Forsaken Memories

Part 4 : Time for truth?

" It's a new day, it's Christmas today", Saran's father exclaimed, " I've prepared breakfast for both of you, taste how it is made. "

We wished each other and started having breakfast. I was thinking of Saran's uncanny behaviour while we got to know about his father evening plans with his friends. He felt Saran's soreness and comforted him that it was just a matter of time , he would be here soon. Evening starts with dazzling view of snow white all around. The captivating site of calmness surroundings stolen my heart. The house decore with sparkling stars were shining as shone in the sky. Alas, it once more time, I got slip out of mind that the thick black clouds hid those glowing stars.

" What are you looking at, Advait? ", asked Saran, standing next to me.

" Nothing just, like you I'm trying to befriend of the surroundings ", I replied.

" What? ", he astonished and smiled.

" Yes, I also want to relate my relationship with every particle of this beautiful nature , want to share my happiness and every pain through my vision with them. "

" That's nice, but there's a problem, no one else can feel the world better than me. "

" That's true, so start, I want to hear again. "

" Sure? "

" As sure as today is Christmas "

" All right, so this for Christmas and my Love.

Let this Christmas be a celebration of love.
Christmas is where you are -- the chimes, the snow, all make a setting for a heart aglow.
My love for you is like a  christmas wreath, it has no beginning and will know of no end.
The world sharing tender love with adorable gifts, but here I want one from you.
The best gift ever, Infiltrated my heart
I plan to keep you always. Forever to start.
The sparkling stars , the brightening moon, the glowy snow, the blazing bonfire, the charming tree and the roar of beautiful song
I want everyone to witness this moment.
I love you , Advait. "

Shocker! Shocker for me. I stunned, such a big thing I heard, as if the heart was about to rip the body, beating so fast. Saran kneel down, getting his hand out of pocket raise holding a ring, constantly looking at my eyes.

" Will you marry me? ", he proposed.

The ring! Yes , that ring. The fear I had been carrying with me for so long was over, but now what would happen next, not let me speak anything. I lost my ability to think and kept on looking him. He extended my hand and started fitting the ring. I stopped.

" I'm sorry " , I said sorely.

" You should answer yes or no ", he replied.

I kneel down, stop and hold his hand. " I was about tell you , Saran but each time something happened that stopped me from telling you . I apologize for this. I know, I 've done wrong. "

He started laughing like someone intensely heartbroked and it just blow out his mind. Started applause, lauaghing madly. His anguish made me astonished, never expected this before. What should I do in this critical situation, how to handled the things. I keep on apologising  to him.

" It's OK! ", he said.

" No it's not! I know this hurts you. ", I tried to hug me but he didn't.

" I said it's ok, no ", he provoked , " You made a mistake. You apologize. Now finish everything."

He was so fed up with all that he locked himself in his room. Shattered emotions can be brought back, but the broken heart can't, it always leave their marks. This time the cracks are not the door which stood between us, this is the truth of our life which never let this heal. I tried hard to console him and to get one chance to explain but all gone void. The wound was fresh, it needed time to overcome. We were both sitting opposite sides of the door, helpless.
