Maruf and Raisa’s eyes met. Raisa immediately ignored Maruf and looked at Dhruva again. Dhruva once again put food in Raisa’s mouth. Maruf was observing the matter with a single glance. Raisa kept the entire restaurant atmosphere alive with various stories and laughter.
Dhruva himself is a man with a lot of humor. He knows how to attract a woman very well. He kept Raisa’s attention by saying many nice things. In a break, he said to Raisa, can I take a selfie of us?
On any other day, Raisa might have said no directly. But today, probably because of seeing Maruf or because she was in an incredibly good mood, she stood up and started taking pictures next to Dhruva. After eating, Dhruva walked her home.
As soon as he reached home, Dhruva sent a text. Raisa was quite busy talking to him. She had completely forgotten about Maruf. After finishing speaking, she held the phone in front of her eyes and saw that a message had come from an unknown number.
It was written there, I saw you at the restaurant today. You have changed a lot.
Raisa was surprised. It was definitely Maruf. Still, he replied, who are you? Introduce yourself.
– You must have forgotten my number.
This time Raisa did not reply again. She left it blank. She laughed a little to herself.
After a while, Maruf sent another message, it was good to see you starting a new life.
Raisa did not reply again. It was quite fun to leave it blank. But who knows what happened to Maruf today? After a while, he sent another text, this time the message was very long. Although Raisa was a little annoyed at first, she immediately wanted to read the message. It read-
Raisa, you were the most precious gift in my life. I lost you because of my own stupidity. I am not well, Raisa. You may think I am very happy. But to be honest, I am just adjusting to the situation. But I am not well at all. Even if I regret it all my life, my pain may never end. I can feel how precious you were in my life little by little every day. I know it is too late. I have started a new life, you have started too. Both of our lives have now moved in different directions. I do not have the face to apologize to you. Still, I ask for your forgiveness with folded hands. Please forgive me. If you forgive me, maybe some peace can come to my life.
Seeing his message, Raisa first thought that she would not reply again. Later, she replied, thinking about something, okay. Be well.
– I am very happy to see your change. I heard from a friend that you are working in a good post in a very good organization. At first, I did not recognize you when I saw you today. You are my Raisa! I couldn’t take my eyes off you. I will regret it for the rest of my life. How precious a person I have lost.
Raisa laughed out loud after reading the message. This smile was mixed with sky-high pain. This smile was mixed with the pride of victory. A small glimpse of her daily efforts. Her smile did not want to stop in any way. She was looking at the mirror while taking a bath after leaving the shower in the washroom. When she came out of the shower and stood in front of the mirror to dry her hair, the smile remained on her face. When she tried to sleep while lying on the bed, a smile still remained on the corner of her lips.
After that, a few days passed in great excitement. Every day, as soon as she returned home after finishing work, Dhruva would text her, are you very tired? Can we meet up sometime?
Raisa would smile and reply, where are you?
Dhruva immediately replied, near your house. If you give me permission, I will come downstairs.
Raisa was very happy then. She then told Dhruva, I am very tired. I need more rest.
Then Dhruva wrote to her with a sad emoji, give her a rest. But I miss you.
Doing such crazy things every day has become her habit. Show her the madness, Raisa is becoming a habit. Dhruva finds such naughty sweet crazy things quite enjoyable.
Similarly, this evening she sent a text, how are you feeling? Are your mind and body good?
Today Raisa didn’t make any more excuses. She replied to Dhruva, there’s no need to say anything else. Come downstairs, I’m going downstairs.
Seeing Dhruva, Anand said with a bright face, thank you, for coming downstairs with such difficulty.
– And you come to the house with such difficulty every day. Do you deserve any thanks for this?
– That’s your choice. I started talking to you. You didn’t mind, did you?
– I think the era of minding when you say it was around 2000. These days, no one minds when you say it. Rather, if you do it, they probably mind.
Dhruv said with a smile, would you like to sit somewhere?
– Let’s sit somewhere nearby.
