Life Toh Aise Hi Na. (Fanfic Of YJHD)

Chapter 30

Avi's POV

" Dude, I'm standing outside your flat. Open the door!"

I sent a text message to Bunny, after knocking the door for the past 10 minutes.

The door opened, and Bunny silently welcomed me to his home with a smile plastered on his face.

As i entered, the flat was filled with mess and smelled like a chimney, I turned back towards Bunny.

And realized that he had lost immense weight, his face etched with tiredness and the eyes spoke of his saddness that he was drowned in.

" Finally, I get to meet you! It's been so long since we talked.." I said, trying to start a conversation

" Yeah, it's been quite long. Kaise ho?( How are you)" Bunny uttered as he went to into the kitchen " There is only coke, you okay with it?"

I chuckled and replied " Yeap.. sure" while i walked over to the kitchen and sat on a chair

" I just met Aditi a while ago, and I have to say this but she became slightly chubby yaar..Chomu ki Moti". I said,trying to uplift the mood.

Bunny chuckled slightly as he sat beside me, passing over the coke can. " So what brings you here?"

" Bas aise hai" I replied, taking a sip of the coke

" Sach batao ( Tell me the truth)" Bunny smirked

" Arey.. What is wrong with you both. I can't come over to meet you guys?" I said with my eyebrows furrowed amd arms crossed over

Bunny forced a soft smile on his face  " Madhubala drama, bandh karo and tell me"

I grinned at him, thinking of how much i missed him and our conversations

" Well,I'm getting married in a few weeks.." I said, placing the invitation card on the table

Bunny choked while drinking coke, glaring at me " You serious??"

" Haan yaar.. Seems like the time has come for me as well" I replied, chuckling

Bunny quickly stood up and hugged me, slapping my back. "Congratulations!"

The overpowering tobacco smell on him caught my attention, " Bunny... Have you been smoking?" i asked, pulling myself back

Bunny ran his fingers through his hair and nodded his head as he sat back on the chair

" I'm okay, don't worry"

My eyebrows scrunched " you are okay? Bunny, you look like hell! and look at your house, it's just fucked up"

Bunny smiled sarcastically and looked up to me " Yeah..my life is fucked up"

I glared at Bunny for a few seconds and took out a deep breath, calming myself down as i sat beside him.

Both of us remained silent for a few minutes, staring at the blank wall.

" I wasn't there when dad passed away, I wasn't there when you needed help, I wasn't there when Naina needed me and my baby passed away just because of me" Bunny spoked, breaking the silence

" You were right Avi, I was always drowned in the thoughts of fulfilling my dreams that i forgot to care about my loved ones needs and desires. I'm just a selfish idiot!" he said as anguish tears leaked from his eyes, as he closed his face in shame

Tears trickled down from my eyes, watching Bunny breaking down infront of me. I hugged him tightly in silence

" Bunny, stop blaming yourself for situations that wasn't in your control and did you get to meet Naina?"
