Story "In the dreams now.."



She was gazing at the red velvet wrapped box since ten minutes but her soul was not supporting to open it.. She was pale, lost, too weak but enough strong to collapse on the cold floor of their room. No breeze could get inside until any window was opened, not a particle of word could breathe smile in her until she went into the situation he went hours ago.
The whiteness which was hugging her from top to toes was not of peace but sheer silence of her life since that moment. The shiny eyes were having a glint but filled with pain, the reason behind her shivering self was the cold tragedy god showered on her!

Her curled fingers opened and arm forwarded to unlock the box.. Those fingers, with a fear held the paper and put all strength to unreveal the words scribbled on it.

Hey love,
I don't know how to say, but as you know nothing would be same when you'll have this in your hand! Hmm, finally the day arrived when you're reading the last page of my diary. You knew about my going, you knew my life was till today only, you knew life would take a sharp turn affecting you more, but still you supported me! You've been a blessing in my life, you have filled the hole in my heart with love, but as it was pre planned, so what if that didn't work, that hole became the bitter truth for separating us. I really apologise for leaving you when we had just started our life by knotting in a seven-vowed relationship. Thankyou for making me smile each second. I am short of words. You'll have to live our life alone now... You must be thinking how I am repeating the backstab by life but you can't deny dear! You need to be strong, you need to live the love we shared Ayesha..
Tears will shed and you must be crying, I know you enough but last time, okay? I don't want to watch you weak from heaven. I know you are my strong lady and I'll always be with you. I have loved you, still love you and will be loving you forever. Umm, now  I am going... Don't, just don't miss me, close your eyes and you'll find me embracing you within myself...
Love you,
Your Aryan.


She kept her orbs fixed on the last letters as they were blurry yet dry because of the tears he cried while shutting the diary.. She caressed the blue ink split on the end which was the imprint of the pen, which dropped down while his hands were done with his name.
Silent tears were making their way down her eyes and wetting up the path over the cheeks and dropping on her hands. She locked the box after keeping the letter inside and rested her back against the wall, lifeless. Her throat chocked, seeing his photo, hung on the wall having the wreath on it, she kept weeping while digesting the fact that he was gone and that was meant to be.
His words echoed her ears and she gently shut her eyelids calling his name "Aryan.." with utmost love and pain. Her hands went up touching his face and then feeling his lips on her forehead for a second... The world of her future flashed making her shudder and she found herself all alone after opening her eyes.. She walked towards their cupboard and took out his belongings and felt all that again.. She hugged his shirt close to her and cried, screaming why he left her! She shook the pillow on which he kept his head n slept, and asked why he didn't take her with him. Her heartbeat rose and she exhaled her breaths clenching his things tightly.
She kept repeating "I miss you... Take me.. I... love... you... Aryann.. " till her lips stopped moving, her eyes went dim and she breathed silently getting into a deep slumber where she could find their togetherness , where she could have the courage to smile and only the place he was meant to be living...

  1. Great one Sakshi! Very vivid text. As soon as you said red box the whole scene in my imagination was having a redder tint. Which made the scene powerful. Powerful imagery always makes the text rich. Nicely done

    I would recommend you spending some time on learning the right grammar though. Simple things like should you use 'since' or 'from' go unnoticed. While writing. But are a little distracting for the reader who knows the right grammar.

    Also you can look up a website called wattpad. People submit their own novels Nd stories there and you will find lot of inspiration.

    Good going dear. Best luck
