Close Apart

Chapter-34

“They Meet (Finally)”

Tuesday came, along with it came a lot of memories, both good and bad! Aditya was uncertain whether he can actually go through with his wedding or not! Ironically a feeling that he had heard all grooms face on their wedding day! But his position was entirely different. It felt like something was tearing him apart from within.

“It’ll be alright! Its normal feeling cold feet in situations like these.” Said Manish.

“You don’t get it Manish! Have it ever occurred to you that what kind of situation I am facing? I’ve loved Komal as I’ve never loved anyone else in my life! But still the fate decided otherwise!” Aditya said.

“Don’t think of those things now! Just remember that you promised your life to Amrita and now going to marry her today!”

“Yes! By The way when will Amrita come?”

“She called me up, she said that she’ll reach the registrar’s office directly at 11:00 am.”

“I really don’t know what she is doing! When I am stressed out here, she’s playing her fantasies in all different ways you can imagine. Ok then, it’s nearly time, let’s get through with this!”

**********************************************************

Aditya & manish were outside the marriage council office,

“Where is Amrita? She should already be here!” Aditya said in a worried tone. “Why is she late?”

“I am not late!” Amrita said, coming out from the office, “I came early! I can’t wait any more!”

“So what are we waiting for?” asked Aditya

“Just for my witness to come” Answered Amrita.

“And who might be this secret witness of yours?” asked Aditya.

“You’ll have to see it for yourself!” said Amrita in a mysterious voice.

Almost immediately, a white fiat slowed down at the parking, which was not at all unfamiliar to Aditya. Out of which, came out Komal & her parents!

“They are as special to you as your own family! I wanted them to be a part of this special day!” Said Amrita.

Aditya was speechless. “She never stops amazing me!” he thought.

Komal was wearing a yellow sari and was looking gorgeous than ever!

Aditya never thought that she would agree to come to his wedding. It must’ve been very difficult for her!

“Ah! That makes two of us!” Aditya thought as he sighed out one last time before leaving his bachelor life behind as he entered the office!

after such a long time, the thread of the story is, well, not exactly lost, but on the verge of tearing.

The Way Beyond (Prologue)

I woke up!  It was dark, tried opening  my eyes, didn't do much help. As if I was inside a void with only darkness around me .  I opened my eyes and the darkness flooded in! I tried remembering where I was, tried remembering something that  could explain why I am here, all in vain. My head hurt and I couldn't recall  anything. It felt like the time has collapsed on itself and now there is nothing else, well except for this dark void.  They say your lizard brain wakes up in these situations. From the depths of your consciousness, and attempts to guide your instincts to safety. I see something now! Maybe my eyes have finally adjusted themselves to this darkness. Something familiar comes into my vision, laying in front of me. A leather spined book on top of a towel, an old leather bound book. I looked around, I was sitting in the shade of a tree. Can you still call it a shade when there is nothing but darkness around? Like if a tree falls in...

Close Apart (Chapter-2)

Close Apart Chapter – 2 “They meet…” “British Council, 5:00 pm, Hmm” The reason Aditya was thinking so much that day, because meeting Amrita at 5’o clock would mean that he would have to leave his office half an hour ago than his usual time. And that would mean that he’ll have to take this matter to his manager’s concern. “At 5:00!! What for? “ “Actually I have an appointment… with my… Dentist.” God knows why Dentists get involved in these appointments!! So, there he was! Out of his office, half an hour earlier than usual.Aditya was feeling a little uneasy. Actually he was never comfortable with girls. An issue which was of a major concern for his fellow colleagues. Many a times his friends have arranged blind dates for him, but all in vain!! But this time it is little different. Anyone who had known Aditya would have gone through a major shock viewing him talk to a girl, but Aditya knew he had a header here. Actually, Amrita was in the same class, in which Aditya used to study… “So yo...

Close Apart (Chapter-8)

Close Apart Chapter-8 “Here She Comes…” Still coping with the pain of leaving his ‘lady love’ for the rest of the week, Aditya dragged himself towards the platform where Rajdhani Express was about to arrive. Komal was coming in the couch AS2. So when the train arrived Aditya went near the coach and waited for her to pop out. A few moments later a young girl came out. Aditya had some genuine doubts about her being Mr. Arora’s daughter, he never thought that his daughter could inherit such beauty, but when he saw that she was actually giving a feel of looking for someone, Aditya approached. “Excuse Me, Miss Komal Arora?” “Yeah!?” “Aditya here, Actually Mr. Arora had an important appointment so…” “But Dad Said that he’ll be here!!” “It was a last minute change!!” “Look! I don’t need this…” “Excuse me?” “I mean I don’t need anyone to receive me at the station and escort me to my home!! I am old enough to handle these things.” “I can understand…” “No you can’t! So just show me where the car...
