Chapter 42: Chapter 42

I was crying literally couldn't stop it. I cupped my face with the palm and the tears moistened my palm fully. At this moment, I was very obvious that the wedding was under full speed process and I was taking very slow steps. My inner mind is giving me zero hope about marriage. I felt that this marriage would happen as planned. There were only a few remaining days and I can't do anything as Janu was in blind love.

When I think about Akshadh, my heart is aching. I knew Akshadh would face the same pain. Love may be unpleasant sometimes. Love has the power to kill oneself alive. Love is not lovely always. Love gives the worst pain too.

I heard footsteps at the end and I turned back guessing Madhan. He came to me and his face changed seeing my tears again. He was a nice person to me from my childhood like Janu. Even today, leaving his project work he was with me.

Madhan prompted after reading my face for a minute, he knew I was desiring to share a lot of words to him but I was blank to commence with, "Dhiya, don't worry. If your love is strong the universe will unite you and Akshadh. Now, the whole situation is against you and him. Let's see the drama of destiny,"

I wiped away the tears hearing his hopeful words, "I hope so undoubtedly Akshadh will come to me but what if I do, if he got married to Janu. my God! Please tell me any other way to convince and stop this,"

"Dhiya, Janu was obsessed with Akshadh Please, understand that clearly. She won't listen, anyone," he said in short.

"What if she came to know that I was in love with Akshadh? Will she consider it? How can I allow to spoil her life? Akshadh can't give her happiness even If he married her. How is the way to make her understand?" I asked spontaneous questions that were roaming in my head.

"She never considers even if she came to know that you are his love. She was not ready to hear anything about him. She was in a thought that there is a life and love after marriage. You are right, as far as I see Akshardh, he can't give her happiness or wife status. Definitely, she would spoil her life and will regret later," said madhan.

"Nope, this shouldn't happen Madhan. Janu shouldn't regret later. Is there any possible ways to help her indirectly?" I asked him

"Dhiya, you are disturbed. The fact is you can't help neither yourself nor Janu,"

"Hmm," I moaned.

"I knew you want Akshadh to be with you and at the same time you are feeling guilty for Janu,"

I was filled with tears "Yes, you are right. I was in between Janu's happiness. Janu was filled with marriage dreams and thoughts. She was not able to give attention to me. Even, if I didn't love Akshadh and If I came to know that he was in love with some other, I would definitely inform to Janu as I did and even I will go one step forward by informing her parents to save Janu's life. Now, I was in her way so I couldn't inform her parents also she was not at all listening to anyone as love blinds her completely,"

He showed a small smile.

"You knew everything that every way was halted then still love makes you fight. Dhiya, will you listen to me?"

"Okay,"

"At now you can't do anything against this marriage. If you try to do you would lose your self-respect in front of your family. Everyone will degrade you for loving Akshadh without knowing the fact. Finally, you couldn't stop this marriage too. I feel taking a step in your side is not good at this time instead wait for your love."

I cried again.

"Don't cry Dhiya. This is the fact,"

I looked at him with tearful eyes.

"Also, you are in no ways to feel guilty for Janu. You are absolutely right. She is not listening, it is her mistake and not yours. So please stop thinking about her. Let us wait either Janu quit this marriage by herself or Akshadh will come to you,"

I felt Madhan was right. He will think broadly when it comes to me. I was going to obey his words madly.

"Ok Madhan," I said wiping away my tears.

Janu's POV

I was embarrassed hearing Dhiya's statement regarding Akshadh but I don't bother. I knew, I was wrong in my way but I can't do anything against me as I love him madly. He was my life and I can't leave him in any dilemma. Let me slowly change him by my love after our marriage.

I have purchased my costumes and accessories for my wedding. I was looking at it with stabilized eyes and a powerful imagination was enveloping me regarding our wedding. Only a week more for the wedding and I was lying in my bed thinking randomly about the wedding.

I was so curious to talk to my husband. I knew he sounds bad hearing my voice but it was not a matter to me. Let me at least listen to his voice. What if he shouts at me? Tears may fill my eyes and long for his love. I sighed. Anyways, I wished to hear his voice either he shouts or listens.

I just imagined how it would be if my husband talks sweetly to me. A smile invaded in my lips and it curved beautifully end to end.

I choose his number and gave a call. I guessed right he didn't pick up my call.

Okay, let me call Aunty. I called her and she picks up the call.

"Janu Bahu (daughter in law), How are you?" She asked from the other side. I could hear the disturbance in her place.

"I am fine aunty, how is your health?"

"Not bad, Janu," I could guess she is not well. Her voice didn't match her usual tone when I asked about her health.

"Maa, Are you okay with health?" I asked again.

"Yes, Janu." I signed. I knew she is hiding her pain.

"Janu, you called me at the right time. Tell me the colour of the wedding saree you dreamt for,"

"Anything, Akshadh's wish aunty," I said happily.

She didn't reply for few seconds, "Janu, I have selected ....,I was not sure whether it fulfils your likes....," She said hesitatingly. Now I understood the meaning behind her silence. Akshadh didn't even select my wedding attire.

"Okay Aunty, no problem. I am happy that you have selected for me," I said happily but still tears occupied my eyes.

"We are very lucky to have you Janu. I was waiting for your entry in our home. A week is there, counting days," she said merrily.

I chuckled, "Where is Akshadh? Did he purchase his dresses?" I asked curiosity mixed tone.

"Yes, Janu. He gave his selection to his brother as he was busy in the hospital,"

"Oh...."

"Did he is available there?"

"Yeah, 100 years to my son!!! Akshadh came to pick us," she giggled

"Okay, give your phone to him aunty please," I almost begged because I was dreaming to hear his voice and I am sure he won't scold me in front of his mom.

I could hear his voice from apart and aunty was struggling a lot to make him speak and finally,

"Hello," his voice from the other side. It was neither rude nor soft. I was smiling literally hearing his voice.

"Akshadh, Didn't you select our wedding costume?"

He sighed from another side. I could hear his heavy exhaling breath.

"Akshadh, please don't avoid me. Is loving you a sin? I was in love with you madly. I love you. I love you. I love you and 100's of longing kisses. I love you. I will look after you caringly, why don't you understand me and my love?"
