Me and Aksh thought we would be spending this day together as he would most likely be leaving to Canada by tomorrow night.
But as soon as we woke up, Aksh got a call from his grandpa asking him to set all the documents required and wrap up his work in India as they would be leaving today night itself.
Aksh dropped me at the dorms and went to the Office. He asked me not to come to the airport as it would be too hard for him to leave me. But I could'nt listen to him as I would definitely not blow up the chance to spend last few minutes with him.
So, I called Pranay and asked if he could pick us up from the dorms so that we all can be present at the airport to send off Jay and Aksh. He naturally agreed.
I have a great bond with Aksh's friends but Jay is more closer to me than the rest. I can share anything and everything with Jay. So him and Aksh going away is giving me a terrible gut feeling.
As the day progressed I grew more anxious as we had never been away for so long. Even though I met Aksh a year ago, he became an integral part of my life and now, I don't even know how I could manage without him.
Once Pranay came to pick us up, we all started our journey to the airport which is an hour drive.

Once we reached the airport, Karthik was already waiting for us in the parking lot. We altogether went inside to send off Aksh and Jay.
Aksh didn't know we were here and he specifically warned me not to come to the airport. Will he be angry if he see's me? What if he doesn't talk to me?
After walking for 10 minutes I spotted Aksh's muscular frame. He did not see us yet as his back was facing us.
Once we approached him, Piggy tapped on his back and he turned. My heart thumped in my chest.
He seemed surprised to see us all at the airport but his gaze hardened when his eyes landed on me.
He stormed towards me, held my hand and dragged me out to the empty parking lot.
Once he made sure we were alone, he then crashed his lip with mine kissing me with all the passion and love, consuming me as whole.
"I told you not to come here", he spoke breaking the kiss. "I want to spend some time with you even if it's just 5 minutes", I replied still afraid if he could get angry at my defiance.
"Baby, you are making it hard for both of us. I don't have that kind of strength to leave you here and go away. Why can't you understand that?", he said showing his vulnerable side.
I hugged him tightly unable to detach myself from him. It was too much for my sensitive heart.
His kisses didn't stop. He started kissing me every where like he was making up for the next 4 months of our separation.
He lifted me up and made me sit on the hood of a car and we both basically started eating each others faces.
Just then, his phone rung indicating that it's time for him to leave.
He corrected my dress and hair kissing me for one last time before we both went in.
Jay and grandpa were already waiting for Aksh. As soon as he joined them they all started walking towards their flight as they were pretty late.
He turned back time to time for each step that he took, looking at me and giving me a forced smile then disappearing into the hallway.
A sob erupted from me unable to keep my emotions in check. My friends consoled me and we all started our journed towards boys apartment as we will not be allowed in the dorms due to our curfew.
Me and girls slept in a room. My thoughts drifting back to Aksh again and again.
Gradually I drifted off to sleep.

(Monday)
I went to college as usual with my friends. Aksh told that he would message me by noon i.e, once he landed.
I attended the classes as usual and had our lunch in the cafeteria. Kunal joined and he was elated to know Aksh will be not joining us for 4 months. Guess he was not particularly a fan of Aksh!!
As promised Aksh called me while I was in the cafeteria. He told me that they landed safely and were currently trying to take rest.
We talked a bit and I retired for my classes after lunch.
By the time classes were done, Pranay dropped me at my dorms and bid me a goodbye.
I miss Aksh.
I just went to my dorm did some laundry, eat some snacks, did all the assignments and was waiting for his call. I know we have the time difference and it would be a huge minus point for us but I am determined that we will work it out.
And as agreed Aksh video called me at 9:00PM.
Aksh: Hey baby, what are you doing? Had dinner?
Sanju: yeah, I did. I am just about to sleep. What bout you?
Aksh: Jet lagged and Sanjana deprived.
He said winking at me making ne blush.
Sanju: Aksh, its hard you know, staying away from you. I missed you today. I don't know how I can do this for the next four months.
My mask broke off before him as I confessed what I was feeling.
