“Main aapko aise hi humesha apne paas rakhungi.”
“Aise pakad ke?”
“Haan, aise pakad ke!” She mimicked him, lightly hitting her forehead on to his.
“Aur aise kyun?”
“Nahi rakha aur wo le gaye aapko mujhse dur to?”
He pulled himself a little away, just enough to be able to look at her. “Wo? Kaun wo?”
“Humari kismat jise hum dono saath kabhi pasand nahi aaye. Aapki 1921 wali soch jo, I admit, ki shaadi ke baad abhi tak humare beech nahi aayi hai lekin aa to sakti hai. Aur…”
“Aur?” Anticipated to listen more, he raised his brow.
“Aur meri yaadasht, AVM. Aren’t you noticing how often I am forgetting things lately? Kabhi main aapko hi bhul gayi to? Isiliye… main aapko aise hi rakhungi… apne paas. Humesha.”
He hummed, surprising her with his reaction.
Bummed out, she shifted back in her place.
“Are! What was that?” He rolled his eyes at the way she roughly pulled her hands down his neck.
“Aapko koi farq hi nahi padta na, AVM. Kaha mujhe laga tha ki aap thode upset hoge, thode emotional hoge… kuch romantic sa kahenge but look at you… You just don’t care if I forget you, do you?”
“I don’t!”
Her mouth fell open at his straightforward refusal, making her clench her fist and land it straight on his shoulder. “Naam Teen Banda Mean!”
“Naam Teen Banda Mean hoon main? Soch lo. Shayad jo main abhi kehne wala hoon wo sunke tumhe regret na jo jaye!”
She turned her face away. “Not in this lifetime!”
“Let’s see!” He bit back his smile, not letting her annoyed face that he found utterly adorable distract him.
“I don’t care if you forget me, Ishqi! We don’t know what happens when. I will not not consider the possibility that you’ve raised. I don’t care if you forget me because long as my heart is beating, it will always recognize its companion. If at all you forget me, I’ll meet you and make you fall for me all over again!”
“Par mujhe to aap yaad hi nahi honge na? Agar nahi hua mujhe aapse firse pyaar to?”
“Your mind might try to make you to walk away from me but your heart,” he murmured, holding her hand and placing it near her heart, “your heart will always make you run back to me.”
Run
Back
To
Me!

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.Â
Lovely
