Karma
KARMA...!!
By robotic rooh
After years she called me. It was midnight, about 1:30 am, I was awake, scrolling feeds on Instagram, checking memes. Suddenly I got a call from an unknown number. I was confused, who can this be? I ignored the call, thinking if it was important, the caller will call again. My phone rang again and I picked up the call, “Hello”.
From the other side, “Hello”.
For an instant, my breath was seized, as it was her. Memories started to flesh, I travelled back to some years and felt like something stuck in my throat.
I once again murmured, “Hello”.
She replied, “Didn’t I disturb you”.
I felt nervous in replying. Should I tell her yes or no, I was frustrated?
Millions of questions crossed my mind. Why did she call me after years? Why she came back?
Using all my courage, I said, “Not at all, you continue”.
She, “How are you”?
Me, “Hmm fine and you”.
After this, she started crying, and said, “I am not fine”.
Then I was even more confused, what was happening? Out of nowhere she called me after years and start crying.
I pretended I am ok and start talking then she said her Bf left her for someone else.
She told all how he left, how she begged her to stay, how she cried for him.
Before some years same pain was felt by me when she left me.
Her bf never turned back after leaving her same as she never turned back after leaving me.
Tears in my eyes and a smile on my face as karma did it. She was trapped in the same situation where she pushed me for some years.
She was crying aloud, saying sorry a million times for what she did to me. She wants me to be with her now.
I loved her for years and it took me more years to move on after she left. But when she came back, for an instant I felt like everything was back.
I forgave her and she asked,” will you accept me”?
After hearing this I got a recap of all our promises, those days, those memories and the day she left me.
My eyes were full of tears and I answered, “No, never”
I can forgive you for what you did, but can’t accept a person like you in my life, never and ever.
The pain you gave me, those crying sleepless nights, how can I forget?
All this which happened to you is the result of what you did to me. And you have to bear it with or without your consent.
You treated me like a choice, you left me for someone else. How can I forget?
I am sorry, I can’t be with you anymore.
And the last request don’t try to contacts me again. And then I hung up the phone.
It was the first time when I said “no” to her.
Tears started to roll down my cheeks. Yes, I cried that time but didn’t repeat the mistake twice.
IN LIFE, SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO FOLLOW OUR MIND NOT OUR HEART. HEART SOMETIMES CHEATS US BY BEING AN EMOTIONAL FOOL. MIND ALWAYS KNOWS WHAT IS RIGHT AND WRONG, EVERYTHING.
throughout our whole life, we always follow our heart and ignores our mind, that is where we have to regret it afterwards.
