'Regret'

The feeling that makes one feel the worst, filling the heart with all sorts of negativity, shaking up the inner self trust.

The feeling, one might not wanna choose, immediate or late, but truth's a great leveller, love it or hate.

The feeling- Of the guilt, in itself a great destroyer but yet the greatest teacher, offering the key lessons and takeaways, for the one who chooses to consider.

The feeling, often related to be the one which perturbs and breaks, but if seen, though it disturbs it awares one of it's mistakes.

And the ones who endeavour to correct those mistakes, are those who achieve the success. Success, be of the form material piece or the mental peace.

Everyone craves success, Everyone makes mistake, who doesn't? But what defines one is their approach after the mistake.

Regret while sitting back crying over the mistakes done, which doesn't change anything!

OR

Regret with your actions, making every mistakes count; Upgrading yourself with a new and better version working on each mistake, which might still not change anything but surely a-new-thing.

Now, the choice is entirely yours, Regret or Reget.

Kanishka chose Reget. Reget-what she had lost, Reset-no matter the cost.

You know he doesn't wanna look at you right?

A sharp seething pain, is what Kanishka experienced when her mind repeated Karan's words mocking her for the umpteenth time in past some minutes.

Her heart felt unusually heavy in her chest, throbbing with a passionate pain. A pain burning even more inflamed with each image her mind put forth before her eyes of a hurt Aman whose red eyes blinking back his tears, displayed just enough of how hurt and dismantled he felt that moment of her.

Every replay, felt ripping her heart into pieces building up a heavier weight of the searing guilt every moment which felt crushing deep within her, making it difficult for her to breathe calmly.

The reminiscence of everything left wretched tears flowing down her cheeks unparalleled. The muffled sobs wracked against her chest, the world front of her eyes was turning blur, but she continued driving as fast as she could biting on her quivering lips, until she reached the park.

Getting down the cycle, locking it with the cable lock she was about to barge inside quickly when her leg ceased movement pausing abrupt in the air, being questioned one last time by her mind repeating Karan's words

You know he doesn't wanna look at you right?

Closing her eyes shut, blinking back the tears clearing her blurred vision and as such her thoughts, she opened her eyes which shined with a brand new determination altogether as she murmured answering to herself

"I know, but I wanna and I'll"

Sucking in a deep breathe, sighing it out heavily through her nostrils, she nodded gazing down standing still for some seconds before raising her head stepping inside the park. Running straight towards the sunset point, going through a bunch of bushes to reach the spot, reaching where her footsteps ceased automatically and a painful smile escaped her lips.

There stood Aman having his back turned towards her, running his hand on his hair which could be figured out easily from his raised elbow, while the other rested flat on the ground. Hearing the footsteps he smiled turning his head

"I fulfilled my promise loo--", his voice dried out as his eyes fell on Kanishka who was stood at a distance from him, making him look at her confused. Rubbing his eyes with his fingers, opening it to look back at her he made himself believe it wasn't a hallucination as all the time just her thoughts drifted in his mind wishing that he could see her, and now when she stood right in front of him he doubted if it was a mirage formed by his mind.
