Warning: It's short...
Enjoy!

Numb. That's what she was right now. He had said those words she was dying to hear not less than a month ago. 'I Love You' the words sounded magical coming from his mouth. But she couldn't forget the way he had unknowingly crushed her heart.
"Rey aap yeh kya keh rahe hain." She said as she looked at him with a lot of difficulty.
He looked at her equally shocked. "Aise kyun keh rahi ho Kriya. Mein sach mein tumse Bahut pyaar karta hun. I love you." He said.
"Par aapne to... Aapne to kaha tha ki main aapke liye sirf ek achi dost hun." Kriya said, wishing to just vanish.
"Tab bhi pyaar karta tha... Sirf accept nahi karna chahta tha." Rey said, hopefully.
"Par aap mereliye sirf ek ache dost ho." She said and started to struggle to get out from his arms. He wanted to hold her close and crush her into him. He clutched her sides and said. "I know ki tum bhi mujhe pyaar karti ho. Don't do this Kriya. I love you." Kriya kept struggling under his grip but he did not let her go.
"Rey, you're hurting me." As soon as she said that. Rey's grip loosened.
Finally Kriya took the opportunity and passed him but Rey held her wrist. "Rey, mera haath chodiye." She pleaded as tears formed in her eyes.
He pulled her towards herself and clutched her waist and her palms clenched his shoulders. "I love you." He said as he placed his forehead on hers and one single tear escaped her eyes. She pushed himself off him and started stepping backwards. "I'm sorry I don't love..." She wanted to complete it but she couldn't, and ran out of the rehearsal hall.
Rey collapsed on the ground on his knees. He was so happy that he had said her what was in his heart but why did she reject him. Moreover deny her own feelings. She did it again. What she did two years ago. She broke his heart ruthlessly. But the last time it wasn't in her hands but what happened this time. He couldn't believe it. It was clear in her eyes that she loved him. Like every time her breath got uneven when I went close to her. This was not possible. What was holding her back.
She said that they were Just Good Friends. But he knew it wasn't true it was clearly evident in her eyes. Tears started to flow out of his eyes as he remembered her words. They had to come out. He couldn't stop them. He looked up at the ceiling and remembered her universeji and asked him "Why do you always that with us. Why did she again do that with me? Why every time we suffer? I know she loves me. Ten why do you always part us? Don't you like us together? Can't we be happy like all those other couples?" He screamed, knowing this stream of tears will not stop anytime soon.
He sat there looking at his crying, defeated and helpless image in the mirror of the rehearsal hall.

Kriya ran away and locked herself in one of the classrooms. She was so happy that he finally said those words to her. Why did she not say those words back to him? She did not have the answer too. She was cursing herself for whatever she told him. She wanted to go back, hug him tight and confess her love. But she couldn't, she did not have the courage.
She hit her hands on the wall of the room continuously, it hurt her but she did not stop. She deserved it. She hurt him so much that this was nothing when compared. She felt a red liquid flow from her knuckles and she could see the stains of blood on the wall but she didn't stop. And slid down the door. What had gotten into her that she said no to him? Didn't she want to say him the same words but today when he said those words why did she reject him? The tears flowed continuously from her eyes. She couldn't stop them, she did not want to stop them. She hadn't cried this much even when she left Rey two years back. She wanted to accept him tell him the words, then what happened!?
She just wanted to cry, she was the one who was responsible for this, every time he had a broken heart, she was responsible, she was responsible for a broken Rey.
I don't deserve him. I can only hurt him. I cannot give him the happiness he deserves. I am not worth him. He deserves someone better than me. She kept telling herself. She wanted to cry and just cry harder at her fate, for loosing him again.
