Mine

Found her!!!

It was really weird.  I was about to get married in three months and still we couldn't find Kiara.  We tried to look for her when Siya got married,  even Jay tried to look for her when he married Anika,  but it seemed she had vanished from the face of the earth. She was  nowhere to be found,  not even on social  media . I really wanted her to be there with me at this time.  I sigh. That day we read her diary, was the last day we saw her . I never imagined that our friendship would end up like this.  

The doorbell sounded pulling me out of my thoughts.  I quickly went and opened the door. It was Siya. She hurled herself onto me,  hugging me tight,  the book she took home three days back,  in her hand.  " We found her Van !!!!  It's her!!  It's her! " , she squealed. " Calm down! Found whom?? " , I asked.

My heart was banging with excitement in my chest as I sat in the car,  Siya beside me.  If it was really her,  it would be difficult for me to decide if I should  kill her with a hug or with a punch . I would kill her anyway.  Siya stopped driving. "We're here. ",Siya said unbuckling her seatbelt. I silently got down the car after Siya and followed her to the front door of small white house we'd stopped by. Ringing the doorbell,  we waited.  It opened after a while revealing a middle aged woman.  " Yes? ", she asked politely. "Um... We're old friends.  We want to meet Kiara Singh Gill.", Siya informed.  The woman nodded and invited us into the house,  leading us to the living room. We sat  down on the sofa in the living room.  The  house was nothing extravagant but it was really cozy. The walls were painted in blue and the sofa we sat on was such navy blue colour with fluffy soft cushions. If anyone who knew Kiara,  came here, they would never fail to recognize this place as her house.  There was a  certain something about the house that was uncannily like Kiara herself.  It had a kind of muted beauty about it,  I think that is the aspect that reminds me of Kiara.The middle aged woman who instructed us to wait here, hadn't come back yet.  Siya was looking at the pictures on the wall.  There were quite a number of those. Some of them were Kiara's pictures.  Some had her parents in them. But two pictures  caught Siya's eyes, and so she beckoned me towards herself.  " That's Jay! " ,she said unbelievingly. I was kind of shocked,  but then again,  you need to get used to these impossible feats only Kiara can achieve when you're friends with her. So even though a part of me was shocked to find the picture that had Kiara along with the already married Jay and Anika , another part of me was cool AF.  But the question that was nagging me was - if Kiara already met Jay last year,  why didn't he tell us?  Did he forget to?  Then again he never paid much attention to her now,  did he?  Siya's expression somewhat mirrored mine. She sighed loudly. The  other picture was of us- Me,  Siya and Kiara.  I smiled at Siya. She returned the smile. We were just standing there looking at the old us,  being kind of sappy and nostalgic when  a voice came from behind us. " Vanshika!  Siya! " , said the surprised and boggled voice . I could recognize that voice even if I was a mile away.  It was Kiara.
