SPOTLIGHT IN THE DARK

ADVANCING ❣US❣ FURTHER

I'm here with the next update of the story.

N "Vo umm.. coffee se...umm vo.. tum.. tumhari yaad aa..aati thi isliye."

And this statement of her burst the bubble of guilt in him. He was guilty of his act and stupidity. 

But was satisfied to know that she still love him. He was glad to know that she proved her words of not loving anyone else except him true. 

On the other hand, she was in sorrow that he was in front her eyes but still she is not able show her love to him. While reflexing about this, a lone tear made it's way through her lashes, which is obviously noticed by him.

 He urges to engulf her, he wants to console her, he wishes to wipe off the tear but still couldn't because they were not in that state anymore. The only thing he could do is to apologize for his act.

K " I'm sorry." And he did it.

N "It's ok... I'm used to it." She retorted wiping off her tear.

Before his guilt rise more. Before the awkwardness between them grow more. A notification tune ceased there thoughts.

K "Umm...can I use your charger for sometime, my battery is dying." He asked.

N "Sure...give it to me, mein plug in kar deti hoon" she said forwarding her hand.

K "Thank you".

He placed his phone in her palm. She stood up and went towards the desk to plug it in. And the sight of her mesmerized him. He caught a sight of her in the morning but she in her pants and shirt only which was new look of her.

K "Looking gorgeous." He blurted out.

N "Huhh... Tumne flirt karna kabse shuru kar diya." She said coming back to her swivel.

It felt like flirt to her, it felt like fake to her. Obviously it should feel, after five years of ignorance how could she believe that he is praising her.

K "mein flirt nhi kar rha tha... I meant it." He said.

N "Ohh then thanks, by the way yaha kaise aana hua?" She questioned him.

K "Vo...umm...vo...tumse kuch baat krni thi."

N "Haan bolo."

K "Umm...We split up few years ago right?"

N "Hmm.. So?" She replied blankly as flashback of those days started coming in her eyes. 

K "Actually I have had a reason behind it." He tried to tell her.

N "Whatever the reason was hidden behind it, it doesn't make any difference." She scoffed. 

She was hurt remembering that miserable part of her life. And so her pain is showering in the form of anger. She lost her self respect to know the reason behind it and now after this much years when she has come up from that incident, he's here to tell that freacking reason.

K "Naira I really had a valid reason." He spoke.

N "Par mujhe nhi sunna." She argued.

K "Naira plz, ek baar sunlo plz." He pleaded.

N "Fine.. bolo." She agreed.

K "Actually us din jab hum mere ghar mile the na. Jab tumne kaha thi ki tum uncle ko humare relationship k baare me batana chahti ho. Us din....."
