#WritcoStoryChallenge
The painting was yellowed with rounded edges. It was a masterpiece and it was lying in my hand. Wait, have I stolen it? I don't remember...
I have a blur picture of Last night in my mind. oh! why can't I just remember what had happened yesterday!
I must ask Samira, one of my close friend.
hello..... Samira,
hii , she replied
would you please do me a favor? actually I don't remember yesterday's incident. what had happened actually?
are you serious , she asked me.
ya..., but why?
meet me at laccy garden. we will talk out.
I went out to meet her, but her words left me astonished. I came back. the only thought which was in my mind is , how could Rahul do this to me?
is he a cheat? have I done a mistake on trusting him?

Rahul, my child hood friend later became my soulmate. I trusted on him more than anything in my life. He had a perfect combination of everything a girl wish to have in her man. love ,care, dedication and a little arrogance. just perfect. we were happy in our life, but made him change so drastically? it is still a matter of surprise for me.
I looked at that picture...and found a letter...a break up letter.
it cleared that I have not stolen it, rather it has been returned to me.
yes ,that masterpiece was a painting of our journey of love. Rahul has promised to keep it with him as a sign of love, but he returned it with a breakup note at Sameera's birthday party.
I drank so much to distract the pain,...that's why I don't remember.
but I remember all the moments we have spent, and this kills me every moment.
but why we broke up? still a mystery.......

TWO YEARS PASSED.....

I am back to Mumbai after a long days. finally I have managed to get rid of the old memories..
wait... but what is that!
"to let bord"... why is that infront of Rahul's house?
I went to have an enquiry.
Excuse me! is not Rahul here, I asked the guard.
my self Ragini, his friend.
as soon he heard my name, he hand overed me a letter with few documents.
it dragged away the soil from my feet..
" Ragini I am sorry. I had no intention to hurt you, but crying for a days is far better than crying for whole life. I have no more time, but I will walk away with all our memories.
don't cry my sweetheart, though I will walk away from this world, I will still shine in our memories.
- your love
RAHUL."
the documents were his medical reports, last stage of cancer.
tears rolled down my chicks...

today I am living with our memories and my guilt..
not guilt of misunderstanding him...
but guilt of not standing by his side in lis last moment...
Neither I could forgive my self for this nor I could forget our incomplete journey to the end ...
