The Love I Lost Forever! -A Sad Love Story
Wikram’s eyes
followed Sonam, as she walked passed, with her usual clique of friends. He
couldn’t have looked away even if he had forced himself to. He couldn’t have
slowed his frantically beating heart. He couldn’t have shooed away the
butterflies dancing in his belly. His reaction for her presence was immediate
and involuntary. He just couldn’t help himself.
“Dude, no.
Not again. Please tell me you’ve given up trying to get that girl.”
Wikram glared
at his friend next to him, whose existence he had momentarily forgotten.
“What do you
think that I should do to win her? She doesn’t believe that my love is true.”
He was
heartbroken and stung by her continuous rejection of his love. He was desperate
enough to do anything for her, just to make her believe how much she was worth
for him.
“Wik, the
only thing you are left with giving her is your life! And she definitely isn’t
worth of it. Give it up man. It’s time to let go.”
His friends
didn’t understand his feelings. There was something about Sonam that attracted
him with a force like gravity. It wasn’t her beauty, he was certain. She is not
an ‘intoxicating beauty’: with model-height, size zero, straight, shiny hair
out of a shampoo advertisement, or with clear, spotless skin. Her hair is a
mass of curls, and she has freckles on her nose, which made her adoringly cute
for Wikram.
He had tried
explaining her how much he loved her and how much he would treasure her. When
she didn’t understand, he tried showing her how much he meant what he said.
He would wake
up before dawn, which he hadn’t done ever since he was in highschool, and would
shower and shave to look presentable. As she refuses rides from him, he would
go upto her bus stop daily and ensure she safely arrives at College. In the
evening too, he would follow her bus and drive all the way to her home.
Last
valentine, he bought fresh bouquets of her favourite black roses and decorated
the entire locker room! He even sang a song for her, at the college ‘Valentine
Musicale’. He had looked at her from the stage, knelt down, and told her that
the song was dedicated for her. She had been quite taken aback with his
performance as the entire college gave him a lasting ovation. But that was all.
She was indifferent to him.
He wasn’t
filthy rich like some of his friends, but by using his savings from part-time
gigs, he was able to buy her a Rolex wristwatch on her birthday. But she had
refused to take it. She even tore up the greeting card he had spent hours
making. The rejection hurt more than he could imagine.
Today they
were graduating and then they’ll be gone on their separate ways. He has been
having high hopes for this day. He had thought Sonam would finally accept him
as it is their last day at College. But his hopes went down the drain when she
rejected him on this morning too. He felt desperate and utterly hopeless to
imagine a future without Sonam. His friend was right. He really had nothing
more to give her or show her to prove his love.
Sonam saw
Wikram from the corner of her eyes, as she walked passed him. She noticed him way
too much than she was willing to accept. As the days went by, his broad
shoulders and straight jaw made him look more handsome in her eyes. His efforts
to prove his love, has got her and her friends hyped up. They would daily come
up with what he might do next to win her. And everything he did, made her beam
with pride. She had never even dreamt of being loved this much!
She had
started developing feelings for him over time. Finally it sank-in that she
loved him. Several times she had thought of accepting his love, but she hadn’t.
She hadn’t even told her friends about her feelings towards him. She wanted to
see how far he would go to show her how much he loved her.
” I think
I’ve fallen in love with Wikram. ” As Sonam finally drew up enough courage and
accepted it, her friends stopped talking. Stopped giggling. They stared at her
with their jaws dropping open.
The silence stretched
from seconds to minutes. ” Aren’t you guys gonna tell anything? ”
“Why didn’t
you tell us? Why were you pretending to hate him? “Asked Laila.
” I don’t
know. I just wanted to see how far he would go to show me his love. We were
enjoying a lot right? But since today’s the last day, maybe I should tell him
that?”
” Son, you
could have just told him that, way before. I don’t like to think that you’ve
lead him on. For God’s sake Sona, why did you reject him this morning too!
Didn’t you see the pain on his face?”
All her
friends nodded in agreement and she started feeling guilty. It was obvious how
far he would sacrifice for her. What kind of a guy would drive his car all the
way to her home just to make sure she is safe? What kind of a guy would be bold
enough to go in public and sing songs for a girl? These things mostly happened
only in movies. If he had the courage to do it in reality, he was truly a guy
worth loving for an eternity.
She had been
a fool. An utter fool. She hadn’t thought of how badly she’d hurt him. Every
rejection would have hurt like daggers. She was suddenly overwhelmed with
emotions and ran in search of Wikram. She must tell him now. She must tell him
she loves him too. First, she must find him.
She ran to
the auditorium where everyone was busy preparing for the graduation. He was
probably there, as he was the Head Organizer. She saw all of his friends but
not him and none of them had seen him in more than an hour. Her heart skipped a
beat. He would have probably gone to the rest room, she thought.
He wasn’t
there in restrooms, cafeteria, sports auditorium, and even in the library. By
the time she reached the car park to make sure he hadn’t left, she was panting.
To her relief, it was there. So he had to be somewhere inside the college.
She searched
the locker rooms, the study halls, and again the auditorium with the hope that
he would’ve returned. But he hadn’t.
Suddenly
there were loud screams coming from the rooftop of the auditorium. Everybody
rushed up to see what was wrong. By the time Sonam reached the scene, there
were blood stains everywhere. It didn’t take long to realize whose they were
for he had written ‘ I love you Sonam’ from his own blood. Tears streaming down
her face, she searched for him.
“Idiot! That
idiot slit his wrists and jumped! He killed himself! Idiot!” She heard his best
friend scream from the top of his lungs, before her world blacked out.
