Recap: Myra get into a minor accident and Keshav save her.

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

Myra at the age of 20:

Myra was literally enjoying her life and now her love for Krish has only increased with each passing year with all the care and love she was receiving. Still she was disappointed that Krish hasn't proposed her yet but she was willing to wait until he did. She and Naina were in the same college as Krish and enjoyed her college life with them. 

On the day of his campus selection she woke up early and waited for him. As usual he came to her and kissed her cheek before he left to college for the selection. Myra returned home from college and paced in her room waiting for him to know the results. The door opened and Krish entered the room. He hoisted her in air and twirled her until she felt giddy.

Krish: I got selected Myra, my dear lucky charm.

Myra: I m so happy for you Krish. You are the best and you deserve only the best.

Krish: Nothing will go wrong when you are with me Myra.

Myra: Oh hello Mr. Idiot, what will you do when I m not with you ? I will leave you when I get married to someone.

Krish gritted his teeth crushed her in his embrace hearing her words.

Krish: I will not let you go away from me Myra. We will be together forever and I will make sure of it. I can't imagine a day without you Myra so please don't ever say that you will leave me, even if that is for a joke.

Myra: I m not going anywhere leaving you Krish. We will be together forever and I know you will not let me go.

Krish: Never, I will not leave you Myra.

Myra Mv: Ofcourse don't leave me Krish. I can't wait for you to propose me once you are over with the college and settle with the job. I would propose you but I don't want to distract you Krish. I m waiting for the day.

Myra: so what special will I get for getting selected ?

Krish: I had plans for the complete day tomorrow for us but uncle called and informed me that Roshni will be arriving early morning tomorrow. He wanted me to take care of her since I m the only friend she has here in Chennai. We shall go to movie and lunch. What say ?

Myra: Krish, I don't like her at all. I don't know why but I don't get any good vibes from her so please be careful. I m warning you.

Krish: Myra, she doesn't talk to anyone other than me and its just a harmless crush. Don't you have a crush on that mystery youtube singer?

Myra: But I don't meet him or talk to him Krish. You meet Roshni, talk to her and now you even want her to tag with us. I hate someone poking their nose between us.

Krish: She is just my cousin Myra. Why do you worry ? Are you jealous baby ?

Myra: Shut up. Why will I be jealous when I know you are with me ?

Krish: Simple. she doesn't have friends other than me so lets take her with us. Please Myra.

Myra: Ok, only for you but not next time.

Krish: Don't worry about next time. I will be busy with job and I will hardly find time to stay home so it will be only you and me anytime.

Krish flicked her nose and they watched movie. Vasundra who was well aware of her daughter's love for Krish cocked her eyebrows and Myra shook her head. Once Krish left Vasundra dragged Myra to her room and sat next to her.

Vasundra: so, did he propose you ?

Myra: Not yet maa. He just got selected for his job and let him get settled.

Vasundra: I can't wait for the day to see you both confess. That boy is behaving like he has possessed you already. Please avoid hugging and kissing infront of us. You both are not kids anymore.

Myra: Maa, that was causal hug and innocent kisses. Don't blow that.

Vasundra: That would be causal hug and innocent kiss only if you both were still the 4 year old Myra and 6 year old Krish but now you both are grown up.

Myra groaned and ran away to her room. The next day Krish dropped her at college and returned home since he was on study holiday. By evening Krish was waiting for her at the college gate to pick her back to home but panicked when he saw her walking out with tears in her eyes and Naina consoling her.

Krish dropped the bike and rushed to her pulling her to his embrace.

Krish: What happened Myra ?

Naina: Krish, a guy from our class started teasing Myra holding her hands. He knew you will not be around Myra today so he took advantage of it.

Krish: That bloody bastard.

Krish walked past them but Naina stopped him and Myra held his hand nodding as no. Only then Krish saw the bruise on her wrist and touched them gently. Myra hissed and Krish wiped her tears with his thumb.

Naina: First take her home. We have complained about him to the principal. He is suspended for a month and principal has warned to file a complaint to police if he repeats. His parents was also called today.

Krish: I will not let go of him so easily and he has to pay for it. Let me take you home and then I will handle him.

He started the bike and Myra hopped behind him leaning on his back. Krish held her hand and wrapped it around his waist, giving a gentle pat to console her.

As they reached home Vasundra was shocked to see Myra crying. With Krish she took Myra to her room and Krish applied medicine to the bruise on her wrist but he was still burning in rage.

Krish: Relax and take a nap. I will be back soon.

Myra: Where are you going ?

Krish: I need to take care of something and I will be back before you wake up from your nap.

