Something has changed .. not in the wrong way but neither in right way . I want to clam my heart down but it doesn't , not even a little bit .
And on the top of the list my cheeks..which is now pink by blushing so hard .
It's strange. How one small thing-one simple gift-can make you feel everything you've tried so hard not to.
I shouldn't be thinking about him like this. Kyuki vo mera dost hai , right? Not after everything I've been through. Not after what love did to me last time.
But tonight, something changed. And I can't pretend I didn't feel it. Even if I pretend when I look myself in the mirror the proof is written on my face .
He invited us to his party . I went there just because mahi forced me . And I thought it was okay . Cause ghar pe pade rehke bhi kuch fayda nahi hai .
when I walked in, my eyes searched for him anyway.
And when I saw him smile at me across the room, something inside me softened-just a little. Just enough to scare me.
He hugged me like he meant it. Like I wasn't just another guest, but someone he'd been waiting for. And that's dangerous, isn't it? Dangerous enough to warn me to take a step back . When someone makes you feel wanted without even saying the words.
I stayed near him all night. He didn't push. He never does. He's the quiet kind of safe-the kind that doesn't ask questions you're not ready to answer. The kind that makes you feel seen without being exposed.
Cause he always like this ? No !! The Rishi i know he never been this sweet towards a girl .
And yes maybe he act like this cause I'm his friend , right?
And maybe that's why I found myself alone with him in his kitchen , the noise of the party fading behind the kitchen like it wasn't important anymore.
He pulled out a tiny box from his black coat , Said:
"I got you something."
And I froze
He handed me the box .
Inside the box was a necklace. A simple silver moon. Delicate. Honest. Thoughtful in the way only he could be.
"It reminded me of you," he said.
And for a second, I didn't know what to do with that. Nobody has give me something so special so I can keep it with me other than my family. How do you hold something gentle when you've only known sharp edges?
Still... I asked him to put it on me.
I don't know why. Maybe I wanted to see if I could let someone close again , and yes I let him . Maybe I wanted to believe that not everyone wants to hurt me , he never did .
