Hi guys (: My name's Esha.
D3 ka current halaat dekhe, mujhe bohut writing power mil raha hai🥱🤣😵
So, i dont know, this OS is the result of frustrations and just stories and incidents that go through my head during my boredom.
other work:
the following story is just something I'd add to D3 if there was ever a leap and if Kria was to come back (:

A Life of Love
Six years later :
Kria Ghai left St Louis abruptly- losing her friends, her passion, her love.
Since she left she had never turned to dancing ever again.
She never looked back and visited St Louis,
just in fear she'd be even more hurt than she was already.
Each night she would look at that one picture of his beautiful, chiseled, smiling face.
Every night she'd cry for leaving, for never seeing him again,
for not giving a proper good bye, for lying.
Kria enrolled at a college in Dehradun. Her bubbly self was gone.
She went to college speaking to no one, and came back home speaking to no one;
she only spoke when she needed to.
She practically lost the life inside of her.
And her mother realized her daughter wasnt the same anymore.
Soon, Kria graduated college and began her career life.
She moved out of Dehradun and left for New York.
There she decided to go back to her old passion, her inborn passion.
She set up her own small dance academy, and within a few months,
it became one of the most successful
'Contemporary and Hip Hop Dance' academy in the city.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reyansh Singhania took up his father's business.
His father was one of India's biggest business tycoons.
Even he'd lost the life he had in himself.
He still had his friends, Swayam, Sharon, Vicky, and Neha.
He remembered his other friends day to day,
but they had taken up their own career in dance and
were all over India training others.
Ever since that gruesome night, his heart was literally broken.
Everyone around him tried to help him, to cheer him up, to help him forget,
but it just wasn't that easy.
He'd never been in love before, and his first love was his fall.
Rey's mother knew how much he loved a girl.
Rey never told his mother who it was, how she looked like, and never even spoke of his love. But a mother is a mother.
She knew her son, and couldnt bear to see him still depressed
over an incident that happened six years back.
She began to tell him to settle down, to begin his life anew.
And every time, Rey's answer was a simple: no, not now.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kria's mom couldn't see her daughter in any more difficulty either.
Yes she was living her passion, but she knew how empty she was inside.
She scolded herself for ruining her dreams six years back.
She figured it was time for Kria to begin a new phase in her life.
*ring ring*
"Hello?"
"Haan, Kria? Kaisi ho?"
"Teekh hoon. Aap?"
"Hmm, Kria, suno, mujhe lagta hai tumhe nahi start karni chaiye. You know, settle down, get marr-"
"Mom, not now, and plus yahaan pe mera academy hai."
"But Kria, neceessary hai tere liye! Main dhoond loon kya? Agar teri koi pasand hai, toh mujhe bol"
The conversation went silent. Kaash aapko pata hota mama. Mere pasand? Kria sighed. Meri zindagi tha woh.
"Hello? Kria? Are you there?"
"Uh, hmm, yeah, uh i dont know mamma. Jaise aapko teekh lage."

At a fancy party in Mumbai:
<Kria's Mom is a professional Photographer>
Business Man: "Can i please have Mr Singhania and his son to please come up.
And now can i please have Mr Saxeba to come up. This here, ladies and gentleman is the successful partnership of India's biggest business companies. Cheers."
Kria's mom went around and took photos.
She was confused a bit and she stopped clicking,
and took a look at the young man dressed in a grey vest,
blue buttoned shirt underneath- sleeves rolled up; and grey slacks.
She felt like the man was very familiar. But she couldnt put her finger on it.
Soon after, the party was coming to a close end.
Smriti ate the food she was served.
Mrs. Singhania walked up to Smriti and greeted her.
She asked if she was all right.
"Hmm, yes Miss, the food is delicious thank you."
"Would you like some more? Please help yourself"
"No no, thank you. The decorations of the party is beautiful Miss. Love the color combinations."
"Thank you. Hope you didnt have difficulties."
"Miss, is that your son?" Smriti poited towards the young man she was confused about earlier.
"Yes. My one and only son. So proud of him, but*sigh*"
"But what Miss? Sorry for asking, dont mind"
"No no its okay. It feels good to have someone to share my troubles with. Its just that my son, i worry about him. He's so lost sometimes- bilkul chup chap. But he wasnt like that before. I tell him to settle down and find a life partner, but ekhi jawaab milta hai, 'no mom, abhi nahi'. Umar bhi hai uske, lekin, khair jo likha hai kismat mai"
"Main samjh sakti hoon." Smriti sighed; she missed her daughter so much.
"Matlab?"
"Meaning, meri ekhi beti hai. Woh bhi aise depressed rehti hai. Pata nahin, meri bhi galti hai. Meine usko mana ki thi uske dreams ke peeche bhag ne ke liye. Lekin ab New York mein rehti hai, khud ki dance academy hai. Phir bhi, usme woh toota toota feel hai. Pata nahi kyun, mujhe kuch bhi nahi kehti. Mein bhi usse bolti hoon, ki shaadi kar lo, settle ho jao, acha laga ga. But same answer, i dont know"
"Lagta hai hamare bache ke ekhi haal hai..."
The two mothers looked back at each other. They were thinking the same thing.
"Shall i call her back from New York?"
