Finally Suru joined Inder as they started walking together along with the constable to the nearby hospital as the cold breeze started flowing.
The officer who was still inside the vehicle looked up to the rear view mirror again smiling and there... Just beside the rear view mirror there it was
A photograph of a woman smiling through the picture wearing a white saree looking so calm and pretty as she smiles brightly.
He touched the photo remembering the woman's voice and what she used to say reminding him all the time
'Ravi, keep this gun and sticks aside...' the woman's voice said calmly
'Only two words are enough to run this world'
He removed his band back as he keep remembering her words falling into the lane of her memories
'Sorry-I love you'
the voice continued
He looked at the picture with teary eyes her words going through his mind. Imagining as she is with him saying these things personally to him again like always.
Seeing that photo with soft teary eyes and her words surrounding his loneliness it felt as he was holding a direct conversation with her. As she is here with him how much he hoped to let this scene go forever and forever.
'See... Dear...' he finally said
'You left me' he said in his mind still holding a conversation with her as he kept staring at her picture lovingly not wanting to pop this bubble of his comfort where they are together.
'But some day this "sorry-I love you"...'
'will cost me my job'
He nodded at her in the picture smiling and said 'Let's go' as to bid her farewell but not for long as she will always stay with him like that
Taking a deep breath to prevent the tears from falling. His chest was feeling heavy he looked outside taking the cold breeze in and closed his eyes still willing to remain in her comfort for a little while as the darkness in the sky started fading and dawn broke
