First Kiss...Second?
Vice Principal, who was going through the college records comes across Kria's profile and requests Smriti to join her back in college. Kria comes back to college after her mom approves on VP's call.
VP announces he has a surprise for D3 team. From the students, he knew Kria was the person who formed weaklings team and the person responsible for the diminishing of Dazzler-Weaklings.
Everyone gathers in the atrium and Kria walks in slowly. D3 gang notices her spellbound.
I was left breathless... I just couldn't see anything else...Everything hazed out..and only visible thing was 'She'.
I was surprised to see that she still has the same effect on me.. The same hypnotizing one..
But it was painful...The memories of the moments we had spent together flashed in front of my eyes...Making every nerve of mine burn.
Kria.. This name, I just couldn't believe on neither my ears nor on my eyes.
He looked numb. For a second, I lost myself in the flow. All I could reminisce was the days and nights we spent talking and wished we had more time to speak. He was the same old Reyaansh but with the charm missing in his face as if it lacked the enthusiasm and bubbliness he always carried out with.
Maybe Old Reyaansh...the hunk was back in him.
"Meet Kria Ghai...", VP sir announced with pride and I smiled at his gesture when he placed an arm on the shoulder and encouraged me just like I was his daughter.
I glanced at him and my gaze was steeled back to Reyaansh. He seemed serious and that too on me.
I will tell him what happened and my friends too. My Dil Dosti Dance in life will be finally back .
I saw her smile...the one for which I use to work so hard. She was the same..Bold..Beautiful..But my eyes weren't focused enough to notice that change in her. She was weak, her smile was faded...And it seemed like she was fighting with so many things at one time...
I rubbed my hands, which were stiffening with every passing second. I needed some space, some time to register the reality of happenings... And with that final hazy thought coming to my mind.. I made my way out from that place...heading toward any freaking place of peace.
I wanted to calm down.. I wanted to get rid of this gloomy sensation.
It wasnt like I wasn't happy with her returning here.. I was.. Somewhere deep that soft corner bloomed again for her.
But those memories of our last meeting. They were fair enough to rub everything else from my mind.
I watched as his image faded out from the exit. Swayam glanced at Reyaansh and then at me. I thought at least Swayam would be glad because I came back and because he was the only person with whom I can share my feelings but he looked as gloomy as Rey.
"Excuse me Sir...", I requested and walked out following the same path which Rey took.
I wanted to clear out the unsaid things.
She ran in the same direction, with a heavy heart, each step she took towards him was as heavy than she ever imagined. For god's sake, she had imagined this whole confession thing a lot many times in her dreams, How would she arrange all the incidents in front of her friends, she had practice this in front of mirror many times but now everything was seeming to go against of it.
But before she could go any forward, she sensed someone pull her arm, stopping her.
"Kria.." Swayum spoke in his trembling voice.
"I need to talk to you...Now! " He said.
I was surprised to see Swayam tugging me by the arm. I smiled. Friends are the same. No matter what right?
"Swayam...I know I want to speak to you about alot of things but give me 5 mins...just 5 mins", I stressed.
"You want to talk to Rey right?", he questioned as if it was the most natural thing I would do.
I maintained calmness but didn't feel the need to hide it from Swayam. He was my best friend and he will help me. I know..
"Yes..", I replied after some time glancing at him.
"You still love him?", he voiced.
I was numb once again with his choice of words. I didn't know what to say...did Rey say everything to Swayam? In Everything I mean Every little thing.
"Yes", I spoke taking in a large hush of air.
"But he doesn't love you anymore...", the cold statement hitted me hard. Very hard..
This was expected, after all I wanted this to happen...I wanted him to move on.
But I never knew it would affect me so much.
"Kria...Give everyone some time.. moreover there are many things which I want to hear from you...I know you can never hurt anyone, So speak now! I want to hear every single thing.."Swayum said pleading.
And I was numb again, feeling my heart sink deeper. So this was the time now? Hasn't she always desired to speak about her sacrifices...Then why it was so difficult?
With final deep breath,I started telling him my long story...Just with one hope of being understood.
But Little did I knew my story was being listened by a second person out there. I looked back at Swayam after narrating him with a hope that he would understand me. I was astonished when he was flabbergasted. Pushing me aside, he ran across the corridor yelling the name of Rey at the loudest.The door of the fire escape banged close before Swayam could reach there and I was left speechless again.
