Virat suddenly felt empty . "Sanvi I know what your thinking right now . But please trust me-" He was left hanging midway . He tried to pull her back into his embrace .
Sanvi took a step back, raised both her hands in defence and indicated him to stop talking . "Virat, that's where you've misunderstood . Nobody can fake things for years . Probably you started it off as a dare to make her fall for you . But then, eventually you actually started liking her . You started respecting and admiring her . I've seen that love you had for her . These eyes can nicer fool Virat .
Virat let out a bitter laugh . "No Sanvi, I wanted her . I was lusting over her every single day and night . But all these years, I never got a chance to even touch her little finger . Her past life had left a deep scar on her that she refused to be touched by anybody . I was patiently putting on my best boyfriend image . "
Virat paused . He looked away from Sanvi gulped down the contents of the entire drink and told her . "I didn't know that she'd already planned this party . But I thought of getting her here after our graduation ceremony as a celebration to formally propose to her . Most importantly getting to lay my hands on her and finally leave her after that . You know I'm such a schemer Sanvi!" Virat couldn't control any longer . His eyes flooded with tears .
Sanvi didn't know if she was hallucinating since they were drinking . She couldn't believe her own ears . But right now, she didn't think any of that .
She immediately got closer to Virat and hugged him . "It's okay . It's okay Virat . You didn't do any of that . So it's okay . You are not at fault and Maya always thought you loved her . This secret will remain with us . When Maya comes back, you can continue to love her like you do with all your heart without faking . " She lovingly patted his back and tried to console him .
Just then Virat opened his mouth to speak . He was still being hugged and consoled by Sanvi . " Sanvi, but only after I lost her did I realise what I lost . That's when I learnt my lesson, the hard way . I deserved this Sanvi . I was such a creepy schemer, who fooled her in the name of love . Such a wonderful gem of a girl doesn't deserve a scoundrel like me . But Sanvi, I promise I've changed . I've realised it all . I will never ever lose her again . "
He pause and continued, "If only life can give me a second chance… . I badly want to correct myself Sanvi . I need to find her . I'll give her all the love in this world . Please let's get her back . " He continued to wail out now .
Sanvi felt like her chest was tearing apart . 'Here I'm still thinking of the possibilities of making you mine while your entirety is shouting just one name -Maya!' Sanvi felt irony ripping her soul apart .
Yet, she managed to keep all of her feelings aside and was trying all possible ways to console Virat . Maybe her love for him was so unconditional that she overlooked all his flaws as well . She loved him so much to the point where she was putting herself at risk . She very well knew that this love of her would leave her totally devastated . Yet she was ready to give herself fully and blending into him body and soul .
She made him sit on a chair and stood in between his legs and said, "Okay now enough Virat . Stop crying now . " She kept repeating it and wiped his tears lovingly to the point she was almost kissing his tears away . Their proximity to each other was too much that she could feel his warm breath on her face . Her fingers accidentally brushed past his lips . She froze .
Their lips were just inches apart now . She looked into his black eyes which had become clear just like the sky after a heavy rainfall .
Virat felt like Sanvi's eyes could see through his dark soul .
Sanvi sensed the discomfort Virat felt . She kissed him on his forehead . "It's okay Virat . You don't have to worry about anything anymore . Come, let's get back to sleep now . "
She was about to turn around when Virat said, "Stay!" Even Virat didn't realise why he said that . Maybe because he had just then bared his soul to Sanvi, he felt very insecure once she was about to go .
Sanvi froze . She stood there like a rock .
Virat hugged her and buried his head at the crook of her neck . Sanvi felt her last line of resistance cracking up . She hugged him back wholly .
