In Search of Love

  “ Without any doubt one of the leading and most famous opera houses in the world.” The place was awesome. A sweet smile came in face of samaira which made Andrew grateful, he was very happy.

  Smile for a while, but with a sweet smile.

  Your smiling face makes my day,

  This is the only thing I want to say.

  I forget all my sorrows and all my grief,

  Whenever I see you smiling in brief.

  I can cross bridges and miles,

  Just for your sweet smile!!!

  He proposed samaira in a very traditional and romantic way. Sitting on his knees he bowed his head with a red rose in his hand, he says,

  ‘ will you be mine princess, I love you from the depth of my heart and will always love you like this. I want to give you the happiness and love that you deserve.’

  The tears came out of her eyes as this was the happiest moment for Samaira. It was like ‘ drops of water on burning heart, which blow down in the form of tears from her eyes.’ She hugged Andrew passionately.

  ‘ I always desired for true love, my eyes always searched for someone, who would be mine. Who will always love me and with whom I can share my feelings.’ Says samaira in emotional voice.

  Holding hand in hand, they had a lovable time in ‘opera house’. They shared their feelings, had a nice time together. At evening they reached to guest house. After reaching there they came to know that, Anna has gone to the hospital as she was having a doubt of having a fracture in her leg. The manager gave the keys of room to samaira. She takes Andrew to bedroom.

  ‘ come we will wait there.’ Holding his hands she take him to room.

  Andrew locks the door after they get into the room.

  ‘ You and I, both alone in this bedroom anything can be done. Can’t be?’

  She looked into his eyes, she feels the naughty thoughts going in his mind.

  I love you, you love me,

  Then what is the problem?

  Come and hold me.

  Hold me so tight,

  as this is your right.

  feelings are aroused for each other,

  just make love don’t bother.

  Make love with so much of passion,

  That it becomes your dedication.

  They both were very happy and shared their happiness by making love like the meeting of two divine souls in heaven.

  After some time they both got up from bed, get fresh and goes to lobby to have coffee together.

  Chapter 11:

  Samaira

  Anna reaches guest house. She inquires about Samaira from reception.

  ‘ Where is samaira. I hope she has reached by time here.’ Asks Anna.

  ‘ Yeah mam, she is sitting in lobby with Mr. Andrew.’ replies the manager.

  Anna goes to samaira with the help of manager who takes her to lobby giving her support to walk by holding her hand.

  Seeing Anna, samaira says,

  Hey ! Anna, sit here. Why did you come here in the lobby, you should have called me up. What did the doctor say? Is there fracture in your bone?

  ‘Don’t panic samaira, I am fine. There is a minor injury in the bone, but the doctor has done plaster, now it will be fine in a few days.’ Replies Anna

  You tell me, how was your day. Did you enjoy?

  Ya….. Anna, I enjoyed a lot. It was a great day. You know where Andrew took me today? Samaira asks with excitement to Anna.

  Where?

  He took me to one of the famous opera house in the world.

  Wow! Anna it was awesome. I have never seen such a beautiful place ever before. I felt as if I am walking in heaven. You should have also come with us Anna. You really missed out something. Anna was listening to samaira and was very happy to see her back to life.

  You had seen, enjoyed your time, I am happy in that only. I don’t want anything else darling. I know that, Andrew will not bore you, after all he is a very good entertainer also.

  ‘ Am I right Andrew?’ asks Anna

  My pleasure mam, thank you very much for having faith in me.

  Ok mam, I think I should leave now, it's time now.

  Ok.. Good bye mam, good bye samaira, saying this he leaves from there.

  Anna and samaira also both went to their bedroom.

  ‘I have something to tell you Anna.’

  ‘ Yes, darling, tell me.’

  ‘ I am in love with Andrew, we have both decided to get married and then I will settle in Europe with him.’

  ‘ Even I like Andrew too. He is a good guy.’ Says Anna

  ‘ So you will talk to papa about this? You have to convince him for our marriage.’