Vasundra: Krish, don't do any harm to him. I will inform uncle to report him to the principal or we can even file a complaint to the police.

Krish: That is not required aunty. Naina and Myra have reported him to the principal and everything is taken care. I will be back soon.

He rolled his sleeves and stormed out of her room. Myra called Naina and informed her about Krish leaving in complete rage but Naina only convinced her to not stop him. Myra couldn't sleep and when Krish returned at night he was all smiling and plopped on her bed.

Krish: How are you Myra ?

Myra: Why are you smiling like an idiot ? What did you do ?

Krish: Something good. Now lets not discuss about that and come lets have dinner.

Myra simply hummed and Krish moved her hair behind her ear. They returned to the hall and called Vasundra to serve dinner.

Vasundra: Krish, you better take Myra to your home and you can have her with you forever. The only time you leave her is at night to sleep.

Krish: Myra, aunty doesn't have a problem so pack your things and come with me.

Vasundra and Myra gasped hearing his words and he looked between them.

Krish: What ? I m serious. I will take her with me.

Vasundra: Not so soon. Let her complete her studies and then we shall talk about this.

Krish: Whatever you say aunty. We are going out tomorrow so don't bother to cook lunch and dinner.

The next day Krish, Myra and Roshni arrived at a mall and Krish was holding Myra's hand all the while as they roamed until the movie time. Roshni felt irritated when Myra and Krish were enjoying the movie together laughing and passing comments.

When they walked out of the theatre Roshni stopped Krish and Myra who were walking ahead of her.

Roshni: Krish, you could have come with Myra alone today. You both are behaving as if I m invisible here. Its really irritating. I understand you are best friends but don't treat someone like shit.

Roshni walked away and Krish looked at Myra who was looking with her mouth open. Krish pushed her chin up to close her mouth.

Krish: She is pissed. Lets get her before she complains to amma or uncle.

Myra: Yeah ofcourse your crush is pissed and we should convince her. Go chase her idiot.

Krish and Myra ran behind her to stop her. Krish convinced her and Myra too apologized to her and they had lunch together. Myra lost her appetite when Roshni fed food to Krish from her plate.

Krish: Myra, what happened ? why are you not eating ? Let me feed you.

Myra: No Krish, I feel tired and my head aches a little. Shall we return home ?

Krish: Why didn't you tell me already ? Come lets go.

Roshni: Krish, lets go to the beach before we leave for home.

Krish: Sorry Roshni, Myra is not well and her head ache will intense if she doesn't get sleep so lets go home.

Roshni: She can sleep in car and we shall go to the beach. Please.

Myra: Its ok Krish, take her and I will go home in a cab.

Krish: Are you kidding Myra ? I m not leaving you alone. Lets go now and beach is not running away anywhere. We shall go some other time.

Krish paid the bill and they returned home. Myra closed the door to her room and called Naina, she started ranting about everything happened and Naina was listening patiently.

Naina: You will forget everything about Roshni after hearing what I m about to say to you Myra.

Myra: what happened ?

Naina: I heard that the guy was thrashed and has been admitted in hospital for broken arm.

Myra: Did Krish do that for me ?

Naina: Now tell me why will he break someone's arm for you if he doesn't have any feelings for you ? 

Myra: You are right Naina but I m feeling so insecured before Roshni. You know, she is all a guy want in his life such a beauty queen she is and Krish has not yet confessed his love to me so I m just scared even if he doesn't let me down infront of her.

Naina: I seriously don't know why you guys are not confessing. Take my advice serious and better propose him instead of waiting for him to do. I too don't feel any positive vibe around her and we don't want to risk so better propose him. You are now 20 and children these days are committed at the age of 14 or 15

Myra: Let me think. I m completely bored and down to think anything.

Naina: In that case I have something else that will lit up your mind.

Myra: Don't tell me that my mystery singer has uploaded another cover song.

Naina: what if say yes ?

Myra cut the call abruptly and opened youtube in her mobile. In the past 4 years she has been addicted to the mystery singer from youtube who made made cover songs while playing guitar but he had never revealed his identity and made the covers in dark. Being a sucker for guitar and songs Myra grew a crush over that mystery guy and never missed any of his songs. She would spend hours watching his songs on loop.

Myra: Who are you man ? Do you have any idea of revealing your face ? God you have such a killer voice. I feel so fresh and happy now. Thank you so much.

A week later it was Madan's 60th birthday and a small get together was arranged in a resort garden. Close relatives and friends were invited for the party. Myra reached the garden and there was a sudden power cut. Myra stumbled on a chair and was about to fall but a pair of hands held her and Myra breathed in her favourite cologne.

