I will not die that early:
Room smelled of medicines, air felt cold. Time refused to advance, heart denied its pace. Lights were dimmed, walls pale and your memories, they plagued my mind.

Grow up Arnab! One needs to be serious at times!

If only I had known you will take my words this deeply, I swear I won’t have uttered them.
Life loves to play games with us. It’ll provide us with the best of pleasures and once you start enjoying the surprises it offers, it will ditch you, leave you alone to fight with the miseries it spun for you.
How happy we were with ourselves. We had everything; everything we wished. You were with me. Life was benevolent, it was beautiful.
Our failed plans, thoughtless talks, aimless walks, your annoying habit of messing up with my name… trust me… I am ready to pay anything to live them back.

Aashi… do you love me?
Shut up Arnab! You have any idea how much we are required to finish up by tomorrow! It is our finals tomorrow! Act seriously at times!

Hey Aashna! Forget it that was just a phone! I’ll get you another
No Arnab, I have been irresponsible, I need to find it! And by the way Mr. Richie rich! I don’t need a chunk of your pocket
hey! What about my heart then! you have entire of it!
you will never act seriously Arnab!

Arnab! How can you decline their offer! That was the best they offered to any student!
Aashi I am not working with any other firm! I want to work with you!
Arnab! That is madness! You lack a serious brain!

Let us elope Aashi! Our parents won’t agree.
No Arnab that is not good!
Don’t you trust me Aashi?
Be serious Arnab, I do.

How much we have gone through, but you denied drifting apart.  We witnessed the worst of times, the best of memories, yes we witnessed them together. Now that I see you this ways, I curse myself for being that rude to you.
You know you meant my world to me, we promised to depart together… you can’t ditch me, no you can’t I say.
They say you are no more, you’ve left this world, and you’ve left me alone. I deny to accept it, as I remember you said " I will not die that early."
My eyes rejects to see the scene you are projecting, my mind denies accepting it. My blood refuses to feed my cells, my heart, the one you called yours, Arnab, it is sinking.
Get up from the place I don’t want you to be in, get up I say. Don’t leave me here. Abandoned and dismayed.
Now that you have turned serious, I order you to cheer me up again.
