Reality : Not So Beautiful [COMPLETED]

"Let's go to that park." Saying this he pointed his finger towards a children park.

"Hmm" saying so I followed him.

As we walked in the almost empty park I gathered some courage to speak up "Monojit!"

"Yeah"

"Actually I.. I needed.. to say something to you." I said with slight tremble in my voice.

"Yes.. tell... you have my ears." He said.

"So.. last day I dodged your question... umm... you asked me that whether I had any crush or not.."

"Hmm... So you got your SRK..." he laughed.

"I am serious" I said with a serious face.

"Ou.. sorry sorry... continue please"

"Actually I liked someone in my school days. His name is Pranzal. Actually his behaviour, his simplicity, his choices always attracted me. In almost the end of class 11 I proposed him. He rejected. I was teased too much in school because he was a handsome guy and almost all the girls have tried on him and was rejected. We were in same group for doing all kind of project and stuff, so I knew him well... After that also he talked to me but less. I loved him dearly. I had no contacts with him since we left school. In college I wish I had any boyfriend but never made one. I busied myself in the books and studies. After my Ma forced me for marriage, I decided to move on from him. But yet I am not sure whether I have moved on or not. I always wanted a guy like him to be in my life. He respected people around him. Huh.... truly speaking I have met few people apart you via the dating app, but none of them were like me.. None of them respected my decision neither anyone had choices like me. I always feel the emptiness of Pranzal in my life although he was never my boyfriend but still there was something... So love... I wished he was in my life, but I know he will never be.. i don't know what to do... I am so confused... I want to move on but can't..." saying so my anxiety level increased and I fell into tears speaking all these.

Monojit just stared at me while I explained myself and suddenly grabbed my cheeks as I started to cry.
"Pritha.. hey Pritha just look at me... look here." Saying so he pulled my face up so that our eyes met.
"See Pritha.. everyone has their own past. It's nothing there to cry. I can understand your feelings. You want to move on right!! Yes you will move on. Just have faith in yourself. There is nothing wrong to love someone and it's really good that you have decided to move on in your life. And you are doing right... just go on many dates.. someone or other will surely be there who will understand you and support you.. you can take his help to move on. And see here... There are a lot of kind of people in the world. Many will not have similar thinking as of you. But some will. Just go and find them."

His words went straight into my heart. Right! He is right! I looked up at him. Our eyes met. He wiped my tears.
"Pritha.. you are such a sweet girl. Anyone would like to have you as their partner except some idiots.. And ignore them." He said smiling at me.

I smiled back and I blurted "And you?"

We looked into each other's eyes. I waited for his answer. My heart pounded.

He smiled. "I am not an idiot" saying so he drew my face closer to his lips and kissed on my forehead. We hugged each other. The warmth of his arms felt so secure.
