Sharun and Cathy stayed in a hotel. They spent the whole day wandering around the city. Sharun took few photos of beautiful places. At night, the went to a restaurant for dinner. After having the dinner, while they were walking back to the hotel, Sharun was thinking about something.

'I don't know why I'm doing this. Who's she? Did she actually save me or was I too coward to take the jump?'   thought Sharun.

Sharun was thinking about stopping  all this and going back to his life. The life he hated the most.

'You know, we humans adapt everything. As a child, we adapted to wake up early, go to school and spend six hours there. Then, when we went to college, everything changed. There, we can't even sit a whole hour in the class. That's life. We humans adapt the environment in which we are and then, tries to find happiness in the balloon filled with sadness.'      said Cathy.

Cathy's words didn't make any sense. But, listening to her, always made Sharun learned new things.

' I was sick of my life and I decided to end it. And now, when I'm happy, I'm going after the sadness again. We humans don't find happiness, we go in search of  sadness inside the ballonn of happiness.'     thought Sharun.

Sharun exhales heavily.

'You wanted to do something you fear the most. What is it ?'   asked Sharun

'My fear... I want to see this city at night.'     said Cathy

Cathy cont'd  'I want walk at twelve, at one, at two.....without fear.'

'Are we really doing your to-do list or are we doing some social awareness program?'     Sharun chuckled

'It's easy for you boys....'     said Cathy.

'Stop this nonsense. Nothing iseasy for boys.'      interrupted Sharun.

'Okay.' replied Cathy, raising her hand up.

'As your wish, we'll spend the whole night outside. Let's go  and meet every corner of this city.'  said Sharun.

Cathy was excited. Sharun and Cathy went to the hotel and Sharun took his camera with him.

At one in the morning, they reached near the bridge. They both sat down near the bridge.

' It's really fun.'    said Cathy.

' Yeah. It's really fun to walk for three hours.'   Sharun teased.

'You hate walking  ?'   asked Cathy.

'No. I was just joking.'     laughed Sharun.

'It's the best day of my life. Roaming with a stranger at midnight and I have no fear.'    said Cathy

'Look at this view.'    said Sharun, pointing across the bridge.

Cathy stood up and she saw tall building lighting up the pitch dark world like fireflies. Cathy  sat down again.

'Do you ever wish of spending some time like this with her?'    asked Cathy

'Hmm... I always want to spend some time with people I love the most. Because, that's the only way how they can understand me.'       said Sharun

Sharun cont'd       'Because, if you haven't met me in person, you might think that either I'm too fake or too rude.'

Cathy laughed.

'What's her name?'   asked Cathy.

'Harshita.'    replied Sharun.

'You still love her?' asked Cathy

'I don't know. But, I can't stop thinking about it.'     replied Sharun

'Does she have a boyfriend ?   asked Cathy

'Don't know. Never saw any Pic of her with a boy.'      replied Sharun

Everytime they talked about Harshita, Sharun's eyes filled with tears.

'Love is a powerful weapon. It can make us do wonder and, it can also turn us evil.'    said Cathy.

'No. Love can't turn us evil.'    replied Sharun

Sharun cont'd    'Can you punch your father in the face? No. That's because you love him. If you can hurt someone in the name of love then, it's not love. It's something else.'

'May be you are right or may be we both are. We haven't seen the world yet.'     replied Cathy.

Cathy and Sharun stood up. Cathy smiled and hugged Sharun.

'Thank you for gifting me this night.'      said Cathy.

Cathy cont'd     'Let's go back to hotel.'

'Okay.'  replied Sharun.

Sharun and Cathy walked back to the hotel.
