Is it over? (Few Shots) Part 2

Hey guys! Thank u sooooo much for all your comments!!!! U all made my day! Without wasting any time, let’s get into the second part:

*Back*

I walked into the classroom only to receive a lot of shocked face. Finally…. I was back! The whole class was silent for a minute to see me…. Well, why wouldn’t they? Who thought that I would come back?

The teacher finally exclaimed, breaking the silent atmosphere, “Anika! So good to see you again!

She pulled me into a warm hug while I smiled. Soon, everyone surrounded me yelling my name. They all seemed to be very excited to see me, especially my friends.

Victoria, one of my really good friends, just couldn’t control her excitement and hugged me tightly.

“Anika! I missed you so much!” She squealed. “Do you even remember me?”

“Nope. I don’t VICTORIA!” I said sarcastically. C’mon is that even a question to ask?

We both giggled. Then, I recognized the girl next to Victoria.

“Omg! I remember you! Vivian, right?” I asked the girl. She nodded and smiled. She wasn’t really my friend, but I used to talk to her sometimes.

Suddenly, I started to recognize everyone…. When I heard a voice from behind.

“Do you remember me?”

I instantly turned around only to see HIM. Shivaay. The guy who I had madly fallen in love with… yeah… I realized it after going away from him.

He walked towards me and again asked, “Do you remember me?” His voice was soft and delicate.

I stared into his deep blue eyes. Still mesmerizing as before.

“Yes, I do. I do remember you, Shivaay,” I told him with tears brimming in my eyes. How much had I missed him!

He hugged me tightly. Then he whispered something in my ear that made me shocked.

“I love you!”

I couldn’t believe my eyes. My heart started to jump in happiness. However, my happiness was short lived.

“I love you Tia!”

And the ground beneath me just slipped away.

Trinnnngggggggggggg!!! Trinnnnggggggggggg!!! Trinnnnnngggggggggg!!!

I bolt in my bed breathing heavily. Oh god! Not another dream! When are these dreams going to leave me?! It has been one and a half year since I left that place and HIM… actually no… I have never left HIM. My heart still holds onto to him and refuses to leave him no matter how many times I try to do so. Ugggggggghhhh!!! Why can’t I let him go????!!!! Because you love him! My heart screamed. Okkkkk…. But I am pretty sure that he doesn’t even remember me anymore! Then what am I doing by dreaming about him all the time?

I reminisced the dream I just had again. It was so…. weird? I mean I have had many dreams of Shivaay before… but I never had one where Shivaay proposed me. Oops correction. He didn’t propose me, but Tia. But where did Tia come from? I guess I still wonder if Shivaay is with Tia or not…. Errrrr!!! I am sooo crazy! Shivaay you have made me mad in your love!!!

 

5 months later…

“Aniiiiiiii!!!!!!” Mali screamed as soon as she saw me.

Yep! I am back in New York! But only for a week. Summer vacation was going on, so me and Gauri decided to visit New York for a week. And as soon as I landed here, the first place I decided to visit was Mali’s house while Gauri went to her friend’s house.

“I missed you so much Mali!” I told her as I took her in an embrace.

“Me too.”

She then invited me in. I took a quick look around her house. Everything was just the same as before.

“So…. how do you like my surprise?” I asked her after we settled on the couch with some juice.

She chuckled, making me confused. She then handed me two tickets. They were the tickets for Manhattan tour and they were booked for today. Then, the realization struck me.

“Wait so you knew about my arrival?” I gasped.

“Yep!” She said, “Your mom told me about your arrival a week before. She told me to make sure that you are safe and all.”

I rolled my eyes. Typical moms.

“Okkkkk…but who told you that I am going on that Manhattan tour?” I asked.

She giggled. “Well, the tickets are booked!” She said, making me sigh.

I am not a travelling kind of person. I just like to chill at home.

“Oh btw, at the end of the tour, we are going to cinema to watch a movie…” She suddenly informed me, making me excited.

I love movies!!!!

“Which one???” I asked acting like a little kid.

“Stars Wars: The last jedi!” She told me.

Gosh! I LOVE stars wars!

“I’m in!” I told her without in second thought, making her smile.

After a long tiring day, finally, we’re here in the cinema hall with popcorn and soda in our hands. The movie didn’t start yet, so me and Mali were just talking.

“Umm… Ani, I have to go to the bathroom. You just wait here.” She told me and left.

While, I relaxed on my chair and just looked at the big screen in front of me, waiting for the movie to start. Suddenly… I felt… something. I felt… kicks on my chair… Ugh! Don’t tell me that a little kid is sitting behind me! I waited for a few minutes for the kicks to stop, but it didn’t, making me very annoyed. So, I decided to confront the kid.

“Can you—” I turned around only to get a big shock. Blue eyes. Uh-oh.

Maybe it’s just another dream. Calm down Anika.

I turned back to face the screen, telling myself that I was dreaming. Suddenly, I felt a hand on my shoulder.

“Anika!” I heard from behind making my heart skip a beat. It’s his voice. No. No. No. I can’t face him. I just can’t.

I got up from my seat and walked, or you could say ran out of the hall. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I failed to stop them.

I met Mali as soon as I exit the hall.

“Ani, where are u going?” She asked in a concern voice. “And why are you crying?”

“Look, Mali. I have to go! Don’t wait for me… I will come after few hours. Don’t worry.” I said in a hurry.

“But what happ—”

I gave no chance to her to complete her sentence as I just ran out of there. I didn’t want to stay there even for a second. I just couldn’t!

I ran into the nearby park, which surprisingly happens to be the Central Park. It was quite dark, but I kept going in deeper and deeper. I stopped when I came to a lake.

I was quite far away from the city, although I could still see the tall buildings of NYC. I took off my shoes and dipped my feet in the cold water, helping me calm down. I sat down on the grass, the ground being a bit muddy, and looked at the city view. I sighed.

Five months! In these five months, I had finally started to get over him… Finally started to get over those endless dreams. Finally started to stop thinking about him all the time. Finally started to concentrate on my social life, leaving him behind. And when I was finally moving on, he just had to come back and ruin every single thing!

“WHY? WHY GOD? WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME?” I cried.

I heard the lyrics of “My heart will go on” from Titanic coming from far away.

“Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on”

It’s my favorite song… Someone must be playing it.

Distracting myself from him, I started tossing the stones into the water.

“Love can touch us one time”, I started singing along.

“And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we’re gone

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold you
In my life we’ll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on”

Suddenly, the music stopped. I frowned. It wasn’t over yet. Instead of music, I started to hear footsteps. I froze. I realized that I was in the central park at night, alone. And too in a secluded place. The footsteps started to get closer and closer. I gulped. I started to feel sweat building up on my forehead and hands.

All of sudden, the sound of footsteps stopped, and I could feel the person right behind me. But I was too scared to turn around. I just closed my eyes and waited for something to happen.

“Hey,” I heard the voice from behind and my eyes flung open in shock. I had instantly recognized the voice. It was HIM. Shivaay. Oh god! Why did I even come here?
