LOVE

It's very easy to say to ourselves that we love someone but the hard part comes when we have to confess our love to the person we love.

It takes only a moment to fall in love.

But it may take ages to confess our love.

Reason?

It may be because we may not realize it sooner.

Or may be because we have confused feelings.

Or may be because of Fear, Insecurities, guilt, regrets.....etc........

The main reason is fear of losing.

The fear of losing our loved ones scares us to death and we think that it's better to keep our feelings to ourselves.

This is the same fear Piyu felt years ago when she realized that she fell in love with her best friend. And so she kept her feelings for herself in fear of losing her best friend but she lost him anyway even though she didn't confess her love and they stayed apart for years.

So now she decides that she shouldn't delay anymore and especially when she got some signals from his side, she should definitely confess her love.

On the other hand, Sameer's case was worse because he had realized his love for her in awful circumstances when he lost her. His guilt and regret overtook his love. And when he met her after years he doesn't want to take any chance to lose her. So the fear of losing her again along with guilt in his heart, he couldn't gain courage to express his love to her.

But again we don't know what happens next in our lives. Moreover he couldn't even imagine her with any other man and he can't even imagine his life without her. So, he decides to confess his love to her and also beg her to stay in his life even just as a friend if she doesn't feel the same for him.

Jai was always a hot headed person with strict morals and values which came from his family. He was never with a girl other than Rads and Piyu whom he considers as his sisters. He was never interested in dating and all as he was against it and also knows that his family chooses the girl for him at the end of the day. So he never bothered to think about the girls and love.

But, in London, when he met Meera, he felt intrigued. He heard a lot about her that she is arrogant, rude and a self centered girl. But with him she never behaved like that. Her friends also told him that he changed her as she is a total different girl around him.

He somewhat felt happy hearing that as he felt special. She would make him laugh and tease him so much about his naivety regarding girls and his flirting skills. He liked her company and felt happy when he was around her. But he never thought of love as he doesn't know what is love. And after seeing Piyu's suffering in love he decided to better stay away from it.

But he couldn't deny the fact that he is protective over her and also feels jealous when any other boy is around her. As dumb idiot as he is didn't understand his feelings towards her. When she kissed him he felt sparks, he felt his heart melt, he felt the urge to pull her close to him.

He wasn't sure if his feelings towards her and was also afraid that he might fall in love. So he just left her and came back to India but didn't know that he hurted her so much by his words and actions.

Piyu made him understand that how much rudely he behaved with Meera. Thank God Rads wasn't there at that time because she would beat him to death if she would have seen how much he hurted her again in the restaurant.

Jai thought and thought but he doesn't know what's in his heart and what to do. She is going back to London forever and he is not liking it.

Rads on the other side never thought in her wildest dreams that she would have feelings for a flirt like Rohan. Seriously that guy flirts with everything that looks like a girl. She always runs away from him to save herself from heart break as she knows a guy like Rohan can never be serious about relationships.

But she also cannot deny the fact that he made her feel special, he made her feel like a girl with his stupid pick up lines and flirtings. She never cared about boys. She only cares for her friends, family, her fashion house and most importantly her Food. In fact she never had time to think about the boys as she was always busy in her work.

So now, Piyu and Sameer are sure about their feelings and confessing them but Jai and Rads aren't sure as they have confused and mixed  feelings.

Will all their love stays Unrequited?

******

After a week of their meeting at the Food joint, nobody met each other. Everyone were busy in their own world until the invitation of Piyu to her house for all of them for a get together.

Actually it is a small get together with close friends and relatives to welcome their new little member to their family. So Piyu invited all her friends including Rohan.

People started coming to the party and all the arrangements were completed. Piyu got ready and is taking care of the baby while others are busy getting ready and doing arrangements.

Piyu was eagerly waiting to meet Sameer as it has been already more than a week since they have met. He told her that he will be late as he has some important meeting.

Rads and Jai came little early to meet little AJ. Rads literally jumped squealing like a little kid looking at the cute baby while jai tried to stop her as they were earning wierd looks from other people present there.

Piyu chuckled at them and looked at the entrance for Sameer. Apoorva noticed this and smirked at her with a wink. Piyu blushed and went away to talk to others.

Rads also waited for Rohan to come but he didn't. She wondered he is such a party person, so why didn't he come. She was disappointed as she couldn't meet him but brushed off thinking he must be busy.

Piyu face fell when she realized that almost party was over and Sam is still not here. She was so eager to meet him and also thought of confessing her love for him today but he didn't come.

She looked around warily and noticed Rads talking to Jai seriously. It looked like she is taking a severe class on him as he looked down guiltily. Piyu laughed looking at them but she knows Jai needed that after what he did to Meera. She will be glad if Rads can put some sense into his dumb brain.

Piyu called on Sam's mobile but his phone is unreachable. She texted him about his whereabouts but she didn't get any reply. Looking at the dissapointed face of Piyu, Rads and Jai also tried to contact him but no use.

They frowned as Sam never does this. He always responds to their calls and texts but this is the first time he didn't respond. They all were worried as to why he didn't come to the party and not responding their calls and texts.

Nonetheless Jai and Rads consoled anxious Piyu saying that he must be busy or there must be no charging left in his phone which calmed her down a little.

All through the leftover party, Piyu just sat glumily at a corner holding her nephew. She was sad, disappointed, anxious and mostly scared. There is an unknown fear bubbled inside her heart about Sam that where he is and whether he is safe or not.

Apoorva along with Piyu's mom understood the reason behind her moody behavior, So they didn't pester her much. Rads left early as she had an important meeting next day. Jai assured Piyu that Sam will be alright and left to his home.

After everyone left, Piyu changed her dress and got ready to sleep. But she couldn't sleep as her mind kept assuming things about Sameer. She closes her eyes but the image of Sam in distraught state appeared before her which made her jerk up from her sleep gasping.

Immediately she reached for her phone and called on his mobile. This time it ringed but he didn't pick up. She thought that he must have slept and started to type a message.

Sam I hope you are alright, Please call or message when you are free..... Goodnight.

She typed and hit send. She tried to console herself that everything is Ok but there was a nagging feeling inside her heart that says something is wrong.

She brushed off her thoughts and went to sleep thinking that she will go and meet him tomorrow.

But what she didn't know was that  tomorrow's morning brings havoc in their lives and turns their world upside down.
