Days to remember Part 7
A following week was very hectic for Nupur, Sanam and Hinna. The trio cleaned the guest room, so that it can turn into Nupur's room. Then Nupur's had to go university in order to get enrolled. It wasn't as bad as Nupur thought. It was quite simple with some form filings. But what happens after enrolment was something that she never thought of happening.
Nupur was coming out of the university and was walking towards the car, where Sanam was waiting for her. Hinna was at home, preparing her assignment that was due to the very next day. She hated staying at home and working on assignment. She found it eternally boring but left with no choice.
While walking she suddenly felt herself dragging away somewhere and before she knew where she was, she was backed up against a wall. Her eyes were close tightly and fear was all around her face. Even with her eyes shut, she knew who it was. She could just feel his touch on her hand. The touch, that she can never possibly forget. That touch sent shiver run down her spine. Her heart beat was beating faster each second. She wanted to open her eyes to see his face, but decided not to. She would melt in as soon she'll look in to those dark brown eyes and she did not want to give up so easily.
Meanwhile, the man, who was standing in front of Nupur, was staring at her innocent beauty. She looked gorgeous even with scared expressions. Actually it made her look even more pretty, thought the man.
"Mayank leave me!" Nupur screamed on top of her lung after keeping her fear aside.
Mayank was shocked to hear his name. He thought Nupur didn't recognise him but little did he know that his touch was more than enough for Nupur to guess. He felt happy that he still had that affect on her, and she did not completely forget him. She still loved him. She could recognise him, even with closed eyes. He smiled widely.
Mayank loosen his grip from her hands and soon he let it go completely. Nupur felt her hands loosing up a bit, so she slowly opened her eyes to see her wildest dream coming alive. She was lost in his eyes. It had so much innocence and so much of affection in them. She was about to hug him when her mind stopped her from doing so. She was craving to hide herself in his arms. She knew that he loved her because she could tell. Anyone could tell but she just did not want to believe it. She did not want to hurt herself once again. It took her more than enough time to get over his betrayal. In short, she was having mind and heart won, and as always her mind won.
Mayank looked embarrassed, but his eyes had nothing but love and just love. He wanted to grab her in his arms and tell her how much he loves her but he couldn't. Nupur wouldn't approve of it, he thought.
Nupur was about to leave when Mayank held her for her wrist and straight into his arms. He could not hold it anymore. He just wanted to hug her, and that's all he knew. He hugged her passionately to show that he is always there for her. That he loved more than anything. He loved her and only her. The only girl in his life after his mother.
Nupur was completely taken aback by this sudden action. She took few good seconds before realising that Mayank was actually hugging her and she was in his arms. The place where she always wanted to stay. For the first few seconds after realising, she did not respond to the hug though she was dying to do so. She was cursing her mind from stopping her to do so. But she kicked her thought out of her mind and responded to the hug with a more of urgency than a passion.
Mayank felt himself over the moon by her touch. Her touch was sensational. It could make any man go weak on his knees. He tightened his grip, bringing Nupur even more closely if it was possible. He just wanted this moment to never end but every moment has to end at some point, so did this moment.
Suddenly he felt a part of shirt wet near his chest. Just then, he realised that it was Nupur crying and shedding her priceless tears. His heart ached and yet again he blamed himself for it. It was because of him, Nupur had tears in her eyes.
Nupur was crying, clutching Mayank's shirt tightly. She wanted to pour he heart out to him. She didn't want to keep anything in her heart.
Mayank broke the hug, and cupped Nupur's face between his hands. Nupur slowly let go of her clutch and looked up with red teary eyes. Mayank looked straight into her eyes and Nupur did the same. But like it says everything has a right timing and the same applied to Mayank and Nupur. It was not a right time for them to be together.
Nupur looked into his eyes and suddenly remembered the betrayal that he gave her. All of a sudden, all the past memories flashed in her mind and she removed her hand from his chest. The tears that were stopped a while ago, made their way out once again. Mayank was hurt by her actions but not surprised. He knew that he wouldn't get forgiveness so easily. He made a massive mistake, sorry correction, massive sin by hurting her pure heart.
Nupur moved away from him and turned around. Before Mayank could stop her, she was out of the room and soon disappeared in the thin air.
2 days later:
Nupur was sitting in the front room, killing her time on laptop, trying to research some stuff for assignment. As it was Sunday, the trio decided to stay at home and get rid of the tiredness. Hinna was in the kitchen, trying new recipe while Sanam was giving her a hand. Nupur offered them help but the duo said they would manage.
While opening one of her document from the laptop, her gaze fixed on a particular folder. She wanted to open it, but stopped herself from doing so. She knew she will shed tears at the end, so it's better not to open it. She removed her gaze from there but corner of her eye was still staring at the folder. Finally after few seconds, she decided to open it. She double clicked on the folder and opened it. It was a picture folder. She mentally prepared herself before clicking on one of the picture. She didn't want to break down at all, at least not after her great effort to get over things.
She clicked it. And the picture brought many wonderful memories with it. She felt a tear on her cheek. It was Mayank and hers photo. She simply stared at the picture. Nupur was wearing red knee length dress with a little diamond earrings and Mayank was wearing a black formal shirt. Nupur ran her finger on the screen, just to feel her touch on his face. It was insane, but for Nupur it was a great feeling. She said it out loud to everyone that she hates Mayank, but she never meant it. She could not hate Mayank. She loved him too much to hate.
