Aditi's point of view

It's been already two days since Dhruv left to his official trip. It's been two days, I saw him last and these two days seems two years to me. I got used to see him everyday but now he is away from me I missed him a lot in these two days and I don't know how would I spend next 12 days without seeing him. I did not receive any letter from his side. I know it's two early to expect any letter from him as he left just two days before but from past two days I waited someone to give me his letter.

The goodbye war really hurting. Though it was temporary but we both have tears in our eyes and when I finally say goodbye to him I cried the whole night. My family still not return from their trip and I don't know where they are and when they would come. The wheat flour they left me was finished a week ago and I don't know how would I survive without food if Dhruv was not there for me. It reminds me how much he cares for me. Our relationship progressed.

Whenever he touched me or kiss me for weird reason his touch don't bring bad memories, infect I feel love and care through his touches. I stunned when he started kissing me on lips, I could not stop him instead I reciprocate his kiss and when I realised it was already late. After that I don't want to stop him. I enjoyed his kisses as much as he enjoyed.

I don't know what is going inside his head. He did not give a name to our relationship though he cleared that we are not just friends. He said we share a special bond but he did not express his feelings towards me. This time, I am not going to express my feelings to him, this he has to take step further if he has something for me in his heart.

I have nothing to loose, I already lost my everything, which no one know. I just have my love for Dhruv and some beautiful moments with him which we created recently. No matter how dark my past was, no matter how my life change in past few years but one thing remains same...

My love for Dhruv, which never going to change till my soul left my body.

I don't know if Dhruv ever going to love or not, my love is enough for both of us but one thing hurt me always these beautiful moments going to end soon. He will leave me eventually like others and I left alone once again. I don't want to think about it to much because I don't know when will I get this much happiness again in my life. I am not asking to much, I just want few more wonderful moments with him to cherish all my life when we will apart and he would move on in his life.

The college siren bring me out from my thoughts and I looked down to my books, which are opened in front of me and I did not turn the page from past thirty minutes lost in my handsome neighbour's thoughts. I have my exams start from tomorrow and they will continue to two weeks. Shasrtri ji told me that there is not much left in my internship and I could continue it after my exams if I want to. For now he asked me to focus on studies.

I picked my books in my hand and leave the library after reissuing them. My mood was already fall as I was missing Dhruv so much it was like he took some part of me with him and it's really getting hard to breathe without seeing him. When I left the library, I was so lost in my thoughts that I bumped into someone and my books fall from my hands. I bent down and started picking my books.

"I am sorry, I didn't see you." The girl apologised and helped me to pick my books.

"It's okay." It wasn't her fault entirely I was also lost in my thoughts.

I picked my books and stood up same as the girl but when I saw the with whom I just bumped I could not believe my eyes. I am seeing her after eight years.

"Hey, I know you..." She had a brought smile on her face when she recognised me.

"Aditi right..?"

I nodded my head in positive, clearing her doubt. When I clear her doubt a huge grin appear on her face.

"You don't remember me? I am Priya."

Of course how could I forget her she is as beautiful as she was eight years back. Long hair, fair skin, red cheeks and her beautiful die eyes which are die for when you looked the innocence in them. She was the only girl who was close to Dhruv and the only girl I always feel insecure because any man could fell for her easily they way she is.

Just gorgeous...

I smiled when I realised I put her waiting for my answer longer than usual.

"I remember you." I said. Though it was really surprising that she still remember me. Other than Dhruv she was the only person who had smile on her face after meeting me. We were never closed to each other, we hardly talked, we both know each other through Dhruv but I know one thing she is a nice girl.

"How are you? You study here?" She asked me, looking at the books in my hands.

"Yes.." I nodded my head and looked down in embarrassment, hoping that she could not asked me the question if I failed in any year like Divya because I don't want to explain to anyone why I am behind the students of my age.

"Oh! That's great. Actually I came her to pick my aunt. She is a lecturer here. You may know her. Her name is Neelam Singh?" She asked.

"Yes, I know her. She is my English literature lecturer." I answered. Neelam ma'am is really a nice woman. I never talk to her personally but she always solve students problem in the subject.

"Priya I am here.." We both turn to the voice. Nilam ma'am was calling for Priya.

"I have to go now. It was really nice talking to you." She said with a genuine smile.

"Same here." I replied her gesture. After that she bid a goodbye to me and then leave with Nilam ma'am.

She and Dhruv used to be so close friends in childhood and I remember how I my heart get upset to see them together because I could not be with Dhruv and talk to him whenever I want like her. I still remember the day when I saw Dhruv and her hugging each other. It was like, my heart broke for the first time seeing someone in Dhruv's arms other than me.

When I was walking towards the exit gate of the college my eyes fell on Karan who was standing in the parking lot with his gang and constantly looking at me with his clenched jaw and fist. He didn't bother me after the episode in the canteen. I wonder why? Because he is not one of them to give up easily. He made the sole purpose to bully me in my whole college life. He is the only one here in college who knew about my past and what happened to me. He is a close friend to Rahul and if once he rat about me to Rahul, he is gonna do worst to me. This is why I stopped Dhruv to do anything against him because I don't want to put his life in danger as Rahul already destroyed my life and I don't want him to do anything wring with Dhruv. I am aware of his power and what he is capable of, especially when he become the strong politician now.

