(Guys, I know this book is on hold till 25 November but after this shot it will be on hold)

{This is a different kind of story. It's genre is somewhat paranormal type. Not fully ghostly but yet it cannot be called a pure fiction, it has somewhat paranormal.}

Anubhav was standing near Hassena's house as her engagement ceremony was going on. A teen girl was standing next to him.

"Toh vahi hai aapki Hassena ji?", The girl asked.

Anubhav looked at her, "Voh aab hamari nahi hai Siya. Aab voh kisi aur ki hone ja rahi hai"

"Par aapne toh kaha tha ki voh aapse pyaar karti hai. Toh fir voh kisi aur se shaadi kyu kar rahi hai? Meri Maa kehti thi ki saccha pyaar sirf ek baar hi hota hai. Aur mera maana hai ki agar dusri baar kisi aur se pyaar ho toh pehli baar jo pyaar hua voh saccha nahi tha...", The girl said.

A tear escaped his eyes. He tightly closed his eyes. The girl noticed this.

"Aap roh kyu rahe hai. Na hi aap unhe rok sakte hai na hi kuch aur kar sakte hai. Main yeh toh nahi jaanti ki voh aapse pyaar karti hai ya nahi par yeh jarur jaanti hun ki aap unse bohot pyaar karte hai, isiliye unki khushi mein khush bhi hai", the girl completed.

"Sach?", Anubhav asked.

"Ha!"

Two days later,

Hassena was with her new fiancee. Her Ammi had forcefully made her search for new partner. His name was Nadim. Today they were shopping for their upcoming wedding. All MPT members except Karishma were helping Hassena for shopping. But, Hassena was atleast smiling looking at their efforts but wasn't interested in shopping nor this marriage but she needed to be happy. She was happy with Nadim. He was a good person.

"Maddamsir, yeh lehenga aap ke upar bohot accha lagega", Santosh said adjusting the lehenga on her.

Hassena just nodded.

"Nahi Santu, yeh isse bhi accha lagega. Tum bhi dekho", Pushpa ji said.

Hassena suddenly noticed that Karishma wasn't there.

"Pushpa ji Karishma Singh kaha hai? Voh engagement vale din bhi kahi chali gayi thi na unke kisi pehchan vale ki tabiyat kharab hai", Hassena asked.

"Ha Maddamsir, unhone toh humse yahi kaha tha. Aab pehchan vali ki tabiyat kharab hai toh baad mein bhi toh mil sakte haina lekin nahi unhe toh usse din nikalna tha. Aab tak ghar nahi lauti", Pushpa ji said

"Aaisa bhi toh ho sakta haina ki voh sach mein pareshan ho isilye do din se ayi nahi hai. Aapne unhe phone kiya kya?"

"Nahi Maddamsir. Lalla ne kiya tha par unke bich mein kya baat hui hume nahi pata", Pushpa ji said.

"Thik hai koi baat nahi.", She said.

"Kahi hum kisi aur se shaadi kar rahe hai toh kahi issi vajah se toh voh humse naraj nahi hai. Pata lagana padega", Hassena thought.

"Are Hassena", Nadim shook her which made her come out from her trance.

"Ha?"

"Yeh Cheeta Bhaijaan ko dekho na. Kitni saari sherwani de di. Hum iss mein kaise choose kare. Aap hi madad kar dijiye na", Nadim said.

"Ji aapke upar toh koi bhi sherwani acchi lagegi. Koi bhi pehen lijiye. Hume na thoda kaam hai. Hum bill pay kar dete hai", Hassena said to Nadim.

"Pushpa ji, hum nikal rahe hai. Aap sabhi bhi ghar chale jana", Hassena said to Pushpa ji.

"Par achanak kya hua?"

"Kuch nahi Pushpa ji, hume ek kaam hai", Hassena said and left the place.

-----------------

She halted the car infront of a lake and got down. She needed some relaxation to her mind and heart. It was nearly evening so no one was there. She sat on the platform and started watching the slow sunset.

