In Love Unnatural things come Naturally to you.... :-) !!!

This is quite an unusual love story. As the title suggests there is some amount of MAGIC always present whenever and wherever LOVE is concerned [;)]. I shall now Begin my story of LOVE with a little bit of MAGIC and REALITY..

Scene 1 Begins...About 2 Years ago:

There was this guy called Adam, who was a very nice person. He was kind, humble, good hearted, caring and all the good adjectives could be added here in his praise :-). He was in short a GEM of a PERSON :-). It was in his nature and attitude to help those in need. Every needy person who came across him was also served with respect and in turn used to shower blessing on him. So, finally this guy Adam became one of the luckiest man alive on this earth. Once an old blind man was ahving trouble while crossing a road, Adam was on his daily joggin routine at that time and he immediately came down to help this old blind man cross the street. The old man was quite pleased and in gratitude he gave a boon to Adam saying "My dear Son, you are a good man at heart you deserve to get a boon. I grant you a boon that in your life you will be able to see the future twice. Once it will be at your own wish and the next time it will be at God's wish"

Adam just smiled at this. It seems he never believed it :-).

Scene 2 Begins: Love enters in his life.. ;-)

One fine day at Adam's office, came a girl called Anaida. She was everything Adam could dream of, she was beautiful, smart and had a smile that could steal anyone's heart ;-). So, she did steal Adam ka heart ;-). Well, no one in the office was unaware or unaffected by Adam's charm. So, how could Anaida be different. She and Adam became very good friends. Adam was surely in love with Anaida and Anaida too liked him very much. But did she love him???

Scene 3 Begins: When the first part of BOON came true..

It was about an year that Adam and Anaida had known each other. Everybody believed they make the BEST couple. Adam decided to take their relationship one step ahead and so he decided to propose Anaida. Adam zeroed down to Valentine's day as the day to propose Anaida, he was very happy about it and was ready with all his plans for the most amazing proposal. But, like any normal person he was having his doubts..[Kya ye hai kahani mein twist ;-)].. He prayed to God a little harded and said to HIM, how I wished I had known what was is store for me in next 5 years.... AND THEN IT HAPPENED.. Adam had a VISION.. and he saw what would happen after next 5 years....[Thrill and excitement begins..]

VISION:

After 5 years Adam saw that he was in a lovely house at a breakfast table. He had a kid sittin next to him who was exact replica of Adam himself :-). Then he saw a lady come out of kitchen with delicious breakfast trays. And that pretty lady was none other that Anaida herself :-) !!! Amazing isn't it?? What Adam saw was nothing short of how Adam wanted things to be. He was happily married with the girl of his dreams ... what more could he wish for :-)

Scene 4 Begins.. [The Valentine's day..]

Adam was blooming with hapiness and was all set to execute his plans for the D DAY ;-). He met Anaida that day in a restaurant for Lunch. He had imagined that she would also be excited like him and then things would be lot easier.. But, Adam noticed that Anaida was not her usual self that day.. she was bit nervous and scared.. When Adam asked her about she dint say anything... Adam was little disappointed but nevertheless he decided to postpone his proposing ceremony to some other day.. meanwhile he just concentrated on cheering up Anainda.. And Why not, he knew now that she was going to be his forever... :-) so Adam was a bit relaxed.

Scene 5 Begins.. [Now comes the kahani mein twist ;-)]

About 1 month from Valentine's day, One Sunday afternoon, Adam was about to meet Anaida. Anaida called Adam and said that she had a great news for him. Adam was dreaming of all the possibilities that could be involving him and Anaida.. when he reached the restaurant where they usually meet, Adam saw that they had a company. Anaida had brought his Boyfriend Aman along with her and today was the day when she wanted to intoduce him to her friend Adam. Well... this is what happens when you delay in acting on your feelings.. Anaida told Adam that she had met Aman on the valentine's day. That afternoon when Anaida had come to meet Adam she was worried because she had been getting some cranky calls from a guy who had been bothering her since a week. This crazy guy had threatened her saying he was madly in love with her and would marry her or kill her. That evening when she was going back to her, this crazy guy had attacked her and it was then that she met Aman who saved her life. Bas fir kya tha hero ne right time pe entry ki heroine ki jaan bachai... AUR PYAR HO GAYA... ;-)

Scene 6 Begins...[Jab Dil He Toot gaya..]

After learning about Aman from Anaida Adam realized that the couple did have something special. Something that Adam and Anaida never had. This made him feel even worse... He lost all his charm.. His usual Happy go Lucky attitude died away... He took a long vacation from his office and went to visit his old Aunt who was his only relative alive. His aunt was also worried and tried to cheer him up. She introduced him to many nice girls but he seemed to be lost in his own world. He Kept on thinking why did he ever had that vision if nothing was going to be that way. He was too depressed and in his depression he asked God "Why did you lie to me in my Vision..that I will have a happy life with Anaida when I know I can never have her..What will I do without her? What will my future be without her..?"

Scene 7 Begins...[The second part of BOON..]

They say that a prayer from a noble heart never goes unanswered.. and so God did answer Adam. He gave his SECOND VISION.. A vision which was the reason of his first vision.. Adam saw that its raining heavily somewhere and the night is quite dark.. All the lights are gone out and there is road with speeding cars. He then sees Aman running down the road with flowers in his hand and a smile on his face.. At this time Adam realizes that the place he is seeing is near Anaida's home.. But what Adam sees next is something he dint want to.. He sees that as Aman takes a turn into the dark street there's a speeding car which drives right into him without any prior warning.. Aman is suddenly throw right up in the air with such a force that the Smile he had on his face didnt get the time to fade away and be replaced by Shock.. Before he could realize that he was struck by a car and probably there was any chance that he would survive this accident.. he was already dead and numb as soon as he hit the wet road and that smile freezed on his face... :-(.. Then he saw sad Anaida at Aman's funeral...
The vision thus ended..

