Hum Tum - A Journey of Becoming "Us"! ❤️✨

Tujhe Kaise Pata Na Chala

I was standing near the door, my heart was thumping faster, There was a sound of two people shouting at each other inside the guest room, but nothing was clear. So, I went a bit nearer to the door, Though I didn't want to eavesdrop on someone's private discussion, I was curious to know what was going on behind the doors.

When I moved closer to the door, I figured out that two boys were screaming at each other,

"You know, you are hurting her right, How could you do this to her?" It was Shivam, I could easily guess his voice, but why was he shouting, at whom and why was he mad, as his voice was full of anger?

" My intentions were not to hurt her yaar." My heartbeat dropped at the sound of the second voice, as I knew whom it belonged to clearly, that was the same voice that made me feel, love for the first time, Chirag.

What were they talking about, as I know they were not that much of good friends, they only talked in the classroom, when required and also at the cricket field, when they were playing as a team.

"What intentions are they talking about, and who is that 'her' in their conversation? " I asked to myself and tried to hear further.

" Don't lie, Chirag, you did it on purpose, she doesn't deserve this, you are the most selfish boy I know, How could you do this to that innocent girl? She loves you, please don't hurt her like this." The last sentence made me alert, Who loves him, other than me and how does Shivam know all this?

" I don't know what you are talking about." Chirag declared.

" You know it very well that, Purvi loves you, Don't play these mind games with me." What, why did Shivam tell him about my feelings for him, I wanted to confess it by myself, anger started building inside me, I was about to enter the room when suddenly Chirag's next words made me stop and stunned.

"What, I don't love her, you know it, we are not even close friends, Asking her for her WhatsApp number, accepting her friend request, hanging out with her, chatting with her, doesn't mean that I love her." I felt like something inside me broke at that very moment, my tears started flowing, and I just didn't know what to do. I was still in that position.

"I like her sister bro, Prerna, I even befriended her just because of her sister, I never gave her any hint, that I like her." If my heart held a little bit of hope that if he didn't love me then, we could be good friends, it crashed at that particular point, he never liked me or wanted me as a friend, he just wanted Prerna, so he was using me. I didn't know, how I was feeling at that time, I was numb.

I turned to left from there, as I was not that brave to listen further, about him and Prerna. The person I love, my first love didn't even like me, not even like me as a friend. He only wanted me, sorry needed me to get Prerna.

I went towards the exit without letting anyone know, I walked aimlessly towards the road, I was feeling hollow from inside, and my heart was shattering every moment. My tears were not stopping. I was not in my senses.

I thought of going back to the party and pretending like nothing happened, but I was not strong enough. So, I planned to go back to my house. As my house was within walking distance from Vinnie's house, I preferred to walk back, I thought to give her a call later about my whereabouts.

Strengthening myself I walked towards my house, I reached there in five minutes, thanking god that no one was at home as, they had all gone to a wedding, and only Sikha and shruti would be there, but they would be present at their respective rooms.

Without wasting any time I went towards my room, not able to control myself I burst into tears. All the flashbacks of mine and Chirag's came to my mind, all were fake, his gestures, smiles, caring, talks everything was fake.

I was living in a world of dream and lie. It's like someone pinched me and I am back to the real world.

Was I not good, why did have a full fall for someone else, on top of that it was my own sibling.

Thinking about my broken life, I didn't know when I slept on the mattress near my bed, after crying for hours.

"Tere dil mein meri dhadkane thi
Tujhko na aayi nazar
Mera ishq tujh mein saans le raha tha
Tujhko hui na khabar

Tere alawa jaan gaye sab
Tujhpe main kinna mardi aan

Tujhe kaise pata na chala
Ki main tainu pyaar kardi aan
Tujhe kaise pata na chala
Ki tera intezaar kardi aan"
