#Yash's POV

Today was Sunday I have to go to Andrew's home.He had invited me for his grandfather's birthday party. But my head was aching terribly because I struggled with a sleepless suffocated night with those old scary thoughts.

The same thoughts, where I saw myself standing in a cliff surrounded with ocean and I saw Zara stabbing herself to death in front of me I was screaming and I was helpless. I was trying to run to her but I can't feel my legs then. I had been getting these thoughts ever since from the day of that drama where I felt my love for Zara the first time.

Now I'm afraid and upset because I was worried seeing Zara in such a horrible dream. I never ever wanted to see her worried. Now all I want is to call home to assure whether Zara was safe in India.

I called my home and my mom talked about everything except the thing which I wanted to hear.

Finally while I concluded that I'm not going to hear anything about Zara, my mom said that Zara had come to my home then to take my mom for a shopping.

I was online on the phone and I got goose bumps when I heard my mom complementing her pretty look and I heard her voice when she asked my mom whether she was ready for shopping.

I didn't expect that I would hear her voice after such a long time in an unexpected way.

I waited expecting a chance to talk with Zara, but my mom hanged the phone saying that she was about to leave for shopping.

Her voice kept on roaming in my mind which kept me smiling like insane. Now I was happy since I got an assurance that she was safe.

I got up to get myself ready, after few minutes Andrew came to pick me up to his home. 

On the way I saw the streets which blurred in my eyes and I saw some places burning with fire. I felt I was in hallucination and I told Andrew that I'm getting mad since those places were seemed to be burning in my eyes.

Andrew laughed and said that I had studied the history of London beyond the limit that's why I'm seeing the past in the present.

At first I can't understand what he was saying. But he said that those streets were burnt in the Great fire of London some centuries before.

Andrew stopped his car in front of his home,and my heart started to beat violently even before getting down from the car. It was a beautiful home but the air around me seemed to be pricking me harshly.

At the very instant of getting down from the car, my eyes showed me a old house instead of the exact house.

 I felt that I had been to that place before and my inner feeling told me that it was the place where I had lived before but I ignored it thinking that those thoughts were rushing in me because of lack of sleep. 

And a voice inside my mind kept on calling out a word which I couldn't frame out and that word kept on stabbing my mind and I started to feel pain in my head. But I tried my best to ignore that feeling which has been multiplying in me.

Andrew introduced me to his family and I went to meet Andrew's grand father Mr.John Sutton who had turned 95. When i went to him, he was in a room with lots and lots of books in more than three cupboards. 

Mr. John sutton has been glancing over an old photo album when we entered his room.

Andrew introduced me and I came to know that the old man was a historian.

 I started to chat with him. While Andrew who was sitting beside me asked his grandfather to teach me some history of their home.

He also told Mr. Sutton that I had been asking him questions all the way about the streets and London's past saying he winked at me with a naughty smile .

Mr.John Sutton smiled at me and he started to say the history of that home.

Mr. John Sutton: Young man, we have been living in this house for the past 10 generations. My ancestors were from Canterbury and they were Grocers and my grandfather told me that our ancestor Mr.Joseph Sutton had made us to relocate to London to rebuild this home which has been destroyed in the great fire of Britain. And this home belong to the beloved sister of my ancestor , who lost her one and only son, a famous musician in the great fire at 1666.

Yash( stuttered) : Famous Musician? Died in fire?

Mr.John Sutton: Yes, I had heard a very little about him. But his name was (after a pause) Adrian. His name was Adrian.

At the very instant of hearing the name 'ADRIAN', Yash felt dizziness in his head since his mind framed that word which had been stabbing his mind from the very instant of seeing the home and that word was nothing but 'ADRIAN'.

His vision  blurred and the image of Mr.John Sutton faded away. Yash clutched his head between his hands and he heard the faded voice of Andrew calling out Yash's name.

After few hours

Yash who was lying on the bed in Andrew's room started to hear the scream of people and in the midst he heard a conversation near him but his tired eyes refused to open and by the time Yash's mind realized that the conversation was between a couple, who were trying to escape from that place which was about to burn in fire.

He opened his eyes instantly when he realized the voice of Zara in the conversation calling out the name "Adrian".

When he opened his eyes he saw the room as it was engulfed with fire and he saw a couple hugging each other and their conversation kept echoed in the room.

He rushed near the couple and he saw the girl as Zara who has been telling , "Why should I fear? I was in the safe hands of my Adrian."

His mind suffocated him with the fact that Zara was with an unknown Adrian at that moment.

When he turned to see Adrian he was startled when he saw himself standing as Adrian with whom she was talking to.

He tried to touch them and at once they disappeared as ashes in to the wind.

At once Andrew entered the room looking at him with scared face.

Yash sensed the situation which seemed to be completely getting out of his control. He tried to behave normal and he explained he fainted because of his sleepless night. But his inner senses told that he knew the truth who was he and how was he related to that place.

Yash left the home and his senses kept on recollecting the happenings and the memories which had been taking its own way to show off.

That day made him to conclude that those memories in him were trying to convey the message that his love with Zara has a past and they had born again to live and to love each other.

He started to design his world with Zara and he waited for his day to meet her.

Years went by

Zara, the final year student shined in the college as a topper since she had decided to go to London to meet her Yash.

Zara and Yash felt that they were together by heart. Their  prayers, feelings and thoughts for each other were the same.

Yash became familiar with London as well as its history which seemed too familiar to him. sometimes the old image of London used to flash in his mind which he had started to admire since those memories were only his.

In all these years he became a good friend of Mr.John Sutton through whom he confirmed that it was those memories which arises in him on seeing the streets and their home was real and not a hallucination.

He also kept on feeling that he was not alone and Zara was there with him in each and every place.

He developed a habit of going to Thames whenever he felt missing Zara. The breeze of Thames which used to caress his face kept on making him to feel that Zara was around him.

He walked around the places where he roamed with Joan as Adrian.

His Love on her kept on increasing each day and he became responsible to live with her at any cost.

Zara finished her college as a gold medalist and she was offered an opportunity to do her MBA in London with Scholarships.

She awaited for her best day to meet Yash.
