Adventure story 227. Crossing speed limits

                                                       Crossing speed limits
Ravi was driving his car. He was so happy. Today he was driving with Krutika for first time. It was so excellent time for drive. But he started moving on every step with one thought. That he wanted to enjoy. Krutika " You are driving so slow. Come on drive little fast." Ravi heard her and he started sensing that he was not impressing her enough. After all he wanted to drive fast. He had to drive her car with full speed. He started doing it. At beginning he felt so scared. He just kept looking at speed limit. He soon sensed that he was crossing it. But he just loved it's feel. He just wanted to sense that happiness. He wanted to feel as if he was flying. He was first time going out with Krutika. She was special. She was that girl whom every boy wanted. She was perfect in every way. She had every thing and she selected him for this bike ride. It was his first date with her and he wanted that date to turn out to be perfect in every angle. He didn't want to prove any thing wrong. He wanted to make any thing which please her. He soon sensed that crossing speed limit was not also that much bad idea. He just loved it. He started sensing pleasure of wind. Finally they reached to restaurant. It was nice one. He didn't took her to coffee shop because she was special. He needed to be treated like some great queen. After all he wanted to improve his status before all. Krutika " My god!! It was such nice ride. I just love it when some one drive like that in full speed." Ravi gave forced smile. He knew that he didn't do that every time. After all it was risky but he was not ready to tell it to Krutika so soon he didn't want to lose her. Ravi " We can drive like that on some times." Krutika " I know. But I was telling you that your driving was nice. You drive fast but not too fast. Last time I went with one boy. He was so slow in driving. I just can't imagine to sit on his bike." So she made it clear to him that if he wanted her as his girl friend. He needed to drive bike over the speed limit every time. He knew it was risky but he wanted her. Then they chatted about other things. Her every demand was reasonable. She even ordered those items which were not that much costly. In fact she took care of his budget. She was so understanding on every point that he was just too impressed. She was so nice that he just decided that bike riding could be handled. After all it was just few days hobby. He was sure that in few days she would lost interest in it after all she was a sensible girl. If she knew importance of budget then soon she would understand importance of speed limit. He just forget about it and they chatted regarding every thing. While driving back once again he drove over the speed limit. It looked nice and great. He just sensed one thing that every thing would be perfect for him. He wanted to cross that speed limit but he kept balance so every thing was going in perfect way. but many times he started getting taunts from people regarding over speeding. He hoped that Krutika would sense. But she just told him to ignore them and move ahead with full speed. She said " That people just kept suggesting. We need not to follow every one's advice." But Ravi felt scared from heart. Then after some point he also loved to drive in that full speed. He just decided it was okay. He needed Krutika with him. They started going out every day.
   Ravi was so happy when he finally passed college. He got first class. He was sure that soon he would get a nice job. He was so confidant. He decided to propose Krutika on that date. After all he could not wait any longer. Since their college was over. He knew that they could no longer meet each other. He sensed that every thing was perfect between them. He just had to do formality of proposing her. Then they would soon get married. He had planned it all. Every one in college just used to treat them like engaged couple so he had no doubt about it. But when Ravi called her, she talked in different  way. Kritika " Of course. I will come. You were my best friend in college. It was such hard to find friend like you. And I am going abroad tomorrow." " Abroad?" "Yes. I deserve it after working so hard. And then my parents search for a husband so wandering out with friend like you will be over. Our society will not understand friendship like that. " Ravi didn't said anything. He felt as if he was fool to assume so many things. After all he was nothing before her. But why didn't she sense it. He thought that he never said it clearly. She always used to treat it like joke. He had to sense on that time only that he was assuming all wrong. He didn't took hint instead of that he took diamond ring of jeweler and decided to propose her. He felt so upset. He decided that he must end it. Ravi " I can understand. In fact when I start to think of matter this way, I just felt one thing. It will wrong even take you out now." "No..NO.. it is okay." "I don't feel so. What if some one saw you with me? And they took it all wrong like your parents saying. After all we are not kids any more." "But I want freedom of at least one bike ride." "No..I am not interested ." Then Ravi disconnected mobile He looked at that ring. He didn't want any one to see his stupidity. He decided to hide it. But then suddenly one paper fell from his cupboard. It was that speed ticket which he was given when he was caught by Police officer. He just sensed that how many times he broke rules just to please her. He was so scared that what if he had done some accident on those times. She was never interested in him. He was so scared even by that thought. He just threw that ring in one corner. He didn't even wanted to cry since it was humiliating. He had made fool of himself. He started locking his emotions. But somewhere he knew that he could not forget that thought. How could he managed to be fooled like that. He thought that finally it was over. But next day his Mom came in his room. Mom " Ravi Krutika had came to meet you." "Meet me." "Yes." Krutika looked so upset. It was clear that she must be crying for entire night. Krutika " I thought again and again. But I just sensed that I didn't want to marry unknown man." Ravi " So what can I do for you?" " Ravi why are you talking like that with me?" "Because it is so wrong when you ride with me. My parents will start to assume wrong thing. Try to understand. I need to move ahead. My wife might not like to see a girl as friend in my house." "Ohh so you also decided to marry." "Yes. I have. So please go away." She went away in anger. He started crying when his Mom entered. There was tears in her eyes she must had assumed some good news. But still she gave him sweet smile out of tears and said " She is just useless girl. I will find better for you." He hugged his Mom and cried in her arms like child. On that day he took out all memories of Krutika out of his mind on every point.