  ‘ Anything for you my darling. I will try my best to convince him.’ Says Anna to samaira with concern.

  Next day Anna was in bed as she has to take a rest and not to put stress on her foot which was injured. So samaira got ready to go out with Andrew.

  ‘ Today you got ready so soon, so early samaira. Looking very excited also’. Andrew will come at 10 ‘O clock my darling. At least have a cup of tea with me, then after your marriage you will forget this old lady. Anna was taunting samaira.

  ‘ What Anna? How can I forget you? You are everything for me. I cannot leave you Anna. After marriage, I will ask Andrew to come and stay in my home. I will ask him to come and settle in India.’ Says samaira

  ‘ Oh darling don’t get so serious. I was just joking.’

  While chattering and having tea together when time passes away, they did not know. Suddenly, samaira’s eye goes on the wall clock, the time was 10 past 10min.

  ‘ Hey, Anna its more than 10am . But by this time Andrew reaches away. Wait I will check out at reception.

  She asks the manager about Andrew, but he also did not have any information. She tried to call him on his mobile, but it was showing ‘out of coverage area’. She was waiting, getting restless, moving here and there like a tennis ball. As the time was passing, the tension was mounting, different kinds of thoughts were juggling in her mind.

  Suddenly, a call came in the reception that, ‘ Andrew has met with a road accident, he is no more.’ As manager gave this news to samaira she was shocked. She got shunned for a moment. She felt that everything has stopped moving. She could not breath as if her heart stopped beating. She could not hear anything and she was feeling like everything is black around, no light, no color, no people around. Her senses could not work and understand anything for a moment. She falls down on a floor, manager helps her, and take her to the bedroom where Anna was having rest.

  Manager tells about Andrew to Anna, she understands the whole story.

  ‘ Do you need anything mam? May I help you. should I call upon a doctor if baby is not feeling well.’ Manager asks Anna.

  No, thank you so much, she will be fine. You can go now.’ Anna replies

  Samaira was lying on bed beside Anna. The tears were flowing continuously from her eyes. She was lying like a dead body. Anna became restless. She tries to talk to her. She calls her many times.

  ‘ Speak out my darling. You will die with this pain, this pain will not let you live. Speak to me my child.’

  Samaira sobbed out. She lies her head on Anna’s laps.

  I loved him from my whole heart and soul. We decided to get married soon. I cannot survive Anna, please help me. Tell me what should I do? Crying loudly. He died because of me, if he would have gone earlier this unfortunate incident would have not happened. He went so late in night that’s why he met with accident. Just all because of me Anna.

  ‘No, darling, no……..

  You are not responsible for his death. It was destiny. He had this much of life only. Don’t blame yourself.’

  ‘I don’t want to stay here anymore Anna, please take me back to India.’

  ‘Yes, we will, move out my child.’ Anna pampers samaira like a small child and tears were falling continuously from Anna’s eyes also.

  Nobody has enough of time,

  Just to think an
d revive.

  No matter what’s going around,

  Just because you are careless about.

  Many people come in your life,

  Without some you cannot survive.

  Just one person make you think again and again,

  Why these moments are going in vein?

  Cannot hold those moments which were short,

  But they have left footprints in my heart.

  After three days they fly back to india. Now there was more pain in samaira’s heart. She went from this place to Europe for a change, but that change was so dangerous and heart breaking that she herself don’t know whether the pieces of her heart will get join back or not.

  ‘ Anna I don’t like this room.’ Says samaira

  ‘ What happened, darling?’ Anna asked in a concerned voice.

  I don’t like anything here. These paintings, these satin curtains with velvety sofa and this soft painted walls, nothing. These things are irritating me. They remember me the old bitter stories which I don’t want to recall again. They are making me more depressed. Where should I go? Oh god… I feel like to run away from here. Tell me Anna, please help me to get out of this. Samaira hugged Anna and cried for a long time.

