Recap: Goutham take Mithra to his penthouse for the lunch date.

***************

Goutham and Mithra ascended the stairs and only then Mithra noticed the ceiling and stairs decorated with flowers. They stood before a room of which the door was closed and a arch was made of flowers to the entrance. A golden double heart was sticked on the door and Mithra could feel the room must be special to him. 

Goutham: You wanted to know about me and infact you have a lot of questions in your mind. This room has answers to all your questions. Go ahead and open it Mithra.

Mithra slowly turned the knob and opened the door. She gasped when rose petals fell over her head in welcoming her. It was a huge room and it was also decorated with heart balloons that stick to the ceiling and the floor was completely covered with rose petals. She froze seeing a real life portrait of her youngerself from college. She touched it and then her eyes fell on many photos of her from college, driving her scooty, during the college farewell, temple, her first day at MiGo, at beach. 

Mithra felt her body trembling and couldn't figure if she was dreaming until she felt Goutham's presence behind her. He hugged her and made her stand before a picture.

Goutham: This picture was the first time I saw you Mithra. The moment you took my heart away with you. That was my first and lucky day in college and I found my destiny, my soulmate.

Mithra couldn't speak hearing his words. He pulled her to the next photo in which she was dressed in a saree.

Goutham: This was taken during college farewell. You looked so beautiful and I had to guard you from the boys who were gawking at you. That was the first time I saw you in saree. You looked like an goddess.

Mithra saw the glint in his eyes as he was reminiscing the day. She moved to the next picture where she was smiling holding roses.

Goutham: This one was taken on women's day. You know how much you were upset for not having your favourite white roses ? Thank god, I was able to get some roses on time. The cashier in the canteen was a nice man he didn't question me much and helped me to give the roses to you. I could buy all the roses in the world to see those smile on your face.

Mithra gulped hearing his words and touched the picture gently. They were standing before the picture where she was standing before MiGo on her first day.

Goutham: This is very special. Your first step on your dream career and how could I miss it ? 

They came to the end and it was the picture of Mithra which was taken from the college get together.He let go of her hand and Mithra watched him taking a step back smiling at her and went on his one knee.

Goutham: Mithra, I have fallen head over heels for you five years back when I saw you for the first time. That moment was enough for me to know that you are the one for me and I beleive I am the one for you. Please don't be scared that stalked you. I lived with you just that you didn't know my presence around you. My day started and ended with you. There was never a moment that spent without your thoughts in mind. I waited all these years so that I would be ready in everyway to welcome you in my life. 

People who knew my feelings for you said that it was infatuation or obsession but trust me Mithra, my feelings has only increased over years even without your presence around me so its not infatuation. You have made me a better and successful person so its not an obsession. You are not a posession to force myself on you and I will never do that.

Goutham put his hand inside his pocket and took a platinum ring in his hand for her.

I love you Mithra..... You are the first and also will be the last woman in my life to share me and my everything. I promise to stand beside you throughout our life. Give me a chance to smile together, grow together, succeed together, share all our happiness and worries, to have beautiful life and to create a amazing world of our own.. you and me with our little ones in it. I will be yours forever. Will you love me and be mine forever ?

Mithra was sobbing hearing all his words and when he asked her out she slumped on the floor before him and hugged him wounding her hands around his neck.

Mithra: I love you Goutham, sure I can't love you like you do me but I will love you forever. I don't know how but I fell for you long back when I saw you for the first time in our office. I tried to deny my feelings but everytime I failed and I couldn't fight anymore. I promise to stay by you. We will be together and create our own beautiful world and ... I will be only yours Goutham.. I am all yours forver.. I love you Goutham. I love you so much.

Goutham stood carrying her and sat on the couch with her on his lap. Mithra was still sobbing in the crook of his neck. He cupped her face and wiped all her tears and shook his head gesturing to stop crying. 

Mithra: How could you love me to this extent ? What did I ever do for you that you love me so much ? You waited so many years and loved me but I never knew that there was someone who was loving me like I am his whole world. 

Goutham: shhh, Your smile alone is enough for me to feel special Mithra. Every single second of wait over the years was worth because I waited for you. it was you Mithra. You deserve only the best in this world and I had to transform myself atleast to something better to be in your life.

