions which came from the depths of his heart laid bare in front of her and her eyes welled up with heavy tears.

Dar lagta hai Tara. Bahot dar lagta hai mujhe. Kabhi kabhi sochta hoon ke meri galti kya thi....

Dhruv trailed off intensionally. He knew that his words will break her in such a way that she might never be able to be whole again.

Even in his moments of vulnerability and breakdown, he didn't wanted her to be hurt, because he loves her beyond his own pain, sufferings, greef, anything. He can't even imagine of hurting her even in his worst nightmares.

However Tara understood his unsaid words. Her heart got filled with the ever so consuming guilt that threatened to eat her up or maybe kill her from inside.

Tears rolled down her cheeks retracing the path of previously dried ones only moments ago. She cupped his cheek tenderly and kissed the back of his palm. Dhruv closed his eyes and it started raining wetting them completely to the bone in minutes.

Dhruv humne aapko bahot peeda dl hai hai, humesha peeda di hai. Aapko uss apradh ki saza di hai jo aapne kiya hi nahin, aap koi apradh ker hi nahin sakte. Woh hum hi thy jo andhe ho gaye thy. Aap bahot ache hain Dhruv. Bahot ache. Humare liye bahot ache hain aap. Aisa nahin hai ke aap humare yogya nahin hain, satya yeh hai ke hum aapke yogya nahin hain, aap bahot ache hain Dhruv, humare liye bahot ache, hum jante hain per hum kya karein, hum swarthi hain aapko jane nahin de sakte. Aap hum per gussa kijiye per humse mukh mat pheriye, hum mer jayenge Dhruv.

Tara said, her voice a fragile plea as she stared into his beautiful deep brown orbs ready to loose herself in them.

Dhruv opened his eyes and looked at her. Tara cupped his face. Her touch tender and loving, her fingers tumbled as she caressed his face. She took a step forward, towards him. The rain continued to pour on them as if trying to mirror their inner struggles.

Dhruv heard her. His heart shattered loudly in his ears seeing her shattered like this.

He cupped her face in his palms. Tara shivered feeling his palms on her face, his touch warm, loving and tender filled her heart with a known comforting warmth. She closed her eyes leaning into his touch. He pulled her closer and their foreheads touched. He looked at her with all the love his eyes could hold for her. Tara looked at him with the same emotions shinning in her eyes. She gazed into his eyes and found nothing but pure undying love and devotion he had for her.

Her eyes welled up with a fresh round of tears once again. She cupped his face, her touch possessive yet tender.

She kissed his forehead lovingly. He gripped her tighter making her gasp. She looked at him lovingly and kissed his tears away. Her soft kisses awaking a fire in him. Dhruv closed his eyes tightly at the intensity of the very new emotion he was feeling for the first time.

She kissed his eyes, then moved towards his cheek. Her warm breathe touched his cheek and she kissed his lower cheek. Her tender kiss seemed sensual at the moment. Even Tara was lost in the sensations. She felt a sense of belonging, love , acceptance and pleasure washing over her. The flashes of the past played in his mind awaking his insecurities and fears again and he pulled away from her with a jerk. Tara looked at him shocked.

Kaise maan le ke aane wale samey mein aisa kuch nahin hoga.

Dhruv raised his voice a little, his pain, fear of abandonment and insecurities reflected in his deep brown orbs causing her heart to shatter loudly in her ears. Tara composed herself and walked towards him. She cupped his face lovingly, her eyes held a promise as she spoke.

Jo kahoge woh karenge.

Jo kahunga woh karogi?

Dhruv asked her and she nodded her head in positive.

Haan.

Tara replied honestly, looking into his eyes

Vivah karogi humse? Aaj hi?

His straight forward question caught her off ground.
