LOVE IS HEALER

GUILT

Days were passing,the friendship was
blooming between Siddharth and Shehnaaz.He never crossed his line and
just gave her what a friend gives.She
also started opening herself with him.
One day after completing work,
Shehnaaz was about to leave and she
boarded the elevator.A voice came
"Wait!!Wait !! Lift stop!!".
She stopped the lift and it was none
other than Siddharth.
"Thanks yaar!you stopped the lift otherwise I would have to wait for more 10 -15 minutes."He said panting.
"Its ok Siddharth.How was your meeting today?"Shehnaaz asked.
"I dont know ,I think I will need to
convince them more..Just tired."
Siddharth said resting his head on lift
wall closing his eyes.Shehnaaz saw
some notification on her phone and
shouted excitedly like a kid.Siddharth
came out of his trance ,scared and
asked"What happened?What happened??"
"Release date of avengers is announced.!!Yeah! i was waiting for so long."She started jumping like
a happy monkey.
"Really??Dude I love avengers..It is
freaking best."He exclaimed.
"See !See! I found someone who likes it.!
My girl friends dont like it.So everytime
I have no one to watch with."Shehnaaz
said clutching Siddharth's hand in
excitement.
"So why dont we both watch it together? "He asked cheerfully.
Shehnaaz got concious again at his
question and seeing her hand on his
arm.
"Aaghh...movie?"She asked nervously.
"Arre buddy!Not a date-vate .Just a
movie dayout.And you really think
that Avengers is a movie date type
film.!?"He chuckled.
Shehnaaz agreed his point that friends
do go for movies and yes this movie
is not a type of movie that would
awkward us.So she said..
"Ok !Yes!!We will go!!".
          Today was the movie day.
Siddharth messaged her.
Sid-Movie at 12.Meet me at 11:30 outside theatre.
In this case,if there was any other guy
he would have gone to pick her up
gave her flowers.But here it was
Siddharth.He observed her very
carefully,he came to know very well in
these few days that Shehnaaz needs
some space,she likes it when someone
respects her opinions,she doesnt need
a caretaker,she needs a person who
understands her.
          They both met outside theatre at
11:30.
"Did you book the tickets?"Shehnaaz
asked.
"No actually I was waiting for you..
Which  seat you prefer?The middle ones or the last ones?"He asked.
She smiled looking at him,he was asking her which seat to book?At her
house she was not even allowed to
select her groom.
"Oye where are you lost?Bol na ..konsi
karu?"He said bringing her to real
world
"Middle waali" she said.
"Ok wait here.Tickets leke aata hu."
She nodded.
         Both of them entered into movie
hall.Movie started but Shehnaaz was
not at all in the movie.She was thinking
about Siddharth.On the other side Sid
was completely into the movie.She looked to his side and kept looking at him.He is such a nice person.I hope I
dont hurt him.I feel scared sometimes
even if we are just friends..I dont want
to do anything that will hurt him.He
deserves all the happiness.But sometimes I feel guilty of not telling him what I have inside me.I dont want
to keep him ignorant...but what can I
do?What to do with my fears??
    In that moment he looks at her and
raises his head in  a what happened
question.She nods her head negatively
and watches the movie screen.
