Soulful Distraction

✿ It's About Feeling The Love ✿

(Zoya's Perspective)

It was quite surprising that after Aditya, who is my best friend as far as I was aware about the bond that we shared became honest and told me that he was trying to control his emotions without letting me know the truth and finally confessed to me about the love he has for me, I didn't feel anger for him. I didn't feel that he had actually tried avoiding me for the past week perhaps since I could understand the situation that the both of us were in and the whirlwind of emotions stirring in his mind.

As soon as Aditya asked me to come dance with him, the tears that I had been crying for long seemed to have dried off slowly. I felt as if I was starting to begin living a new life and I extended my hand towards Aditya and placed my right hand gently on his palm. Aditya smiled broadly and at once he tightened his grip on my hand and pulled me towards him. I was taken aback with the pull but once I was near him I couldn't concentrate on anything else apart from gazing at his magnetically charming eyes.

There was a glint of shine hidden on them which made me dumbstruck. He walked ahead of me and soon both of us were standing in the middle of the hall while the music started blaring through speakers. Aditya was still holding my right hand with his left and we were just looking at each other as if we were noticing each other for the first time. Once the words started playing along with the soothing music, Aditya held me by my waist lightly while my left hand automatically went to hold Aditya's shoulder.

Ishq bulaava jaane kab aave
Ishq bulaava aave - jab aave..
Main ta kol tere rehna
Main ta kol tere rehna..

Main ta - baitha kol tere...

Tainu takda rawaan - Baaton pe teri hansda ravaan
Pagal main khud nu banaanda ravaan...
Tu hansdi rave, main hansaanda ravaan
Tainu takda ravaan...

We started moving to the music in sync. Aditya and I were turning around at a slow pace, holding each others hands and moving rhythmically. Aditya had a small smile playing on his lips while I couldn't help but adore that smile. He started singing the song once the lyrics started and I who was solely concentrating on our first dance that we were sharing willingly didn't realize that Aditya's voice was sounding so soothing to my ears. I've never heard him sing before and it felt surreal. I could hear his voice singing more than the original singer's voice affecting my mind.

Ajeeb rangaan di tu hai badi
Lage alag hi jahaan di...
Ajeeb rangaan di tu hai badi - Lage alag hi jahaan di...

Aditya and I were dancing our hearts out happily living the moment. We had reached the stage where the dances were meant to happen in the chamber with each step we took. Aditya stepped on to the stage with which he left my waist which he held by his right hand but the grip of our hands didn't break for a second. I was surprised the moment he winked at me and in an instant held my waist tightly and lifted me on top of the stage. He turned me around in air thrice with a laughter that melted my heart and I was smiling with him too. I already knew that it was my time to sing the song though I couldn't help but blush when Aditya was putting me down slowly. Once our faces were at par, his eyes held a strong gaze which I couldn't just ignore and I completely forgot the lyrics to the song. It was a moment of our dance which made me feel shy and I immediately looked down with a smile.

Ae to nazraan nazraan di gal ve - Tu vi sun le zara
Main ta kol tere rehna
Main ta kol tere rehna
Main ta rehna kol tere...

Tainu takdi rawaan - Naina 'ch tere main vasdi ravaan
Paagal main khud nu banaunda ravaan
Tu hansdi rave - main hansanda ravaan
Tainu takda ravaan
