🍁"You Are My Never Ending Thought"🍁

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kabir's P.O.V.

"Thank you so much for your love guys. We appreciate you all came and give us your time. Have a great night. Good night. Love ya", Jay gave the closing statement and the whole crowd cheered. I could literally hear them shouting 'AAHIR', 'AAHIR', again and again.

This one for you Spooky, my heart whispered!!

After waving, passing flying kisses to our fans, we walked backstage. We met some popular VIPs who came especially to meet us and had a bit of chat with us. I was literally in no mood to talk to anyone because I wanted to think about the girl I met yesterday. She looked like Aashi and I can't sit calmly after knowing the fact that a girl looking exactly like my Spooky is walking on the streets of New York. How can she resemble her so much? Oh my god, she's not getting out of my mind.

She looked like Aashi but that girl is just the exact opposite of Aashi. Why is her name Aashi then? Who was she? I want to know about her at any cost. I can't rest until and unless I'll get her whole history. But where should I start? Where am I supposed to find her? What am I gonna do? I'm so Clueless.

Once the torture of faking smiles and the boring long conversation was over, we walked to our vanity and get dressed in casuals. It was night also but unlike yesterday I had a girl in my mind. Jay and Dhruv started packing their suitcases once we're back to the hotel. I didn't pack. I'll stay.

It was eleven at night and both of them were ready to leave for catching their flights. Jay looked at me and asked, "Are you sure about your decision?".

"Yes", I replied.

"Despite knowing the fact that she's just an identical looking girl like Aashi", Dhruv said.

"And that she's a trouble. She swears, she fights back. Dude, she can never ever be Aashi. That girl is a wild cat", Jay said.

"Also, do you even know where to find her?", Dhruv asked.

"I know nothing but I'm gonna give myself a week. If I'll fail, I'll come back", I said.

"Ok. I'll not stop you", Dhruv said.

"This is the first time in past seven years when you've decided to do something for yourself", Jay added.

"Thanks, guys", I said.

"Don't call me if you end up in jail. I'm not coming to help you", Jay added and I rolled my eyes.

"It's ok. Call me", Dhruv chuckled and I just shook my head.

"Get lost both of you", I said and after having a small session of brotherly hug and punch, they left.  I sighed and glanced at my empty room. Taking my cap and mask, I left the hotel room. I went back to the same cafe, I went yesterday in the hope of seeing that girl again.

Whilst walking my way to the cafe, I looked up at the sky. The dark clouds up hide all the stars. There was No moon today. Guess, I'm not talking to her today either. Plugging my earphones, I listen to some amazing music. The walk to the cafe was soothing and pleasant. My heart started beating frantically as soon as I walked inside the cafe.

My hopes were crushed and disappointed hugged me. Today, she didn't come. I looked all around myself trying to find her face in every girl's face but there was no one like her. There is NO one like my Spooky. Getting a coffee to go, I walked out of the cafe. I decided to let my Destiny rule me.

Having no clue, I started walking. The cafe is situated in a busy street. There are many shops down the line. I decided to randomly walk and explore the place with my heart quietly hoping to see that girl again.

That Wild Cat, my heart whispered.

I passed through Donut shop, cakes shop, jewellery shop, car repair shop and ended up outside a book shop. It says, "Explore another world". I read the details outside the shop. You can rent a book and read it here. They charge on hour basis.

I contemplated whether to walk in or not. I should give it a try, I thought to myself. I walked inside the shop. It was painted all pink and lavender fragrance hit my nose as soon as I walked to reach the reception.

I looked around myself. There were couches and small compartments which chairs and tables where people were enjoying their ME time reading novels. No one disturbingly anyone. This was a heaven for Novel Readers and Introverts.

Aashi would have loved this place, my heart whispered!!

A middle-aged woman was sitting on the other side of the reception table. She was typing something on her computer screen. She looked at her watched and pressed a button. I heard a small tone playing on one side of the table. The girl sitting over there groaned.

"Add another hour. I'll pay. I need to finish this book", she said and the old lady smiled.

"Hello", I said getting that lady's attention.

"Hello", she said. "What can I help you with?", She asked.

"I want a novel to read", I said.

"What kind of novel would you like to read? Tell me your type", She asked.

Type? What am I asking for? Ice cream flavour? Just give me any novel. What difference will it make?

"Anything interesting", I said and she smiled at me. I felt like a complete idiot.

"You're new to novels. I'll give you an interesting love story novel", She said.

"Every novel is a love story only", I said and she shook her head.

"There are other genres too. Like mystery, science, fiction, werewolf, fantasy etc", she explained and my head started spinning.

