Two Years Later.......

Sameer POV :-

I looked at the huge building in front of me which became my second home nowadays and Infact I stay here more time than at my home.

I sighed.

I myself don't know how I became so much workaholic. I didn't have much choice though, if we want to become successful then we should work, work and work.

I entered into my office where everyone stopped doing whatever they are doing, chit-chatting, laughing and looks at me with fear and respect while greeting me.

I just nodded at them and stepped into my elevator. I came out of the lift when I reached my floor and walked towards my cabin. I sat on my chair and leaned my head back closing my eyes. I wonder how much my staff is afraid of me.

I know actually why because I had always been the tough boss for them. I am very much strict and arrogant when it comes to the work. I cannot tolerate any carelessness and mistakes in my office.

I was not like this before. I was an easy going guy, friendly and light headed person until......

Until that fateful day........

I shut my eyes tightly to avoid those scenes playing in my mind.

A knock interrupted my painful thoughts.

" Come in " I ordered.

I looked up to see my secretary coming inside with my schedule for today.

She is wearing a tight short dress flaunting her figure.

" Sir, this is your schedule for today." She said and smiled seductively at me.

This became my daily routine.

And I didn't care like I always do.

" Ok..... anything else." I asked looking down at my schedule.

" Nothing Sir, that's all for today." She said standing closely near my table.

" Ok you may leave now." I said not looking at her.

She sighed and went out of my office.

I came across many girls like her who are desperate for my attention in my life so I had learned how to deal with them.

I looked down at my schedule. I had to attend two meetings today and an official party hosted by one of my clients.

This is my daily schedule.....come to office, attend meetings, work and finally go to home and sleep.

It was already evening when I finished my meetings for today and so  went to attend the party. I met my clients and some other business partners there. I talked with them for sometime and left from there saying that I have some urgent meeting to attend.

It is not surprise for them that I don't drink, I don't enjoy parties, I don't socialize more.

Because they know I am like that.

I reached home and went to my room. I took a quick shower and changed into a t- shirt and sweatpants.

I headed downstairs to my Mom's room.

" Mom" I knocked on her door and called her.

" Come in Beta." She said.

" What are you doing ?" I asked her going inside her room.

" Just reading a book." She said smiling at me.

" Had your dinner?" I asked her.

" Yes beta " she said

" And medicines." I asked her and she bit her tongue.

I mock glared at her. I knew she would forget.

" Sorry.....I just got caught up in the book." She said.

I reached for her medicines and gave them to her with water.She took them and gulped them with water.

" It's already late Sameer, you should go and eat." She said to me keeping her hand on my head lovingly.

" I will eat and you should take rest now." I said to her and was about to get up but mom stopped me.

" Beta.....you look so tired.....you just work and work. You have some life other than office and home also beta." She said concerned and I just looked at her.

" You know I feel like I lost my son somewhere. You should spend some time with your friends and go outside to enjoy and live your life." She advised holding my cheek with her palm.

Friends.

I don't have any friends.

I don't make any friends.

Anymore.

" Mom stop worrying. I am fine just little work tension that's it and I don't have time to hangout with friends." I dismissed her thoughts and got up to go.

" Ok, wait I will serve your dinner." She said getting up.

" No Mom, it's late you should sleep.....Prakash is there and he will serve me." I made her lay on her bed and switched off the lights.

" Goodnight." I kissed her forehead.

" Goodnight." She said and with that I closed the door behind me.

I went to the dining room where Prakash was waiting for me to serve.

I smiled at him and he served my food.

I ate dinner with lot of thoughts revolving around my mind.

I quickly finished my dinner and went back to my room.

I sat on my bed holding my head in my hands.

Friends.

Guilt.

Regret.

Helplessness.

Alone.

These are the only things I am feeling since past two years.

What did I do?

Why did I do?

Why was I so stupid?

How didn't I see where the things were going ?

Was I that blind?

Was I that ignorant?

Was I that selfish?

Why did I act that impulsively that day?

I shouldn't have questioned my best friend like that.

I should have asked her.

I should have trusted her.

I should have trusted my friends.

I should have been by my friends side.

I should have fulfilled my friendship.