Myra: Thank you so much Krish. You are my saviour and you save me everytime I m in danger.

She placed a kiss on his cheek and gasped as it was the first time she initiated a kiss.

Myra: Oh my god, I m so sorry Krish. I didn't know what came over and I kissed you. I m so sorry.

She felt so nervous and also heard some one calling for Krish to check on the power. She moved back from his hold in a haste but her dupatta stuck in his watch. She pulled her dupatta with a little force and he left from there. When the power was back she noticed a tassel was missing from her dupatta and she cursed herself for the kiss.

Myra Mv: Ok, nothing to worry. He is Krish and I can be normal around him. Its not like he hasn't kissed me but I wanted my first kiss to be special even if that was a cheek one. Just don't bring this kiss into discussion and embarrass more. Atleast my second kiss must be special.

She searched for Krish and saw him serving juice to the guest. She stopped him and showed the dupatta to him. Krish chuckled at the way she was pouting and pinched her cheek.

Myra: Don't do that. Look my tassel is missing because of you ?

Krish: Because of me ? Let it be. We shall buy as many as you want this week end. Happy doll ?

Myra: You are the best.

She gave a quick hug to him and helped him to serve the guest. When everyone was ready Madan saw Archana and she dialled Keshav's number to check on him.

Madan: Where is he ? Is he coming or not ?

Archana: He is close by the resort and will reach in 5 minutes.

Madan: I don't know what is he upto.

Within few minutes they saw Keshav and a girl walking together and Archana was happy to see them.

Archana: I think this time he will agree to our words.

Madan: Keep dreaming.

Archana hugged Keshav and he wished his father for his birthday. Madan cut the cake and fed his wife first and then the children. Archana pulled the girl who arrived with Keshav and sat next to her holding her hand.

Archana: Are you Keshav's friend ?

Girl: I m Rachel, his friend's sister. I had some work in Chennai and Keshav offered to drive me. Also for me, he is not only my brother's friend.

Archana: What does that mean ? 

Rachel: I love him aunty. I proposed him 5 years back but he is not ready to accept me. Will you please talk to him ?

Archana: Ofcourse I will talk to him. I will be very happy and can't wait to see him married.

Archana called Keshav who looked between Rachel and his mother.

Archana: Keshav, you are 30 now. Don't you think you should get married ? Rachel love you a lot so why not give her a chance ?

Keshav: Rachel, we talked about this and you promised me that you will not bring this anytime again so what happened now ? Didn't I make it clear that I don't see you as more than friend's sister ? If you cannot get over this then I m so sorry that this will be our last meet. I don't want to lead you when there is no hope of us ending together. I will book a cab and you must leave.

Rachel: Keshav, please. I m sorry for bringing up this topic. I don't want to leave you. Please let me be your friend atleast. I promise that this will never happen.

Keshav: No Rachel, I don't think this will do any good to you so its better you find someone for you. I will talk to your brother.

Archana: Why do you do this Keshav ? Why can't you see my worries for you ? How long will you stay alone ? Do you have any idea of returning home ? What is happening in your life ?

Keshav: Maa, I m doing good and busy with works. Now I m used to live alone ad that gives me peace. Also it is not like I don't love you all anymore. You are my family and I love you all a lot but I m not ready for marriage. If you are about to drag this then I will take my leave.

Archana: Don't go, please. I won't force you anymore. Please stay with us for some days atleast.

Keshav nodded his head and booked a cab for Rachel to leave. Myra sauntered to them holding a tray of cakes and smiled at Keshav.

Myra: How are you uncle ? Why are you not coming home ? Aunty, I think he got married secretly and who knows his children should be enrolled in school too.

Keshav: Yes, you are right butterfly. I got admission for my elder son in engineering college yesterday.

Myra gasped and Archana chuckled at her reaction. Keshav picked a piece of cake and stuffed in her open mouth before he walked away. Myra chewed and swallowed the cake and turned to Archana who was still laughing.

Myra: Was he teasing me ?

Archana: you are too late Myra. Turn around and Krish is looking for you.

Myra smiled and returned to Krish. He took the tray from her and dragged her to have dinner.

Krish: You didn't have snacks in the evening and must be hungry. Come I will get a plate for you.

Myra got seated and Krish returned with two plates and passed one to her and was about to leave but Myra stopped him.

Myra: Where are you going ?

Krish: I will give this plate to Roshni and be back in a minute.

Myra: I won't eat until you are back. Why can't she get a plate for herself ?

Krish: I will be back in a minute my jealous queen. Will that be ok ?

Myra smiled with a nod and he ruffled her hair before leaving from there.
