She
tried Rauhl’s number hundredth time, but
it was still switched off. He was missing. Maybe he needed some time to spend
alone. He wanted to match his life with reality. However, this behavior of his
was making Shivi restless. She was
feeling suffocated. She just wanted to bring Rahul back somehow and hug him to infinity.
“Should I
call his parents?” She thought. And when these thoughts were juggling in her
head, her cell phone started ringing.
She somehow pulled out the cell phone out of her bag. It was ‘Rahul Calling’. As soon as she tried to pick the call, it got disconnected. She took too long to pull out the phone out of her Gucci.
She took
breath of relief. All her pain vanished on seeing Rahul calling her. She was happy.
Her eyes squeezed out few tears in happiness. She called back. She was ready to
shower her love and care to Rahul.
He
picked.
“Where the hell were you? I was so tensed, can’t you see. Someone really care for you here. I missed you Rahul. Come here right now. I will hug you and won’t let you go,” She completed and burst into tears.
“Mam, Is
there any man at your house we can talk to,” An unknown famine voice asked. She
was looking serious.
“No, I
live alone. You can tell me what happened?”
“Mam, Last night there was some serious Emergency near Jaipur road . You
have to come at Lifeline Hospital as soon as possible.”
Shivi choked. She almost fainted, facing the truth. Tears flew out of her eyes profusely. She fell down on the corner of her PG room and started weeping silently, crushing her hand in her mouth. She didn’t want someone to hear her weep. She wanted to drain out everything she had in her heart.

After
weeping for few moments, she ran out of her PG barefoot and ran to the
hospital. Rickshaw wala took more than half an hour to make her reach the
destination.
“What happened to Rahul,” She asked at reception.
In no
time, a nurse came into the sight and started narrating the matter.
“There was a serious accident at Jaipur road. Patient tried to kill himself with a blade first. His wrist was in miserable condition. When he still survived, he again attempted to kill himself with iron rod. We found three iron rods in patient’s chest. He was still alive. He ran out of his flat and started running on the road and…” She paused shedding a tear.

“And what…..?” Shivi did still not believe what happened to him.
“A heavy carriage truck hit him and his body was grinded underneath.”
Nurse completed. She had tears in her eyes. It wasn’t an easy death.
“Can I see him?” Shivi pleaded, unbelieving what she had just listened to. She was in shock. She had no tears to pour out. She was numb. She was pale.

“Do you
really want to see?” asked Nurse, cleaning her face.
“Hmm…”
Shivi whispered. Her eyes weren’t
blinking. She was in grief.
Nurse showed her the way to morgue. Shivi , looked at him. Half of his body was crushed and rest was flooded with blood patches. She looked at his wrist. It was insane. How someone could hurt himself so badly. Every cut was the story of Rahul’s agony; His failure, his loneliness. They were big. He seriously wanted to kill himself in a single go.
Shivi cried for almost three hours in the morgue hugging his half-crushed body. She wanted him to hug her back. However, he never did.She called her parents after coming out of the hospital. She was quiet. Three hours made her a dead-still-living-Shivi. She came back to her PG, almost dead. Her eyes weren’t blinking, her hair were going nowhere. She had nothing left in her mind as well as her heart.
Without you, It actually hurts to stay alive,
Miserable tears of blood, I want to dive in,

Miserable tears of blood, I want to dive in,
Make a little space in your arms,
I am coming,
Life doesn’t worth, It’s your embrace what warms
I am coming,
Life doesn’t worth, It’s your embrace what warms
I want god to take away my breath,
I want to get rid of this Every moment’s death.
I want to get rid of this Every moment’s death.
No one can see, No one can feel my wound,
Unbearably, No Love lost, No Love Found. . !!
Unbearably, No Love lost, No Love Found. . !!
There are
some moments in your life when you just wish it to be a nightmare and not a
reality. She was going through one such moments of her life. She reached her PG
and dropped herself on the bed, and tried to accept the cruel Reality she had
just seen. What was it? Was it real or just a nightmare which would end as soon
as she opens her eyes? She had no clue.
As she struggled to get into her senses, a knock on the door helped getting her back to reality. She drew herself towards the door and secretly wished it was Rahul as he’s always there but she knew, he had already travelled into another dimension. She opened the door to find a courier man standing with a pale green envelope in his hand. She signed the receiver’s document and collected the parcel.
She banged the door behind and walked inside her room. She looked at the parcel and her crying eyes sparkled on seeing the sender’s name while her lips curved into a smile.

“To my dearest Shivi,
Happy Birthday…
Yours, Rahul”
Suddenly a thought triggered her mind. Today was her birthday. She forgot the day she was sent to this earth as a beautiful angel but Rahul remembered it and managed to make her smile even after he had left for his journey. She hurriedly opened the envelope and sniffed her hand in to take a CD out of it.
She
loaded the CD in her laptop and impatiently waited for the screen to
animate. .. .