     Ravi took one nice job. But on that time suddenly one nice business offer came to his Dad. They took that business. Ravi shifted to it. They both were hard worker so soon their business started getting money. Soon they were really good in their industry. They were not that rich but one thing was so sure that soon they would become rich. Any one could say it by looking at their business. Ravi was happy with career. But in case of getting married he just tried to avoid that matter. But his Mom kept telling him about different girls but it was not just working. He was just too busy and he tried to adjust and chat but he just didn't like their views. He just sense one thing that he needed some one who would understand his life style but they were different. But his Mom started taking it in wrong way. His Mom " I feel you are just searching for Krutika in those girls." "No Mom. That is not truth. I am over her." "Then why don't you like them?" "They are too different. In fact many times even those girls didn't call back which means that they also sensed it." His Mom couldn't argue against it. Since it was true most of the time those girls were not even interested. "But there must be some one." "If there is then she will come Mom." Ravi tried to avoid that matter. But then one day his Mom came running to him. His Mom " Can you belief it?" "What?" "Krutika's parents came home today. They wanted to give proposal for you. I just said yes. I must have to ask you. But I know your heart so I said yes." Ravi smiled. He was happy but still he sensed that some thing was missing his happiness was not fulfilled one. It was incomplete. He sensed that some thing was wrong. Then he thought that it was happening because he was scared. He just felt one thing. That he was scared that it would not work out as he thought because Krutika would ditched him again. He told himself that he would adjust. He knew that he must had to understand feelings towards Krutika was going to be satisfied. He just sensed one thing that he had to be happy so he just smiled. His Mom didn't ask another thing. She just began to plan for his marriage. She even started planning different home for him. Ravi"Mom I can stay here with you and Dad." "No..No you can't. Krutika couldn't manage to stay with us. Look at this house. Don't worry. We will managed perfect house to you. You need it. Krutika is rich girl. She needed every thing modern. We will give every thing to you both. Just wait and watch." His Mom was so happy. He could see those list of products. She was planning to buy. It was too long and expensive. He didn't need them all to live happy life. He just needed love but then he remembered Krutika. She might need this all. He was so confused. He wanted her from heart so he had to do it. His parents were even happy and it was not as if they were getting bankrupt. They had enough money. They could easily plan house for him. He decided enjoyed on every step of life. There were many things which would needed in house. He decided that he would be happy. They all would be happy after all he could visit his parents as much as he like. It was just wonderful for him. He smiled and went out while he was dreaming his life with Krutika. It all was nice. He wanted himself to be sure of it. After all he got what he wanted from him heart on every point. He once again smiled and screamed "Thanks Mom." Mom screamed back " My pleasure." He never saw his Mom that happy. He smiled and went out.
