UNREQUITED LOVE-THE UNSTRECHED STRINGS OF TWO HEARTS ??

57. MY HOME.

Rachit: I'm sorry Shehnaaz.
Sana: Rachit enough yaar, You expressing your feelings was your take and did you tried forcing me to accept them?

Rachit: How would I Shehnaaz, you are a friend to me much before than I fell in love with you, and I can't force my own friend for loving me when she already loves someone.

Sana: then it's sorted rachit, you were never at fault here, having feelings is normal but how do you accept it, is what that matters.

Rachit: So we are still friends right?

Sana: Only if you promise to stop loving me.

I said in a stoic voice just for having fun but I think I shouldn't have done it seeing his face loosing all colours.

Sana: I'm sorry I didn't meant it way, it was just a joke Rachit, and about being friends obviously we still are.

I said scared of what his reaction would be after all this, but he laughed on my scared face, like he legit laughed when I felt myself tensing up on his heart break.

Rachit: My God, Sanu just look at you, I was acting yaar, do u think only you can go of up around ne, ye talent toh mujhme bhi hai.

He said still laughing and I relaxed and smiled at him.

Rachit: Nothing would change in our friendship right?

I heard him say and I knew he wasn't joking this time, so I wouldn't too....

Sana: it won't, you were, are and will be a true friend Rachit.

Rachit: Thank you, you don't even know how much guilty I felt when I confessed my love even after knowing you love someone deeply, it felt as in I'm trying to break something apart... But trust me Shehnaaz mera vaisa koi intention nhi tha, I was just not in my sense that night in Sidharth's home.

Sana: It's ok Rachit, and trust me it was actually the best decision you took, otherwise it would have killed you from inside.

Rachit: How can you be such Shehnaaz? What if it actually caused some issues in your life? I should have not come in the talks of that Aryan, I should have not

Aryan? I wondered what does he wants? Why can't he let us live peacefully. First he helped Kiran, then he planned Shanaya's Accident and now he did this, I really hate myself for thinking him to be my friend once, Sidharth was so right.

Sana: It's alright Rachit, about you drinking for confessing that I really don't appreciate it, you could have come in a sober state because it just harmed your health, about any sort of difference between me and Sidharth, I think we are not in that phase of our relationship that someone being in love with me or him would really affect us, we are over that a long time back.

And I saw his features changing from guilty to relaxed and at last being shocked. And then I realized I took Sidharth's name. He didn't knew whom I love and seeing him I know he is shocked.

Rachit: Sidharth?

Sana: Yeah The same Sidharth who was your project partner.

Rachit: My God and I said I love you in front of him..... Fuck..... He must have hated me in that moment right.....

Sana: Relax Rachit, nothing of that happened, he don't hate you in fact he has all respect for you for taking care of me even after knowing I don't love you.

Rachit: he is a lucky man Shehnaaz.
Sana: Indeed he is but I am more lucky in that reference.
So I hope we are normal?

Rachit: Only if you forgive me.