  Chapter 12:

  Mr.Gomes

  ‘ Hello, ya I will be there.’ He ended the call while sitting in his office. He calls upon his secretary. A pretty young girl comes in his cabin.

  Yes sir,

  Raima what’s my schedule for tomorrow?

  You have two meetings, sir. One is with the delegates coming from Australia and another one is visiting to ‘ project area of development in buildcon Pvt Ltd.’

  ‘ I have one more meeting tomorrow, visit to Mr. Samson’s house. Do remember it, note it down.’

  ‘ So what’s up today? You are looking sexy. Come we will have coffee.’ Mr.gomes speaks to his secretary, trying to get some relief from hectic work and enjoy some time with her.

  Mr. gomes was one of the known interior designer in the city. He was famous for his work. He had a good attractive personality with a medium height and 35+ years of age. He was a married man, but he never tells anybody about his marriage. He was one of the greatest flirt in his town. His wife knows him very well. She says that he can sleep with any girl as he has no moral ethics and can cheat any women.

  His wife defines him as ‘Lady killer’. She says that, he can attract any women he wants. Mrs. Gomes is a social women, she works as a social worker. According to her, she is the one who is carrying relationship of marriage with Mr.gomes otherwise, no women can spend a whole life after knowing his nature. But Mrs.gomes is a very matured lady, she says that men are like this only. They cannot leave this habit of using women for their desires and spice in life.

  ‘ Hello Mam, myself, Mr. Gomes.’ he introduces himself to Anna After reaching to her house.

  ‘ Hello sir. I was waiting for you only. Come, I will show you the room which is to be renovated.’ Anna takes Mr. Gomes to samaira’s bedroom.

  ‘ This is the room where new interior has to be designed. I want a new look in this room. Everything has to be changed even the floor also.’ Says Anna to Mr.Gomes

  ‘ Well mam, that will be done, you just clear this room completely, from next week I will start away the work of renovation for this room. And I know that there is no problem with the budget, as this is Mr. Samson’s house, I will do the best job and get your desired room you want.’

  ‘ Ok, I take your leave mam, see you next week.’ Saying this he went away from there.

  Anna shifted samaira in another bedroom.

  Mr. Gomes started visiting to samaira’s house very frequently. One day samaira was sitting in the living room, when Mr. gomes came. Anna and samaira were having tea.

  ‘ I have never seen this beautiful lady before.’ Mr.gomes asks pointing towards samaira.

  ‘ She is the daughter of Mr. Samson, samaira. You are designing her room only.’ Replies Anna.

  ‘ It's good, you told me that the room is of such a pretty girl. I have to design the room accordingly. In beautiful room she will have beautiful dreams and then she will remember me also. A pretty girl remembring me, it would be great for me.’ Mr. gomes started flattering samaira.

  ‘ The interior I will design but mam it will be good if you tell me the kind of taste you want in your room.’ Says Mr.gomes

  ‘ Yes samaira, why don’t you give some time and interest for designing your room with Mr.Gomes. It will be good experience for you also. You can get each and everything according to your choice in your room.’ Says Anna to samaira.

  Samaira get convinced and ready to do so. Next day Mr.gomes takes samaira to ‘ Lifestyle furnishing’ Where all the fittings and home décor items in separate floors were provided. On first floor all tiles and bathroom fittings were provided. They started from first floor.

  ‘ See mam, from here we will start making choice for furnishing your bedroom. Here you will get every kind of flooring you want for your bedroom.’ Mr.Gomes explains to samaira.

  That was a huge building. At every floor there was a separate section of all types of house furnishing, fittings and decoration.

  ‘ Oh my god, I cannot decide. So many varieties of flooring material are here. I will get confused Mr.gomes, you only decide for my room.’ Says samaira

  Hey beautiful lady, Don’t take stress on your mind, I am here to help you out. It’s my job and for you, anything mam. You must be tired, come… let’s move…. I will take you to a nice place, where you will feel fresh.