   Ravi went to his bike. But he suddenly felt that he didn't want to ride bike. He was too busy with thoughts to ride bike. He decided that he would take bus then he sensed for first time his Mom was right he needed many luxurious things in life and he wished that Mom added car as first one. After all he needed car. He went in that bus and he suddenly began to remember his childhood. After all he used to travel in such bus only. He liked it. Those crowded buses were not that bad. He liked it. He started enjoying it. He knew that it was strange. Why did he liked that hard sort of traveling? He needed to return to thirst for luxury. He just didn't feel it. He just felt one thing that luxuries were not needed for him. He was so confused. He went in his office. He started to understand that he wanted to just do his job. He was so happy in office but as he looked at watch. He saw timing. He decided that he must go home. But he suddenly felt a heavy pain in head. It was hurting him. He felt that his head was heavy. He sensed that he must be having fever. He never understood that he was going to have it. He was feeling so strange. He was sure that he must caught some viral. He decided to call some one for help. One person from office saw him in that state and came running. "What happened Sir?" "My head is paining? Can you get something?" "Sure. I can get painkiller from chemist. But I feel calling to doctor is wise." "Then just do. My head is just paining too much." He called Doctor. Slowly whole office gathered. Doctor came. He checked him. Doctor " It must be migraine." "But why does it started? " "Actually I can't tell like that I have to take some reports then I can tell." Ravi nodded. Then he went home in some one's car. He went in his room and slept that fellow told his parents every thing and gave them medicines for him. It was worst. Finally every thing was happening as per his wish and he suddenly started having this sickness. He just hoped one thing that Krutika would not reject him for that. But any way he wanted to get rid of those pains more than any thing. He turned to his Mom " This is turning in worst way. On every step I just wished that every thing was fine. But it never turned out nice in life. I just don't understand."" Just relax. You will be fine and every thing will be alright." So after that he started going office, he was continuously doing tests. But they kept avoiding Krutika. He started checking every thing. But every thing turned out to be normal so they planned meeting with Krutika and it turned out to be worst. Since Ravi started feeling pain just few hours before meeting. He took painkillers. He decided to meet her. He was so excited but pain started in his head manage to hurt him. Still he got ready with one hope that painkiller would reduce it. He got dressed up. He started looking in mirror. He was perfect. He smiled and went out. Every thing was okay. Painkiller started reducing pain when bell rang. Krutika entered in his house with her parents and suddenly his pain increased so much that he fainted. He just lost his conscious. He didn't understood any thing before he woke up in hospital. He was sleeping in bed and his Mom was crying. " Mom what happened?" "Nothing."" Just tell it to me Mom!! Just tell it." " Fine. Just relax and listen. Krutika was not ready to marry you." Ravi nodded. He sensed sorrow but then he sensed that he had just expected it. He just went to sleep.
      After that Ravi did lot of checking. All his reports were just perfect. He just didn't sense any pain. He was so happy but one thing was making him tense again and again. He was so scared that he would feel that pain again. He went in his office. He worked like normal fellow but he kept getting tense on every point. Finally he decided that he wanted to be normal before moving ahead with life. After all Mom wanted to start search for suitable girl again. But this time she wanted some time so that rumors regarding his sickness were vanished out of picture. He was happy to get rid of those proposals for few days. He wanted to confirm that he would not fell sick again. It was just turning worst on every point. He decided that he should meet his Doctor. Ravi " I just can't sleep at night because I am scared that my sickness might enter again. I mean that head pain. I just can't forget it. I am so scared to move ahead in life. I feel as if my pain will destroy every thing again so I want just to reduce it." "But it is not coming then why are you so concerned? " Doctor checked those reports. He noticed few reports were done repeatedly. Doctor " Why did you done those check up twice who advice you?" " Ohh. No one I was just scared." Doctor looked at him in strange way. " I can see you are going to doctor repeatedly." Ravi looked at his file. It was so big. After going to hospital he just kept going to different Doctors. He never found any thing wrong in himself. He just felt so scared. Ravi " I know. But I want to reduce this fear. I just started searching for solution." "Can I suggest you one thing? I feel you need to go to psychiatrist." "You feel my sickness is mental?" "I doubt it." Ravi was more scared now. He knew that since Krutika left him. He was not himself. He started avoiding going out with friends. He never went to movies or for enjoyment. It was not normal. But he kept hiding it. He never sensed that it would lead to this. He took number from Doctor. He was so scared until finally he reach to psychiatrist and he told him all. Psychiatrist " So why are you scared now?" " I don't understand. I might feel pains again." Psychiatrist smiled." No.You will not they were started due to Krutika." "I don't get it." "You were first involved with her. She hurt you. Then you started adjusting with your life when you got money. She once again entered in life. It upset you. You are starting feeling sick because you don't want to go with her." "But why not?" "Since you don't want to cross speed limits." "I don't understand? It happened because I disobeyed traffic signal." "Not just that but your mind was convinced that she would force you to do many things against your wish again and again. So it began then slowly you are developing Somatoform Disorder now because you didn't understand your first problem. But trust me. She will never enter in life so you can relax now. She was cause of trouble. She is gone so you are fine. But just remember one thing never break rule for any relation. Since it would just lead to troubles." Ravi nodded and smiled. Suddenly he felt like some bird out of cage. Until that psychiatrist didn't point it out he just didn't sense that he was free now. He smiled happily. He just jumped with joy then looked around. But he knew that it was okay if some one would laugh on him after all he was not going to be Krutika's husband.
