But this silence was for sure not comforting or making things better… so one of them had to speak up… Nisha did…
“I am not really happy these days…”
*Shit I have to drive back 30 kms and she had to pick up this time to talk…*”Why what happened?”
“Oh C’mon… don’t tell me that you do not know what is happening. Things have changed between us Aviral, they are not the same anymore… we do not talk much… the conversations have dried down… there is no excitement in your voice when I call, which happens most of the time… and you are telling me that you do not know what is happening?”
“I did not mean that, I am not prepared to get into a discussion right now…”
“Then when Aviral, we have been avoiding to talk about it for a long time now…”
“Umm… sometime later… but not today”…*I should not be doing this, this really needs a talk…* “Can we talk later please?”
“Suit yourself, but I do not think that later is going to come soon…. Let’s discuss it and get it over with”
“What do you mean get it over with? Nisha, what are you thinking?”
“I am thinking that it’s better to call everything off and live our lives, if communication is not happening…What do you think?”
*This is getting worse now…* “Look things are not that bad to tell you the truth… But it looks like we do not have that kinda chemistry anymore… Something is missing, I can’t understand what… but something is. I do not feel the need to call you anymore. Not that I do not want to talk, but then whenever I pick up the phone, there is nothing to talk about… I have started looking for a reason to talk to you, and in absence of these reasons, I do not have any words to share with you…”
“I know all this Aviral, but the question is: What should be done to take care of this? Are we drifting apart to never get together again?”
“May be…. I gotta go right now. Let’s talk later.”
And the good night hug, which was more like a formality…. and the day, is over… has something of this sort happened with you ever? I guess it has… it happened with me not in its entirety though…
But then what do you do with relationships that loose the sizzle after a while… this “after a while” can be a week, a month, a year or whatever… but i think a phase like this always comes in a relationship…
What would you have done if you were Nisha or Aviral?
