Damsel in Delusion

Flashbacks!:)

Gauri Desai

For the last two days Gauri has been lost in her own world but this time it's not her strawberry world surely.
She is constantly thinking why Shivaay didn't do anything to that drunken jerk who touched her.But she was completely unaware of what he did after that.
She misunderstood him for his silence at that particular moment. Instead she started thinking about how much of a jerk he himself had been at some point in her life.

"It's okay, who cares? I don't. So doesn't he!
As simple as that. Why will he do something for me? He simply doesn't need to! He is just my professor's son."

While she is deprived of the fact that what he has done to him. He literally made him feel like he committed a major sin and now the only punishment is Pain.
Immense pain, by pouring alcohol down on his fresh wounds.

She started working on her assignments while sitting at the cafe and kept typing something for so long for 45 mins and then wrapped her stuff and went through the sales of this month.

A strange thing she observed and discussed with Nina.

"Who's this anonymous buyer .....and he has always taken the same order and in same quantity...... Bischoff cheesecake and Oreo Frappe always. Never ever changed his order.
I never noticed it ever before.....and most of our profit is due to this one customer.
He has been our regular customer but never showed up even once."

Nina -" He seems to be quite satisfied with our services Or may be he's someone who saw you and got flattered .....so he started to make his presence seen by you!"
She said teasingly.

"How filmy Nina! delusional behaviour at it's peak."

"It's nothing too serious to be discussed and thought about .....he simply must have liked our thing and is sheerly stuck with a fixed order ....maybe he doesn't like to experiment with his food preferences!"

Nina -" Maybe or ........Maybe not!"she left with a grin on her face.

" Let's focus on something more productive rather than assuming a regular customer to be my stalker!"

Nina - "of course babe!"

She went through all the sales and made the entries in her laptop to show it to her grandfather!
She has to do this at the end of each month.
But what Nina said was still going on in her mind ..... because she knows how much Shivaay likes Oreo Frappe and how much she likes the Bischoff cheesecake!
They aren't friends anymore but still she can't forget the all minute details of him.

" But why will he buy my fav. Order! It doesn't make sense at all. I need to focus on something more productive!" She convinced herself.

And the very next moment she saw two cuties sitting at the following table. And what made her think of Shivaay , were the sunflowers in the girl's hand!
"How cute, may god protect them from evil eyes!"
Those flowers reminded her of the times when they both were on the verge of separation and then finally did, Maybe!

"I still have those origami sunflowers I made for him on his birthday and he didn't have time to take those flowers I made with so much love.
But it's fine who cares? I don't give a damn about it."

Then why don't you throw them away ?
One of her personalities asked her this question.

"Because I love my art and I don't care if people don't value it. I do and I love my art that's why I can't throw my flowers "
She dealt with her personalities quite smartly.

But the truth is she knew the other reason and she almost hated herself for not throwing them away!

"Ahh .....why can't I throw those goddamn sunflowers , I don't even touch them or let anyone touch them, Whyyy???? "

"It's alright, you are under control and collected. Cool Calm Collected!"

She left the cafe and went out to water the plants to distract her from the things which were distracting her!

But it didn't work as she saw a baby Bamboo plant in the first row!

Ughhh.....now why this!? I never bought this bamboo for our cafe!

"No more overthinking about them. It's just a plant ..... nothing more!"

Bamboo too holds a special memory but she doesn't want to recall anything special about their bond , now!

Then luckily she received a call......

From her therapist, she asked her about today's journals , which was luckily completed and it also made her forget about the things from her past which were trash now!

It worked wonders when you force yourself to forget something but you don't have to be too hard on yourself, universe makes it easy for you ....by sending some other distractions.

She secretly thanked the universe and her therapist for making things smooth for her!

"Ahhh ....A big thank you universe! I know am your favourite child! Thank you for always helping!"
She closed her eyes and smiled.
Only to receive next shock , One missed call from Mrs. Malhotra and other one was an anonymous number which was more scary because probably it's not!

Stay tuned to see who's this?
