It's hard to forget

6.Finally!!

Samy's POV:

I hate her. I really do. Why does she have to go to these extremes? She called him. That crazy Anurag who loved her even after knowing that we were destined to be together. And the worst of all her dad likes him. So I did what I was supposed to do. I made them break up. It's not like they are in love or something. They are friends, the best ones actually.

Do I regret that? Never. He is not good for her. He doesn't take anything seriously not even her. I know that. He is my best pal. I did what was best for both of them. And in the end, who got all the backlash? Me. The great friend break-up specialist. Sameer Khan.

It took almost 5 hours to reach that damn place where he was staying after all the breaks and stops these three girls took. Am I excited to meet that rascal? Yes, I am. He is my best friend damn it. But seeing my girl's happy and dreamy face through the mirror all my enthusiasm to meet him evaporated.

Maya's POV :

I am so happy that we finally reached there. I didn't even wait for the car to be parked safely. As soon as he stopped the car I got off. I know I am happy to meet my best friend after all these years. And I know that Samy knows that as well.

Immediately after getting down my eyes searched for my best friend and finally found him. There he is standing at the entrance of the house where he has been staying all these years as per Shres. His eyes are fixed on me. There was this expression on his face that I couldn't decipher.

He smiled. That idiot smiled at last. I suddenly remembered all those smiles we shared before everything got complicated. I moved toward him. I know Shresta was following my every move as I can feel her presence close to me stating she might have gotten out of the car along with me.

"Don't do something stupid and cry later coming to me." She glared at me and that made me roll my eyes at her. "He is my friend Shres. Nothing more. Cool your motherly instincts dear" I said sounding too cool even for my own ears.

Suddenly I gasped as I was pulled forcefully and came face to face with Samy. We are so damn close that our chests are almost touching. There was this angry glint on his face and snide in his voice. He said pulling my hair from my face and playing with that " I know what you are doing. And I am not going to stop any of that. But angel. Remember one thing. When you can't take any of this come looking for me. Anytime I will be there for you. But don't let your dreams kill your practicality."

How dare he say those things and what the hell is he doing?? We are almost hugging each other and our bodies are intertwined as if we are about to hug. His hand is still on my hand to the back of my waist making me push my body towards him. "Leave me alone" I gasped at this mere proximity. My brain can't function when he is this close to me. But why is he hugging me? Where the hell is Saira?

I slowly turned my face away from him and saw Saira and Shres talking with Anurag turning away from us. There was this cart between us making it impossible for them to see us. So that's why this arrogant bastard thought of manhandling me in a way he is not supposed to.

He turned my face towards him again and with a smile on his lips he said " You know you still love me, angel. It's written all over your face and those beautiful eyes. And stop ignoring all this and what is this sudden urge to meet that stupid fellow? Are you trying to show me that you don't care about me anymore?"

That made my anger grow. " I am not trying to show you anything but it's true. I don't care about you anymore. Not after what you did 2 years back remember?" I snarled but managed to maintain my voice as low as possible. I don't want Saira to listen as she still doesn't know anything about this ignorant rascal.

He smiled. He fucking smiled after my confrontation. And that smug look on his face made my anger rise to its peak level. " You do care for me, darling. Or else you won't be trying this hard to lower your voice. Your beautiful eyes will not be on guard duty as you don't want Saira to see or hear all this."

How dare he? This smug bastard thinks I am doing this to protect him. Maybe yes..! But he doesn't have to know that. I can say that I am doing this to protect Saira instead.

I didn't even open my mouth to tell him exactly this when I saw his smile reach his eyes. Slowly shaking his head he said " Oh no. Don't even try to say this is all for Saira. I know you way better than to believe that dear. You do care for her. No doubt about that but more than me? No way. I am damn sure even now after all this if there comes a situation in which you have to choose between me or that stupid Anurag.. you will choose me.. Am I wrong angel?? Won't you choose me? "

This arrogant stupid idiot fellow. I hate him. I hate him because he knows me so damn well. I know that I will support him come what may. I love him damn it. And he knows it too damn well. But no. I am not going to give him that pleasure anymore. Not after all that he did to break my heart into pieces. Tears started welling up and that made his smile vanish. He knows he is hurting me. There was this remorse on his face but that doesn't make it any better.

"No. I don't think so. I am not going to repeat the mistake that I made all those years ago. I am not going to choose you ever again. And why do you think I will do that? I am not that much of a suicidal you know?? " I smiled at that. I freaking smiled instead of the rolling tears that were about to fall from my eyes.

" And this time there will not be a reason for her to choose any of us, Samy. Not you, not me. If whatever you are trying to do by binding her with your hands is over. Can you please let her go as your fiancee is waiting for you inside. And I am waiting for my turn to hug my lifeline after 4 damn years." Anurag said coming behind me making Samy's hands leave my hand that is holding me captive. Slowly sliding his hand around my waist Anurag pulled me back such that my back was now touching his chest.

I am still facing Samy's front so I can see his eyes glowering with what feels like ice. There was a snide formed at his mouth showing his dissatisfaction." Hey, doll. Are you okay? " I closed my eyes after hearing Anurag's slow and smooth voice in my ears as if he was whispering. And slowly I relaxed in his arms making a smile form on my lips.

God, I missed this person. My teddy bear. One true best friend every girl should have. His hand around my waist tightened and I smiled heartfully responding with a little hum. Satisfaction. it's pure bliss. I know my facial expressions will make Samy angry but I didn't care now. My main concern was I was in the arms of my teddy bear after 4 damn years. I miss him.
