Chapter-29
“Let Me Go…”*“Hello Sir? Would you please pass your phone to Komal? She’s not picking up her phone!”
“Aditya, what happened? Komal seemed a bit off mood & now you sound disturbed too!!”
“Sir, I promise I’ll explain you everything later on, but for now please tell Komal to pick up her phone!!”
After few more tries, Komal received the call.
“Hello Komal! Please don’t disconnect the line! I need to talk to you right now!”
“It’s of no use Aditya! Both of us are aware of the facts, and right now the biggest truth is that Amrita has come back into your life…”
“No it’s not! The biggest fact is that I love you! And I am in no position to lose you!! Why don’t you understand?”
“Why don’t you understand Aditya… it’s true that we both are in love, but it’s equally true that in this position Amrita has no one to be called as her own! She has lost almost everything in the riots. She has come to you for the love and support that you promised her! And I can’t take that away from her. I simply can’t…”
“Komal, listen to me… please!”
“Don’t call me up again Aditya. Goodbye!”
*********************************************************
Amrita was in Aditya’s flat, she was perhaps too shaken to notice the evident change that was all around the place which had Komal’s name on it.
“Here’s your coffee…”
“Thanks Adi!”
“Where’s Auntie?”
“She’s with our cousin’s in Delhi. I dropped her there and rushed back here. They were dead worried thinking about us! Even they searched every hospital. Mom totally forgot to inform them! I guess she was under too much shock seeing me and daddy both in that condition.”
“Uncle’s alright?”
“He’s alright now; he was almost senseless by the time I reached there. Paralysis has taken it’s toll. He can’t speak or move a lot now.”
“He’ll be alright, don’t worry about that.”
Amrita hugged Aditya tightly and said
“I’m sorry I left you in between all these troubles, it must’ve been very hard on you.” She was crying.
Aditya held her in his arms and said
“Don’t worry! Everything will be allright!”
