Sometimes it's not you who has the power to design your destiny.

"If it's love it has to be beautiful, if it's not !!! It was never love."
Well ! Sometimes all we need to relate is to get emotionally involved in a story. I am sure everyone must have gone through some incident which has changed their view about something or someone forever. This is a story about a sweet innocent girl 'Tiya' and her first love ' Rohit'. Both were equally emotionally involved, but what changed everything was not expected. 
Like every other single girl, Tiya was enjoying her Sunday evening with a soothing music and dreaming of her favorite actor. All she could think about was her strong crush on him. To break this moment, a message popped up on her phone saying "Hi !! How are you?".  She ignored for few minutes but at the same time she was curious to know who has messaged her from a unknown number. So, She replied "Hi, Who's this ?"  Remember that was the time of SMS, no whatsapp or any other internet messaging app. On other side, a tall and handsome guy rushed to check his phone kept on this bed in excitement of getting a reply from a girl whom he has messaged anonymously. He didn't tell his name instead he said " You don't know me. I've seen you in the coaching class and managed to get your number.Wanna be friends !!." Tiya got annoyed and replied in a rude way " Oh really! but I don't like to be friends with unknown people. bye" This broke his heart for a while. Still He tried for few more months by sending messages and being nice with her. Greetings changed to conversations and then to daily chit-chats. Eventually,  Tiya started liking the way Rohit treated her and yes! she was in love with him. They decided to meet each other for the first time, they wanted to feel the love by looking into glittering eyes of their loved one, which is challenging the infinity of universe. They were together peacefully, holding hands & talking about their future. To break the stereotype of proposing , Tiya asked "Will you marry me?". Rohit said "Yes !" without wasting a second. after spending 45 minutes with each other, Rohit left for his work and Tiya went home as she bunked her coaching class to meet him. Yes ! Rohit and Tiya fell in love before they could know their age. She was 16, He was 29. This was not a matter of regret for both of them. But definitely, for their families it must be a DISASTER,.. they knew. They never involved families till the day Rohit told Tiya about his old & sick mother in some other town with whom he planned to live for 5 days to take care of her. Tiya was worried about his mother and messaged him "what are you doing? It's been 3days we haven't talked, I hope mom is fine. I miss you...love you." he replied " yeah ! love you too. I'll call you after 8PM. miss you".  At 8:30PM Tiya got a call from his phone.Surprisingly it was not Rohit, It was a women !!! Tiya got scared and remained silent till the women asked " who is this ? why you've sent this message to my husband ? I think you've got a wrong number, as the one you've messaged had lost his mother at the age of 10". Tiya said "OK ! I am sorry, I should have checked the number."  
This was a shock for Tiya, Still she wanted to talk to Rohit about it. Somehow she managed to wait for few days. Rohit had no courage to face Tiya, His friend called her and told "Rohit is married from last 3 years and he was out of town to celebrate  his wedding anniversary." She could only disconnect the call at  that moment. She cried...Shattered! Broken! lost!
Days passed but nothing could heal her wounds. A stone had been sitting on her heart. she had shed lots of tears over him.she lost her sleep and every emotion which was beautiful for her someday. She never fell in love again. The grip he had on her heart got never loosen. She hates falling in love, She hates to trust anyone. He still had a choke chain on her heart.