No Ways... This cannot happen. After all these months, Haven't I tried to move on? Yes, I tried my level best. I loved Taani... And somewhere mend the broken pieces of my heart. All this time, I was actually trying to be someone else than me, wasn't it?
How much hatred I had for her, I killed all my feelings for her... And now after all these months.. I was back to square one!
This feeling was helpless, devastating and he was sinking much deeper into it.
He isn't any strong now, all his strength was lost long back. And now hearing her speak about the truth, he felt guilty, highly guilty.
Guilty- not because he hasn't remembered her in all these months, but guilty also because she suffered all alone and he thereby had broken his promise to be with her forever.
He breathed harder, his voice stammering, his hands shivering as someone was sucking life out from them continuously, his eyes were red with tears. And he just couldn't get over from this feeling of desperation.
He was angry on her!
She could have told him about that... But now things are changed.
I watched as Swayam effortlessly tapped the door asking Rey to open but he didn't. I walked up to him and placed a hand on Swayam's shoulder who sympathized me with his looks. He busted off the spot leaving me alone in the corridor.
"Rey...open the door...please...", kria mumbled.
"Leave me alone.." I shouted with all my might. I just didn't wanted to mete anyone, especially her. I felt betrayed again, but this time by my own fate. Why my life is so complicated? Why it has to be me always who fights with emotions and dig a live grave of them? I was tired, too tired and exhausted.
His voice practically yelled at me but I couldn't withstand. I wanted to see him sane and normal. Maybe Rey moved on for real but he isn't the hard rock like I thought he was in the initial days when I had a misconception of Dazzler Reyaansh.
"Rey...I know...", I said and breathed in a lump of air. "I know you don't love me Rey...but I want to talk to you once...", I continued.
There was no reply from his side.
"Maybe I don't deserve to have even a talk with you...Sorry Rey. Forgive me if possible", I spoke as my hands traced back away from the door and turned around closing my eyes.
I heard her soft voice, pain was evident, but my mind wasn't sane enough to rationalize things right now. I kept quite. I just wanted to sink into this feeling... Hoping her almighty to give me equal strength to fight against this feeling. I just couldn't wipe few things away...She underwent all these things alone? And took all the situations on herself, When did this transaction happen? When did I lost my Kria? She was brave enough, I knew it well, but from Where did she gathered this much strength to sacrifice all her dreams and Love?
How much ever I tried to be normal and strong like before, I couldn't help the moistness forming in my eyes. Is it too hard to say you are normal and behave like one when you are near your loved ones? A tear traveled down the eye , I wiped it away and resisted my heart from crying out loud until my heart felt light.
She stood opposite to the door glancing down at the atrium where VP was still discussing about something.
Her voice was melodious, just like before. How in heaven I wish I could tell her How much happy I was hearing her voice again. I wondered how I knew about the tears framing up in her eyes. I stood near the door, resting my head on it, hearing every word she was saying, and I just didn't knew what do to.
"I don't think he will possibly come out if I stay here...", I said and walked off. I met VP sir and signed the day off to go to house.
I needed some time to analyse everything that was happening too.
********************
I attended the college determined next day. I would avoid her to the possible extent. Its not like I was holding a grudge against her...its just that she deserves someone better than me...MUCH better than me.At the end of the day, I was the one who didn't believe her words, blindly trusted and got carried away with the words. Kria deserved someone better.
I saw her in canteen, and this was the first time since yesterday that I have seen her smile genuinely. Her smile was reaching to her gorgeous eyes. Bharat might have cracked up his silly joke. I shook my head, and walked towards the canteen counter, trying not to look at her. But in no world I could ever ignore her, Currently I was watching my lively old kria, not the one I have met yesterday.
And there she noticed me staring, I felt a punch on my chest, I just couldn't see in her eyes. I just couldn't...
I didn't notice when he walked in but gazed when I felt him around. He quickly turned away and chatted with Sharon. He looked a bit relieved and tension free, it was only with his fake smiles which couldn't reach up to his eyes. It was clear that he was avoiding me.
I will bring back the old Reyaansh in him, not for me but for himself, I thought,
I should have had a word with him before brutally breaking his heart on the valentine night. It was my fault that we were like this in the first place.
I'm glad you moved on, my heart said but it flinched too.
Deep in my heart, I still wanted to be the same Kria Ghai and him to be the soft hearted Reyaansh he was with me and our good old times back.
