As soon as Haseena hung up, Karishma decided to leave her house. She was confused and shocked when she heard Haseena's voice. It sounded hurt and pained. She realised something was terribly wrong.

Karishma- Kiara ham aate hain..darwaza laga lena..

Kiara- lekin kaha?

Karishma- Kaam hai bohot zaruri..aate hain..

She left the house and quickly drove off on her bike. She hoped in her heart that everything was fine but Haseena's condition didn't seem so. Was there any mistake from her side? Why did she sound so sad?

With these thoughts she reached the lake behind 4 quarters in less than 15 minutes. She got off her bike and walked down near the lake in search of Haseena. Karishma was relieved to see Haseena sitting on the grass but her posture seemed unusual. She was bent and was shivering. Karishma quickly made her way towards Haseena.

Haseena looked up as soon as she felt a tap on her shoulder. Karishma's heart shattered when she saw Haseena's face covered with tears. Her eyes still watered. Haseena quickly wiped the tears and composed herself.

Karishma- Kaa hua aapko Haseenaji? Aap theek toh hain? Aap ro kahe rahi hain? Kaa hua hai?

She asked desperately while cupping the other's face. But Haseena shoved her away much to Karishma's surprise.

Haseena- Hamne aapko baat karna ke liye bulaya hai.

Karishma- Haan..woh kariye lekin aap batayiye toh sahi aap ro kaahe rahi hain?

Haseena- Ham aapse kuch jawab chahte hain.. aur woh sach hona chahiye.

Karishma looked at her in shock and amazement. What was she upto?

Haseena (wiping her tears again)- Hamne kabhi bhi aapko uncomfortable feel karaya hai?

Karishma was stunned to hear that question. Why was she asking all of that? What has really happened?

Karishma- Aap yeh kaa puch rahi hain?

Haseena (sternly)- Hame jawab chahiye..

Karishma- Nahi..bilkul nahi..kabhi bhi nahi..ham aapke saath bohot comfortable feel karte hain..

Haseena- Aapko hamara saath accha lagta tha?

Karishma (confused and shocked)- Tha kyun Haseenaji? Abhi bhi lagta hai..magar aap yeh sab kahe pooch rahi hain?

Haseena- aapke dil me hamare liye kabhi jagah thi?

This made Karishma's breath stop. What did she say?

Karishma just looked at her in shock. Right words didn't seem to come to her. She had always ran away from confessions. But Haseena was demanding an answer with expectant eyes.

What could she say? That being with her made her forget everything? That Haseena's sight made Karishma crave for her even more? That her voice was the best music she ever heard? That Haseena's touch sent tingles down her spine? That her smile was Karishma's good luck charm. And That their proximity encouraged intimate thoughts in Karishma's mind?

Haseena smirked as she misunderstood the silence- Samajh gaye. Ham aapke liye kabhi maayne rakhte hi nahi the. Fine Karishma Singh. Ham samajhte hai..lekin aaj aap bhi sun lijiye..ham aapse pyaar kar baithe hain.. ♥️

She confessed looking directly into her eyes. Everything went numb for Karishma as she expected to hear more. Haseena sighed and looked down. She smiled to herself. She felt something heavy just leave her soul. Haseena lifted her head and again looked at Karishma.

Haseena- Sorry..hame pata hai aapko koi fark nahi padne waala. Lekin ham pyaar karne lage hai aapse..aur shayad pehle din se hi. Aaj hamne yaha aapko isliye bulaya hai taaki ham aapko bata sake ki....i think hame yeh sab band kardena chahiye..

Karishma was still numb and frozen at her place.

Haseena- Aap samajh rahi hain na? Ham nahi chahte hamare beech aur koi relationship ho..basically ek break up chahte hain aapse.

Karishma's eyes welled up. Her throat pained and her heart ached. What was she doing? Was she confused? Haseena just proposed her and the irony? She was breaking up with her? What the hell was going on?

