I am ready for the Time Travel, even if it means me staying back in 2016, whispered Aarush.
It is 2021, a hard decision in Aarush’s life, but he needs to take it today. Sitting beside Nidhi’s bed, as she was lying. Aarush touched his wife Nidhi’s cheeks maybe one last time!
‘When you get up, our lives will change forever.’
We do not give up on people we love
Aarush has been trying to bring back smile on Nidhi’s face, as she was the only reason for which Aarush believes in love. Nidhi was never devoid of spreading her compassion whosoever crossed her path.
It pains greatly when Aarush finds Nidhi unable to sleep at night, and even if she falls asleep Aarush can find tears rolling down from Nidhi’s eyes.
Aarush being a psychiatrist started to realize that a part of Nidhi’s soul is stuck somewhere, which she is unable to understand, and he is unable to help her.
He needed to make a decision today.
Aarush’s grandpa was a scientist, he had a room where he used to conduct all kinds of experiments. Aarush was aware that his grandpa had created a Time Machine, which would help a Time Traveler’s journey into the past and future. A push on a button and the machine sends the traveler to the time set by him.
Aarush, remembered his grandpa saying that there is just one technical glitch in his machine, which states that it will be a one-way journey, with no returning.
Aarush started walking down the aisle towards his grandpa’s room.
The distance of the aisle seemed long, tonight.
Down the memory lane, he remembered meeting Nidhi in his medical college. Nidhi, was a bright student, a jovial and happy soul. An optimistic student who was never competitive in sharing her knowledge with her fellow medical friends. Aarush has started respecting and admiring her.
It was during the rains in 2016, when Nidhi went on a vacation for a week with her parents. And the unfortunate accident took place, and when Nidhi came back, everything was changed.
Nidhi was unable to remember things at times, was suffering from short-term memory loss.
Aarush was always there for her, he embraced and welcomed Nidhi in his life, but she had become quiet!
Three days back Aarush told Nidhi about the psychiatric therapy session which she needs to undertake, after which everything would fall in place.
After the session when Nidhi asked Aarush about what was his observation.
Aarush said, ‘We do not give up on people we love, Isn’t it!’
Aarush has reached his grandpa’s room; he can see his grandpa was sleeping.
The Time Machine was covered by a huge white cloth. Aarush’s hand was trembling, he took off the cloth from the machine. There is a remote and its button was glowing on and off.
There is a stop clock with timer. Aarush set the time to 2nd July, 2016, and entered inside the machine room. He closed his eyes, as his body started shivering.
We do not give up on people we love
Kerala, it was raining heavily.
In front of him Nidhi is standing at the hospital’s main entrance and crying while making a phone call.
‘Varun, come fast, I have lost my parents, I don’t want to lose you. They wanted to meet you and while coming…’
Nidhi knelt down and collapsed on the ground.
The hospital people came rushing and quickly took Nidhi inside the hospital in a stretcher.
Aarush picked up Nidhi’s phone from the ground, he finds the phone’s date is 2nd July,2016.
He messaged Varun enquiring his current place and also asked him to wait there.
Varun assuming the message was from Nidhi, confirmed his location.
Aarush reached Varun’s place and saw, Varun is standing in the rains, completely drenched.
He came near Varun and said,
‘Nidhi has sent me to take you to her, can I get your car keys?’
Aarush gave a small remote to Varun and asked him to press it in the next five minutes, and also told Varun to convey an important message to Nidhi once he reaches her.
He took the driver’ seat and asked Varun to make a U-turn and come from the opposite direction, when Varun was walking the turn. Aarush drove away the car in full speed without taking Varun inside!
He started remembering, he had read in the newspaper that two car accidents took place that night in 2016 ; one was of Nidhi’s parents and the other was of a doctor called Varun Dixit, whose car met with an accident while driving beside a cliff in the rainy night.
Aarush can now find himself driving Varun’s car on the same cliff, he closed his eyes for one last time and smiled, as he saw Nidhi waking up smiling.
Boom…
Varun was sitting beside Nidhi’s bed holding her hands. Nidhi opened her eyes and hugged Varun in excitement.
Varun whispered in her ears, ‘We do not give up on people we love, Isn’t it!’
