Her Secret Smile

"Pain makes people change"

It's that Thursday morning, Nidhi got up from her bed with a slight fever and leg pain she doesn't know how she got this but ended up feeling lazy to raise up since today she was on leave so rested looking at the rolling fan.

Yesterday she packed all her belongings in the boxes since they are shifting their house today, she doesn't know where it is but did what her mom said her to do. She is going to discontinue her studies in a month and her mom has already talked about her with her mother in law for her stay.
Nidhi didn't expect her mom will be this cruel. She done mistake but he'd mom was punishing her more than she expected.

Today Varun was coming here and Nidhi was anticipatingly waiting for him, she is still in a little oscillation of what to choose and she didn't call him after that.
What is there to talk? He told his decision and it is now her turn to pick her own option.

She again rolled on her bed and felt like never wanted to get up. Everything in her life just pushing her into the deep dark hole where she couldn't find a slight beam of Illumination hope, she is searching for some sort of escape but then only she understood that getting confused again and again doesn't going to lead her in the better destination.
Life is not about getting confounded, it is about taking the decision and facing the rest courageously.

She just closed her eyes thinking this for a minute and the first thing that came before her eyes was Varun. Not only now, every time when she think about choosing her parents or Varun? only he was coming in front of her cause she want Varun but accepting that whole heartedly was her problem.

She sighed and stood up from her bed. She went to the bathroom to take a hot shower and came out feeling refreshed. She wore a normal Salwar and to that a jerkin to protect her from this cold. She tied her hair in a high pony tail and white skin was pale and dull.
The climate was so moody and the slight drizzles have made the buildings wet. Gazing out from her window Nidhi's eyes landed on Varun's house.

'When are you going to come?' she thought and turned. She came out her room to find her mom was busy packing all their belongings in a box.
"Coffee is there for you," she informed and Nidhi nodded her head and went to the kitchen.

After having that in a silence she noticed the rain started to pour little harder. Looking that she helped her mom in packing. The time moved fast and the rain stopped. The truck came for shift their belongings to their new home. Then she helped in carrying the things from her house to the truck.

After loading their belongings on the mini truck Nidhi and her mom gazed at her father who is going along to direct the truck driver to their new house.

When the truck became out of the site, Varun's dad car entered the street. She simply stood without having a hope that Varun will be there in it. Her mom also didn't ordered her to go instead she too looked at the car in a curious way.

The car stopped and Varun's dad stepped out, then out of expectation Varun came out giving surprise to both Nidhi and to her mom.

Nidhi's eyes immediately welled with tears to see him. The slight drizzles again started, it stroked her skin like 'Don't worry he is here for you!'

"Nidhi go inside!" her mom commanded in a disgusting tone for seeing Varun.

But nothing entered into her ear drums she was frozen and stood like glued on the floor. Her expression was like 'Please take me from here'

Varun gazed her intently, his eyes reflected the yearning he had for the past few days. He naturally have a strong heart and enduring capacity that is one of the reason for his success in his work, but without talking with Nidhi for the past days really frustrated him, in each passing second her thoughts were popping in front of his eyes and made him to miss her, terribly.
