Friendship Happy Romance

Night time, 11:30 PM, February 13th

Origin is on her study table trying to focus on her studies but lot of things are going around on her head. She is a book worm and a career oriented girl. She's very ambitious and had into a relationship for the first time.

It was the night of her first Valentine's day which she had already imagined after entering into the relationship with Sreyers, that she would be celebrating her very first Valentine's day with her boyfriend in a very extra ordinary way and was very excited. But we have to run with the time and time always doesn't cope up with our imagination. She had her exams and preparation was going on. Sreyers was a renown Vocalist so he was out of the country for Valentine's special GIG. They had a big argument going on since the starting of Valentine's calendar 7th of February cause she was not able to balance both her professional life and personal life together along with the pressure of Board exams.

Every couple were enjoying and these two were into dark phase of love. Sreyers went beyond the track and was adding allegations to Origin on her face. She stood quiet the whole time because she did not want to ruin his show. Origin knows that they both are fire signs and if the arguments become two way then it would worsen up the situation so she remained calm and patient saving the moment.

But there was never a day when they didn't meet each other. Sreyers was thanking her for painful gifts everyday of Valentine's Celebrating calendars. Even with all those hectic days, both had to stay on phone the whole night to get good sleep. There is a different kind of love story going on inbetween them.

But the silence of Origin for good cause of Sreyers was killing him and had compelled him to take the relationship into a serious fight till February 13th where the sparks faded away, calls and messages had minimized all of sudden. Feelings had started fading away. Sreyers was acting like he doesn't care anymore and he's into a phase like he can't move smoothly on this relationship with his behaviour. They never had any fights before. This was their first fight extended for really long. Love calendar had become a fight calendar.

She was very confused and frustrated and the clock showed..

11:55 PM, February 13th

Her heart started beating even faster with the running hands of clock. She was expecting something very special from him. At the same time she was well prepared before to stay strong and focus on her books even if her instinct fails to be real. She calmed herself that he would be in his show and won't get time to wish or something like that.

It was 11:57pm and phone rang..

"INCOMING CALL" by him.

Yay! Finally, she became very happy, her whole body was shaking cause of over excitement.

She picked up the call with shaky hands and he said; "Are you not asleep yet?" in a low tone and her excitement slowly fell downwards and in a normal tone

she replied;"No, I was into books"

"Oh! Okay we just had our dinner now we will be back to hotel room, sleep on time"; Him

"Sure! Goodnight"; Her

"Goodnight"; Him

Origin with lots of courage;"Hap...

Phone's hung up and clock tower showed 12:00 am.

She got numb and was very disappointed.

Everything went blank. Her phones were still on her ear. She got froze on the same position for a long time. A wish from her academic friends Groupchat message alert her to get back into sense, She tried to be normal and started reading the words written on her Chemistry book, everything got blurry, bubbly vision and slowly became crystal clear as those two drops of eyefull tears fell down on the page. Even strong people sometimes reach their limits and get into a breaking point. She felt like she has broken down into pieces and was completely devastated, all of a sudden the world has collapsed. She always believed in positiveness and had thought all those fight that had been started from the starting of Valentine's Calendar would end at the Valentine's day but didn't work. She started having real ache on her chest cause she could not handle the fact that her first Valentine's day would go this way. Even waited for the call of apology and a wish but didn't happen.

12:10 AM,

She called him by herself..

Phone was ringing...

No answer...

Again redialled..

And this time his guitarist picked up the call and said he's been to washroom.

And It was already too late. She picked up all her broken pieces and wiped off tears and made bed for herself somehow and thought a sleep will make her feel better and was just about to rest her head on pillow...

"INCOMING VIDEO CALL"

12:15PM

And BOOM!!!

Red balloons, lights, red roses and full of decorations and a beautiful red velvet cake with a note "Wishing my babe our first Valentine's Day"

She cried again but this time it was the tears of joy!

Later she realized that the place where Sreyers was staying is 15 minutes late with the time of Origin's. Actually he wished her at his right time 12:00 AM.

And they wished each other a very Happy Valentine's Day with a kiss and bright smiles on their faces with lots of joy and happiness.

And they talked the whole night on phone and cleared each and everything. Sreyers apologized for crossing the limits and congratulated her for passing the test of Patience. She refused to accept it and confessed everything that she was doing before the call, the game of impatience cause of time differences. Right after hearing this, Sreyers could not stop laughing and started laughing so loud that he accidentally disturbed the deep sleep of his tired Guitarist friend. After 14 seconds of awkward silence both of them giggled and started doing a whisper talk and both had a very deep and happy sleep together. That night, she realized that no matter how hard or tough the situation is we should never quit and keep on believing in our instincts with full of positiveness. Sometimes it might even trick you but sooner or later you're going to get what you deserve.

And also as we know "Not all storms come to disrupt your life, some comes to clear your path" similar to this after all those fights Sreyers and Origin stepped one step forward to the depth of love and togetherness.

THE END

God bless them!

THANKYOU !
