And Then You Happened

'She's Making Me Myself '

Mahir's POV

"Can.... Can I also... ask you for something.... " she asked

" Yeah sure" I said smiling.

I'm ready to give whatever she'll ask. Surbhi. Here I've given my heart to you...so I can give anything happily .

What she'll ask?

Really excited to know.

"Will... Will.. You... Play.." she said and stopped.

Why was she stammering so much. I looked at her. She was so nervous that she closed her eyes. She took a deep breath and then looked at me

"Mahir. Will you play Guitar for me " she asked

Mahir will you play guitar for me.

These words were just ringing in my ears. Guitar....which was once my heart... Which was broken badly by none other than my best friend.

" I'm sorry Mahir. I had no intentions of hurting you. I'm sorry I asked you for this. No need. You don't need to do this for me. I'm really an idiot. I ask something even without thinking. Sorry." she rambled

I stood up from there and went upward to my room.

But how can I play it again. I myself took that decision and promised myself that I'll never touch the guitar again. So how could I?

First time she asked me something and I'm...

The guitar whose strings were connected to my heart. The guitar which was my heart. You know whenever I was happy I used to play it.. Whenever I was sad I used to play it... But when my heart got away from me.. I was left with nothing. Since that day I left my soul away from me. I never played it again.

These were my words when I was telling every thing to Surbhi on that day at Cathedral.

Yeah the guitar whose strings were connected to my heart that I left many years ago...

But now your heart is connected with strings of another heart.

Surbhi's face came infront of me. Yeah.. My heart is connected with her.

Or I must say my heart is with her. Can I play guitar for her.

NO Mahir.

But why not yes Mahir!!

"Mahir." came her voice

"I'm sorry. I didn't" she whispered.

I know She's a very sensitive girl.

"Hey.. Hey surbhi. Why are you crying." I asked standing up from the couch.

"I'm sorry Mahir.. I.. I didn't Mean that. I'm sorry Mahir. You said that guitar strings were your heart... I... I just wanted to make your heart, beat those beats again... I want you to... To give Happiness. But.. I didn't know you'll feel bad" she sobbed

"Surbhi. Shh.. Who said you this. Why you just start assuming everything. " I said

" I'm sorry " she whispered still crying

This girl!!

"Okay. You go to living room I'm coming" I sighed

She didn't say anything. She just went out.

I smiled at myself. I know she's blaming herself right now for this.. But my dear Surbhi I promise soon you'll not blame yourself and will smile. I went to Di's room. There was the guitar. Di also used to play guitar sometimes so it was kept till now in the house.
