1. Present Time

Natasha's POV

"NOOO!" I scream as I jolt up from the bed while breathing heavily

I kept a hand on my chest while calming myself down.I facepalm myself in frustration while thinking

"Why can't I get over this past memories?why can't I move on?why those memories from past keep on hunting me until today?why?why can't I live peacefully?" I questioned myself

I checked the time and it was 8:30 in the morning, Which means almost breakfast time for dad.I make the bed and went to the bathroom...today was Sunday so no collage today

I came out of the bathroom. Few minutes later I went downstairs and cooked breakfast for me and my dad as he was sitting in the living room.
I slowly walk towards him and speak keeping a low voice

"Papa breakfast taiyar h" i said as he nod

"Papa breakfast is ready"

He sits on the chair and have his breakfast quitely,I also sit down and started eating my breakfast. The room was filled with awkward silence,as no one was talking. After eating he got up from his chair

"Main kahi bahar jaa raha hu, Ghar ka dhyan rakhna or kahi bahar mat jana" He says coldly as I nod

"I'm going out somewhere, take care of the house and do not go out anywhere"

Then he went outside of the house and I keep myself busy doing the household chores as he doesn't like messy things. I was in the upstairs cleaning dad's room then suddenly I heard the door bell ring. I went downstairs to open the door and I saw no one was there, I was about to go inside then I saw a beautiful golden rose bouquet was beside the door frame. I picked it up in curiosity

"Ye kon de gaya ab?" I mumbled and I look at the golden roses in curiosity

"Who gave this now?"

Then my gaze fall on a note between the flowers, I read it and it says

"I'll see you soon,Butterfly"

It also had a beautiful signature under it

My eyes widened seeing this i didn't know what to do, weather to keep these flowers or throw them. The could have hidden camera between these flowers. Who knows, I look around with a frown and found no one around. I glace down at the flowers again and the note. I lock the door of the house and walk away from the house, after reaching at a good distance,i kept the bouquet in a bench under the street light

"I'm sorry but I can't keep these,if my dad saw these he will surely kill me" i mumbled and walk away towards my house

"Who it could be?why they decided to leave a bouquet on our doorstep?what do they want?why would someone leave such a expensive bouquet on someone's doorstep just like that?why did they did that?what does that note means?" My mind was filled with these thoughts while returning home i started to fidget

I got home and headed towards the kitchen as dad still haven't arrived yet. What I saw in the kitchen shocked the hell out of me. I saw a red rose laying on the dining table I went close to it and picked it up, it didn't have any thorns,again with a note that says

"That's not fair,sweetheart.Why
did you throw my gift away?" With the same signature

I started to panic seeing all these,I look around getting worried about who it could be and who dared to broke into out house while I was away

I crushed the rose and throw it away with the note in the dustbin.I closed all the windows and doors not wanting to take the risk of someone entering our house again.

I sit on the couch in nervousness thinking what will happen if dad comes to find out all these,I was fidgiting and was sweating then i flinched with the sudden ring of the door bell,i was hesitant to open the door first but I eventually open the door and saw dad standing in the doorstep annoyed.

"Itna der lagta h darwaza kholne main?" He says getting annoyed

"How long does it take to open the door?"

"Sorry papa wo mein upar Wale kamre main thi" I reply hesitantly

"Sorry dad I was in a room upstairs"

He glares at me without saying anything and enters inside as I close the door after he entered inside the house

As it was almost evening,I went and made a cup of tea for him,cause he always wants tea at this time and i cannot skip any of his needs. After giving him the cup of tea I went upstairs to study.

I entered inside my room and my phone buzzed,I picked it up to check and I saw a stranger sending me a message request on Instagram,I just recently downloaded Instagram and since then weird things started happening to me,i always feel like someone is watching me everytime, someone is following me,Something just doesn't feel right

I sigh and opens the message request it says,"come on butterfly don't crush my rose like that,it hurts my poor heart" my eyes widened seeing the text,i quickly blocked the user and throw my phone on the bed and cover my mouth in shock

"How did they come to know?who are they?what they want from me?can they see me from anywhere?but from where?is there any hidden camera in my room?how did they found out?what am I suppose to do now?" My mind was filled with these thoughts not knowing what to do,i sit on the bed keeping a hand on my forehead and let out a deep sigh.

"What should I do now? should I register a FIR?" I mumble to myself

After few minutes I shake my head taking a deep breath kicking those thoughts out of my mind.I sit on the study table and open my book focusing on my study instead of those stuff that happened to me today. Ignoring all these i focused on my studies for now.

नज़रें बोलें दुनिया बोले दिल की ज़बाँ हाय दिल की ज़बाँ
इश्क मांगे इश्क चाहे कोई तूफां हाय
चलना आहिस्ते इश्क नया है पहला ये वादा हमने किया है
ओ रे पिया हाय ओ रे पिया हाय ओ रे पिया
पिया रे पिया
नंगे पैरों पे अंगारों चलती रही हाय चलती रही
लगता है कि गैरों में मैं पलती रही हाय
ले चल वहाँ जो मुल्क तेरा है जाहिल ज़माना दुश्मन मेरा है
ओ रे पिया हाय ओ रे पिया हाय ओ रे पिया हाय ओ रे पिया हाय ओ रे पिया हाय
ओ रे पिया ओ रे पिया..🌷✨
