Chapter 26:
From the day,devakshi returned from thrir homes,dev could feel that Sonakshi was restless.He knew what was the matter.But he kept quiet.He wanted Sonakshi to give space.He know Sonakshi is matured enough to solve her own problems.But he wanted her to share the most important thing to him by herself which she had been hiding since long.He know she would not hide from him for so long.So,he waited for the right time.
One day,after ating dinner,dev and sonakshi were having their usual talks.
Dev:Sona,don't you feel we have come a way long than where we had started?
Sona:Yeah dev.I sometimes feel it.I still could not forget our first phone call.How we used to be vey free and expressive sharing our thoughts.
Dev:yeah.on the first day itself,you shared with me the vey important things about you.I was just a stranger for you then,but you trusted me and told everything.I feel only because of that we are here sitting freely talking.
Sona:Yeah may be.but I feel because of your nature,we are here.Just think.if you hadn't accepted my decision,we would not have been together.Its only because you understood me,im here.
Dev:Sona,you are embarrassing me.Why are we praising each other now.
Sona:Because now we have nothing to talk.We are in that phase,where we could easily read each others mind.We don't need the other one to open their mouth and say what they want.We can easily feel it.
Dev:So you are saying that we can sense whats wrong with the other person?
Sona.yes.it is.See,now we know each other in and out.We know every minute details about each other.And if we are still unable to feel our problem,the the only thing is that we are hiding something.Until and unless we share it the other we will not be able to solve it.
Dev:So you feel we are not hiding anything,and that's why we can understand each other.
Sona:Yes dev.now whats wrong?Why are you asking me so many questions?
Dev:Nothing Sonakshi,I was just asking.
Sona:Dev,actually I wanted to say you one thing.i had been trying to say this from very long.Nobody ever knows it.not even my parents.but..
Dev:Sona,tell me.
Sona:I know I should have you this before itself.I just cant hide it from you anymore.but I don't know how would I say it.
Dev:Sona,relax.You know I wont say anything.I can understand if you had hid it from me,then definitely there would be a reason.Ill wait for it.You just take your time and then tell me.
Sona:Thank you dev.but I cant say it now.I know its very silly reason.But I had started doing it since childhood.But I didn't tell it to anyone and it had become a habit that I cant even leave it.At those times,I feared that someone would mock me at this .so I didn't tell it.And the fear and complexity grew with me.Though I have become strong enough,that thought never left me.I know its very silly but I just cant say it.
Dev:are you afraid of fame?
Soan:I don't know may be.
Dev:if that's the problem,the you could use another name,and exhibit it.No one will ever know.
Sona:Well.thats a very good solution.
Dev:See,I told you.And what name would you prefer?
Sona:May be a name which only my closest friends knew.
Dev:Sona,now tell me soon.
Sona: yeah ill tell you soon.I know you are not the one would mock me.You will definitely support me .its just that I need time.
Dev:Ok take your time.ill be waiting.now go and sleep.Its too late.
Then Sonakshi left.She now had a contended sleep.
Dev's pov:
I know Sona,what you wanted to say and whatever I guessed was right.You still have that complexity that you fear of fame.But don't worry sona,ill make everything right.Tomorrow you gonna see a drastic change in your life.I have something special for you.after this,you will overcome your complexity.
The next day,everyone were at office.Suddenly Priya came and shared something.
Priya:Guys you know what,somebody had posted a story online and its getting viral?
Dipika:What I don't understand.How can a story get viral,that too which was just posted now.
Priya:Arey,it had been posted this morning in all the social mediaand since the story line is very gripping many have started following it and its trending guys.I am also gonna read it and im sure whoever has written it will be very happy now.
Sonakshi:So,whats it all about?
Priya:I don't know I just know the overview.its like a daily diary which a girl is writing about her life.its full of sorrows,worries,hardwork ,passion and love.how she is overcoming it and how her family and her lover is supporting her.
Dipika:Wow,that's awesome yaar.
Sonakshi sensed something wrong.How could this come online.This is what she had been fearing of.She had writing this for so long but how did it leaked.
Sonakshi:Who is the author?
Priya:You will be shocked hearing it.actually no information about it has been revealed yet.and the name is D-E-V-A-K-S-H-I.
Sonakshi:What?
Sonakshi knew its truly her story.This was written by her and the authors name proved it.She needed to talk to dev.She excused herself and searched him.Dev was talking to someone.
Dev:Thank you so much yaar.It really means a lot to me.im very happy now.You don't know how im feeling right now.But please don't tell this to anyone.Her name should not be revealed.You know what I mean.She is afraid of fame and I want her talent to be exposed .She deserves it and I will support her.Im sure she will understand soon.
Sonakshi was hearing it and went immediately and hugged him tight.She was continuously sobbing.He tried to calm her down because he hadn't seen this side of hers.She has to be happy now and she is crying.
Sonakshi:Dev,you did all this na.Iam sorry I had to tell you this before but I couldn't.But you posted it.
Dev:Sona,I saw that box that day when I came to your room.I was so amazed at your writing skills.You have been hiding your talent for so long and I wanted to expose it.You are truly deserving it.Everyone needs to know it.But since you were afraid of letting others know you ,I thought of changing your penname.thats it.Dont worry.Nothing will go wrong.
Sonakshi:Why are you so supportive?
Dev:Because you deserve it sona.You are my life and I can do anything for you.
Sonakshi:Dev,I love you.
Dev:I love you too.
