Flashback starts:
On the day of cultural program where Mikku and Sumedh were playing roles of Radha and Krishn. Mikku was hell tensed and nervous in her make up room that's when Sumj entered.
Sumi: yeh le Mikku black coffee ☕ and chill..kuch bawal nahi hoga.sab thik hoga have confidence...
Mikku smiled at Sumedh..
Mikku: Lekin yaar I am healthy tensed love. This is my first play and don't even know if I look good and if this character suits me. I am scared because you know what if I get my script due to all my nervousness? O my god is in the whole thing will go down the drain. Oh holy Lord what should I do?
Sumedh made maker turn towards him and hug her tightly providing her with his warmth.
Sumi: All will be okay, Mikku. Don't worry.
Saying so he kissed her forehead to provide reassurance but that action of his shocked Mikku to the core. He left the room.
Mikku: (touches her forehead where he kissed) Did he just...?(blushes like a tomato 🍅)
On stage:
Anchor: Now we would like to make all of you witness some glimpse of the romantic saga of RadhaKrishn's lovestory...
During the whole play, Mikku felt pure bliss. After all she had not been so close to Sumedh before. She kept staring at him longingly during the raas. Even Sumedh had a small smile on his lips lingering throught the play. He also felt some sort of unknown feeling that made him feel like heaven. Everything he looked at Mikku's eyes he could see care, kindness, longingness, friendship, and...love? maybe?
He shrugged off his feelings and concentrated on his play.
During the award function:
Judge (Miss Smith): I appreciate all the hardwork the teams have put into their plays. All of them were wonderful. But the role that touched my heart was one RadhaKrishn. The way the whole plot of saga was displayed is mindblowing. And Sumedh and Mallika you guys looked perfect. The way you look into each other's eyes show that you guys hold a lot of affection for each other. I wouldn't be surprised if you guys ended up as a couple in the near future. Thank you! Sumedh and Mallika please collect your awards from the principle room tommorow morning.
Sumellika: OK maam
At 10: 00pm, Sumedh's house's balcony:
Sumi: Mikku I can't believe. We actually won. I am so happy.
Mikku: (gazes at the moon and says in a trance) Ya me too..
Sumi: What happened? Why is my Mikku pie looking so dull after giving such a wonderful performance 🎭
Mikku: Nothing yaar..
Sumedh: (side hugs her) You know na that you can always hare everything with me?
Mikku: (keeps her head on her shoulder) Nothing just missing maa and papa..Imagine how happy they would have been after knowing we won..
Sumedh:(wraps his arms around her) Shsnshshhhssshhh..its ok Mikku...they are still watching you..if you cry they will feel bad..always remember you have me by your side...I will never leave you..I will always trust you over anything...because I know an innocent soul like you can't lie...just make sure of ond thing Mikku never allow anyone to take advantage if your innocence. Even if it is me..please mikku..promise me that?
Suddenly he heard soft snores and realized she had slept. He carried her in his arms and took her to her room. He placed her on the bed careful enough not to wake her up and covered her with the quilt. He lightly kissed her forehead and went till the door. He looked back once more with smile and said: Good night my innocent soul! And locked the door.
Mikku opened her eyes with tears. Did he also love her? I promise you my love I won't let anyone take advantage of my innocence.
With that she was engulfed by a peaceful yet deep slumber ...
Flashback ends
This was their last picture as after two days was Valentine's Day when Sumi proposed Tunisha and Sumedh became ignorant towards her. Mikku could only want time to stop at that moment and that play to never end..just like RadhaKrishn's love for each never ended...Mikku knew even after dying they were still living somewhere..here...hand in hand...with each other and their pure love...now the question of where? Simple. In the hearts of true lovers....the ones who can sacrifice anything for their partner..even their life...one who can cross any boundaries to protect the other one.one who could even swim the seven oceans to see the one smile on the partner's face...who would trust, respect, love and guide you even in your worst times...is this what they called love? Yes! Then couldn't Mikku do all this for her Sumi? Of course she could..
But that's not where the real problem lies. The real question is that can Sumedh also do that for her? Can he also love 💘 her with the same intensity with which she loves him...the answer is maybe or maybe not...
Maybe in her dreams she could get the answer as Yes Mikku! I love you with my heart ❤ All of my heart, body and soul belongs to you 💛 Oh my! How much she would be happy if that was the truth...but that's not the truth..
This is the truth...That her love was always one sided..THIS IS THE GOD DAMN REALITY THAT SUMEDH MUDGALKAR DOESN'T LOVE HER!!!
But you know, this hurts...it hurts a lot. DAMMIT, THIS REALITY HURTS A LOT. After all the world 🌎 is not a wish granting factory. And she needed to face this cruel reality with his unhealed yet invisible wound. This wound was not a physical one but a one which affected her heart. This wound has made her loose faith on love. But she still loves Sumedh but this time the won't let him take advantage of it. She won't break her promis this time too. Now she will only forgive Sumedh when he truly repents it and starts to trust her. But now she has an unfinished task.
Time to get back to work, Kali Shehzaadi 🖤
TIME TO TURN THE TABLES!
