Barish ki ek thandi sham thi. Aditya ek chhoti si chai ki dukaan par baitha tha, apne haathon mein ek purani diary thamkar. Uske chehre par ek halki si muskaan thi, lekin aankhon mein ek ankahee udaasi chhupi hui thi. Diary ke panne palat-te hue uski aankhen ek khat par thami, jise likha tha uski zindagi ke sabse pyare insaan ne – Priya.
Aditya aur Priya ki mulakat college ke pehle din hui thi. Woh dono ek dusre ke bilkul ulte the – Aditya shant aur soch mein dooba hua, aur Priya ek chulbuli hansi aur sapno se bhari ladki. Pehli baar jab Priya ne Aditya se baat ki, usne kaha, "Tum itna chup kyun rehte ho? Zindagi ko thodi si awaaz do!" Aditya muskura diya, aur us din se Priya uski zindagi ki awaaz ban gayi.
Din guzarte gaye, aur dono ke beech ek gehra rishta ban gaya. Priya har chhoti baat mein Aditya ko hasati, aur Aditya uske sapno ko haqiqat mein badalne ki koshish karta. Ek din, Priya ne kaha, "Aditya, agar kabhi hum alag hue, toh tum mujhe bhool mat jana." Aditya ne hanskar jawab diya, "Tum meri wajah ho jeene ki, tujhe kaise bhool sakta hoon?"
Lekin zindagi hamesha waisa nahi chalti jaisa hum sochte hain. Ek din Priya ko pata chala ki usse ek rare bimari hai, jiska ilaaj takreeban namumkin tha. Usne Aditya se yeh baat chhupayi, kyunki woh nahi chahti thi ki uska pyar uske dard ka hissa bane. Lekin Aditya ko ek din sach pata chal hi gaya. Usne Priya se kaha, "Tum mujhe akela chhodkar nahi ja sakti. Hum saath mein ladenge isse." Priya ro padi aur boli, "Aditya, main thak gayi hoon. Tumhe azad rehna chahiye."
Aakhirkaar, ek sard raat Priya Aditya ke haathon mein apna haath rakhte hue hamesha ke liye so gayi. Usne jaane se pehle ek khat likha tha, jo Aditya ab padh raha tha. Khat mein likha tha:
"Aditya, meri wajah se kabhi udaas mat hona. Main tumhare dil mein hamesha zinda rahungi. Har barish mein mujhe dhoondhna, kyunki wahan main tumse milne aaungi. Tum meri zindagi ka sabse khoobsurat hissa the. Mujhe maaf karna, aur khush rehna."
Aditya ki aankhon se aansoon tapakne lage. Usne diary band ki aur barish mein khada ho gaya. Baarish ki boondein uske chehre par gir rahi thi, aur usse laga jaise Priya sach mein uske paas hai, uske aansuon ko chhoo rahi ho. Woh roye ja raha tha, lekin dil mein ek ajeeb sa sukoon tha – kyunki Priya ka pyar uske saath hamesha tha, chahe woh physically na ho.
Barish tham gayi, lekin Aditya ka dil ab bhi bheega hua tha – pyar aur yaadon ke saath.
