Akansha's Point Of View:He left for London the very next day. Now, I was left alone in the huge house. Truly, I loved him too much. Loved him so much that I let him go.As I sat in the balcony sipping my coffee I could clearly remember him. His presence was itself so enriching, so entertaining.I did not Love Anirudh. I could never love anybody except him, but I left him. I left him because I did not have a choice. Just then the door bell rung as I immediately walked up to the door to find Anirudh."Oh! Hello my dear.", He said with a smirk I knew well enough.I just nodded and let him in."Look your divorce papers are here.. sign them and send it to Neil. Or you know the consequences, I hope.", He said throwing the papers on the table as he sat on the sofa. I sighed.I was so helpless. So very helpless.I nodded and walked back to him. He handed me a pen and I signed the papers."Good girl.", He said with a wicked smirk as I felt tears welling up in my eyes.He snatched the pen from
Neil's Point Of View:"How.. How is she?", Anirudh asked the doctor as he walked out." Sir, who are you to her? ", he asked." Friend. ", came the reply." I'm her husband.. I mean was. We got divorced two weeks ago. ", I said immediately, interjecting. Not quite pleased to say the last sentence, but the truth it was nonetheless." Okay.. Nice to meet you Mr. Parker. As of her, well she is alive but I must say this that the Accident was really a bad one. If she doesn't wake up within the next five to six hours, she'll go in coma. ", saying so he walked away hastily.I stood numb... Why was this happening?!" All because of you! ", I heard Anirudh shout at me as I turned my attention towards him.That statement was enough for me to lose my temper." How?! ", I shouted back at him. Thankfully there was nobody else around or it would have be really unpleasant." Only if you hadn't been the heart breaker you are.. Only if! "" Excuse me! It's none of your business that I am a heart break
I paused and then slowly turned back. She had held my hand as she slowly opened her eyes." Don't leave, Neil. ", she said." I will not, I will never. ", I said unconsciously as I rubbed off my tears and sat beside her." I'm sorry. ", she said." For? ", I asked taken aback." Actually - ", just then Anirudh walked in." Akansha! You.. You are awake! ", he said as he walked in and sat on the other side of the bed placing a hand on Akansha's hand and looking extremely concerned." You know, I was so tensed.. ", saying so he looked at me and said sharply," I think you must leave Mr. Parker. ",I could feel the anger boil inside me.." Why in the name of God should I leave on your command?! ", I said furiously just when I felt Akansha's grip on my hand tighten.I looked at her, she was looking at Mr with pleading eyes and mouthed 'Go'.I stood up send walked out, furious. What does this Anirudh think if himself?! Is he the King Of India or something?! I think the best place for such a
After around a week, the doctor finally signed her discharge papers. My life seemed to have returned to me. After the whole nightmare, it felt like a bright sunny morning.I had told her that Rosaline didn't have the guts to kill me. Anyways it did not seem like the most logical thing to do. What's even the point of murdering me? That will fulfill no purpose of hers. Akanksha was too nice and sweet to believe her, but I knew better.I had dearly loved Rosaline once upon a time, but that time was long gone now. My heart had found a new home after what felt like ages.And that was Akanksha.But Akanksha was as skeptical as ever. And I had to constantly calm her down.So, after telling Akansha, for the millionth time that I'm not gonna die soon because even gods are scared of keeping a man as hyperactive as me in heaven, I decided to talk about something different. We were in our flat, in Akansha's room. For the first time life seemed to be perfect for us. "Okay, can't we remarry? ",
It was around nine in the night when we were at Princep Ghat. It was popular for ferries and I had decided to take Akansha on one such ride. Rosaline seemed to have realized that sooner than I had expected as she immediately chirped in."I think we should take a ferry!", She said with a fake pretentious excitement. I felt like almost killing her but drew in a sharp breath to calm myself down. Akansha looked at me with a sad smile. "Fine.", I said curtly as we boarded a private ferry. Akansha stood beside me and looked down at flowing Ganges. The moon was shining brightly. Rosaline was looking around here and there. I slowly placed my hand on Akansha's as she seemed to come out of her thoughts."You are better than I had expected.", I whispered as she looked at me with a bewildered smile with a slight blush."I know, Mr. Parker. Now stop trying to be romantic.", She said leaning close to my ear. Her scent seemed so beautiful, she seemed so pretty. I pulled her by her waist, irrespe
One year.One year had passed. The door I had locked a year ago was still locked. I was sitting on my dining table drinking coffee. It was morning.. I had to go for work. Mr. Goenka had given me the post which was once held by Akansha. Not bad at all.. Really. I had grown up in just a year, life seemed so different now. More work, more responsibilities and definitely more people to criticize me. I stood up to give myself a last glance on the mirror. Yes, you must be thinking I am Heartless, undeservant of a girl like Akansha.. I know. And believe me you are not the only one, nearly the whole world thinks that way. But I.. Well, I don't care because they didn't mean anything to me. I walked out of my flat down to my car and soon the driver begun driving towards my office. Yes, I hadn't cried the way Anirudh had when he got the news.. I hadn't showed my sadness like the others had done but at times it's better to hide your feelings from others and even yourself seems so much comf
No! It.. It couldn't be her ghost..! But then if the watchman was seeing her standing on my balcony.. Someone was ought to be there.. "What happened? ", Anirudh asked observing me. " No.. Nothing.. Nothing happened. I have work to do we'll talk about Akansha later. ", I said returning to my paperwork as Anirudh left grumbling. The whole day went by thinking about what was actually happening in my house. It was late when I reached home. I opened the house and walked in. I had got some drinks (By the way that's nothing new, it's my daily routine since one year.. Every night. After all you need something to sustain yourself in pain.) I changed into my clothes thinking hard about what Had happened because everything seemed perfect for me right now.. Like I couldn't find any ghosts going around. I sat down on my dining table with my drinks and a glass to begin with my drinking session. After around six to seven glasses of drinks I heard a sound coming from Akansha's locked come.. Thi
I immediately shut the book and stood up. I had taken sips of alcohol, and now they seemed to have an effect.I turned back to see Akansha.. Akansha Goenka standing in front of me.. Definitely alive, her hazel brown eyes twinkled as ever. She looked at me with a subtle smile, a touch of secrecy they carried.Was I dreaming? Hallucinating?"You... You.?", I babbled like an idiot. " Oh yes. ", she said coming close to me, uncomfortably close. She pulled me out of what I believed was a dream.This was not a dream." Why aren't you happy? ", she said, a voice above whisper. " Ya.. Yes.. ", I stammered, my heart racing in my chest. Suddenly I realized that her hand had gone upto my neck from behind. Her fingers carefully lining my neck, sending chills down my spine. Her never seen before avatar seemed to take my breath away from me. He firmly held me by my neck.She leaned closer. I abruptly snapped out of my daze-like state and said," How are you alive?", she leaned closer until our
