CAN BROKEN HEART BE MENDED

CHAPTER SEVEN

NAINA

I reached home quite late. I unlocked the front door to find my parents watching "SILSILA" movie on television. My mother asked me if I had dinner. I nodded & showed them all the shopping I'd done. I was too tired so I retired to my room. I freshened up & laid down on my comfy bed.

I was thinking about the past few hours. I don't know how the time went by in the mall. It was Sameer's presence that made the time tick fast. These past three days have been like a roller coaster ride. From being Sameer's fake girlfriend to now being his real girlfriend. I still can't believe he asked me in real. I hadn't given in much thought before agreeing to be his real girlfriend. But it felt nice now.

Yesterday when Sameer didn't feel jealous seeing Sunaina with Kartik had made me question his love towards Sunaina. But the answer was simple, he didn't love her. It was just his infatuation or attraction towards her or just habituation of having her around... His small bold gestures with me confirmed the same. Sunaina's presence hadn't bothered him yesterday & even today. I wanted to give us a chance. I wanted to see how my love towards him would change his feelings towards me. Maybe he would realize what exactly love is?

I was going to take a huge risk by putting my heart in line of fire. But I had to do it. The battle between my mind & heart was terrible. I don't know why my heart wasn't listening to my mind. My mind was telling me to stay away from him or I would hurt myself badly at the end of it. Whereas my heart wanted to give us a chance, see where this would end. I wanted to feel him close, even if it would be for a short while. The memories would last for my lifetime.

I love him since day one. My heart won over my mind as always. I believe that whenever you take any important decisions in life, you should always listen to your heart as it is always right. You won't ever regret those decisions. Your heart knows where your happiness lies & trust your intuitions.

I closed my eyes & Sameer's face appeared bringing a smile on my face. All the butterflies were back. The way he had looked at me when I came out trying the dresses. The way his eyes dilated after seeing me in that backless choli. His sensuous touches had awakened all the nerves in my body. He had lit a fire that was burning me to the core. I'd never felt like this before. I wanted him close but was too afraid to voice it out. But nonetheless I was happy with our growing closeness.

He told me that he would pick me up for office tomorrow. That only meant, he was going to reveal our relationship in our office as well. I was beyond happy. I didn't know how all this happened in the last three days which changed my status quo suddenly. But who is complaining? I want to live it & enjoy it to the fullest.

I'd just switched off the bedside lamps, when my mobile vibrated. I blushed slowly after reading his message, "Goodnight Jaan... Sweet dreams of me. But don't be naughty." The message ended with a wink & kiss emoji. My heartbeat had escalated with just his message. How was I supposed to stay away from him? I replied in a daring way, "Goodnight Sameer. Sweet dreams of me too. But you can be naughty." I too ended the message with a wink & kiss emoji.

His reply took a while, "Tum nahi kehti fir bhi main waise naughty dreams hi dekhta. Par ab tumhari bhi permission hai, toh I will oblige to your wishes. Subah jaldi ready rehna. Main 8.30 tak aa jaaunga. Thik hai. Goodnight Jaan... Can't wait to see you tomorrow." I replied, "Okk... Main ready rahungi. Cyuu tomorrow." I kept the alarm for 6 in the morning & closed my eyes waiting for sleep to take over me.

I got up just before the alarm would ring. I disabled the alarm & saw a good morning message from Sameer. The day had started with his message. It couldn't have started better than this. I sent a good morning message to him too & got up to start my weekday. I finished my chores in an hour & headed towards the kitchen to find my mother making breakfast. I hugged her from behind & wished her a very good morning. She was surprised to find me awake so early.

"Arey waahhh beta... Aaj itna jaldi kaise uth gayi tu? Tujhe toh har Monday mujhe uthane aana padta hai. Aaj kya special hai huh???" "Kya aap bhi mummy... Main bas aise hi jaldi uth gayi thi. Ab mujhe breakfast dedo, bohot bhook lagi hai." I said rubbing my stomach & distracting her a bit. She laughed & served me breakfast of poha & ginger tea. My papa too joined us after a while. Later, I helped her in packing our tiffins & cleaning the kitchen. It was already eight & I rushed to get ready for the office... I didn't want to get late & make Sameer wait.

I got ready in the next fifteen minutes. I had worn white sleeveless kurti which had colorful embroidery at the neckline & paired it with an ankle length light blue jeans. As usual, I didn't put much make up, just the kajal & light pink lipstick. I tied my hair in a ponytail. I carried a scarf as I was going to travel on his bike. The butterflies were back in an instant. I took deep breaths to calm down my nerves. This was his effect on me even without his presence.

