Apeksha's P. O. V.

So with my heart slamming hard against my chest I wandered around the resort to find him. I asked everyone, " Have you seen Rehan? ", " Have you seen him? " but no, nobody had seen him. Why do people suddenly become invisible when I try to find them? Great!  Suddenly I crashed into somebody.

" Woa, relax lady. Apeksha? " Roxo said in a surprised tone.

" Oh! Hii. Sorry. " I apologized.

" No problem. Where are you going in such a hurry? " he asked me.

To your best friend and to tell him what I feel about him. Any more questions?

" Ummm... Roxo? Have you seen Rehan? " I asked him.

His eyes gleamed with a mischievous shine . " Rehan?"

" Yes Roshan Rajvanshi, R. E. H. A. N. Have you seen him? "

" Oh, last time he was spotted in the resort's swimming pool, opposite to the gym. "

Bingo. Very well done.

" Thank you. " I said and before he could ask me his customary 'why?' I sprinted towards the swimming pool. Today I will tell you Rehan. Let's see what you gotta say? In every case boys propose girls but I guess in my case I will propose the boy. I grinned. My heart was racing faster than me and all the incidents we spent together, all the words I need to tell him floated infront of me.

As if in a mad race, I entered the luxurious swimming pool hall. Just fifteen stairs. I have to descend just fifteen more stairs and turn left. Incrediblely small distance. I will tell him. I will finally tell him. And if he agrees then he will be mine. A smile was plastered on my face my palms were all sweaty and my heart was seeking escape; it wanted to break free and come out of my chest.

And then a loud gasp escaped from my mouth at the sight that I beheld. If I thought my heart wanted to break free three seconds ago then now it was broken. Again.

Standing in front of me in the resort's pool, in crystal clear blue water were Rehan Kshatriya and June Saunders. They were standing really close. Her hands were around his neck and his hands were possessively wrapped around her waist and they were looking so intensely at each other it seemed that for them the world has stopped. He was looking at her like she is his claimed possession. Like she is the only girl he has ever seen. That look was such a Deja Vu, the same look he used to give Aara, his ex. They were leaning close towards each other, their faces inches apart, when I think they heard me and their faces snapped in my direction and in an instant I turned back, I turned to conceal my expressions and tear filled eyes.

I heard some shifting sound and ripples created in water, " I am sorry. I am sorry to disturb you. Please don't stop on my account." I bearly managed, as a quilt to cover my dying self respect.

" No. No Apeksha, wait. Nothing was......... I mean come join us. We will have fun. You didn't disturb us. " June said. My breathing had already hitched. I couldn't speak anything. Run! Run! Run away Apeksha. He was never yours. He will never be yours. June is a sweet person, a good girl. Really good. I can't despise her. She is perfect for him.

I shook my head and without turning back. I ran from there. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. A numb sensation filled me. I could not hear my heart. I wanted an isolated place to cry my heart out. But as I was running a figure collapsed at a distance of twenty five mitres from me. I blinked my tears away. Oh dear lord. Ruhi!

I ran towards her, forgetting every other thing and shook her vigorously by her shoulder, " Ruhi. Ruhi. Get up. Ruhi. " But she did not move. Nothing.

Shoot.

My senses became alert again. I tried to pick her up myself. I cannot do it alone. " HELP. Somebody help me. Please. Anybody here. HELP. " I was on the second floor now. The swimming pool was far behind. What will I do?

" Ruhi. " I placed her head on my lap.

" Apeksha? " I looked around at a very worried looking Samar. I could have hugged him. As always on right time.

" Samar. We need to carry her to her room."

He rushed towards me, " Is she breathing? "

I nodded.

" I will carry her to your room as it is nearest from here. You go call the doctors. "

I just shook my head up and down and turned around to go when Samar stopped me. I looked curiously at his face, what does he need to tell me?

"And stop crying. " he said as he took out a handkerchief from his jeans pocket and wiped that salty treacherous material that flows out in extreme emotions.

Only then did  realizs that tears were rolling down my cheek, that I was crying.

" I am fine. " I forced upon, more likely in myself and cleared my face with the back of my hand.

Then without wasting a single second I rushed towards the infirmary on the ground floor.

Nobody sees Apekasha Tirupati weep. Nobody.

Cause I am not weak.
