LOST
gosh I cannot look at him… if I cant surely Swapna can never … the ward boys
were making it really fast to the operation theatre but I was sure he will not
be able to make it … but still somewhere my heart was not able to admit it…
Swapna didn’t knew that he is in such bad condition infact she didn’t knew that
he has met with such a terrible accident;
whether to tell Swapna about all this or leave her with the piece of knowledge
she had; Swapna who posted a photo of him with a message that read : “hey
fellas all you out there this is my boyfriend
who went on to cover the Ganges in Haridwar, went missing along with his
reporter friend please help me find him, neither his phone is working nor he
has contacted, I request you to please share this post as much as you can and
request everyone you know to share it so that it reaches to each and everyone
and I can get some news about this silly guy who went missing without even
thinking of me”,
heart took me back to our college:
never had a girlfriend but it was not like that I never wanted to have one, we
formally got introduced, Swapna being from a convent school was good in
everything be it studies, way of communication, anything/everything. I and
Swapna were in the middle of conversation about the things that brought us here
to engineering, suddenly this boy with long brown hairs and whitish complexion
came upto me held me from my coller raised me from my seat and yelled at me
her or talk”
that I am your girl…. Bugger off ..
or your feeling I just wan to have you both as my friend .. sorry if I hurt
you..
you can never be my friend, leave him and don’t ever show me your face again
our class got over we all were asked for the lunch where girls and boys were
had different different sections. Girls went their side and we boys were forced
in a smaller space to avoid any kind of ragging activity we were given lunch an
hour before the scheduled time of the college. The same long haired guy came to
me,
being ragged by the seniors and they pointed at you since you were the only guy
sitting with the girls being a hosteller I had to obilige them, and please do
forward my apology to your friend as well.
respect for Anuttam. I forwarded the same message to Swapna, but she refused to
listen anything regarding Anuttam. So I thought of better leaving it and
thought of moving ahead.
and Anuttambecame bestg of the friends but I was never able to bring them both
on the same platform. If I would ever plan to go out hanging with both of them,
earlier or the latter had an excuse. So I had to settle down with the one only
either Swapna or Anuttam. Life was moving smoothly till Girish a friend of Anuttamsaid something that
was inappropriate for Swapna and Anuttamwas standing that moment with him.
platform, but you know what Sameul he
can never match upto my level.
you.
it very seriously, there was I think nothing that serious.
doesn’t like them than that’s not my headache, ask her to change her ‘chasma’
about you.. Anuttamobliged me
are a friend of sameul that doesn’t gives you the right to say anything about
me on my back..
you don’t have the right to cross your limits
what if a guy in this college with full erection takes your name his penis
looks up curses him and goes on a holiday for the next 2 weeks.
from this college
apologise and this is how you apologise I interrupted them
when you were not here
centre of corridor.
and that curve of smile which was because of those memories lost somewhere and
I enquired nurse about Anuttam, she handed over a piece of paper saying they
are trying their best and asked to bring those medicines as fast as I can. I
followed, brought the medicines from the gap between the doors (which nurse
opened to take medicines) I looked at him all the pipes were inserted inside
his body some in his veins some in mouth. I was now sure that Swapna will not
be able to look at it. So I opted not to tell her till I get some good news.
since operation began but the doctors were not in the condition to give some
relief, the parents of Anuttamwere to be informed they too were waiting for my
call, already rang 10 times since the operation begun…. Finally, the light
outside operation theatre went green and team of doctors started coming out. I
enquired about him, after a discussion the senior doctor patted my back
him, 60% chances are he will make it and the rest is in the hands of god.
news. Mother of Anuttamwas since than sitting in temple and wishing for his
wellbeing, even my mother had arranged a fist for poors, this guy was full of
life anywhere he went he brought life to the moment. Even the post on fb by
Swapna had crossed over a thousand shares, sometimes I used to be jealous of
him, being so much loved by everyone.
to settle thing between them. Both apologised and we went on to become one
single group from 2 different. Before exams Swapna used to teach us both
sometimes I used to give it a miss reason being my gf but Anuttamnever did,
that brought them even closer, most of time they can be seen together and that gave
gossipmongers inside college a new thing to discus, whether they are couple or
not but I was sure till yet they were not.
& Anuttamwere all set to perform a dance number and as the performance came
to an end Anuttamwent on his knees and proposed Swapna, Swapna who was sitting in audience choose to
leave and there was one word that came out his mouth Shit! And I can understand
what was going on with him, he could not even stand, from behind I saw Swapna
coming with a rose in one hand and mic
in other, not only me but most of the college was surprised with this,she
tapped on his shoulder gave him the rose and gently kissed on his cheek;
can be heard except the sound of hands as they were hugging I borrowed a camera
from one of my colleague and stored the best moment of my best friends inside
it. They were the loveliest couple in college, they had everything one need to
complete a relationship. Their love was approved by respective families as
well. After college Swapna went for a corporate job and Anuttam applied for
photojournalist.
Anuttam, whether I had any knowledge about where he is, I said he went to cover
Ganges in Haridwar even she had this piece of knowledge but his phone went
unreachable. I advised her to be patient as he might have gone in some mobile
area and he can take care of himself.
also understandable there were riots in muzaffarnagar, the riots shook the
whole nation.
night I received a phone call from the sp city that my friend was the one too
got injured in riots and they are transferring him to AIIMS. I picked up my
keys and drove towards AIIMS and found him in this condition.
told them about him that he is stable now and the doctors will be able to give
their final call within 24 hrs only. They all came up in hospital.
Swapna but soon his organs started giving up first it was kidney, then liver
and we again were in a critical condition. The doctors team was again in the
operation theatre and same red light turned on. Within 10 mins of entering
operation theatre the team came out and they said sorry, they could not save my
friend.
Swapna went directly to his home without even uttering a single word. I
informed her of his last rituals, she didn’t respond.
kissed him on the stage with the message “no matter where you go, whether you
are with me or not but you will always be mine and remember only you had the
right to love me cuddle me, I loved you, I love you and will always do”
hands of death and Swapna lost it to
him… The girl who was make-up freak was fashionista has now started
living without makeup in simple plain suits ….. Love won my heart but LOST my
friends……