I was ready to leave by 8.25 itself. I collected my bag & mobile & left bidding goodbyes to my parents. I was waiting at the entrance checking my mobile, when I heard two honks nearby. My face broke into a big smile as I noticed Sameer driving towards me on his bike. My heart almost skipped some beats as he stopped in front of me. He got down from his bike, removing his helmet. He had worn a dark blue casual shirt with top two buttons open with cream colored trousers. He looked beyond handsome & he was mine. Where had that thought come from?

"Good morning jaan..." He had pulled me in his warm hug & I melted. He whispered, "Bohot acchi lag rahi ho. Par ek kami hai" I raised my eyebrows at him & he just removed the clip from my hair. I stood there stunned. "Haannn... Abhi thik hai. Mujhe tumhare khule baal hi pasand hai. Isse baandha mat karo tum. Samjhi???" I nodded & blushed at his open staring. "Ummmm... Ab chalein madam. Warna office jaane mein der ho jaayegi." "Haannn... Chalo chalte hai. Traffic bhi bohot hoga."

He wore the helmet again. I covered my head with scarf. He was looking at all my moves & I got nervous, "Tum aise kya dekh rahe ho? Main office ke baahar utarte hi yeh scarf utaar dungi. Abhi nahi pehna toh baal kharab ho jaayenge na?" I pouted a little. His eyes had unconsciously stopped at my lips & as if they had its own mind, my lips quivered under his darkening gaze.

A loud honk on the other side of the road broke our trance. I silently wore the helmet & sat behind him. I put my right hand on his shoulder for support & didn't remove it even when I sat there comfortably. He adjusted the rear-view mirror so that he could see me & asked, "Chalein???" I nodded shyly & he started the bike.

He wasn't driving too fast as he was conscious that I was sitting behind him. He maneuvered his way through the traffic & we reached the office in the next hour. I got down at the entrance of our office building & he drove a little ahead to park his bike. The security guard was looking at us curiously. Sameer came back & we walked together towards the office. His hand had found mine automatically. I blushed a little & he whispered, "Aise sharmao mat, abhi toh maine kuch kiya hi nahi hai, jo tum sharmane lagi." My eyes went wide at his teasing & we entered the elevator.

As we entered our office hand in hands, I saw many curious glances thrown our way. But it didn't affect us & he dropped me at my department where Preeti was already seated. They both greeted each other happily. The familiar voices of Munna & Pandit were heard just behind us, "Good morning Sameer... Good morning Naina..." Munna hit Pandit on his head, "Naina nahi... Good morning Bhabhi bol... Samjha..." Pandit grinned mischievously, "Arey haannn. Good morning Naina Bhabhi... ab thik hai na Chenu?" Munna smiled & wished us good morning with a lot of teasing.

"Bas karo ab tum dono. Kitna chedoge meri friend ko. Sameer... Nahii... Nahii... Jijaji... Apne friends ko samjha do warna main inko nahi chodungi." Preeti teased Sameer & he blushed at his new nick name. "Tumhe chodna bhi kaun chaahta hai", Pandit spoke softly which was audible to Preeti only & she blushed. Everyone had caught their moment. I looked at Sameer who was looking at the other couple adoringly. As if he had sensed my eyes on him, he turned & winked at me, tightening our handhold.

"Achha chalo... Kaam pe lagte hai. Coffee break mein milenge ab", Munna said. Sameer agreed & reluctantly left my hand. He kissed me on my forehead asking me to meet soon. I blinked my eyes in assurance & all the three left towards their concerned departments. When I took my place at my cubicle, Preeti whispered, "Kaisa lag raha hai madam. Forehead kiss huh... that was too fast. Tujhe pataa hai na yahan office mein kitni ladkiyon ka dil toota hoga aaj, Sameer ko tere saath dekhkar. Kitna jal rahi hongi sab ki sab. Mujhe toh bohot accha lag raha hai... Jijaji bhi sahi hai, sabke saamne hi aise kiss kar diya... waahhh maanna padega..."

I unknowing blushed, "Chup kar Preeti... Aur chal kaam shuru karte hai warna manager hamari jaan le lega" I knew what she was saying was true. He had indeed broken many hearts today. I had seen most of the girls drooling over him... I was going to be the hot topic for their gossips & also their jealousy for some time from now.. And I was ready to face it head-on, only for Sameer. He needed to know that there was someone apart from his bffs who would stand up with him, for him always...

