Priya's POV

I've been tossing and turning on my bed for the last two hours, still I'm not able to sleep.

I'm having a mixture of all kinds of feelings. I'm happy for Adi. no arjun.but I'm a little sad for his parents. I'm excited to marry him, and I'm scared of his new found nature as he's a completely different person now. I wanted to talk to him and spend time with him but again I don't want to disturb him now.

So all these emotions aren't letting me sleep. Pushing the blanket away, I took my mobile. After consoling me, my mom returned my mobile with the Arjun number in it.

I looked at the mobile screen for the nth time. I kept his number in the diary with just one press and I could call him.but i can't.

Time is 12:08 AM. Tomorrow morning is my marriage with him. He might be sleeping peacefully. If I called him at this hour of night, what would he think of me ?

A disparate girl ?

'But that's what the truth is, you are too disparate to talk with him' my mind mocked me.

I sat straight on my bed, taking a long breath. I looked at mobileSlowly I forward my finger to press the 'call' option. Suddenly my mobile rang and I jumped out of my place.

Shit, this stupid mobile rang scared me I calmed myself and took the mobile in my hands to see who is it.

I was quite surprised to see Arjun's name on display. Without any delay I answered his call.

" Hello " we both spoke in unison.

" No " again we both said the same. we chuckled at our little moment.

" Am I disturbing your sleep ?" Arjun asked in a husky voice.

Wait, husky voice ? But why ? Is he in the bathroom ? Or under a blanket ?

I smiled and thought you can never disturb me arjun.... without you I'll be disturbed.

" Actually, no , I'm not able to sleep, " I said the fact.

" Ok.that's good now open your room balcony door quick " again he said in a husky voice.

What's wrong with him ? Why is he talking in a husky voice ? And why should I open my room balcony door ? Wait, how did he know that I had closed my room windows ?

" Because I'm otherside of your balcony door " I hear his husky voice from the other side.

" What ? " I asked in shock.

" Priya I'll answer your questions later please open the balcony door. I'm freezing outside. It's damn cold here " he was blambring in a husky voice while I ran to the balcony and opened the door.

As soon as i opened the door, arjun barked inside and went to my bed and took the blanket he covered himself fully wrapping that blanket on him.

Poor baby must be feeling cold. I said to myself and locked the door .I went to my room's main door and checked whether it's locked or not as I can't take risk, especially when Arjun just barked into my room through the balcony And the main door was locked.

Good.

"What are you doing here ? don't You know what will happen If someone sees us together like this ? " I asked him to cross my arms till my chest.

He just looked at me for a good minutes then replied " how're you feeling now ? " He asked with so much concern .

Owwww he cares for me. isn't a good step towards our relationship ? It is.

" I'm perfectly fine, " I said and smiled at him.

" You can sit, as I came to spend some time with you..... earlier I left because I didn't want to disappoint aunty .But I know you too wanted me to stay with you like me." He said with smirked

Everything has changed except our understanding and bond and a rare heart to heart connection. He understood me just with a glance. After whatever mom told me I was tense, what if our relationship didn't work ? Because he's a completely different person now but now I think we are progressing in our relationship. Surely I'll steal his heart like he did.

" Priya " i heard his voice,

" Huhh...."

" I....um... first of all sit down...i want to share two important things with you about my past " he said in an all serious tone.

He was continuously pressing his thumb with fingers. One of the rare things which he does when he's nervous is that something never changes. I thought about it and went to bed with a pillow in my hand. I sat down and high the pillow till my chest area, as my t-shirt is a long V cut. He turned towards me, getting out of the blanket. I gave all my attention to him.

" First thing is when i was doing masters in banglore i had a girlfriend her name was Nithya, she was the one who first proposed me and i accepted it since i didn't had any reasons to say No to her it wasn't a serious relationship but still i had it was barely a year since our relationship but she broke up with me saying i don't gave her importance and i didnt spend my time with her ummm she was right being in relationship i never felt like to be with her or spend my time with her it felt so artificial. I swear i didn't do that intentionally it just i never felt like she is the one who own my heart i was so careless towards her she couldn't take these all so she left me actually what amazed me is i never felt pain for losing her i never cried for her i never suffered for to be with her after masters i totally forgot her. Just yesterday i recognised about her and I felt an urge to share with you before our marriage. and the second is i met with an accident when i was doing first year in college.i lost my parents along with my memories yeah i lost my memories no matter how hard i tried but i couldn't remember anything after a point of life i started to accept it and live my life as god lead me whom you saw in our engagement they're not my real parents. they're my uncle and aunty after my parents left me they're the one who took care of me like their own son so they're not less than my parents i don't know what i was before whom i was before and how i was all i know is now I'm Arjun so that's it.'' He finished saying and looked at me for an answer.

I don't know what come into me that i hugged him instead of Answering him.

He was so surprised, I waited for his hands to hug me back.....and after a few seconds he did. He hugged me.

At first when he said about his relationship it pained, how can he do this when he's mine. but later i thought it wasn't his mistake....he didn't had any memories so it's obvious for him to be in a relationship. But what shocked me was when he said he never had any kind of serious feelings for her even after being in a relationship for a year. I think it was his inner soul that never accepted a girl whole heartedly who is not me. I smiled realising somewhere in his heart I'm still alive without his own consent. The hug was so comforting.

I hugged him because I didn't want him to see my tears. He will feel bad about himself if he sees me crying.

I wiped my tears without his knowledge when I hugged him.

a few minutes later I parted away from him and looked at the floor , able to see his eyes.

