I walked down the stairs next morning in a pencil jeans and kurta which were paired with a pair of beautiful silver colored earrings.

I felt beautiful in it, may be the time that I had spent with Arjun made me more confident to deck up for him... to look beautiful only for him.

Or else what would be the reason?

Never had I been in a dilemma what shall I wear, or what earing should I wear or shall I put makeup or which lipstick.

But today I did, I looked myself through his eyes, thought what to wear and how to look from his eyes... and this only made me feel so complete.

May be because I knew that today I was different, as I wasn't just Arohi – I was Arjun's Arohi.

"Hii beta, you look really beautiful today" Ragahav's mom complemented me as soon as I walked in the kitchen to help the ladies in making breakfast.

"Thank you aunty," I smiled shyly and walked to Nitya's side, who was making ladoo or shall I say trying to make ladoo.(an Indian sweet which is round in shape)

"ohh hoo, complete pataka!!"

"You know right that there could be a few decent words in your complement." I said as I sat opposite to her, took a bit of bundi and started to accumulate them together and shape them in a circle.

The whole house and kitchen was in a rush, everyone could for sure tell that it was a wedding going on from far away.

The small giggles of girls and women, the business talks, the voice of dholki, the old women talking about their times and obviously the gidda songs were filled around.

It would make any sane person giddy, and looking at this all... I wondered when it would be my time, when it would be the time when my home would be filled with this amount of excitement.

The thought that may be it might happen soon, made me happy from inside.

"yep but you got that right, and as it is this isn't going to work today, he has already left for office... and if it makes you feel good here he gave this to me and yeah I didn't read it." I was brought out of my thoughts by snarky comments of my dear friend.

Ignoring her I quickly snatched the small pink colored paper which had his not so beautiful handwriting.

Can I have this breakfast with you?

If yes, meet me at the ccd near my office by 9

Love

A.

I smiled at his simple yet straight words. With a bit of shifting and looking here and there, I was about to say something when Nitya herself spoke

"Go ahead I will handle it here." I smiled brightly at her and walked out of the door for my date.

The word itself gave me tingles all around me. My legs couldn't hide my excitement as I sprinted off towards my car ignoring the curious eyes of my parents and the guest.

The distance of fifteen minutes to south from Abha's place to Arjun's office was the worst of all.

I didn't know what shall I really feel, I was excited, nervous and as well curious as to what had he really stored in for me.

When I reached there, I quickly got out of the car and with a lady like steps finally entered the cozy café.

It was soo warm, the smell of caffeine at its best, as the small faint music flowed around. The decorations were up for the Christmas as well as the new year's eve, and it only gave you excitement for them to arrive soon.

There wasn't any rush at this hour... it was just 9 am and an hour more was to go for the office's around here to start, along with the rush.

"Arohi!" I heard his voice from the booth at the end of the café.

He looked so fresh and handsome, no one would believe that this guy had slept just for wee hours, and was here after a boring meeting.

With a deep breath and trying to control my nerves I walked towards him.

With every step that I took towards him, I walked closer to the guy who once pulled my small plated hair and now who worships the ground that I walk on – to the person whom I loved the most.

It felt as if all my dreams would be true, there won't be any need of that bucket list now... everything that I would want to do will be experienced ... we would experience it – together, forever.

"Hi" the various ways that I had thought I would be greeting Arjun had for sure not included this, nervous, shy and small 'hii' with a hesitant smile.

But then if I was on the wrong page, he had the capacity to pull me up towards him, to make sure I was with him. As he just pulled me in his warm Arms – the one which were – my home!

"We don't need this formality, we never did." He whispered in my ears.

It had become so difficult for me all of a sudden to even breathe his name, the close proximity and the knowledge that we were together had got me so vanquished.

Many times had I thought about our various dates but never had I thought it to be like this.

"And I had thought, this being our first date we would go somewhere fancy." I teased him, while he pulled up a chair for me, as I took my place.

He just gave me are you kidding me smile and took seat opposite to mine and once comfortable he took a long and satisfactory look of me.

"What are you staring at?" I asked, getting a bit uncomfortable with his scrutinizing gaze.

It felt as if he was looking at something so precious and if he would remove his eyes from it, they would get lost in the mist.

"It felt as if it's been century that I saw you last, you look so beautiful Arohi... much more beautiful than I had ever thought you would on our first date."

What all breath that was left in me had escaped, his words were so effecting that all loving emotions, like plants, rose most rapidly with in me. I was as happy as a bride at that moment .

