Fake smile

Tiya cleared her teary eyes and put on a fake smile on her face before leaving her room.

Outside the room

Adi hugged her tightly and then both of them left the place to attend her graduation ceremony. Tiya was addressed as the best student of the year for getting highest marks. When teachers announced her name, she was asked to give a motivational speech to her fellow students so that they can also become like her.

"I would like to thank you all for giving me such a valuable honor..... ... ..... ..... "Tiya read her already prepared speech without any expression but in the end with teary eyes she said, "Last but not the least I would like to share this trophy with the most important person of life, who was there for me through every thick and thin of life."

Adi was smiling on hearing her words, as he was thinking that these words are for him, but in reality these words are for her best friend -Sam

After this ceremony Adi asked Tiya to accompany him for lunch date as their flight is after five hours.

..... ... .... .... .... ...... ......

During lunch date

Tiya was astonished to see the grandeur of the restaurant that Adi had booked for her.

The whole venue was decorated with her favorite white orchids.

There was a big screen at the corner displaying different pictures of Tiya.

From her childhood till now all the pictures were carefully picked by Adi.

Adi hold Tiya's hand and walked towards the center table that was filled with various delicious recipes along with two glasses of red wine 🍷.

Adi took out a gift packet from his pocket and gave it to Tiya.

Tiya opened the packet and found a diamond bracelet inside that.

Adi took it from Tiya's hands and helped her in wearing that.

The shine of diamonds on Tiya's beautiful hands is like beautiful moonlight sparkling in the sky.

When he was putting bracelet on her hands, soft music started playing and flower petals started falling from the top.

It was a perfect romantic date that every girl dream about, but for Tiya it's just another compromise that she is going to do in her life for the sake of her mother's happiness.

Just as Adi was about to hug her. the picture on the projection screen changed and it showed a smiling pic of Tiya when she was five years old on a swing and the face if the boy standing behind the swing is blurred in this particular picture but when Tiya saw that, she was not able to control herself, tears made their way out of her eyes by their own.

That day they both were swinging, laughing and singing together. Each and every memory of that day flashbacked in her mind in the split of that second.

Adi was continuously looking towards Tiya. Although there were minor changes in her expression but Adi's eyes were sharp enough to notice all these changes.

His instincts already told him that something is not right at Tiya's part, but now he is sure about that and now he need to find out the real reason behind Tiya's behavior.
