His Inner Eyes
Khushi was waiting for her college bus. She saw many vehicles crossing him, though it was just 8 in the morning, everyone were busy with their works. She was just watching everyone to kill her time till the bus arrives.
Suddenly, she saw a man who was crossing her in bike. He was sitting behind his friend who was driving. He was man of personable. She was instantly attracted to him… She stood staring at him till he was out of her sight.
Next day too she was waiting for her college bus, again she saw the same man in his friend’s bike. This time he too saw her and passed a smiled.
This became a routine for Khushi.. Seeing him was the only thing she waits for daily. Each day, she was getting attracted to his charm. It almost went for a week.
Now, Khushi was very sure about her feelings, that she loves him. It was love at first sight her, she thought he too loves her.. She assumed it to be, when she sees him smiling at her daily.
That day, she was late by 10 minutes.. She saw her man coming in bike at distance. She was running towards her bus-stop just to catch a glimpse of him. But what she saw shocked her to the core. She saw him smiling at some other girl in her stop. She watched the girl who was giving him shy smile.
She was heart broken, not able to take this, she ran back to her hom. She cried.. Cried.. till her eyes closed tired of crying.
Next day, she was decided to confront him, she took her friends scooty and waited for him in her bus stand. She saw him coming towards her , as usual he passed a smile… This angered her.
She started her scooty and followed him.. She saw the bike stopping before one of the Music gallery. She saw him getting down and entering the gallery showroom.
She too followed him and saw him taking something from his bag. Her heart broke million times than seeing him smiling at some other girl. She was crying instead showing her pain. Now, She doesn’t have the pain of betrayal, but the pain of being misunderstood him. She felt her throat burning, choking her words.
“Excuse me mam”
She heard someone calling her. She turned behind to see his friend..
“Mam.. What happened?.. Why are you crying?. How can I help you?” asked the person..
She didn’t speak anything instead she pointed her finger at the man who was touching and caressing the piano…
“Oh.. he is Arnav Singh Raizada mam. A Singer and Guitarist.” said the man…
“His eyes?”
“He lost his eyes in a accident two years before mam…”
Khushi felt her entire world was slipping from her hand.
“What can I do for you mam?”
Khushi shook her head as no..
That person moved from that place thinking what had happened to this girl..
She felt more iniquity.. guilt… what not..
Now she got to know the reason of his smile. It was not any intentional act… It was his way of hiding things. She felt herself too low for doubting him.. That day she decided that, He will be the only man in her life.
After 6 months…
Arnav was as usual coming, he passed a smile, the girl who was standing in the bus stop, smiled at him… The person who was driving the scooty, gave a glare to the girl, silently warning no to eye her man… its none other than, Khushi.. Khushi Arnav Singh Raizada..
They just got married two days before. Only she knows how hard she tried to make him fall in love with her. He gave a tough time to her, but she was happy for that. Because she understood him much much much better than anyone. Who said, he cant see… He was the only person who sees her through his eyes, his inner eyes.
