"phew" they let out a big sigh. Sharon took his hand again, and lead him to another corner, where the two boxes lay, she asked him to open the red one first. He opened it and what greeted him bought many memories with it, from pain to pleasure every memory. The box held every one of his gifts to her, it had a dried orchid, the tango dress, the cover of the dance shoes box, the bracelet, an inhaler, a piece of mirror to which had blood stains, and so on, a bit of everyday. When asked about the mirror, what memory it held for her...she replied, "Shivam's party...i was overcome with guilt, and frustration as to why I couldn't get over you, why you mattered so much, and I broke everything in my room, smashed my mirror and vase, and I hurt myself hoping that pain would overcome the pain here" she said pointing to her heart. Swayam looked at her in awe, sharon raiprakash was affected so much because of him? "I'm sorry I hurt you sharon" he said "No sorry no thank you, remember? She smiled. "oh..um yeah...sorr..." he struggled not to say sorry. He pulled out a pink shawl, "Nicole ma'm's wedding..." he trailed off..."The starting of realisation...of everything. My shawl got to touch your hair though i didn't" she said. "Abhi ke liye...enough of this, time for the next box." she said and told him to open the white box. He oppened it and the first thing that caught his eye was a red paper partly burnt, he looked at her questioningly "you set fire to my prized possessions, remember?" she asked. He remembered of course he did, it was in the locker room...and he'd set fire to it, out of spite. He grinned sheepishly. She smiled, "I couldn't let go of it that easily" she said. Beneath that was a huge number of letters and pictures. Every letter contained something about him, it was all addressed to him. The beginning few were harsh but slowly their tone changed. From egoistic to admiration to like to pain to love. He understood what was in the letters. Her feelings, for him, everyday what she'd wanted to but had not told him. The initial few weren't addressed to hi., they were more of diary pages, but later on after the secret admirer incident the letters were to him, full of questions...one frequently asked was "How can you love me so much Swayam?". Then came the letters full of hatred for herself for deceiving him, for losing him, they had blood spots at some points, he touched them and let his tears fall on it. He smiled, as he saw the more recent ones, after foot loose, they were longer and filled with self doubt, and fright. Fright she wouldn't be able to love him as much. Then came the letters written when she was away...it was filled with love, love and love. And a bit of regret, coz of asthma. Later he came to the revelation letters, where he could see the spots where her tears had dried. Finally he saw the last one dated the previous day, filled with happiness love and dreams of their future. He then saw the pictures, it was him mostly, laughing and setting his hair. Behind it were comments which said "you look so cute"; "aaj bohot khush lag rahe ho?" and stuff. He let out a tiny laugh and looked at her, she had yet again slipped off,he turned around and saw her waiting for a dance, she played the music and they swayed to it, in perfect sync. Together they danced for hours or days they didn't know, all they knew was they were together.
A little while later the gang came to see where were the love birds...only to see them in each other's arms, tired but content with a gentle smile on their faces. Happily lost in their dreams of each other as one forever.I know that was a small update, but it was the completion part of the ss...i'll continue itif y'all want...idm...but nxt chptr nxt week...if you guys want...and how will I know that?
