Yours Lovingly.. :( final part

The 3 days went in a blur..he cudnt even recollect what he did or dint and was eagerly awaiting for Arunas call..It never came. He got tensed and tried reaching her number in vain..The weekend went in trying her number..When he went to office first thing he stopped short of sending her a stinker..he jus wrote Hi and sent a mail..no response came..finally he dared to call up her office and check..he called jaya..
"Hi jaya.."
"heyyy..Ram..watta suprise..u calling me..cudnt believe it..how are u..how are things at ur end.."
He controlled himself and patiently answered her..
"tell me hw cme u remembered me.."
"can u tell me if Aruna is around"
There was a gap before she answered in mock protest.."so..u dint mean to call me..want to know abt Aruna is it..i wnt tell u.."
"pls pls..pls jaya..is she arnd? can u ask her to call me..i am unable to reach her..neither is she replyin to my mails.."
"am i her PA" he could almost sense slight anger in her voice..
"pls jaya..dnt take it like tt..ok..let me tell u something..i am deeply in love with her..." he moment he blurted out..the line got disconnected.
After few mins..jaya called him back..."sorry officer.i dint expect tt shock news and fone also slipped from my shoulder.." there was an usual chirpiness in her voice..."ok..Aruna hasnt cometo office..will tell her to call u once she is here.."
"thanks dear..pls keep the news" and before he could complete..."i knw..dnt worry.." and jaya cut the phone..she deleted the mail she was composing for the past four days for Ram and wiped off the tear drop which was welling up in her eyes and rushed to the rest room.

"Kuch tho hua hai.." sang the new ringtone on his cell..only one persons call ringed like that..he hurried to pick the phone..
"where in d world are u..y u dint pick the fone or answer my mails.."
"Ram.."
"i wanted to talk to u for one final time before i stopped talking with u..u think i am mad here...waiting for ur call..."
"Raam...listen.."
"forget it..u never even considered me a friend...always thot of me as a joker dint u..hey...hey..are u crying...cmon..sorry dear..i dint mean it..u wnt knw how upset i was wen u dint call...u knw u r my only friend with whom i spend almost all my free time..i got scared lest something happened to u.."
"sorry Ram..my fault..i shdve called.."
"its ok.wat happnd.."
"its all over Ram..my parents said No.."
For a moment he dint knew he was more shocked or confused..
"No for what..they havent even seen me"
"seen u? means...now pls dnt joke..i am not in a mood for it.."
"whos joking..anyway..tell me what happened.."
"my parents said no to Akash.."
"Akash who?"
"cmon dont tell me u dnt knw...he is the one to whom u gave my present right..now dnt tell me he didnt tell u..it had the wedding ring i had chosen for him..we got married on a private ceremony wen he came here...he had to leave hurriedly and left his ring in my room itself..luckily u came in at tht time..last weekend i finally managed to gather courage and spoke to my parents abt us..they went wild...more for him coming from a different community.."
After that..whatever she spoke where hardly audible for Ram...he felt as if he became deaf..sweat was running like a steady stream from his forehead..mixed with his tears..
"Ram..are u there..."
"yeah..yes..tell me..."
" i dunno what to do now...cant live without Akash..but cant sacrifice my parents also..."
He consoled her and spoke to her throughout the night on what can be done and in the end decided to visit her parents along with her to help her out..
"Ram...thanksalot for all ur help..dunno wat i wud've done if it hadnt been for u."
"Can u do me a faour.."
"sure Ram tell me.."
"Never commit urself without knowing wat i am goin to ask.."
She laafed and said.."hmm..repeating my dialogue to me huh...tell me..i can do anything for u..i cant say i wud giveup my life for u like in movies..because i want to live ..spend my life with Akash.." there was a childlike cheeriness in her voice.
"Can i be ur best man in ur wedding.."
There was a stunned silence from Aruna.."Ram..how can u b so gud..if it hadnt been for Akash..i wud've definitely fallen for u ..hahaha"
He got his answer.

Urs lovingly,
Gils
