Part -6
Sakshi’s family resided almost around 350 Km away from our house which was another district however, I loved visiting their place . It was more of a town unlike our city it was calm and we had many fields, Their house was well constructed in an old fashion with a big veranda and many rooms they had 4 buffaloes , a cow and a dog. It was always fun.
Sakshi and family left after dinner, taking a promise that we would visit them on Next month as we all were invited to a wedding which was being organised near to their residence, this was the same wedding which everyone was discussing in the afternoon. It was sanskars cousins wedding.
That night while I was preparing for bed, Dad knocked the door and asked “”Hey doll can I speak to you for some time? ”
I replied opening the door “Of Course dad, what's it about ” dad walked in and sat on my study table while I went back to my bed and sat down curiously waiting to know what was it as dad always kept himself busy with his office and routines, rarely did he used to come to my room. We mostly had all our conversations at dinner table.
He thought for a while and then started “ I am not looking for a final answer from you sweetheart. However I need to know what you are thinking at least a smaller version of it. Look -You are our only daughter we would never want you to compromise on any of your options after all it’s your life and it’s all about your future.”
Alright I am getting the picture I hinted myself however I never felt this would go so dramatic. Still I was liking it.
Dad Continued “ Sanskar is a very good boy, Even his family is , Yes I agree, you may be facing situations where you may need to adjust and understand among your selves in future but surely he would be doing the same. I know it was all rushed in for you. We should've and we could definitely have planned better. However I wanted the best for you and so I never thought much on that aspect. Here All I want from you is to think before you answer”
“Ok Dad I understand that but, I need time to think.” I said wondering why wasn’t I talking about Sumit or answering a NO directly. This was the apt time.
“That’s Fine I am happy assuming, that you found him good enough to give a thought.” My dad prompted and started smiling.
I smiled back , however a part of me was stopping me to do so.
Dad said “Goodnight doll” and left me to sleep. “ Good night dad” I said closing the door behind him. Telling myself whatsoever I need to sleep I haven't slept last night. All I need the most now is a good night sleep.
However as soon I switched off the lights and wrapped myself in the blanket I started thinking about Sanskar and his contagious smile , I smiled back thinking he wasn’t actually bad at all, it was a hell good experience talking to him. All the while he was trying to make me comfortable and what did I do I couldn’t tell him the complete thing. Again it was the time of my confusion mode, which was all of a sudden, switched on and yelled at me why are you thinking about him. It's time to talk to Sumit…….. I still love him.
I grabbed my phone and checked my messages Sumit was appearing online I called him the ring was going really long and then the recoreded message said “The person you are calling is not accepting any calls at this moment” I tried for second , third and fourth time it alway ended the same way.
He was not picking up the call, I shouldn’t have even tried I felt. He would be thinking how desperate I am to talk to him. And he is ignoring me maybe he do not love me any more, And may be he feels I am a pathetic Ex girl friend who is irritating him. OK and in all of these confusion I have spoiled the mood of such a nice guy .“Sanskaar I am so sorry” I said
Ohhh I have screwed up everything I thought.
