Who‌ ‌said‌ ‌that‌ ‌you‌ ‌find‌ ‌love‌ ‌after‌ ‌marriage?‌ ‌Well‌ ‌the‌ ‌person‌ ‌who‌ ‌said‌ ‌might‌

‌

have‌ ‌gotten‌ ‌lucky.‌ ‌I,‌ ‌however,‌ ‌am‌ ‌an‌ ‌unlucky‌ ‌one.‌

‌

Okay,‌ ‌now‌ ‌I‌ ‌definitely‌ ‌wasn't‌ ‌wishing‌ ‌or‌ ‌pining‌ ‌to‌ ‌fall‌ ‌in‌ ‌love‌ ‌or‌ ‌feel‌ ‌anything‌

‌

for‌ ‌‌him.‌

‌

I‌ ‌wasn't‌ ‌even‌ ‌looking‌ ‌for‌ ‌friendship.‌ ‌But‌ ‌I‌ ‌was‌ ‌looking‌ ‌for‌ ‌a‌ ‌good-natured‌

‌

relationship.‌ ‌You‌ ‌know‌ ‌where‌ ‌you‌ ‌can‌ ‌talk‌ ‌to‌ ‌each‌ ‌other‌ ‌without‌ ‌killing‌ ‌each‌

‌

other‌ ‌in‌ ‌your‌ ‌mind‌ ‌yet‌ ‌you‌ ‌don't‌ ‌get‌ ‌into‌ ‌anything‌ ‌deeper‌ ‌than‌ ‌that?‌ ‌That‌

‌

kind‌ ‌of‌ ‌relationship.‌

‌

But‌ ‌they‌ ‌say‌ ‌don't‌ ‌expect‌ ‌too‌ ‌much‌ ‌otherwise‌ ‌you‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌disappointed.‌

‌

Well‌ , I,‌ ‌too‌ ‌was‌ ‌dismayed‌ ‌when‌ ‌we‌ ‌flew‌ ‌to‌ ‌London.‌ ‌Well‌ ‌even‌ ‌before‌ ‌that.‌

‌

He‌ ‌was‌ ‌back‌ ‌to‌ ‌being‌ ‌cold‌ ‌and‌ ‌indifferent.‌ ‌The‌ ‌Sumit‌ ‌I‌ ‌knew‌ ‌back‌ ‌in‌ ‌Dehra‌

‌

had‌ ‌disappeared.‌ ‌I‌ ‌hated‌ ‌to‌ ‌admit‌ ‌but‌ ‌I‌ ‌kind‌ ‌of‌ ‌missed‌ ‌it.‌

‌

I‌ ‌sometimes‌ ‌think‌ ‌that‌ ‌were‌ ‌we‌ ‌meant‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌married?‌
