TOXIC DATE

FOUND HER

"If it's love, it never dies, shifts and happens again and again"

IRA'S POV

He was in front of me.

ASHER?!

Asher was here....and how come?

I was staring at him all dumbstruck while he was doing the same. We were at a distance..a quite possible distance. In the same way our hearts were, and we were in eachother's life.

But why was he here? How come he found me? I never wanted to face him. Because he did things to me, even when at distance. I could feel his intense gaze, his face made my heart beat erratic. His presence made goosebumps arise on my skin and everything that was happening to me was natural. But yet I didn't wish him to see any of this.

We can't just loose control over anything. And then loosing control on oneself is the worst anyone can do to them. While my eyes were fixed at him..I thought how much has he changed in these few years. He is still handsome but his appearance is quite different. At some point he was looking different but still mine.

Mine? No Ira not yours he is married with a child.

But did love knew boundaries? No it never did, because, If it's love, it never dies, shifts and happens again and again. I think without warning it comes in our life and if it happened to both of us in a most beautiful form, and we would have felt it for eachother in the same way..it can't die away. Love never dies! It doesn't. It can still be hidden in the softest corner of our heart. Where we try to keep it away from everyone else's eyes. For us our love took time to bloom, it took time to grow and that is how it happens. Love at first sight is a very shallow concept, you don't know someone but you fell for them. To love someone you should know their perfects as well as their flaws. The day you accept these flaws is the day you embrace that person back in your life. But when we naturally just look over anyone and decide ohh he is meant for me, mostly it's just a fling, a thing, an infatuation.

For me Asher wasn't my type, he wasn't someone I liked, I didn't instantly developed this liking, these warm feelings in my heart about him. It happened slowly, he made me realise that slow romances are cool. I wasn't his type either, he had someone he liked, they were committed. He was fine and doing much better than me basically out of league and someone on whom I would have never tried on anything. I was of no comparison to him, equal clashes...but love for our passion and the promising nature made a fondness grow between us. When did the teasing took a form of liking we ourselves didn't know. That love and feelings blossomed amongst us when we were unknown to it. We didn't knew about it, and that's how relationships are? They take time, they need to be nurtured, built and understood upon. Like is ours. Everything takes time and so does love.

But the day it happened and that one individual becomes your everything it becomes so difficult to even forget them, they will always be a part of you. The part which you can never get rid of..!

I had nothing to speak and made my fist. And decided to turn around and move but before I could, I heard him. His voice..

His voice which sounded so different after years.

"Running again"

My heart dropped a beat for that split second.

What did he mean by it? I never ran away, I gave him all he needed to stay happy and removed myself from his life. I wasn't running away from him or maybe I was. Somewhere I did? What else can a person do at that stage of time? What could I have done other than that . Anyone in my shoes would have done the same thing. I was not running away from him, I was just backing of. The only thing I had been doing since years. Something I was used to. I never wanted to become a hurdle in any road, anyone lives. And all I knew was how to escape. That is what I have been doing since so long.
