In a place that’s too far to me now, a door was being opened. Not as dramatically as you want to think.
Reena: Hey Maniac! What’s up with the rat poison in your hand? Found some new friends?
Rakesh looks into Reena’s eyes with cold stunned and slightly scared stare.
Rakesh: No. [He paused for the enormity of what he was about to say ] I want to kill myself.
Reena: Hey Maniac! What’s up with the rat poison in your hand? Found some new friends?
Rakesh looks into Reena’s eyes with cold stunned and slightly scared stare.
Rakesh: No. [He paused for the enormity of what he was about to say ] I want to kill myself.
[Reena was shocked. She knew things has gone sour but never imagined that this day would ever show its ugly face. She has already lost all that she ever had and now, she could lose all that she ever loved. ]
Reena: [in a disgustedly worried tone] WHAT? Why are you doing this?
[She knew the answer but she had to ask]
Rakesh: Because all is lost, all is gone, all that I ever wanted you to have is … is… I just want to die. I don’t deserve this life, I don’t deserve this love, I’ve ruined it all and I’m the only one to blame.
[As much as Reena wanted to deny, all of it was true but so what. They loved each other. They both knew the risks and now they both has to face the consequences. Both, not just him but both, Reena thought]
Reena: So you will kill yourself? And leave me all alone? What will you gain from this? What will I profit from this?
Rakesh: Me! I will get nothing but peace. You! You still have a chance at everything. You’re young. Your parents might take you back, get you married to someone of your type, someone who can keep you happy. Someone who’s not me.
Reena: [Now sickened at the thought of another man touching her] HOW DARE YOU! How dare you think of such things? Who are you to decide who keeps me happy? Who are you to plan my fate? I made the decision. We made the choice. We accepted this as our destiny COME WHAT MAY! And if you’re such a chivalrous person, why didn’t you drink that already? Waiting to put on a show for me? A finale?
Rakesh: [in a voice that felt too soothing for comfort] I tried. But couldn’t.
Reena: WHY NOT?
Rakesh: because I just couldn’t figure one thing.
Reena: [now almost in tears] and what is THAT?
Rakesh: [looked deep into Reena’s eyes, sensed her every breath… felt her skin even though they were afar] Why do I love you so much?

Divya: What’s up dumbo? Why are you so lost? Thinking about your problems again, eh?
Dipen: Na, Just wondering something.
Divya: What? Tell Me.
Dipen: Do you love me?
Divya: Hmmm! Haven’t given it a thought yet.
Dipen: Well, now would be a good time. Right?
Divya: Well, yeah but what if I give it a thought and I figure out that it’s now what you want.
Dipen: How do you know what I want?
Divya: So you’re not hoping that I’m madly in love with you?
Dipen: I would prefer to answer that once you’ve answered my question.
Divya: Oh REALLY! I’m sorry to say but my answer actually depends on what you would have answered.
Dipen: So shall we call it a tie, then?

Reena: WHAT! What do you mean?
Rakesh: When I see this bottle, this poison. I see the end, I see the life that I’ve lived and all I remember are the ones I’ve loved and all my memories have you in them.
Reena: I don’t understand.
Rakesh: Neither do I. I want to die for you but you’re the reason I can’t.
Reena: I …. I… [speechless]
*****
Divya: Can’t you decide on a thing?
Dipen: If I do decide, won’t you still make me change my decision if it’s not to your liking,
Divya: Ofcourse. It’s my duty to keep a dumbo like you safe from the your own stupidity.
Dipen: and why is that?
Divya: Because… Because… [speechless]
*****
Reena: I don’t know how to say this.
Rakesh: Say what?
Reena: How to say how much you love me. You’ve spent every single day calling me on my phone. Changing your whole career path just so that we can spend some time. When still we didn’t have time, you quit yours. Left your high paying job just so that at the end of the night when I get back home, we’re together. You’re a live-in husband just because of the love you have me. You didn’t lose it all; you just decided I was better. If you can’t understand this, then who can? I don’t care for the future, if you’re not in it. No one has and ever will sacrifice as much as you have for me. Now you make me wonder, do I love you enough?
*****
Divya: Because, you’re hopeless. You’re unimaginably arrogant. You can’t pick a tie but call yourself a fashion icon. You can’t dance but call you’re self a break dancer. You have no ability, no capability, no talent and no aptitude. All you have is you. No one else can even stand you. And then you dare to ask me if I love you? NO I DON’T! I pity you. You are a lonely bastard and I felt sorry for you. That was the only reason I ever even decided to be around you. You know nothing about women. Heck you know nothing about humanity. You’re an imbecile and filth. You do not deserve a life and you do not deserve to be loved. . If it was up to me decide you’re faith, I’d hand you a poison and watch you drink it.
Rakesh: When I see this bottle, this poison. I see the end, I see the life that I’ve lived and all I remember are the ones I’ve loved and all my memories have you in them.
