Today was a very hectic day for me! I sigh and looked towards the endless sea infront of me,

yes, I was sitting here, in the juhu beach at midnight! as every single second after that day when I close my eyes and tried to sleep his face and those greenish blue orbs came in front of my face haunting me and I just can't sleep.

It just become a daily routine for me and I'm just fed up about it So,today instead of going to my house I ended up here I closed my eyes and take a deep breathe and continue to look at the sea as the water touched my feet, I felt rcalm.

I don't know but whenever I came here I felt that the sea took away all my worries with it and I feel relieved.

I love to stare at the moon sitting over here.

Today the moon was looking more beautiful than ever while shining with all it's glory and the water was just giving it an ethereal look. I just lost myself in it's beauty and didn't noticed that I was the only living sole in this desearted area because it was past midnight.

I don't know for how long I was sitting over there and staring at the moon when I suddenly hear some wierd sound like something was been thrown into the sea I turn my head towards the left and saw a man sitting over one of the rocks, just a few meters away from me throwing pebbles itno the sea.

I wasn't able to see his face properly as it was dark I can sense that he didn't noticed me and he was lost some where. I continued to look at him as I felt that I saw him somewhere but I just cant remember at that moment after some time when I didn't recognise him I just shook my head wid a frustaded look and again started to look at the sea and just get lost in it

I was just thinking about him,the man who was the reason behind my sleepless night when I heard a groan and the next moment a pebble came in my way and I got hurt at my elbow. It was the pebble thrown by the same guy I saw a few mins ago.

"aah" I cried in pain and started blowing air on my injured part as blood came oozing out of it from the corner of my eyes I can see that the guy now sensed that I was also there and the next moment he start taking small steps towards me.

I didn't move from my spot and continue to blow air on it. Now he was just behind me

"hey..are u ok???" he asked while keeping his hand on my shoulder. The moment his hand came in contact with my body a shiver ran down my spine and my breathing become faster "what is happening with me??" I thought when he again shook me as I didn't responded to him.

"hey..! r u ok??" he asked again and I just noded my head still not looking at him.

"I'm really sorry for hurting u as I was just lost and didn't saw u.." he continued while forwarding me his handkerchief. I turn my head towards him and the world seeems to stop for me the moment I saw him.

He had those same beautiful DAMN orbs which was the reason behind my messed up life and sleepless night. the same face which i saw everytime I close my eyes...!! I will never forget that day when I first saw him.

Today was my interview and I want everything to be perfect but to my bad luck it seems impossible!!

firstly, I woke up late and all credit goes to this stupid alarm clock who always make it's horrible sound in the worng time and not at the time when I needed it the most and the same thing happened to me now.

"the first thing I'll do when I reach home is to throw this shitty clock out of my house" I thought while taking shower.

A beautiful infinity shaped locket adorned my neck . It was my lucky charm which was gifted to me by my staunchest old chap on my 18th birthday. My favourite bracelet on my right wrist and a watch on my left.

I skipped my breakfast and headed for my scooty keys when I tripped and I noticed that my slipper broke and i began to fixed it. finally I fixed it and U rushed towards my scooty and headed towards my destination.

On my way towards the office I stopped at the singal and waited for it to clear when I noticed an old lady trying to cross the road but couldn't.

Although I was running late but I couldn't refrain myself for helping her so I parked my scooty at the side and put my helmet down and headed towards her.

Suddenly I stopped at my tracks when I noticed a handsome man dressed in a white shirt and black waistcoat with black trouser, looking like a greek god approaching her. His magical blue eyes was so intoxicating that I was just staring at him and was so lost in him that I forget, I was late for my office.

I saw him talking to the old lady and then he took her hand in his and made her cross the road.

My eyes were following his every moves. After making her cross the road I saw the lady smiling at the words he just said and then she kept her hand on his head giving him blessing and he just smiled and went towards his car and drove away. I kept staring at the back of the car until it went out of my view.

"yeah I'm fine" I whispered not able to take his piercing gaze, his eyes were looking more beautiful in the moonlight and I wished that I could just pause this moment for lifetime but it didn't happened.

