Yours

It was the last day of college for Ehan. The handsome, chocolate boy and sweetheart of the college. But he never spared a second glance at any girl except one, Naira. He was waiting for her like no more today.

His friends were enjoying his situation which was making Ehan to get pissed off to the core.

He was like born to win type of guy. Who never failed at his any attempt for whatever be it.....

But this time he was on the verge of getting failed. He was expecting Naira to confess her feelings for him but at the same time deep in his heart he was wishing not to happen something like that which was even unknown to him.

When it was their time to leave from there as they had a plan to go somewhere, Akash, one of his friends spoke up sarcastically, "Thanks to her that we got the Golden chance to call you a 'Loser' at least for once."

Ehan was fuming in anger but right then Naira got there panting as if she was running for a while and uttered between her panting, "I have something to tell you."

Anyone could easily tell what Ira had to say to Ehan. All of his friends got silent whereas the specific one got away from them.

Naira spoke up with a little bit of hesitation, "Ehan, though I am not sure what do you think of me but I want to confess. I think I have fallen for you. I love you."

Hearing Naira, letting out a sigh in relief Ehan turned to his friends and gave them a 'I told you type look' and then again turned to Ira who was giving him a hopeful look.

Naira was hoping to hear the same words as her from him and so when Ehan uttered, "Finally, you did it. I was waiting for this moment like no more and dying to hear it from you."

Naira smiled heartily but the smile started fading away as Ehan went on uttering, "But Naira, I don't love you. Making you fall for me was nothing but 'A Dare' for me. And you know what I can't afford to lose. I just can't handle it."

Hearing Ehan, Naira just kept looking in disbelief at him as he then uttered looking at his friends, "Ehan Sinha never fails be it anything." and then again turned to Naira for once again and uttered, "Let's not meet for any second time."

Naira got so lost in Ehan's words that she couldn't get herself to utter anything. Only a tear escaped from the corner of her right eye.

Completing his say, Ehan left from there before Naira could get hold of herself and say something.

Ehan's friends also left the place after giving Naira an all annoyed look.

Someone uttered, "How could she think Ehan will love her like really!"

Whereas someone got uttering sarcastically, "Poor girl!"

Naira then sat on a bench with a thud and kept staring with all teary eyes at Ehan's descending figure whom she started to love wholeheartedly. She still couldn't believe Ehan did that to her.

His care, his affection, his concern for her was all fake. He was doing all that only to win that damn dare. Nothing else.

She started thinking all that to be a nightmare and kept wishing to wake up from that desperately.

Then it started to rain making her realize it was not a dream but the truth.

All the memories started flashing in front of her eyes once again only to make her shedding tears like no more....

At some point wiping off the tears, Naira forwarded towards home being all hurt and broken and wishing the same as Ehan not to face him for any second time.

But what they didn't know was destiny had already some other plans. And it was only the beginning of the game of destiny to get them crossed their path for making them start a journey towards each other........

Ehan Sinha

Ehan, a handsome guy who is so full of himself being the only child of his billionaire father who loves him to the core. His mother left them when he was 15. From then he hates girls.

He is like born to win type of guy and never takes no as an answer. He loves challenges and to win, he can go to any extent.

Naira Claire

Naira, an innocent and beautiful girl who comes off a middle class family. Her parents used to love her dearly so as she also. She was living her life all happily until her parents died suddenly in an accident.

She ended up coming to the town to live with her father's friend who was more like a brother to her father against her will.

"Life is nothing like fairy tales"

This is what Naira got to learn from her life.

She was broken. The least expected incidents of her past shattered her to the core and let her meet the dead end of her life.

When situation like that makes someone weaker, Naira tried to hold that as her strength and overcame it on her own.

But what she didn't know was the strength and courage she mustered up through all this time would be vanished in the thin air in no moment leaving her on her own at the end again.......

Once while playing truth and dare with his friends, Ehan likewise chose dare and the task he was asked to do got his life turned upside down.

He was asked to make Naira fall for him and he did that by playing the game all heartlessly.

But little did he knew he will end up falling for her and chasing her in the long run of life.......

Author's P.O.V.

10 years back

Some arguments of a man and a woman could be heard from a room of the little apartment.

"I want a divorce from you. I just don't want to be your wife and live a life like this anymore. I just want to go. Why don't you understand? Are you dumb or something??" the woman uttered furiously more like shouting.

"I love you. Please don't do this to me. At least think about Ehan. He needs both of us. Please don't do this. I promise you that I will work die hard from now and make sure to get back to our earlier days. I will fulfill your every demand. I will make our business a success again. Just give me a little more time." the man said more like pleading.

"No. Nothing is left between us. I love Aman now and I am going to marry him." the woman spoke up with a cold face.

The man got silent as he understood now no matter how hard he tries, it's not going to work on his wife as she had already made her mind to live a king-size life which he had failed to give her after his business got down.

"I am going. I want you to send me the divorce papers in two days otherwise I'll have to go to the court by myself.", saying this, the woman forwarded towards her packed bag.

The door of the room got opened and a lady in her mid-thirties came out pulling a bag behind.

Indeed she was beautiful but the coldness on her face was making her look ugly. She didn't even try to meet her child for the last time. She just left in a black Mercedes which was already waiting for her.

Ehan, a young boy of 15 years was standing right beside the room witnessing everything since the day first.

