BeHir FF : Hamari Adhuri Kahani

Mahir's POV

I sat silently as everyone else discussed about the pre-wedding rituals. Soon they decided to conduct the Sangeet on 7th Feb.

Just then I heard someone call Bela. But what bothered me was the person addressing Bela as "Bela Darling".

I looked at Bela to see her reaction and it really broke my heart to see a wide smile on her face. The next thing she did broke my heart even further. She just ran to the guy and hugged him.

The guy, whose name was Vyom looked too much glad to meet Bela more than Yuvi and Juhi.

Vyom did it again. He called Bela as "Sweetheart" and he questioned her whether she missed him or not. I so wished to hear a negative answer but I knew it wouldn't be so.

You are engaged to Anu... Even Bela has the right to move on... My inner voice told.

But I still Love her... My heart replied sadly.

The every moment Anu questioned Bela and Vyom about their relationship. I breathed out in relief as I heard Bela, only to realise that I had held my breath waiting for Bela to answer.

Seeing her go with Vyom, chatting happily with him, made me go back in time remembering the time I was in place of Vyom.

Mahir??? I heard Maa.

As the saying goes "A Mother always understands her children's unsaid words", my Mother too understands it. But I try my best to hide my sorrows deep inside my heart.

Assuring Maa that everything is fine, I walked to my room when actually nothing was fine in my life.

That's not possible Mahir Bhai... Because it's Bela Di who prepared dinner and sadly she can't stay here permanently... Juhi said.

Until this moment the dinner was going on good even with Vyom present. I was shocked to know that Bela learnt to cook and that too she cooks so well.

Oh... Mahir said not knowing what else to say for my stupid talks.

Actually Bela can stay here permanently if Mahir wants... Vyom said and my head snapped in his direction.

All looked at Vyom confused, while he was busily enjoying his favourite Fried Rice prepared by his best friend.

Well yes, Bela could stay here forever, if me and Bela get married. But that wouldn't happen in this lifetime.

As he was about to eat another spoon he noticed everyone looking at him and he looked confused but later understood it.

I meant to say that, if Mahir makes sure that Bela's work wouldn't be completed soon, then Bela shall have to stay here only know... Vyom explained.

I saw Bela sign in relief and I realised that maybe she didn't tell about us to Vyom. Nor did she tell about us to her parents or sister and not even her friends.

Why would she tell anyone about you, when she isn't even serious about you??? My mind stated.

But she Loved me... My heart protested.

Maybe... Was the most minds reply.

____________________

From the past one month, my fights with Anu increased. The reason was Bela. I knew that Anu knows about my feelings for Bela. I also knew that Anu was insecure with Bela's return in my life.

Why did I agree to marry her??? I thought frustrated.

Because Anu attempted to suicide when you declined to marry her... So your Maa asked you to give Anu a chance since you had no one in your life... I got the answer from my own self.

Yes I had no one in my life but my heart was stolen long back only... I thought sadly.

____________________

I was deprived from my sleep and as a result I worked until I felt sleepy. I even woke up early and so decided to go to jogging earlier than usual.

____________________

My mind was just filled with Bela's memories as I was jogging.

I stopped after a while and cursed my stupid mind too, for it is only thinking about Bela.

Just then I felt that I heard Bela's voice.

Mahir... You seriously have lost it... I was going in the opposite direction but stopped as I again heard Bela's voice winching in pain.

Realisation dawned on me that Bela too comes to the same park for jogging. That was it, I decided to check on the source of the voice.

I was right, it was Bela. She had injured her foot.

What happened??? I asked.

Bela was startled to hear me suddenly.

I sprained my foot... She replied.

I simply held out my head for her to hold it for support.

After a minute she held my hand and tried to stand.

With many difficulties she stood up but failed terribly to walk. So having no option I lifted her in my arms. She was uncomfortable firstly and later she wound her arms around my neck. It was similar to how I would carry her back to her hostel room after our jogging as she would be tried. But the difference now was the awkward silence between us.

Once in her room, I treated her wound and gave her a painkiller. Surprisingly she accepted my help instead of declining it. Maybe because she had no other option.

I just hated the fact that Vyom spends his entire time with Bela.

As I was exiting Bela's room in the morning too, he came there. Even now Bela is sitting next to Vyom.

I sat down on my chair gladly that today Anu wasn't sitting next to me.

I don't know if Vyom was doing it on purpose or was it completely unintentional. But he always ended up talking about me and Bela.

Just then my phone rang. It was Ajit. I hadn't spoken to him in the past one month properly. Because I didn't wanted to tell about Bela to him. I rejected his call and sent a message that I was busy and will call later.

____________________

I was ordered to return home early by my Siblings and I had to agree unwillingly.

Once I returned home, I regretted doing so. Because I was forced to dance with Anu. I declined instantly but I was caved to do it.

I mentally made a note not to return home early from tomorrow.
