A week later,
Darshan:
'What's wrong?? Since Uncle came, you don't seem to be happy, all good??' asked Dhruwal. We were sitting in front of the balcony at midnight. 'I am happy that Dad's here. Just don't feel good these days' I replied. 'Fought with Malhaar??' asked Dhruwal. I nodded no and replied 'Now, our fights are gonna be meaningless'.
'Sorry?? What do you mean?' Dhruwal asked. 'The guy we saw with Malhaar, that day, in restaurant is her boyfriend. Seems like, they have been dating for so long. She wasn't sure whether to share this news with me or not. Like wow. Why do I even exist?' I replied. 'Relax. Darshan, stop shouting. Breathe' Dhruwal replied and made me sit. My eyes were filled with tears. Who says, boys don't cry? We cry.... 'Bro, what's wrong if she dates someone?' asked Dhruwal. 'Theres nothing wrong but she could've atleast let me know. Don't I deserve to know?? Fun fact: She used to hide posts from me' I replied. 'You are over reacting' Dhruwal replied. 'I want sometime alone' I replied and asked Dhruwal to leave myself alone in the balcony but Dhruwal didn't leave. 'I know, you are upset on her but there must be a reason' Dhruwal replied. I ignored him. 'You are being rude' Dhruwal said. I ignored. Together, we both were looking at the sky with 100's of stars. And there was a shooting star, I closed my eyes and prayed that Malhaar stays happy forever. I could hear Dhruwal smiling and saying 'Toothta Taara se Dua mangna Kabhi bhulta Nahi hai tu'

Next morning, Dhruwal, Dad and I were having breakfast together while out of nowhere Dad asked 'Where is Malhaar?? Haven't seen her visiting here since I came. Everything fine between you guys??'. I looked at him and confidently replied 'Yes. She is busy with her work, doesn't have time for us'. I felt guilty for lying but I had no other option, though.
It's weird. It's been more than a week since the last time we talked. Not to lie, I do miss her having around me. I completed my breakfast, went to my room, picked my phone and called Malhaar. 'Whats wrong?? Where have you been??' I asked. 'Nothing. All good. Thought you were upset on me, decided not to call' She replied. 'I am not. Dad wants to meet you. Come over??' I asked. 'I really want to come but Vishal and I have planned a date tonight. I will come tomorrow and will meet you all. Say uncle hi from me' She replied. 'Ok fine. See you tomorrow' I replied and disconnected the call. I wish, I had her around the way I used to. She doesn't have time for me anymore....

I went to my studio and decided to continue the incomplete song. I closed my eyes and sang what so ever came to my mind.

'Aasman se kya khata huyi,
Taara uska tootha kyu??
Log mujhse puchte hai,
Saath apna choota kyu.
Kya majbooria, kaisi hai yeh Dooriyan, Dil yeh samje na.
Hote hai pyaar mein aisi bhi imtehaan, Maine ab jaana.
Khaab hi bas reh Gaye, Jin mein ho tum humsafar mere.'
.

I am back, after two months. To be honest, I didn't want to continue writing fan fictions anymore but then I decided to complete this one and just end it. I have been really busy in quarantine with studies and other stuffs. I am so sorry for not uploading for so long.

Happy World Music Day 🎶

Keep reading, keep loving and Spreadlove 💙