The two of them came inside a small, aesthetically pleasing restaurant nearby and sat down. Music was playing softly in the background. The music and the quiet, bright atmosphere of the restaurant all created a kind of sweet and sweet atmosphere. The two of them sat facing each other. Today, eating food was just an excuse. The two of them sat facing each other, their minds became different with the melody of the music. Everything felt good. They talked about many colorful topics. Dhruv told the story of his life. How his childhood was spent and how his adolescence was spent, etc. Raisa also listened to Dhruv’s story with great attention like an obedient girl.
Raisa said, if you want, you can share it like this every day. But I enjoy listening to it.
– I feel good about it too. Honestly, I can’t find a person to talk to. And certainly not one to talk about myself.
– But I don’t believe it at all, Dhruv.
– It’s up to you whether you believe it or not. But I’m telling the truth. The girls I meet, or those who come to me, are all very modern. Everyone is busy with their own lives. Just as they have little time to talk, they don’t have any time to listen to me. You are the only person in my life to whom I can tell the stories of my childhood and adolescence.
Raisa said with a smile, I am blessed to hear.
– I also want to be a little blessed.
– How?
– If I get your love. The only purpose of my life now is to be the person you love.
– Isn’t that right? When did you start liking me so much?
– You are really precious to me. To me, you are the most special person in my life. As days go by, the tension in my heart for you is increasing. I want to meet you, I want to spend time with you. I want to tell you about my love. But I haven’t received your love yet. So I have to keep my feelings undisclosed. It’s very difficult. I feel for you in my heart but I can’t show it. There is no guarantee that you will be mine. Still, I wait for you every day. You can never imagine what this feeling is like, Raisa.
Raisa took a breath and said, then stop waiting. Enjoy your life in your own way. If you can, settle your life with someone else. Actually, there is no way I will be able to set up my mind. I really like talking to you. You have become like a very good friend to me. But I cannot give any guarantee whether a love relationship will happen at all. Because I still have no preparation for love or marriage. After the big storm I have overcome, I don’t want to give up on love so easily.
Dhruv asked, don’t you trust me, Raisa?
– To be honest, I still trust you very much – I can’t get up.
– Seriously! You still haven’t been able to trust me?
– If you were in my place, you would understand. A girl, whose boyfriend she has destroyed everything and loved, has built a colorful house of love. That man has broken all the places of trust and brought the girl to the dump. If you were in the girl’s place, you would feel. The feelings between an unmarried girl and a divorced girl will never be the same. The perspectives of the two are different. Two different stories in the diaries of their experiences.
Dhrub suddenly came towards Raisa and said, I am sorry Raisa. If you are heartbroken, I am really very sorry.
– It’s okay. There is one thing I have never told anyone. Do you know that?
– What?
– I have a brother. Since I left my family, he has never gone to our parents’ house. He could not accept that I suddenly came home with a divorce. I had many arguments with him about this. My mother scolded him very badly. Since then, he stopped coming home. My own mother’s brother could do this to me. To whom I have become a criminal. Tell me, which person in the world will I trust anymore?
Dhrub looked at her with surprised eyes. There was no answer on his face. After pausing for a few seconds, he said, everything will be fine. Time will fix everything, Raisa.
– Not time. The situation of people. I have sorted out my life. I can support myself enough at home now. Now my relatives are quite generous towards me. But when I came home, they were the ones who used to tease my mother all the time, talking about divorce. But you didn’t have to face all this. So you will never understand my place. Dhrub, I request you. If you are in too much of a hurry, you can choose anyone else. Don’t have any expectations from me. Maybe I will never fulfill your expectations. Or I will. I don’t know for sure.
Dhrub looked into Raisa’s eyes, fascinated. Raisa looks wonderful in the yellow light of the restaurant. Why does he like this sweet girl so much? No matter what the girl says, she doesn’t care. Looking at Dhrub’s smiling face, Raisa starts to feel different. That’s why she doesn’t want to come in front of Dhrub. What if she falls in love again? It’s difficult for her to trust someone new. But the human mind and body are so different that they give more importance to their feelings beyond all logic. Raisa doesn’t want to make that mistake. After eating some light food, she returned home like today.
A few days later
Rehnuma Begum’s health is quite bad. Raisa took an early leave from the office and came to her mother’s house. Her mother is lying on the bed. Adnan himself is sitting near her head and pressing his head! The two meet face to face after a long time..
