Years have passed but the memories of Naman which Riya
had stored in her brain had never faded exponentially. After two years, while
browsing social media, Riya found a profile picture in which Naman was there with
another girl. Later, when going into the profile, to see the exact thing, she
found that Naman was married to someone from his surrounding who was elder than
him in age and did not belong to his caste as well. Riya got shocked to find
that whatever he told his criteria to Riya for marriage, did not match his
present situation. She was pretty sure that she was being cheated by him in
real sense. In order to vent out her feeling she started journaling her
feelings in form of a letter she wrote.
To the Cheater, (Here cheater is indicated
to Naman)
I don’t know whether you would read this article or
not. I thank you for leaving my side in the worst phase of my life because I
got to know the real version of you then. Some people stay in one’s side when
things are merely perfect and leave when things fall apart. You did the same
and proved that you are no different than those “some people” who wanted to
bring a positive change to my life ironically. I did not like the way you had
ghosted me without clarifying the reason. Though I had tried to contact you
several times to sort out the issue but everything was in vain. The sudden
disappearance of you like a chemical reactant giving out the product was
unpredictable for me. The last words of our conversation is still intact to my
brain that it’s better to stay single than to marry. And see, what you did. To
complete your motive, you searched someone from your surrounding and get
hitched as quickly as possible as if what I did to you were fruitless. The
interesting part is that the that girl neither satisfies your criteria (that
you had described me) nor your family. Even it’s the game of upper age as well.
It had wowed me the moment your picture with her in one of the social media
platforms flashed before my eyes. It hurt me the moment I saw both of you because
I felt the commitments that you had made to me are being fulfilled with her. I
know that she is more qualified, but does that make one change the partner
soon. If this is the case, then you would be keep on changing partners for life
and I am pretty sure that will happen.
Somewhere in my heart, I fell a stone has been
removed. I feel free now because I wanted to go back to sort things out and
always wanted to think that whatever has happened it was because of my fault. You
know, it’s very difficult to stay with a regret. But, see god has saved me
again by showing me the true side. Sometimes past moments do flash in my eyes.
But, I have also learned to move on. I agree to the fact that, I learned it a
bit late.
Being a writer, I like to express my emotions through
my words. That’s what I am doing right now. I am not sure whether the words
would reach to you in anyway. But I congratulate you for whatever you have done
in your personal and professional front. May you feel the same agony; I have
experienced because of you. I know that there is something called Karma and It
is very powerful. I just want you to see my comeback in my area soon. May be
then you would realise what a gem you have lost in your life. Till then, enjoy
your phony world.
RIYA
Now,
it’s up to readers to think that was it right for Naman to leave Riya because
he found someone more suitable than her from his surrounding? Was love of Riya
not enough for him?
Stay tuned for part 3
