I was sitting on my bed, eating ice cream. I felt so angry and sad at the same time. But again, I thought, just one day isn't going to change everything. So, I am gonna try again.
It went well for two weeks straight. My guitar lessons were going pretty well. I had learned some new chords. Abir often teased me about singing at the hospital.
He even showed up today in my guitar lesson. After the lesson ended, Abir asked me for coffee, we went to a coffee shop. I discovered something about him, he is hillarious. He loves his culture and songs a lot. He loves poetry, food and travelling. Whenever he talked about them, I could see the flames of enthusiasm in his eyes. I wish I could be a rich soul like him. He always gives out happy vibes.
We were walking across the street and I heard a weird sound. After finding the source, I found this one,

The moment I saw him, I knew he was coming with me. He was so cute. Seeing him playing around my room had reduced my stress a lot. It was so good to have such a cute pup around. I needed a name for him. How about Sparkle? Fixed then.
My mother noticed that I was dressing and styling myself differently. She only smiled at me and said that I was looking beautiful. I am sure she has suspected something, but won't say anything directly. She is one of the most intelligent women, I have ever seen in my life.
On the other hand, Yash's dad also assumed something. Nowdays, when I couldn't meet Yash, I left a note for him and Yash too would leave a reply note. When I meet him, I try to talk about other things outside our regular discussions. Uncle has been noticing these all. All these notes and living room conversations mixed with little laughter, made him believe that there is something going on between Yash and me. He tries to believe it, he wants it to happen. As I have mentioned before, he loves me a lot and knows his son. So, he wants us together.
It was Wednesday afternoon and my shift had just finished. I was so tired, I just wanted go home and rest. Suddenly, I heard a voice, and it was Abir.
"Hi, Natasha."
"Hey."
"I was thinking about having dinner with you. Are you free tonight? I can pick you up."
" Thanks a lot Abir, for asking but I have some plans for tonight. I hope you don't mind."
"Not at all, better luck next time, bye."
"Bye."
Well, I didn't lie to him. I do have some plans, in fact I'm being dragged into one. Sarah has found a new boyfriend and tonight, she is introducing me to him. I wonder how she always manages to get a new boyfriend so easily and so quick.
I don't want to go at all, I just want to throw myself on my bed, that's all I need for now. But after all she is my best friend, I have to endure this.
I came home, took a nice shower and got ready for fullfilling my bestfriend duty. Sarah called me, saying that she was downstairs. I quickly grabbed my purse and went down.
Sarah is very excited, in fact a bit too excited that we reached there before her boyfriend. Anyway, it is a fancy restaurant and I am liking it so far. I noticed that Sarah's expression suddenly changed.
"Nat, can you please exchange seat with me?", she said to me in an anxious tone.
"Is there any problem? You can see your boyfriend coming directly from there."
"Please do as I say."
"Alright, alright. But will tell me what is the problem? " I whispered.
When she told me nothing, I began to look around to find if something was wrong. But Sarah stopped me.
"Don't look there."
I looked exactly on that direction.
Yash was sitting with a girl. They were holding hands. Yash cupped her cheeks and then kissed on her hands.
I stood up and left the place immediately. I couldn't see things clearly. Everything seemed blurry to me. Sarah came after me but I removed her hand off from me and got into a cab.
