Days passed and Pia broke with Sunil’s friend. Sunil got busy with his work but he didn’t forget the days spent chatting with Chahat nor he stopped missing her. Chahat was also busy with her show approaching. Suddenly Sunil heard a tone of 1 message received on his cell. It was Chahat's sms.
Chahat: Hi, How r u?
Sunil: M gud, how abt u? Nice to receive ur msg. I thought u forgot me.
Chahat: M fine too.just messaged to ask abt ur well being.
Sunil: thx for ur consideration.m good and keeping v busy these days.
Chahat: ok u carry on n all the best.
Sunil: thx :) u tc.
In a short span of time that Chahat and Sunil got to know each other, they shared a zillion things about their lives. Sunil was staying away from his family deliberately to prove his father that he can earn on his own without anyone’s support.
He was successful in keeping his promise as he stayed alone, got a job, worked with sincerity and hard work and was earning enough to support him and his friend’s spendthrift habits. He is good at keeping his promises. His friends are his life and he hates lies. These are the things broadly describes Sunil.
2 months later
Sunil called Chahat to tell her something. Chahat heard Sunil saying with his voice filled with extreme elation, “hey I have come back home to my family.” Equally excited Chahat felt a deep glee in her heart. She was extremely delighted and told Sunil with great enthusiasm, “wow, great, I knew it and am so happy for u”. Both of them shared their happiness.
This was the time Sunil expressed his desire to meet Chahat. Well versed with the last meeting, she was apprehensive to do so.
Chahat told Pia and Suman about her conversation with Sunil but they didnt seem pleased on that. They were no longer excited about this relationship.
After days of convincing, Chahat agreed to meet Sunil. She went to Sarojini market to shop clothes for her next performance with her colleagues and while returning she met Sunil in CP. Nervousness again shed her and she didn’t recognize the person standing in front of her. She walked through him and entered the restaurant.It was Sunil she crossed, hardly acquainting him.
Sunil knew her to be a confused soul, followed her inside. In such a short span of time he started understanding her so well.
They greeted each other and Sunil told Chahat about their encounter at the restaurant door. Chahat was embarrassed.
Sunil didn’t have words to explain how wonderful he was feeling as he was meeting her after a long time. He remembered every minute detail of his first meeting with Chahat, her clothes, accessories, her sandals and even the way she was sitting. He kept staring at her. It was a lovely meeting without any quarrels.
Time passed and they both became inseparable. Seemed like they were made for each other. They both had the best times of their lives. Love was finally in the air. Being sensible and mature guy he started to guide Chahat wherever she required his help and Chahat filled a place in Sunil’s heart that no one can ever take. 'Someone somewhere is made for u', finally Chahat started to believe it because she had met her soul mate. Both completed each other. Sunil used to correct Chahat wherever she went wrong and Chahat controlled Sunil during his times of anger.
Fairy tales does exist and there was no better place than earth to stay.Every breath of Chahat started with a thank u to babaji and Pia and Suman for Sunil. He was an angel in her life. This gave her courage, she started to regain her lost confidence and top of that, she fell in love with herself. He is the kind of guy in front of whom Chahat can say any stupidest of thing in the world and will not regret after saying that, knowing very well that Sunil would correct her.
Sunil also liked pampering Chahat. He wanted to stay with her forever to protect her from all the evils in life. He also wanted to make Chahat strong enough to fight the ups and down of life on her own. For this he had to sometimes scold Chahat badly. But feeling bad after every scold became Sunil’s habit.
They started to meet more often for movies, shopping, long drives etc. though Sunil liked watching movies, Chahat loved shopping. Some requests, arguments, a friendly battle and then ruthna and manana. Sometimes shopping won but most of the time movie won.
Sunil and Chahat felt gladden every time they met. Sunil was protective towards Chahat and wanted to bestow her with best things in life.
In Chahat’s terms, he is lovable, caring and a wonderful human being. In Sunil’s terms, she is a sweetheart and kissed her forehead.Chahat saw some of the weirdest of movies on cinema hall and Sunil spent hours in shopping centers buying nothing, completely exhausting. They started to see their future together.There was not a formal proposal but their eyes said it all.Though Sunil confessed his love several times to Chahat but Chahat didn’t take it seriously because she was a fearful girl who is very uncertain of future. She didn’t want to confess her love for him in the dread of increasing his feelings towards her the moment she uttered those words.
Seeing the circumstances, Sunil’s family was not agreeing to this relationship and warned Sunil to limit this bond with Chahat. He still wanted to elope with Chahat but Chahat didn’t want to separate her love from his family. The situation was dicey and future was vague so they decided to spend the present together happily without weeping and crying. "May be God blesses us with our togetherness as a gift."- they wished together.
Chahat trusted God completely so it was his mercy that she was asking for.
