CHAPTER 28

[darshan]
We walked back home silently. But that silence wasn't awkward. To know more about her I asked her, "What are the things u r most afraid? ". Silence followed a light smirk when I almost made a joke of myself, "I swear I am totally afraid of lizards.. They scare me like dinosaurs". She smirked again and then looked at me. "U wanna know? ", she furrowed her brows and I looked at her expectantly. "I am afraid of closeness, attachments and most importantly love... Because all of them bring one painful twist that is heartbreak. And according to my life history, whenever I got love or affection, I was subjected with sabotaging pain which nearly killed me... Which put off the fire of living in me... ", she says with her wet eyes. I don't know how she gets enough strength to push back the tears when all u need is to let them out. But, I want her to be the way she is. "Well.. Was Alia like Aditi? ", I asked her. "Means?? ", she asked confused. "I mean.. In her interviews as much as I saw she was so bubbly and cheerful and happy... So light mood..", I cleared my point while she smiled and looked at me, "U used to watch her interviews?", she asked. "I would manage to.. My dad wouldn't let me to watch TV often", I stated and she laughed a bit. "Well.. I didn't get my answer", I reminded her of my question. "She had to be... At last, it was her dad's reputation.... Well do u remember her birthday? ", she darted a question. "Well--umm--um", I was numb. I had forgotten it. However, she was dead 4 to 5 years ago,  I mean a sort of.. "I expected that only..", she said. "R u angry? ", I asked. "No.. Not at all.. Even I don't remember it.. ", she said lightly. "Really?? ", I echoed. "Yes.. Despite being Alia Singhania, I never celebrated my birthday... I have an early remembrance of my 4th birthday when I served food to the orphans and now I am one", she clarified herself. "Who said that u r an orphan?? Don't u consider my family as your own?? ", I tried to make her emotional but she was different. "My life has given me enough experience to believe on.... Soon I would be losing it all and I don't mind in that coz u can't hold anything for long... Even if you try or want to hold something... Nothing lasts forever so does love", she said and that was when I saw the world from her perspective.. The real world. We might console anyone anything but the pain through which they go is indescribable. It is them who suffers not us.. It's easy to console but to go through that path is difficult. "Chuck that.. Don't be serious ", she said in the Alia Singhania style for which I would fall for every time. We met  hardly a month ago and now she trusted me enough to say me about her past. She opened up her life to me. But because of this, I craved more to indulge myself into her but a part of me was convinced that she would open up to me if she wanted.. "I think I will join my work from tomorrow ...so say aunty not to wait for me and u also don't stay awake till late", she informed me. I wanted to ask why but I didn't. She was comfortable with her work so she should do what she wants. "--And -- I am searching for an apartment... I have to visit one.. So I may turn up late", she said. "Why?? ", this time I asked. "Obviously Darsh, I won't stay in ur house for my whole life.. ", she said. "Darsh?? ", I asked. "I thought of giving u a nickname ", she said rubbing the back of her neck. "That's cool", I commented. She just smiled. "Never let that smile go off your face miss Alia Singhania ", I said. "Don't call me by that name please... I hate it.. ", she said making a pucker face. I understood why she said so.. She is just adorable... I don't know why but I just wanted to give her all the happiness in the world...