"I'm really sorry" he said with a small smile, my heartbeat increased as I felt a connection, well I too don't know what was the connection.

"It's Ok" I said and smiled, today was something not good in his eyes, something was missing, the eyes which I see in my dreams were full of enthusiasm, there was sparks but now it seeemed dull, pain was abundant in them.

I didn't know my estimation regarding his eyes was actually firebacking me, I felt lke a fool in front of him as I gawked at him.

Annika what the hell are you doing? , I chidded myself with a slight smack at the back of my stupid mind.

"Is there something on my face?" he asked and my face palmed, I was embarrassed "Yes, I mean no, come sit here" I said tapping my hands beside my side and he smiled, something was still missing.

We sat there, looking at the endless sea in front of us, the illumination of the moon was falling over our forms "Life is really complicated" he started.

I was startled but I gain my composure and waited for him to say something more but nothing came in my way. But thought to reamin silent, after what felt like eternity he broke the silence.

"Why is it always that the one we loved the most had to go away from us?" I turned my head to look at him and realized he was still looking at the sea, I sigh well who would not know the answer better than me?

But I still prefered to be silent, as I wanted him to continue, "I loved my grandmother very much she was like a mother to me, or I say more than that but she left me" he gave a defeated sigh.

"Sometimes we need to let go people who are close to our heart" I said, well it was an instant reply which led him to look at me with tearful eyes.

"You know what, I lost my parents when I was just 17 well, God had always been cruel to me but see here I'm, I have everything I wished, and I know my parents are always close to my heart" I said as if trying to make him understand, his face fell "I'm sorry, I wouldn't hav---" he tried apologectly but I cut him off"It's Okay, I'm used to it" I said with a small smile while he too reciprocated it.

"Sometimes not having soemone with you doesn't show that you are alone, they will always be in your heart" I said and was hesistating to held his hands but with much courage, I took it and squeezed it a little to make assure him.

He didn't did anything which shows that I did soemthing wrong else he too kept his hand on mine and said a thank you.

"Thank you for listening to my talks, I don't know how and when I told everything to you, but now I'm feeling better" he said and the spark which I thought was lost wtith in his colourful eyes, came making my heart swell with happiness.

"sharing your thoughts with a stranger feel really great So I can totally understand it" she said and smiled.

"yeah I think so" he replied with a sweet smile.

We sat there in silence for sometime,and didn't realize when dawn came, He stood up making me come out of my thoughts and extended his hands towards me, taking as an action to stoood up I slipped my hands onto his and stood, "What happen?" I asked confused.

"Just stay like this" He whispered looking ahead of him in the endless sea, "But-"

"See that" he said while looking at me, pointing toward sea and I turned my head in confusion but it was soon turned into an awestruck one,the scenery was unexplainable, the sun rising, from above the sea was the most beautiful scene ever, I smiled whole heartedly "Isn't it beautiful?" he asked softly, I just noded my head, not able to make a sentence.

"You know what this is one of my favourite spot" I said looking at him after a few minutes" and maybe it had become mines too" he said and both smiled at each other.

"Okay then I think we should go" I said half dejectedly "yeah I too think"he said glancing at his phone's screen.

I started to take small steps away from there not before saying him goodbye, hoping that we can meet once again.

"Hey by the way what's your name?" he aksed stoppping me at my tracks, I just turned and smiled at him "What do you think?" I asked.

"Let me think, well I don't know you but you had came here as my angel, So yeah I will call you angel" he smiled, my smile grew brighter "I would love to be called that" I said and started taking backwards steps.

"hey wait" he called out but I just turned when I felt a tug on my hands "would we meet again?" he asked, a fear was visible in his voice "Yeah, if destiny wants then we will surely meet" I said as I turned.

"Take care" I said as I squeezed his hand and with that I turned and walked away as I know if destiny really wants then I will be meeting him.

Shivaay stood there smiling looking at her retreating figure.

"We willl meet soon angel"
