Chapter 30: chapter 30

Jamuni invited Jignesh, Pari, Jhilmil, Jogesh and Jamuna to her house for a get together. She wanted to have a family reunion after her son got married.Jhilmil felt a little awkward in front of Jogya but he hugged her and told her not to overthink about past as present is more important for anyone because it lays the strong foundation for the future.Jhilmil had tears in her eyes as she folded her hands and said, "Sorry" to her ex-husband Jogya.Jignesh entered the room with Pari with a serious look on his face. Jamuni asked him,"What happened Jignesh? Why are you looking so serious?"Jignesh looked at Pari who averted her gaze and took her seat on the dining table.After sometime Jamuna entered the room with a young and handsome man. She introduced him to everyone,"He is Shivam, my husband. We got married yesterday! Shivam this is Mrs.Jhilmil, my mother and Mr. Jogesh my father."Shivam asked her,"You told me that your mother had got married to your second father recently so where is your first father?""He is dead. My mother got married to her childhood friend after he got divorced from his first wife due to unresolved issues between them!" Jamuna told her husband.Jogya was shocked to hear such words coming from the mouth of his own daughter!His jaw dropped as he was too shocked to say something.Jamuni was furious as she told Jamuna,"Why are you lying to your husband and by the way you didn't even bother to inform your real father about your decision to get married to someone, forget about seeking permission for doing so!""Is her father still alive?" Shivam asked her."Yes, Shivam he is Jogya, her real father!" Jamuni told him while pointing at Jogya."Then why did you lie to me, you....!" Shivam stormed out of the room in anger.Jamuna told Jogya,"Are you really my father because I never saw you coming to my school or bringing toys for me like other father's used to do. I saw only Jogesh uncle taking care of me. Yes, I did the right thing by marrying Shivam and if he will give me divorce after finding out the truth about my biological father, then it will be your own fault, I wish you were really dead then I didn't have to lie to defend my mother's decision to get married to her true love. By the way, look who is asking me about informing her and her husband about my marriage, who herself did everything without informing anyone in this world! She had an affair with my father then ran away from her village when he told her that he would never elope with her, she killed his mother by going to the tiger's den, my mother conceived me with my father but she never received any love from him because she had brainwashed his mind! She came back to the village and snatched away my father and then without informing anyone, she got married to him, she divorced her first husband and chose to be a mother after an illegitimate relationship with another man, still she has the nerves to give me her sage like advice!"She stormed out of the house with Jhilmil and Jogesh who also agreed with her.Pari told Jignesh,"This is the reason why I asked you to stay at my parent's house after breaking all the ties with your mother as she might be a bad influence on our future children!"Jignesh left with Pari as he folded his hands as he said, "Sorry" to both Jamuni and Jogya.They knew that Jignesh was trying to save his marriage by not responding to the hateful remarks of his wife Pari about his loving mother.Suddenly, Jamuni felt a sharp pain in her head and she fell like an injured bird which falls from the sky, which is shot in the air by the hunter on the floor.Jogya took her to the hospital where Doctors told him that,"She is in the final stage of brain tumor. We have to take her for the surgery. Let's hope that everything goes well!"Jogya had tears in his eyes as he recalled the moments they had shared together!Jamuni's smile was visible in front of his eyes!He could never forget how she would laugh and cry like a little child. Her innocence was more beautiful than her maturity.He missed her touch on his body and the  effect it had on his soul.He remembered all the mischievous things they had done by being perfect partners in crime.He could never forget her as he knew that she could never forget him even after she died.Jogya knew that the end has come but he was not ready to let go of his true love to leave this mortal world all alone without her true love and best friend walking by her side!Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and he dropped his head like a lifeless body.He saw himself going out of his body and saw Jamuni also going out of her body.They both joined hands as they watched Doctors trying to revive both Jamuni and Jogya!They were light like feathers as they had unburdened themselves by leaving behind all the past baggage by forgiving their loved ones.They were happy to be with each other, as there was no one to point fingers at them or demand their love which was exclusive for their true love only!They were floating together like clouds float in the sky!They both were looking at each other like a pair of dove. They were going somewhere....Where love is sacred....Where friendship is beyond status...Where compassion is a virtue....Where lovers are not separated...Where proof is not given or asked for to prove love for someone...Where hearts are not broken by misunderstandings...Where lie is not needed as truth is not detested....Where bonds are selfless...Where magic is everywhere....Where love means pure innocence...Where love is selfless...Where there is no need to deceive and lie for love as love is available everywhere...In that far away world they both were going much faster than the speed of light when they were told by someone that, "Your Time has not come yet!"
