The Truth Untold ✔

Part 5

Both of them sat there. Silence surrounding them, as both of them had paused their songs. Both of them wanted to talk to each other. Collecting the courage one of them finally initiated the conversation.

"Hi!" He said.

"Hello!" He got his reply, for which he was very thankful.

"I have seen you before." 

Heaving an amount of breath not knowing how will she reply, but the reply he got was not expected by him.

"Me too. In the garden, right?" 

She asked him, just to confirm. She was shocked too, that she was noticed by him.

"Yes." He replied. 

Again silence. They both were nervous. Why? Because without asking their permission their hearts have made a special space for the other.

"Why you always wear a mask?"

"Why you always wear a hood?"

Both of them asked each other, at the same time, very fast and chuckled. 

"I- I don't know how to tell you?"

He answered her. She smiled slightly.

"You know whenever I saw you in the garden I saw sadness in your eyes. And whenever I saw you I had this song playing, and as if we were performing, you would really act as the lyrics."

He listened to her very carefully, like his life depended on this conversation. As she was done with her part, he also decided to say something,

"Me too. Whenever the lyrics- 'Don't smile on me' would play and you would smile. And I knew that it was painful too."

She smiled. 

Now both of them were finally ready, ready to share the untold story. 

"Would you mind if I ask you to share your side of story with me?" He asked her.

"Would you do the same? Would you share your pain?" She asked him, instead of answering him. 

"Yes. We are both going through something, it may have same reasons. Also it may also help both of us to comfort each other. So.... I will share my story with you."

He answered her to which she nodded. He understood that she had given her answer as 'yes'.

Both of them still unknown with each others facial features, unknown they have met before. Unknown that soon they will be with each other, together and forever.

The smile which was faded from both of their faces will come back. The song to which they listen daily, will soon be changed by another songs. But still they will always remember the song which is closest to them. The Truth Untold.
