Chapter 7- Proposal?
Anushka froze on spot, not able to believe her eyes. Her Star had now done a PHD in giving her shocks.
"Heyy! May I umm...come in...?" He asked, as if he was regular visitor.
She unblocked the entrance, still not blinking. "Shweta wanted notes... You see... She's not quite well..." He began, exploring the veranda.
She smiled and bit her lips. She so wished shake her leg at the moment!
"Welcome..." She said in a feeble voice as she welcomed him in.
"Amma... Look who's here!" She called. Ramya came out, rubbing her hands with a towel, without bothering to look at the guest.
As soon as she saw him, she too gasped like a little kid. "Namaste" Prabhas bowed, folding his hands.
To calm her mother, Anushka said the purpose of his visit. Ramya smiled at him and offered to get him something to drink.
Anushka asked him to wait and ran upstairs to get her notes.
Prabhas sighed. It would be quite a task in making her parents believe that he had fallen in love with her. But first, it was a greater task to make HER believe in it!
Shiva took out an old book from the rack. He dusted it and came to the hall to read it.
At a moment, he was taken aback to find the 'Star' casually scan the house. He removed his glasses and went closer.
As soon as Prabhas saw the man, he knew he had to be her father. "Namaste Uncle..." He greeted, getting up.
Shiva took a moment and then smiled back. He sat next to Prabhas and decided to start the conversation.
Prabhas gulped. Her father was quite creepy! But soon, his eyes fell on the book in Shiva's hand.
"The Bhagavad Gita... A critical analysis..." He read the title.
"I've been searching this book for days!" He gasped, holding it in his hand.
Shiva was surprised as he didn't expect such interests in a celebrity. "It's my father's old collection..." He said.
Prabhas scanned through the pages and then turned towards him. "You know uncle, as far as I know, this is one of the best critical appreciation of the Gita. I've gone through the new versions, but all look the same...with a little change of words."
Shiva looked at him with admiration. "So... You are interested in these stuff?" He asked.
"Ohh! This has been my base for leading life. I am always a seeker for these mythological values. From my childhood, I have collected a humungous number of these books, Sanskrit dictionaries and every possible aid..." Prabhas had a spark in his eyes.
Shiva put his glasses back on and smiled. "I have a huge collection of them too... You can borrow them if you want to..." He offered.
"That'll be great! Thanks Uncle!" Prabhas shook his hand.
By the time, Anushka was back with a huge pile of books. The pile was so huge that she couldn't see forward. She did not notice the last step and tripped.
And guess what happened!
Our hero ran and caught hold of her and the books as well!
"Careful" he said, taking the books in his arms.
Anushka so wanted that moment to last for a few more seconds!
Prabhas bid goodbye to the family and was about to walk out when he bumped into someone. It was Priya, who had just returned from her tuition.
"Oops! Sorry!" He said and looked at her.
Priya had her mouth shaped 0. Prabhas tilted his head sidewards and smiled. He looked at Anushka and she lowered her lashes.
She lightly hit Priya on her shoulder to bring her back to reality. "Prabhas..." She introduced.
Priya rolled her eyes. As if an intro was needed! She smiled at Prabhas and leaned on Anushka to whisper something.
"You mean my further Bro in law!?" She winked.
Prabhas understood what she said and gave a thumbs up before leaving. Anushka stood in shock, on seeing what he did.

It was one more busy day when Anushka began scrolling her Instagram. Prabhas, Prabhas and Prabhas...his pics continuously slid.
There was a video of his recent interview and she clicked on it.
"Are you in a relationship now...?" The anchor asked.
Prabhas smiled and scratched his head. "Well I can not exactly say I'm in a relationship but... I'm trying to be..." He laughed.
The anchor was hella shocked.
"That means you are planning to propose someone...!?" She chirped.
"Yeah..." He replied.
Anushka had tears in her eyes. So.. He had fallen in love with someone and was planning to propose also.
But then, she realised and spoke to herself..
"What did I expect!? He's a star and I am nothing but a mere fan of his... Why did I even build my dreams on him!?"
She was in the verge of crying when Priya came to the rescue!
"What happened!?" She casually asked, snatching Anushka's phone from her hand.
The minute she saw him, she clicked on the video in excitement. Overwhelmed would have been a understatement for her state!
"He's planning to PROPOSE you!!! That's sooooo....damnnn awessssoommmeee!!!!" She yelled.
Anushka lifted her weepy face and dried her tears. "Propose me?" She asked, still supressing her sobs.
"Of course!! Who else!!!" Priya jumped on the bed laughing.
"No...never... I won't believe you. I'll be heartbroken if I do..." Anushka fell into her pillow again.
Priya slapped her forehead.

"Must have found his lady love..." She felt anger grow in heart for the first time...that too...for HIM!!
Priya rolled her eyes. She was somewhat confident that he did it on purpose.
A moment later, Anushka's phone beeped.

Priya's eyes widened on seeing Prabhas's excited text.
"See... I told you!!! He will propose you today!!!! You'll get ready in ten minutes and I'll keep my make up kit ready... Let's what have I got..." Priya was busy throwing her make up stuffs here and there while Anushka sat on the bed. She sighed.
