The lost soulmate (Final part)
August 31, 2009
Read on the third and final part: -
A couple of years from the time when the present story ended – in the Vasant Kunj area of New Delhi was born Reema, the first daughter of a newly wed couple. Three years later in the life of another happy couple, living a few blocks away, arrived a sweet little girl named Smriti.
As to what happened to Farah and Sachin – At the heaven’s gate on that fateful day Farah cried uncontrollably. She never had a tear in all her years spent in living with a broken heart but today her soul cried so loud that it made the universe shudder. She went crazy, she ran about shrieking searching for Sachin all over. An uncontrollable pain cut through her, a pain of not being able to meet her soulmate even after death. There was nothing else that she could do. She had lost him forever. So she sat there and sobbed without any hope.
An angel then appeared and asked her what the matter was. The angel heard her story and explained to her that she couldn’t meet Sachin because he never came to heaven’s door. He went to hell.
Farah didn’t understand, she asked, “But why? He never did any thing wrong why did he go to hell? He was a dutiful son who sacrificed his happiness for his parent’s sake, he was loyal to me and after his marriage he remained loyal to his wife. How can he go to hell?”
“God decides in mysterious ways my child,” said the angel smiling. “Nothing kills God more than causing pain to a heart. Sachin broke 3 hearts. He should have returned love with love. Know this always, that there is no greater a sin than not doing what your heart desires.”
Farah wasn’t very impressed hearing all that. She refused to accept God’s decision or the rationale behind it. She got even angrier realizing that it was because of God that they couldn’t be together in earth and now the arrogant super being was trying to control their after life too, this she thought was the most vindictive of all actions.
She was infuriated and demanded she be united with Sachin whether it is in heaven or hell or in between. She gave two hoots about heaven anymore and was more than pleased to travel to hell to meet Sachin.
But since God was God, he had to play his part. He couldn’t let humans have their way ever, so he decided that the only way they could be united was if they were reborn as humans.
So, few years later the soul mates were reborn but alas the saga of wandering souls still continued.

Sorry to play spoilsport here, but I didn’t like the ending. Should have ended the story in the second part itself. The statement from God isn’t convincing. Farrah wasn’t convinced at God’s explanation. Nor was I.
But overall, a good attempt. Keep writing.
Cheers

Fair enough. God was considerate, gave them a chance.
