I don’t want the group to break this time, but on the other hand I am scared of being back in Aarav’s life. 4 years ago, I did not take the decision to walk out of his life just to come back in his life right? I am not understanding what to do. Do I regret coming to the reunion today? Yes and No too.
Yes because I met my past, Aarav. I can’t go back in his life.
No because I met others. I realized how much I missed them after meeting them.
Alright, I made my decision! I will not do anything which breaks the group but I will also not do anything which will take me back to Aarav’s life. I can’t let that happen. I took the decision for Aarav, I just hope he understood it or else he needs to understand now. There is no other option left for him.
I get pulled for a group hug the next second and it feels so peaceful. It feels HOME. My friends are my HOME, my COMFORT, my EVERYTHING.
I never thought that, the person I met through Sara whom at once upon a time I was kinda jealous of ~I mean how can he steal my best friend from me?~.
Never thought that the person I met on the first day of my University in hallway whom I started hating, became his academic rival and made myself a promise that I will make sure to ruin his University life ~not in the literal ruin sense okay?~ would become not only my best friend but also something more than that.
Never ever thought that my Academic Rivals sister would become my sister too.
Never thought that my Academic Rivals best friend would become my best friend-brother.

After all the drama, we enjoy our time in the Uni, meet the old and new lecturers, professors, and who not! All the time nor I spoke to Aarav nor he spoke to me. Actually he did but I ignored him. My heart was aching but that was the best I could do. After the party, Aarav asked me if he can drop me to my apartment but I rejected his offer ~which broke my heart into further tiny pieces~. Vihaan accompanied Sara to her home because she was wasted ~as usual~, Aarav accompanied Aanya and I came by myself.
I jumped into my pajamas and sat on the couch ~in the weirdest position a human could~ started watching splitsvilla of course. I was fully invested in knowing whom Ishita voted for and then I get a notification from an unknown number. I ignore it but then another message, urghhh. Annoyed, I unlock the phone and click on the notif, as soon as I read the msgs and I straighten up myself on the couch.
Unknown number: Hello Meow!
My eyes started stinging because of tears. Only one person calls me Meow and that is Mr. Khadoos Bajaj ~I don't know why he calls me Meow tho~
Unknown number: Reached home safely?
Me: Hello. Yes, thank you for showing your concern.
I send and lock the phone.
I hear another notification but I don’t open to read it. Switching off the T.V. I stuff my face into the nearest pillow and cry my heart out. I wanted to have a good crying session after I met Aarav today and here we go. I know Aarav has a lot of questions to ask me and I can’t answer any those truthfully.
After crying for I don’t know how many minutes, sleep engulfs me.
