He wanted to speak, but not a single word came out of his mouth.
After some time, he was finally able to talk.
"I...i...." he paused, closing his eyes.
Aastha could see how difficult it was for him to speak about it.

Aastha wondered what he did that ended everything.
Prayas and Sati had already graduated from college. On her birthday, he had thought of confessing his love for her. Sati had thrown a party at her house. He was both nervous and excited. Collecting all his courage, he went to the party. In the house, he searched for her everywhere, but she was nowhere to be seen. Prayas asked her relatives about her, but nobody could tell where she was. After waiting for her like forever, he went to the backyard. The backyard seemed empty, so he decided to go back inside when he heard people shouting and clapping.
