The Heart Thief♥

♥ CHAPTER 25 ♥

Time flies
Memories fade
People change
But deep down
It still hurts.

1 year later...

Mumbai,
India

The alarm rang.

After 5 minutes of continuous ringing,  a girl, with her eyes still closed, snoozed the alarm for 10 minutes and slept again.

After 10 minutes,
The alarm rang again.

Having no option left, she turned off the alarm and woke up lazily stretching her arms.

The door knob opened and a girl of similar age entered into the room.
She smiled, ' Good Morning, Bela.'

Bela replied, ' Good Morning, Vish. '

Vish said, 'Good you woke up. Common let's get ready otherwise we'll miss the 8.40 am train.'

Bela nodded.

Both started getting ready in their respective rooms.

It had been almost a year since they left Dehradun.

Everyday they would wake up at 7 am, freshen up, prepare the breakfast for themselves, arrange their books and leave the home by 8.25 am.

By 8.35 am they would reach the railway station and board the local train of 8.40 am.
They would reach the college by 8.55 am.

Their college time was 9 am to 1 pm.
After eating something in the canteen, they would left for their jobs at 1.30 pm.

Bela was working in a library.
She being a book lover was fond of her job.
Vish was working as a dance teacher in a dance class.
Luckily, both got job according to their interest.

They would return to their flat by 6 pm, prepare and have dinner, study and sleep.

( Bela- Vish's flat.
The bedroom on the top left corner is of Bela and the bedroom on top right corner is of Vish)

Currently, Vish was lying on her bed remembering the night which changed everything.

Flashback:

Bela was running towards the entrance of the resort with a tear stained face when she collided with Abhay and Vish.

Seeing Bela's state, both were shocked.
Knowing how Bela is, they knew that she'll never cry for a small thing.

Abhay immediately cupped her face and asked, ' Bela, What happened? Why are you crying? '

Bela tried to deny but Abhay cut her in between, ' No excuses Bela. I just want to listen the truth. '

Bela said, ' Okay. But promise me that you both want tell about this to anyone. '

Abhay and Vish promised.

Bela narrated them the whole thing, right from her feelings for Mahir to Ruhi's fiasco.

Vish was shocked and Abhay's face was red with anger.

He gritted his teeth, ' How dare that Mahir Sehgal to play with your feelings? I won't spare him.'

Abhay was about to go when Bela stopped him, ' He never confessed his feelings. It was I who misunderstood his flirting as love.
And You've promised me Abhay that this thing should not be mentioned to anyone and that includes Mahir too.'

Abhay and Vish agreed reluctantly and dropped Bela at her house.

Next day,
Both went to meet Bela.

Vish put a hand on Bela's shoulder and asked, ' Bela, What do you want to do now? '

Bela replied, ' I want to start a new life at a new place.'

Vish and Abhay were happy that Bela was not completely broken.

Suddenly, Vish remembered something.

She said, ' Bela that offer letter of London university..'

Bela interrupted her in between, ' It's of no use now. When I realised that I love Mahir, I rejected their offer. '

Abhay asked, ' So, Bela what will you do now?'

Bela replied, ' Don't worry. I am planning to go to Mumbai.
It has some good management colleges. '

That night Vish took a firm decision to accompany her best friend to Mumbai.

The only thing which was stopping her was the thought of leaving Vikrant.

But Vikrant proved to be a great boyfriend.
He understood her point of view even before she explains him the reason for taking such decision.

He said, ' Don't worry Vish!
You need not to explain me anything.
My love is not so weak that it gets less with the distance.
And I'll come to meet you girls whenever I get time. '

Since then, Vish and Vikrant were a perfect example of long distance relationship!
