Chapter 11

RR through our eyes (Chapter 11)

From Rudra’s POV –

God also has strange ways of teaching us lessons. But he also shows us the way out. And I am hoping that he shows me a way out of this mess which I created – a mess I created then by convincing you, Paro, to break your promise and the one I created now by not able to convince you,Paro, to break your promise.

But I know the extent of love you feel for me as Myrah. God himself made me realize this when you pushed me out of the danger which was going to crash down on me. The way you threw yourself on me and went crazy with worry was enough to make me understand that though you may not remember your past. You may not have belief in my love like Paro. But you will love me just the same way.

 

In spite of all this you were not ready to call off your wedding with Rohit. You were still adamant to not hurt him. Rohit is not as clueless as you think Myrah. He had got your video message. He was just goading me to express my love to you – by proposing to you knowing very well that I was around. By asking me very relevant questions while I was acting drunk and then walking out at the right time so that I could confess to you. By advancing the wedding date to tomorrow so that you will realize your love for me and agree to cancel the wedding. He knew this all along. He told me yesterday once you ran to you room after saving me from the chandelier. He has also informed his and your parents quite some time back. Hence the absence of all of them. How did you miss this point Myrah ? You know him so well. How did you not know that he will never go against your wish ? He just wants you to confess it in person to him. He wants to make sure you take the right step. On your own. He clearly also let me know that he will never let this marriage happen – if turns out that you still decide to go ahead with it. He is a true friend Myrah. I have also told him everything except the fact that you are Paro. He also has not seen your earlier photos. I was not sure whether he will believe me if he had seen them. So I decided to keep quiet on that part.

 

Between the two of us we decided that it is better that I leave the haveli so that I do not put further pressure on you. Please come around for me Myrah. I have changed. I am not the old Rudra either. Did I not take the step and confess my love to you ? Not once but twice ? Did I not leave the letter for you so that you will miss me ? Did I not make you again feel how you will manage without me when I picked up your lehenga ? Did I not come to you in the night and run my hands in your hair ? And that chain Paro. Hope you like it and have a faint remembrance. This is the one I had wanted to buy for you along with the butterfly earrings. The earrings which you would like and this one from my side. But I never gave you this gift due to all the drama which happened that Karvachauth. I knew you had seen this gift as I saw the wrapper opened much later. After you left. Hope you remember the chain.

More than everything I hope God helps me here. Makes you cancel your wedding with Rohit. At least you agree to stay back with me and Dhruv.

I am now driving away from you Paro. And I have your Rudraksh with me. I failed you Paro. You wanted me to pursue you and find love and keep you. I tried but I failed. Now isn’t it fair that you also do your bit ? And stay back ? What if you don’t succumb to your heart ? And decide to go ahead with the wedding. But Rohit will stop it. He promised. I wonder whether I can trust him. Did I make a grave mistake ? By believing him and leaving you behind ? You haven’t even called me yet. Oh what have I done ? Paro tere liye, I have to come back. I cannot just wait anymore for you.

Rohit’s POV

How much more time should I put up with this charade ? To act as if none of my senses are working ?

As if I have not seen Rudra while proposing to Myrah

As if I did not plan the entire act

As if I did not goad Rudra to talk about his pain and love

As if I got a call when I knew very well Rudra will confess

As if I never saw the concern and love Myrah felt for Rudra

Myrah, when will you come running to me to repeat the lines you left for me in the video message ? Why are you still hesitating ? I want to just hear it from you babe. So that I can be sure this is what you want. That you want to marry Rudra.

You know I already had a long discussion with Rudra. I am convinced that he loves you. From the bottom of his heart. So please Myrah realize your own love for him and cancel our wedding. I have promised your parents and mine that I will never make you do anything against your wish. Please do not make me cancel the wedding. Do it yourself. For your sake. For Rudra’s. And mine.

And here you are. Thank God. Myrah, I am fine. Please go after your love. Bring him back and get married to him. I wish you all the best. I will remain your friend always. Your best friend.

The only thing I do not understand is how did Rudra get those edited pictures of yours ? With him. Well maybe love makes people do strange things.

From Rudra’s POV –

Oh Myrah. Why are you running out like that and straight into my car. Tumhe Kuch Ho Jaata To. Oh my love. Why are you crying ? I have no intention of letting you go. Never will. Shhhhh, see I have come back for you. You don’t have to tell me why you stopped the wedding. I know. I know that you love me. And I love you too. Dhruv, this is not Myrah. This is your mummy. And that is the only thing I can tell you now. The rudraksh is finally back where it belongs. Paro, we will be together. Always. You , me and Dhruv.

We need to start the wedding preparations now Myrah. Though you are my legally wedded wife. In a way it will be good to take you through a dream wedding than the one I put you through last time. Thank GOD for small mercies.