"That's huge", I said and she chuckled. We walked to the section of books and she stopped next to a wooden almirah. She glanced at me and said, "You're tall. Take that book out for me". I followed her hand pointing to a blue cover book. I took it out and read the title.

It says, "Hearts Whispers". She wiped the dust from the book and give it to me. She said, "Read it for an hour. Deposit me the money beforehand. And one more rule", she adjusted the spectacles over her nose whilst glaring at me, "No mark on the book and you can't leave this place until and unless you complete one hour. If you don't stay, I'll ban you from coming again".

What are you? Dictator?

"Yeah fine", I said and handed her the money. I started looking for a seat to sit down. After some searching, I succeeded in getting a two-seater place. But it was empty so I walked and sat down. I opened the book. Its title is quite a cliche.

Adjusting my mask and my cap, I opened the first page. The line inside the book caught my attention. It says,

"Every Heart Sings A Song Incomplete Which Other Heart Whispers Back".

I smiled but below this line, someone scribbled another line. I glared at that old lady. Didn't she ask me not to write anything in this book? Why didn't she say anything to the person who wrote in this book? Diplomatic stupid owner.

Someone scribbled down the printed like,

"I Am Still Waiting For My Heart To Silently Whisper A Song For Someone".

A smile made its way on my lips. Next one hour, I passed reading that story. It was amazing but what interests me more was the scribbled words in between the books. The person who read this book added her own feelings inside and that just made me happy and sometimes made me laugh. The small alarm kinda thing next to my table rang all of a sudden and I looked up.

"Time's up", the lady said and I nodded.

I'll come tomorrow to complete the book, I thought.

I got up and returned her the book. She kept it next to her and said, "Come back again".

"I will", I said and walked out of the book store. I made my way back to the resort. I will come tomorrow to look out for Aashi's identical person.

Whilst passing by the same cafe, my eyes again searched for her but she was nowhere to be found. I sighed and walked to the bus stop. I didn't feel like walking so I decided to take transport. I stopped at the bus stop and waited for the bus to arrive.

I sat down on a bench and people started coming. In total there were seven people other than me. I'm looking at everyone. I'm that free and bored. I pouted and looked up in the sky. There were still no stars or moon.

"Are you mad at me? Why are you not showing up?", I thought looking up in the sky. Cold breeze passed and I closed my eyes. I felt a cloth over my face. I opened my eyes to see a pink muffler over my face.

"I'm so sorry", I heard a faint female voice. The silk muffler was pulled away from my face and my vision was cleared. My eyes widened seeing the same girl I saw yesterday.

She looked at me with her big brown eyes behind those big nerdy spectacles. I got up from my seat without blinking my eyes. She had a novel in her hand and coffee mug in other.

"I'm sorry", she said. I couldn't speak. I pulled down my mask from my face but there was no recognition in her eyes.

"Aashi", I said and she looked here and there.

"Are you talking to me?", She enquired.

"You're Aashi, right?", I asked. She looked at me in confusion.

"No. You must have been confusing me to be someone else", she said.

"We met yesterday only", I said.

"I never met you. My name is not Aashi", she said.

"Why are you lying?", I asked as I walked towards her but the crowd started looking at my way. I wore the mask again.

"You're weird", she said as she walked away but I held her hand.

"Wait. Who are you?", I asked.

"Le.. leave my hand", she stuttered. I could see the resemblance of Aashi in her.

"Who are you? What's your name?", I asked.

"Please leave me", she said with glistening eyes. What the hell is wrong with her now? She was all badass yesterday and today she's behaving a damsel in distress. God, this girl will make me crazy.

"Tell me your name. I'll leave you", I said.

"Veronica", she said and I leave her hand. I stare into her brown eyes. They held innocence and weakness.

"I'm sorry", I said stepping away from her. She looked relieved. She just nodded. I kept staring at her shamelessly. How can it be possible? How can Aashi have Two doppelgangers? How can the same girl act differently on two different days?

A bus arrived but it didn't go to my stop. I saw the girl named Veronica walked towards the bus. She turned to look at me and passed me a smile. My heart skipped a beat. She walked in the bus and sat down on an empty seat. I kept looking at her. I wanted to take that bus but I don't where will it take me. I was afraid to go after her. She's not Aashi. She just looked like her. My heart will not be able to take that pain.

My legs didn't move an inch but my eyes ran after that bus. That girl took a part of my heart with her on that bus. I didn't look away until and unless the bus disappeared. My eyes glistened and tears of helplessness fall down my cheeks.

What a bad game God is playing with me? Here, I'm trying to forget Aashi and in the past two days, I've met two different girls with the same face but different Identity. How can this be real?

Why did you leave me Spooky?