Mithra: Are you kidding ? You are the best Goutham. I m the luckiest in the world that I got you in my life. Whoever gets to know about us will be jealous of me for having you in my life. I promise to keep you all to myself and I swear to fight anyone who will try to take you away from me. 

Goutham felt content hearing her words and showed the ring in his hand. Mithra showed her hand and he slid the ring in her finger.

Goutham: Don't worry about your parents questioning about this ring. This is a platinum ring but I have got this plated with silver so that you will not have problem if your parents question you and for this diamond you can tell them this is just crystal stone.

Mithra: This is beautiful and you have made me officially yours. 

She hugged him and Goutham kissed her temple caressing her hair.

Goutham: I m so happy today that I will do anything you ask me for. 

Mithra: Is it so ? Then what about you change into casuals. You have bored me enough with your formals that I assume you sleep in suite only.

Goutham laughed at her words and stood carrying her in briday style. He stood before his room and gestured her to open it. As soon as she opened it he entered the walkin closet and made her stand. 

Goutham: Open the wardrobe and choose one in which you want to see me now. But promise me you won't cry because you have cried a lot and I don't want to see you crying anymore even if they are happy tears.

Mithra: Why will I cry for you wearing casuals ? I m not a cry baby Goutham.

Goutham: Will see that but I swear if you cry then I will have you locked with me in this closet. There is no going out of this place.

Mithra opened the wardrobe and gasped in shock. She turned around with her hand on her hip.

Mithra: Its like I have entered a shop and you are roaming like a model in those suites. 

She searched through the dresses and picked a green haf sleeve Tshirt with jean and dumped in his hand. Goutham pulled her cheeks and entered the washroom to get changed into. Mithra walked out of the close, she was looking around his room and found her photo on the night stand. She sat on the couch and looked at his photo on the wall and he looked dapper that she couldn't avert her eyes.

Goutham: I m all yours and you can watch me directly my sunshine, I won't mind that.

Goutham stood leaning on the wall with his hands inside the pocket. Mithra bit her lips watching him looking hot in the half sleeve hugging his biceps. 

Mithra: You look.... handsome in casuals too... 

He cocked his eyebrows and Mithra blushed looking away from him and turned to the wall where his picture hung. Goutham walked to her and wound his around her chest from behind.

She looked at his arm and her eyes were ready to fall out of socket as her gaze fell on the very familiar anklet on his wrist. She slowly touched it and Goutham kissed her cheeks.

Goutham: You left this behind on the day I met you first and I have saved, treasured it all these years. It has been a part of me all these years. I never rolled my sleeves or wore casuals because I don't want to reveal it you until you reciprocate my feelings.

Mithra turned around and held his hand to look at the anklet but again she was shocked to see the tattoo on his wrist. Goutham smiled and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes as he saw her trying to question him about the tattoo.

Goutham: When I left to London it was like living in a hell without seeing you and being around you so I got this done to soothe my pain of missing you. Now you are in trouble sunshine. I m locking you with me here for crying inspite of my warning.

Mithra: You have locked me already with you for life time Goutham. Tell me or teach me how could I love you the way you love me because I m sure that I will fail if I try to love you more than you do me. How are you so selfless Goutham ? Have you ever thought of your life in all these years. What if I got married to someone else ?

Goutham pulled her snaking his hand around her waist and caressed her cheeks with his thumb looking into her eyes directly. Their lips were brushing as he spoke to her.

Goutham: Did you think I would let go of you easily from my life even before I gave my fight for you ? I know you Mithra, you never let a guy in your life though there were a few behind you I had my own ways to keep you safe from them.

Goutham pressed his lips on her and Mithra shut her eyes savouring the moment. He slowly and gently sucked on her lower lip his palm squeezing her clothed waist seeking for entrance. She gave in and they kissed each other at the slowest pace possible. Her legs wobbled of standing on her toes for a long time and if not for his hold she would have fell on her shaky legs. He pulled back from the kiss only to carry her and settled on the couch with her on his lap and started kissing but this time the kiss was anything but slow and gentle.