  Mr.gomes takes samaira to a coffee shop, which was in a quiet area, out of the market place. He usually comes here, as this is his favorite place.

  ‘ Tell me, what you will have, tea or coffee or something else……’ he asks samaira looking into her eyes.

  ‘ Anything will do Mr.gomes.’ replies samaira innocently

  ‘ Shall I order champagne, then? A celebration in the company of a pretty women.’

  ‘ I don’t drink. I can have cold coffee I meant Mr.Gomes.’

  Ok. Fine…

  Hello……

  Get one cold coffee for mam.

  Ok, sir… replies the waiter

  Mr.Gomes looks towards samaira very passionately. Whenever samaira’s eyes turns towards Mr.gomes , she notice that he is staring her with desire. She ignores it out. But somewhere she was understanding his feelings towards her and also observed that he is getting attracted towards her.

  They finished up with their coffee and then left from there. Mr.gomes dropped her at her house.

  ‘ Bye mam, see you soon. Do remember me, think about me if you get time.’ Saying this he went away.

  Samaira kept thinking for a long time that, why he said such words. She sat in front of the mirror and started wondering that, she is so beautiful that, anybody falls in love with her.

  The most colorful stage of life,

  When without friends no one would strive.

  Sharing away beautiful moments together,

  Always in naughty mood and nothing to bother.

  Just crazy about ones looks and dreams,

  Want to have different unique glimpse.

  No place for tension and worries,

  Still mind after someone when feelings cannot burry.

  Chapter 13:

  Aaaah, is there anything special today? You seem very happy darling.

  I am always happy Anna. You know that. I believe in enjoying life. So, we all should live life with desires, hope, happiness, love and all good things Anna.

  Where is tea Anna? I want to have tea with you.

  Anna was amazed. She kept on starring samaira for a few minutes. Such a drastic change in her behavior in few days. Anna was very happy to see samaira in such a good mood. She brought tea for both of them. They both sat together for long hours and chattered a lot.

  ‘Ok, Anna time to get

  She goes to get ready soon.

  Wow!... samaira you looking so pretty. Is there something special today? Asks Anna

  ‘No Anna, today is nothing special. But I am special Anna.’ Says samaira with an attitude.

  After some time Mr. gomes reach samaira’s house. Seeing samaira, he could not see anything else. He kept away starring her with big eyes to samaira. One assistant was there with Mr.gomes, whom he brought with him to show samaira’s house and room where the renovation has to be done. He kept on asking Mr. Gomes,

  ‘Hello…sir…. What is to be done?

  Sir….sir…….sir…….’

  Then again, he called with a loud voiced to Mr. gomes,

  ‘Sirsss…………’

  Mr.gomes comes out of his dreams

  Ya….ya…….

  You, look over this room, the work is to be finished within one month. Ok. You can ask me if you have any queries regarding the interior or, material to be used for this room. I don’t want any compromise to be done with work.

  Ok….

  Mr. gomes told his assistant to look after the work and asked samaira to have a cup of coffee with him. Samaira took Mr.gomes in the living room and there she told servants to bring two cup of coffee. Anna was busy with her gardening work, she was very fond of planting trees. It was a good time for Mr.gomes to flatter samaira.

  ‘ you are looking marvelous samaira, I am unable to move my eyes from you.’

  Samaira knew that Mr.gomes is getting attracted towards her beauty. She liked the attention of Mr.gomes towards herself. Afterall nineteen is age of attraction. Samaira was also getting attracted towards Mr.gomes.

  Mr. gomes does not feel like to move from there but, he got an important call for which he has to go.

  ‘Ok, samaira, now I have to leave. There is one important meeting with client. But I will come soon to spend some time with you.’ Saying this he went from there.

  Oh… Anna, sometimes I feel that time is not moving, why days are becoming so long?
