"System activated…" yeh shabd jaise kisi machine ki awaaz me goonje, aur us pal Aarav ko samajh aa gaya ki ab baat sirf pyaar ya bimari tak simit nahi rahi… kuch bahut bada aur khatarnak ho chuka hai. Usne dheere se khud ko sambhala aur uthkar phir se Meera ki taraf badha. Uska dil darr se bhara tha, lekin uska pyaar us darr se kahin zyada strong tha.
"Meera… meri taraf dekho… please… main hoon, Aarav…" usne halki awaaz me kaha, jaise woh uske andar chhupi asli Meera ko wapas bulana chahta ho.
Meera bilkul seedhi khadi thi, uski aankhen ab bhi safed thi, aur uska chehra bilkul expressionless. Jaise uske andar se emotions hi khatam ho gaye ho. Uske aas-paas ki hawa ab bhi heavy thi, aur zameen halki si vibrate kar rahi thi.
Aarav dheere dheere uske paas gaya, har kadam sambhal kar. "Tum koi machine nahi ho… tum Meera ho… tumhe yaad hai na… woh library… woh park… humari shaadi…"
Jaise hi Aarav ne "shaadi" ka lafz bola… Meera ke chehre par ek halka sa reaction aaya. Uski aankhon ki safedi me thodi si halchal hui.
Aarav ne turant kaha, "Haan Meera… yaad karo… tumne kaha tha na ki tum mujhe kabhi chhod kar nahi jaogi…"
Kuch pal ke liye sab kuch shaant ho gaya. Hawa ruk gayi. Energy wave dheere dheere kam hone lagi.
Aarav ke chehre par ek chhoti si umeed ki chamak aayi. "Yes… tum wapas aa rahi ho…"
Lekin achanak…
Meera ne apna haath uthaya… aur Aarav ki taraf point kiya…
Aarav ruk gaya.
Meera ki awaaz phir se wahi machine jaisi ho gayi, "Target detected…"
Aarav ka dil zor se dhadakne laga. "Meera… yeh main hoon…"
Meera ek kadam aage badhi… "Threat level: High…"
Aarav ne darr ke saath peeche kadam liya, "Nahi… main tumhara Aarav hoon… tum mujhe hurt nahi kar sakti…"
Lekin Meera jaise kuch sun hi nahi rahi thi.
Uske haath ke aas-paas ek bright energy ball banne lagi…
Aarav ki aankhen shock se phail gayi. "Meera stop!!!"
Usne zor se chillaya, "Tum mujhe maar nahi sakti… tum mujhse pyaar karti ho!!!"
Yeh sunte hi ek pal ke liye Meera ka haath ruk gaya…
Uski aankhon me phir se woh purani Meera ki jhalak dikhne lagi…
"Ar… Aarav…" usne dheere se kaha…
Energy ball kam hone lagi…
Aarav ne turant aage badh kar uska haath pakad liya, "Haan… main yahin hoon… tumhe yaad hai sab…"
Meera ke aansu nikalne lage… "Mujhe bachao…"
Aarav ne usse gale laga liya, "Main hoon na… kuch nahi hoga…"
Lekin usi pal…
Door pahaadon ke peeche se ek helicopter ki awaaz aayi… 🚁
Aarav ne upar dekha…
Ek black helicopter unki taraf aa raha tha…
Aur uske neeche ek bada sa symbol bana hua tha — wahi symbol jo file me tha… Project M-17
Meera ka chehra phir se badalne laga…
Usne darr ke saath kaha, "Woh log wapas aa gaye…"
Helicopter dheere dheere unke upar hover karne laga…
Ek loudspeaker se awaaz aayi, "Subject M-17… surrender immediately…"
Aarav ne Meera ka haath aur zor se pakad liya, "Main tumhe nahi dunga…"
Lekin is baar situation aur zyada dangerous thi…
Helicopter se ek bright light seedha Meera par focus ki gayi…
Aur jaise hi woh light us par padi…
Meera zor se cheekhi…
"Aaahhhh!!!"
Uska body hawa me uthne laga…
Aarav ne usse pakadne ki koshish ki…
"Meera!!!"
Lekin uska haath fisal gaya…
Suspense
Meera dheere dheere hawa me upar uth rahi thi… aur Aarav use pakad nahi pa raha tha… 😨
👉 Kya Meera ko woh log wapas le jayenge?
👉 Ya Aarav kisi tarah use bacha paayega… ya phir yeh unka aakhri milna tha? 💔😢
