Coincidence or destiny? -6

 EPISODE 6

RYAN

'How dude? How you cajoled her?', a curious Harsh interrogated. I flexed on my conversation skills and told him, 'She's my love. She's not an ordinary girl for me.'. Harsh guffawed like a villain. 'What, why?', I asked after holding his one side of shoulder. He started his lecture, 'See, there's no such thing like "love". It's the world's biggest illusionary trap prepared by the stupid people out there. Everyone seeks "lust" not "love". And you're also included in that everyone. Don't forget that.' I replied, 'Are yaar, don't give me such advice and all. We're happy with each other!'. 'It's just 7 days bro! What about the future? Do she really likes you? What's the probability that she won't break it up?', he replied giving me a reality check. After few seconds, I ignored him and walked away from there. I came back home and after having lunch took my phone to check whether Siya is online or not. She has messaged : 'Hi, we need to talk.' The message got me curious and worried about what she's going to talk. I started the conversation like this:

_.Ryan._: Hey, I thought you'd text me in the evening.

Siya143: I need to tell you something it's really important.

_.Ryan._: Oh, okay, go ahead.

Siya143: See, I don't want to hurt you, but...

_.Ryan._: but what?

Siya143: I think, we need to break up.

_.Ryan._: WHAT! WHAT THE.... HELL?!

Siya143: I'm sorry, Ryan but I don't think we can make it.

_.Ryan._: But for what reason are you breaking our relationship?

Siya143: I don't know, I just don't feel that this can grow further. I just want to break up.

_.Ryan._: But have I made any mistake? May be we can sort it out?

Siya143: I don't know, I'm blank and clueless.

_.Ryan._: Siya, I can really help you if you're clueless.

Siya143: I don't need your help, I just need break up!

_.Ryan._: Okay, fine! Let's end this!

Siya143: Good for you!

_.Ryan._: Goodbye!

Siya143: BYE!

What was that? Why she dumped me? Am I so ugly or my way of talking is not good?, I was confused and shocked more than broken. She hasn't blocked me so I can still take another chance. The cunning side of me is not that cunning to bring my girlfriend back. So I jumped to google baba and typed some questions turn by turn in the search bar: 

'How to bring your girlfriend back?'

'What can be the reason for a breakup?'

'How to make your ex-girlfriend jealous?'

I didn't got proper answers to my questions except for the third one. I came across an article saying 'everything you can do to make her jealous and come back'. After noting down the points in my brain, I took screenshots, as I know I'll forget the steps. 

Few Days later...

'Send me her photo', I commanded my sibling, Isha. 'Oh, look at your tone! I'm elder than you. Show some respect.', she replied and flipped her hair. I gave a savage reply, 'Ok, grandma. Sorry. Now can you please help out me?'. Her shoulder got aligned and she made a pouted face and lifted her brows in anger. I convinced her after saying sorry for zillion times. She send me the photo of her bestfriend, Jagruti and I forwarded it to Siya with a message saying: 'See, she's my new girlfriend. I'm not showing off, I just wanted you to know that I moved on. We both are very very happy together.'

Siya143: Good. Glad to see that.

_.Ryan._: I like her, you can see how beautiful she is.

Inner me: She's looking like a stinky chimpanzee. Just like my sister.

Siya143: Yeah. I've eyes, I can see.

_.Ryan._: She cares for me a lot. Her message comes every now and then.

Siya143: Oh, is it.

_.Ryan._: She's so smart and intelligent. She is the topper of her class.

Inner me: She's the dumbest person on this planet. Even the donkeys are smarter than her.

Siya143: Achaa...

Inner me: Achaa with three dots? Means she has something on her mind.

Siya143: I'm happy that you moved on.

_.Ryan._: Yeah, so am I!

Inner me: Damn!

Girls are existing in this world to confuse people with their ironical replies. I shut down my phone, picked up bike keys and left from the cafe in which I was sitting.

SIYA

Sitting in a car, watching the world through the window, the emotional part of my brain started processing for the first time in these few days. My breakup day can't be described from the point of me 'cause it was blank, just BLANK. No tears, no guilt, no pain, just blank mind. I guess this was the world's most silent breakup ever. The car stopped and my dad said in a rhythm, 'We reached our destination!'. I got out of the car and the first face I saw was of Ryan. I rolled my eyes and turned around as if he doesn't exist for me. Looking at his position he was about to leave the cafe where me and my family were about to visit. After we entered I noticed him coming back to the cafe through my side visions. It was all neutral from my side as now I was more focused on my studies. My cousin, Preeti whispered in my ears as we took a seat, 'He's Ryan, your ex boyfriend, right?'. 'Hmm', I nodded. 'Show me his profile.', she whispered heavily pointing my mom's mobile phone. After when she cleared her throat after whispering a lot, I handed the phone to her.

Ryan was sitting just in front of our table talking on phone and grinding shamelessly like a jerk. I don't know to whom he's talking but it seems like the other person must be a girl or his so called new girlfriend. Preeti gave back the phone with on screen. It was chat of Ryan in which a text: 'Hi', has been send from my side. I looked at Preeti and her face was like a 2 year old child who has done a crime and now is apologizing. Before I unsend the message, his reply came back, I looked up towards him so do he. He smiled; Not like a jerk but like a innocent boy. I locked my phone and as my parents got up to click some pictures near the cycle and frame decors of the cafe, Preeti said, 'Talk to him, right now!', I said, 'What, no!'

'Siya just ask him about his whereabouts and all.'

'I know what is he doing now a days, we're in touch.'

'Yeah I can see. You both are doing just "pseudo talks", that's it! Talk to him for real! Pour your heart!'

'I don't want to, Preeti. Will you please stop this!'

'No. Talk to him Siya, you won't get such a person in your life again.'

I sighed and unlocked my phone.

Siya143: How are you?

_.Ryan._: Not fine

Siya143: Why so?

_.Ryan._: 'Cause you're not with me.

Siya143: Don't you've a girlfriend?

_.Ryan._: No

Siya143: You lied at that time!

_.Ryan._: And you accepted?

Siya143: I have to. We need to move on.

_.Ryan._: How can I've a corner in my heart for any other girl when that corner belongs to you? 

Siya143: Who was that girl?

_.Ryan._: She was my sister's friend. I intended to jealous you.

Siya143: What do you want?

_.Ryan._: Just come back, please.

Preeti peaked into my phone and exclaimed, 'Wow! Did you see that? He still wants you back. He never asked the reason for your break up and you never told him. But all those shit doesn't matter to him; what matters is YOU. He had an option to move on with some other girls but he chose you! That's so lovely of him!'

Her words struck my soul and I did whatever my heart said.

Siya143: We can come together again.

_.Ryan._: What, really?

He looked up with the widest smile ever but I hided my smile and blushed. My parents came back and I locked the phone.

After getting back to home, I talked to Ryan to clear our confusions. I told him the reasons for the breakup.

_.Ryan._: It's okay, let's just leave everything behind and start again;-)

Siya143: Yes.

Somewhere in my mind, there was something. I don't know what but it was unrecognizable. I was in a doubtful state of mind that whether this relationship will grow or not; but afterwards I assured myself, Let us give it a proper second chance, Siya.
