"Celebrating" Death - I

Sandhya: What are you looking at?
Samar :You. And thinking about how lucky I am.
Sandhya: Oh really!
Samar: Ya. I don't know what I would do without you.
Sandhya: And what if I was not with you.
Samar: What do you mean?
Sandhya: I mean if something happened to me. Then?
Samar: Don't ever say that ok.
Sandhya: Ok come on. Let's see what are the odds that I will survive.
Samar: I know you will survive. We have got the best doctors to treat you. Come on let's get ready, you have an appointment today and we are getting late.
Sandhya: Why are you changing the topic?
Samar: I am not. We are getting late.
Sandhya: Alright don't push me. I will fall off the bed. 
Samar: And I will hold you.

Poorva: Bhaiya (Brother) have you had your breakfast?
Samar: Not yet.
Poorva: It's there on the table.
Samar: Poorva please leave me alone.
Poorva: Ok. But mom and dad want to talk to you.
Samar: About what?
Poorva: I don't know. I just overheard their conversation.
Samar: Ok now leave the room. I want to be left alone.
Mr. Shah: Samar
Samar: Yes dad.
Mr. Shah: Your mom and I want to talk to you about something.
Samar: About what?
Mrs. Shah: About your attitude. We are all very sad about Sandhya's death and we all did what we could, but it's been six months dear. You have got to get over it.
Mr. Shah: Your mom is right. We all know it's difficult but we all have to face it.
Samar: What do you want me to do? I have tried so hard to get over it but I fail everyday. Nothing matters anymore. Sandhya was everything to me and now she has gone in a heart beat. Life is over for me. I don't have anything to live for. I feel so suffocated here in this world.
Mr. Shah: You need a break son. Why don't you go to Rakesh uncle's house for a few days and relax.
Samar: You know what. You guys will never understand the pain I am going through. All I need to do is get out of this house and out of your lives. That's what I need.
Mrs. Shah: Calm down and don't talk to your dad like this.
Samar: I am out and I am never going to come back again.
