Hello Everyone. Chapter 29 Always be the light in someones dark world !! Karthik’s POV. Naksh and Keerti are still sleeping when we leave the hotel for the mental asylum where Alia is admitted. We had looked up the address yesterday and everyone we asked knew where it was. Naira and I have hardly talked since morning. We are a little unsure of what we’ll say to Alia. Not only that; we don’t know what to expect. According to his notes, Alia doesn’t talk or understand anybody other than her brother. She talks through her smiles, which only Virat understood.…

Hello Everyone. Chapter 28 Because when you love someone, you learn to be happy in other person’s happiness. 4 December 2015 When you see the person you love move away from you, what do you do ?!! Do you panic ?!! Or do you keep loving and hope that things will be just like they were before ?!! My heart sank when our train reached the railway station in Bangalore in the evening that day. Ranbir had come to pick us up. I looked away when I saw them hug. He took us to our accommodation, which is in the…

Hello Everyone. Chapter 27 Naira – The Sherni !! Karthik’s POV. The next morning, we leave early. Keerti is still sleepy, so she sleeps in the back seat, while Naksh drives the rented motorcycle alongside our car. It’s a 1987 Harley Davidson, collector’s edition, and it looks ragingly hot. The engine makes more noise than an airplane’s turbine and it looks powerful and imposing. Too bad, I would never get to drive it. My parents have always been paranoid about two-wheelers. They never let me even pillion-ride one, let alone ride it. They used to tell me ghastly stories about…

Hello Everyone. Chapter 26 Friends in need are Friends indeed. Karthik’s POV. We’ve been sleeping for long when my sleep is broken by the heavy beating on the door. “Kholo !!” The voice says from the other side. Once. Twice. The voice keeps getting louder. I wake up Naira. She hears it too. The bangs on the door keep getting heavier and more determined. We get up. I am a little scared, but Naira is not. She checks her face in the mirror coolly. I hold her hand as she walks to the door and shouts, “Kaun ?!!” “POLICE !!”…

Hello Everyone. Chapter 25 If I had only known. Karthik’s POV. I find us packing our stuff as soon as we get to the hotel. The adrenaline is getting to us. We are finally getting somewhere. Though the thought of Virat’s crippled sister saddens us. But at least we have a name. Virat Kohli. That’s a start. I am sure we will be at Anushka’s doorstep soon. “Are we leaving already ?!!” I ask. “It’s a nice city. Can we rest a while ?!! Have a few walks along the city lanes ?!! Nice dinner ?!!” I ask. “Karthik.” Naira…

Hello Everyone. Chapter 24 Because her happiness is what matters !! Karthik’s POV. “Mumbai ?!!” I ask Naira. “Gandhinagar first.” she says. “And we don’t have to call him the dead guy any more.” She adds. “Yes. Virat sounds much better.” I say. Naira has a heart as big as anyone you can imagine. Her office project is lagging behind and she is getting a little restless with the road trip. She has to get back to office, but I know she wouldn’t do that before she meets Alia. I can tell that she really wants to meet her. Gandhinagar…

Hello Everyone. Chapter 23 Best Friends are a blessing !! Karthik’s POV. I can see that Naira is more curious than I am about meeting Mahi. We stand outside the office he works in, holding his business card. We are about to know the name of the guy whose initials are etched on the diary. Needless to say, I am freaking excited. It’s a smallish office, and I see the designation—‘Design Engineer’—on the card. I hope he isn’t busy and gives us time. After all, we have some bad news to give him. His best friend from school is dead.…

Hello Everyone. Chapter 22 When Karthik cant take his eyes off Naira !! Karthik’s POV. It’s becoming embarrassing now. I can’t take my eyes off my own girlfriend, the girl I’ve been dating for five years. My jaw had dropped the moment I’d seen her walk out of the hotel door and I have not returned to normal yet. I thank Naksh for it. Naira and I have been driving for the past six hours and it is the best drive ever. I liked her anyway but I like the new her more. But it’s bothering me. She does not…

Hello Everyone. Chapter 21 Because the past always messes up with the present and future. 8 November 2015 Why should it matter if someone else touched her in the past ?!! Does it hurt because she has been violated and is impure ?!! Or does it hurt because she was in love with someone other than me ?!! For me, it’s the latter. There must be a bond greater than friendship between us that made Anushka talk about her previous relationships today. Anushka’s voice quivered as she told me about the guy, her best friend in school, whom she had…
