Immortal Love - 2






#ImmortalLove 

Chapter 2

Diya was sitting with her friends for her Mehandi ceremony. Though she was not looking very sad because her parents, relatives and her friends were with her and the whole environment was full of joy and happiness. Wedding jingles were been playing and small kids were dancing on those tracks. All were dancing, singing and teasing her about her wannabe husband, Nitin. Nitin was a software engineer working in MNC in situated at US. Two months ago, he saw Diya in a wedding function of their common relative. He fell in love as he met her at the dinner table. He was the cousin brother of the groom and was looking all the arrangements while at the whole wedding Diya was around with the bride. After the wedding, next morning when she woke up she heard some noise in hall. When she came out she met Kavita aunty who was looking very happy and smiling. Before Diya could ask, she held her hand and said, “Why are you still sleeping? Go get ready. The boy and his family are coming to see you.”

*********************************************************************
“Papa! You know I love someone else. And you know everything about Robin. And we love each other a lot..", Diya argued.

"Look! Compare your choice with Nitin. Robin is nothing in front of Nitin. He has no family, no parents, neither is he well employed. And he has a criminal record also. We don't know that what he had done earlier in his life and you have no future with him.”
Her father replied, controlling his anger.

"But Papa! He is changed now. And he promised me he will not go in his that life again. Please meet him one more time." Diya said almost crying.

"No word about that boy in my house. If you want to live with him, just leave this house right now and break all the relations with us.",
He made it clearly.

Diya looked towards her mother who was standing at the door. She came and hugged Diya and consoled her, “You are too young for taking such decisions. No parents wants bad for their child. Please don’t break our trust and spoil our name in front of our community. Say yes for Nitin.”

Remembering all this, tears rolled down from Diya's eyes. Her eyes were searching something in that room. Suddenly she stood and went to other room. Everyone was shocked but took it normally as they thought it is normal because of the pressure of the environment, they continued with their dance and music. They were busy with their chores and no one followed Diya.

She came in her room, locked the door and sat on her bed. Her face became wet because of her tears. She hugged her pillow and shifted towards the other corner. After some moments, she opened her drawer and started taking out her things. As her fingers touched something, she got a sparkle in her eyes and wiped her tears.

It was her blue dupatta which was kept from many days with her.  It was old and having many stains on it.

No! These were not stains. This was blood of Robin.
