Third person’s POV

“I think someone has forgotten about me”

Turning back they saw Ishaan was standing there with a smiling face with open arms.

Anika ran towards Ishaan and hugged him, Ishaan engulfed Anika in his arms tightly.

ANIKA : how I can forget about you when you are always there in my mind and heart..(said pointing at her heart with her fingers)

ISHAAN : oh ho! what a dialogue! your Di is becoming filmy… right Niti?..... Hey, why are

Your eyes are glazing, are you crying?

Hearing Ishaan's words both Anika and Mihir looked toward her. Before they could ask anything more Nitika hurriedly replied...

NITIKA : No.. No... Something got into my eyes… why would I cry?  Ohh Di, I remembered something important… I have to go… bye…

She hurriedly left without hearing Anika's reply.

ANIKA : Hey… Niti…

Anika looked at Nitika's retreating figure worriedly. She understood what had happened to Niti , She then angrily turned around to look at Mihir.

ANIKA : Mihir bhai, what was that?

MIHIR : what?? What did I do?? (asked confusingly ).

ISHAAN : what happened, honey?

ANIKA : why did you say such a lie so seriously?

MIHIR : when did I lie? I didn’t lie.

ANIKA : you didn’t lie?? Really? Then why did you say you love someone?

MIHIR : why do you think... It is a lie? Can't I love someone?

Anika was dumbfounded. She didn’t expect that was true.

ANIKA : you love someone? ( asked very slowly in a disbelieving tone)

Mihir smiled but didn’t reply to her anything.

MIHIR : Ishaan, I will send you the photocopy of the hotel's paper… bye. I have some works to do, Bye angel.

ANIKA : wait.. Wait.. wait..

MIHIR : What?

ANIKA : what do you mean… Do you love someone? Who is she?

MIHIR : Angel, your boyfriend has come after so many days, spend time with him now. we

will talk about it later.

Saying this he left from there…

ISHAAN : let’s go, I have reserved a table at your favourite restaurant…

Anika left from there with Ishaan.

At the restaurant…

ISHAAN : what happened?

ANIKA : hmm? What? Nothing.

ISHAAN : really? I have been observing you since we left the airport and you haven’t

touched your food, you are just playing with it, what happened?? What is

bothering you??

ANIKA :  How can Mihir bhai love someone ?( asked with a sad expression)

ISHAAN : why can’t he?? You should be happy, why are you looking sad? … wait wait wait don’t tell me you love him!!!

ANIKA : what!!! What nonsense!! I love him but not like that, I love him as my

brother....my best friend.

ISHAAN : Then why are you sad? You should be happy…right ?

ANIKA : I want to but I can’t… I am sad.

ISHAAN : why? ( asked confusingly)

ANIKA : I am sad for Niti….I am very sad for her.

ISHAAN : why are you sad for her? I am confused… we are talking about Mihir…How does Niti relate to this ?

ANIKA : Don’t you understand anything??

ISHAAN : what? Say it directly, why are you beating around the bush?

ANIKA : I am sad for Niti, because I think Niti likes Mihir.

ISHAAN : what ( chuckled) … You think too much. Niti is just a young girl and she is not

shy type if she likes Mihir, she would have definitely told him.

ANIKA : No! you don’t understand, didn’t you notice whenever Niti has come in front of Mihir…she has always become so shy and today when Mihir told us that he loved someone, she became sad… she almost cried. I had said Mihir to joke but he didn’t sound like joking if it is true then what will happen??... Oh god, it will be my

sister’s first heartbreak, how will she overcome it. I have to talk with Mihir

bhai…

Anika was going to call Mihir when Ishaan snatched the phone from her hand…

ISHAAN : No… you will not talk about it.

ANIKA : why??

ISHAAN : Anika, if Niti  likes Mihir then she has to express her feeling herself and If Mihir really loves someone then you

cannot change someone’s feelings, so Niti has to suffer the heartbreak. You can

only help her to move on, don’t interfere in someone’s love life and I think

you are thinking too much, I don’t think Mihir has someone he likes or Niti

likes him…so don’t be sad.

ANIKA : Hmm… I understand… both are very special for me. I love them both very much. I just don’t want anyone to be hurt.

ISHAAN : I know…you can’t decide everything in their life. I know you have no mood to eat…go and check Niti. we will meet later.

ANIKA : Ishaan… sorry and thank you for understanding.

ISHAAN :  Don’t be sorry, I am your boyfriend if I don’t understand you then who will?

Hugging Ishaan Anika left from there.