I was frustrated, feeling very low and this use to happen very less with me earlier, but now I am much used to it.
I danced on the beat of fast music...letting all my energy flow out...leaving me empty again.
But soon I heard someone's footsteps, somewhere deep I knew who it was.
"Swayum.. I want to be alone for sometime.."I managed to speak out without choking.
"No Rey! Things wont go anywhere with this attitude of yours. You need to talk dammit Talk! .
" Swayum replied to me angrily, and his anger was justified, I just can't shove everyone away like this.
"Look...Go ad talk to her.. things need to be sorted out. And by ignoring nothing will happen Rey" He tried to make it clear in my brain, and he was right.
I was leading no where like this.
I needed to talk to Rey, I chanted to myself for the umpteenth time. Bharat and Amar's talks didn't help me either. I stood up and strode outside for a walk along the corridor. Each and every place had memories associated with it. The corridor, atrium and even the fire exit which looked magnificent as I neared it. A pair of steps was hovering me, I turned back to check out of the person but was pulled into the fire-exit before I could understand anything.
It wasn't tough to recognize the only person who does with me. I opened my eyes and he was glaring at me. His gaze penetrated deeper causing shivers down my spine in fear.
I just couldn't think of any other thing...She was this much close to me...Haven't I always dreamed of it? Her eyes were still beautiful and the way she was lowering her gaze...For a moment I thought nothing had ever happened in between us two.
Everything was perfect for a moment. It was like the same old Kria n Reyaansh in the fire-exit. He gently traced his arm off my shoulder which I took a peculiar notice at.
"Rey I need to explain you...uss din", I spoke but my voice was forced down the throat when he placed his palm on my mouth and jerked me to the wall.
His touch was enough to melt me. I stood paralyzed waiting for him to make him move. He leaned in closer, my heart skipped a beat when I felt his breath on my face.
"Lets end it all here..", he mumbled as our eyes locked in unison. I looked at him in confusion.
"It was my fault Kria..I regret it...I should have believed in you instead of getting carried by your words...I should have trusted you and I feel disgusting...you loved me but I moved on with other girl...moved on because I was angry on you...because I just wanted to get over with you but now I know...I know you loved me more than I did...", he said.
I wanted to say it wasn't his fault alone, I protested and tried to remove his hand but he pushed me more closer against the wall increasing the proximity between us. He leaned in more closer until his eyes were away from his gaze and soothed near the ears.
"Its impossible for me to say I don't feel anything for you even after you said the reasons for what you did...you cared for me and what did I do? Didn't believe you. Kria...I know you still love me...but think practically Kria...you don't deserve me...you don't deserve someone who would leave you the way I did...you deserved someone...someone more better than me", he said adamantly.
"Better than you?" I revolted as no else could take his place in my heart . His words were not mere saying, they had far more impact on me..
"I don't think I can ever get a one Rey.. Because I all I ever wanted was You.. and nothing else.." I spoke out without thinking...noticing that change in his facial expressions...and after a minute recognizing the words I just said...
And what I felt in the response was his lips being gently crushed on mines...
It wasn't verbal, it was only about expressing what we felt each other. His lips caressed mine tenderly while his fingers rubbed over the cheek tucking the hair and relishing the taste of kiss. I clutched his shirt by the palm pulling him closer. The intensity we shared was creating havoc's. His lips left gentleness and kissed me roughly spitting the venom and anger he never had a chance to express before. His tongue battled with mine for dominance and his arms effortlessly cuddled me into his chest with me groaning when he bit my lower lip. I placed my arms on his shoulders later entwined them round the neck kissing him back. His fingers tucked the hair possessively and we were kissing breathlessly.
There was no certain need of any other thing to be discussed, probably we did our talking in a different way... and this way was surely better than former one.
Soon we broke the kiss, trying to suppress our heaving breaths. I looked up, into his eyes...and found few remnant flakes of past and immense love, which my Old Reyansh used to possess...
"This was out First Kiss...Wasn't it?" He whispered in my ears...making my bones melt and bend simultaneously.
"No..." I corrected him with a half mind, and after gathering my conscience I completed.
"This was our second kiss..."
"First one was our Butterfly Kiss, Remember?" I spoke shyly noticing him smile like before... He leaned again... This time also making me loose all my control soon I felt his eyelids flutter against mines...
