Affair Of The Heart

Chapter - 8

Author's POV
**************

The noise of people start disappearing as ishan keep walking aimlessly with a blank mind. He don't even know where he is going, he just has one thing in his mind, he wants go far away.

So much far so that, his weird and complicate feeling can not mess with his mind and heart anymore.

Tears rolling down his face like a waterfall and his didn't even bothered to wipe them. He felt like screaming his lungs out but no matter what he couldn't even let out a single word.

"This wasn't supposed to happen, Never!...then why? Why God?" Ishan cried painfully in his mind.

His whole body was shaking because of his hard sobs, he grabbed the near tree for support and leaned his back against it as he looked up at the sky, filled with dark clouds.

"P-please...I don't want this..." Ishan let out miserably.

He covered his face with his palms and start sobbing loudly.

He wants to distance himself from Shubman but till when? Both of them lives under same roof, he have to face older everyday. He felt utterly helpless.

"B-Believe me....I don't want to feel anything when I look at him but whenever I find his eyes on me, this stupid heart felt everything all at once... It's not my f-fault...it just happened on it's own..." Ishan let out as if defending himself , to particularly no one.

Suddenly he heard a thunder sound and saw the lightning in the sky. He the slowly composed himself and wiped his tears before looking around to know his surroundings.

He frowned in confusion as he couldn't remember from which way he had come here. Because of his mental breakdown he didn't pay any mind to his surrounding while coming there.

But now looking at the long and big trees, he can guess one thing that, he had walked somewhere deep inside the forest and probably he is lost now.

Ishan rubbed his temple in distress as he cursed his terrible luck. Can't god let him a single moment of peace? Is it too much to ask? First Shubman is already doing great job in messing him up and now this!!

Meanwhile at the same time, infront of camping spot. The teacher noticed to change in whether and decided to end the game.

"Guys...it looks like it's going to rain soon, so lets end it here and all of you head back to your respective tents, and don't worry the tents are waterproof... Now hurry!"

Every student let out a disappointed sound as they really were having fun, nonetheless they still get up and start going back to their tent.

Shubman looked in the direction ishan went and frowned when he didn't saw younger there. Mayank also seems to noticed ishan's absence.

"Wait- when did he went away from here?" Mayank asked in confusion, referring to ishan.

"You guys go ahead...i'm going to get ish, i saw him going in that direction..." Shubman said while pointing to his left side.

"Want me to come with you?" Abhishek immediately asked.

But Shubman shook his head in no, refusing his bestfriend. He then said,

"Both of you go and wait inside tent, I will be back with ish soon..."

Having said that, Shubman turned around in the direction he saw younger going earlier.

Abhishek looked at his fading back before turning his attention to mayank, who is looking worried.

"What happened?" He asked