After 3 long years of blissful life
Chahat’s birthday was approaching. Suddenly Sunil started to make less calls to her than before. Not accepting what the problem is, she started to encounter him. Everytime she heard was a ‘sorry’. Little did she know what was on his mind. Chahat called several times but every time Sunil was busy.
Getting aggravated by his behaviour she promised herself that she will not call him unless he reciprocates her call. But it didn’t come. Neither the call nor Sunil. He was gone. Gone without telling, without asking, without speaking. Chahat kept searching for him, but to no avail. His number not reachable. Contacted his friends but all she received was one reply, ‘He is not a good guy for you.’ Who are these people to decide who is good or bad for me? Chahat was tormented, she was shattered. All she wanted is to meet him, to confess her love for him. Passing of days became difficult, more difficult was to stay alive.
Love of her life for whom she waited for several re-incarnations is gone in a second. That was hard truth to digest. ‘Please come back’ were the 3 words that Chahat kept murmuring.
At her acting classes her performance in emotional scenes improved as it became easy to cry than laugh, and the tears coming out of her eyes were real. She was receiving lot of compliments for her work but everything was incomplete without Sunil. Her eyes kept searching him in audience but he never came again.
It became a routine for Chahat to spend nights weeping in silence. She remembered all Sunil’s things, his habits, his care, his touch. Anyone could spot Chahat sitting gloomy surrounded by bunch of people. She tried to stay calm and happy to show the world that she is fine. Who used to be a funny channel was now a girl with tears. An optimist was transformed into a pessimist and God was the main culprit as she trusted him for his help. In return he separated both of them.
What could be the reason of Sunil’s sudden departure? Why he said to all his friends to tell Chahat that “he is not a good guy for her"? Her first love dissapeared in front of her and she could not do anything. Pia and Suman told her to be practical. “This is such a harsh word on earth. This meant to forget the moments spent with him that made her happy". "Her future is in dark. Why he did this to her?" However she still trust him and love him completely. "What could have been his bindings that he had to leave her like this?”, she thought.
She started to hate life and if the next moment she has to give her life then she would do it happily.
God united them and he made them apart. The person who showed Chahat the path of living has broken her self confidence. Chahat stopped trusting relationships and started hating the world that separated two lovers greatly in love. Cry and more cry was the destiny now. Every minute and second was filled with Sunil’s memories. She can not forget him because she does not want to.
Chahat thought that, "God wanted two soul mates to meet that’s why he sent Sunil in Chahat's life but actually he wanted to show his authority and superiority that’s why he separated us for no reason."
Life is like this, if this would have been a movie then climax would have been 'Sunil weds Chahat' but reality is cruel.
Chahat’s faith had disappeared. Her lifeline was gone somewhere, but she always prayed to God to "please take care of Sunil as he still is mine, no matter till how long u keep us apart but the love will never fade away."
What is Chahat’s future? What will happen to her next??? All she wanted was togetherness with her boyfriend, was this asking for too much? What have happened to Sunil? Is he missing Chahat like she is? Why they could not be together? What harm could they have caused to anyone if they decided to be together forever? If they were not designed to be together then why they ever met? Will she never be able to meet him again?
Such is life, u will find more questions and less answers, most of the questions remains unanswered till the end of our life.
Life is not a movie and not every love story have happy ending, no matter how deeply you love someone, Chahat finally comprehended it. Her's love story was not a cheerful one.
Can Chahat get her Sunil Back? if she has done nothing wrong in life, then will she be blessed with the one she always dreamt of???

That was such a nice n simple story jazz.... like you concluded it leaves us with so much of questions n no answers :( But its a beautiful story n truly touching.
This is a touching account, leaft with an open ended meaning.
Most of the relationships ends with unanswered questions, and introspection, retrospection etc.
If I was to end this story, I would have done a 'Jab We Met' to it :)
Nice Jas Keep writing! Simply loved it~~
What u say is very true---
"Hum Kyoon Shiqwaa Karen Jhoota!
Kya Hua Jo Dil Toota?
Mitti Ka Khilona Tha;
Kuch Na Kucch Hona Tha,
Hua!"
Kuch pal khushiyon ke hote hain phir lambii judaii.......
"Har bebasi mein, Is zindagi mein,
tujhko hi Chaha, tujko hi Maanga,
Magar jin raaston se guzra yeh Dil tha,
Manzil mili na, chain na paya..."
And the biggest joke is, after all those happy moments,we dont know whether to cherish them or cry whn they come as memories...........
Hey Mrinal.thanks for sharing ur thought.bt always cherish and feel happy abt the good moments that you spent happily. life doesnt end here and there r more happiness to come.some phases of life are tough so be strong and face the challenge that nt everyone cn face.and personally i feel happy and proud of the good times spent with special someone, it doesnt really matter if he is still with us or not.wat matters is the relationship has taught us important lessons of life and hv made us more mature.
