"he has been ignoring me from the morning kritika.... Have i done something wrong or what?" nayan asked, tears forming in her eyes.
"no gurl. You have to talk it out with him before anyone snatches him from you. Afterall you love him right?" kritika asked. She nodded.
"today I'll confess my feelings for him for sure." nayan smiled.
*"*
"hey! I am so sorry i ignored you today! I just wanted to clear some things out" there he came, the star boy in the eyes of nayan.
They were meeting on their fav place, the birdwatching sanctuary. All quiet and filled with nature.
"oh its ok shub. But please don't ignore me from now on. I feel terrible" she said honestly.
"nayan, i hope you don't like me. Because well if you do, right now is not the time. I want to focus on my career and moreover my parents would not allow me to build relationship right now. You didn't like me did you?" this words shattered nayan's heart. She controlled so hard not to cry.
"nope. Ofc i didn't" she tried to pass a smile lying to him.
"oof thank god. Then this all lecture was for nothing? Lol i thought u liked me" he sighed in relief and laughed.
He left with that. But here nayan couldn't keep up with what happened. Well the irony was she loved and was about to confess, just crippled her heart by warning about no relationships.
She was heavily crying, and she started walking on the road full of silence as it was night. Her half vision blocked by tears, she didn't cared where she was taking herself to.
Then to add up, the sky began to cry with her. Rain. She falled on the ground on her knees, allowing to mix up her tears into the rain. Noone would know right?
When suddenly a car's headlights shown upon her and she closed her eyes, not getting time to react enough.
Thinking her life is gone. But surprisingly nothing happened to her.
She opened eyes to see shubman?
"oh i am so sorry to hurt you nayan... I had a feeling you had caught up feeling for me. I'm sorry" he mumbled hugging her tightly.
Whereas she just cried more.... She knew this was the last time them meeting.
"i love you shub. Go on and achieve what you're made for. Make ur dreams come true and make our country proud." she smiled getting up. Well only she knew the pain in her heart right now.
"i am always there for you as your bestfriend nayan" he said.
"goodbye" thats all she said.
*"*
"Hi mr.Gill, i am your new manager" she smiled. His eyes met hers. He gave her his signature dimpled smile. The smile which made girls faint.
She looked way too familiar to him. But he chose to ignore.
"Hii.... Thank you for taking the job ms....?" he asked forwarding his hand.
"Ms. Nayan singh" she smiled shaking hands with him. Seemed like he forgot about her is it? Good for him.
But he was shocked. Was she his nayan? He looked at her as electricity surged through his body by the touch of their hands. It has to be her right?
"nayan?" he asked looking in her eyes. Shine in her eyes were the same as they were before 5 years ago.
Her heart raced as she heard her name from his mouth after 5 years. She had a bad urge to hug him tight but she has to control. That was for the better.
"y-yeah?" before she completed, he hugged her tight.
"boyy how much I've missed you. How are you?" he asked through the hug. Nayan controlled her tears and said...
"mr.Gill I don't know what you're talking about.... We are meeting for the first time" she said trying to cover up.
"oh really? You aren't my best friend huh?" shubman said coming closer.
"Shubman long back i used to love you. And you just broke my heart. I can't afford to break my heart again. Plus you are dating sara. So its better to just stay as professional friends" she said.
"i had my reasons nayan. I was just starting with my career and my fath~~~" shubman was speaking but nayan cut him in between.
"I don't want to know the reason shubman. You are fucking dating someone else and you're trying to explain to me now?" nayan said with tears in her eyes.
"NO you HAVE TO listen to me nayan. I started my career and my father told me to focus on it rather than relationship. I liked you nayan. I couldn't see you hurt like this so i warned you. But guess i was too late. You know why i avoided you and i getting in a relationship? Because i knew if we do start dating then i won't be able to give you time. And it would end up in misery. As i would even get out my match frustration on you. I don't want you to be upset. Anyhow" shubman said holding her hands.
"But you did hurt me by staying away from me....." she said looking away.
"hello shubman what are you doing?" sara came in with so much energy.
Nayan freed her hands from shubman and started to walk away while shubman was watching her only, not paying attention to what sara was telling.
"She's so sweet, she's so pretty... Does she mean you forgot about me? Oh i hope you're happy but not like how you with me I'm selfish i know, i can't let you go. So find someone new but don't find noone better"
Maybe shubman was too late to confess his liking towards her. Or does he have a chance still?
He closed his eyes, and asked his heart. And his heart spoke that he should go and stop nayan.
Nayan deserved the world for whatever she did for all those years for him. He can't just leave her like that. She is broken. And he needs to mend her heart.
"NAYAN! stopppp!" he caught up with her. She looked at him.
"shubman i don't want to talk right now" she said.
"but I do nayan. Look at me. I have always loved you nayan. But fate never brought us together. But now it has. I want to compensate for every little second that i hurted you." shubman said lovingly.
"oh so you remember now huh? Agar mai aaj nhi aati then you would never come right?" she said. He shook his head.
"Never nayan. If you wouldn't come today then i would come to you. One day or the other. And i knew you'd always wait for me." he said.
"but you wouldn't isn't it? You already have sara" she said folding her arms and looking away.
"For god sake stop taking her name. I am NOT DATING HER or anyone for a matter of fact...." shubman bursted out with frustration.
"then the news, your posts with her.." she asked.
"Reporters and media made it fake. She and I are just friends! You know she would be the most happiest if she would come to know about us" he said.
And thats all that took nayan to hug him tightly. Afterall she loved him so much. And she contained that love with her through all this years.
"True love always waits for you"
