I ask the stars if everything is going to be okay. I ask the stars and the dark night, "Where is your love?" I'd have to learn to stare at an empty sky if all the stars faded away. I'm looking for a piece of myself you didn't take, a piece of myself you didn't touch.

"Impressive...hmm you write as well? Boys too write stuff" Ginny spoke out opening Manpreet's diary.

"Who told to read my personal diary!" Manpreet exclaimed.

"I am officially your fiancé, your secrets are mine" Ginny added.

"Still it is personal, first ask before reading that" Manpreet warned.

"Okay...but you didn't reply .." Ginny uttered.

"Mahi and I used to write , she gave me this diary and habit of writing thoughts" Manpreet replied with a sigh.

"Ohh...you are now trying to move by writing break up stuff in a diary that your ex gifted" Ginny added with a smirk.

"Shut up" Manpreet shouted.

"I mean make a new diary" Ginny spoke taking a new diary out of her purse .

It was a leather black diary embibed with a metallic M of crystals.

"I don't need this" Manpreet made a face.

"New diary would make you feel better.Old pages can't write a new story" Ginny coined.

Manpreet looked with astonishment as he didn't expect a string of sensible wisdom sentences from her.

"I am ain't that bad,just we met at wrong timing and I fell for you" Ginny pressed her lips and her eyes teary.

"You were black mailing me" Manpreet spoke out.

"Yeah...I want what I love that's why . I am sorry" Ginny added.

"I am ain't a toy that you want to get .Leave me alone for God's sake" Mahira spoke out with a sigh.

"I won't force for marriage. You can be my friend in private and fiancé in public" Ginny put forth.

"Friends? I don't need a girl in my life" Manpreet spoke out.

"It's ok as you wish, I am there for you" Ginny spoke genuinely.

"You did your gamble now don't act good" Manpreet grunted.

"I am ain't a fiction vamp . I know what you go through" Ginny spoke out angrily.

"Shut up, you bloody don't know what I go through" Manpreet shouted.

"I slept with a man for 8 almost years and left me ,he got bored .Married a blonde like him" Ginny spoke out teary-eyed.

"What? Were you married?" Manpreet asked shocked.

"Met him in high school , we started with a hook up, it turned into relationship. My father hated indo foreign marriage. We kept it secret. He asked me for start live in ,for the promise for marrying me .That fucking one day never came" Ginny spoke out crying.

"8 years ! Ginny are you serious....he was fooling you for years" Manpreet spoke out with empathy.

I was naive ,innocent and madly in love with him.If had asked me to die ,I would have died without a second question. Love makes people mad.

badal gaya bhala kyun jahaan tera
yahaan wahaan har or se ghira
khatam huaa akal ka safar tera

why did your world change?
you are surrounded from all sides.
Your journey of brains is over.

sambhal zara sunsaan raastaa
zeher bhara aadmi bhaTak raha
bhaag kahaan niklega ye bata

Be careful, it's a deserted path.
Man, full of poison, is lurking here.
Tell me where you'll run away.

Manpreet hummed his song .

"khatam huaa akal ka safar tera? Manu you mean love means madness hehehe"
Mahira giggled.

"Don't you think you are badly in love with me?" Manpreet smiled.

"Naah" Mahira smirked.

"Really?" Manpreet kissed nape.

"Get away" Mahira spoke out slyly.

"When my touch can make you lose senses then why won't my love make you mad? Atleast I am in love madly" Manpreet remarked.

"Manu? What happened? What are you thinking?" Ginny swiped fingers.

"Hmm...you okay ?" Manpreet asked.

"I am fine. You take care, break ups hurt" Ginny added.

"Break up ? What is it even a break up? Did I get a reason!" Manpreet thought internally.

"Hey let's get coffee" Ayaan texted .

"I am not free" Mahira lied .

"Sitting at your window idle, how busy you are ?" Ayaan replied.

Mahira's eye popped as she looked out of the window. There stood a black Mercedes and Ayaan leaned by his car and looked at the window where Mahira sat on her swing.

"I have some work" Mahira lied.

"I took permission from your father ,now come down or I have come to your room" Ayaan spoke in rather unusual gentle tone.

"What's the drama!" Mahira sat next to him.

"It's called a date not a drama" Ayaan responsed.

"Stop acting like a some good boy" Mahira replied.

"Oh did I give good boy vibes" Ayaan chuckled.

Mahira stared him.

"Bad boys can get good girls" Ayaan spoke out.

"You are asshole ,you deserve nothing .Alcoholic ...womanizer " Mahira vented her anger.

"Womanizer? I loved only one" Ayaan replied.

"Girlfriends?" Mahira rose her brow.

"Already acting like a fiancé" Ayaan chuckled seeing Mahira making her short nose flare.

"No way!" Mahira spat back.

"Okay....so give back that ring" Ayaan spoke out.

"What?" Mahira sat straight.

"Joking, I won't take it back even if it does not work. All the Girlfriends took such gifts" Ayaan sighed.

"I am not your girlfriend" Mahira scowled.

"Then who you are to me?" Ayaan asked.

Mahira felt silent.

"Let it be...ice cream?" Ayaan asked.

"It's raining" Mahira shrugged.

"Ice cream in rains is superb" Ayaan spoke and bought ice cream cones.

"There is some on your lip" Ayaan offered a tissue.

"Done?" Mahira spoke.

"No,let me do it" Ayaan cleaned it with a tissue.

                    ˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚＊·̩̩̥͙

"I will ask her the reason" Manpreet drove by the road .

His eyes fell on familiar face and his heart dropped into his stomach.

There stood Mahira eating ice cream with a man.

"Did she forget me this soon? I too will smile like she is doing right now " Manpreet clenched his wrist taking the next signal although he wanted to see her once again but his mind won and his eyes didn't back not even for once.
