Forbidden Desire by Ritesh Prasad (best sales books of all time .TXT) 📕

“Yeah, I used to play guitar during my college days, I even have one at my home, but that is electric guitar.” I replied while tuning the strings.

“Why are you tightening those keys?” He asked.

“I am tuning the strings, if they are not properly tuned, it won’t sound good.” I replied while checking the strings tuning.

“Ohh Rohit Da, we never knew that you could play guitar, otherwise I would have come to you earlier.” This guitar has been lying in Shantanu’s room for so many days. Will you please teach me to play guitar?” He asked excitedly.

“Ohh sure, why not, but it needs a lot of practice, though I am not a formally trained guitarist. I learnt this from one of my friend way back in high school.” I replied still tuning the guitar.

“Can you play songs?” He enquired further.

“Not all songs, as it needs practice, but yes quite a few of popular songs. Okay, now it is perfectly tuned to play.” I said stretching the guitar.

“Please play any song Rohit Da? I am waiting.” He said getting impatient.

“Okay okay and I started strumming the guitar and the sound coming out of the guitar made him excite, “Woooooow you play so well”.

“I just smiled,” and continued strumming.

We started with “Hmmmmmm Dooba Dooba Rehta Hu Annkho Meh Teri….Deewana Ban Gaya Hu Meh ” He also started singing along with me. I just closed my eyes while playing the guitar and sang, back of mind I could see Sakshi’s smiling face, I could feel her, and this made my voice more melodious. I just smile and continued singing.

After the song was completed, he clapped and shouted, “Wooooow wooooow that’s great…..awesome…..you play so well.”

“Not that great Yaar… Don’t flatter me.” I smiled and opened my eyes, I was surprise to see bunch of guys were by then gathered in his room. They all clapped and requested more songs. I played one after another song, they all joined me. The jamming session continued for hours and I was obliged to entertain their request. There were many among them who were eager to learn guitar from me. I just kept the guitar aside and went with Nikhil downstairs for dinner. The music somehow diverted my mind for some time from the pain that I was going through.

Around 10:30 pm I came to my room, I checked my mobile, there were 3 missed calls. I checked the details, calls were from Sakshi. I felt so happy to see her name on my mobile screen after so many days. I don’t know how and why, but my eyes became moisten.

I wiped my eyes, came to my bed and dialed her number, after a few rings, there was her voice from the other end.

“Hello! How are you” I said, trying to be poised.

“I am fine; did you have your dinner?” She asked with her soft voice.            

“I am so happy that you talked to me. Did you have your dinner?” I said with joy.

“Yes, and was about to sleep, but thought of calling you to say sorry for being rude today.”

“No, Sakshi, I should feel sorry. I have hurt your feelings and I must admit that.” There was complete silence on her end and I could sense her weeping.

“Are you crying?” I asked with uneasiness.

“No, I am fine. You don’t worry, I am going to sleep. You also sleep well.” She replied.

“Wait Sakshi!!!! Please I want to talk to you. Please don’t disconnect. Today I had felt very bad. I want to confess something.” I said in haste.

“What do you want to confess????? That you can’t love me, and you are sorry for that. Ohhh…….. Leave it Rohit, I am fine. I know what you want to say? Don’t repeat the same dialogue again and again. I never force to you reciprocate the same feeling. I just expressed what I felt for you. You are the first man in my life, even though I may not get you, but I am going to cherish those moments of our togetherness for ever and ever. I love you!!!!!! But have never expects the same from you in return, as Love never demands and complaints!!! I will accept this as my destiny. Please delete my number and don’t try to contact me ever. Because if I confront you, I won’t be able to control my feelings, so go away from my life; far very far from me, before this makes my life miserable.” She said and started crying profusely.

“No Sakshi, stop crying….. I want to confess that……Today I realized how desperately I want you in my life. Yes!!!! Sakshi these 3- 4 days without you were no less than hell, all these days I was only occupied in your thoughts… I want you badly in my life. Yes Sakshi……I am in love with you!!!!!!!!! From the core of my heart. I love you Sakshi….. I really love you!!!!!!!!!” I said with teary eyes.

“Really??? You mean it????”

“Yes, I mean it. No matter what happens, I will always be there for you.”

“Ohh, I am so happy to hear that. God has been so kind to me.”

“Sakshi now, please stop crying, I am there for you forever and ever.”

“Ohh Rohit…… I am on cloud nine……..let these tears flow freely from my eyes…..these tears are celebrating our union and love….. These are tears of happiness….. You can’t imagine how happy I am today. What is the date today?” She said in excitement.

“Hmmm…. It’s 6th January.” I replied, looking at my cell phone.

“Okay…..we will celebrate this date as our Love Anniversary every year. Promise me Jaan!!!! You will always remember this date.”