I got busy with work. It was almost two hours on work, when my landline rang. I picked up to hear his husky voice, "Coffee peene chalein madam. Jaldi wapis aa jayenge I promise." I nodded, then realized that he can't see me. "Thik hai... Tum café mein ruko, main 5-minute mein aati hun." He agreed & we disconnected. Before I could say anything to Preeti, she said, "Jaldi aana. Iss baar main bulane nahi aaungi. Sidhe manager ko hi niche bhej dungi." She winked & I left to go to the café.

I reached café to find him sitting at the corner table. He was already looking at me. He stood up as I reached him, and pulled me in his hug. What was he doing? There were people around. But I relaxed instantly in his arms when he whispered in my ear, "I missed you Jaan." I had missed him too. He pulled a chair for me taking a seat in front of me. The coffees arrived as we settled ourselves.

"Naina... next weekend Diwali hai. Main chaahta hun ki tum mere ghar aao Diwali ke din. Main Preeti aur Swati ko bhi invite karunga agar tum haa kaho toh." He was nervous, I could see it on his face. I kept my hand on his, "Main aaungi Sameer. Preeti aur Swati bhi aayengi. Don't worry. Main bataa dungi unhe. Waise bhi mujhe Nanu se bhi toh milna hai. Kyun milaaoge na?" He sat there speechless.

'Naina... Mujhe lagaa nahi tha ki tum mere ek baar kehne par hi aane ke liye maan jaaogi. And I'm very much happy that you agreed. Nanu tumse milkar bohot khush honge. Hum sab milkar mast enjoy karenge. Waise tumhare parents tumhe permission denge na?" I nodded, "Haannn... Sameer... Mere parents bohot acche hai. Unhone mujhe har cheez ki freedom di hai. I'm sure woh maan jaayenge. Don't worry." He smiled but his smile hadn't reached his eyes & I had to find out why, "Kya hua Sameer? Tum thik ho na?" "Hmmmm... Iss baare mein baad mein kabhi baat karenge. Abhi chalein... Fir lunch time mein milenge canteen mein." We finished our coffees & were back in office.

I was on calls continuously with our clients. I was damn tired & hungry too. There was still 10 minutes left for lunchtime. So, I & Preeti went to freshen up. When we entered the canteen, we saw Sameer, Munna & Pandit sitting at the nearby table. Sameer was looking at me intently. I took the seat next to him & settled myself with my tiffin. I saw that Munna & Pandit had brought tiffins but there was no tiffin in front of Sameer. "Tum tiffin nahi laaye?" I raised my eyebrows. "Ummmm... woh aaj main jaldi jaldi mein nikla toh tiffin laana bhul gaya.", he was rubbing his neck slowly. I smiled at him, "Koi baat nahi... Hum share kar lenge." I opened my tiffin & kept it between us. There were three chapatis & aloo mutter sabji for lunch. We ordered some pav bhaji for us too, as we all were very much hungry.

Some colleagues came by to meet Sameer & were curiously looking at me & Preeti. Some of his fangirls had also come which had irritated me to the core. Sensing my irritation, Sameer leaned forward & offered a morsel of pav bhaji. And I took it happily ignoring the evil glances of others. "Tum meri girlfriend ho madam... Inn stupid ladkiyon pe dhyaan mat do tum. Tumhara dhyaan sirf mujhpar hona chahiye. Samjhi???" I wanted to hug him but I couldn't do that here. "Okkk... Samaj gayi baba..."

We had finished our lunch & there was still some time for the lunch time to end. So, Sameer pulled me with him towards the conference room which was vacant at that time. I looked around but most of the people had moved back to their cubicles & no one was around. He locked the door to the conference room & my nerves picked up again & the butterflies were back.

"Sameer... Koi achanak aa gaya toh kya sochega ki hum yahaan akele kya kar rahe the." I pointed the obvious but he wasn't listening. He cornered me towards the wall & kept his hands on either side of me. He had literally trapped me. I lowered my gaze as I couldn't match the intensity of his gaze. He put his finger on my chin, making me look at him.

"Naina... Subah se hume thik se akele mein baat hi nahi karne mili hai. Toh main sirf tumse baat karna chaahta hun, tumhe apne paas mehsoos karna chaahta hun aur kuch nahi. Bas thodi der ruk jao fir toh hume hamare kaam par lautna hi hai na..." I wanted that too. So, I just hugged him, feeling at home finally. His hand was on my waist making slow circles which was turning my insides into jelly.

