Chapter 1

Broken Hearts

The blood in his body boiled up in the cool weather of Mumbai.. He sat with a bottle of Vodka on the window sill. How cruel life was, that it brought him on the same path day after day, from which he used to run. Never did he thought that he would see this. Twenty years ago, the same thing had happened. And history was repeating itself all over again. Twenty years ago, the person he loved the most, respected the most, had left him. And now, after twenty years, when he was on the verge of loving someone again with the respect and admiration, had again, betrayed him. As he gulped down the vodka, he remembered how each and every moment spent with her was. In one word, it was a complete bliss. Of course, he hated her at first. But it was she and her attention towards him that had attracted him. How she used to guess what was going on in his mind, how she used to stop him from doing any cruelty towards her best friends, everything had intrigued him. He was enjoying remembering every moment with her when suddenly, the words of her fianc came storming in his mind.

"She's just using you, Arjun Mehra. Just using you. She used me as a stepping stone towards her so called carrier, and now, she is using you."

"No!" Arjun had screamed then.

"You cannot hide the truth by screaming, Arjun. She was engaged to me. We were about to get married when she manipulated her grandfather. Our wedding was called off for six months, just because SHE, wanted to make carrier. We had agreed then. She came here and forgot me. We were childhood friends, Arjun. She stopped picking up my calls. She, she just forgot me. And you know what? I know that you want revenge from that Samaira. I don't know why, but let me tell you one thing, Mr. Arjun Mehra. All this while, she has been protecting that friend of hers because she knows, she knows that Samaira can help her achieve her success. And when her work will be done, she will kick her out too." With that he was about to leave when he suddenly spoke, "By the way, Arjun...you do know that Neil is a GREAT friend of hers? Well, you are smart enough to think of the rest." And with that, he had stormed off.

She never knew that she would have to face this. She had trusted him. He was her friend...then, then why would he do that? Only if Sam was here, this would not have happened. Shattered, she rushed to Arjun's house. She cannot let that happen. She cannot let |Arjun hate her.

There was an eerie silence when she reached his house. The door was open, the lights were off, and he was nowhere to be seen. "Arjun Sir?" she called nervously. "Arjun Si..." "Come inside. And close the door." Arjun called out in a rather shaky voice. She obeyed what was told and went inside only to find a drunk Arjun sitting by the window.

"Sir, I have something to tell you." She spoke seeing the condition of his house. All messy. This was making her thoughts more strong.

"I know, Radhika what do you want to talk about" Arjun replied coldly without even looking at her. "Your fianc told me everything. Each and everything about you."

Radhika knew what Sharad would have told. After what he did to her, she could only expect the worst. Still, she had a hope. Wiping her tears, she asked "You don't believe him. Do you?" "Of course I do." Arjun said blankly. And that hope, was gone too.

"But, sir..."

"Do not say a word. I thought you protected Samaira because you cared for her, because...she was your friend. But, I was wrong. You used her, you used your fianc, and, you used me." He said turning towards her.

"You know, Sir, until now I thought that whatever happened before I came here to you, was the worst thing ever happened to me. But, I was wrong. Whatever you have said now, is equally painful as the pain given by that Sharad. And this pain, I will never ever forget. Goodnight." And with that, Radhika stormed off to her house.

That night, Arjun sat on his Study and started writing in his diary.

Nandu Dida,

I did a big mistake. The biggest mistake of my life. I started loving her, Dida. I...she betrayed me. She left me just the way you left me. You know, she was just like you. At least, that's how she used to portray herself. Caring, selfless, loving...But all was fake. Just fake. But I promise you Dida. I'll not do this mistake again. I'll not let anyone come this close to me ever again. And I'll seek your revenge, Dida. I'll seek your revenge now.

Love,

Arjun.

Radhika went inside her room and closed herself. Glad she was that Samaira was asleep. She remembered whatever happened the whole day. Destiny had it all planned, she thought. Her heart was already broken. Still, she went to him with a hope that he will trust her. Alas! That was not meant to happen. Thinking of all the fateful incident that happened today, Radhika cried her heart out. She cried, the whole night.

She is broken because she believed he will believe her. He is broken because he believed she will never betray her.

Belief , broke their broken hearts.

P.S. in arjun's diary, I wrote Nandu DIDA. I made Nandini her big sister. And I made him call her DIDA rather than didi because even my brother calls me DIDA. So...😆

@tehsina(I hope I got your name correct?) Thank you sooo very much for your comments. I was wondering whether I should continue this or not. But then, I would definitely love to do it now. You know I did wrote one or two FFs in NAUC forum, but never received such comments. I'm really delighted to get such comments. It truly means a lot to me. Thank you.
@priya AROHA means love. It is a word from Maori language of New Zealand. Just as we have Sanskrit as the ancient language of India, Maori too is like Sanskrit. Plus AROHA in Sanskrit means the constant process of gaining knowledge. But in English it means love. So here the title is lost in labyrinth of love which means lost in the maze of love. This story will actually focus upon trust issues as for any relationship, trust should be the main base. I wanted to start the story at a point where both Radhika and Arjun have lost trust on each other even before their love story began. As you have seen in the first chapter, none of them were sure over their feelings for each other. And after the mis understanding, they have lost faith in each other even before they could web their love story.

P.S. I just wanted to say that I'm just 14 and in 10 class. I'm not sure, but there are many people older than me. So, it may be possible that my way of writing may seem a bit childish ( I myself don't know) and i may not be able to portray some emotions that well. If, ever you see any fault, or any loose end in my writing, please familiarise me with it. I would really appreciate that.
