The Wish - Part 2

[link: - Part 1 (click on it to read part 1).]

"It's sweet of you, but why are you thanking me?", I wanted to know how did I change somebody, though it's a real difference.

"It's your innocent wish," said Megha, with a beautiful smile, this made me ambivalent about her changed behavior. As it looked healthy but it was anomalous given the fact that I never told her anything about my wish, In fact, I don't even remember which wish is she talking about.

"my wish? which Wish are you talking about?" I could tell that she venerates me from her body language, but I was curious.

"I know you have many questions, would you like to have an ice-cream with me in the park?" she asked in my style, copying my accent and tone. I almost fell for her again seeing her copying me so cutely. "haha you are funny, I wish you stay happy forever Megha! May..". She stopped me "Shhhh!, now please listen to me, I'm going to tell you something which might be tough for you to understand, but you will eventually experience it", "what is it Megha?".

"....(long pause)... I love you too." , I was mesmerized hearing this from her. She continued talking "I was cursed by a woman whose son died because of my immature rudeness. He once proposed me; I thought he was just trying to hit on me, and I rudely told him to get lost from my life forever, and he left the room with a smile and committed suicide that night. His mother's acrimony for me increased in such levels that she cursed me doing some black magic which involved sacrificing herself, her curse was that I will never smile or be happy unless an innocent soul like his son will actually love me and wish good for me. But I will die right after 10 days after that"Listening to this my tears came out, I just got her and our time is already set to 10 days. She is such a cute little girl, thinking about losing her forever made me dead inside. I was crying inside. I wanted to hide her in my arms forever. She continued after a drop of tear.

"I would have kept my feelings about you inside for at least a month and made you run behind me like every other girl, but I have only 10 days. I can't even do that Varun! ... (with a smile along with tears)... btw after I am dead please marry a beautiful girl and be loyal to her", her eyes were wet, but she had a big smile on her face.

"Don't say that Megha, I won't let you leave me alone; I can't love any other girl. Where will I find a weird girl like you? That old lady used black magic is there anything we can do to counter that?", the situation was so involved that her ingenuous eyes made me think of doing anything to remove that stupid black magic from her. "Tell me Megha, if you love me truly then no matter what it is, you have to say."

"You left me no choice. Since you are like his son, only if you will come with me in the forest. And perform a ceremony tonight at the place she performed the black magic, I shall be freed from this curse. I don't want to put you in any risk, please forget it, I want to live with you feeling your breath till my death". I hugged her "Megha, no matter what, I will save you."

Till evening, we decided to live life to the extent possible. I felt like I am in heaven with her, I didn't know I could fall in love with someone so soon, it was like we knew each other from our past birth. We were scared, but I made up my mind and made her agree to perform that ceremony.

That night as planned, I slowly jumped off the window unnoticed. We met near the Jungle; she was scared. I don't know from where I got so much strength that I was ready to face anything for her.
