1 The Encounter

It has been seven months of that incident, she still can't forget that night...Ayesh never saw him after that night but today she knew that she's going to encounter him at the house party...😞

She never want to look any low in front of that man so she tried to look her best to show him what has he lost....😤

Being the month of winters, she wears a floral dress with a denim jacket and a pair of boots with a light makeup looking perfect for a house party...all set for the party she recheck herself looking in the mirror ready to leave the house for the party...😍

she took a cab while on a her way she's a bit nervous, after all it has been so long she met those people who were her so called friends...😒

But she doesn''t want to run away from her problems, from now, she is ready to face them. Afterall she was never wrong in the first place but she doesn't want to prove anything to anyone as they don't matter to her in any ways... thinking of all this she finds herself very lonely...😔

She reaches the house of Gail, one of the friends from the group...she pays for the cab and gets out...still confused whether to go in or not, she finds someone calling her name...It's Sam and his girl Raima, who gives her a look and smirks...avoiding that Ayesh smiles and move forward to talk....

"It's been a long time finally we got to see you..why didn't you go inside? where you waiting for someone?" Sam asks her with a meaningful look.🧐

"Ugh i was looking at the arrangements made, i just reached here a minute ago...."Ayesh knew that they called her here just to humiliate her, but she will not give them a chance to do so. As she had to face them one day better being today....🤫

She gets inside towards the hall, she has been to this place many times before, but now it looks so distant to her. She finds other people of the group over there...Gail his girlfriend Aish, Yuhan his girlfriend Misha, she can feel the disdain in their looks...she can't find him in the group which make her feel better, may be he is late, as she didn't want to encounter him right at the entrance, to spoil her mood, which is already not in a good state...😒

After the meet and greet and talking about their whereabouts...she wants a place to sit without any of the disturbances...

Soon she escape to the garden in the backyard to save herself from choking, there she a bonfire arranged, she sits by the side to take the warmth...🥰

She can see many new faces in the party...Being the Christmas party she can find the Christmas cake table near the Christmas tree, which she loves the most, she is very fond of cakes...🤤

As she was going to have the cake, she finds there is no one to give her a company, they all pestered her to come to the party and now she is all by herself, things were getting depressing for her, yet she has to come.😵

She knew, she has to come out of all this mess, she has to get over him and make a fresh start, to enjoy her life to the most..

Being in her own thoughts, she find someone calling Raihan's name...the name she never wants to hear ever again..the person she never wants to encounter...But she needs to do all this to overcome her past, the hell she was living in the last few months, she doesn't want to live in that anymore...So she has to come here to face the reality, to face him, to leave nothing to regret about.😤

She doesn't turn back, she sits near the bornfire, trying to show as if she doesn't care who the hell is he, she comforts herself saying that there is nothing to fear, she can face him, she can't be a laughingstock in front of these sick people... 😇

Just as she was thinking about all this Yuhan and group come to sit in circles near the bornfire talking and laughing ignoring her as if she doesn't exist.🤬

Ayesh gets up to get a drink for herself as she feels thirsty just turning back she crash into a girl,, apologising her she moves forward..the girls passes her smile telling her it's okay..Ayesh feels better looking at her smile but the very next second she sees a very familiar figure holding girl's shoulder asking her if she's fine....😦

Ayesh feels anxious as the flashback starts in front of her, but she doesn't show any expression on her face...she exactly knew this man is, looking at his figure and hearing his voice after so many months...she doesn't want to look at his face which reminds her of the incidents of the night she wants to forget the most...

She quickly excuse herself and go to the drink table and get a drink for herself to calm down her mind.👻