But what I did I do?

I destroyed everything.

I just spoiled everything I had listening to whatever that witch said.

It's not that I loved Tanya so much that I trusted her and I did whatever she said.

But it's that she acts so innocent and cries whenever I deny something she tells me or asks me to do.

Why did I even dated her in the first place?

The answer for this question is still unknown to me.

I was a teenager that time.

Dating, relationship, boyfriend and girlfriend thing seemed to be interesting for me that time.

It doesn't mean that I crossed my limits.

I know my limits and I stayed in my limits even when Tanya provoked me to do certain things.

I just liked Tanya.

Maybe because of het looks or her beauty oraube because she is head over heels for me.

Neither I didn't have any feelings for her nor I didn't loved her.

We were both were just in a relationship which doesn't have any meaning.

At that time I have known that I have been spending less time with my friends and more time with Tanya.

But what could I do?

Whenever I tried to be close to my friends or spent time with them, Tanya would start crying saying that I am ignoring her and I am not treating her as a girlfriend at all.

Tears were my weakness, I can never see anyone crying and I used to fell for that.

But what I didn't know was that I was hurting my best friends unknowingly in all this boyfriend girlfriend mess.

I was ignoring them, avoiding them and behaved distant to them lately to avoid all the fights and crying but I didn't realize that I was losing them.

At one point I wanted to end my relationship with Tanya but she used to go hysterical and cry rivers whenever I brought up that topic.

So I thought that since it was our final year in the college and we all will move out to different colleges or universities next year, our breaking up will be easy for me by saying such  valid reasons to her.

But.....

I didn't expect that fight that day.

I didn't expect it will end like that...that day.

I didn't expect I will lose my friendship that day.

I didn't expect I will lose my best friends that day.

That fateful day has snatched away my friends, my happiness, my peace.....

I wanted to prove Tanya wrong that day.

I wanted to prove Piyu cannot do such things to anyone that day.

I wanted to prove what Tanya was saying was a lie or just a misunderstanding that day.

But.....

Piyu was calm.

She looked hurt, shocked and disappointed.

And that made my heart clenched.

Piyu was not saying anything.

She was not defending herself.

She just stood there in silence.

That made me angry.

Besides Jai's anger was also not helping the situation at all.

My anger was growing.

I asked her Why she pushed Tanya from stairs in anger so that at least at that time she will say that she didn't do that.

But she is just staring at me in disbelief.....

And then I did the most stupid thing I shouldn't have done.

I asked her that what Tanya was filling my ears from many days which I didn't believe but I asked her in anger unable to bear her silence.

I expected her to shout at me saying that she isn't jealous or she didn't push Tanya.

But she did the most unexpected thing.

She slapped me.

I was shocked.

No words came out of my mouth.

She thought.....

...I didn't trusted her.

...I didn't believed her.

...I accused her.

...I breaked her trust.

She broke all ties with me.

She broke our friendship.

She broke everything.

What she didn't know was that......

She broke me too.

And it wasn't her fault, it's my mistake.

And I deserve it.

I lost her.

I lost my best friends.

Her slap made slapped me into the reality.

Rads was right that I will regret and that will be too late to realise.

I regretted and still regretting about what happened that day.

I realised the truth but it was too late.

I lost them.

After that incident, I have tried hard to explain her but she didn't give any chance and due to the final exams and  all it was hard to meet her.

After exams also I tried to meet her but she just vanished.

Jai and Rads also didn't listened to me and didn't let me know about Piyu's whereabouts.

She vanished like she didn't exist.

I didn't saw or meet them from past two years in fact I couldn't.

I opened my eyes and realized that I am crying.

Now this also became my daily routine.

How I wish to change all this.

But I couldn't.

I washed my face and sat on my bed looking at the pictures of me and Piyali and me, our group photo kept on the bed side table.

Tears slipped out of my eyes again......

" I miss you all."

" I miss you Piyu."

To be continued..........

It's a leap guys.....

So guys do you still hate Sameer?

Do you think that his reasons were valid for what he had done?

I know he is stupid and what he had was wrong but he was too naive and blind to understand that.

So this story will be more interesting and fun after the leap.

So Stay tuned...........
