“Who I am Geet?” A eager heart was supposing to pulse in normal, but seemed, it was next to impossible. His eyes, his mind, his every single cell of body, his everything which was under in his own ownership were waiting to get, what would be the most precious thing of his life, her agreement. A word of her acceptance, which would complete his thought with pool of happiness and a comfort of living, which would be with him forever, without any fear of losing the person, whom he loves the most. Though, she had confessed her feeling for him yet, seemed she was living under same hesitation, which was parting their relation. The hesitation, fear of this society, doubt in her own, lacking efficiency in herself, were her adversaries and he was waiting her to tear off theses all curtains of separation, between their relationship.
“Geet, tell me!!’’
“Maan’’ a dull whisper came out from her mouth. For few beginning moments, she was entirely numb what had happened, happening or will happen, She had no idea of all. But slowly she started to gain her lost sense and then, reality embedded in her mind.
“What was all that Maan?’’ she asked, fixing her tearing eyes in his. She saw a thin line of smile on his lips. His face was bright, like he had won something, something very precious. He was not moving, not saying, he was vigorous.
“You dint tell me, Who I am to you?’’
A silence overshadowed entire place where two souls were exchanging their style of living. One soul wanted other to become like him, live like him. He had opened the door of his heart, where she saw a heaven. A white and cloudy heaven. it which was so beautiful and serene. She hesitated and looks him. He blinked his eyes, assures her that “Go! Go inside and play, dance, enjoy!! do whatever you want because I am here, surrounded you, covering you, saving you from all the evils, outside. She nodded and smiled, starting going inside his heart when he stopped her. She looked him in awe. “Geet, you have full right to possess my heart, just once tell me who I’m to you’’ he repeated his question.
She read his eyes, she knew he was everything which anyone could ever wish for. A security, a power, a faith but the most mainly part, a heavenly world of heart, which was open for her. She smiled, neared to him, reached to him to the extend, that she could hear the noise inside his restless heart.
“You are my everything Maan’’ she spoke. “You are the one, for whom I can fight with this whole world and I would not, move back even if this fight takes my mere life in exchange of your’s ’’ she headed and entered in his heart and closed the door, behind. He was complete. He had won. He found, she was embarrassing him with entire authorities. He covered his arm around her to give her warmth of his love, compassion of their love.
“I’m sorry Maan. You was doing all these for me only and I—I shouted on you, chided you said you what shouldn’t have, but you, dint even utter a word against me. I was blaming you for insulting my family, which I have never seen. I don’t know what happened to me that moment Maan! I had been mad, I’d been insane that told you all those which I know, would hurt you most. I’m sorry ‘’ Her tears were soaking cotton fabric of his shirt, Near his heart. “I’m such a stupid, such a fool really that could not understand all it was just a drama, which you did for me. I’m really feeling bad Maan ! I’m sorry!! ’’
Maan moved her back and kissed her falling tears. “I too insulted your family Geet, so I should be the one who would say sorry not you! You were absolutely right on your place and you know what, I wanted to see same, likewise you did. You defended them, whom, you never had seen. You even don’t know who they are, how they look like yet, you fought for them. Knowing that those are connected to you. This, is the only thing I wanted to see in you Geet and I saw, I found what I was waiting for. Your inner fire, the fire which is enough to burn up this whole world if anyone gaze their ill eye, upon your own people, on me ! Won’t you?’’
She nodded.
He cupped her face, looked her lovingly. “Listen me Geet. No one can insult you, taunt you for what, you are not responsible and if they do, then it’s you, who will go and shut their mouth off whichever way you can. Geet you are hearing them and they are assaulting you because they know, you will not do anything, would not oppose them. They have decided you are not strong and so, they will do bigger what they have been doing. But if you will show you are not afraid of them, believe me Geet they could not even able to raise their eyes on you ’’
‘’They blamed on our love Geet and if, you think it’s right whatever they said than I will not force anymore, you but if, you really think that our love is as pure as anyone can have so, I want you, to give them answer and accept me, in front of this whole society.’’
“Tell Geet will you do this much for me!!’’
She nodded, could not do more and She hugged him, smiling.
