'Kucch ankahee Baatein'
I never come up with good titles lol. ๐๐๐
So, here is another chapter!
Ch 3:-
Suman felt as if someone was hammering her head and heart.
' He is infront of me. After so many years! Oh God! What is happening with me!'
She was frustrated. While Shravan and Piyush got engaged in a conversation, Suman was lost in her own world. Never ever in her life has she expected she would meet him!
Flashback...
Suman entered school to find it unusually silent. She was surprised to see all pairs of eyes looking at her.
Bunty, Anish, Devika and Shravan were missing.
'Where are they?' Suman asked Saheb.
The colour from his face drained.
' Say something, Saheb! Don't be silent! Speak up!'
' What will he say? What's left to say, Suman? All this happened because of you!'
' Devika? What happened? What did I do? Is anything wrong? Tell me what happened!'
' Because of you, just because of you Shravan left! You made him leave us! Why Suman? Why?'
Tears pooled in Suman's eyes and blurred her vision.
' He left because of you! You played with his heart and ...'
Suman couldn't hear more and ran away from there.
Flashback ends.
'Captain...'
' Yes?'
' Where are you lost? It's time for the round of the troop.'
' Coming.'
On the other side:-
Shravan was baffled. He was speechless. The door of his past opened again. The emotions which he had buried deep inside his heart till now awoke again. He felt uneasy. His memories with his Sumo flashed in front of his eyes.
'She hasn't changed. The same smile, the same eyes, the same determined face. Everything is the same in her! Only I have changed. Will I be able to avoid her now? If I don't, I will do injustice to Ruhi and Kankana. No no, Shravan! You can't do this! Not again! I can't ruin her life! But what if she still loves me? What if she has feelings for me? What if...'
' Shravan? What are you thinking?'
Piyush kept a hand on his shoulder.
' Nothing much. Random thoughts.'
' Come, let's review the troops.'
' Yeah, let's go.'
***
' Squad, line up!' Suman's voice pierced the air.
Shravan turned to her and automatically his lips curved into a smile. Realising he was smiling he turned the other way and made a stiff face and started his work.
Piyush, on the other hand couldn't stop admiring her, his fiancee, and his love, yes, he has fallen in love with her, inspite of knowing she will never be his. One sided love hurts, he knows, but still...
Thus begins the saga of the trio. Let's see what fate has in store for them. Will SuVan reunite forever or will sperate again? Will Piyush get his love or will suffer from one sided love? What about Shravan's past?

' Captain Tiwari, please come here, help is needed!'
' Coming!'
Trucks with rations had come and the around people were unloading the boxes.
She joined them and started unloading the boxes.
Although Shravan was busy unloading, his mind was wandering around her. As a result, he dropped a box and slightly injured his toe.
' Ouch!'
' Shra.. Major!'
Suman rushed to him. He withdrew his toe before she could examine the wound and nurse it.
Tears pooled in her eyes as she understood him.
' Why are you avoiding me, Shravan? What have I done?'
Piyush-' Are you okay? Show me ...'
Suman was puzzled to see them.
' Looks like they know eachother. But how? Probably they met during training.'
That night:-
Suman was sitting by the fire to make herself warm. Beautiful memories of the past flashed in front of her.
' I read somewhere, Just as a candle is useless until you light it, so a man is useless until the fire inside his soul is lit.'
Piyush came and sat beside her
' You speak beautifully, Piyush.' She smiled.
She felt lighthearted while talking with him. He worries seemed to lessen.
Suman noticed Shravan sitting opposite to her.
She kept her gaze fixed on him and said,' You know, Piyush, Fire has given me many bittersweet memories.'
Something hit Shravan's heart hard. He started reminiscing his past, with her. The beautiful moments that had together.
' No not enjoying the warmth of the fire fully, Sumo.'
' What do you mean?' Suman narrowed her eyes at his words.
' I mean this...' He crept behind her, took her palms in his, put them a little bit close towards the fire and made them touch her cheeks.
' Now, this is the perfect way to enjoy the warmth of the fire. Understood?'
' Hmm. It feels so good.'...
***
' Look, this is how you enjoy the fire.'
Piyush did the same thing which she and Shravan used to do.
' Shravan showed me this.' Piyush continued.
' You know him?'
' We met in NDA and became friends there. He is really a good guy.'
' I know.' Suman replied, absent minded.
' Huh?'
' I mean he looks so.'
' Oh.'
Suman- 'Can I ask you something?'
' Sure!' he smiled.
' Can you please keep the news of our engagement a secret here? I mean...'
He cut her in the middle,' I understand. Don't worry. This will be a secret.'
' Thank you.'
' No thanks you and sorry. Don't you remember we are friends? And there is no thank you and sorry between friends?'
Something sank in Shravan's heart when he saw the two together, talking and smiling. He felt something awkward. A feeling he never experienced. Was it jealousy?
