“Tumhara dimag kharab hai? Wo kya tumhare dost hai jinse jhagda kar rahi thi? Gunde the wo, bevkoof ladki! Knives, rods, guns… sab tha unke paas aur tum fir bhi… Agar main waqt par nahi aata to? Kuch bhi ho sakta tha, Ishqi. Khud ke liye nahi to kam se kam mere liye hi apna khayal rakh liya karo. Itna mushkil hai? De deti na jo bhi maang rahe the.”
“Nahi de sakti thi.”
“Kyun?”
“Kaha na…” Wiggling in his grip, she tried to move away but he didn’t let her. “Bas nahi de sakti thi.”
“Bag dikhao. Dikhao kya hai aisa isme jo tumhare liye itna important hai,” he held by her arm while pulling her bag to himself, “dikhao mujhe maine kaha.”
Right as her bag was in his hold, he let go of her. As he looked inside, he could see nothing significant that she wouldn’t mind risking her life for. Just as he was about zip the bag up, his gaze caught something familiar.
‘Dammit! She did that for that ring.’ He let out an inward sigh, pulling out the silver ring out of her bag.
He held the ring in front of her. “Iske liye? Ishqiii… De deti na. Waise bhi kaha keemti thi…” He softly chided.
“Depends ki aap keemat kis basis pe laga rahe hai. Paiso me shayad kafi sasti hogi par jazbaaton me… isse mehengi koi cheez nahi hai, AVM. In fact… ye cheez hi nahi hai. Ye aapki feelings hai jo mere liya shayad aap nahi jaante kya maayne rakhti hai. Pehla gift hai aapka. Main nahi de sakti thi. Aur waise bhi aap bekar hi tension le rahe hai. Mujhe self defense aata hai. Kuch nahi hota aur agar ho bhi jata to… thik hai. Par ye ring… main nahi de sakti thi.”
Tears threatened to spill down his eyes. Was this woman for real? He was sure that she wasn’t. Who does that?
That ring was the first gift he had bought for her. His company had been facing losses back then. That plain simple ring was all that he could afford for her but she had been ecstatic upon receiving that.
She hadn’t cared about money back then. She didn’t care about money even now. It had been years. He had gifted her far more expensive jewelleries but that ring still stayed her favorite.
“Kaise mil gayi tum mujhe,” he murmured, engulfing her in a warm hug.
Kaise
Mil
Gayi
Tum
Mujhe?

This is a random piece of fiction. Absolute imagination. Kind of a random mini tale based on the picture on the characters named Ishqi and Aahan from the show Ishk Par Zor Nahi.
Aww..So Sweet!