He witnessed their happy family shattering little by little because of his own mother and that billionaire man, named Aman.

He had witnessed his father begging to his mother to stay with him since the last month. He had witnessed his mother becoming so cold-hearted and at last today he witnessed his mother dragging her bag away without even casting a single glance at him for the last time.

He forwarded towards his father's room as soon as his mother left and found him sitting on the floor in the middle of the room in a miserable condition.

He ran towards his father and hugged him. His father hugged him back immediately. Both of them were crying. A 15 year old boy was comforting his father.

He was also hurt but even at such a young age he knew how to control his emotions. He already knew that from now they were on their own and from the deep of his heart he was hating not his mother only rather the species called woman already.

Present Time

In a small town

It was past midnight. A girl of her early twenties was so lost in her studies that she didn't even get to know when her parents entered her room.

Getting near, her parents sat on the bed. Looking at her, contented smiles crept on her parents' faces.

Her father spoke up then while caressing her hair, "Ira?"

The girl immediately looked up at them getting all startled and got uttering while giving them a confused look, "Dad..Mom, you here? This time? Why didn't you sleep yet! What's the matter? Anything wrong? Are you sick or something? Should I call the doctor?"

She was about to get up but her father spoke up, "Relax, sweetie. We are okay. Nothing is wrong."

She looked at them and uttered again, "Then why are you awake till now? Do you have any idea what time is it? It's not good for your health to keep awaking till this late. Don't you know the proverb"

Her mother spoke up interrupting her in between while letting out a sigh, "Will you listen to us for some moments, Naira? Why do you always go on like a chatterbox?"

The girl pouted innocently and looked at her father to have some support like always.

Her father spoke up then turning to her mother, "Why are you always like this to my daughter!"

Hearing her father, she smiled heartily. Then looking back to the girl, her father spoke up again smilingly, "Sweetie, we need to go out tomorrow to do some important work and will be back before evening time. After coming back from college, you have your lunch properly, okay Ira?"

While nodding at him, she asked him, "Okay but what's this all about Dad and where are you going by the way? That even you two together and leaving me alone!"

Her father spoke up after sparing a glance to his wife, "Look at this girl! What are you talking about, Ira? Sweetie, we are not going anywhere leaving you alone or something! We just have some work in town, dear."

Naira nodded at him thoughtfully and he kissed on the top of her head.

Her mother then came forward and following her husband, she also did the same.

Kissing Naira on her forehead, she spoke up, "It's not like it's late of the night for us only. You should also sleep now."

Naira spoke up smilingly at them, "I am almost done Mom. I will go to bed soon. You two go and sleep now. Good night."

After saying, "Good night, darling.", her parents forwarded to leave only to get stopped midway. They turned to Naira again for once and they didn't know why but they felt like their eyes were getting teary as they left the room.

Next Day

It was a sort of bright sunny day but in the afternoon time, gentle breeze started blowing making the atmosphere all cool and peaceful.

Naira, the same beautiful young girl from last night was coming back from her college while gossiping smilingly with her friends.

Standing at the entrance of her home, she announced her presence loudly, "I am home."

But when she got no response like as usual, she entered the house with a frowning face as she continued calling, "Mom? Dad? Where are you?"

She checked all around the house but no one came to her sight. She got thinking, "Where did they go? That even without telling me!"

Then she remembered her parents coming to her room last night when she was so busy with her studies.

But she forgot it all and when she tried to recall it, she remembered....

Getting freshen up, she took her lunch and then kept waiting for her parents to come back.

She remembered her father saying that they would be back before evening but it was already past evening long back and there was no sight of them coming back.

An unknown fear and tension occupied Naira's heart. She was restlessly walking in the yard of their house. She had an exam tomorrow and she was known to become a bookworm at the time of exams.

But today she couldn't make her even think of study at all. All she just wanted to see her parents entering the house safe and sound.

What she didn't know that it was too late for that to happen already.

The bus on which her parents were, got into an accident and they had already made their way to the place from where there was no way for them to come back to their loving daughter who was waiting for them desperately.

It was like they already knew this would happen and last night they were saying their final good bye to Naira.

When it was almost 10 at night, a middle aged man entered the house and Naira got uttering immediately, "Dad, what took you so long to" only to get stopped as she understood it wasn't her father.

The man spoke up then, "Naira, dear you need to come with me to the hospital."

Leaving the worst imagination aside forcefully, Naira spoke up, "Why uncle? Anyways I won't go out now. Dad and Mom will be back any moment. If they don't get to see me here, they will get worried too much."

That man tried to make Naira understand, "Naira, please dear. Be strong. They aren't coming back here. Let's go to hospital. They are"

Interrupting him, Naira spoke up, "Have you gone crazy! I won't go anywhere. Dad said they will be back. He always keeps his promises. They will definitely come back to me."

The man took Naira with him after trying for a while. All the way Naira just kept saying, "It can't be true. It's just a misunderstanding. They can't leave me alone like this. They just can't."

When he reached the hospital with Naira, some of other people from Naira's neighbors were also there. Seeing Naira, their faces turned sadder. Some of them followed Naira as she got inside the hospital building.

The doctor directed them the way where two bodies were lying lifelessly being fully covered with the white color of clothing. The doctor removed the clothing from their faces to make Naira see them only to get her frozen there in her place........
