Love is a battlefield,
Ranveer's POV
I didn't know whether to be happy or to be sad, whether to jump with joy or to cry with sadness. I had hurt the only person other than Panchi who understood me just for my own jealousy. It shouldn't have been like this. Everyone should have been happy. I didn't anticipate this. It just happened all of a sudden.
Flashback:
"Moti, I'm craving for an ice-cream so Sayonara. I'm off. Bye," Ranveer said, as soon as he saw she was getting a call from Avi.
"Nonu, are you pregnant by any chance? If yes, then please tell me. Bye anyway. I'm getting a call from Avi. Adios amigo," saying this, Panchi, the love of his life picked up the phone and turned away. Ranveer picked up the pillow and hugged it with tears streaming down his face.
"I love you so much Moti. So much that it hurts a lot. I wish I could tell you my feelings but I can't. Not when you're so happy with Avi. I don't want it to be awkward between us so I just have to keep my happy face up in front of you," he said with his head bent and suddenly looked up when he heard Panchi talk. Only then did he realize that he hadn't turned off his video chat. Desperately hoping she had been too absorbed in her call, he quickly wiped his tears and looked up.
"Moti, why are you crying? Did Avi say something?" he told her, worried that something had happened. "Avi didn't say anything Ranveer. You did. Couldn't you have told me this before dumbo? I love you too. I thought you loved Rukmini so I didn't tell you about my feelings. I love you so much Nonu, ever since 9th Grade, I've loved you," Panchi told. Ranveer could only reply with "Avi?"
"I broke up with him on the phone as soon as I heard you. He understood and told me we would always stay friends and he was happy for me," she told him with a smile on her face.
Flashback ends.
That's it. A few minutes had changed everything. Friendships broken, new relationship created and relationships were broken. Nothing would probably ever be the same.
Avi's POV:
"Why does this always happen to me? This happened between Omi and me too and now I can't even remember her name. Omi was back to square one with me. Being my best friend. The last time too, it was one of my very close friends and this time again it's Ranveer who I considered closest to me. Once again, it's not the girls's mistake and once again, Titli is not there to support me. Yes, I didn't love Panchi, yet, but she was the only one who supported me through the whole Avantika fiasco even when I hurt her. I didn't realize when but somewhere, it had struck a chord and I had begun falling for her. I don't think I can ever look at Ranveer or Panchi the same way again. They brought the past I was running away from in front of my eyes, again.
Panchi's POV:
I'd confessed to the love of my life but why am I not feeling complete. There is still a void in my heart. Had I lost a dear friend in order to gain my love? Was I falling for Avi in the week we dated or is it just me missing him after so many weeks of being close friends? I hadn't felt like this with Omi. What is happening to me? Why am I so confused? Am I not supposed to be happy? Ranveer has also become distant and Avi doesn't even glance at me. Was this Avi's definition of friends? Right now, it was only KD who is helping me through this but how many questions can he answer? Doesn't he have a life of his own?
The only person who can help me is I. I hope I can figure it out before it's too late and before I lose the two people closest to me.
One can only hope.
Everyone involved loses, and everyone involved wins.
