Armaan looked Diya and smiled . Diya was confused
Diya : Sir it’s been an hour we are sitting here ….You said you have to tell something personal to me…..What’s the matter ?
Armaan ; Actually I don’t know how to present it ..Mmhh…Diya let’s eat something..
Diya : Sir already we both had our sandwiches and juices….
Armaan ; Fine then let’s have coffee.
Diya ; But just now we had our juice…..What’s troubling you Sir ?
Armaan : Diya I am sorry …But I am not prepeared yet to tell it..
Diya : I didn’t get you Sir….
Armaan : Nothing…
Diya : So shall I go to my home ?
Armaan ; Yeah sure… Bye.
Diya :Bye Sir…
Armaan went near the parking area…
Armaan ; Diya actually my car is not working…..Driver has taken it to workshop…..So will you please drop me ?
Diya : Sure Sir…But Sir you don’t have a habit of travelling in two wheelers.
Armaan : There is nothing like that….During college days I used to ride bike…It’s fun….Shall I ride the bike,please ?
Diya : Okay…
Diya sits behind him in the bike and wears helmet …
Armaan was feeling an unknown kind of pleasure in his mind as Diya was sitting closer with him…He also puts the helmet..Their journey got started
When they reached near Diya’s home Diya get down and said : Sir you can take this scooty to your home…..I mean your car is under service…So until you gets your car back you can use my scooty…
Armaan ; No thanks….Actually I lied only….My car doesn’t have any damage…
Diya ; But why ?
Armaan : I wish to travel with you in your scooty so that I could feel you as closer with me….I always love to spend time with you ..I like you Diya and I always felt you as very special….This is what I was trying to say but…
Diya didn’t tells anything and turns her face
Diya sits in the side bench ….Her eye sight were down. Armaan notices it
Armaan : Why you won’t look me Diya ?
Diya : I forgot meri nazrein hamesha jhuki jhuki see honi chahiye….After meeting you my eyes started looking up a lot and it’s not right…..
Armaan ; Diya ….What does it mean ?
Diya : Travelling in scooty and travelling with me in life both are different ….Before you keep any hopes and dreams I need to break it….
Armaan : Diya!!!
Diya ; Sorry Sir…..I didn’t felt anything as special in you and better you also don’t keep any expectations….
Armaan ; If you didn’t feel anything you should tell it directly by looking in my eyes with courage Diya…..Yeh jhuki jhuki nazrein mujhse dekha nahin jaata…Don’t know why I also feel that at the corner of your heart may be you also feels something for me …..But you are not expressing it and I don’t know what is stopping you from doing it….
Diya ; There is nothing like that…You may please leave Sir
Armaan ; So now you even don’t want to see my face…..Isn’t it ? Fine I am leaving..But Diya just one thing nazrein puri duniya ke saamne jhuki jhuki rahegi par kya apne aap se jhuki jhuki rehti hein ? Ek baar zaroor apne dil se poochna ….Good bye and thank you for the lift…
Armaan walks away …..Diya cries painfully
To be continued….
AN ; I dedicate this to my dearest friend Sivabarghavi who suggested me to write on Diya Armaan on the basis of old Kannada movie Olavina Belakku which was originally acted by veteran actors Shankar Nag and Manjula .
