Self Preservation
Once upon a time there was a boy. He had a gang of 5, two boys (including him) and three girls. All 5 use to hangout together, enjoy together and study together.
The boy use to talk to everyone in the group and was the best buddy of everyone in the group except one girl out of those three. They both use to talk to each other very less and they never went alone together and use to be together only when they were in their group.
The girl tried several times to talk to him and get to know what actually the problem between them is. But boy never responded properly. Sometimes he says there is no problem I don’t know why you feel that and sometimes he just use to ignore her question.
With the passage of time girl started thinking that the boy doesn’t like her therefore she also stopped talking to him…
Remaining three friends in their group always thought that they simply don’t like each other’s company.
But one fine day their entire group went for a trip to goa including both of them. Every one enjoyed the trip and the boy filmed the entire trip.
After returning all of them asked the boy to show him the video but he said that it got corrupted.
After 1 month one fine day the girl came to his house to take some class notes as none of the other friends had it.
While the boy was searching for the notes on his table, she started scanning the room and suddenly saw a CD with the title goa trip.
She suddenly picked the CD and said hey you repaired it. She was so excited to see the CD that she immediately played it on a player.
She dragged a sofa near the TV, holds her face in her hands and started watching it.
The movie started with her close up and goa beach on the background..
She immediately commented him saying I never thought you’ll start your film with my close up, in fact I thought you won’t be filming me at all in you film.
Boy said nothing and was just standing at the corner of the house and watching her watching the film. And then she started watching the film again.
The next seen was her foots entering the hotel room where they stayed…
And in next seen; she was eating dinner at a restaurant…
Next seen; she was sleeping on the bed…
Next seen; she is doing something…
And the next seen; she was again doing something and film ended…
She didn’t know what to say….
She just looked into his wet red eyes with a lot of question like “you never told me anything, I thought you hate me. You never even use to talk to me properly”
And the boy said “It’s called self preservation”