She called me Jaan instead of my name; my heart loved every moment of this. “Yessss Dear ….. I promise…… no matter what happens, how many ups & down comes in our life…… I will always love you the way I do and will always celebrate this date as special every year.”

“Ohhhh jaan ….i am very very happy….thanks for accepting me in your life.”

“Stop thanking me again and again. Now there should be no formalities between us

No sorry and no thanks….. You are now a part of me and I am part of yours….got

it??”

“Yes, I understood…I love you Jaan!!!!!!” She exclaimed in joy

“Love you too Honey!!!!!!”

It was the most memorable day in my life, we continued talking to each other till late in the night and finally around 2:00 am she dictated me to sleep, though I want this moment to be continued forever…..but I had my office as well in the morning, so we finally hung our respective cell phones and went to sleep.

In the morning around 8:00 am I got a call from her……. “Wake up my Jaan!!!!! It’s time for office”. I just simply adore the way she called me, we talked for a while and then I got from the bed to get ready for office. This morning was special, different from other days, I felt very happy, very light from inside. I feel like dancing and could not resist myself from watching my face again and again in the mirror and smiling every time looking at myself. My life now got a new meaning. We used to talk for hours late in the night, because in the day I hardly got time. I was eagerly waiting for the Sunday, so that I could meet her.

So on Saturday night I called her.

“Can we meet outside this Sunday? I want to make this Sunday very special for both of us. I mean last Sunday was like hell for me. I felt very bad and in your house we hardly get time to talk to each other with everyone being around.” I said requesting to her.

“No, that’s not possible, what will I say to Mom, Sunday I don’t have any classes neither my tuition. Forget about me, what will you say,…… you have been coming to our house every Sunday without fail… Mom will feel bad. Make it some other day, but not Sunday.” She replied.

“But you know very well, I have off only on Sundays, how we can meet on other days, beside you have your classes too.”

“Okay, don’t worry, I will bunk my class on any one day and you too take leave from your office. You decide and let me know. Then we will make our plan accordingly.”

“Okay, honey as you wish.”

Then we continued talking for hours. She was the best part of my life; I got a new reason to survive. Sunday morning, my favourite day of the week, this Sunday was very very special. I am going to meet my lady love, I was now over cautious about my look than before, now I took more than the usual time to get ready. I believe this happens to everyone who are truly, deeply and madly in love. Around 1 pm I reached their house and pressed the doorbell, to my surprise the door was open by Sakshi!!!!! with a big smile on her face, we exchanged love through our eyes for a few seconds and then I quietly entered in. Aunty as usual, was in the kitchen. I enquired about Kaushik. She replied that he has gone to the market along with Raju. I felt at much ease we both sat on the sofa. She was quietly staring at me every now and then. Our silence romance continued only for few minutes and was soon distracted by Auntie’s voice “Sakshi oh Sakshi pass me the vegetables from the fridge”. She smiled and went in the kitchen. While I was there watching TV in the hall, after a few minutes my mobile beeped for SMS. I opened to check what it was, to my surprise it was from Sakshi….

“You look hunk in the blue and black outfit… Meri jaan Akshay Kumar se kam nahi. I am so happy that you are mine”.

I looked back while sitting on the sofa there she was smiling with mobile in her hand in the kitchen, while her Mom was busy in doing something. I smiled too and started watching TV again. There was another beep in my mobile, I opened.

“I love my jaan………. You’re the best part of my life…Muaaaahhhh”.

I smiled and replied back

“I love you too my honey….. Finish your work soon and come sit near me. I want my princess to be in front of me… can’t wait anymore.”

After sending the SMS I turned back to look her facing glowing after reading my message. She replied back…

“ Thoda intezaar karo jaan……I m comin”.

Our love texting continued for quite some time, then she finished her work and came and sat near me. I was blushing instead of her, “Common Rohit stop it!!!!!” you are making fool of yourself. There was a voice from my conscience. I kept gazing at her, while her eyes were fixed on TV, I was minutely looking at her of which she was unaware. Today she had let her hair untied, she must have her bath not long back as I cloud see water droplets coming out of her hair tip and that made her look damn gorgeous. My eyes now came near her those pink lips….. I was yet to explore those with my own. Suddenly her eyes met mine and understood what my intention was and made herself conscious.

“Keep those dirty intentions out of your head and stop staring me with those hungry eyes. Don’t forget Mom is around. This way you will put both of us in trouble.” She said in extremely low tone.

I just smiled and said nothing.

Ohh girls girls!!!!! The great creature of this world, their sixth sense works so excellently no matter how clever a boy may be a girl can easily gauge what’s cooking in his head just by looking into his eyes. I text her many kisses through my cell phone and got double of those in seconds. Our silent love continued in this way.
