AVNEIL FF: LOVE chapter 5

chapter 5
Avni woken up at night. Her forehead covered all in sweat. She tried to calm down her beating heart and realised she was in her room.

Neela woke up who was sitting on a chair in Avni room. She looked at avni and knew she had the same dream again.she got up and sat next to her

Neela: bacha here drink some Water.

Avni: mama u here she said wiping her face.

Neela: daya ma told me how she saw u in the garden during the party. She said cupping Avni cheeks who smiled at her a little

Avni: im ok mama. Neela knew her daughter was strong to face everything but also knew that The incident happened years ago always made her weak and that was one of the reason for her to move away from the metha house with Avni and aman

Neela: I’m your mama bacha don’t lie to me. Avni placed her head on Neela lap. Neela knew Avni would be crying from inside but from outside she won’t show it.

Avni: mama?

Neela: hmm?

Avni: can u sleep with me tonight.

Neela: of course bacha that y I am here. Sleep now she said caressing Avni hair who was slowly falling asleep.

Nanno saw this from outside and wiped away few tears. Neela saw nanno going but she wanted to make sure Avni is in a deep sleep before leaving the room

Nanno was caressing Ayesha picture.

Neela: maa. Neela came and sat down next to her.

Nanno: moi Avni hasn’t forgotten that incident Neela. Ayesha death is still a fresh memory in her life.

Neela: she hasn’t maa but I know one day our Avni will pour her heart out. I am not saying she won’t remember Ayesha ji death as that won’t go away but I’m sure one day these nightmares will stop when someone start giving her endless amount of love.

Nanno: do u even think Avni will ever agree to get married because she believes there is no love for her a she doesn’t deserve it. Ashish words stung her so badly that she started believing nobody can love her

Neela: she will ma. My bacha deserve a better life. I won’t let her live a life like me. Nanno squeezed Neela hand and gave her a small smile.

Next morning

At the khanna mansion Neil came back after jogging. And went and joined everyone for breakfast.

Bebe: yesterday’s party was actually good…Mentioning about yesterday party Neil got an image of Avni but shook it of

Shweta: of courses Bebe. Even Tillu enjoyed a lot she said remembering seen him and avni dancing together.

Neil: mom obliviously I will enjoy after all I was with my friends.

Shweta:U means new friend

Prakash: what do u mean shweta ji

Shweta: what I mean is Neil was enjoying dancing’s with his new friend Avni She said giving a big smile

Neil : mom u r just overthinking that was a dancing game. If I was dancing with a guy would u say the same thing he said now smiling seen shweta smile drop

Shweta: Tillu.

Neil: mom what u r thinking is not true so just stop your thoughts over there. Anyway I have to go and meet Ali at the cafe he said finishing of his drink and left

Bebe: shweta y did u have to say that.

Shweta: but it’s true Bebe. I means when I was walking past Avni and Neil they were both looking into each other’s eyes as if they r in love

Prakash: shweta ji u do know that our Neil has only loved one girl and it’s only Juhi so how would he fall in love with someone quickly

Shweta: Prakash ji love doesn’t come with an invitation it just happens.

Bebe: shweta is right but shweta u shouldn’t have just jumped and asked Neil straight away like that. U should have waited to see if anything else happens between them. Sometimes what our eyes see is not true. Prakash nodded while Shweta looked disappointed.

At Neela house Avni slowly opened her eyes.

Avni: oh god I’m late today… she decided to call Ali

Ali: hey Avni what’s up .

Avni : Ali sorry I’m going to be late again today.

Ali : chill yaar y r u taking tension u take your time and come

Avni: don’t worry I will be there soon bye. Avni quickly went to freshen up. so she could reach to the cafe.

Meanwhile at the cafe Neil had come. Ali who was taking a customer’s order saw Neil. He told one of the waiter to take the order and went to Neil

Ali: my cop friend. He said forwarding his hand and both hugged after.

Neil: yaar today I felt like having your poha and my usual coffee

Ali: of course mere bhai I will just order it and come till then u sit. Neil sat down. After few mins Ali came

Ali: raja keep the accounts file on the counter Avni will come and see it. He said to one of the worker who went past.

Neil: so u and avni started this cafe together.

Ali: haan yaar opening a cafe was our dream since childhood. We use to spend our time over here when we were young.

Neil: Ali can I ask u something.

Ali l: of course Neil u r my best friend.

Neil: y does miss ajooba always stay serious.

Ali: miss ajooba?

Neil: I mean Avni. Ali smirked.

Ali: maybe because your meeting with her didn’t go well.

Neil: that is one of the reasons Ali but I don’t know there is some sadness in her. She smiles but it doesn’t reach her eyes she is like a mystery.

Ali: u already started observing her so closely. Neil was surprised he didn’t know what to say.

Neil: it’s nothing like that yaar. It’s just that I have seen her like that few times.

Ali: she had gone through a lot Neil. Avni was so lively but an incident changed her forever she smiles only for everyone sake but inside her heart is paining a lot. Neil felt something weird he didn’t know y he was feeling so bad

Neil: y?

