Abeer had spent the entire night drowned in Leher's thoughts,reminiscing all the happy moments they had shared in the past few days...
Smiling with each thought as it crossed his mind ,he began to think deeper into it...what was it that he felt for her ?.....
A raw new feeling had started to grow in him...though he had mistaken it to be attraction but later began to feel that it was much more ...
The emotion called love was still unknown to him and he was yet to realize that he was already struck by it...
He sat in his room with eyes swollen due to lack of sleep and the involuntary tears that he had shed last night when Leher had returned his gift and had broken his heart by breaking their friendship...
He wanted her to know how he feels and wished to support her through the tough times ...but with Leher wanting no more of their friendship ,he felt helpless and forlorn of all hope ....
One moment he was frustrated of being snubbed and the next he was intrigued by his own feelings for her ....It hurt him to see her refuse his friendship over an incident he wasn't a part of ... and what bothered him the most was his own state after the rejection....
Why did she matter to him so much ? what was it that he felt for her ? he had no answers at all and the feeling he simply couldn't comprehend ...

Holi was a pompous affair at Ganeshgunj...Everyone from the neighbourhood except the Vajpayees had got together to celebrate the festival ,the reason for their absence being their recent dispute with the Mathurs...
Leher smiled to see her family together again ,it did seem like a skillful task to bridge the gap that her uncle Kul had caused with his outburst yesterday ,but Brij had mended all broken bonds with his love ...
Leher loved her dad for the simple person he was and equally respected him for his mature and sensible upbringing ....She would never do anything to hurt his feelings or put his values at stake...
She couldn't bear to see her dad hurt ,be it physically or emotionally and any relationship with Abeer could only result in that...
She was confused about the strange and disturbing feeling growing inside of her ...and Abeer's frustration had only added to her worries...She wasn't able to get a grip on her haywire emotions and felt weak and vulnerable when she saw the sorrow in Abeer's eyes...
