When they met

Dehradun Airport,

After a 24-hour long flight, Adhiya and Shruti were standing at Dehradun airport.

Adhiya was going out of the airport while doing something on her phone. She had his phone in one hand and luggage in the other.

She was wearing an off-shoulder crop top and shorts. His face was covered with a mask, only his blue eyes were visible.

Shruti called out to Aadhiya from behind and said " Crissy wait for me. Aadhiya stopped hearing his voice. But he didn't bother to turn back".

Shruti came to him and said, "Ahh I was so excited to come to India, but after seeing so much crowd here at the airport, I have become dizzy.' Yes, I agree that the airport is a little small but it happens a little yarr".

Everyone at the airport was staring at them. 

When Aadhiya saw Shruti's face and heard her words, she started laughing and laughing. Seeing him laughing like this, Shruti became silent and started looking at him. Aadhiya was laughing unaware of all this.

Unaware of what a huge storm this laughter was going to bring behind it, when Adhiya's attention went towards Shruti, she was watching her intently.

Adhiya asked, "Why are you looking at us like this, haven't you seen us before today"?

Shruti said smilingly, "I have seen it before, but I have never seen your carefree laughter like this. We have been together for the last seven years and today you have smiled for the first time in these seven years."

"You know what Crissy, you look so beautiful when you smile like this. Why don't you always smile like this? Keep smiling like this always, see, someday someone will fall in love with your smile" Shruti said excitedly.

Aadhiya became silent after listening to Shruti. It was not so easy for him to smile without being aware, even if he did smile, for whom should he smile and how should he smile, how can someone smile with so many secrets in his heart?

Aadhiya normalized herself and said to Shruti, "It's okay, it's just a matter of a little while. You go outside and wait for me, I just came after informing Nanu."

Shruti went from there towards the entrance. Aadhiya took one look at Shruti who was running outside and then dialed her Nanu. But no one was picking up the call from the other side.

Aadhiya was walking without looking in front. His entire attention was on his phone. While walking, she collided with a boy coming from the front and started falling. She closed his eyes tightly for fear of falling. But when she realized that she had not fallen, she opened her eyes and just kept looking.

 Her ocean-like blue eyes clashed with deep black charcoal eyes. Both of them were looking into each other's eyes without even blinking an eye. Both of them had masks on their faces, due to which only their eyes were visible.

Both of them had forgotten the world around them. It was as if time had stopped for both of them. There was a feeling of peace around both of them.

There was silence around them, if anything they could hear it was each other's heartbeat. There was peace in the eyes of one, there was sadness in the eyes of the other, and there was immense pain and yearning in the eyes of love. Don't know why both of them were not able to take their eyes off each other.

They had kept each other in front of each other with their eyes just like an open book, and then the sound of the announcement was heard in both of their ears and with that, both of them came back to their senses.

The boy carefully made Aadhya stand straight. Aadhiya's hand was still in her hand.

Aadhiya said to the boy "Thank you" and then touching her hand with his hand, Aadhiya bent down and started picking up her bag and the things that had fallen from us.

Thinking of helping her, the boy also bent down to pick up her things, when his anger went to a tattoo near the thumb of Adhiya's right hand.

While saying “believe”, the boy's eyes fixed on Aadhiya’s eyes. Aadhiya who was carrying her luggage. She could feel the boy's eyes on her.

Aadhya was not feeling uncomfortable in his eyes but she was feeling extremely nervous.

She quickly put her things in her bag and without looking at the boy, she moved ahead from there. She did not look back even once. At this time his heartbeat was going very fast. The face of the same boy was appearing in front of him again and again. Those dark charcoal eyes of hers. Don't know why but it was giving me a feeling of belonging.

On the other hand, that boy was also completely calm and tough. But her heartbeat was uncontrolled, he placed one hand on her heart and turned back. Started looking in the direction in which Adhiya had gone. Adhiya's ocean-like blue eyes appeared in front of him again and again.

Just then a voice came from behind the same boy, "Shiv, where have you been? We were waiting for you at the airport for so long."

Ahh yes of course it was Shivaay, who had come at this time to receive his parents at the airport.

Smiling, Shivaay turned back and hugged his mom tightly and said, "I missed you, Mom."

Shivaay's mother Niharika also hugs him rubs his back and says, "I also missed you, my baby." 

Then from behind Shivaya's father Shlok said in irritation, "Great, all the love is for your mother. Ah yes, I forgot that when you two mother and son meet, you always forget me."

Looking at Shivaya Shlok, say to Niharika, "Mom, do you smell burning?" 

Niharika also said in the same tone, "Yes my boy, there is a smell of burning. Look, maybe something is burning nearby. Saying this, she starts looking around." 

Shlok got irritated and started leaving from there. Then Shivaya held his hand from behind and said, "Dad, are you so irritated? Now I have to take revenge for the entire two months from you." Saying this, Shivaya hugged Shlok. A smile appeared on Shlok's face.

Just then both of them heard the sound of someone coughing. When both of them looked in that direction, Niharika was staring at them both.

Shivaya laughs seeing Niharika angry and extends one of his hands towards Niharika. Seeing this, Niharika also hugged both of them.
