Turkish narrator : Holla dearies, so where do you think we were at? hmm, they are about to travel together so let's travel with them then.

Mahesh

"Ok Raff it's time to go now, I'll give you call once I reach" she hugged him gave a letter which had wax seal on it. she turned to Jathin he gave her his hankie? I wonder what happened. and do people really write letters? that to nowadays when we humans have come these far in technology? this seems way to immature at the same time cute.

Then again Raff murmured something to Maya, then I took my sack. my friend rushed to me "realize what i said" i nodded. he patted on my shoulder and we did our bro hugs.

Raff and me also did the same, " Maya come let me help you in" she nodded to Raff and they checked in. I turned Jathin.

"What" don't you wanna go" asking he walked around me. nothing to say him. because I wanna just go. if I agree what he stated before?  that i like her. it's not that I don't. but i like being around her. so how could I put this in words with my very clever friend!.

"Jathin you were factual before" he squinted his eyes. " so you agree ahh" I nodded, if not with best friend then with whom will I share right.

"Yeah I do, but not the way you think" I reasoned he shuck it off and he embraced me on arm. I know he wants to talk so much but Maya is staring at us from check-in desk. we bid our bye and I asked him to return. and Raff also came back handing all her things, he also went off hugging her again.

I neared to her, " don't you think he is bit emotional" asking I turned to my right, ohh no she is already whimpering, I handed my hankie but she had Jathins. "it's alright Maya" I patted o her shoulder. she nodded with tight smile.

We walked in and got seal on our passport. we passed to waiting.

"How do you feel getting back home?" I draw my attention on her, she seems fine now. no watery eyes, and loose pants, fluffy black full sleeve sweater, black boots, loose black hairs falling all around her shoulders, every now and then when she pulls her hair back, my hand itches to do the same.

I grunted and " blissful" she nodded and held her hand under the chin.

"And how do you feel" she rotated her head towards me. " jubilant" I nodded. why are we acting like new people here? is it because I lied, did she notice?

"Hot chocolate?" asking I raised my eyebrows.

"No thanks" I did not expect this answer for hot chocolate. again she turned away.

"Maya are we ok?" I can't resist this behavior longer.

"Ya we are fine, your publisher and I'm working for you" I couldn't say a thing so I sat quite, we did not talk even a word and the announcement started and we passed in. we sat at third row and I sat left to her.

"Is this your allotted?" motioning her hands to the seat.

"Yes, why?" I'm confused, she is not behaving normal.

"Ok" she turned away again.

Maya

Why am I acting like actual bitch? he could have told me yesterday that he is travelling back because my book, but he didn't and why would he? I'm no one to know everything about him. but I will keep my distance.

I'm on the window side, I can't sit quite you see? but I don't want to talk to him either so I turned to him, " would you mind sitting on this side" 

"No, why?" with his curious eyes narrowing at me.

"Then why don't we change the seats" I smiled to get the seat. and he nodded and let me sit on.
