Our relationship continued for a few days because, after that, Anirudh texted me saying he just wanted me to be his friend and the fact was that we did not even get a chance to meet.

Flashback.

As I was playing with my little brother, I received a text from Anirudh. Our relationship had been a bit rocky lately, so I was nervous about what he might say. I wondered if I had done something wrong?

"ARC: Bondita, I want to tell you something important," the text read.

I responded, "Yes, I'm listening."

"ARC: Bondita, I just wanted to be your friend. I mistook my feelings. I'm really sorry for wasting your time."

My heart sank as I read his message. It was like my worst fear had come true. I didn't know what to say, so I just texted him back with a simple "ok." like a fool I am.

After that, he went offline and didn't like the text like he always did. I didn't know what to feel. I wasn't happy, but I wasn't exactly sad either. It was hard to feel anything when we were nothing but strangers in our relationship.

But that was just the beginning. The real story started after that.

End of flashback

A few hours later, my brother Veer came to my room. "Bro, I'm really sorry. I didn't know he was going to come to our house today. I promise," he said.

"I know, Veer. I trust you," I replied, kissing his forehead and hugging him. It felt good to be close to my brother again.

"I missed you, Bro," he said, smiling.

"I missed you too."

Then, he suggested, "Bro, I think you should give Anirudh another chance. He is-"

"VEER! What are you saying?! You know what happened last time. Why are you telling me to give him another chance? You know I gave him a thousand of chances already back then! And now I have a boyfriend Veer. Keep that in your mind" I interrupted him, feeling angry. Anirudh was everywhere, and I didn't know what his motives were. But I promised myself that I wouldn't let him hurt me again.

I wiped away my tears and tried to compose myself. No more crying for him.

Veer hugged me one last time and left my room.

Later that day, I called Aansh, my best friend more than my boyfriend. He had been there for me during my worst times.

Finally madam ko hamari yaad aa geyi"(Finally, madam remembered me)," he teased me when he picked up the phone.

I chuckled, "It's not like that, Aansh-"

"I know, Bon. I'm just teasing you," he interrupted. But I couldn't help but wonder if I should tell him that Anirudh still affected me.

No, no! That's wrong, Bondita. I scolded myself for even thinking about it.

"Bon?" Aansh's voice brought me back to reality.

We talked for a few minutes before I said goodbye and hung up.

Anirudh

I saw her after four long years, my heart was racing with anticipation. It felt like just yesterday when I had last seen her, and now she stood before me, the same bubbly girl I remembered from all those years ago. Her eyes still spoke which she couldn't, just like they used to, and I couldn't help but be drawn to her once again.

But as fate would have it, my phone rang, and it was Veer on the other end. I had asked him to talk to Bondita on my behalf, but his words hit me like a ton of bricks. "Di doesn't agree," he said, "and she's in a relationship."

I felt like I had been slapped back into reality. I had been so caught up in my own feelings that I had completely forgotten that she might have moved on. But even with that knowledge, my love for her had never truly waned. It had only grown stronger with time.

All of this had started because of a letter I had received, a letter that had made me realize just how much I had lost by letting her go. And now, even after all these years, I knew that I still loved her with all my heart.

This all happened because of that girl! I will never forgive her!!.

I had made mistakes in the past, and I knew that it was my ego that had gotten in the way of our relationship. But this time, I was determined to make things right. I would apologize until she forgave me, and I would prove to her that I could be the man she needed.

I had seen the same emotions in her eyes that I had felt for so long, and I knew that I had to do everything in my power to win her back. I promised myself that I would not let my ego ruin everything once again. I would make sure that she knew how much I loved her and that I was willing to do whatever it took to make things right.

Anirudh Roy Choudhary never made fake promises, and this time was no different. I knew that if I put my heart and soul into it, I could win Bondita back and make her mine once again.

Anirudh's POV It was.

      And

Remember, it's important to put your ego aside and cherish your relationships. Don't be afraid to express your love for someone - fear will only hold you back. Even if you're rejected, it's better to have tried than to live with the regret of never knowing what could have been. Trust that fate will guide you towards what's meant to be. So, go ahead and take that leap of faith - you never know where it might lead you!
And yes If you want to move on and are not able to. Go and confess. It really helps.
