Hello I'm back...within 12 hours and I just want to be quiet frank and tell that I'm not satisfied with the response so as far as this is concerned I'd need atleast 20 reviews to continue. So this chapter is clearly a flashback of what happened. Komplikovan zpsob' the place where Siyali lives is a Czech word for the hard way'. So please don't leave without giving your opinion I'm gonna take a friends advice and reduce the explicit content.#Starsfireflies I suggest that you read the prologue of a thin line before you start so that you could understand the ending. Chapter 1 Holding on and letting go Flashback She walked through the corridor to satisfy her thirst, it was half past eleven and she' not supposed to roam the corridor at this time, but her hiccups grew every minute and considering the fact that Krissane doesn't like people who sabotage her beauty sleep' she had to walk the corridors, even if it meant breaking the rules and she finally had an excuse to roam the corridors at night. She strolled slowly down the stairs, this reminded her of the time when she twisted her leg near the end of the staircase and Siddharth had to carry her. Strange, the principal office lights were turned on, which means either Urmila or Anvesha Rajput' are there. Anvesha Rajput was pretty old and its' not healthy for her to stay up late, Urmila on the other hand was capable, plotting against her so that she would stay away from her new-found Rajput son, little did she know that she had captured the attention of the other Rajput, but she didn't know. She knew eavesdropping is an un-punishable sin, that doesn't make it right. But how could she avoid the topic if it's about her best friend. "That silly girl has got Utkarsh wrapped around her fingers" she wondered who it was, as far as she knows there's no other girl in Utkarsh' life except Rose maybe, but she doesn't exist. But why does she care about Utkarsh, as far as she knew Urmila never got along with charity cases, but things didn't go unnoticed ever since her display at the boxing match and how terrified she was during the earthquake about Utkarsh, her curiosity grew day by day, maybe it's just a momentary affection, maybe she doesn't care about Utkarsh at all "Of course I care you idiot, he's my son" The words triggered something in her brain, Utkarsh was her son, it can't be possible Utkarsh was the sweetest person she ever knew and Urmila was far from it. After all those years, Utkarsh cried because he didn't have a mother, though he had the frog, deep down he knew that it wasn't true and the last memory she had of his mother is when she left him with her. The image was clear before her eyes when she left Utkarsh with her in the middle of nowhere, that's where mother superior found them, in the middle of the street. She should have known by now all those years when Utkarsh cried his lungs out, but she held on tight because she was supposed to. She should have known, but the Urmila she knew was shy, kind and good, but she was an entirely different person. She grasped, and she knew that Urmila heard it she didn't made if for the run, because she knew she would never succeed, so she stood her ground, suddenly she felt a hand pulling her back, it was dark and she couldn't put a name on that face, but she was certain it was a he. He trapped her between his arms and his face was so close that he could feel her breath on his cheek. "Is anybody here" Urmila stepped out of her office and begun to stroll down the halls, the mysterious guy buried his head deep until their bodies were touching in the most inappropriate manner, his head rested on her shoulder and her face was buried deep in the nape of his neck. Urmila returned to her conversation on the phone, as she was more concerned about the person on the other line. The person pulled her further into the darkness until they were out the residence. "Are you mad?!!" the light from the moon bounced on his face and she was finally able to put a name, Siddharth Rajput. The arrogant son of the school' principal who managed to get everybody on his side except maybe Siyali, he even managed to tag along with Parth and Utkarsh, hell, he managed to convince Niti. But they were pure good intentions, but considering the fact that he has been giving her all those mixed signals, things got awkward and she just knew they can't be friends. "What are you do-" the theory just struck her and the things which were blue to her once finally made sense. She should have found out earlier but she doubt Siddharth knew it all by know, but knowing that Urmila was a secretive person she doubt it. "Do you know that-th-th" He looked confused, she won't blame him though and if anything she'd blame Urmila. "Know what" She decided to break the silence, someone had to stop this game and sadly it had to be her, she and Siddharth never got along and she knew it. No matter how badly she wanted them to be nemesis, circumstances brings them together, or rather fate "That you and Utkarsh are brothers" She found it hard to breathe and tears began to roll down her face, she can't explain why but they just did "Siyali-" "I should have known, considering all the-" she panicked, worse, she panicked in front of her nemesis, and she just found out that he is the brother of her best friend. "Siyali?!!" he held her by her arms and pushed her to the nearest pillar, he knew she was scared but something was better than nothing, she perfectly pulled out the avoiding game unlike him, he just wanted her to know how he felt. He liked her from the very beginning, when he saved Utkarsh' frog and considering how much time they spend together, he felt like he was the only one who was experiencing these mixed emotions, though he succeeded at the beginning, by putting up so many wall, with his cool attitude, none of them worked when he was with her and most of the time he liked the way he felt. Though she claims Utkarsh is her friend, it's not practical. Atleast for him, sometimes he wishes that he was Utkarsh so that he'd have Siyali to himself. Even if it meant living in the orphanage and going through what he went. He can't explain why he feels what he's feeling now. Ever since childhood he was taught to obey, abide by the rules, attain success, live up to his family's name, but with her he feels different, all he wanted to do is please her, become the man she wanted. He liked the fact that she cares like a mother and he had noticed how he behaves around Niti and Utkarsh, sometimes he wishes it was him. She tempted him each time without doing anything, even right now all he wanted to do is shower her with his kisses, but she wouldn't like it and he respects it. That's it he felt like she should know it and finally he blurted "I know" He knew from the very beginning, the moment when Siyali let go of his hand, while she held on tight to Utkarsh, that's why he never liked Utkarsh, because he was closer to her than him, you can call this jealousy because that's what it is. He fed his anger while he punched him in the ring, but still he didn't win, because he knew that it wouldn't get him her, but still he punched, he punched make him realize what he took from him all those years ago and yet he managed to get all the attention in the end. It wasn't fair, according to him, Utkarsh had to be told to hold on tight while that's all he did, hold on tight. He knew that if he lets go he won't be seeing her for a long time, so he didn't let go, she left him. She returned after all these years, blossomed into a new leaf, but she didn't remember him, how could she forget, he repeated the same question to himself numerous times and was always left unanswered. But for him, she was all he remembered. "You really don't remember do you" he knew the answer but he asked anyways, she had forgotten by now. She perfectly remembered the boy she held on tight but she forgot the boy she let go, as far she knew he was shy and he never let go of anybody's hand while walking. He never disobeyed anyone and he was her favorite. And then it suddenly clicked. "You...Your Siddharth" realization struck her and all these mixed feeling and the attraction finally made sense. In that moment, she forgot the high school bad boy who was her nemesis, and pictured the innocent boy who held on to her. Suddenly she felt guilty, she felt guilty because she let him go, she felt guilty because she didn't hold on tight like he did but mostly...she felt bad that she forgot while that's all he held onto. He had that look, the kind of look that said he was relieved and frankly he was. He was happy; he finally knew that she knew what he did. There were tears in his eyes he was overwhelmed with happiness. The hand that gripped her hard softened and bought her in for a hug and the best part is she leaned into his touch, his grip tightened within seconds. She buried her face deep into his chest and cried harder since she had a lot of information to process that night he on the other hand, was more than happy, he caressed her hair until her breathing slowed down and loosened his grip around her and finally they pulled away, unwillingly. "Good night, Siyali" She didn't reply but she smiled. She just smiled. Hope you like it Peace out. -Shakthi Chapter 3-http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4373286&PID=122646998&#p122646998