Scene 8 Begins [Some body in Dilemma]:
Now, Adam realized why in his first vision he saw that he and Anaida are going to be happy together in next five years... Adam didnot know what he should do now.. He could not figure out if he should warn Aman n Anaida about his second vision or he should just let things be the way they are.. He decided to fly back to Anaida. He had to see her before he decides something. On his flight back he was thinking if he should do something to save Aman. But that would mean he can never have Anaida in his life. He then thought if he could just forget everything and may be none of this will ever be real or true.. as soon his flight landed Adam calls up Anaida. Anaida sounded happy on the phone, Adam though deep in his heart that may be Anaida missed him badly and that is why she sounded so happy on hearing his voice over the phone. And he realized that he can never let her go away from his life as he cant live without her.. Then Anaida gave him the news. She told him that she just got a call from Aman and he said that his parents have finally agreed for their marriage. She also told Adam that now Aman is on his way to Anaida's home so that he could talk to Anaida's parents and ask her hand in marriage :-). That was the reason Anaida was so happy and excited on the phone. It hurt Adam to realize that it was Aman and not him who was the reason of her happiness. at the same time it struck him that its raining heavily and now is the time when his second vision might really come true..

Scene 9 : [Tiem for some Action]
Adam he had to act and act now. He just kept the phone down and rushed to Anaida's home. He got a taxi outside the airport and in hurry he gives the address to the driver. The driver was new and hence he was not aware of the place. At this he asks driver to shift and he himself comes in the driver's place.. The driver obvioulsy got scared seeing the pace at which his customer was driving but he kept his mouth and eyes closed. Adam was driving nervously because all the way he was worried how he was goin to stop that accident. He was nearing Anaida's home. And suddenly all the lights went out. It was just another major power failure during rainy season. At this time something struck Aman. He tried to revisualize what he ahd seen in his vision. And now he was surprised and shocked that he was near that street where he had witnessed the scene. It was all the more scary when he realized that the car which hit aman was the same one which he was driving right now. Before he could conclude that he was the one who hit Aman and killed him, He applied all his strength on the brakes of the taxi he was driving and turned his steering wheel. And he did it in time to avoid runnning into the person who suddenly appeared out of nowher on that dark street. What was worse was that in the process of doing so the taxi lost its control and hit the nearby lamp post and directly ran into the fence of the house at the turn. The fence crashed into the windshield of the car instantly killing the driver who was Adam.... Meanwhile the actual driver was thrown out of the car as the door of his side flew open when the taxi had hit the lamp post. He was not hurt at all. But, there was no way Adam could have survived :(. In this entire episode, Aman was the one who was suposed to die and Adam was the one ti win Anaida. But as the title says "In Love unnatural things come naturally to you..!!!"
[Note:] This is why I say you never know when a boon turns into a curse. When Love takes some body's life and when you cannot answer whether Love Wins here or Loose. I know it has sad ending. But in the end finally the two people who loved each other did end up happily with each other :-). I would leave upto the readers to judge if it was sad or happy ending :-). Comments are most welcome and I am waiting for them!!! This story is based on concept given by Mayur Madhwani :-) !!!

hi neha!
when he s driving n revisualizes.. its adam rite nt aman as u ve written.
secondly well written again..
bt if adam ws such a good man n the visions he saw were true.. then the reality cant change.. even if he tries to.. wat u cud ve done to give a twist here is.. tell the readers only part of the vision.eg.
the dining table scene. where adam sees anaida.. n a lovely kid.. bt he only sees the back of a man(so it isnt clear whether its him or aman)bt he assumes its him.
2ndly the accident. tat the car hits aman.. full stop.
actually adam tries to save aman.. so though he s hit aman survives bt the car eventually crashes.
... jus my suggestions.. tat wud bring the same end as urs.. though tragic tat it is.. bt it wil be true...
n a true sacrifice on the part of adam..

hi meenal.. yes it was adam who revisualizes it and not Aman i will correct that..
Here, both the visions were true and the kind of man Adam was, only he could change them :). The reason Adam was gifted these visions was that he was a good man. But to prove that he was good man and not selfish it is necessary to show that he sacrifices. Secondly, if I say that adam hits aman but aman survives and Adam dies it will be like fate taking over and not that Adam actually sacrifices himself. Which will make Adam appear as ordinary and not Hero which I intended. Not sure if this is good justification but tats from me :). I m trying to justify here coz, I thought of innumerable endings and what u r suggesting I managed to disaprove with this justification. that such an ending what you r suggesting would seem dramatic(aman surviving inspite of hit which is as per vision number 2) and if adam dies after hitting then it doesnot show adam as hero.

Well now i can safely fortell ur future ... sooner or later u r going to quit the software industry and move to sript writing bussiness ... seriously CAUGHT IN THE WRONG JOB :) :) .. BTW the end was not as i was expecting, i thought Anaida would die and uske viraah main ADAM will die as well then they meet in heaven ..well surelly u can accomodate in part 2 of the story ... waise ek cheez i want know itne kaam age main itna ghyan aaya kaha se tere pass ... But really it was good ... keep it up .... :)
