Agli shaam, Naina ek café mein baithi thi — bas time pass karne ke liye.
Tabhi ek ladka uske paas aaya.
"Excuse me… yahan seat khali hai?"
Naina ne sir hilaya — haan mein.
Us ladke ka naam tha Aarav.
Aarav ek software developer tha, par usse logon ko observe karne ka shauk tha.
Usne notice kiya ki Naina udaas hai.
"Kuch problem hai?" usne casually poocha.
Pehle toh Naina ne ignore kiya… par phir pata nahi kyun, usne sab bata diya.
Aarav ne dhyaan se suna… phir muskuraaya.
"Tum problem nahi ho… tum confusion ho."
Naina hairaan reh gayi.
