Chereads / ONLY HIS TREASURE / Chapter 5 - Chapter 6

Chapter 5 - Chapter 6

Third Person Point of view:

"Anya.." his voice sounded painful to Anya.. She was shocked to see him lying there in bed.. Lifeless, weak, his eyes had no charm that he used to have. His lips slightly twitched into a small smile. His body was so thin.. He looked like he didn't have proper food… the once fit body was now gone…

"Are you going to just stand there? Don't you want to come and talk to me?" he asked her his voice was desperate. She slowly moved towards him and stood beside and stared at him for a minute. He broke the silence, "Marriage suits you Anya.." that moment her tears betrayed her…

He tried to sit up. Varun and Arjun helped him… "Come here." she obeyed and sat on the bed.. With his weak hands he took her hand…. "Just how much I missed holding these fingers." he intertwined fingers…

"Ask your Questions Anya" he declared… "Why didn't you tell me?" she asked him. Arjun was watching all over these.. An unknown emotion was swirling inside him…

"These tears.. For these I didn't want to.. I hate to see you Cry Anya.." he wiped her tears.. She controlled her tears and looked at him. Love was visible in her eyes.. Arjun was jealous by looking at them, "Aren't you going to Introduce me to your husband?" he asked her and looked at the blankness in her eyes…

"Arjun Dhwani… My husband… Arjun is Karthik… my bestfriend and once my ex lover…" she said with much difficulty…

"Hello Mr.Dhwani…" Karthik greeted him… "Hi.." Arjun smiled ..

"You have got a gem Arjun… I knew about your marriage beforehand, Shreya Told me..and I know Anya will always make the right Decision..I hope this time she also made the right decision as well… she is a diamond Arjun… she will be hard as a rock but behind the rock there is a flower behind.. The rock is the wall of her own.. the morals she follows.. breaking the rock won't be easy… but you have to… because underneath there is a flower who is waiting for love and care… I hope you will give me what I missed…" Karthik looked at Arjun who was looking at Anu with emotions…

"I will try…" he said…. "Anu… promise me one thing…. That no matter what this time you will be happy… even if i leave.." she looked at him bewildered…

"Are you Crazy??!!!" She shouted …. Shreya took her hand and gave a little squeeze .. she composed herself…

"Karthik if i had known this was the reason you left me i would have brought the whole world just to save you… you are the one who knows me as me… what will I do without you Kartik?" Her voice was in so much pain….

Arjun hates to see her like this… " I am tired Anya… as much as i want to live… I have no one except you … " he said.. she sat on the bed… " Don't you want to live for me??" She asked with a desperate….

" I want to see your happiness and someone is here to take care of you Anya… " he said and she looked at without blinking… "As much as I hate to tell my Cancer there is no proper treatment… I am happy that you married Arjun and I hope he will take care of you… if not …" he paused…

"Will you be there for me?" She asked … "I can't but I will always be in your heart… forever… i trust Arjun Anya… he won't hurt you…" he looked at Arjun who was looking at Karthik…

"Don't break my trust Arjun…" he mumbled…

"Why can't you just try once for me Karthik??"She asked him…

Karthik shook his head … "No Anya… god has written our fates for certain things we can't change that.. if i was meant to die…" She closed his mouth… "Don't you Dare Karthik say that… " he chuckled and removed her hold ..

" Accept reality and move on Anya… Shreya got me a pen and paper…" Shreya rushed and gave that to him….

Anu was confused and he was writing something and he gave that letter to Arjun… "Keep this… when the time comes you yourself will read this.." Arjun with hesitation took this and stuffed it in his pocket…

"Karthik, why don't we try foreign hospitals?" Varun asked him… Karthik sadly chuckled… " I had…" his pause gave the answers….

"Anya … my time has come… remember one thing no matter what Don't stop smiling on your face… your smile is your strength… and remember that i will always be in your heart and no matter what i will always protect you… my presence will always be beside you… just promise one thing…" he looked at her home eyes….

"Give a chance to Arjun… be patient… throw away your Morals for once…. Forget me and move on Anya…" he said with struggle…

"Karthik, how in the world would you ask me to do such a thing??" Tears were flowing from her eyes…

"Promise me.. my Anya will never go back on her words…. Promise me…. My last wish, please Anya.." he pleaded… seeing his plea she gave him…

"I will.. I am giving you my word Kartik…" she cried holding his shoulder, her face on his right shoulder… he slowly stroked her hair.. he cupped her face and gave her a forehead kiss… "I love you… I always will… take care of yourself for me … Goodbye.. Anya.."with that she heard a beep sound.. she pulled away only to see his eyes closed with a smile on his face….

Anya turned to Shreya who shook her head…
