~ You're the peace I crave in this chaotic world. ~
He was three, when he held her little finger for the first time. He didn't know, what future held for them. But he did know that he wanted to hold onto this lit...

Day-5: Leh.
I woke up with a jerk to the sound of loud thud. My eyes shot open. I threw the blanket away from my face and tried to get my senses back. Blinking my eyes a few times, I stretch my arm to get my phone. Quarter to six. Fluff. I need to get ready in 30 minutes.
Leh. Fight. Crying.
I turned my head to the bed. It was empty. I removed the blanket...? I didn't go to sleep with this. I remember putting it over him. Did he... did he put this on me? Maybe he went to get some fresh air something and banged the door a little too loud. Yeah. That's what must have happened.
Gently, I stand from my spot and head to the washroom. The washroom looked like someone had showered already. Finishing my morning routine, I get ready for the day. It was exploring day. I don't know what the others were exploring, but Ahaana Mehrotra needed some self-exploring. I also needed to explore Mumbai to get a place of my own. But we'll put that aside for now.
The day was already planned, we had one day in hand and hell lot of places to visit, so we decided on four must visit places. Starting the day with watching sunrise at Shanti stupa. Then, Leh Palace, Hall of fame and lastly Leh Local Market.
I make the bed and adjust my things that were scattered. His phone was nowhere to be found and his bag was zipped up. He's all ready to leave and we are making him late. I hope everyone else is late too, I do not want to piss him more than he already is at me.
Is it weird that I feel like we broke up last night even when we weren't in any relationship to begin with? Its' a weird feeling.
"Pyaar karne se ab hum toh darr jaayenge, aansuon ki kahani mein beh jaayenge... humne socha na tha.." My body stopped. Where did this come from? I haven't listened to this song in more than a year and half. How did this come to my head? Am I going back there? I shook my head vigorously, as if trying to get those lines out of my head. No. Nope. As if the room would hide me, or hurt me in some way, I quickened my pace. In the next minute, I was out of the bedroom. Shit. I am scared to be alone. Again.
"There's my favorite gurrrrl." I heard Yug screech. The moment I saw his familiar face, my heart calmed down. I brushed my sweaty palms on the sides of my thigh and walked to where Yug was standing with Suhana. I straight away walked to her and hugged her. "What's wrong?" She whispered to me; I shook my head. Yug stood behind with his lips pressed in thin line. He wanted to hug me, but I hugged Suhana instead.
"We are no longer best friends. Don't talk to me for the next 10 minutes, then we can be best friends again." I laughed watching him walk away. Suhana broke the hug and rolled her eyes.
"Why am I so madly in love with that man? Is something wrong with me? My choice?" She questioned more to herself than me. I chuckled. "Poor guy pursued you for six whole years before you finally gave in." I shake my head thinking back to the days Yug was in his lovesick puppy phase. He still is in the same phase when it comes to Suh.
