Somebody knocked the door. I looked up and found it was Avik .
Avik, my childhood friend. He had been there for me always. I felt lighter on seeing him because I knew he will put everything back in place. He approached me with a smile. I got up a little and placed myself against the edge of the bed. He sat beside me. There was complete silence, a soothing silence. He took out his handkerchief from him pocket and wiped away the smugged eyeliner. I still sat completely numb and looked down. I didnt have anything to say. He asked me to change into something comfortable. And yes! that did break the last little hope.
My engagement was called off!
