Not like the movies

It's 31st December today. I'm just chilling in my apartment with my parents. We basically ordered Chinese food, watched a movie, had a couple of drinks. Basically what every other person does on new year's.
     If you're a bollywood fan then "Yeh Jawani hai deewani" must be one of your favourite movies. Don't deny. Even if you denied, I know it was your Teenage dream. Trip to Manali with bestfriends and all. Meeting a cute nerd or a carefree flirt. Fall in love, break your heart and then meeting again after years just to breakup only to patch up on new year's.
     The scene where Bunny goes at Naina's place at exact 11:59pm is every girl's dream.
Something similar happened today. I'm saying something similar because life's not a movie.

At exact 11:56pm I hear Justin Bieber singing "If I was your boyfriend I'd never let you go, keep you on my arms girl you'd never be alone".. that's my ringtone. Yeah don't judge me, I still have Bieber fever!.
I get up to see who's calling so late.
Just looking at his name pop up on my screen weakens me. Ariyan! That's his name. Suddenly my heart is beating in my mouth.
I put on my earphones as I answer the call.

"Hello?", I asked
"Hello!", he responded
.
He paused for a moment just to continue speaking.
"Listen to me, listen to me careful. Don't say anything, but just hear me out"

And with every word my hand was shaking and my heart was throbbing.

‌"I'm sorry, I'm sorry for putting you through all that. I'm sorry I couldn't give you what you need, I'm sorry because you suffered because of me, I know I don't have much time since you won't be talking to me from new year's. I need to go home, mom's worried, and if I cry please don't say anything, I love you a lot. You mean a lot to me. Please take care of yourself and your family. Please I really love you a lot. Bye , love you.

And with that last " love you" the call went flatline.I stood near my window taking in what just happened! Everything felt like an end and start at the same time. My hands were still shaking and heart throbbing like crazy. I slowly walked near my bed and literally threw myself on it. My body was all wobbly and it felt like I've lost my power to function. I laid down for few more minutes.
It felt like I've lost something. I wanted to cry so badly. Tears did form in my eyes , but I ignored it. Because just like Selena Gomez said "I needed to lose you to love me". And hence I lost you because i wanted to love myself. My train of thoughts was interrupted by my phone ringing again. My family was calling

Not every nerd Naina gets a happy ending with flirt, funny Bunny.

Sad? I know right!   
Warned you, it's not like the movies :)
