LOVE LINE (contd.)

But there is another friend of them who knows that Shruti likes Vaibhav. She comes to know this by an accident before Pooja said YES to Vaibhav. One day Shruti and that friend were talking about Vaibhav and Pooja when the sentence just slipped from her tongue. She just said," if I were Pooja then I'll be ready on my one foot to say YES to Vaibhav. If Pooja likes him then why she kept saying NO to him??" Her friend got the hint & insisted Shruti to tell what in her friend mind. She got shocked when she realized the whole situation. But she swears to Shruti that she will never tell this to anybody.

After this incidence, all was fine till Shruti's birthday party. When Pooja accepted Vaibhav's proposal in her birthday party and Shruti became more close to them as she helped them in their relation, the other friend feel that it's not good. And after some months she opened the secret to Pooja. At first Pooja didn't agree with this, but after some days observations and recollections of past events; she got the clear view of all things.

Now as that friend broke her promise Shruti stop talking to her. But between those 3 friends the mess was already stared. What Shruti avoided till that day came up like a huge snake!! After knowing all this Pooja just stop talking to Shruti suddenly. Though Shruti knew the reason; Vaibhav didn't know anything from the above mess so keep asking Pooja and Shruti why they both not talking to each other.

Pooja always avoided answering the question, but he kept asking. Finally one day, he forced Shruti to answer the question. Now Shruti caught in big problem; she will not be able to tell him anything though she knew the reason and she will not be able to tell him lie. But somehow she just passed the situation saying she will talk to Pooja and find out the solution.

Here when Shruti went to Pooja to tell her that she can stop talking to her but at least in front of Vaibhav do speak with her. So that Vaibhav won't ask about anything. But Pooja refused it, saying she will not talk to her again and going tell the same to Vaibhav too. As she thinks now that what Shruti did was wrong and it was her mistake that she hide her emotions. For that time Shruti accepted her mistake but explain why she kept quiet and didn't tell her feelings to anybody; as she didn't want any problem in their friendship. But the time was gone and Pooja is not ready to listened to any reason as she just keep her point of view that if now she continued their friendship Shruti may try to take away Vaibhav from Pooja. Pooja took promise from her that she will not keep any contact with Vaibhav even if he wanted to do so.

Just after that Pooja told Vaibhav the whole story and told him not to talk with Shruti. At first he too didn't ready to accept the truth, and he was not ready to break the friendship with her. He decided to meet Shruti personally though Pooja was against it. He knew how much Shruti helped them and valued it. So he went to meet her.

When he asked Shruti about what Pooja told him; Shruti told him that is true. Now he had to accept it as Shruti herself accepted it. He felt like the land beneath his feet slipped away, as he never think slightest that Shruti too can love him. But now he knows the truth!! He told her that it was wrong on her side hat she didn't tell him before, but that ok and he is not ready to break their friendship as he value her emotions and her help. But Shruti already given promise to Pooja that she will not enter in their life again. Now she caught in other problem as she didn't want to break the friendship but at the same time the promise is coming in between. She told Vaibhav not to keep friendship with her as it may cause harm to his & Pooja relations. She tried her best but he was not ready. He told he wants to keep their friendship and it will be his responsibility that Pooja won't get to know about this. Finally Vaibhav got successful and Shruti was ready to continue friendship. She is feeling good because Vaibhav didn't react as she expected; but the same time she is sad as their friend group is no more like before. After Pooja everybody stopped talking to her except Vaibhav.

What Pooja was thinking about Shruti is that right??? If not then why all friends are gone away?? Are they never cares for Shruti?? Or they were not her true friends??
