Varun was able to see that Maya was feeling embarrassed. Varun saw her head hung so he moved his hand near to her chin. He touched her chin and lifted her head up. The lift door closed and started to move up. He met her eyes and also saw that her eyes were looking at him with worrisome.

Varun disliked seeing her keeping her head hung below as from the first day to even a few minutes before her heads where always lifted high. He said,” Don’t ever feel bad for something which you didn’t intend to do. Always held your head high as that is the Maya I like to see.”

Maya felt as if she was over the moon hearing his words. She thought to herself,” Is he the man I am looking for? Is he the one for me? Does he also like me? Or did he say these to make me feel at ease? Why didn’t I bother his touch when he touched my chin? Did my heart long for his touch? No Maya, It was just a gesture he did. But how come I forgot where I was for a minute when he touched me. His touch made to feel as if I had travelled above the universe. God! Where can I find the answers for all these questions? Why do I feel like I am having a conflict between my mind and heart? Who is there to help me figure out who he is to me? Should I ask him directly? Maya, what happened to you? Why are you thinking so much today? Yes I am overthinking today. I must not think of him again.”