Aksh: Sanju, I know. Even I miss you a lot. But time will fly away and before you know, I will come back to my girl and I will not leave your side even for a second, I promise. Now, give me a smile?
He said making me smile at him. He looks tired in the call so I asked him to sleep and we both bid our goodbyes and drifted off to sleep.
*******************
Today is friday which means it's been 5 days since Aksh left for Canada.
These 5 days has been the same, it was nothing new. Classes, labs, assignments, all the college work occupied my days.
My friends have been trying so hard to cheer me up. Every day they plan something or the other to take my mind off Aksh's absence.
They planned games like Thambola, monopoly, ludo, snake and ladder etc and try to keep me distracted.
Pranay and Karthik said that we will go to a movie this weekend. Hmm another attempt to cheer me up!
Today, I was going to the art block as I was yet to submit my cancelation form. I decided that I would not take art classes anymore as both courses were too much for me to handle. So after canceling my art course, I need to submit these papers to the department head.
Art block is actually isolated from the rest of college. It is situated at the farthest end of our campus and pretty deserted. There were only handful of students that actually take this course and most of them take it up as a hobby.
Pranay offered to escort me to the art block but I declined as he and Karthik has to leave and check up on Singhania technologies in the absence of Aksh. So I didn't want to hold him back and assured him that I would manage.
I went to the art block and submitted my cancelation form.
As I was returning back walking in the corridors, a hand suddenly clasped my mouth from my back and pulled me into an empty classroom preventing me from screaming.
The person locked the classroom door making my heart drop. No no no, this can't be happening, please lord, please.
"I am about to remove my hand so don't scream and if you scream you will not like the consequences", the person said and I am pretty sure I heard this voice somewhere.
I nodded frantically ready to get away from that person who was holding me hostage.
The person removed his hand and I immediately turned my body towards him.
My whole body shivered with disgust looking at him.
"Please let me out? I will not tell anyone about this act. I swear, please", I begged as the person stood as a barrier between me and the door.
"Tsk tsk tsk, No hi? No hello? Didn't you remember me darling? Do you want me to refresh your memory? It's been too long since I last saw you, you are looking as beautiful as ever", he said checking me out.
Bile rose in my throat due to his cheap words.
"I heard your boyfriend left you alone in this big bad world and went away. Isn't he afraid of what this cruel world would do to his innocent little girlfriend?", he asked mocking me.
Nobody knows me and Aksh were dating, but how does he know that? How can he know the secret?
"Wondering how I got to know that you are dating? Who are you fooling darling? Its pretty obvious of how you feel for him. It's actually written on your face. So I think you have to work on perfecting your poker face?", he suggested.
"And coming to your boyfriend, it's obvious how he feels for you or should I say it's obvious from this little video, it shows how much he loves you?", he said making me frown.
What video is he talking about? And why is he meeting up with me in first place?
"What video?", I asked taking deep breaths.
"Ohhh I think your pretty boyfriend didn't tell you about the big hunt that he went on where he chased the people down who appreciated your beauty?", he asked making me more and more confused.
"I did not understand. If your dynamics with my boyfriend are not good I suggest, you please talk to him and solve it with him. Please leave me alone", I begged him.
"Now where's the fun in that darling? Boy talk is no fun. You did not even see the video yet and I know that you will beg me to meet me, once you see the video, after all he went on that big hunt for you!!", he snapped.
He was talking in riddles and I was not able to grasp anything as the fear of being alone with him is blurring my thoughts. My freedom being the top priority right now.
"Wait let me play the video for you and then we will talk. Alright darling?", he asked making me shiver in disgust due to the nickname that he has given me.
I was clueless about everything. I don't know what video is he talking about and I am not even sure if there is a video or as such or it could be a trap.
I was panicking, my actions a lot frantic, my gaze darting at the door repeatedly for the little freedom that it could offer, my breath hitching in my throat unable to contain the suffocating presence of the person before me.
"Relax sweet heart. I will not do anything to you just yet", he added the last part in whisper.
Why did he come here, what is he after? What does he want from me? How did he know about our relationship? And what video is he repeatedly referring to?
