"Some Silences Never End"

Rivaya wanted to become a writer. But Ahaan? He just wanted to see her happy. But life doesn't always walk with love. One day Rivaya got a news — her parents were moving far away, another city, another life, a place where dreams were forgotten. She didn't cry that night. The next morning, Ahaan came to meet her with a smile, hope but Rivaya said nothing. Just a soft look and then she turned and walked away. Ahaan stood there, frozen, waiting for her to turn back but she was gone. Days passed, no message, no letter. People said, “ She moved on, forgot you and choose her family instead of you.” But Ahaan? He never believed those words because he remembered that silence, the one that held pain too big to speak, the one that said, “ I'm not leaving because I want to, I'm leaving because I've to.” One year passed. One evening Ahaan went to a cafe where he and Rivaya used to spend time with eachother. There he sat on the same place and ordered same coffee which Rivaya liked to drink. Suddenly his eyes went to a thing on the table. He saw an old notebook was there. He just ignored it and drank the coffee and went. Now it's been three years. One evening Ahaan suddenly looked through the window and saw the sky was clouding slowly and he thought it might be rain. He just opened the gate to some purpose and saw that same old notebook was outside his door. At this time he didn't ignore it and decided to open it. The cover was torn, but the writing inside — it was her. “ If I return as a drop of rain, don't open your umbrella, let me fall on you one last time .” Ahaan read that line again and again. His hands shook, heart screamed, but lips stayed quiet. Sometimes the person you wait for is also the one who teaches you how to live without them.