"Should i tell him?"
"YES!" the two mothers exclaimed.
"Mera ghar, Dehradun, this Saturday?"
"Hum saab ayenge"
"I just pray ke mere bache ke zindagi mein khushi wapas aaye"
"Mein bhi"😳
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Dehradun?" Rey spoke harshly, shocked almost. It all started at that place.
"Yes, please beta no ifs and buts. Mujhe na positive vibes aa rahi hai! Please mana maat karna"
"But mom!!?"
"Listen to your mother son, i think she's right. In fact mein bhi raazi hoon. Your mom says the girl is beautiful."
"Aapne tasveer dekhi hai uski? Mujhe toh dekhne dijiye!"
"Issilye Saturday jaa rahe hain hum larki ko dekhne"
"Mom, Saturday office pe kaam hai"
"Son, there's nothing at office on Saturday, I would know"
"Fine. Lekin mujhe time lage ga."and he left the room.
Mujhe nahi lagta time lage ga tujhe.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"What mamma? You already confirmed it ? Isiliye aap mujhe New York se yaahan bula liya? And you said you were really sick!"
"Agar main nahi bolti ki meri sehat kharap hai, tu toh nahi aati! Am i right"
"Still mamma, mujhe surprises ache nahi lagte!"
"Mujhe toh lagta hai"
"Main mazaak nahi kar rahi hoon. Mamma mujhe abhi shaadi waadi nahi karni!"
"Listen Kria, larke waale bohut ache hai, please, mana maat karna! Woh log bhi tumhe pasand karta hai"
Kria grunted and crossed her arns across her chest.
"Hamesha se aap mere zindagi ke decisions lethi hai, toh aaj kyun nahi" Kria looked at her mother grimly.
"Kria, teri bhalai ke liye hai"Smriti said, a little guilty.
"Aapne uss raat bhi aise kaha..."
"Kria trust me, mein maa hoon teri"
"Isiliye mein agree kar rahi hoon larke ko dekhne ke liye" and she left the room.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Saturday came and Kria sat in her room. She felt sick to her stomach.
She took out the picture she fell asleep to every night.
Every night she grieved leaving his side. The happiness he gave her was indescribable.
He was her sunshine. She never looked at another guy ever.
She left his side indeed, but her feelings for him never left her heart.
"I've never loved anyone else but you Rey.
So how can i go and take such a big step such as marriage?"
She got up and dressed herself in a white churidar.
She didnt like wearing traditional clothes too much, but it was needed today.
She let her hair fall down three inches below her shoulder.
She put on some earrings, and slight make up.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rey put on a white formal shirt, and kept the top few buttons open.
He got dressed and went downstairs. His parents were ready to leave as well.
Sitting in the car, Rey's head and heart was all over the place.
He remembered that night and the whole year before it perfectly.
From the very day he laid eyes on her, he was spellbound. And since that night,
Rey never looked at another girl in the way he saw Kria.
"Kria, where ever you are, I'm sorry. Im going to the doors of my new life"
he thought to himself
All of a sudden, the Singhania's car came to a stop. Mr Singhania yelled from inside as the drive went to check what was wrong.
"Sir, tire puncture hui hai"
"Acha, challo, lagta aaj larke koi nahin dekhenge, Challo ghar wapas"
"Rey ... chup beht"😆
Rey stepped out of the car and went looking for a mechanic nearby. He rolled up his sleeves, it was too hot.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Oh god, Mithai bhi nahin hain! Main toh bhul hi gayi"
"Mamma, ill go and get some"
"No no you stay, amein Hari Prakash ko bhejh ti hoon, agar ladke wale agaye toh?"
"Nahin ayenge, paas mein hi toh hai mithai ki dukkan"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The store was pretty close by, so Kria chose to walk to the store. Her neighbors stared at her in awe. They never saw her in this look before, she was always seen in western clothes. The chudiyan, open hair, and salwar was like a shock to them. Kria nodded her head back and forth and kept walking. There were two mithai stores close by, one next to a mechanic store, the other near the mandir. She chose to go left to the one near the mechanic store. She walked a little more and ordered a two boxes of laddoos and jalebis. Just when she turned back she felt a pull on her dupatta.
"Ye Dupatta pull sachi mein hoti hai kya? Mujhe lagta sirf movies mein aise hota"😆
He tried to take the dupatta off from his watch, but it got stuck in such a way that it'd take a little time to take off.
She turned around and gaped awkwardly. You'd expect her to scream and run around and hug him, but she looked him up and down really closely, raising her eyebrow in disbelief.
He hadn't noticed he was being eyed up and down as he was too busy freeing the dupatta from his watch. When he succeeded he spoke softly and said, "Sorry Miss, aapka dupatta mere ..."
He looked at Kria with wide, cartoon like eyes and stepped back, nodding in disbelief.
Kria looked back at him sheepishly, squinting. She blinked a few times to see if the figure was really there.
"aa... aapka dupatta mere ... gari... i mean... ghadi ke saath lar gayi, matlab stuck, matlab ataak gayi" He was fumbling. I did not just see Kria, did I?
He panicked and made a u-turn.
Kria still looked in his direction and tilted her head and wondered
"I did not just see Rey, did I?"
