Ethical vs Practical : "Marriage is not always the ultimate result of love, that doesn't mean love is insane!" (Part 5/5)

(DISCLAIMER : The story, all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this story are fictitious. No identification with actual persons (living or deceased), places  is intended or should be inferred)

Missed Episode - 4 ?! Don't worry, I'll take you there, Episode 4.

I would like to add one thing Aryan, "Rejection/break-up is also an emotion as Love, respect it!"

"It's very apparent and easier said than done!"

"It's not the matter of easy or hard, it's the matter of truth and reality!", said Alankrita in a pleasing tone.

"Dear Philosopher, I don't want to be your prey tonight!" Aryan teases her and orders food!

Alankrita had spent good time with her love after being fractured her funny bone. Aayushi finds Alankrita like a dog with two tails.

She asks Alankrita, "Did he accept your proposal?"

"No, I did not propose him yesterday, we just had a chat"

"Oh! I even planned my dress for your wedding after seeing you so ecstatic from the dawn!"

"<laughs> but for the matter of fact, he was very disappointed by that girl. Albeit I care him the most, I don't want him to think that I am taking advantage of situation!"

"Girl with tactics! 😉 "

"Shut up! Let's leave for the class" Alankrita suggests.

"Hey! Wsup? Dinner tonight?" a texts pops up from Aryan.

"Hey! In class, yup sure! @?" Alankrita replies.

"7pm, meeting point, see you soon x"

"See you xx"

The connection between Aryan and Alankrita is turning out to be very opposite, in the sense as positive and negative, wherein the truth, opposites attract!

As they both finds time, they text each other often and the covalent bond turns out to be a ionic bond as time passes! They go to movie, amusement parks and shopping together. As time goes by Alankrita had a steady love towards him, it doesn't got exaggerated because she was in close proximity with him neither got played down when she was not in close proximity. Her love is pure and genuine!

As Alankrita thought that things were falling in place, she received a text from Aryan, "Hey! meet at 6pm? Urgent".

"Sure! meeting point @5 x"

Aryan confesses that his parents had fixed a marriage for him and he finds that girl apt for him!

This shatters all the dreams of Alankrita and suddenly ionic bond becomes inert! She does not get into tears as she is used to this but somewhere down her conscious she felt a feeling of affliction.

Aayushi feels that her friend is down in the dumps. Friends can understand our feelings well than any other on this planet! No, Sorry! Those who understand our feelings are friends!

She manages to talk to Alankrita, "What happened?"

"He is getting married!"

"What?!!!" Aayushi jumps out of her skin!

"Yes, the next month!"

"Oh! I am sorry for you! You shouldn't have kept expectation on him after being rejected!"

"Again I am repeat, I didn't keep expectations on him, I just hoped!"

"Yeah, even the hope!"

"Whatever! I love him ever!"

"Are you away with the fairies?!"

"No, Absolutely not!"

"Marriage is not always the ultimate result of love, that doesn't mean love is insane!"

"New philosophy, hmmm" nods Aayushi!

"This is not the philosophy, this is reality! For the matter of fact I never speak philosophy, but just reality and it seems to be philosophical to you because you sometimes not be in reality!"

Aryan gets married to the girl who his family selected! Alankrita was still in love with him!

Seeing Alankrita go bananas, Aayushi brings a topic of a guy who likes her so much, but did not tell her earlier because of her connection with Aryan.

"I am not that dumb to know the reason you are bringing this to me now!" Alankrita says in a heavy tone!

"I know you are clever but by half!" Aayushi 😉.

"That's your perception, it doesn't mind me!"

"Cmon Alankrita, its time now, forget him"

Alankrita gives a thought to what Aayushi said as she lays on her bed. The battle between ethicality (loving Aryan) and practicality (to love other as Aryan is married) is on in her head! There will be similar situations in everyone's life at some point in time. This is not about the morality but the life itself! We keep on thinking what is 'right' and what is 'wrong' but we always forget to see the life as it is! We also lookup to something and look down on something but always forgets to see life as it is! After all this is life!

As anila (breeze in Sanskrit) blows in from the windows, Alankrita's friend Anila wakes her up, "Hey baby! Its Valentine's day, what makes you sleep so long?"

Alankrita wakes up and asks for Aayushi. "Who is Aayushi?" asks Anila.

"My friend!" says Alankrita still rubbing her eyes gently!

"There is no one named Aayushi in our friend's list after all we being together from our school days!" Anila confronts her.

" No, she is my friend who helped me in times when I was with Aryan" Alankrita confirms!

"What the hell! Who the hell is Aryan now?"

"He is my love!"

"On this Valentine's day, where does Achyut go then?" Anila teases Alankrita.

Alankrita gets bewildered!

"Oh! Again a dream! Did you at least marry the guy in this dream? Is he more handsome than Achyut?" Anila teases again!

"Oh God, no more dreams please!! Just shut up Anila! Lets enjoy every day as a Valentine's day"

Alankrita and Achyut tied the nuptial knot!
