WARNING:- NOT PROOFREAD

"He saw you!" Avni sighed, as the phone pressed to her ear. "He thought you were someone Maya sent to me, to kill me." She spoke into the phone only to get silence as the answer. 

Parth put the call on speaker as he realized the depth of the situation. They are at a dead-end, perhaps. Nobody knows what happened to Avni, but, as Parth's information, that was really an Accident. The truck driver ran away out of fear. He's nobody. 

"He's been so sure that Maya sent you. You are someone, here to kill Avni. So, he left fuming." Parth spoke biting his lower lip. 

"Parth put all these things aside. Ayesha needs rest." He said with a finality in his voice.

"But... You please don't come here. You're endangered, Sir!" Avni said, menacingly with her index finger pointed at the phone. 

Parth chuckled at her only to earn a slap for himself.

"Don't laugh, Bittu! It's because of you, he's behaving like this. So... He's not scared of me anymore, you know?" She whined, complaining to her best friend. 

"Oye..." He screamed from the other side. Both the friends snapped their heads towards the phone. "What did you just say? I'm not scared of you? Only if you know how scared I'm of you. If not, I'd be there with you at this minute. Not on this damn phone, talking to you." Avni and Parth smiled, glancing at each other.

"Let it be. We'll talk about this another fay. Now, you go to sleep." She just nodded her head at him. "I Love you!" Avni's eyes light up as a huge smile spread on her face. 

"I Love You too!" She said coyly. Parth laughed at both of them before cutting the call after wishing him a good night.

"I'll be outside! You sleep!" Parth said, pecking her forehead.

"Yeah!" Avni said before sleep engulfs her.

"Avni met with an accident?" Maya shoved her face into her palms as the question is lingering in her brain for the past one hour. More than that, the thing that Neil held her responsible for her accident is stinging.

Rubbing her face, she made her way towards the washroom. Maya came out of the washroom after 15 minutes. Her pale face looked more agitated than vulnerable, for the time she cried. 

Felling flat on her stomach on the bed, she let sleep took over her exhausted self, giving some rest to her stormy brain in the hope of finding answers for all those questions tomorrow, with a calm brain.

"Could Maya be the one, who did this to Avni?" Neil muttered under his breath, the words which formed as a question mark in the end. 

He was on the way to the hospital, but pulled his car out of the driveway, as the thoughts roaming in his mid are very disturbing. Banging the car door shut, he leaned on the car door, folding his hands against his chest.

"I'm seeing her for 25 years now. Could be that possible? I don't think that Maya can go to an extent that where she would be very ready to kill an innocent person!" Neil said to himself, gazing into a distance, which was covered with nothing but a black blanket with small lights adorning.

"No no no! Maya is not that person. She... She cant do that!" Neil gasped. "Had my words hurt her? Of course, Neil. What are you thinking about your best friend? She's your Maya, damn it. She loves you and loves the people whom you love. She can't even harm a non-living thing, let alone a person with a full life. Shit! What have I done? It's a mess now!" He talked to himself in a gibberish way. 

"Should I go back and say sorry?" Neil thought, before sitting on the driver seat. "No, she won't talk to me now. I'll message her now and talk to her tomorrow." He slapped his forehead for creating such a mess in their happy lives.

"What should I do now? Go to Avni?" Neil asked himself while scratching the nape of his neck. "No! Parth is there to take care of her. I will go to her tomorrow. Moreover, I blamed Maya in front of him. So, after clearing this mess, I'll talk to  him and clear his mind also." He nodded his head, before turning on the ignition and driving to his flat.

Avni Avni Avni... Who are you? What have you ever done to me that I fell head over heels for you? I know I Love You. But, what about my best friend? My Maya, who has so many hopes for me, that one day, we both will get married.  I blamed her today, for no reason! I should be more careful before talking to her like that. Causse, it has hurt her a lot and I so know that. Cause, she's my best friend yaar. I need no shreds of evidence to prove her innocent. I'm seeing her since she took birth. That much thick friendship ours is! Despite that, how my stupid brain pointed fingers at her? How? Maybe the love I have for you overtook my trust in my friend. I won't let that happen in the future. Yes! This is my promise to myself. 

Flipping the pages from first, he came across a strike on the title he writes every time. Neil then understood that how Maya knows that Neil loves Avni. She read his diary, and the words she stroke away were the ones he used, to describe his first kiss with Avni, on his birthday. 

Sighing at his inability to change the past, He closed his diary after scribbling down his heart in that Diary of his. Freshening up, he drank the half-filled juice in the glass which he took from the refrigerator.

"I Love You, Avni!" Neil whispered in the dark, gazing at the ceiling as he lied on the bed. Pulling the quilt over him, he shut his eyes close so that he can wake up early if he sleeps early, before whispering to himself, again.

"I Love You, Avni! And, nobody can take you away from me..."
