Diya's POV

"...Chachi I am good, and yes I and Anuraag had met to his family." I said on the phone.

"They liked you?" She asked curiously.

"I don't know but they were nice to me ..so I guess they liked me..." I replied hesitantly.

"I think Anuraag is here...so I will talk to you tomorrow?" I said.

"Of course dear, take care."

___

"Anuraag?"

"Diya, why are you awake this late?"

"You weren't here, so I was worried, and you also left in hurry in the morning.." I replied.

"You were worried...about me?" His words sounded surprised.

"Yeah." I replied.

"Oh, I have to tell you something—I am planning to take you some amazing places here...and we are moving out for a bit, in my cousin's house. So if you need any help with packing, let me know?" He said.

"So when we are leaving exactly?" I asked curiously.

"A day after tomorrow,"

"Okay."

________

I woke up in the morning with immense pain in my abdomen, was I cramping? probably.

I tried to make no sound, while looking for pads. I used my intuition to guided myself to the washroom, quietly. Even though it wasn't easy for me, to walk without my cane, and few times i did bumped into the nightstand near my bed before entering the washroom.

Anuraag asked me am I okaythis morning while we having breakfast, but I can't tell him that I am on my period, it would be so weird if I would tell him. So I just Lied to him that I have head ache.

When I heard, Anuraag leaving the apartment, and going for business meeting, I instantly unfolded my cane and walked to the kitchen, I searched for "relief hot pack" but couldn't find in the cabinets. I couldn't even take any painkiller medicine as I can't see. I sat on the floor, I was crying, missing my aunt who would have helped me, in this situation, but here I am alone in a foreign country.

"Will you stop crying to yourself, your nose is so red."

I shifted from where I was sitting as I was caught off guard.

"Listen Diya, you know how you look when you cry?" Anuraag said.

"How do I look? I asked suddenly feeling self cautious about my appearance.

"Red Tomato!!" He laughed.

I frowned at him, "you must be a potato then!" I stood up abruptly.

"Careful, or you will hurt your self." His voice soften.

I stopped when he held my hand. "So are you going tell me why were you crying, or not?"

"I am homesick." I replied.

"Homesick eh!? But for some reason I find that hard to believe, there is more isn't it?" He asked again.

" Diya ,Even though I have known you for a little time, but for me it's enough to know when your are lying or not. Some times I feel a little hurt when you don't tell me your problems, or share your thoughts with me." He said.

"I don't think there is anything to share—

"Wrong! Tell me what you used to do when you were with your family or friends in free time, any hobbies or may be something more artistic." He interrupted in denial.

"I-I used listen movies with my family and when I was 13 I used dance but....I stopped dancing...when my best friend, Aarohi left..."

I saw sadness all over her face, it was clear that she was struggling to open up about her friend. There must be some serious reason that she didn't talk about Aarohi, I wondered who this Aarohi is.

But right now I need to divert her mind from this topic to something else.

"Jiya has bunch of collection of movie VCDs in the store room, if you want we can watch—I mean you can listen I can describe the movie scenes to you?" I asked hesitantly.

"I would love that." She smiled.

I sat on the right side of couch, meanwhile I brought her some essentials.

" Diya take this, heat pack, it will help with abdomen pain. And eat these chocolates, they will also help you to reduce the pain."

"How do you know?!" She asked, surprisedly.

"Just an instinct, any way, what movie do you want to watch, we have "The wolf of wall street", "She's all that", "Clueless" "Titanic", "Ten things I hate about you" "How to lose a guy in 10 days" "sleepless in Seattle." They all are rom com, except "The wolf of Wall Street." So which one do you want?" I asked.

"Umm—I think—how about Titanic" She replied.

"On it!" I smiled.

Though I never watch this movie, but there is first time for everything.

I played the movie.

The movie starts with a opening scene where a guy name Lovett is searching for treasure in the Ship called the Titanic that is sinked in the depth of the North Atlantic ocean.

He founds a safe, which he thought, that contains treasure but in reality it contains a painting of a woman wearing a necklace..later in the story an old woman name Rose, claims to be the same woman in the painting.

She tells her story how she was all set to married a wealthy guy name called Cal, but later in the story she meets Jack Dawson whose an artist and a poor guy. Now she have two options either to chose to marry Cal, or be with her true love.

"Why are they are not speaking anything?" Diya poked my arm with her finger, whilst munching on chocolate.

How do I tell her that they making out in a parked car, on the ship and now there is classic hand smudged on foggy window.

I glanced at her, awkwardly.

"Diya, did you hear that sound?"

"What sound?!" She asked immediately.

"Umm-I guess it was our neighbor never mind, —Now Rose and jack running on the boat." I exclaimed changing subject quickly.

"You are being weird, Anuraag...but anyway, tell me more." She said.

As I began the narration of the movie to her, she listened me very carefully, her head was resting on my arm.

"The sound effects are amazing, what's happening?" She asked curiously.

"The ship has now, hit the iceberg, as you can hear, people are screaming, running to save their life, but the life boats on the ship, are not enough for everyone....as they believed that Titanic ship "unsinkable".." I stated.

"Rose has refused to go on the life boat...and she jumped out on the ship in search of jack.

"...You jump, I jump, right jack?!" Rose said.

"Oh my god, are they going to die?!" Diya asked.

When I narrated the ending where jack helps to get Rose on the door, and dies himself while saving her, by freezing in cold ocean and his body drowns in the depth of the ocean.

I looked over to my side, I noticed few tears in her eyes, her tears were sitting on her soft cheeks, I felt an urge to wipe her tears, but she did it herself.

I continued telling her the last part where old Rose dies in her bed, and then scene transition once where jack asked Rose to meet by the clock when they both were young.

The movie ended, but now, I was looking at Diya, who was crying, I rested my arm on her shoulder pulling her into my embrace, wrapping my other hand around her. She placed her hand in my chest, and her head rested on my shoulder, we both stayed like that for a while. I didn't move a bit, and we both end up being sleeping on the couch in the same position.
