Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani

(fanfic)

Naina has been restless so she tells Kabir everything on her mind.

(Ghosted)

Few days pass. (She doesn’t remember how many because she has lost track of time)

She is walking on the road hugging her arms listening to music on her old school white earphones, the singer is in pain and sings, “You’ll come over, right?” and she realizes she isn’t in pain anymore.

How did it happen? she wonders and walks back home.

She sits on the bed wide awake and thinks about all the sleepless nights when her heart was in pain. She doesn’t realize when she dozes off.

She wakes up early morning and stares at the ceiling and the faint sunlight in her room through the half closed curtains and says out loud, “Subha hogayi.”

She gets up and realizes that she is still in love with the sunlight and always was and maybe always will be.

But life goes on, right?

Right?
