"Sana!" Sid called her and she looked at him.

She immediately wiped her tears and said, "Chala jaa yaaha se Sid."

"I know tu mujhse gussa hai. Lekin please ek baar meri baat sun le......"

"Ab sun ne ko bacha hi kya hai Sid? Itne dino se tu mera use kar raha tha, mujhse jhuti dosti ka natak kar raha tha aur main samajh baithi ki tu mujhse........ Kyu kiya tune aisa? Tujhe Rashmi ko paa ne ke liye meri help chahiye thi nah? Tu ek baar kehta mujhse. Main waise bhi teri help kar deti. Meri feelings ke saath khelne ki kya zaroorat thi?" Sana said and again started crying.

Sid felt bad seeing tears in Sana's eyes. He blamed himself for her this condition. He sat beside Sana and hold her hand.

Sana immediately removed her hand and said, "Don't touch me!"

Sid got hurt.

"I know Sana maine bohut badi galti ki hai. Yeh sach hai ki maine tujhse dosti apne fayde ke liye ki thi. But day by day I got very much attached to you. Mujhe paata bhi nahi chala yeh kaise ho gaya. Ab tu meri bohut acchi dost ban chuki hai. Aur main tujhe khona nahi chahta. I can't lose our friendship."

"Kis dosti ki baat kar raha hai tu?" Sana asked.

"Woh dosti jiski suruwaad jhut ke buniyad par hui thi? Waisi dosti mere liye koi maine nahi rakhti. Aaj se humari dosti khatam."

Sid became shocked. Teardrops escaped his eyes. He felt a sharp pain in his heart.

"Yeh tu kya keh rahi hai? No no, I can't let this happen. Maine galti ki hai nah? Tu mujhe uski saaza de. Chahe toh mujhe maar le. Lekin dosti tod ne ki baat mat kar. Main woh handle nahi kar paunga."

"Kya fark padhta hai Sid? Yeh sab toh tere liye bas ek natak tha nah? Rashmi ko dikhane ke liye? Mil gayi tujhe Rashmi? Now please leave me. Mujhse aur nahi hoga yeh sab. Thak chuki hoon main."

"Sab kuch natak nahi tha. Suru mein main bhale hi acting kar raha tha lekin baad mein jo bhi moments hum ne saath mein spend kiye hai, woh sab real the. Aur woh meri life ke best moments the. Trust me......"

"Trust?" Sana gave a sarcastic smile and said, "Khud se bhi zyada trust kiya tha maine tujh par. Lekin tune kya kiya? Tune yeh prove kar diya ki main kitni stupid hoon. Kitni badi galti ki tujhse dosti rakh ke, kitni badi galti ki tujhse...... tujhse pyaar kar ke."

As soon as Sana confessed her love, Sid saw a ray of hope. He already knew that Sana loved him but after she confessed Sid thought there was a chance that Sana might forgive him.

"Lekin ab aur nahi. Main tujh par doobara trust nahi kar sakti. I regret trusting you, I regret being friends with you, I regret loving you, I regret everything."

Sid's heart ached hearing that. Suddenly he got angry and said, "Dekh Sana, ab na tera zyada ho raha hai. Tu behave toh aise kar rahi hai jaise maine tujhe cheat kiya ho. Remember, we were never in a relationship. I was not committed to you....."

Sid suddenly stopped after realising what he said.

"Yeah. You are right! Tune toh kabhi mujhse koi commitment kiya hi nahi. Bohut sahi game khela tune. It was my fault that I had feelings for you. You had nothing to do with it. Sahi hai. Tera kaam toh ho gaya. Tu na abhi Rashmi ke paas jaa. I don't want to see your face."

"Sana....."

"Just go!" Sana shouted.

Sid wiped his tears and stood up. Then he left from there.

"Itni asaani se tune yeh dosti tod di. Ek baar bhi nahi socha ki mujhe kaisa feel hoga. Thik hai phir. Ab main bhi Rashmi ke proposal ko accept kar lunga. Jab tujhe mujhse friendship rakh ni hi nahi hai, tab main kyu tere liye apna pyaar sacrifice karu?" Sid said in his mind before leaving.

While going to the classroom, Sid met Rashmi.

"Sid, I have something to tell you. Actually I....." Rashmi said.

Sid didn't let her complete and said, "I know Rashmi what you want to tell. Lekin kuch chize ladko ko hi pehle kehna chahiye. Rashmi, I......I love you. Will you be my girlfriend?"

Rashmi became excited and said, "Of course I will be your girlfriend. I love you too Sid."

"And sorry maine pehle tujhse rudely baat kiya. Jab tune mujhse baat karna band kar diya tab jaa ke mujhe realise hua ki main tujhse kitna pyaar karti hoon." She added further.

"It's ok baby. I have already forgiven you for that."

Suddenly Rashmi hugged Sid and said, "I love you so much."

Sid was taken aback at her sudden move. He tried to hug her back but couldn't. He kept standing there like a statue.

"Finally I got what I wanted." Rashmi said in her mind and smirked.
______________________________________

As the first period started, every student settled to their benches.

As usual Sid was going to sit beside Sana but Rashmi hold his hand and said, "Abhi bhi tu waha baithega? Baby, let's sit together."

Sid nodded and sat next to Rashmi. Everybody became confused after Sid changed his place. It was more shocking that Sid was sitting with Rashmi.

