Holding Emotions

"Pooja"

It's him, I can still remember his voice ,oh god, I don't want to see him please....

"Pooja", Raghav called her once again

Pooja controlled her emotions and slowly turned her face towards him, gave him a smile and said " hai Raghav, how are you?"

Raghav: Hey Pooja , it's been 5 years I didn't see you, how are you?

Pooja: I am fine, didn't expect, you will be back to India.

Raghav: yeah, I have to, because of my mom

Pooja : Oh!

Raghav: Are you leaving?

Pooja: yes, it's been very late, my parents are worried, so I have to leave.

Raghav: can I drop you?

Pooja: Thank you, but I already booked a cab, it will arrive in 5 mins.

Raghav: oh ! can you cancel the cab?, I want to talk to you.

Pooja: I think there is nothing left between us to talk Raghav, it's all came to an end 5 years back.

Raghav can see the pain in pooja's eyes. but before he can say something pooja's cab arrived.

Pooja got into the cab and said bye to Raghav.

Raghav's heart was bleeding, he came to wedding only to meet her but she didn't even give him a chance to talk.

Pooja's POV:

After getting into the taxi, I couldn't control my emotions, my eyes were filled with tears, 5 years, it's too long Pooja, he has no feelings for you, forget him, he is not worth your pain, just try to be normal.

I reached home, there is no one at home ,my parents went to my grandparents village as my grandfather was not feeling well, and wanted to see his children.

I was supposed to go with my parents but because of Neha's wedding I postponed my journey, Now , I am feeling lonely.

oh god ! why do I feel so much of pain, this all happened 5 years ago but why do I feel as if it all happened just now. I went to the balcony, my favourite place , I spend my time there whenever I feel lonely.

Raghav's POV:

yes, it's her. I felt little tensed to go and speak to her, Yes, I was wrong, I didn't even have a courage to speak to her, I saw her as soon as I entered the wedding hall, I was observing her from the corner of my eye.

she turned her head and saw me , I felt nervous when my eyes met with her, she ignored me and was trying to leave the hall, I followed her

gathered a lot of courage to speak to her , but she said its all over , I was speechless, she got into the cab and left, I followed her without being noticed, parked my car near her house, hiding behind a tree .

I saw her turning on the light in the first floor of her house, I know it's her room.

I wanted to see her again, earlier she use to come into her balcony attached to her bedroom whenever she feels happy or sad.

she loves to spend the time in the terrace garden. By the way she loves gardening.

she came to the balcony, I saw her wiping her tears, I feel she still has feelings for me, I saw the pain and anger in her eyes in the wedding.

Common Raghav, you have to gain her trust back, with that I slowly started my car and reached home, but I couldn't sleep whole night.

I cursed myself for ignoring her that day.
