~"That feeling when you want to do everything before you die just because you don't want to regret a single moment you've spent, no matter how unfair life was."~

If i had a motive right now, it was to find that stupid nerdy Hriday Sharma. I forgot to add careless. How can someone be so careless when it came to the best opportunity they'll ever get. I forgot, he is a guy! So careless and dumb he is.
I walked down to my cottage, the one my family owned. It had been a long time since we came here.
I switched on my cellphone and messaged my cousin to cover up for me.
I had messages from Viyaan and Athira. They were sorry about it. That actually made me laugh. They wrecked me and they were being sorry now. I sent the same message to both of them, "I don't care about you. You can go and fuck each other. I'm sorry. I forgot, you actually do. And god knows since when! Have a lovely life ahead, you both are never gonna see me again. Neither i wanna see your fucking faces, ever."
And a series of sorry messages followed but that didn't change my mind about them.
I looked around the cottage. We used to come here every summer and i used to love it. The place brought back a thousand forgotten memories. I freshened up and got ready to walk around. I walked down to The Mall Road. I was in love with that place. I could see people celebrating life. Love was blossoming, families were together, that actually made me curse life more but somehow i regained my inner self, "Just some more days, Mannat, just some more days."
The beauty of this place was making me double minded. What if i started life from a new end. I wanted to scream at that moment. But i didn't. I went on to The Ridge. And i was so excited to see my favorite place, The Christ Church after so many years. I was literally dancing inside. That place was one od the enduring legacies of the British Raj and till date is known for it's beauty. The best thing about that place were the five fine stained glass windows which represented the Christian virtues of Faith, Hope, Charity, Fortitude, Patience and Humility.
I went inside and prayed to God. I had my family in my prayers. Even if they fell apart, they were the people who loved me, unlike Viyaan and Athira. I asked God to keep them and to give them strength.
Just then, someone tapped on my shoulder, i opened my eyes and saw who it was. It was Hriday Sharma, that stupid guy from the train.
"So the pretty girl is praying, haan?", he said.
I gave him an annoyed look and continued with my prayers. When i opened my eyes, he was still there, giving me his cute dimpled smile.
"It's a bad habit to disturb someone who is praying", i said as we made our way towards the exit.
"I'm a bad boy." And he smirked.
"You don't look like one." I said.
"Looks are deceptive, miss. And i didn't remember your name, what was it?". He again smiled.
"Because i never told you. I'm Mannat and you're Hriday." I looked at him.
"Mannat, you're a wish from the God himself. And how do you know me? Mysterious lady you are!" He was shocked.
"Up for a coffee? I'll let you know, you idiotic nerd." I laughed
He nodded and we walked together.
