“Maybe he is going to give my answer! I will call you back. Let me prepare myself!" Anokhi mumbled.

“Don't apply too much perfume!" He suggested.

She continued staring the the clock every ten seconds with mixed feelings.

“What on Earth are you doing here?" She mumbled when she saw Aahir chitchatting with Shaurya on terrace.

“Hey.....!" Shaurya waved.

“He is so calm! How is that possible?" She felt peculiar.

“What do you think Ashi is to me? Say honestly!" Shaurya asked immediately as if she was in Viva in a physics lab.

Aahir shrugged, exchanging a clueless gaze. He chose to be silent, standing little away from them. He was eagerly waiting for them to them talk, like the shipper he was.

“Good friend, colleague, .....idol.... !"Anokhi emphasized every word.

“Right! She is my inspiration. Her courage gave me strength to fight back and conquer a dreadful disease. Seeing her excel in career post her recovery, I took up tutor job and came out of that trauma. She was, is my inspiration." Shaurya seemed to have come well prepared.

“mmmmmmm....." Anokhi inclined her head.

“I spoke about my goal to start a YouTube channel and work on cinematography back in November with her. And she said , if she were me, she would have started working on them already. And it hit me hard. "

“I couldn't stop thinking about it! What I dreamt of, and what was I doing? I gave up, thought I was still healing. And  lived in self pity. And I didn't even realise it. She gave me a reality check. Look at you...you live miles away from your home to pursue your dreams."

“I contacted my friend, discussed this project. And wanted to prove what I'm  to myself, before I tell the world."

“Jan 16, I was on way to airport to give you send off. Then I had a call from Ashi."

Flash back:

“Shuarya! I need your help! You won't mind right?"

“Ashi, are you fine? Your voice is shaking!"

“I'm in hospital."

“Hospital?"

“The devil is back. I might, I'm gonna die soon... anyway, care being on my side for a while? Ben, my family are out of station."

“And I drove back!" Shaurya sighed.

“Why? Why.... what's her fault. She is young and kind." Anokhi was really sorry about Ashi.

“.....I was very upset and mad too. But you won't believe what she said. She spoke about working on her new dream projects before cancer drained her energy. Earlier my plan was only to shoot this MV, and then collab with a production house showing it as a sample. But when I  thought I could help her, I told her my plans. She wanted to do a lot. Go on a trip, act in a webseries, collab with us for the YouTube channel and so on. She wants to set a path for aspirant actors. Working together is  mutual benefit. So, my friend and I changed plans accordingly."

“And then this Paris trip, shortlisting story for webseries, everything just happened with the flow."

“But, then.....one day I felt like you like me. And surprisingly you confessed the very next day. Earlier I thought you are carried away by words and looks. Then I heard Shaugun-Aahir's love story. They met in a wedding and fell in love, it gave me positive vibes."