Karishma (choking)- Aap..aap kaa kar rahi hain yeh? Hame kuch samajh nahi aa raha hai..

Haseena (smiling)- Ab sab sach bata hi diya hai toh ham ek aur baat bata dete hain.. Ham insecure the Karishma..ji..

Hamne jo itne waqt guzare ek saath,, sab fade hota chala jaa raha tha..ham aapse poochte hain aapne realise nahi kiya ki aap in kuch dino me hamse kitna door chali gayin?

Karishma couldn't reply. She was broken too. She couldn't absorb the situation.

Haseena (sighing)- Aap hamse kam milne lagi..batein bhi kam karne lagi..jab ham aapse milna chahte the, ap hame reject kar deti thi..

Agar aapko hame apnana hi nahi tha toh aap hamari zindagi me aayi hi kyun? Hamse aur dard nahi saha nahi jaayega Karishma Singh..im have gone through so much for someone i thought loved me back. But...

She stopped and gulped. A fresh layer of tears covered her eyes.

Haseena- but i think..yahi tak hai..bas Karishma Singh..ham yahi kehna chahte the ki lets end this. Abse ham dono ka raasta alag. I hope you won't mind.

Haseena got up, stumbled but regained her posture. Before she walked away she looked at Karishma one last time and said-

Haseena- shayad aap move on karlein..ham nahi bhool payenge aapko...

And saying so she left. Karishma sat there frozen. She recalled each and every incident till date. Their first date, to Mission, to Haseena's surprise visit, to an invitation, to night drive till this date. She realised that focusing on a single person had messed things up in their life. She didn't realise that she had been breaking Haseena's heart all this long.

Karishma was heartbroken.

Then she realised. She loved her. As the pain which Karishma was feeling was only to be felt when you loved somebody and they thought you were betraying them.

She felt so lonely even though she had everything by her side. The thought that she won't be able to meet Haseena,, she wouldn't accept it. It was extremely difficult. Karishma looked at the peaceful lake and asked herself- Do you understand her pain now?

Yes. Answered her heart.

Do you feel her pain now?

Very well.

Can you imagine her broken?

Never.

But you broke her. Came the voice.

Ham kabhi nahi chahte the ki woh hamari wajah se toote..she protested against her own voice.

Then you love her. For when in love, you can experience the pain one goes through, even when not really experiencing it.

Her heart was right. She was in love. But she kept denying up till date. But no more. A smile crept over her lips at the realisation. She quickly wiped her tears and rushed to her bike. She will confess her love. She will fix her broken heart. She will fix everything. She will love her till her last breath.

***********

Haseena slammed the door behind her and fell on the ground. Was being in love so difficult? Then surely she wouldn't have fallen in love in the first place! She tried to not cry but she couldn't hold herself. A fresh drop of tear escaped her eyes. And soon tears streamed down her cheeks. Breaking up was indeed painful.

It wasn't long that she heard loud banging on her door.

Karishma- Haseenaji darwaaza kholiye..hame baat karni hai aapse.

Haseena's tears stopped but anger filled her.

Haseena- nahi baat karni hai hame. Aap please jayiye. Ham akele rehne dijiye.

Karishma- please darwaaza kholiye..ham aapse baat kiye bager nahi jaayenge.

Haseena- Toh khade rahiye..ham nahi kholenge darwaza. Joh bolna tha bol diya hamne.

Karishma was determined. She wouldn't budge from that place unless Haseena opened the door. Haseena couldn't stop crying. Why was she here?

A loud crash attracted her attention. What was that? Her heart skipped a beat. It came from right outside her house. Was everything fine? More importantly was Karishma alright?

She quickly came out of her house to find that a car had crashed on a nearby street light. She turned around her head but the next moment, Karishma jumped on her and hugged her tightly. Haseena was shocked as well as a comfort rose in her heart. But..she tried to push her away. But Karishma wouldn't move.

