The Invisible Truth Of My Love

By Komanduri Kavya

The watch on my wrist is ticking away each inevitable second of the day, my brother is rushing beside my stretcher holding my hand, shouting kunju don't worry, be strong I'm here to be with you forever, trust me yar. Tears in his eyes rolling down his cheeks dropping on my fist, his white shirt turned into blood color. I could not say anything but that moment when I was about to leave my life with a grief of making a wrong choice, before losing my hope I should have remembered you bro. I made a wrong decision, I'm sorry for hurting you. I was taken to the emergency ward, my treatment was started, and everyone in that operation room was trying their best to save my life. I'm recollecting everything that has happened on that day; I thought it was going to be the most wonderful day of my life. Done my routines of my day by 10.00 AM. Sanju, one and only my loving brother, whom i can share anything without any fear and hesitation. He is ready to drop me to coffee day to make my wish come true. We started by 10.30 AM in the morning, we started our drive with those silly fights we do daily for unnecessary things. We have taken that bunch of beautiful white roses matching my dress with lots of love and hope on our way. My phone started ringing, my eyes were filled with happiness and my face was glowing with a blush. I picked the call and said I will be there in another 15mins and kept my phone on desk. We reached my place, my brother dropped me on the left side of the road in front of a coffee shop and he started his way to meet her friends by saying "All Best Kunju '', I closed the door saying "Thank you idiot" while laughing. I hold the bunch of flowers in my hands and took a deep breath and started moving towards the entrance of the door. Suddenly, I glimpsed at the left side there and I could see him holding a bunch of flowers with a happy face and a pack of wedding cards on his right hand side of the table with a charming girl in front of him. I lost my mind, I remember only his words last night "Kunju, please come to the coffee day that we use to go with our friends regularly, i have a surprise for you. It is the most awaited and happiest moment of my life. I want to share it with you, please be our guest for the day". It's my mistake of misunderstanding his words, I lost my mind don't know how foolish it is to take such a big decision in life without knowing his feelings. I can't show my face to him now; I started to move away from there with a lost mind. Don't know where I'm going, my heart was broken, tears rolling down my cheeks, I left all the roses on the road which are crushing under the wheels of the vehicle as my heart is quashing with pain.

I am not aware of what is going around me and crossing the road. Suddenly, I have heard my brother's voice who came to give me my phone. I'm about to cross the road with a lost mind. A car from my left side hit me down, it all happened within a fraction of seconds. All I could see was my brother rushing towards me and taken into his hands and then to a nearby hospital.

I'm almost about to close my eyes, I could feel the pain both physically and mentally. Doctors are trying their best to save my life.

My operation was completed in 30mins. I could listen his voice with whom my brother is talking; tears are rolling down from my eyes. All I could listen is his words, how all this happened with a pain in his voice. After 4hours, doctors allowed my brother to see me. Next morning I felt better than yesterday, my brother asked me what happened. I explained complete thing that happened yesterday. He is listening our conversation outside my room; he came into room after 5mins with bunch of red roses and get well soon greeting cards. He came towards with a warm smile and a girl in a light pink dress came inside, only one whom I have seen with him in a coffee day. He introduced her saying "Kunju, she is my little sis Payal" then he said "Her marriage date is fixed which is first happiest event that is going to happen in our family. I wish to share this happiest moment with you and then want to propose you but you haven’t come to meet us”. I realized that it’s my mistake of misunderstanding the things without knowing the truth behind the things that I have seen.

Sometimes what all we see with our eyes is not truth; there is an untold truth behind it.