Dangerous and wicked...

Lost in my thoughts, I don't remember when I reached the main gate of our college and there I saw a car parked with one of Dhruv's man stood near the car. I approached him slowly, thinking that he might waiting for me because this is the first time in two days I saw one of Dhruv's man who is the member of his convoy. Raghav is the one who took me to restaurant for food and give me my medicines because Dhruv instructed me strictly which he followed nicely. Raghav still not here must be stuck up in his duty but I thought to wait for him till he come.

"Ma'am, Dhruv sir give this for you." He forward the white envelope towards me and my lips automatically curled into a wide smile when I read the name on the envelope.

To my beautiful neighbour, Aditi..

He was a man of his words. He wrote me a letter. I could not wait to read it. I want to know how he is doing and if he was also thinking about me like I do.

"Sir, asked me to bring your answer with me so I could post it today only." I looked up when the man asked me firmly.

"I'll give it to you tomorrow at this time." I said firmly. The man nodded his head and leave from there in the car. I could help smiling like it made a permanent place there. I want yo give it a kiss but I couldn't as I have people around me.

"What is it?" I looked up when someone snatched the letter from my hand.

"From Dhruv Malhotra.." Raghav was grinning holding the letter when he reads the sender name loudly.

"Raghav give that to me. It was mine." I said while jumping trying to snatch back the letter from his while he was holding it up from my reach.

"At least let me see what my friend wants to say to you. What if he was missing me?" Raghav teased while looking down at me.

"He would have called you if miss you. Now give my letter back." I jumper tried to snatch the letter from him but he is longer than me.

"Now days he only called me when he has any work." Raghav teased while looking down at me.

"Then talk to him. It's your Problem." I jumped to catch the letter but again he too benefits of his height.

"Remind me when he return now let me see what he writes....To my beautiful neighbour Adi.....Ouch woman....." Raghav shouted when I kicked on his feet and taking the opportunity I snatched the letter from his hand and keep it between my book.

"You know, you can go to jail for kicking a police. IPS specifically." He said while rubbing the area where I just kicked him.

"Poor you. A sister can kick his brother's ass be happy that I just kicked on your foot." I said with a smirk and he frowned.

"You gotta a point." He rubbed his feet dramatically.

Did I really kick him that hard?

"Now come..." He put his arm around my shoulders and pulled my head to his chest like I am his little brother. Sometimes he forgets that I am a girl.

I sit behind his bike and hold his shoulders. I shake my head when he winked looking towards a girl who was checking him out for long time.

Raghav is truly my brother in every sense. Sometimes I wonder why we both didn't take birth in same house.

Raghav took me to his house where his mother welcomed me whole heartedly. I usually don't in a rush but today I want go home soon because I want to know what Dhruv write for me. But Raghav knew this, he deliberately wasting time and tease me. After dinner, I literally have to drag out from his own house to drop me to mine.

As soon as I reached my house I locked all the doors and went to living room to read the letter. I tore the envelope and took out letter from it. I put the envelope aside and open the letter, slowly with my heart beating rapidly. This is the second time Dhruv wrote something for me.

As I was about to read the letter, light went off and darkness fell around place. Inverter also stopped working a week ago. I stood up and bring the lit candle from the kitchen and carefully put it on the table. I bring the letter near the candle and started reading it.

Dear Aditi...

First line of his letter bring tears in my eyes. I sniffled and read it again.

Dear Aditi..

I hope you are doing well and missing me as much as I am missing you.

I chuckled through my tears and nodded my head as yes. I wiped my tears and continue.

Though I am sure you are not missing me as much I am missing you because there is not a single moment passed I don't think about you. You are everywhere.

This official trip is boring as I expected. I wish you are here with me. I would take you for the sight seeing and you could enjoy the cold here with me in my arms. I don't know how these days would pass because in first hour of my trip I came to know that this is going to be difficult for me without you. There are people around me but I feel alone all the time.

Aditi I wish I could turn the clock back and I might never have to leave you, not now, not eight years back. Neither you don't have to go through so much pain nor I have to suffer. We have suffered a lot and I want to put full stop on our sufferings.

There is something I want to tell you. It always in my heart but never on my lips. Maybe I don't have a enough courage. One day I will surely confess you when I feel I am ready to tell you.

I don't know what future hold for us but remember that you have special place in my heart and you are the only light in my darkness. Give me your pain Aditi. I am ready to give you the whole world my darling.
     
                                                    Dhruv...

By the time I finished the letter, tears bring into my eyes and my vision get blur. I kissed the letter while closing my eyes and finally my tears streamed out from my eyes. I don't know what Dhruv wants to say through this letter but his words give only warmth to my heart. I wiped my tears and took a notebook and pen to write a letter for him. I promised him I will answer his letter.

Dear Dhruv....

I ho...

As I was about to write, my pen stopped working and that was the last pen I have. I hurriedly ran to kitchen, make a turmeric paste and then I took a tooth pick and started writing letter with the help of them.
