Was That Love?

Back to life

We were in the last few months of our Final year at school. Everything was the same but not me. I was no more the same confident and sharp-minded child of my parents which I used to be. I became a silent spectator with no happiness left. I even started scoring lesser in my exams. My feelings for everything died except for Priyank. I still loved him with all my heart and was waiting for him to come back. Kritika tried many times to convince me not to think of him and move on but she failed. At last, she also gave up on me. She knew that I was no more a sensible girl to talk to.

" Babes, have you checked out that latest song trending?"  Kritika asked while we were moving out of our school gate. "Which one?" I replied. " Tune mere Jana" Kritika told. "No, not yet. I don't find peace in listening to songs anymore" I said. "Well, you don't find peace in anything any more babes. You are just becoming a boring person slowly and gradually. You don't even come online on f*******: now. The last time you logged in was four months and 6 days back. Why Parthavi? Why are you punishing yourself like this.? stop doing this to yourself please." Kritika said in a worrying tone holding my hand. " Its nothing like that babes. I am good. Okay fine! tell me the song and I'll definitely listen to it today. I promise" I replied smiling at her. "Tune mere Jana by Rohan Rathore. They say that this boy from IIT  sung this song for a girl he loved just before dying from throat cancer.  And now he is no more. I will send you this song on f*******:, listen to it, I am sure you are going to love this song" Kritika said smiling back at me.

I came back home and after having a good nap I turned on my desktop to check out the song that Kritika had told me about. I felt so uneasy while logging in to f*******: because I still had that chat of mine and Priyank in the chat section. As I logged in, I could not believe my eyes to what they saw. Kritika's messages were flashing on the top and right after that was Priyank's message. My heartbeats increased and my hands were shivering while I opened the message. There were messages right from two moths back and till that day. the very first message stated, " I am sorry Parthavi for whatever I did to you. I ditched such a wonderful girl like you for a gold digger. She just used me and dumped me. Now I know how it feels when someone breaks your heart. I am very sorry Parthvai I was just taken away by the new surrounding and new people. I want to come back to you. Would you pardon me to accept me again?.". Tears started rolling down to my eyes as I moved to his second message which stated," I know I have hurt you a lot but please give me one more chance. I promise I will never do that again. I have realized that I will never get a girl like you again. You are very precious to me Parthavi. Please come back.". While the third one stated," At least reply with a yes or a no". There were few more messages saying sorry and asking for a reply

I instantly messaged Kritika telling her everything. She was online she read it. "What? Are you serious? Oh my god! I just can't believe that. I am happy that he realized his mistake and came back to you. At least now you won't die, hahaha! Just tell him that you miss him and still love him like before. And ya! congratulations sweetheart." Kritika replied. I smiled at her messages and then opened the chat of Priyank to reply to him back and I wrote " I knew you would come back to me one fine day. I never did wrong to anyone and so I believed that even God would also not let anything wrong to happen to me too. I still love you Priyank and was waiting for you to realize that too." and sent it to him.

"Thank god you replied. I love you too Parthavi. One more thing I have to tell you, I am coming back to you next month. I really want to see you. Will you meet me?" He replied instantly. 

'Of course, I will. Please come back soon. I am dying to see you. " I wrote back. " will be there for you soon. Now I got to go Bye. Love you" He said and went offline. After that day, I started smiling again, I was back to life with so much happiness and love. It seemed like I got a purpose to live my life again.

"If you break someone's heart and they still talk to you with the same excitement and respect, Believe me, they really love you"

And so did I. But now I wish that I rejected him that day and ended the story forever. I allowed him back into my life and gave him another chance of breaking me apart. Sometimes you need to sacrifice your own happiness and choose to do what is right. Because not everything that makes you happy is right.
