CHAPTER 2

Time: 04:50 AM

Place: Rathore Sadan, Delhi

A man in his almost late_ 20's suddenly woke up in a jerk, and sighed, having a look at the digital clock, another sleepless night, thinking about her...

He got up from his bed, after arranging it he went to his walk-in closet and took out a trouser, as he has a habit of sleeping only with his boxers on.

Once he was done with his morning business, he went straight to his home gym...

Rudraksh's pov:

It had been a long time since I had seen those black orbs, and I could not be able to think straight since then. Every time when I try to sleep those black orbs come in front of my eyes and I just zone out,,.

I don't know who she is, I tried to find her out as much as possible, but still I remained unsuccessful in all my attempts.

That girl who saved me, when I was totally broken down, that stranger,,

"Uff, I should now stop thinking about her, Rudr, it's just a mere stranger, you shouldn't think about her"

A voice interrupted my thoughts and that was of my one and only brother, Ahaan,

"Bhai, kaha kho gaye aap, bhabhi ke khayalon me to nahi😏, sirf dumbbells dekh rahe ho, work out bhi kijiye"

{"Bro, where have you lost? Not in the imagination of our sister-in-law right? 😏 You're just staring at the dumbbells; do some workout too!"}

" jubaan kuch jyada hi chal nahi rahi hai teri, credit card vapas le lu? "

🤨

{"Don't you think you are speaking too much? Should I take your credit card back?"}

"Bhai aap majak bhi nahi samajhte, baat baat par credit card vapis lene pe aa jate ho, bacche pe kuch rehem karo" Ahaan said whining like a baby

{*"Brother, you don't even understand jokes! You will bring the credit card for every small thing, have some mercy on this poor child!"}

Rudraksh looked at his brother in disbelief,who had a well grown body with six pack abs (though Rudra himself had eight packs), calling himself as a baby..

"Koi tere drame ke liye pese nahi de raha hai idar, apna naatak band kar aur work out karna shuru kar de, nahi to tera ye six pack family pack banne me jyada der nahi lega"

{"No one is ready to pay you for your drama here, so stop your acting and start doing workout or else it won't take too much time to turn your six packs into a perfect family pack"}

"Bhai, aap jaldi shadi kar lijiye, jab bhabhi maa hongi to aapka gussa bhi apne aap kam ho jayega"

{"Brother, you should get married soon, when sister-in-law (bhabhi) will come , your anger will automatically come under control!"}

"Tu ruk, abhi bata ta hu tumhe"

{"You just stop there, let me tell you.."}

I stopped my treadmill to run behind him but that traitor just flew away.

I continued my work out session to keep my mind busy, away from her thoughts, but whom am I kidding to, those black orbs just flew in my mind in different directions without giving any rent..

"Ek baar samne to aajao, dekhna pura rent, intrest ke sath vapis loonga"

I again smiled thinking about her and completing my work out session I looked at the watch, it was time to take a bath, so I went away informing my lil brother, who was running like a deer on a treadmill

{"You just once come in front of me, then you just see, how I will take back the rent with interest"}

Entering the bathroom, I discarded my clothes, and stood under the shower, I let the water fall over my body, thinking about that night,

Flashback

7 years ago...

That was the night, when I was completely broken down, getting betrayed by my own employees, confidential news of our company was leaked out, I was just looking like a looser, a joke, who every one was laughing at..

Yeah, some one once said it right,however strong a person might be there always comes a certain consequence where that person could not hold anymore, however strong he might try to act, but looses his sane self at certain point and that was the point when I met her,,,,

I'm not sure, but she might be a doctor now, cause that day

I was crying very hard on a bridge at night, there were some lorries passing through the bridge, but unaffected by any of those voices I was just crying out loudly.