Karishma- i am sorry..hamne aapko bohot pareshan kiya na? Hame maaf kardo.. hamne realise nahi kiya tha ki sab aisa ho jaega..

Haseena finally pushed her off and was about to go in her house but Karishma pushed herself inside too.

Haseena- Kya musibat hai? Ham nahi karna chahte baat aapse.

Karishma- Aap sun toh lijiye..

Haseena - Hamne kaha na..

Karishma- I love you..

Haseena stopped for a second but smirked the next instant.

Haseena- nahi Karishmaji..hamne aapko guilty feel karwane ke liye aur hampar taras khilake yeh karne nahi bola tha..

Karishma- Aap galat samjh rahi thi..aur ab hi samajh rahi hain..hame hamari baat poori karne dijiye.

She said and took Haseena's hands in hers.

Karishma- Aapko agar lag raha tha ki ham Kiara ko time de rahe the aur aapko ignore kar rahe the toh woh bohot galat hai.. Pata hai ham Kiara ke saath hote huye bhi sirf aapko dhundte the... Ham jab bhi bahar jaate the toh sirf aapki jhalak dikhti thi..kabhi kuch samajh nahi aay ki yeh sab ho kaa raha hai..lekin ab samajh aaya. Ham aaphiko dekhna chahte the isliye aap dikhti thi.. ab aap puchengu ki hamne aapko reject kyun kiya phir..voh isliye kyunki ham agar aapke saath hote toh sirf aapke saath time bitana chahte..naaki yeh chahte ki koi teesra hamare beech dakhal dey.

Haan hamari yeh sabse badi galti thi ki ham aapko time nahi de paaye. Hamne socha pehle Kiara se nipat le..baadme sirf aapko time denge..lekin hame nahi pata tha ki cheezen aisi ho jayengi..

Aur aap bhi kya? Hamse pooch toh sakti thi? Aap hamse keh deti ek baar ki aapko importantly aur sirf hamare saath time spend karna hai..aap bata deti ki aapko insecurity ho rahi thi..

Haseena ji..jaante hai bohot der ho gayi hai..lekin ham bhi aapse kehna chahte hain ki ham bhi aapse pyaar karne lage hai..bas samajhne me der ho gayi.. Jab aap hamse door jaane lagi..tabhi hame aapka dard samajh aaya.. aur ham maafi mangte hai isske liye..magar please hamse dur mat jayiye..ham apne pehle aur akhiri pyaar ko khona nahi chahte.. aur kisne kaha aap hamare liye maayne nahi rakhti? Aap bohot maayne rakhti hain hamare liye..

Haseena looked at her in bewilderment. This time, she was shell shocked and didn't have any replies for her. Haseena slapped herself mentally for not understanding Karishma's situation and behaving like an immature. But was contented in her heart as she realised love could make anyone immature.

Karishma leaned forward while holding onto Haseena's shoulders. Haseena understood what she was upto but didn't stop her. Let that be. She wanted this time to come soon.

Karishma closed the gap between them as she pressed her lips against Haseena's. The best feeling that she had in these days. Haseena pulled her by the waist and deepened the kiss. Closing their eyes, they enjoyed each others proximity and territory. ♥️

After a minute they broke the kiss and touched their foreheads.

Karishma (blushing)- Aap whamse ek waada kijiye..ki aap hamse aise chorke jaane ki bat kabhi nahi karengi..

Haseena- Ham aapse waada karte hain..aur ham bhi maafi mangte hai kyunki hamne aapki situation ko nahi samjha..

Karishma cupped her face and pecked on her cheek.

Karishma- Woh baatein choriye..Abhi par focus kijiye..ham khush hai ki hamari beech ki galat fehmiyaan dur ho gayi..

Haseena nodded and buried her face on Karishma's neck.

Haseena- Be mine Karishma Singh..♥️

She whispered pulling Karishma closer. Karishma wrapped her arms around Haseena tightly and whispered back with a big smile..

Karishma- I am always yours Haseena Malik..♥️
