Kabhi toh milega ✨

Chapter 4

Shehnaaz feels better after lunch at Tamarind. She feels loved by the family but she's missing home so much.

After they come back, Sana decides to call Rita aunty.
"Beta we are missing you so much. Give my regards to your aunty and uncle"
"Ma sab thek ho? Ghar ka bohot yaad arahi hai.. mera plan yeh ta to stay at least one week here but pata nahi aisa lagraha hai jaldi hi waapas ghar jaana hai"
Rita aunty is telling her to stay a little longer even though they are missing her too. It will be good for her...

Shehnaaz  calls her manager Kaushal and tells him to book a flight on Saturday. she'll leave from here on Friday, day after tomorrow.
After sometime Kaushal gets back with the details. He has booked the flight to India that will take off at 2 am.
.
"I'm leaving UK on Saturday morning... Mera jo manager Kaushal already booked the flight" At dinner Sana tells the family.
"But di itna jaldi q? You just came. This is not done"
"Sorry yaar I'm with you whole day tomorrow. Let's hang out. We can go shopping"
"Okay.. but"
They know Sana is missing home.. specially her Rita maa.

Next day Kiran, Dilpreet and Sana go out, shopping and trying English food. It's never boring with cousins. Shehnaaz finds herself laughing hard at a joke of Dilpreet.. They are happy to see her back to her old self. Bubbly Sana di.
"Sana you should find a guy who can make you laugh and keep you happy like this" Kiran says.
"And of course who will give you attention..like all the time" Dilpreet adds.

Sana feels that sharp pain across her chest.. Sidharth..
She cannot remember when she stopped craving for attention. She was desperate for his attention only. When he was gone, it didn't matter to her anymore. Tere agar na hosake...

Going back home, when they drive past the Starbucks... Shehnaaz's eyes are glued at the entrance... searching for her dream.. was it real?
Tomorrow she'll leave this place...
"Sana I will come with you to London" Kiran says.

"No no Kiran I'm perfectly fine. Tumara jo exam bhi hai na final year ka? Please don't worry yaar. I can travel alone"

It's just two and half hour train ride from Wales. She'll be perfectly fine.

-Friday 3 am-
Sana wakes up at sharp 3 am. It's cold. Even though the heater should be on she feel the coldness reaching her bones. This is why she hates England.. You are cold and Sidharth is not there to keep you warm.. She pulls the bedsheet over her head, hugging a pillow. She never imagined she'll have to sleep without Sidharth. He was so big, larger than life, everyone seemed so small before him. How can he... The flashback again.. that day at Starbucks it felt real.. the touch.. the eyes pata nahi tu bohoth kareeb lagta hai.. Shehnaaz thinks to herself struggling to go back to sleep. She has no idea what is about to happen.

Sidharth at his apartment, is also struggling to sleep. It has been like this for the past three and half years. To sleep without her.. He's feeling anxious.
Maybe it's better if he returns back to his life, to Ireland. Shehnaaz is a strong girl.

Shehnaaz wakes up at 5 am. Her heart is heavy.  She has to get ready cz the train will depart at 7 o' clock. She checks her phone. It's K again, asking if she's in London. Oh god.
She decides to reply.
"Not interested" is what she wants to send .
But instead this is what she really type.
"Ok done. Let's meet for lunch today."
