The room was humbly furnished. A single bed, a few chairs and table, cupboard, bookshelves, and her puja.
In the center among all the deities, was the daughter's picture.
She was lost in thoughts in the midst of prayers.
"Pray to him, only when you remember him" Kaveri whispered in her ear.
She was still here. "When such bonds exist between two souls, they are never broken"
She had lived an year more than what the doctors had thought possible. She had agreed to get the treatment done but insisted that it was only the happiness that was carrying her through. She had healed every pain, she had taken away all the sorrow, all the agony.

"Krishna"
Taarush was standing at the door smiling.
"I miss her terribly too"
She touched the picture lovingly "Why miss her? She's very much with us. Isn't she?"
They smiled at each other.
"Mr. and Mrs. Teotia have come. They wanted to meet you. They want to take Soumya home"
"Ah thats wonderful. I wanted to meet them as well. I'll come in a minute"
She went downstairs.
Taarush introduced her to the couple.
"Krishna, the life and breath of Jayant House" he said
"And his wife" she said smiling at him.
They laughed.
While they were talking, a child entered the room and sat next to Krishna, leaning her head on her arm.
"This is your daughter?"
"Yes, say hello to uncle baby"
"What's your name princess?" Mrs. Teotia affectionately inquired.
The child smiled shyly but proudly revealed
"Kaveri"
This was one awe-wait for it till I find the remaining half-SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DeleteThe writing has been par excellence. But that comes with Rohu.
ReplyDeleteWhat is really note worthy, is the fact that the story is one for the books or even the big screen. Well plotted, and one that's gonna walk with you after you've read it.
Thank you so much Anupam. Thank you for acknowledging this humble attempt in such a grand manner! But that comes with being Anupam. :)

Too good Rohu. Gripping and very well written.
ReplyDeleteI must confess though that I waited for a post to indicate that it was the last part, before I read them all end-to-end ek saath :-). The suspense really gets to me otherwise :-)
