In a dark room with only the moonlight coming through,sat a man with a photo in his hands.His eyes had a faraway glance to them...a small smile playing his lips...
"Kya Angad,what are you doing here?"straight hair,warm eyes,stern yet open face...Nishant came in looking exasperated at Angad."Again?"he took the picture frame from Angad's hands and looked down at the picture of Kripa."You always have this picture with you.i hate to imagine what you would do if you could actually see her."
"Always right to the point arent you?"Angad grinned."arent you supposed to make me feel better about all this or something?"
"Sorry Angad,"Nishant replied dryly,"I cant sympathize with someone who drowns in his own self pity every day since the last 2 years...and for what?a girl..."he shook his head.
Angad laughed."Someones in a bad mood...what did Kannan do now?"
Nishant looked at Angad wondering if he was that ovious."Well I went to pick her up from that college fair she went to.We were stuck in traffic for about an hour and it occured to her that it was the perfect time to give me a lecture about how i supposably act like a miserable 40 year old.
Angad laughed but changed it to a cough."She said that did she?"
"Hmm,she saifd I need to act my 23 year old age and have fun for a change and-"
"I agree,muttered Angad.Nishant turned to Angad frusterated."Matlab?I think I enjoy life enough and I certainly know how to have fun."
"No comments.I rest my case,"Anagd sighed."Dont be mad at Kannan ok?She loves you."
"So does she,"Nishant sat down and took Kripa's picture from Angad's hands again."Shes very pretty.She loks too innocent and good for you."
Angad smiled sadly."1st of all-correction-she used to love me...i think...and ya she is too innocent and good for me."
"From what you've told me shes very different from you.Sounds like me and Kannan.How'd you guys-"
"Get togeteher?"Anagd laughed."You know people used to spend 2 minutes with us and that would be the first question out of their mouths..."
"well I have another question."Nishant turned serious now."I've asked you this for a long time...you never told me...Angad we got to be friends through our families but arent we friends enough for you to tell me what happened?I mean,"Nishant stopped trying to find a way to ask without sounding too insensitive."think how wierd it is for me...I come back to Mumbai after so many years and I find you...cant see because of some accident,then when I go to see you,you tell me you want to leave everything and go to USA with me.You left your girlfriend and family,you are totally different...and you wont tell me the whole story."
Angad stood up with his blind walking stick and found his way to the other side of the room."well i met kripa when 7 years ago.She was 15 and I was 16...just a bunch of kids...we always used to fight alot."he smiled at the memory."She thought I was concieted and irresponsible and I thought she was just Ms.Goody Two Shoes.later when i found out she was Suryaban Sharma's daughter I was so surprised that she was so down to earth.I was interested but you know me...my ego got in the way and we just kept fighting...I saw alot of her though as she was Aliyah's best friend and our families were friends also.We bacame friends though later....strange ones since we could never really agree on anything but friends...then later...I just fell for her.We went out for 3 months before Josh-Aliyah's engagement party.There I remember getting drunk although we only had 1 glass...i insisted for a drive and then..."Angad remebered Josh's words...I trust you with my life...so whats the biggy about a drive" I let him down...Josh trusted me and I let him down...
Someone knocked on the door at that time.Without waiting for an answer a girl came in.She loked to be about 23.tall,slim,layered brown hair,light makeup and dressed in jeans and a t-shirt.Pointedly ignoring Nishant she went over and gave Angad a hug.
"Kannan,how are you?"Anagd returned the hug smiling."How was the fair?Hope it was worth it.Without you here a week its been very boring.
"Im sure it was,"Kannan guided Angad to the couches and sat down,still ignoring Nishant,who didnt seem to like the lack of attention from his girlfriend.
lol.I dont know if i described the characters so well.Nishant isnt a bad friend,or insensitive.Hes just evry open and forward.He doesnt like Angads self pitying.And I tried not to change the characters very much so imagine Nishant in the begginning.Always busy with work and no fun.lol.And him and Kannan love each other but they are still at that hate/love/how do i understand u phase😆hoped u all like.