"Naina... Tum bohot acchi ho... Pataa hai na tumhe... Tumhara dil ekdum tumhare jaisa hai... Masoom aur bohot sundar... Main lucky hun ki tum meri zindagi mein aayi..." his simple words had brought tears. No one apart from my family & Preeti & Swati had been close to me. But Sameer had entered my life & broken all the barriers that I had put to protect my heart. I smiled through tears, "Lucky toh main bhi hun ki tum meri zindagi mein aise aaye. Main bohot simple si ladki hun. Toh kabhi nahi lagaa ki life mein mujhe tum jaisa hot & handsome boyfriend banega. Maine kabhi nahi socha tha ki aisa bhi din aayega jab mein aise kisi band conference room mein kisi ke gale lagkar khadi rahungi." I winked at him & he lowered himself to kiss me on my cheeks & pecked my nose.

I blushed & hid my head on his chest. "Naina... Hamesha aise hi rehna..." "Tum bhi Sameer... kabhi kisi ke liye mat badalna. Jaise ho waise hi bohot acche ho." I tapped on his nose & he held my hand & kissed my wrist. "Naina... Tumhe chodne ka mann nahi kar raha par jaana chahiye ab. Varna sach mein koi aa jaayega yahaan." I nodded & just as he was about to open the door, he leaned, "I will miss u Jaan." And he pulled me out of the conference room. We walked together again hand in hand & we dispersed to our departments in a hurry.

We couldn't meet for the coffee break as he was busy with back to back meetings. The second half of the day finished fast as we all were too busy with clients or meetings. I was just winding up for the day, when my mobile beeped with a message. It read, "Wait for me near my bike, I would be there in ten minutes." I replied with a 'ok' message.

I & Preeti moved towards the parking lot where Munna & Pandit were already waiting near their bikes. We chatted for a while & then Sameer joined us. Pandit asked Preeti if he could drop her home & she agreed without a fuss. Ahannnn... so something was definitely cooking between them too. I raised my eyebrows at Preeti who just blushed & looked away immediately. "Pandit... Preeti ko sambhal kar le jaana. No rash driving... Samjhe...", Sameer warned him. And I & Preeti smiled at his protectiveness. "Don't worry Jijaji... Agar usse sahi salaamat ghar jaana hoga toh woh mujhe acche se hi le jaayega." "Haannn... Haannn... Thik hai. Ab baitho bhi Preeti" We all laughed at their antics.

Pandit & Preeti left on his bike. Munna was nervous about something. "Kya hua Munna? Tum aise kyun khade ho? Ghar nahi jaana kya?" "Woh Bhabhi... darasal baat yeh hai ki mujhe na... woh... woh... mujhe....." I had guessed the reason for his stuttering, "Tumhe Swati ka number chahiye hai na Munna?", I completed his sentence. He nodded shyly & I exchanged a look with Sameer. He blinked his eyes in assurance. "Main tumhe Swati ka number bhejti hun abhi..." he smiled & left on his bike too.

"Waahhh... Kya friends hai na mere... Ek meri saali sahiba ko le gaya, toh dusra dusri saaliji ke peeche pada hai." he laughed a little & I joined him too. I forwarded Swati's number to Munna. And I again tied my scarf around my hair. Sameer was keenly noticing everything. He placed the helmet on my head securing it properly. I sat behind him, holding both his shoulders this time. It was only four days that we'd been together, but I felt as if I've known him forever. I was getting used to being close to him now.

It took more than an hour this time to reach my complex because of the traffic. He parked his bike near the entrance & we moved towards the garden. We sat on the same bench that we had taken before. It was turning quite dark. I kept my head on his shoulder & we sat there for a few minutes quietly. I broke the silence, "Sameer... Tum mujhe bataa sakte ho ki tum café mein itna shaant kyun ho gaye the."

