[Arya]:
My heart still craved for his presence. I craved to feel his warm hug. I wanted to hug him tight burry my face in his chest and cry my heart out but each time my heart felt weak, my mind flashed an image in front of my eyes and within no time, I would again turn mad towards him. Tears rolled down my cheeks making them warm.

[Darshan]:
I sat on the couch with a mug of coffee. I turned on the T.V and switched channels when I saw 'The fault in our stars' being telecasted on a channel; memories flashed in my mind.
(flashback)
I sat on the couch watching 'The fault in our stars'. My eyes were filled with tears and they slowly made their way down my cheeks warming them. Arya came and sat on the couch besides me. "No darsh, don't see these kind of movies. You know that you are an emotional kind of person, you cry easily when you watch movies and I can't see you crying. Please change the channel", she said and wiped off my tears blocking my view. "Arya please", I said in annoyance pushing her hand away. The adds started playing and she took the remote control and turned off the T.V. She huged me tight and said, "Please don't watch such movies, I hate when they make you cry", she sounded very serious. I made my grip around her tighter. "I love you", I said and rested my head on her shoulder. "See this is the side-effect of watching such movies", she funnily added. "Oh, so do you want to say that I don't love you? And you don't love me?", I flatly said. "Nope, I don't", she said and bit her lower lip. A wide smile stretched on her face. "Is it", I said and started tickling her. She started laughing loudly and almost fell on me. "Darsh leave me", she struggled to say between loud laughters. "Say. Do you love me? ", I asked. "I love you", she said and I stopped. "God Darsh, you sometimes act like a kid", she added and played with my hair. "I am one", I said with a smile on my face and winked at her. "I love you", she said and kissed on my cheek.
(flashback ends)
A small and pale smile automatically appeared on my face. My eyes turned moist and a tear rolled down from my left eye as I made my grip around the mug tighter. "Not again Darshan", Arya said, she stood near the T.V and looked at me. She turned it off and went back to her room. "No matter what you say Arya, but I know, you still love me", I whispered.

[Arya]:
I lied on my bed with my eyes closed. I just wanted some rest, from everything. My phone beeped, I checked the message. It was Shreya's - our best friend - message. Actually she was Darshan's best friend but when I met her she was so nice and friendly to me that it didn't take time for us to become best friends too. We would share each and everything with one another. The three of us were a blast together. "Hey stupid!! I left you guys alone for a few days and see what blunders you guys did", her message read. "By the way, how are you now? ", the following one read. "Okay... But what is this 'you guys' and 'blunders'?", I texted back. "You and Darshan stupid..!! I know everything. You brokeup with him, but I know you still love him. That's why you allowed him to stay with you", she added. Yes, maybe she was right, but I was weak enough to accept it, at least now. I was completely broken because I never expected anything like what he did to me. I never thought that one day I'll have to see that but he made me. "No, once you'll come back tomorrow, I'll kick him out, from my house and my life", I texted angrily but hesitated to press the send icon. My heart and brain again fought a mini war and as always, my brain won because of the nuclear weapon - the 'image' - it had, and I pressed the send icon. "Oh shit! I forgot to tell you that I'm not coming tomorrow. I'll come after three days", she texted back and my eyes widened. "What the.......", I added. "No.... You can't do this to me Shreya", I added another message as the glow on my face vanished. This means, I'll have to face Darshan three more days, God, I wanted to lock myself in my room and open the door only once Shreya comes back, I felt extremely helpless because I can't do that too as he would 'care' for me even more and that would feel like stabbing a knife again and again into the body of an injured, each time making a deeper cut. My phone beeped in my hands, bringing me back from my thoughts. "Sorry but I can't do anything..", Shreya replied. "Come back asap", I texted. I heard two soft knocks on the door which made me look towards it. "Hmm", I hummed. The door slid a bit making a small gap between it and the wall, Darshan peeped through the gap and said, "Come, dinner's ready". "Ya", I said. That was maybe the first time in a while when I replied to him properly. "Okay bye, talk to you later.... Going to have dinner", I texted Shreya. "Who made it?", she asked. I knew that she knows who made the dinner but wanted me to write down his name and remind myself about his presence in my house and life. "Obviously Darshan", I texted back in disgust. "Oh, then all the best dear", her message read, and my face clearly reflected confusion because of the unexpected reply. "What do you mean?", I asked. "You forgot!!!!! Try to remember.... How can you forget this..!!??", she replied making me more confused and curious. "What??!!", I added out of curiosity. "Remember what had happened when he last made dinner for us..", she texted making me go back in my memories.
