Memories :- pain & cure

11. Let's talk

Author's pov

Nayan always gets sad whenever he remembers their old days. It's so hard when it's only you who remember everything but the other forgot everything. You can always feel the emotions when the other is in front of you, but the other can never feel it and nor can see the emotions which he feels.

But now when he saw her reaction in the warehouse when he was still tied up and the man said 'her ex boyfriend' he isn't sure about her situation now. He is so damn confused but he subsided it then. But when he saw her close to others and not with him his jealousy kicked in making him think about the reality again.

So Nayan thought to talk about this to jaagruti and settle the situation for once and for all that if she knows about him or their past or is it something else he doesn't know.

Now he was in the company's meeting sitting beside the head chair with all his glory in corporate suit and rimless spects spacing out and not miniding the male employee who was saying something about the deal. And jaagruti noticed this sitting on the head chair as she was the boss in a white simple saree with a slim neckless chain. His trails of thoughts halted when someone whispered near him.

She leaned towards Nayan and said in a low voice,"spacing out in a meeting as superior doesn't suit you prince."

"Sorry I was thinking about something" he apologized to which she nodded.

Soon the meeting finished and everyone is going out to their work. Jaagruti was checking some files scribbling something on the note. And Nayan was about to go out but he thought to talk about what he was thinking about a while ago.

"Ru- jaagruti" he called her.

"Yes, what is it?"

"I wanted to talk to you about something"

"Sure, sit and talk" she said turning her chair to him to face him.

He sat on the chair where he wa sitting untill now thinking how he'll out the thought out," I wanted to ask that..."

"That...?"

"That if you..." He stopped abruptly when
Tanu came in without knocking to call jaagruti, just then he noticed the neckless chain she was wearing. It was a gift by him back when they were still a couple in their college time.

"Boss you have another meeting in a while, so I guess we should prepare for it and bye bhai" tanu informed Ruchi and bid her farewell to her brother's friend now her brother too and left.

"Let's talk later when we have time" Ruchi said before taking her departure.

Nayan sighed at this leaving the room and again lost in his thoughts but this time a new thing. The neckless she was wearing he never noticed till today. The neckless he gifted her as a anniversary gift. The neckless was of gold and two birds attached together.

He had the same birds neckless but that was silver in colour which they bought together for each other. He was beyond shocked when he saw the neckless. She still has it? Even after forgetting things and after all these years? He thought.

He always make sure to wear the neckless. He never took it off. If it's broken or dameged, he'll have it fixed. Now he wanted to ask her about that too but indirectly.

Now it was 6 in the evening when they had a little meeting about a someone who's messing with them. Must be a stupid dumbass.

When they were done Ruchi was going to her room which was in the base building. On the way there Nayan stopped her to talk to her but can he..? NO.

"Should we talk now?" Nayan asked. He was a bit nervous. He noticed the chain again.

"Yeah. sure, tell me. What do you want to say?" She asked.

"Yeah I wanted to ask about back when-" he started saying just to get interrupted again.

"You guys can talk later. I have something to tell you, come." Ashish Said interrupting the two and pulled her wrist to go with him.

"What the- again?" He blabbres annoyingly and left in a fit.

The pair of exes met again around the park where he first saw her after coming to India. They jogged for a while and then sat on a bench when they finished. He smiled slightly when their eyes met since he was annoyed from yesterday.

"You were saying something but failed twice yesterday. What is it that you wanted to ask Nayan?" She asked him noticing his annoyance.

He was a little stunned when she first time called him nayan after five years. Then he took a deep breath and proceeded to say,"actually I wanted to ask about-" and his phone rang.

He closed his fluttered shut in clear irritation and annoyance and growled. She chuckled looking at him. When he saw her smiling after a while, a genuine smile. He smiled too shaking his head he picked up his phone and sticked it to his ear.

"Bro we've a little issue here come to the company fast." He heard the other side of the line speaking which is tanmay.

He sighed and closed his eyes and said," I'll be there soon" and hung up.

"You say are they planning against me talking to you or what?" He asked tired of initiating the talk but failing miserably.

"Maybe the universe is against you speaking to me. Let's talk later and go now." She said smiling at his trials of talking to her.

Can he atleast speak to her? Let's see.
The picture at the top is what their chains look like or you can imagine other if you want by the way.