He took a deep breath & started, "Tum yeh toh jaanti ho ki main Nanu he saath rehta hun. Par maine aaj tak kisi ko apne parents ke baare mein nahi bataaya. Sirf Munna aur Pandit jaante hain. Aur ab main tumhe bataana chaahta hun. Main jab teen saal ka tha, tab hi mere papa ek car accident mein chal base the. Mummy bilkul toot gayi thi. Par fir Nanu ne ek saal baad unki dusri shaadi karva di. Mere sautele papa mere mummy ko delhi le gaye. Aur mujhe yahin Nanu ke paas chod gaye. Main bohot roya tha tab mummy ke liye. Par Nanu ne mujhe sambhala. Main aaj jo bhi hun, jaisa bhi hun unki wajah se hun. Meri mummy unki nayi life mein itna busy ho gayi ki woh bhool gayi ki unka ek beta bhi hai yahaan, jo unhe bohot miss karta hai. Woh sirf saal mein mujhse ek baar hi baat karti hai... Sirf mere birthday par. Baaki jo bhi unhe jaanna ho woh Nanu se pooch leti hai."

The tears had made its way in our eyes. "Naina... Kya main itna bura hun ki woh mujhse baat tak nahi karti. Milne bhi nahi aayi aaj tak. 'Betaa' yeh shabd sunne ke liye taras gaya hun main. Unke liye toh ab Rohan aur Deepika hi unke bacche hai... Main toh kuch nahi hun. Kaash mere papa ke saath main bhi..." I didn't let him finish his sentence & had covered his mouth with my palm. "Mr Sameer Maheshwari... Don't you dare say that again... Samjhe... Mujhe nahi jaanna tumhari mummy ke baare mein ab kuch aur. Par tum yeh samaj lo ki Nanu, Munna, Pandit aur ab main bhi tumhari family hun. Nanu ne tumhe aaj tak itna kaamyaab banaaya, tumse itna pyaar karte hai, fir aisi baatein kaise kar sakte ho tum. Agar unhe pataa chal jaaye ki tum aisa sochte ho, toh socha hai unhe kaisa lagega. Aaj ke baad tum please aisa kuch mat bolna... Tumhe na meri kasam."

He leaned towards me & pulled me in a hug, "Kabhi nahi bolunga... I promise. Tum mujhe chod kar nahi jaaogi na Naina???" I looked in his eyes, "Kabhi nahi jaaungi tumhe chod kar. Agar bhagwan bhi aa jaaye na lene tab bhi nahi jaaungi... I Promise..." I kissed him on his cheek lightly. He smiled through his tears, "Madam... Bas itna sa hi???" And I blushed pushing him away. "Suno... Kal bhi aaoge na lene?" I asked diverting his mind. He nodded & we stood up as it was getting too late. "Aur suno... Kal kuch white pehenna..." He nodded again. He came to drop me till the elevator. "Aur suno... Bike sambhal kar chalaana aur ghar jaakar hi message kar dena. Bhool mat jaana kal ki tarah." He again nodded like a child. "Aur suno... Khaana thik se kha lena... Samjhe na???" And before he could nod again, I kissed his on his cheek again & ran into the waiting elevator. I heard his 'Paagal' before the elevator doors closed. I smiled shyly hitting my head lightly, "Sach mein paagal ho gayi hun main."

I had my dinner happily with my parents after I received his message that he had reached home safely. I laid back on my bed & I replayed the conversation between us in the garden. How could his own mother do this to him? Didn't she feel any love, any emotion towards him? He was just four years old, when his mother got remarried. How did he cope up with all this? He had lost both his parents, even if one was not really dead. I felt bad for him. I had to do something about it.

My heart was telling me constantly to reveal my feelings to him. But I held back deciding to take it slow. I wanted to give him all the happiness he deserved. I promised myself that from now onwards, I would give him all the happiness. He would get a family. He would get all the love he has craved till now. I now knew why he thought that he loved Sunaina... He had never got love in his life apart from Nanu, Munna & Pandit. He doesn't know what love feels like & I'm going to make sure he will know & experience it soon. I would give my 100% to him to make him realize his feelings.

I pinged him, asking him if he had his dinner. He replied in few minutes that he would call me in a while. My phone rang exactly after five minutes, "Hello... Sameer..." "Hiii Naina..." his voice sounded low, "Tumne khaana khaaya Sameer?" "Haannn... Aur tumne?" "Haannn... Mera bhi ho gaya. Tum kya kar rahe ho abhi?" "Naina... Main balcony mein akela baitha hun... aasmaan mein chaand taare dekh raha hun." I could feel his loneliness... "Tum akele kaise hue Sameer... Main bhi apni khidki se chaand taare dekh rahi hun. Mujhe toh tumhara chehra bhi nazar aa raha hai chaand mein. Tum bhi dhyaan se dekho... Tumhe bhi chaand mein koi dikh jaayega." I heard his soft reply, "Mujhe toh aajkal sirf ek hi chehra dikhaayi deta hai... Aur woh hai tumhara Naina..." I could hear his husky voice now. I was breathing too deeply & he too was doing the same.

