GOOD-BYE!
Sahaj was from a bourgeois family. His father was a technician in a private firm and an alcoholic. He was never like that, but money and responsibility put him into such condition and made him totally irresponsible against the family, he once loved the most. From the meager income he earned daily, major portion was for his daily enjoyment. He was always ignorant to Sahaj and his younger brother. His mother was very hard working and she always handled the intricacies of life with all the big heart. Sahaj was very close to her mother. Because of the conditions at home, he was very responsible, caring and hard working. Sahaj studied very hard for two years to get into the engineering college. And he was very happy with all the proud moments he had brought to her mother after he got the admission. His job was another happy moment for his family and his mother was very proud.
Akuti was from a very good earning family where her parents were government officials and all her life she'd been cosseted by her family. Her things were royal, her actions were demanding and conspicuous. They both were happy even after all the differences, but somewhere Sahaj was insecure about their relationship. They talked about it many times, and with that, their differences were becoming less important for them with time.
Sahaj's maternal aunt was married in New Delhi and he decided to stay with her for few days. He was very close to her aunt and she knew each and everything about Akuti. He stayed there for four days. Before leaving for home, he met her in college campus outside the canteen. She wore a stylish narrow tunic with many folds that fell from her shoulders in which she was looking very pretty. Next day she wore a denim shirt with jeans and Sahaj was just looking at her uninterruptedly. Their plan was to have lunch with her friends and they had a lot of fun there.
They did shopping and he gifted her a Jerry. They talked, played games, had lunch and lots of fun.
Sahaj was planned to leave for new job after one week and that was the last day for both of them to have time together. Love is a feeling of gloominess in being separated and a zeal to end the separation as soon as possible. How one can describe a situation where you know that you will not be able to see the other person for next few months or years with whom you are madly in love? It's hard to describe! Sahaj and Akuti were in the same situation. They were feeling the power in their love, joy and delight in the presence of each other and a pain in thought of separation. People often overcome prejudice, rigidly defined rules, religious differences, family objections, etc., in order to be with their love, even to the point of migrating away to escape cultural boundaries, adopting some other religion, or conforming to some other culture. Love is all about breaking conditions to get it!
"Actually expressing weekend in words is not that much easy for me as I thought it would be. The feeling was full of love and affection all around. We were in love totally and were not happy with the thought of leaving each other, but it was a sign of intense love also that we had.
I love you!
Miss me! "
There is a famous quote by Khalil Gibran :
“Love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation”
Although they were not separated for life, but even a single thought of separation can make you feel sad when you are not able to live a single moment without that person.
While coming back to the hostel, she went to the canteen and ordered snacks for her and Sahaj. Even though she was alone, but that table was making her feel presence of Sahaj. She stayed there for 30 minutes and then left.
