"STORY OF AN UNHEARD VOICE"
“Give me a break, Shweta. Why the hell should I memorize your number? It’s stored in my mobile. You know it’s quite difficult for me to remember anything” shouted Sanjeev
“What will happen if you lose the mobile?” she asked.
“Come on, you both have lot of common friends. Can’t he get your number from someone? Leave all that, everyday you send each other hundreds of e-mails. He can pick it up from the mail signature. Don’t find fault with him.” shouted her Inner voice.
“I need not reply to all these silly questions..” he shot back to her.
“No Sanjeev. She hates this kind of reply. You know her well. She just wants you to listen to her & do something for her. Tell her you will give it a shot .” shouted his inner voice.
They both were silent and staring at the sea.
Sanjeev & Shweta are colleagues. They did their graduation from the same college and recruited by the same company. It was only during their induction, they realized their love for each other. Their love is almost two year old now. Off-late they are having lot of fights & patch ups.
“Come on …speak something to her..” Sanjeev’s inner voice told him
“She is the one putting up all silly demands. Why should I speak now?” he argued.
“Speak to him. Look he is getting angry “said her inner voice grabbing her attention.
“He thinks I’m silly. Why should I talk to him?” she fought back
Silence was hanging heavily between them. Neither was ready to budge from their stand.
“Shall we start?” Sanjeev asked breaking the silence.
“You stupid! What’s the hurry to start now? She is going to think you don’t like spending time with her” scolded his I.V
“Okay.” She replied
“Let me drop you at your P.G” he told her staring his bike
“At last you said something that would please her.” His I.V whispered to him
“No. I will take an auto. “ Shweta replied
“Why are you doing this? He drops you back everyday right? Go with him” directed her I.V
“Don’t support him, He doesn’t like to spend time with me nowadays why should I go with him? “She argued back with it.
“Okay” he replied
“Sanjeev. Ask her why she wants to take an auto. She is very upset now. Don’t let this turn into another big fight…Please” pleaded his I.V
“Why should I go behind her every time, even though she does a mistake? No I won’t” he resisted.
She took an auto & went to her P.G. He went back to his place. She hasn’t sent a message or called him. He was feeling bad now.
“Send her a sorry message. Things will be back to normal. “instructed his I.V
“Sorry?? What mistake did I do? I’m just going to send her a casual message that’s it” he countered.
He typed a message “Hi, Had dinner?” ignoring the “You are hopeless” whisper of his I.V
She saw the message & thought for a second.
“He is trying to make things better. Start talking with him normally.” Her I. V advised her
“No, I’m angry with him. He’s rude with me nowadays. I want at least a sorry from him…” she reasoned out.
Yes I had. She replied to his message.
Look at her. She can’t even type an extra word or appreciate my efforts. She’s totally impossible. All she wants is my complete attention. Why the hell I should bend for her every time? He threw away his mobile and went to bed.
She waited for further message from him. Can’t he understand what am I thinking? Why he is he so difficult these days? He is not the same person anymore. She went to bed with tears in her eyes.
They both ignored a voice screaming “Can you please listen to me? You are making a mess out of nothing”
