She committed mistakes in order to save me not hers. I never thought even in my wildest dreams that i too can get a home. She has been living with me from past two months and nobody knows as she is a writer who travels a lot. I met with an accident and she saw me in the hospital.
She couldn’t believe it was me after all those seven years. All she had for me was unstoppable tears due to the love which still existed in her heart. As i came back to my stable condition, my doctor Ekansh narrated the whole story and the line i remembered from her side was- AGAR ISKO BACHANE K LIYE KHUD KO BHECHNA BHI HOGA TO HUM WO BHI KAR DEGE ABHI.JUST SAVE HIM… She has given her right kidney with some bottles of blood too.
In those two months, she took care of me exactly like a mother does which includes my office work also. She had talked with my boss and requested him not to stop my monthly income. She worked harder during that period despite her own pain.
She balanced my life life but all i returned to her was hate….. I failed to understand her. Today while I’m standing outside her hospital door, i realise how much wrong I did to her in her life. I hated her, crossed all boundaries while talking with her, left her like a piece of shit. I’m unable to engulf this. I need to apologise to her but i can’t even open the door.
I can see all machine are attached to her due to her cancer. Now, when I look back to those memories i feel her rightness, how beautifully she handled me, my weakness, my anxiety.
Alas now i feel more her last lines – NOBODY IS BAD IN THE WORLD, IT’S ALL A MATTER OF PERCEPTION WE SEE. I saw how hard she struggled for her breath while leaving me outside the door…
