Chapter 1
New Zealand 6:30am February 15th 2016
The sun's rays disturbed her and brought her out of her dream. She sighed, knowing it had been 3 years and yet she still dreamed of being in his arms. She had been so used to waking up and finding her self in his arms, it was now a habit. One that she couldn't get rid of.
Yeah, she thought to herself 3 years and she failed at getting rid of that habit of hers. She helped herself to coffee and stared at the cars passing by so early in the morning. Today she still wondered to herself what went wrong. Their love was like a song, they had this strong bond. But what was it that separated them apart?
"Not Again". Sonali groaned entering the kitchen.
"What?". Khushi asked puzzled. "You have got to be kidding me". Sonali grumbled face palming.
As realisation dawned on Khushi she replied. "You would think, you would be used to it by now".
"Exactly, what I thought. But, it's your fault as well. If you would stop waking up every morning and reflecting on what went wrong with Arnav and you over a cup of coffee maybe I would get over it. What is this? Dr. Phil mixed with Coffee with Karan?". Sonali said raising an eyebrow and pouring milk into her cereal.
Khushi sighed and look away without replying.
Sonali inhaled a long deep breath before continuing. "Look. You think about him 24/7 then why are you hesitating so much about returning to Dehli?".
Khushi didnt know the answer. It didnt make sense. Nothing made sense in her life right now.
"You don't have to answer. Just think about it". Sonali said offering a small encouraging smile.
"Nothing makes sense". Khushi said softly.
"It never did, maybe you guys were never meant to be". Sonali replied.
Sonali's words attacked Khushi like someone just stabbed her heart and ripped her soul out. Tears welled up in her eyes.
"Get ready, we have to leave soon". Sonali said exiting the kitchen.

He stared at the ceiling of his room. He took a glance of the clock in his room for the 100th time that night. Everything had changed but nothing had changed. That made no sense he thought to himself, infact nothing made sense.
He stared at the photos that hung in his room. All of them were of them two. He closed his eyes and looked at all the memories he had left of them two. He remembered how every morning he would wake up to find her struggling to get out of his grip, he would purposely make it tighter. He remembered when she used to be in the kitchen making jalebies and he would enter and wrap his arms around her waist, making her feel a bit better.But, most of all he remember those eyes questioning him in what went wrong.
His eyes flashed open when it came to that memory. Nothing went wrong but they just couldnt be together. Well, thats how he explained it. He didnt realise when he entered his dream world where he would be with her. Just her and him, in their own world.
Little did they know, that even though they were on the other side of the world they were still so close to each other.

"Hurry Up Khushi!!!" Sonali yelled
Khushi could hear Sonali screaming across the house. Khushi opened her mouth to reply but decided to drop the idea.
"Hurry Up!!! Khushi we're getting late!!!".
They got in the car drove to the airport. The whole conversation was boring well it wasnt much of a conversation it was just Sonali going on about things and Khushi being lost in her own world. Khushi was brought back to reality when Sonali pressed the honk to remind the driver in front to follow the rules of the roads of New Zealand. Khushi failed fighting the urge to let a smile appear on her face. Sonali was happy to see the missing smile back on her best friends face.
"Have you told Neerav that we have left?". Khushi asked.
"Oh Shit!". Kashish swore.
" Your such a bad girlfriend, I will get to it right away". Khushi giggled and dialled Neerav's number.
They boarded the plane, and set off to start a new chapter of there life.
