Rehaan Ria Part 2

Ankhen band kar lu jo mein , dekhu bas tumhe
Khwabon mein bhi keh sakta hun apnaa tumhe
Rehne de mera ye wehem pe hi yakin
Na jaoge

Pyar ki yeh raat hai ab na ja
Chotisi ik baat hai ab na ja
Tumhi se hai meri nee

ndein na bhi ho to kya
Tumhi se hai meri baatein na bhi ho to kya
Kehne de taaron ko kahaani ankahi
Na jaoge

Pyar ki yeh raat hai ab na ja
Chotisi ik baat hai ab na ja
Pal do pal ka saath hai ab na ja
Jaadusi ye raat hai ab na ja

Ab na ja

It was like she had come alive. She never thought that life could be so blissful. She looked at him sleeping with his chest rising and falling rhythmically. A half formed smile stuck on her face as she looked at his sleeping face which was like that of a child. Snatches of conversation came back to her.

“It is my first time. I am not sure how…”

“It’s ok Rehaan. Don’t think too much. It is alright.”

 And his pained face flashed across. He was nervous, excited and confused at the same moment. She smiled now and had this urge to give him a hug, but did not want to wake him up. She tip toed to the bathroom to freshen up and take her early morning shower. The morning was beautiful, as if the sun, the trees, the wind, the birds, everyone knew that it was a special day. Everything was perfect when she walked out to the balcony to put her towel to dry.

“Hey! You woke up? Coffee?”

“Umm…no…”

Okay. Something is not sounding right here.

“You are feeling alright?”

“Your room mate has not come in?”

Room mate? Why is he bothered about such things?

“I live alone. I have a habit of saying I live with a room mate to ensure random people don’t come home. I like having my own time and space.”

“Oh…”

Awkward silence followed.

Why am I getting this queasy feeling? What happened?

“Rehaa…” “Ria…”
“Ria… I am sorry. It has never happened with me. I have never lost control. I am sorry about last night.”

Sorry. He is SORRY for last night. He regrets it. This can’t be happening. I thought we felt something out there. Apparently not. ‘Sorry’. That is what he feels. I can’t bear with it.
You slapped me hard, my love you smashed

You spat that word, how ‘sorry’ you are!

Oh Adam! My love, here stands your Eve

Her love is true, not some serpent’s lure…

Don’t say such things, my pleasure’s not sin

Don’t say such words, hold me in your arms

It wasn’t some stint, a one night thing

I felt something, in our heart’s rhythmic ring…

Those eyes had seen, what lips spoke not

Those eyes look lost, that stole my heart

I thought you heard, I felt it so

But now unsure, I feel astray…

Oh why! Oh why! You wring my soul

Come close right now, Or forever you go…

“Leave right now.”

“Listen Ria…”

“LEAVE. RIGHT. NOW.”

Part 3 coming soon...
