"It was close to what is termed as 'Love at first sight'. This Hindu girl joined our company as a fresher. I was on my toes for that smile. Sadly, she was married.
She joined in a different team. A couple of months later, I shifted. The friendship grew. I cracked jokes just to see that dimple appear again. I knew that somewhere, I was doing it wrong. But I couldn't stop myself. She seemed to like my company as well.
Once, we had an office tour. Kanika drank for the first time. At about 1am, she called me to her room. We talked throughout the night. She told me the problem of her life. Her husband was impotent. I guess a lot more could have happened that night if I wanted. But I chose not to make use of the fact that she was drunk. I chose to stay a friend.
Days later, I met the guy. He was nice, but by no way deserved Kanika.
I wanted their divorce.I don't know whether it was my love or something else.The only thing I knew was that Kanika's life was getting ruined; and I didn't want that.
I started threatening the guy.In a changed voice, I made him feel that he was a burden on Kanika's life. I asked him to kill himself.
Weeks later, the I threatened to kill him.
Shekhar died in an accident after a few days.
Later that year, I married Kanika. We are happy now. But, there's something that worries me all the time.
Today, a salesman came and asked for Shekhar. I told him that he is dead. He looked at me in an unusual way.The look is worrying me.
It's been more than a year and I don't want anything to go wrong now."

"Feel sad for Shekhar, but then, as they say,all's fair in love and war.Wish the new couple a good life ahead. Hope the salesman doesn't have a role to play.
