"He's annoying, he's hilarious, he's the world's biggest jerk, he makes me want to scream, he ruins my day and saves it at the last minute, he drives me crazy, he's out of his mind, I hate his guts, yet he's everything i want."
He read those versus for the umpteenth number of time and smiled to himself.That was a status she had written when they were together.He still remembered how that status had made his heart do the somersaults.He was literally behaving like a love struck teenager.Only if he could understand the meaning of those somersaults?But, that was all long gone now. He browsed through the texts in his mobile and opened one of the text. Her last text she sent to him.That was the last he heard from her.
"We met, we talked, we liked, we called, we texted, we dated, we committed, I loved, you cheated, we're done, you're deleted,Adios ."
Adios? How easily could she say that?But it was so obvious.What more could he expect?It wasn't like one of those hindi movies where the heroine heard half of the conversation,jumped into conclusions and so on.In his case, she caught him red handed sleeping with the girl next door.And BOOM!she left...forever. He didn't care back then. He had always been like this,the player,then why would he care? it was after she left he realized he did care. Her presence did matter to him. He was maybe in love with her. But then what's the use of late realizations? She was probably happy with someone else." She should be 24 by now " he thought."Yeah, i'm 25 and she was a year younger to me."Maybe she was married already? No, it couldn't be this fast.But 24 is not that young. And anyway, whatever happened was 4 years ago.So, why wouldn't she move on? "He murmured under his breath. She wouldn't obviously do it like him.After she left, he never ever looked at a girl properly. It was weird but true. Girls didn't interest him like before and all that he cared about was his job and career.
Brushing his thoughts off he dialed a familar number. Before he could say anything hea heard his best friend say "Even he thought kritika couldn't be happy without him, She did too but surprisingly she is the happiest person on the earth right now, funny how they both were wrong, if you feel sad bcuz of a break up..don't be, life moves on & sometimes we meet other people who are way better than the previous one, it's just the matter of time & patience always leads us to something better"
"Wow...what the hell was that Purvi?"
"Hello Mr.Arjun Punj, you know what the hell was that. And if you're wondering how come i know then well you've been my best friend since the past 24 years so its obvious i know you pretty well. And i know you wouldn't call me past midnight just to say you're bored right?"
"Uh, you know i love you. But it's a long time already. 4 years you know? Life hasn't lead me to anything better."
"Because what you lost was the best thing ever. And once You hurt the right person & you will be wrong your whole life."
"Wow Purvi! Thanks for making me feel better." Arjun rolled his eyes.
"The pleasure's mine Mister. But,you know i am right.She was my best friend as well. As a matter of fact, she was closer to me more then you. But thanks to you, i have no idea where she is now.I don't even know if she exists or not. A part of me will always hate you for doing that to her no matter what Arjun. Only if you weren't my best friend since birth i would kill you."
"I know Purvii.And you know i would do anything to make it right."
"And there's nothing that's going to make it right. Anyway let it go. I know you live each and every moment with that same guilt and regret.And I would say you deserve to live with it.Live with this pain. I know there is always this special moment when we wish there was this special person we could share my happiness, wish there was someone special we could talk to when we are down, someone that would call me
just to say I love you.And you can't ever live all those special moments coz of your own mistake.And You deserve it."
"What kind of best friend are you huh?"
"Being a best friend doesn't mean constantly supporting you in everything right?What you did was wrong, utterly wrong so I will always do this to you."
Arjun rolled his eyes.He knew she was right and he had no complaints.He deserved it so he would go through it.He loved it how Purvi could be so honest about her opinions.She hated Arjun for whatever he did and kept reminding him of that. Maybe because he wanted her to understand the pain he had given her?
"Oye Arjun" she literally screamed over the phone.
"Oh yes yes. Why the hell are you screaming?"
"Oye it was you who stopped responding.It's natural of me to get worried.Anyway, remember we have a flight early tomorrow for the inauguration ceremony of the new factory to Simla. So go and get some sleep.Don't think much and don't stress out on the past atleast now.You have a flight early morning so sleep at the moment. You can torture yourself with the past once you're done."
"Okay Boss." he smiled and hung up on her.
He went to his bed and closed his eyes to catch up with the new morning, a new start.
So that's it for now.Give me your opinions about the ff nd suggestions for the title of this ff plz.
