We were here. In therapy. Something that i taught it never would come to, but it did. Harish was sitting beside me. A tear ran down my cheek. I quickly dried it away. It was dead silent. I could only hear the clock ticking. With every tick, i became more and more nervous. It was almost like i felt something was going to happen. Something bad. My heart was beating so fast, and my hands were shaking. I could hear Harish taking a deep breath. I look down at the ring Harish proposed with six months ago. A little feeling of hope popped up. 

"Why don't you guys start from the beginning, what happened?" Mrs. Agarwal asks. 

Harish places his head in his hands and starts to cry. As soon as i hear him i start crying.  

"I'm so - o so - rry," Harish says while crying. 

I closed my eyes and leaned my head backward. I was trying to make myself stop crying. I was tired of crying. 

"That's okay. Take a deep breath. We don't have to start there. Tell me about your story. Divya when was the first time you saw Harish?" Mrs. Agarwal asked. 

I dried my tears away, and look up at Mrs. Agarwal. 

"I met him for the first time on a beach. My friends and i were celebrating one of my best friends' birthday at our local beach, and then i bumped into him." I say trying not to sob. 

"Harish what did you feel the first time you saw Divya?" Mrs. Agarwal asks. 

Harish looks up to Mrs. Agarwal. 

"I was new to the area, and i had never seen her before. She was beautiful. Almost like an angel. And i never told her this, but that night after i had met her i went home and prayed..... to meet her again." Harish says trying not to cry. 

I start crying silently. 

"How does that make you feel Divya?" Mrs. Agarwal asks me.

"Hopeful," I reply cryingly.

"Great. You guys are doing good. Divya when was the moment you realized you were starting to get feelings for Harish?" Mrs. Agarwal. 

"Ehm...we went to Anashi park together. I had never felt that alive with anyone before. Being with him made me feel like i could do anything.....like if i was in his presence anything was possible." I say drying away my tears. 

"And now the same question to you Harish. When did you start falling for Divya?" Mrs. Agarwal asks Harish looking his way. 

"I watched her read one time. She was reading "the notebook". It was getting dark, and the moon outside the window was shining down to her. She looked beautiful." Harish says. 

I instantly turn my head towards Harish. He keeps looking at Mrs. Agarwal. That was one of the first nights he started working there. 

"Is that shocking Divya?" Mrs. Agarwal asks me and looks at me. 

Mrs. Agarwal looked down at her papers. 

"He never told me that," I say drying my tears away. 

"Why didn't you tell Divya, how you felt about her?" Mrs. Agarwal asks Harish and looks in his way.

"I didn't think it would matter" Harish lets out. 

Mrs. Agarwall started writing in her papers. 

"How did it feel when you were with her?" Mrs. Agarwal asks Harish. 

"I didn't have that many people in my life back then. She wasn't only my girlfriend. She was my mum, my sister, my friend, and so much more. Being with her made me feel like i had all those." Harish lets out. 

I instantly turn my head towards Harish. I couldn't believe how he was still able to say those sweet things to me after everything that have happened.

"Okay let's try something else. Turn your chairs around, so you face each other." Mrs. Agarwal says. 

I take my chair around so i face Harish. I look at Harish's hands afraid to take my eyes up to his eyes. 

I slowly move my eyes up to his eyes. Our eyes met. Memories flew to me. I start getting teary again. 

"Harish when you look at Divya now... what do you see?" Mrs. Agarwal asks. 

"Him" Harish replies within seconds. 

"Who?" Mrs. Agarwal replies. 

"Suriya" Harish lets out. 

Instantly my head falls into my hands, and i start howling.