She noticed someone's presence behind her. She turned around to find a teen girl. She smiled at her. She smiled back.

"Aap yaha sunset dekhne ayi hai kya?", The girl asked.

"Ha. Hum Jab bhi udas hote hai na toh iss sunset ko dekhte hai. Hamare maan ko bohot sukun milta hai. Par tum yaha akele kya kar rahi hon? Koi saath nahi hai tumhare?", Hassena asked.

"Main toh akeli hi hun. Par aap akeli kyu hai? Koi nahi hai aapke saath?", She asked.

"Aaisa nahi hai. Hamare saath hamari Ammi hai, hamari puri team hai. Par abhi iss vakt hum yaha akele hi hai", Hassena said.

"Ek baat puche?"

"Ha", Hassena said.

"Aap ko kabhi bhi kisi se pyaar hua hai?", She asked.

"Tumhari umar kya hai? Aaise sawal kar rahi ho?", Hassena asked amused.

"Meri umar toh 16 saal ki hai. Isiliye pyaar kya hota yeh toh nahi pata, par hota hai yeh pata hai", she said.

Hassena chuckled painfully.

"Kya hua?"

"Nahi kuch nahi. Pyaar kya hota hai yeh toh hume bhi nahi pata. Par jab hota hai toh bohot accha lagta hai. Dil ko sukun milta hai. Jisse pyaar karte hai baas ussi ke baarein mein sochte rehne ka maan karta hai. Uske saath vakt bitane ka maan karta hai. Zindagi bhar uske saath bitana hi aapni manzil lagne lagti hai. Uski silly silly si baatein aapne liye kab important baan jati hai pata hi nahi chalta. Aapne dil mein agar kisi ke liye Saccha pyaar ho na toh aap ke dil mein jo uske liye jagah hoti hai voh koi aur le hi nahi sakta.", The girl keenly listened Hassena as she explained love.

"Kya didi ek toh bolte ho ki aapko nahi pata ki pyaar kya hota hai aur abhi aapne yeh jo lambi chaudi defination di hai pyaar ki lag raha tha ki koi love guru pyaar ke baarein mein bata raha ho", the girl said.

Hassena let out a laugh.

"Vaise abhi aapko ghar jana chahiye, bohot der ho gayi hai. Aapki Ammi aapka ghar par intezar kar rahi hongi", Hassena said looking at the watch.

The girl laughed. Hassena looked at her confused.

"Aab hamari Maa kabhi bhi hamara intezar nahi karenge", The girl said and left running.

Hassena was just rooted to her place. She couldn't understand anything.

She got up to leave. She came near her car when she felt unusual. She looked here and there. She decided to ignore it.

But, when she sat in the car she noticed a known figure. Yes, it was of Anubhav. He was sitting on the platform and smiled at her. She was shocked and tears formed in her eyes.

She quickly opened the door and ran towards the direction but found no one. She placed her hand on her head to calm herself down. Was it her illusion?

She ignored it and drove towards her home again.

------------

Some days later,

Hassena was in record room fiddling with files. She wasn't yet married to Nadim. Her Ammi had scolded her to be on duty when her marriage was so close but for her duty always come first.

She was busy with files when one person came and kept the files on desk and left for bringing another bunch of files.

Hassena was done checking the files. She picked up some files which were needed and was leaving when she hit the pile of files and files collapsed on floor. Some files opened due to impact.

She sat on the floor and began rearranging the files. One last file was remaining which had opened. She pulled the file close to her and the sight she saw made her confused plus shock.

"Yeh tasveer? Yeh toh vahi ladki hai jo uss din hame talab ke kinare mili thi. Par iski tasveer yaha iss file mein? Yeh file padkar hi pata chalega ki mamla kya hai?", Hassena thought and started reading the file.

Her eyes widened in shock.

"Yeh ladki maar chuki hai? Hamari sagai vale din. Aisa kaise ho sakta hai? Yeh toh hume uske do din baad mili thi. Par aaisa kaise mumkin hai?", She thought....
