So today I'm going to narrate story from a different pov. Rithu's pov.
Rithu's pov
We reached Goa by 7 in the evening. The engagement was taking place at a luxurious resort near the beachside. The whole place was glowing with beautiful lamps and lights. Soft melodies were playing in the background. The smell of delicious cuisine penetrated through the nostrils.
I saw my relatives, friends ,well wishers . All were happy. Everyone was excited for the marvelous engagement of a lovely couple.
But me..... I was getting ready for the funeral of my feelings. Before starting the journey I promised myself that I will end my feelings for Avinav once I reach Goa. I will make my stupid mind understand that he was never mine and will never be mine.
I promised myself that I won't shed a single drop of tears for him. But , but I couldn't protect any of my promises. My heart was still beating for him , my eyes were shedding tears for him. I was standing helpless there . I couldn't move , couldn't speek , couldn't think. Something broke inside me forever.
This place was once my favorite. I always loved Goa. This was the place I met him for the first time. That day was still infront of my eyes. It was love at first sight. I was just 15 at that time. I fell in love with him even before I know the meaning of love.
I shut my eyes and took a deep breath. I should stop it. He is in love with someone else now. He is Shweta's now. I felt ashamed for thinking about a man who belong to another woman.
" Are you deaf? How many times I have to call you? Where are you lost?" Bhaiyya asked shaking me.
" Huh.. nothing" I managed to utter . I have to go away from here immediately. Otherwise my eyes will betray me.
" Kya hua" he asked again . " Nothing Bhai, I need to sleep. I'm tired. "
" Okay, your room is there" he said and handover the room key to me.
" I'm also coming with you" Nithya said with concern.
"No,...umm... I mean you are first time in Goa na. Just took a round and see the place . Bhai .. take her to the light house it's beautiful at night" I said and ran to my room without waiting for her reply. I just want to be alone. I don't want anyone to see my break down.
I wanna cry till I feel relieved. I wanna throw away this burden of my heart. I fell on the bed and released my tears which I was holding.
It's all my fault. I don't know why I fell for him.I knew he was a playboy. I knew he has so many relationships. I knew everything. But still I fall for him deeply. It's my fault to love him . And now it's the time to accept the punishment.
I know it's no use crying over spilled milk. All my life, I was treated like a princess. I had everything in my life. Maybe God wants to teach me a lesson. Maybe I have done something very wrong to deserve all these. So I left everything in his hands.
I can't cry like this for my whole life. I have to move on. I know it's not easy. I will cry again and again. My heart will bleed, I will break down completely, but atlast I will survive. I will overcome all these . I will smile again someday.
Next day I was woke up by a knock in door. I opened the door and found Nithya standing there with a sad smile. I tried to return the smile but failed. She hugged me and caressed my hair.
I don't have any tears left, so I stood there like a stone. " I'm sorry" she said and I looked her perplexedly.
" Why ?' I asked.
" For leaving you alone" she was looking guilty and I felt smiling seeing her cute frown.
" It's okay " I said and hugged her back. I remembered the promise I made to my brother. I will help him in winning her heart. It's time to do that. I want them to be together. I know I lost my love forever. I know that pain. I don't want my brother to go through the same.
I have to do something before we go back. I decided to help my brother in all possible ways. This way I can distract myself from the pain.
Nithya's pov
I can't see Rithu like this. She was completely broken. When we reached the resort she left me alone with her brother and went to her room. I know she went for crying. I tried to accompany her but she denied and ran away. Oh God. I'm scared now. What if she do something stupid? I can't leave her like this. But she said she wants to be alone. So I decided to give her some time.
I started walking towards the lighthouse with Karthik. He was talking continuously. But my mind was with Rithu. I was worried about her. Oh God , she doesn't deserve such a heart break.
I didn't realize I was crying .
" Oh God. Kya hua? Did I say something wrong. Shit. I'm such a stupid. I shouldn't have asked about your family. I'm sorry . Please don't cry" he said and I was astonished.
When did he ask about my family?. I was completely lost in my thoughts that I didn't listen a word. I felt bad. He is such a nice person. I was disrespecting him by not listening to his words.
" Nithya" " Hmm... I'm okay." I said hiding the embarrassment.
" Are you sure?" " Yup" I said with a smile. Later we had a small talk and reached the light house. The sight infront of me was too beautiful .

I don't have words to explain the alluring sight infront of me. A smile crept on my lips unknowingly.
" You like it?" He asked standing beside me. " Yes. I loved it" I said with a smile.
He was looking at my eyes with some emotion. I tried to comprehend it. Somehow I felt he has some kind of feelings for me. No, maybe I'm overthinking. But everytime when I was with him, I feel something which I never felt before. I feel peaceful when I'm with him.
He is a great friend. That's it. I dispersed my thoughts and continued looking the sea.
