Life had many ways of testing a person's will and patience, either by having nothing happened at all or by having everything happened all at once, or sometimes having things happened that we expected the least in that zone of time. The things we were dreading about appeared in front of us without giving any prior indications and turned life upside down.

Finally after 5 long months, I was going to see him. Smiling like crazy teenager, I left the set early and rushed to the airport to pick him up. Our relationship was going through a tough phase, but I had faith, together we could get past this. I was never the one who take relationships granted, never, and would do every possible thing to make it worth. It was mere a communication gap between us, once we talked it out, everything would be as good as earlier. Uff, I couldn't wait to see him, hug him and tell him how much he and his presence here meant to me. I was waiting in the cab at exit with all my palpable excitement. But along with that, there's some anxious feelings in my heart that couldn't get unnoticed, making me worried for no particular reason. Priyanka, Priyanka, just breathe okay, everything's going to be good, don't think much. Calming myself, I saw him exiting from airport and without a second thought, opening the cab door, I ran straight towards him.

I hugged him tight and all the piled up emotions showed their existence in my welled up eyes. Quickly controlling myself, before they found the way out from eyes, I pulled away from him. He was looking as good as I last saw him, but his eyes were stuck on surrounding rather than me. I waited for him to say something but as got no response I Hied him and he finally looked at me and smiled. I grabbed his hand and practically pulled him towards the hired cab. Once he arranged his luggage, we settled in the backseat and moved towards the apartment. My eyes were nowhere but on him, noticing every minute details while he was busy in phone. The tension between us couldn't get overlooked by me while my shaking legs gave an added indication of my itchy heart feelings. I waited for him to say something or atleast acknowledged my presence beside him but it looked like he wasn't mentally here. May be its just because he had a long flight, also we were meeting after a long period, he just needed some time to settle. I shook all the negative thoughts aside, the ones trying to surface again, the thoughts which were long buried by me once he said he was coming here, for me. I consoled myself, with hope that at the end of the day, everything would be gonna good, but little did I know, this was a mere beginning of a long day for me.

We reached home and I quickly introduced him to Rashmeet and Satti, though I had already filled them with everything about him. He went to the room shared by me and Rashmeet to fresh up while she left for some last minute shopping for my birthday. I wanted to talk to him too badly, so the heavy weight on my heart could be eased a little, but I decided to give him some time to settle. I hurriedly followed him and asked him to get comfortable and went to satti to help in kitchen. Though I was no particularly good in kitchen stuffs but I helped her out in chopping and side things. I wanted to spend sometime alone with him or just wanna go on dinner date where we could talk our hearts out, but seeing Rash and Satti's excitement for my birthday, I postponed the dinner plan till the day after tomorrow. When there's nothing more to do, I left the kitchen and entered the room to see him engaged on phone once again. I settled beside him on bed which grabbed his attention. I took his phone and kept it aside, and he finally looked at me. Staring back in his eyes, I tried to find answers to all my unsaid questions, seeking solace for all my unsure feelings, but in return found nothing, just a blank cold glance. No, no you're just overthinking and for god sake, stop with your assumptions.

"Kya chal raha hai tumahra haa, jabse aaye ho phone pe hi lage huye ho, tum yaha mujhse milne aaye ho bhul gaye kya, you dont even ask me, how am I."

I questioned him with fake anger. He didn't say anything but kept looking at me as I smiled and hold his hand with mine both hands.