Then I saw a girl sitting beside me, her age might be 14 or 15, she looked at me and gave her hand kerchief,and said

"Bade log rote nahi hai"

{Elders do not cry}

"Tum kon ho bacche, is vakt yahan?,akeli ho?, dimaag to thik hai naa tumhara? Itni raat ko koi akele bahar aata hai?",

{"Who are you kid? What are you doing alone at this time? Are you out of your mind?"}

I scolded her and she said,

"Bohot rude hain aap, aap ro rahe the to console karne me aayi to aap mujhe daat rahe hai, jab me doctor banungi tab ana mere paas, itne injection lagaungi ki datna chodiye baatein karna bji bhool jayenge aap"

{"You're very rude, you were crying and I came to console you, but instead, you're scolding me. When I become a doctor, come to me, I'll give you so many injections that you'll forget even to talk, let alone scold."}

That was the first time I laughed in that entire stressful week

Looking at me laughing, she said,

"Haste rahenge to acche dikhenge, nahi to bohot rudy dikhte hain aap, Mahadev ko maaniye, sab accha hoga"

{"You look good when you smile or else you look too rudy. Pray to Mahadev, everything will be alright."}

My laugh stopped abruptly and I said,

"Itna hone ke baad bhagwan ko kis dil se maane hum, jab tumhare khud ke log tumhe dhoka de to kis dil se hase hum?"

{"How can we still have faith in God after everything that's happened, when even your own loved ones deceive you, how can we find the strength to smile again?"}

She looked at me momentarily and said,

"Koi apko apna dhoka de vo apna hota hi nahi hai, jo apne hai hi nahi unke liye kyun hi aasu bahaye? aur jo such mein apna hota hai vo kabhi aapka dhoka bhi nahi de sakte na hi apko takleef mein dekh sakte hai"

{"Why shed tears for someone who isn't yours, and who never was? And the one who truly is yours will never betray you, nor will they ever cause you pain."}

"Sach kaha tumne vo to mere apne kabhi the hi nahi shayad"

{You told the truth, perhaps he was never my own.}

"Bura na manu to ek baat puchu aapse?"

{"If you don't feel bad then can I ask you a question?"}

"Puchoo"

{Ask..}

"Jisne aapko dhoka diya ve aapke parivaar me se the? yaa fir aapke dost the?"

{"Is the person who betrayed you a part of your family? Or are they your friends?"}

"Mere company ke managing director the, he was not related to me by blood but he was not less than a father to me"

{"He was the Managing Director of my company and was not related to me by blood but was not less than a father to me"}

"Ab jo hua so hua, aap rote bethenge to aur bhi log aa kar apki mehenat se banayi company ko duba denge, mujhe aap par pura bharosa hai aap apni life mein bohot aage badenge aur meri taraf se aapke liye ye Rudraksh, ise hamesha aapke saath rakhna, sambhal kar rakhna, mere Mahadev aapko hamesha protect karenge"

{"What's done is done. If you keep crying, more people will come and ruin the company you've built with your hard work. I have complete faith in you, you will go very far in your life. And from my side take this Rudraksh (a sacred bead), keep it with you always, take care of it. My Lord Shiv will always protect you."}

Saying this she removed Rudraksh which was tied around her neck which was carved with gold on both the sides, tied it around my neck and left from there, I could not be able to see her face throughout the conversation because of the dupatta she was wearing which was covering her entire face except her beautiful eyes..

And I close my eyes to feel the Rudraksh around my neck once I opened my eyes I found no one except me and I checked the entire road to see if she was hiding anywhere, but she was not..

For a moment I thought everything is just my illusion but once I touched my neck I found Rudraksh with a gold chain...

Flashback ends..

That day knowingly or unknowingly what she said affected my brain and heart the most and what I'm today, where I'm today might be the whole credit goes to her, if it was not for her I could not even imagine what my situation would be, they say naa

"Doobte ko tinke ka sahara"

{"A drowning person needs a straw for support."},

She was that support for me I never knew I needed!!!

Since that day I'm trying to find her but to my dismay all the attempts are in vain, but I'm determined to find her and one day I definitely will....
