The Day of Epiphany
After reading Gauri and Nikita's coversation, I was very disappointed but angry at the same time. I acted like nothing had happened but inside I was broken. I messaged her next day and asked whether we can meet today?
She refused saying there are guests coming at home, wont be possible to meet.
I was on verge of breaking my anger, I asked her, Really?
She said yes, She wont be able to chat in the evening.
It opened the 3rd eye of mine... (If you know what it means)
I asked her "Why? That boy you are going to meet doesnt know about us or what?
She asked shockingly, "What? What are you saying?"
I didn't waste time and told her angrily.
"I found your fb account open in my phone, read your conversation with Nikita, Who is that boy?"
She just said in a frustrated voice, "How could you do this? You were stalking on me? I didnt expect this from you"
As every girl does....
She disconnected the call.
I was in anger.
I messaged her saying, "I too didnt expect this from you"
There was no reply, I didnt message or call either. I felt like devastated. I was crying.
One hour later, She messaged me, it was an address and told to meet her there at 5:30 pm.
I went there, before time (couldn't control till 5:30).
I couldnt wait to see what she wanted to say. I called her, And I asked,"How much time will you take to reach here? And whose address is this?"
"Its that boy's address, his name Ayush. You can wait or go inside as you wish" She said.
I waited outside for some time. And a woman from that house, came towards me, noticing I am standing near the gate for a long time. She asked
"What do you want son? Why are standing here?"
"I am waiting for a friend, We are Ayush's friends" I said.
She forced me to come inside and sit. I suppose she was his mother.
I was afraid and worried, that if Ayush comes and doesnt recognise me, It would be a lie that I told to his mother.
She asked me whether I would have tea/coffee or juice. I asked for water. She said to be comfortable.
I was actually very uncomfortable thinking that I am at my Gf's lover's home. Oh God! Whats happening in my life. While I was thinking, my eyes stuck on the wall against me. A photo of young boy with a garland was hanging. It felt strange to me. Somewhere my heart started pumping faster thinking it was Ayush. I went through all the scenario in fraction of second and was completely shaken.
His mom came with glass of water, I just had a sip which didnt help me get out of my nervousness. I didnt know how to ask whether this photo is of Ayush, so I asked her "Does Ayush have a sibling?"
She said,"No, He was the only son of ours. He was a gem of person, It doesnt feel like its been 3 years since he passed"
I was shaken from inside. From the situation of his mother to the situation of Gauri, I was feeling very bad. His mother was speaking to me. But I was lost in my thoughts, My mind filled with guilt of doubting Gauri, accusing false allegations on her. I couldnt hold my tears.
I got up and started leaving his house, I couldnt wait till Gauri comes, I was not in situation to face Gauri now. Ayush's mom tried to stop me but I left the house. With tears in my eyes I was leaving his home, I saw Gauri coming.
I felt so guilty that I couldnt move or utter a word. Only tears rolled down my eyes. I could only say "Sorry"
She just hugged me and cried. Said "I am always yours, only yours. Please forgive me, I should have told this to you, but only fear was that you will judge me by my past and leave. I am sorry"
"I love you Gauri, please dont hide anything from me, I am only yours" I said to her.
Since then, I trusted her and accepted for however she was. We both never hindered each other's privacy. We were happy. But It was time for introducing us to each other's parents. Both the incidences are quite entertaining. I can't wait to tell.
How did we do it? (I mean meeting)
Did our parents accept us?
Well lets see this in the next chapter. Until then keep loving and keep reading.
