For her love meant everything...from Sharukh khan's DDLJ to Leo nardo's Titanic. Yes she had just celebrated her eighteenth birthday and was preying to God for some handsome hunks in her new college.: p

She is Namrata. A girl who is lifeline of her family, her mothers darling, her sisters angel and obviously her fathers sweetheart, she is 'Nami' to her friends. Her friends Mona Lisa is her school buddy, and both are SRK, s fan, With eyes full of dream for their new life.

Before coming to present scenario...let me give a brief intro of Nami's life.]

Like any other teenage girl Nami and her friend Mona are movie buffs, day dreamer, full of life. They have completed their schooling with flying colors and now they are headed for Engineering college. They are excited for their new beginning as they are moving to Delhi from their home town Panth Nagar.



Present Day: (Girls hostel)

They had taken admission. Their parents were gone.They are left alone in their hostel. They were excited about their college. Nami was much friendlier and she can mix with people easily. She made quite a good number of friends easily.

Nami: 'Mona, I am excited about my first class.We will meet boys. What happened, u look sad? '

Mona: 'Nami, I am missing home yaaru....but yeah I am excited about the new class. 'and she hugged her and smiled.



Soon, Mona and Nami made their own group of friends.But Nami was still in her dream world was searching for her 'The One'.Yes, and that day came soon.

College:

In chemistry lab when Nami, s group was announced, she realized she was the single girl in her group. Other four are guys, she did not even knew. She was sad. But she didn't knew these people will be her lifeline for ever.

Nami was fast in making friends. The guys were 'Soumya', 'Subho', 'Rahul', 'Surya'.Out of the four...Nami's eyes was on subho.Behind his big spectacle she found something that she cant explain. She felt something different. She didn't felt butterfly in her stomach, neither violin was playing or wind blew...just something inside her changed. She didn't believed in love at first sight. But what she felt, she felt for his black innocent eyes. His cute sweet smile. His shyness, she fell in love with him in one moment. She rushed to Mona as she was not sure this was real for her. She had deep intention to be friends with her. Slowly, from lab mate they became friends. Exchanged numbers, like good old days they messaged each other. He smiled when she smiles...and then one fine morning..



Subho: 'Nami, I don't knew I will ever tell you this.Personally I am very shy with girls. I never had anyone as special u are in life.You made me comfortable, you make me smile...with your sweet cute puppy face. I don't want you. I need you. I love you Shona'.

Nami was in tears, she was waiting fr this day from the very first day when she saw him. And she just cried. Her tears gave the answer to all his questions.

Like any other teenage couple, Soon night call became regular habits, library became their favorite place...as it was empty all the time. Soon days became months...Subho the shy boy. Became the most popular boy of college. He became the topper of the class...his life was around his family, his Shona and studies.

But bad phase came in this perfect story...



4th year:

It was campusing time. All MNC s were coming for recruitment. All were sure that Subho will grab the opportunity but destiny played differently this time...

subho couldn't cleared the apti round...and Namis condition was much worse. She couldn't even sat for few MNCs coz of her less attendance.Soon, the perfect story was gone. Subho started drinking, smoking and yelling on her Shona. Nami could understand his condition but more she talk with him. More it turned worse.

Namis days and night became same. She hugged her teddy and slept every night crying thinking what have I done wrong? . She preyed to God that if her Subho gets a job she will go and visit vaisnya devi in bare feet.

And then slowly Subho stopped talking with her. He was same subho who used to call her every night just to say 'I love u'.Subho started online flirting with other girls. Nami heard it but she had believed that her subho cant do this. He was her first love. He was the one with whom she has seen numerous sunsets holding hands, he who hugged him for the first time.He is her subho who had shared with her the best moments of their life. Nami couldn't understand what was her fault.She tried to talk with subho, but he yelled and left her alone. But she knew deep inside that Her subho loves her, just he needs a job.

And then the day came....

On 5 th April Subho got the job in Tech Mahindra.nami s life's best day was that. She didn't got a job but she was the happiest person on the world. Her subho has finally got his worth. She was dancing like a child in the canteen and shouting 'My subho has got the job'. She went to vaisnya devi the next week to fulfill her promise.

And then subho changed....Subho again confessed his love to her. But this time Nami was indifferent. She was trying to judge him, his reactions...what was he up to. When time was not with him, she was there but he refused her. And now Subho wants her.

Nami was confused and heart broken. And situation was worsted when name s parents came to visit her. Subho didn't turned up, He told he will not meet her parents. He is busy with his friends. Nami was shocked to hear that. Because she had told hundred time to subho that her mother want to meet him. And subho was also willing to meet her. And now he is not meeting her parents and he is busy with his friends.

Nami was heart broken.She did something what she regrets now whole life.

She went out with one of her guy friend and she kissed him on cheeks. Why she has done that she don't know. Either she was angry on subho or something else.It was not for love that was sure.

College end day:

Nami wanted subho to tell the truth but she didn't had the courage to speak. Nami felt lost. Subho was happy with his new life and least he cared about Nami.

Nami was trying her best to get a job with guilt in her heart.

One fine day Nami confessed the truth to subho over phone.

That was the last time she had heard his voice...it was: 'It's all over'.

Just two words and her world shatterd.She felt like killing herself. She loved her subho a lot.she was asking for a second chance. But subho didn't listened. He called her betrayer and broke all contacts.

With each passing day she was losing a little of herself, and she wrote a thousand sorry messages to him. Thousands calls and no reply.

She thought of ending her life. But then she loved him so much that she couldn't do it.

At last she fought her own battle and got a job in MNC.



Two year has passed...

Nami and subho had no contact. Today also Nami visits his fb timeline regularly and sends him a mail saying what she has done all day and a sorry.Nami still loves her subho and wishes if she has not done that stupid mistake, he might be with her right now in her arms.



Present Day:

Nami came to know her subho is not her anymore. He has got someone special in his life. Nami was in tears after hearing it from Mona. She cried all day and at last she texted him 'Heard that You have really move on, Congratulation, I am happy for you. :) '.(that was the last text she send him)



Nami woke up....It was a bright morning. She smiled and whispered, 'I will love you always my subho no matter what. You are happy, so I am happy'.



She started getting ready for her office. That was the best day of her life.







Love doesn't mean you have to hold on someone. It means giving freedom, respecting someone's happiness. It means smiling by cherishing all your moments. Love is larger beyond saying 'I love You'.