Ali: I would tell u Neil but avni doesn’t like it when I would tell someone about her person life. U r a stranger for Avni Neil so she wouldn’t like it if I told u. But if Avni does become your friend in the future then maybe she might tell u if u ask.

Neil: it’s ok Ali don’t feel bad. I was just a little curious to know. For some reason Neil felt like looking towards the cafe entrance and when he did he saw Avni walking in after few mins busy looking at something on her phone.

Ali who was talking to Neil saw him not paying attention and when he follows Neil gaze he saw Avni and a naughty smile came on his face

Ali: hi Avni he shouted loudly which made Neil come back to reality

Avni looked up and smiled at her friend while gave an annoying look seen Neil. She went up to them

Ali: what happened y were u late again.

Avni: woke up late Ali. By the way what happened r police officers on strike today she said indirectly to Neil. Neil sat back and looked at avni.

Neil: nope police officers r never on strike they r always on time be it on duty or of duty . But some people don’t seem to reach anywhere on time…He said taunting her. Avni glared at him

Ali gave a *keep it gong look*

Avni: at least I do make it to work.. but police officers u call then now and they come after two hours

Neil: not all police officers r the same there are loyal police officers who make it on time he said smirking. Which was annoying Avni she left from there and went to the counter to see the accountant book and got herself engrossed in that

Ali: there is something between u two. Neil stopped smirking and looking at Ali

Neil: there is nothing we just don’t get along that’s about it.

Ali: say whatever u want to but I can see it dost.

Neil: Ali I have aonly given one girl my heart and that’s only Juhi. It’s not easy when your loved one dies right in front of your eyes

Ali: Neil. I understand what u r going through but u have to move on one day

Neil: tell me one thing Ali will u be able to stop loving Riya.

Ali: no. He said straight away Neil smiled slightly.

Neil: then how can i stop loving a girl who I have loved for so many years. Anyways chal I will leave as I promised Bebe that I will spend some time with her.

Ali: ok bye and enjoy your date with your Bebe.

Neil l: bye he got up to leave. He was about to turn around when his gaze caught Avni who was engrossed in sorting out the accounts.

Ali: *ahem ahem* he didn’t miss how Neil was looking at avni with a small smile.

Neil: bye.

Ali went to avni she looked at him

Avni: tell me one thing

Ali: what?

Avni when did he become your best friend and I never saw him coming to the caf before

Ali: avni remember two years ago I went on a camping in Shimla that’s where I met neil and I got to know he is a police officer. We started sharing things he told me stuff about him and I told him about my life those two month made out friendship strong and we became best friends. During that time I got to know he is Shweta aunty son when he showed me her pic but I forgot to tell u every time. but y r u asking? (made it up don’t know if there is any camping that goes on in Shimla)

Avni: I told u na never saw him here before or never heard u talk about him but I guess u will forget as u r always busy with work and mostly romancing with riya.

Ali: avni…not true anyways I will go and get other files he said going inside the cabin

Neil reached home around 12 in the afternoon.

Neil:Bebe! Bebe! He shouted as he didn’t find her in the living room Bebe and shweta were in the garden and came inside.

Bebe: kya hain Tillu y r u shouting.

Neil: I didn’t see u over here so that’s y he said giving a cute smile

Bebe : so u didn’t think of checking the bedroom or garden

Suweta: u forget to say kitchens. Bebe glared at her

Bebe: haan u would only want me to be there so that I can cook for you

Shweta: Bebe I didn’t means that

Bebe: I know what u actually mean.
Neil closed his eyes thinking things can’t change between these two. Shweta was about to say something when Neil interrupted

Neil: my two beautiful ladies. When u both argue u look cute but when u both don’t argue then u look even more cuter so please for my sake stop. He said making a puppy’s face.

Bebe: anything for u my Tillu.

Neil: so shall we go

Bebe: but where ?

Neil: remember I promised I will spend some time with u. So I have planned to take u out

Bebe: My Tillu is so caring unlike some people she said looking at shweta who just smiled at her.

Neil: Bebe u go and get changed till then.

Bebe: ok. Bebe went while shweta made a sad face

Shweta: not fairs Tillu. U take Bebe out but not your mom.

Neil:. Mom I promise I will take u out next time besides Bebe came here after a long time that’s y I’m taking her out. He said putting his hands around her shoulder

Shweta: u know whenever I get to know Bebe is coming I know I have to be prepared for all the taunts that’s going to come to me

Neil: mom Bebe is not bad. Shweta smacked his hand that was on her shoulder

Shweta: Tillu let me finish. So where was I oh yes I have to be prepared when Bebe come but do u know one good thing that happens when Bebe comes?

Neil: kya?

Bebe: oye Madonna chal even u come with us. Otherwise if u get bored at home then u will start moaning saying nobody takes u out.

Shweta: no Bebe it’s ok u go Neil has promised to spend some times with u.
