The Miracle We Met

Chapter 33 - Promise

We were sitting in the cafe as it was showering outside. But this time, we were not alone. Darsh was also sitting right in front of us. By that time, Chanyeol recognised who was he.

"It's really a coincidence to meet you here. I thought you were busy in your seminar." Darsh said looking at me.

"How do you know about it? And why do you know?" Chanyeol rolled his eyes.

"He must have.." I was going to tell Chanyeol something when Darsh said again,

"So he is the one! I thought you were talking about any person, Indian who is living in another country." He pointed towards Chanyeol, "Can you take off your face mask?"

"Why?? Why should I? And what he is talking about?" Chanyeol looked at me now.

I tried to say something when Darsh spoke again,

"She said that she has someone who is living overseas..I didn't know he is a foreigner."

"What...you told him first and I am being told today. So late... How can you do this?" Chanyeol said in a quite loud voice. I don't know why he was over reacting.

"What!! Did she confess you today only?" Darsh interrupted, who was surprised too.

"It's none of your business. Please stay away from our matter." Chanyeol replied angrily to him.

"Chanyeol, can we talk about it later." I was still struggling to get space to speak. As they were not letting me to open my mouth.

Chanyeol crossing his hands, rested his back on chair and started looking in opposite direction. I don't know why he was acting so weird.

"I'm really sorry for his behaviour." I apologized on Chanyeol's behalf.

"Why are you saying sorry?" He again said in a loud voice.

"Can you please be quite for a minute? Let me make things clear to him." I calmly said to Chanyeol.

"What do you want to make clear? Now he knows me..now he knows we are couple.. nothing is left. Why he needs to know? " Chanyeol still didn't allowed me to say something.

Darsh, by then, was just looking at him and smiling.

"That's why your wish is to visit South Korea..as I can guess he is from there."
Darsh said after a pause.

"What's wrong with that? Of course, she will come with me. I will take her..so you don't need to worry."Chanyeol said to him.

"Yes!! Actually today's meeting was not planned at all..he came here to give surprise." I tried to say.

"He seems to be quite rich then." Darsh taunted.

"Of course, I am..I guess you don't know me. I own a building in Seoul." Chanyeol said proudly.

Darsh laughed a bit. And I was like what is he saying.

"I think your story of first meeting must be quite interesting..I want to hear it." Darsh looked at me.

"Give me your number." Chanyeol said suddenly.

"Why?" Darsh questioned.

"I will tell you our story from the very beginning..why to bother her. Just give me your number..fast." He showed his phone to him.

"Chanyeol, please stop it now. It's embarrassing." I said taking his phone away.

"Wae???what I did?" Chanyeol said making a puppy face.

"You both are cute. I know why he is behaving in this way." He looked at Chanyeol,

"Hey bro..don't worry. She is just my friend. I won't be taking any step further. If you ever need my help don't hesitate to ask me. I will try my best to help you."

Darsh said and stood up.

"I think.. drizzling has stopped. So I will be taking my leave. Nice to meet you bro."

He moved his hand for shaking, towards Chanyeol.

Chanyeol finally calmed down. He stood too and shaked hand with him, and said,

"I hope you will support her as a good friend. Hope we never meet again." He smirked.

I was like..Darsh was being such a polite person and Chanyeol..is that a way to greet someone..

Darsh smiled again and left.
We looked at our phones.. Chanyeol need to leave for airport soon. So we booked a cab and left for airport.

"Aren't you going to say something?" Chanyeol looked at me with his innocent face.

"I think you should say sorry to me first." I acted like I was angry.

"Ohk..I'm really sorry..I just lost my head when I saw him taking so much interest in you. You have made very clear to him but still.. hey..what he was saying..what you said to him earlier.. about someone living in another country." Chanyeol shifted from apologizing to teasing.

"Nothing.... I.... just told.... him what was true." I stammered.

"Oh really!! But you told me that he was convinced with the fact that you want to focus on your career. You didn't say anything about "that someone"to me." Chanyeol said again with his wicked side smile.

He was trying to tease again and again. I started looking outside the window.

Chanyeol took my hand and wrapped it around his arm. I looked at him. We just smiled and started looking outside the window in opposite directions.

We were preparing ourselves to get separated. Happy moments always pass within a seconds. Our.. was going to be over too. An unforgettable memorable day was going to end soon. That day, it was like time was passing very fast. We wanted it to slow down but still it didn't..

Soon we reached airport.
As we came out of the car..we moved towards lounge area. It was getting dark now and I had to return to our hotel as soon as possible. As it would take time to go back so Chanyeol said that I should go now. It was getting late.

We were standing facing each other. I couldn't say anything. I was just looking at him with watery eyes. Again, he had to depart. The moment which I hate the most.

He came close to me and squeezed me tightly in his arms and said,

"Take care of yourself. I know we have to think something about our future. We will make some way out. Till then let's be each other's strength."

Then he came to his previous position and said,

"Promise that you will tell everything that bothers you. We will hide nothing from each other just like we have been. Nothing will change between us as a friend.. alright." Chanyeol said.

I just nodded my head in yes. He came closer again, gave a forehead kiss and said bye.

He turned around and went, without looking back.

I stood there for a long time till he disappeared in the crowd.
