Priya 2

Priya seemed to be lost most of the times.She became very vulnerable and even small things made her break down and pour her heart out.She started to make herself aloof from all her near and dear ones.She just wanted to grieve and to be alone.She started hating herself for what she was becoming.She knew she was a strong person.

Days passed by and it was Friday soon.Friday,the day when they used to go for dinner together.When they used to spend more time than usual.She came office and left early as she used to every Friday.She reached her hostel early and didn’t know what to do.Whatever she used to do Ashish was a part of it.Whether its buying grocery or clothes.Paying bills or movies.She was feeling pathetic.Suddenly the phone ringed.And the name flashing was Ashu…her Ashu was calling her after 4 days.

She didn’t know what to do.She didn’t pick up.He called again.She picked up.

Ashish: Hello…

Priya: (Speechless,Couldn’t utter a word..)

Ashish: Hello…Pri..You there???

Priya: (Murmered) Hi..(her cheeks are sodden now with tears)

Ashish: So,How are you???

Priya: (After so many days,he is asking me how am I?How I have spent all these days without a word from him..Then he didn’t care,how was I ? )

Ashu,what do you want???

Ashish: Hey,I just called to know how are you???

Priya: ( How am I supposed to be after you left me like this???As if you don’t know how am I???)

Disconnects the phone….(starts crying more and is graveful now)

Phone rings…Ashu calling….She doesn’t picks up.

A message pops up on her mobile screen…Its from Ashish.