He imagined us being on a date together... the thought gave me hope ... a hope of so many things that might be actually same.

It was enough that I knew that he had liked me earlier as well, but now that I know that he as well thought of us being together made me content- as content as an infant that would see candy in his dream.

"Arohi the first time I realized that I love you was when I was 17, since than I had thought of so many ways to propose you, to take you on a date, to keep you beside me... and when I was far away from you all I understood was, I just cant stay away from you, I am already ... what 11 years late and I can't take much of time now, we are getting old, your dad is looking for a perfect match for you and all I know is that I am the best this whole world could give you and I am not letting you go..."

He held on to my had tightly and leaned in even more close and whispered

"If you want to think that I am a kinky man so be it, but if you dare and go away from me, I would tie you to the bed and stay there and watch you like a hawk."

"That's really – ewwww" I made a face and we both had a hearty laugh.

It was sure that I was at ease now, may be even if he let me go I would never go away from him, we were meant to be together and I would make sure that this stupid hunk would stay with me.

"Let's order something I am hungry." He stated while rubbing his stomach .

I could only nod my head.

He was changing again, he wasn't the same guy whom I had met the night when he had pulled up that prank on me when he was back.

The small original smile on his face made him look better, he was carefree as a child, and most of all he was opening up from his secluded being and beginning to acknowledge us.

I kept on looking at him as he gave the waiter our orders, his appetite for sure was like a teenager, always eager for food, but I was happy that he was like this only for my eyes.

He kept on telling me about various plans that he had for Abha's and vihaan's wedding, how he wanted to spend as much time possible with all of us to make up for the lost timing.

I wanted to ask him if he would be here, or would go back to Canada... because if he did, I won't be able to come with him... and what if –

No that though was not to be brought up, right now I was here to be with him and I will be with him.

We still held our hands together, and I couldn't even know when he sat beside me all the while talking about so many things...

That's what we did – he talked, I listened.

His voice, his eagerness, his thoughts... and his heartbeat!

We were happy , in love, and that moment was our heaven, where I would just see him, feel him and keep him away from everything, just with me in my arms and would be contended with our life.

When our food came, he quickly stood up smiled at me and went back to his place and digged in it, without looking at me, maybe he was really hungry, but that sight was a must see.

I had always been thankful to god for letting these people to come in my life, and now – I was more thankful for him to send Arjun in my life.

He was the happiness which I had always carved for, he was the one who made me not only look beautiful but as well feel beautiful, he was the one who made me go crazy for things, and he was the one for whom I was ready to give away all my tears to my pillow.

"Arjun"

"Hmm" he said with his mouth filled with a veg puff that he had stuffed just a minute ago.

"Why did you bring me here?" I asked the same question that was ignored a minute ago.

May be I was a damn curios person, but I liked this place, it was something that I wanted to do with Arjun in my college days, but alas he wasn't there to go on a date here.

He took his sweet time to finish the food in his mouth while I waited patiently for him – for the answer.

Once he was finally done I kept my hands of the table and leaned in, may be this was going to be interesting.

"I first came to know that I like you when I had dropped you off at your place, you know the night when An- Anika had said that she wanted to fall in love. "

I nodded my head, but it still worried me that he flinched and was scared to utter her word, there was this guilty feeling whenever he talked about her and soon I want that to go... and I just know what it could be, but then time was the only thing that could help me for now.

"After that day I started to observe people, I mean couple... the things they would do where they would hang out and how special it felt for them, whenever I would come to c c d I wondered how it would really feel to have here in front of me, with this small rose in between us and I would hog on the food, while you would just stare at me lovingly –"

"Arohi every time that you look at me with this tender eyes, you make me feel loved , it feels as if you know me more than you love me and that would do just anything to be here with me and watch me eat."

I smiled at him and stood up from my chair walked to him and sat on him lap and hugged him tightly.

It was just a day that we had been together, and it feels soo long, so long that we loved each other, that we know each other...

Every time, a moment together is enjoyed by us I just wonder what would be the next moment , how many minutes will it be, and when I just think of this stupid fantasy of being together for life long, the forever only makes me excited.

Every time that I am with him, is mine... it is named to be ours and the thought of the next hundreds of minutes and hours at our name with him beside me makes me the happiest person alive.

"I love you Arjun, just let me know these lovely fantasies of yours." I said and winked at him, and was about to get up when he held me tight and whispered in my ears.

"One of my fantasies is to kiss you all day long." And with that he kissed me... our kiss at our first official date!
