What we left unsaid.

6. Destiny works in a twisted way.

Kavya POV

I looked out the window. The sky is too pretty today. I have been sitting in my seat for 20 hours now and we still have 2 hours more. Why did I have to shift this far??

"Woah, look at the sky! It's just too beautiful. The moon is just so breathtaking today, isn't it?"
I said while admiring the crescent moon that shone in the sky.

"Yes. Yes, it is." HE said.

"Look at the moon will you and then answer you dumbo," I said while smiling and with a little anger in my voice but on the inside I was very happy.

" I am. I am looking at my moon," he said while smiling. Gosh, the smile. I'll die right now.

"Stop it will you," I said sternly trying not to show the pink on my cheeks.

We looked at each other and started laughing. I'm very happy.

"Good morning ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We will be landing in Jaipur, Rajasthan in 2 hours. We are on time. Thank you." I snapped back to reality.

I can't believe I am on the plane right now. I don't know what got over me that I decided to come back here. I shouldn't have come back here but here I am.

Is there a way to escape? Can I just jump off the plane? No, I probably can't. I think I'm going crazy.

I should just work. Yes, that'll help. And it did help. For the next 2 hours, I was so engrossed in my work that I didn't even realise we landed.

I quickly collected my luggage from the baggage section and went to the arrival gate.

In the mail, I received from Naina it said there would be a person waiting to pick me up if I decided to show up.

I suddenly felt bad for the person who would be waiting if I didn't come. The person has their name as a sign. Weird.

I arrived at the arrival gate and spotted the person holding the sign while he was facing backwards and talking to someone.

Why did he look so familiar?

I went to the person while dragging my suitcase along with me. I was about to call him but I think my phone rang. I started looking for it in my purse as I tapped the person still facing back.

"Hello, I'm the person who's supposed-" I looked up from my purse as I found my phone. My eyes met his. HIM. I can't believe this. How is he here? Why is he here? Were we supposed to meet like this again after 10 years?

"Kavya.." he said, his voice barely audible. He put the phone down his ear and cut the call.

We didn't know what to say. We just kept standing there looking at each other as tears formed in our eyes.

I had a lot of things I wanted to tell him that I was sorry for leaving without saying a word, that I was forced to do this because I didn't leave then ill surely would have ended up doing something very drastic because I could not stand myself anymore.

"Oh my god!  That's Kavya Verma."
"What is she doing here in India?"
"Is she here for a case?"
"I am a huge fan?"
"Should I ask for an autograph?
"What is she doing here with Aditya Kapoor?" "Do they know each other?"
"What's going on?"

I could hear all the whispers of the people nearby and I forgot that both of us were well-known people.

A lot of people started coming towards me trying to get photos and autographs but I just didn't know what to do anymore.

I just stood there my arms and legs refusing to move.

Suddenly a muscular arm came around me holding me by my shoulder and it was HIM.

ADITYA.

He apologised to everyone and took me out of there while carrying my suitcase.

My legs finally moved as I walked out of the airport. Fast.

We quickly sat in the car and he drove off from the airport. I finally breathed a sigh of relief. I looked to my side to look at the man driving. I can't believe we met again.

The ride to the hotel was very quiet. It was probably the most awkward moment of my entire life, to be honest. I didn't know what to say and neither did he.

He just kept his eyes on the road as if he was making it his mission to not look at me. 

Well, I did expect this not just from him but from everyone I'm about to meet now. Everyone will be mad and will want answers. what should I say? I can't tell them the real reason.

Not now at least.

I have to wait until the wedding's over. I can't ruin the mood right now.

Well, this is going to be a very hard month.

Like they say,
Destiny works in a twisted way.
