FEAR OF LOSING YOU

FOLY-14

Arh went to Luboid and kept his hand on his shoulders. While Sheh kneeled down beside him. Lub was totally shattered. He don't know what to do and how to rectify the mistake he committed. He found all the doors closed that could lead him to HIS ZAMI.

ARH: "Lub. Control yourself buddy. If you fall weak then who will pacify Zami. Cheer up man"

LUB: "How could I? I don't have even a slightest idea of what to do next"

SHEH: "Lub. First stop blaming yourself and think clearly. Talk to her friends and get to know her well. If you understand her, it will be easy for everyone"

LUB: "Yes. You are right. I must talk to her friends and should get to know her"

ARH: "But be careful with Mehak" At his this statement, Lub & Sheh shot a look towards Arham.

ARH: " What? I am saying the truth. Didn't you both see how she behaved with us when Zami is involved? It's a precaution yaar"

SHEH: "Yes. You are correct. But give her sometime. Leave it free for one or two days so that everyone will be relaxed. OK?"     Lub nodded and everyone left from there.

One week later.
        It was Friday and Zami was absent that day. Except Zami both Zak & Meh were talking normally with Lub,Sheh & Arh. That day there was no classes after lunch. So all 5 met at the canteen.

MEH: "I'm sorry everyone. For behaving rudely on that day. I don't know what came over me that day that I spoke without thinking. I'm extremely sorry"

LUB: "No Mehak. No need to say sorry. You are protective of your sister like friend and you are right at your point. Zami is lucky to get true friends like you & Zak"
    Meh look towards all and everyone nodded. After sometime and a lot of hesitation,Lub spoke.

LUB: "Mehak and Zakwaan.I want to  ask something to you both. Will you please tell me"    Meh & Zak exchanged glances and nodded.

ZAK: "Anything serious Lub?"

LUB: "No.No.I just wanted to know about Zami so that I could somehow console her"

MEH: "Oh.Okay. No problem. I thought something serious"   Lub smiled. "Okay. What do you want to know about Zami?"

LUB: "Everything. From her parents, childhood, adulthood till my entry in her life. Also her nature, likes and dislikes"

ZAK: "You seem so interested in Zami" He teased. But Lub nodded sideways shocking everyone.

LUB: "I'm not interested. But serious about her and about.....(he dragged) US"  He stressed. That brought brightest smiles to all the other faces. Zak stood up and hugged him instantly. All felt a bit emotional.

SHEH: "If your emotional session is over, shall we talk about Zami?"

     Everyone smiled sheepishly and Zak started followed by Meh. They shared almost everything except some deep secrets special to them.

ZAK: "And another important thing Lub. If once Zami starts liking a person, she will trust them blindly and will never doubt them. But, if such person betrays her and lets her down, she would be broken from inside.

    Hearing this, Lub's face fell. He lowered his eyes in guilt. Remaining
felt sorry for him.

MEH: "But there is another thing about Zami which you might like"

    Lub lifted his head and looked at her expectantly for which everyone chuckled. Lub smiled sheepishly and was eager to know about Zami.

MEH: "Whatever happens, once Zami starts liking a person she CAN'T DEVELOP HATE TOWARDS THEM. She might become hell angry, but will never hate or develop vengeance"
