Ansuya's POV

"Betu wake up, you'll get late for your flight." shouted mom from downstairs

"yes mom, coming..." I revert back

I rose from my state and sat at the edge of my bed, I am not feeling anything these days, and happiness is far far away.

I mean I was happy earlier, I was doing great, I did my MBA with flying grades and I got this amazing job in Bangalore as well but in the past few days I am not happy, it's like since mom and dad told me about Jatin.

Jatin is my father's friend's son, who is eligible for me according to them, he is wealthy, good looking and moreover understanding, yeah.

I miss him! NO, a big one, but maybe.

i am scared I don't know but there is something I am scared to accept and it's his touch and I liked it.

this heat is forcing me to do so many things I'm feeling such unwanted things that I never experienced before him and now all I crave was his touch.

Tyag means sacrifices and we both did that, he lost me and I lost him.

this acceptance and why all of a sudden this is happening now when I am getting hitched with a guy my parents choose for me isn't it all going according to my plan like I always respected my dad's decision but why now, I want to rebel and run towards the very man I ran from.

Getting ready i went downstairs, there my mom and dad having breakfast and Mithi was talking on the phone.

I visit my parents twice a month and leaves on Monday early morning.

"Have your breakfast and your papa have something to talk about." my mom stated

"yes, papa?" I asked in a sec

"Jatin asked me to ask you if you want to join him this weekend in Goa? there is an opening ceremony for his new hotel and he wanted you to be there with him, so he asked me to ask you if you will join him," he said

I looked at him and my mom and then at my plate, I was chewing my lip along with my toast and they were looking at me with so much hope that I was going to give them a lifetime of happiness.

maybe I should, it's not like I am going to get married to him in an instinct or maybe he really is a nice guy, and it's not like Tyag is waiting for me.

I don't know anything about him, where he is, since the arrest I just heard from Mithi that he just came on his graduation day and he was looking so lost and pale that it was hard to recognize that he was the most charming boy of the campus.

since that day no one saw him and aware of him, I feel regret sometimes. he was a nice guy, and I was stupid and naive to react in such away.

I should have talked to him and sorted out the matter but instead, I reacted impulsively, shocked, and ruined my life forever. I am sure he truly loved me.

"Ansuya?" my mom asked

"Yeah... but..." I spoke very little

"I think you should go, he is so nice to ask you for this, he even sent the tickets for this weekend and we all are really looking forward to this beta, at least give it a try, try to know him, maybe you will find him good, who knows..." my dad said.

I looked at Mithi and she smiled with the yes.

"Ok, I'll go, now I'm leaving, bye love you all." I bid my farewell and took my taxi to the airport.

i am going back to my apartment and I think I am going to take a sick leave.

all of this is too much for me, Tyag why are you still haunting me, man.

within 2 hours i reached my apartment and forced myself to my bed, i mailed my HR about my leave and now I am in my sad world.

just when I was about to sleep my phone pinged and it was non-other than Jatin.

"I am happy that you are coming." *text

I ignored it and fall asleep.

the week passed just like that working and drinking with my stupid roommate in the evening.

and it's almost Friday night I didn't even realize. Thanks to my mom she is a constant reminder

Falling asleep my thought ended only on Tyag and his touch. I am getting mad and addicted to the extinct touch.

"hey, An wake up" my roommate pushed me with her leg getting irritated by my phone ringing.

of course mom "yeah I am awake, and I'll not miss the flight... yes I'll have my breakfast... yes... yes... ok bye."

I rose from the floor and walked towards my room, I always fall asleep on the living room,

I freshened, bathed, and ready all set to meet Jatin.

it's not like I am meeting him for the first time, but first time alone like always our parents were there but now and it's Goa moreover.

almost in two hours, I was standing at the exit gate of Dabolim. waiting for my ride, there I saw a taxi and sat in it.

I had the address of his new hotel and I just have to go there, he will receive me from there.

just when we exited the airport premisses I received his call "hello" I said

"hi Ansuya, how was your flight?" he asked

"It was good, just 1 hour 20 mins," I replied back irritatingly

"good, sorry to tell you this at the last moment but, i have got a call from my office and I have to attend this meeting in half an hour so... I am sorry but I won't be able to receive you when you'll go to the hotel, but don't worry I asked my very close friend, he'll be there with his girlfriend to receive you. I am again very sorry," he said all this in on the go

"ok no problem, will meet you when you'll be free." with that, I hung up the call.

yeah very nice guy, see dad huh!

it's not like it's my first time in Goa but again I am here because he asked my parents not me, otherwise it was straight no, damn he was aware.

in almost an hour I reached his hotel, must say it's a fine well-designed hotel.

The driver kept my luggage outside and I waited for his so-called close friend to tell me which room and my keys, but before I can think or look any further my eyes fall on HIM.
