"Its really a bad day bhai" Priyanshi sighed out her frustration when she heard about Navya from Abhik "Nothing is happening good today"
"What happens to you??Have ur boy friend forget to recharge your phone"Abhik joked with her only to gain glare from her
"First of all he isn't my boy friend secondly never forget the first one"she frowned later her expression change to gloomy one "its something serious"
Abhik raised his brows asking for the reason to which she started explaining the things which raised Abhik concern
All though they are neighbours but they share typical siblings bond of both hate and love they can tease each other a lot nd when situation they can stand for each other
"Come with me"he called her with him while starting his bike Priyanshi followed him
********
After somewhat setting Priyanshi's issue he was left alone again Navya's thought haunted him morning incident troubled him he was standing confused lost in some other world at the door of his house suddenly door get open as his mother opened the door for him when she saw her standing their lost
Inside view of his house shocked nd surprised him it was like his childhood when he used to get upset and then his parents used to decorate the house with his favourite toy and theme they used spend their day watching Abhik favourite cartoons ns movies even his mother with the help of his father used to cook his favourite meal
That time seems eternity to him its for the first time after his father's death they are doing something they used to like before, post his father death things has changed so much that they have stopped celebrating things but again going back to those days confusingly surprised him
"Does his mother knows about Navya incident?"he thought
"Yes I know whatever happened today"she stated sensing Abhik confused expression his mother's word pushed him more into shock world as he wasn't expecting this
"Tarun has informed everything"she answered sensing his confusion this time anger covered his face "that boy can't he keep a secret"he sighed in frustration
"That was the best move from his sude" her mother said taking Tarun side "He asked me to take care of you as they can't trust you" "Am I a small kid?" He thought to himself
"Come out from your thought land"his mother called him "They know you better so for your betterment they have informed me" and they are correct they know him well he thought to himself with a smile covering his worries "even they are the one who arranged everything" mother explained him
"And how you get convinced for this?"finally she heard his question which she was expecting "Post Papa's death we have stopped what we used to enjoy now why we are going back then?"
"Your question holds the answer"she smiled at him she continued seeing his confused expression "See life never stop for anyone we have to live in it and your father would be happy if we will try to be normal and it's a baby step"
He smiled at this mother agreeing with her no doubt she was his inspiration and source of energy
"And I should have done before only"her mother's word again make him confuse it seems like its his day ti get all shock nd surprises
"Huhhh?"
"I am your mother you relay upon me I have distanced myself from almost everything post his death now you are doing the same that's why I agree with them if I'll not change how will you"
"See beta people will come and go this is how life is we can't stop them from leaving some time situation forced the other one to leave even if they wants to stay like your father but things are never in our hand but handling ourself is in our hand" see said holding his hand making him understand
"have you seen escalator?"her out of context questions confused him but he nods at her "does it ever wait or stop for anyone it keep moving with people or without people" "life is like that only consider time as escalator if we will not go with the flow we will fall" (sorry for stupid irrelevant example)
"Navya leaving from your life must have some purpose she ends the relationship but she started sibling relationship with you may sounds stupid but then that Rakhi will stop reminding you from all moments whill will hurt u as a broken Aashiq"she laughed at last nd so Abhik
"Maa how can you think so postive?"he asked her "when life throws you into the dark single sparkle can be called as light" "In our situation we have to think positively or else its not possible to handle things" she answered him
"One more information Navya's family is leaving India forever"she informed him he nods showing no interest as that chapter has over already
"So in our talk we are delaying the celebration"she called her to near by couch "Cheers to new beginnings now onward we will start everything like we used to do" she said to Abhik who is now sitting near her
"cheers"
***********
Abhik was sitting near music school to sooth rest part of his mind as music can sooth anyone heart whenever he find his mind disturbed he come here as those learners of music nd instruments learners can sooth him better than orginal as he respects every Learner he chose come here as it will also encourage them
But today some things seems different like all day today music seems different to him he is so used to this that he can easily find the difference
Suddenly that different intrupted him
"Tum kabse ladki taadne lage?" Different yet familiar voice made him turn toward his back to answer the strom in his peace
"Aashi what are doing here?" He questioned her without answering her first question
"Same question"she answered her equally ignoring his question
"I asked you first"
"You are yet to answer my 1st question"
He sighed as he was lossing the verbal battle "To calm my mind" "whenever I feel disturbed this music school give me peace" she smiled at him "Now answer my question"
"I am learning piano here" he raised his brows as he can't believe how can a walking strom can give peace to turmoil of others mind "I have never seen you before"he told her rather question her "I used to come in the morning but college made me to change my timing"she answered
After this both went silent Aashi wants to ask him about Navya but stopped herself "You wants to ask something..Go for it" he said reading her expression
Aashi found herself out of word as she isn't expecting a direct question from him but God saved her as her eye fall on the tea stall
"Will you come for a tea?"she asked in one go
"Huhh?""Are you asking me for a date?"Abhik decides to play with her all though he knows she is not comfortable in directly asking him for normalising the situation she is including the tea
What?"No she said getting shocked "His tea is famous nd Suha and I have decided to treat you in college so for now I am calling you for the tea"
He smirked at her"But why?"he questioned her "As previously I have ruined your project and.."she answered him and?" "Join me there"she left from there without meeting his eyes he followed her
She has already ordered for two cups of tea when he joined her "Now will you come to the point"he stated directly leaving Aashi out of words again
"I know what you wants to ask so without any hesitation go for it"He finally told her again with the hesitation of reminding him of same pain she continued "H-Ho-How are you now?"
"I am doing good""But why are fumbling with words?" His actions and behaviour are enough to clear that he is okay now still Aashi wants to ask but was hesitating but Abhik made it easy for him
"Fear of hurting you again"she said while bringing the cups "Why will you hurt me?"he asked taking the cup from her hand "See I believe reminding someone about their pain can hurt them more"she shared her views while shipping her tea
"I don't know who hurts you but this is not how it work more you open of better you will feel and I believe to express myself and everyone should as more you run from the things you want to avoid more will they haunt you so accepting them will make the things easy"he said enjoying the tea she nodded trying to accept his views
"That's true"she agreed "but then we will end of hurting other" she counter "for once then things will be better for them once they open up"he said shipping the last part she nods
"Thanks for the indeed this is the best tea"he thanked her she smiled at him he was about to open his wallet for paying the bill but she stopped him "I already have payed the bill" "why?"he asked her "You forget it was a treat from myside actually Suhana and I were planning a lunch in near by cafe for asking your appology and I find you here so I called you for the tea"
"That wasn't needed though"he said scratching back of his head "okk next time if we will go together then u will pay 50% of the bill" "Why 50% not 100%?" "I love paying my own bill"she said wearing her spectacles
As they went to pick their respective vehicles near by hall brighten with all light as it was getting ready to welcoming the going to be couple as it is written "CHEERS TO NEW BEGINNINGS" when the couple entered
Starting their respective scooty and bike they leave for their place with satisfactory smile one out of guilt another embracing his not new but previous self
