Shruti could not move to the next picture…She keeps rewinding the day…How she proposed him,how he made her dance…She has tried her best not to think about him for the past three years…But she cannot do that…She gets his memories whenever she crosses his class in college…On the last day of her college,she thought that she wont get his memories as she has finished her college…But now this picture made her think about him…
Shruti’s pov :
I have tried my best not to think of u…But I cannot…I keep on cheating myself by saying that u mean nothing to me…And I know…I am a loser…I should have told u that I loved u…But even now I could not say that to u…Because things wont work out between us…If we are married,we will be continuously quarrelling with each other…And I know that u did not love me and u never will…So,I thought of hiding my feelings..Now u have gone far away and I heard that u did not even come once in these three years…U might have got married to ur girlfriend by now…I pray to God that he gives happiness to u…”
She got tears in her eyes…”Stop it Shruti…Move on”,she says herself…
