Pratikri

"And what is pratikri??? And are you a super human being too?" I questioned

"Yesnt" He replied with a gen Z slang which means yes as well as no.

"What do you even mean by that?" I asked freaking out

"What the definition for super human for you?" Jared questioned. I looked at him strangely feeling the question was very odd.

After realizing I ain't replying to his question, he Continued, " if you consider super human to be someone who knows magic and stuff that I ain't one of them, But someone who possesses some power than the normal human being that yes I'm one of them."

"You are again confusing me up" I said rolling my eyes.

"Well, OK I will tell you this in as simplified verson that i can, I have better stamina from the very beginning and I great in handling knight since childhood, my parents being very influencential knew about this organization, not flaunting thought, so they took me, where I had to pass certain test and I got selected. This is how I learnt to use katana and this is the reason I could have fought the supernatural." Jared tried explaining.

"Ohhhhhhh" I reacted after joining all the dots.

"Well, this isn't yet" He said, "See I ain't justifying my actions but in the beginning of the course where we need to go to the organization continously for three year, they had an agreement."

"What agreement?" I asked, I was actually really afraid of more confession and revealations but I had no option but to go deep and find the truth.

"They wanted me to be single for that three years." He said with a sign

"Huh uh?" I gasped

"Yes, and remember I was constantly telling you to break up but than you used to do all cute things in the world that making hold to you. It was very difficult to let you go considering how much I have ever love you. You were like my first true love. And and....." Jared wasn't able to continue, he had tears in his eyes.

I came bit closer to him, even I kinda had water flowing through my eyes because just like him even I had never loved anyone like him.

After a long pause, holding my shoulders I Continued, "Within no time I started loving the use of katana and the way to become pratikri- a katana user and I wasn't able to let you go so I decided keep our relationship a secret but those people weren't any ordinary people, they could have sensed everything about me. As I tried, tried really really hard but the last way I thought where you can never come back to me was cheating on you, It unfortunately succeeded breaking me into pieces." He said and went a long cozy hug.

"At a point of time I felt you know that I should leave all this behind and go back to you but the consequences of leaving the organization in between would have destroyed all of us. I'm so sorry Serena. I never wanted to do.... what .... I did.... but.... I had to..." He said sobbing.

I honestly didn't knew how to react. We hugged eachother, there was just silence but it felt like we could have understood eachother words even in that silence.

"Hey its OK it's OK.. Don't cry munchkin." He said wiping all my tears with him himself being in tears and he leaned for a kiss, I stood there still. Neither stopping him up nor leaning in.

The kiss was interrupted by a knock on the door.

'Did I just dodged a bullet or missed another best moment of life' My inner self asked.

It was room service which had brought us alot of tasty food. Jared closed the door and looked my eyes, he thought about something but didn't say that, instead he said, "Let's eat"

While eating Jared questioned me about my stupidness and the exact reason of going to that place. I told him the whole story to which he reacted, "So, Aaron motivated you with all this?"