" The tiles must be so beautiful, don't they ? " He asked me. I gave him a confused look as i didn't get what he meant

" Then what? Whenever I'm around you, your eyes automatically find the floor rather than me so it must be beautiful right ? " He whined like a baby.

"Umm no it just " before i could complete he spoke.

" Yeah yeah I know you are shy , introverted nature etc, etc " He said in a sarcastic way.

I chuckled at his behaviour " well, it's not like before. Now I'm comfortable with you so no problem. " I told him and I replied he gave me a million dollar smile.

" I'm glad to know, " he added.

" So you don't have any problem with my past?" He asked .

" Your question itself has your answer Arjun " I said and he narrowed his eyebrows in confusion.

" You yourself said it's your Past. I don't have anything to do with your Past. All I want is your present and future with me.." I told him what I felt at the moment honestly.

" Hmmm " he hummed in response with a smudge smile.

After that none of us spoke anything, there's was comfortable silence between us

After that none of us spoke anything, there was comfortable silence between us.

I took my time to admire him. He's muffled hair were looking so cute while he's keeping me with his smile.

" Won't you ask me about my past ?" Breaking our trens i asked him.

" What's the use of asking ? When I clearly don't even care about it until your past disturbs our future. " He said, making me wonder.

Mom was right, he is so good to be true.

" Friends ? " He asked me to forward his hands...... without any hesitation i gave my hand and said " yep friends' ' .

" Doesn't it feel like we are doing the exact same thing which they show in every single indian serial ? Like the couple will Marry each other without knowing each other just for the sake of their family. Then they decide to be friends on their first night. After a few months they will fall in love with each other for sure. then they call it destined love. isn't it ? " He asked me and I burst into laughter.

He's right for a reason, maybe that's what every arranged marriage couple feels.

" BTW what was your opinion when you saw it for the first time ? " He asked me being excited to know.

" Caveman " hearing my unexpected answer he widened his eyes in disbelief.

Seeing his cute reaction i giggled

Seeing his cute reaction I giggled.

" What don't give me that look you know how hard it was for me to find your face in between your beard and hairs " saying this again i burst into laughter. He pouted when I laughed at me.

" Ok..ok sorry but honestly that's what i thought when i first saw you " i said mumbled controllo my laugh.

He nodded his head in approval and murmured " though I don't like what you said but I should admit you were right I literally looked like one. '' Saying this he too joined me in laughing.

" You know when I met you I left saying I have important work to do ? " He asked me and I nodded at him as I remember.

" Yeah, that important work was in the salon. After meeting you I went straight to the salon to get rid of those jungle hairs and beards, " Arjun grumbled.

" That's really a good thing you did BTW what was your first opinion on me ? When you first saw me '' I asked in enthusiasm. I want to know his reason for marrying me.

" Well I saw you for the first time in your office. okay i accept after your mom approached me for marrying you i demand for some time to think and in those mean days i wanted to know about you without disturbing you. So I don't have any other options. I had to visit your office. You can call it stalking. I won't mind either because I literally did that. I know I should not be doing that.Yet I can't help it, priya. you were so attractive for heaven sake. Maybe more than that, I don't know. I never noticed a girl this close to hell . I never admired a girl like I did when I'm around you. I always had the feeling that I already knew you. i already saw you somewhere...but i don't have any ideas about it when i saw you for the first time you were talking something with one of your office colleague Every time you smiled i had some unknown feelings the way your big brown orbs moves ups and downs whenever you think something serious they was your lips curls before you smile the way you starch your eyebrows when you're confused for something. the way you clench your jaw when you are angry, the way you bite your lips when you are nervous, the way you adjust your baby hairs behind your ears when they fall on your face disturbing you. This all made me attracted towards you don't think of these all as a physical attraction of mine. No it's not, my mind never allows me to imagine you in that way. in fact my eyes never saw below your face. I have pure feelings for you. it's just I'm not aware what kind of feelings " by the time he finished saying i throw my hands around his neck and hugged me tightly like if i loosened my grip he will vanish in air.

This is the second time I've hugged him in the last few minutes. I can't help it. He's so adorable that I can't control myself for doing this. I don't want to leave him. He's mine, only mine. I can feel he's already in love with me. it's just he needs some time to realise his feelings. It's ok I'll wait for him.

I thought to tell him about that we already know each other from school time and about our love how i misunderstood his death news seven years of my pain and stuffer....but i didn't said anything because if i did he will be pain to he will tourchal himself by trying to remember our past. he won't be able to live in preset nor he can go into our past. so it's better if i kept these things with me. I can start a new life with him like he thinks.

We talked about almost everything. We really had a good time together and I can feel he too enjoyed my company like I did.

Time was 2:10 AM. I didn't believe two and half hours passed and we didn't feel bored even for a minute.

He seemed sleepy, so I told him to go back to his room and sleep as we have to wake up early in the morning. He listened to me and went out the same way he came by balcony.

Thank god my room is I'm first floor itself so I don't have to worry about him.

After he left I lay down on my bed with a wide smile. We talked about so many things, like our likes and dislikes. our most funny moments, most embarrassing moments. We even talked about our future. He assured me that he won't initiate any intimacy without my consent though it wasn't needed cause I really don't mind having intimacy with him. I trust him. After all, he's my love.

tomorrow is a big day for me. I'm going to marry the person whom I loved for the first time and nth time. It's always about him. No one has the power to affect me in such a way he does.

Thinking about all these, I closed my eyes for a peaceful sleep.