Her chain of thoughts was broken by the door bell ring. She was brought back to the reality. She cursed the person on the door, from bringing her back to reality. Reality was horrible, according to Nupur. She just wanted to stay in past. In those beautiful moments that she shared with Mayank.
Unwillingly, she kept her laptop a side and got up from the sofa. She walked towards the door with annoyed expressions on her face. She reached for the handle and pulled the door inside to find someone much unexpected. Her expressions changed within matter of seconds. She looked surprised, stunned, shocked, happy, excited, all the emotions at once. She could not take her eyes off him. He was looking absolute stunning in blue cute t shirt with similar track pant.
It wasn't something fancy he was wearing but to Nupur he looked dashing as ever. And his smile was giving Nupur a hard time controlling herself. She heart skipped a beat, when she saw those adorable dimples of his. However, she controlled herself and put on a fake annoying expressions back on her face.
Mayank looked lost in Nupur. She was wearing white plain t shirt and black 3 quarter trouser. His gaze stopped on the text that the t shirt had on it. Stop! I am alergic to stupic people!, Mayank read with a smile. She looked adorable.
Her sudden change of expressions made Mayank's smile go wider and wider.
"What are you doing here?" Nupur asked him, as he gave his one of the best smile to her.
"Hello. Don't be in illusion. I am here to meet Sanam." Mayank replied with a big grin on his face.
Nupur was complete taken back at his reply. Nupur expected to him to say that he was here to meet her and apologised but what she heard was complete shock. She looked surprised and angry, both at a time. She wanted to punch Mayank, right that second.
But the only thing she didn't felt was jealousy. Not even a for a second, she felt herself being jelous from her friend. She could never feel that way. She knew that neither Sanam nor Hinna can ditch her. She trusted them more than her own kin.
"Hey Nupur. What a pleasant surprise?" A voice brought Nupur back to earth. She followed her stare towards the voice direction, only to find Sonal standing there with a flower bouquet in her hand. Nupur found a smile playing on her lips. Sonal walked forward and gave a warm hug to Nupur. Mayank was standing there, observing the 2 beautiful ladies.
Nupur responded to the hug with equal warmth and affection. Nupur got to know Sonal through Mayank, when she went to Mayank's house for the first time. They became good friends in the very first meeting. They both often met at college, but even since Mayank and Nupur's break up, Sonal lost her communication with Nupur.
"So how are you? Long time?" Sonal asked Nupur with a warm smile. Nupur looked thoughtful for a minute and then replied.
"Long time, I know. I have been good. You?" She replied.
"Same here." Sonal replied, seeing the pain that just reflected in Nupur's eyes.
"Come on in guys." Nupur led the 2 inside the flat. Mayank and Sonal followed Nupur inside and made themselves comfortable on the sofa.
The flat was big enough for 3 people to live. It had a big living room and a kitchen with 3 bedrooms. But Mayank had no interest observing the flat. He just sat down near Nupur's laptop. Nupur looked terrified at the view front of her eyes. She was looking at Mayank and her picture and forgot to shut the laptop. Shit! He is going to see the picture. Shit! No please, god no. She muttered under breath.
Mayank noticed her expressions and followed her gaze with his. Nupur was gazing at the laptop so curiously. Mayank was stunned and happy seeing the view. And Nupur cursed herself badly.
The picture in front of sight was more than enough to prove that Nupur still loved him. She still missed him. She did, She did, She did Mayank chanted the mantra in his heart with a broad smile on his face.
Nupur noticed the smile on his face and yet another time, she crused herself for being so careless.
Nupur how can you be so careless?
Did I know he was coming?
well you should then.
How the heck am I supposed to know that?
She started fighting within herself but soon stopped at she realised that Sonal was staring at her.
"So what bring Miss Busy here?" Nupur taunted Sonal with a grin, while taking a seat opposite her and Mayank. She completely ignored Mayank and focued on Sonal.
"Stop taunting will you?" Sonal playfully said, while giving out a small smile.
"No seriously, how come you here? I mean you didn't know I lived here, did you?" Nupur said with serious expression on her while sighing.
"Oh seems like Sanam hasn't told you anything. Actually Sanam invited me over dinner." Sonal explained Nupur while Mayank was busy staring at the picture on the laptop screen and smiling to himself. Ye pagal ho gaya hai! Nupur thought to herself when her eyes stopped on him.
By this time, Sanam and Hinna was out and were walking towards the living room. Sanam looked furios seeing Mayank and was about to say something, when Hinna caught her hand and gestured her to stop. Sanam controlled herself and walked toward Sonal.
They both exchanged friendly hug, and gave dark evils to Mayank. Mayank left stunned. He felt embarrassed, so he looked down the very instant.
"So you know each other?" Nupur asked in a disbelief.
"Of course we do. We are best friend since high school. But then Dad had to move down Blackburn, so we lost contact. I saw her in supermarket today, so invited her over dinner." Sanam finished her speech.
After a while, when everyone was busy talking including Mayank, who was having good time with Hinna. Sanam, Nupur and Sonal were busy talking about their daily soaps, Eastenders and Hollyoaks. Suddenly, the phone started ringing. All stooped talking and looked toward the phone. As Nupur was sitting closely to the phone, she got up and went to pick the phone up.
The rest of them went back talking except Mayank. She was staring at her, as he felt something wrong. He even noticed Nupur a while ago, she looked worried as she was regetting someone's call on her mobile. He observed her pale face. She was repeatedly avoiding someone.
"Hello!" Nupur's voice brought Mayank back to reality. Mayank stared at her curiously and was noticing her expressions and postures.
"Nupur! It's me Sheena."