"Naina... Kal tum bhi white hi pehen ke aana please." I smiled at his sweet request & agreed instantly, "Thik hai... Ab so jao Sameer... Bohot raat ho gayi hai." "Naina... Thodi der baat karo na... Tumse baat karna bohot accha lagta hai." "Sirf baat karna accha lagta hai Sameer?" "Nahi..." That was his reply & I understood his unsaid words. We didn't utter a single word for ten minutes but were just listening to each other's breaths on the call. "Nainaaa..." his voice had turned hoarse. I gulped, "Sameer... So jao... Kal milenge subah... Goodnight..." "Sirf goodnight bologi Naina?" "Arey haan... kuch aur bhi bolna bhool gayi. Goodnight... Sweet Dreams Sameer..." I laughed inwardly when he said, "Tum na kuch samajti hi nahi... Goodnight... Sweet Dreams..."

Before he could disconnect the call, I said softly, "Sameer.... Muuuuaaaaaaaaaahhh." I gave him a loud long kiss virtually & disconnected the call. I stood in front of the mirror... I was changing now... The love for him was changing me & I could see that in my reflection. I blushed at what I had done just a while ago... I went towards the bed & slept having beautiful dreams of my Sameer.

The next few days went hectic for all of us as we had to wind up our work before the Diwali holidays began. Sameer picked me up & dropped me home every day... It had become our routine. Our short coffee breaks, our secret moments in the conference room, our tiffin sharing while feeding each other, our hugs & kisses, we were enjoying our togetherness. Once he had to drop me at the mall, as my mother wanted to do some last-minute Diwali shopping. He had wanted to join us for the shopping but I had sent him home. I was also enjoying the lovey-dovey moments of Preeti & Pandit, and also of Swati & Munna. I hadn't expected something like this to happen. But nonetheless we were all happy & content. It was already Thursday evening when we all left our office tired.

The next day was a Diwali celebration in our office & we had to do some preparations. When we were sitting on our regular bench in my complex's garden that day, I gifted Sameer a red brocade kurta set. He was extremely happy. He pouted, "Par main toh kuch bhi nahi laaya tumhare liye..." I just pulled his cheeks, "Fir kabhi de dena... Aur suno... Tumhe yeh kurta office celebration mein kal pehenna hai... Pehnoge na???" He happily agreed, "Ab tum itne pyaar se keh rahi ho toh zaroor pehnunga... Waise tum kya pehenne wali ho celebration mein Naina???" I just shrugged, "Tum kal hi dekh lena..." He raised his eyebrows curiously, "Bolo na Naina???" "Sameer... Main kal wohi red Anarkali dress pehenne wali hun jo humne mall se liya tha... Isliye toh tumhare liye yeh red kurta set laayi, taaki hum color coordinated rahe... Samjhe kuch???" He smiled sweetly & kissed me on my cheeks one by one. "Tum itni pyaari kyun ho Naina???" I just blushed at his comment & shied away.

"Chalo ab late ho raha hai. Kal subah as usual main lene aa jaunga. Late mat hona bilkul." I nodded & went towards my building. I was asking him from last two days to join me at my place for dinner. But he denied every time. I had already told my parents about Sameer & they wanted to meet him. But the stubborn Maheshwari wasn't ready to visit my home yet. "Sameer... Ummmm... Diwali toh hum tumhare ghar celebrate karnewale hai. Toh kya tum Diwali ke next day mere ghar aaoge lunch ke liye?" I was praying to God that he should agree to that. He paused for a minute, "Thik hai Naina... Main aaunga tumhare ghar..." I was beyond happy & just hugged him... "Waise main Munna, Pandit, Preeti aur Swati ko bhi bulane wali hun. Bohot enjoy karenge hum sab..." He hugged me tightly & whispered, "Haannn..."

I started my instruction list as usual regarding driving slowly, messaging me after he reached home safely, have his dinner properly & to sleep well. He was continuously smiling throughout my blabbering. The elevator door opened & I entered, not before kissing him on his cheek. That day we talked as usual but only for some minutes as we had to keep our clothes ready for the next day... I slept peacefully dreaming about my love & hoping that he would realize his feelings soon...
