Love me for a Reason (2)

Read first part here

Ahlo, Brindha here, what happened? How much time you want me to wait here like this?

……

What? You could have told this earlier right?..cha…

……

Atleast come for half an hour yaar? Please… I need someone…

……

No, no I can’t wait till such time…I’ll also leave in that case … I wanted to discuss so many things with you……ok, my bad luck…I’ll talk to you later



Ok, bye!

(Sigh… she also ditched me…I also have to leave, no other go… but where to go? )

(Brindha mobile shivered with “Basker Calling” statement!)

Ah ahlo…

Ah brindha, basker here, is your lunch time over?

Ah, yes it’s over… now, just now I completed my lunch…

Good, can you apply for a half day leave please, I need to discuss something with you..

Leave-ah? Hmm… I don’t know… actually…

Please… it’s very important…

Hmm..Okay… I’ll ask for it…

Thanks, you let me know, we will meet somewhere outside… you decide the location, I’ll be there, ok!

Ah ok…

Thanks, bye!

(Oh god, what should I do now? I feel very guilty with these lies to basker! Hmm... ok, no other go, after some time, I’ll call basker and tell him that my leave got approved and will ask him to come here itself… )

(1 hour later...)

Hello brindha, did I make you wait for long? Sorry, traffic that’s’ why..

It’s ok; I also came just now…

Ok, first do you like to have something? That shop sells good butter scotch ice cream, come, let’s go there and have it first, then we can talk…

No, no… let us sit here please… you said; you wanted to discuss something..!?

Yes brindha… I don’t know how to start but…I… I actually wanted to tell it much earlier but… somehow didn’t have the courage till now… now I can’t go back without discussing it…

……

Brindha you might feel shocked to hear this… actually … I… I was in love… love with another girl before marriage..

(What… you too… )

Yes brindha, it’s true that I was in love with her…but only after some time we felt that our love wouldn’t end in marriage for apparent reasons… it’s true that we would be happy after our marriage… but only we would be happy after marriage is the bitter truth…

……

Brindha… during love our heart rules, but only when we think about marriage, our brain starts functioning…we talked and discussed a lot… finally we decided to hand over our life to our parents wish…

How is it possible basker? You love one and marry another?

Brindha what you ask is perfectly right… but tell me what’s the use of thinking on something again & again, when we are sure it’s not going to happen? Our only mistake was not to think about marriage when we started to love each other… the same weakness which everybody has been there in us too…we didn’t have guts to think or control those soothing feelings.. But we didn’t want to do another mistake again…

Sorry, I can’t accept your justification… think of that girl, how can she forget you and marry someone else?

Brindha, you are thinking emotionally but we decided practically… we didn’t want to waste our life thinking of our love failure…this life is precious brindha, there is so much to adore, look into & explore… it is something beyond words brindha… we simply didn’t want to waste our entire life thinking of just one false relation!

Ah… tell me one thing Basker, can you say with confidence that not even once after marriage either that girl or you wouldn’t be thinking about each other…?

Definitely it would haunt us, I don’t disagree…but we are sure that it would become a distant memory by time… what we have to make sure is those memories doesn’t anyway harm my present life… time heals brindha…time heals…

But basker, do you think it is easy for that girl to confess the same to her husband like you did today?

brindha, everybody makes mistakes, but what is important is that we have to learn from those mistakes, after learning, we have to make sure not to repeat those mistakes again… that’s enough for me, more than confessing our mistakes to our mother or father, husband to his wife or wife to her husband…what’s the necessity tell me…?

Isn’t it a betrayal she is committing against her husband?

For me it’s not so… thinking about past and destroying present life is betrayal for me… thinking about her always after marrying you is betrayal for me…not living with whole heartedly is betrayal for me… hiding my past life with you isn’t wrong as long my future life with you is in sync…

But why did you then confess to me?

Brindha, frankly I started liking you a lot… you appear to be a more practical girl for me… I had faith that you would understand me, if I confess it. But again it isn’t necessary for her to confess the same to her husband, she can say after so many years, or even she can hide it all along, if you ask me there is absolutely no necessary to confess it all, all now required from her is to forget the past & give unconditional love to her husband from now on..

So you think hiding the past and living new life is possible without hitch… right?

Brindha, I’m not asking to hide the past, just forget the past. This life teaches us a lot, so be this one. Rather than living guilty life assuming it as sin or betrayal, it is wise to live a happy life now so that people around you are also happy with you… so brindha that’s it, I am relieved now, I’ve told what I wanted to say… now you have to talk… will you forgive me brindha? Trust me, I will be a good husband to you…

Basker, I don’t know what to say… I actually…

You don’t have to say anything, just forgive me, that’s enough… if you want we can stay here a bit, otherwise we can leave.. I wont force you… take you own time brindha!

(few quite moments passed…)

Basker, if I ask you something, will you mind?

tell me, brindha, don’t hesitate please…

Basker, I need butter scotch ice cream, that too only in cone…

Hahaha..Brindha..i love you brindha… just hang on.. I’ll back in a moment…

(at home)

Brindha, what are you still thinking? Don’t you have to go to office tomorrow? It’s already late… sleep da…

No I don’t feel sleepy…basker, can you sing a song for me… I know you can sing well!

ok, I’ll sing a song for you… this is my personal favorite from boyzone…dedicated specially for my darling…

Smile an ever lasting smile
A smile can bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you gone
'Cos that would bring a tear to me
This world has lost its glory
Let's start a brand new story
Now my love
You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say
It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

Talk in ever lasting words
And dedicate them all to me
And I will give you all my life
I'm hear if you should call to me
You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away
It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

This world has lost its glory
Let's start a brand new story
Now my love
You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say
It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away
It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away
It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

Ahlo, Vaishnavi Madam! Basker here, sorry to disturb you at this juncture!

……

Ah, yeah…she is fine…sleeping peacefully..

……

oh no, only I should thank you…when I came to you to find out the reason behind brindha’s distress, you trusted me and shared all her past life…I didn’t find anything wrong in her, all I had to do is to create an imaginary girlfriend for her to believe me…

……

I’ll tell you that story later; it’s something which I had to do to make her come out of her cage…I just called you to say thanks for your help and update you that she is fine now in her husband’s love castle…

……

Oh I didn’t do anything big, it’s my duty… ok thanks bye…