Seeing the sight, Sana's heart broke.

"Wow Sid! Tune kitni zaldi apni jagah badal li. Lagta hai tujhe tera pyaar mil gaya. Yeh hi toh chahta tha na tu? Tu khush rahe Rashmi ke saath. Ab tujhe meri koi zaroorat nahi hai. After all tera problem jo solve ho gaya. Accha hai. Ab main bhi tujhse bohut dur ho jaungi. Humesha humesha ke liye." Sana said in her mind.

Though Sid was sitting with Rashmi, he stared at Sana. Soon their eyes met. Sana immediately took off her eyes.

"Tune hi toh humari dosti khatam kar di thi nah? Tu hi toh chahti thi ki main tujhse dur rahu. Thik hai, ab se yeh hi hoga. Main pura din Rashmi ke saath hi rahunga. I hope tujhe uss se koi fark nahi padega. Tune toh sab kuch khatam hi kar diya hai." Sid said in his mind.

Shivangi noticed everything and asked, "Sid aaj iss chudail ke saath kyu baitha hai? Kuch hua hai kya?"

"I don't know." Sana said.

"Tu toh Sid ke confess karne wali thi nah? Phir suddenly yeh kya hua?"

Sana didn't reply. Before Shivangi could ask her more questions, the teacher entered the class.

After the school ended, Shivangi tried to ask Sana about the matter many times but she avoided the topic. Shivangi became very curious and she decided to find out everything.

In the evening...

Sana was studying in her room to divert her mind but all the time the sight of Sid and Rashmi sitting together was roaming around her mind.

"What am I doing? Main kyu uss insaan ke baare mein soch rahi hoon jisse meri feelings ki koi kadar hi nahi hai? Nahi sochna mujhe uske baare mein, kuch nahi sochna." Sana said in her mind and threw her pen out of frustration.

Then she closed her books and started crying. At that time, Shivangi entered the room and saw Sana in that condition.

She immediately took her phone and showed a pic to Sana.

"What the fuck is this Sana?" She asked.

Sana took the phone and looked at the photo. Tears started flowing from her eyes.

"Rashmi ne instagram pe post ki thi. Date pe gaye the dono. Aur caption dekh, 'Date with my bf❤️'. Can you please explain it?" Shivangi said.

Sana couldn't say anything. She sat on the bed and started crying. Shivangi sat beside her and wiped her tears.

"What happened Sana? Baata na mujhe. Sid toh tujhse pyaar karta hai nah? Phir yeh sab kya hai?" Shivangi asked.

"Nahi....karta.....Woh pyaar..... mujhse.....He....Used me....." Sana said. Her voice was breaking due to crying.

Sana explained everything to Shivangi. Shivangi became shocked as well as angry.

"Woh Sid itna bada kamina niklega, maine socha bhi nahi tha. How could he do this to you? Such a fraud!" Shivangi said angrily.

"Nahi Shivangi. Uski koi galti nahi hai. Galti meri hai. Main bohut stupid hoon. Usne toh bas fayda uthaya hai meri stupidity ka."

Shivangi cupped her face and said, "No dear. You are not stupid. You are just way too innocent. Aur iss mein teri koi galti nahi hai. Tune bas pyaar kiya tha uss se."

"Yeh hi toh meri zindagi ki sabse badi galti thi ki maine pyaar kiya tha uss se. I hate the feeling now. I hate the word 'Love'. It only gives pain. Kuch nahi haasil hota iss se. Yeh bas hum se humari haasi, khushi, sukh, chain sab kuch cheen leta hai."

"I HATE IT!" Sana screamed.

Shivangi felt bad for Sana.

"You have to be strong Sana. Tu aise weak nahi padh sakti." Shivangi said.

"Kis ne kaha main weak padhungi? Main sambhal lungi khud ko. Humesha ke liye main bhula dungi Sid ko. Ab mere dil mein uske liye koi jagah nahi hai, koi feelings nahi hai, Kuch nahi." Sana said.

Then she closed her eyes. All the moments, she spent with Sid, came in front of her eyes. Teardrops started coming out of her eyes.

Maine ishq kiya tujhe soneya,

Tune di hai judai ve,

Maine di hai tujhey duniya ve,

Tune di hai tanhai ve,

Tune dard diye hain itne,

Ambar pe sitare jitne,

Jag-jag'ke raaton mein,

Meri tarah aankhon mein,

Mahi aansuon ke dhaage tu piroyega,

Tu bhi royega mahi, tu bhi royega,

Meri tarah tu bhi, ik din kisi ko khoyega,

Tu bhee royega mahi, tu bhee royega,

Meri tarah tu bhi, ik din kisee ko khoyega.

Tune chhod diya yoon tanha,

Jaise waqt se bichhda lamha,

mahi ve! Mahi ve!

Maahi ve!

Dekhi teri khudgarzi, ik chali na meri marzi,

Mahi ve! Mahi ve! Mahi ve!

Main hoke rahi bas teri,

Tune kadar nahin ki meri,

Jag jag ke raaton mein,

Meri tarah aankhon mein,

Mahi aansuon ke dhage tu piroyega,

Tu bhi royega mahi, tu bhi royega,

Meri tarah tu bhi, ik din kisi ko khoyega

Tu bhi royega mahi, tu bhi royega,

Meri tarah tu bhi, ik din kisi ko khoyega.
