Am I really in love?

Now that the confessions are done, it is like, new emotions has filled up my mind. I am elated yet sad all the same time and there are times when I feel like crying but there would still be a smile on my lips.

My heart feels like it's racing all the freaking time. There isn't a desire for food or entertainment anymore. Either staring at a space, thinking about him or talking to him has become my new hobby. Everything feels different than the time when we were physically closer. So, yes, according to all the love stories and songs I'd heard, I am indeed in love.

It seems like the obstacles in our relationship has only made our bond stronger than ever. We are so far but never had I felt him so close to me. There isn't a wall of secrets between us anymore. And if the idea of soulmates does exist then I am sure that he is mine.

My friends are tired of asking me questions for my suddenly formed weird behaviour and are probably annoyed by my repeated answer- "I think the weather is just too beautiful."

It was a bit difficult to convince my mother that Neil was gonna be fine this time and won't cause me trouble anymore. She was a lot hesitant throughout the conversation but thankfully she managed to give us a green flag with a last warning in the end. I am so relieved that my father didn't even get a chance to know about all the chaos that has occurred--thanks to his job that doesn't allow him to be preoccupied with his daughter's dramatic breakup and patch up stories--all he knows is that I'm dating Neil and that's it, nothing new is added to the fact.

Only Sia and Mom know about my new relationship status with Neil. Others would know about it eventually when he'd return after the recovery.

"I can't believe that I'm saying this for the hundredth time but I really want you to tell me what's going on," Rohan states with a tinge of frustration in his voice. "Come on Bianca, I'm your secret keeper, remember?"

"I don't have a secret." I shrug.

He rolls his eyes. "Really?"

"Yes."

He scoffs. "Okay then, if you don't trust me then I can't help it."

I start laughing.

"See? This is what I'm talking about. You're not the type of a person who giggles."

"Well, what can I say?" I shrug again. "People change."

"Yes, but not without a reason."

"Okay, Rohan. I'm spilling the beans but don't you dare share it with anyone else."

"Yeah, right. Maybe it gets in the way of my daily gossiping channel." He rolls his eyes again. He will never accept it but there is a change in his demeanour as well. He is beginning to behave a lot more like the age he is.

I wave off his sarcasm. "I'm in love with Neil. I mean, we're in love with each other."

"But, how is it gonna work? Like, with everything that happened?"

"I know it's a bit complicated right now but, yeah, he'll come back."

"Do you trust him enough to make such a commitment?"
