"Umm..I was wondering if you could tell me..uh--is Elena getting...engaged?"

"What?" She asked in disbelief.

It was as if she was still trying to process what I just said.

"Whoever told you that must not be in their right state of mind. Because I would have known if she was getting engaged. I am her best friend after all. So to be exact, it's not true. Your sources are not trustworthy." She says.

I knew it.
I had a feeling that she was lying.

But the question is.. why?
Why is she lying about something like that?

I guess she just really doesn't want to be with me.
Does she hate me that much that she would lie to me just to get away from me.

"Are you sure Aarohi?"

"Cent percent. You can ask her yourself if you don't believe me." She says.

And her confidence tells me that she is speaking the truth. Which means my suspicions were right.

"No need. Thank you." I say.

I feel a spark of joy inside me knowing that she isn't getting engaged.

But my mind is still stuck on one thing.
Why is she lying to me time and again about all the things?

"Thank you Aarohi."

"Anytime, Saad bhai."

I walk away, this time with a new resolve.

I don't know what it is keeping her away from me.

But this time I am not backing down.
I will fight every single obstacle of our way.
This time I won't give up on her.
On whatever it is between us.

This time I would make her mine.
Once and for all.

Maybe she was lying 6 years ago as well. I cannot be sure with her now. But one thing is for certain.

I would go to any limits this time to keep her. These 6 years have taught me one thing that's that I cannot live without her.

She is the centre to my orbit.
She is the Earth to my moon.
The Sun to my Earth.

And if I am right, she cannot live without me as well. I know she still feels something for me.
The slight shiver of her body whenever she is in my vicinity.
The thundering of her heart beat which I can still hear.
