Why she is always a matter of discussion between us?
Why she is always the reason for fighting between us?
Why misunderstandings between us are always created by her?
Aarush bombarding the round of questions on Aksha.
Aksha is settling down her clothes into the cupboard. Her face reflects the signs of anger, but deeply she and also Aarush knows that it’s not anger. It’s a disappointment, it’s pain – the pain of hurting; the pain of losing something, something precious than a diamond.
“I told you several times and again I repeat it, if she is joining then forgot about me. I wouldn’t come. I didn’t fringe you. You can go if you want to. I will not prohibit you. I will manage my own.”, Aksha answered with a soft tone as much as she can.
“Aashu, my sweetheart!!! Try an understand dear, I can’t go without you. I can’t leave you alone. I want to be with you always. You know that right? I love you na baba.” Aarush tries to make understand her.
But all goes in a vein. Aksha is not ready to understand. She didn’t give any answer and again get busy with her work. She started to prepare coffee. Her silence says a lot . Aarush completely understand her silence so, he tried to break the silence.
Baby!! I can’t go alone, and on another side, I also want to hang out with buddies. Did you ever realize that it’s long five years of over marriage and sadly the last gathering with “Ninja 9”?
Ninja 9, the friend’s group from college, friends from childhood. A group of 9 friends from the KES college of science, Bangalore, India. Who meet as a stranger and becomes more than a family within the three years journey of the golden period of their life. They gain many aspects, they lose several things. They generate a new relation, they learn the value of relationships and friends.
Aksha and Aarush #Aakrush, 2 ninjas from Ninja 9, fall in love with each other when they were in the second year of graduation. They tie a holly knot of marriage just after sealing their graduation ceremony.
Ninja 9 has plenty of entertainment at the time of #Aakrush wedding. After all, Aakrush is the first couple from their group. But sadly, no one knows that it was their last gathering, last moment for their togetherness. After that, they do not plan for a reunion maybe they refuse to meet. No doubt, they were connected within the group but Ninja 9 is divided into small pieces.
Maybe no one wants to hurt Aksha, because after her, a marriage she disheartens from the thing which she never thinks about that. Even she can’t think in her nightmare. She feels like she lost everything within a moment. She takes complete six months to recover from that misery. So, no one has enough courage to hurt her again.
“Excuse me!!!”, Aksha yelled.
“I didn’t bound anyone. I didn’t create boundaries between you and your friend. Do you get that? Stop blaming me for the same reason again and again. I am tired of listening to the same sentence from the last five years.”, Aksha continues to say with anger.
Aarush reveals that now Aksha is out of his control. It’s meaningless if he says anything to her, she will take it on the wrong aspect. So he decides to leave that place to avoid more controversy and more lose to their relationship.
“O.k. F.I.N.E.”, he mumbled. Take his keys and leave his house.
“uhhhhhh……Aarush, wait!!! I am sorry. I am worthless. I shouldn’t behave like that.”, Aksha realizes her mistake and asks forgiveness. But Aarush already left in his car.
She mumbled, “ I never thought that you will be the reason for the misunderstanding between me and Aarush. I hurt you. I hurt you from the depth of my heart.”
Clock range nine bells to notify that it’s 9 o’clock. Aksha is still seating at the balcony by fixing her eyes at entrance. She is waiting for Aarush. He still not come back home. Ultimately she realized that she can’t live without him at least for 2 hours. And she is saying to stay alone for a week.
She went inside, took her phone, dialed his numbers. She wants to apologize for her misbehave and request him to come back.
“Someone is missing me”, Aarush tried to frighten her. He moves slowly towards her and murmurs in her ear, while she is busy to contact him.
“you scared me”, Aksha turned around and replied with a tight hug.
“I am sorry. It’s my mistake. I shouldn’t shout on you. I shouldn’t behave like that. Please don’t leave me again, I realized I can’t live without you for a minute.”, she is weeping and speaking continuously.
“Ahhh… Come on!! I didn’t go anywhere. I went out to buy some food for us. I was returning.., but one of my friend from the office caught me so that I get late.” Aarush tries to console her.
“You will never change. Right? You don’t find it important to inform me at least. I was tensed for you.”, Aksha said.
“You also will never change. Right?”, Aarush replied.
They both laugh and hug each other.
After finishing dinner they were seating at the balcony. She laid her head on his shoulder and he grabs her in his lap.
“Arush… I love you”, Aksha said.
“I love you too Ashu” Aarush replied by cuddling with her.
“Shall we go?”, Aksha questioned
“No, I want to spend more time with you like this.”, He answered.
“Come on, I am asking about our summer holidays.”, She said.
“Yes, Ashu. Definitely. In fact, I booked tickets just while before for our dream holidays to the parish. I planned a surprise for you. Are you happy now.” Aarush answered.
“I am saying about that email invitation for Ninja 9.”, She tries to clarify
“yes, we ninja will rock. Let’s enjoy our time. Finally, we will go on our dream trip.
….
….
….
….
….
Wait, what you say, repeat it.
“I heard Ninja 9. Is that?”, Aarush asked with surprise.
“Yes, baby. I am asking about Ninja 9.”, Aksha reply.
“Oh my God!!! I can’t believe it. Repeat it. I am waiting for it for so long. Thanks. Thanks a lot, for making my fantasy in fact.”, Aarush losing his control over him. He is getting made after listening to those words from her.
Suddenly, he realizes that Aksha is observing his madness with a cute smile on her face. He ran towards her and kissed on her forehead and said, “My dear, my love, my sweetheart you are vigorous. You took the right decision for your self and also for Ninja 9.
After a while.
He took her Mobile and send a message to Dev.
“ Finally, she decided to move on. She is ready for the reunion.”
Aksha talks with herself with disgust, “ I never thought that I will hurt you at this level. It was the time when you were the only person for my happiness, and now you are the only one to whom I hate as much as I can. You ruined everything.
She falls into the deep sleep in the lap of him.
Aarush unlocks her mobile and opens an email application. And read email again.
To,
Ninja 9.
