A year had passed since that cold, winter night. With it their feelings for each other had grown.
But they remained silent. The fear of rejection was too much for them to handle.
With that night, Naveen had grown convinced that she didn't love him and it pained him. She was terrified, unsure of his feelings towards her.
That was all about to change...............


Neha stood in front of the open cupboard. In there was an old coat. A coat that held secrets. A coat of a friend. Her fingers traced the buttons. It looked the same as it did 8 years ago.
"If only you could give me answers," she sighed at the coat. She shut the cupboard. It was late.
She turned in for the night.
But she couldn't sleep.
That night still haunted her. She had come to accept her feelings but Naveen............
It was too much to hope for that he reciprocated his feelings. Many a time had she tried to figure out how he felt about her without asking but to no avail.
She lay there mulling things over. A thought suddenly stuck her. The coat.
"How could I have been so stupid!" she shouted to herself.
In less than 2 mins she was outside running, as if her life depended on it.

Naveen sat in the living room, watching some film.
"Lucky b*stard," he said to himself as the hero walked off with the heroine into the sunset.
He switched the TV off and heard a ringing at the door.
It was Neha.
"Neha, what.........."
"Naveen, the coat!"
His heart skipped a beat.
"Naveen, when you gave me your coat, you gave me your heart as well didn't you?" she asked, hoping against hope,"Tell me you did!"
"No, I didn't," he said softly.
Neha felt the whole world falling around her. She'd made a mistake. She'd decieved herself. The tears started to come.
"Neha look at me."
Neha looked up at him.
"Neha, when I gave you my coat, I gave all of myself to you. My heart, body, mind and soul."
She stared at him. Then crying she hugged him and he hugged her back.
"Why didn't you tell me?" she cried," Why?"
"Because I thought you didn't love me."
" I love you ."
He remained silent.
"Won't you say it back to me?"
"I don't need words to tell you how much I love you."
"Then how will you tell me?"
"I'll show you."
And saying that he led her upstairs.
