A/N - Hey all, I am back with the next chapter of Moonlight. Also I kinda wanna experiment with this story, as it's my first work individually. So this chapter is in different POVs (Point of views). So let me know if it's good the way it was or is better with POVs. Please note, the POVs will change as and when you see (__) before or after a stanza.

This is the second update for the day. As my next exam is on Monday, and I am prepared for it, a bit of revision is remaining, but I'll be done with it.

I want to dedicate this chapter to this lovely girl @anusandhir , she has been constantly voting every chapter of mine! <3 Thanks girlie. :)

Here you go! <3

Happy Reading! :)

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

"Sanyukta, jaldi aao, kitna time lagati ho yaar!" Exclaimed Randhir as he was clearly pissed off at the moment. Sanyukta has been making him wait since an hour, while he was settled on the driver's seat of their new BMW, a wedding gift by both their in-laws.

"Haa bas aa gayi, 5 mins please!" shouted Sanyukta, as she rushed downstairs, grabbed the picnic bag she had packed for the beach and rushes towards the gate. She locked the whole palace-like-house and sat on the passenger seat.

"Chalo na ab? What are you waiting for?" She said, as she was fidgeting with the bag and placed it on the back seat.

__

She came running through the door in a hurry and her moderate heels clicking the ground made fierce voices. She never fails to amaze me. The way she was combing her hair with her fingers while another hand was holding the picnic bag for beach essentials, she looked so cute and child like.

"Chalo na ab? What are you waiting for?" She said, bringing me out of the trance, as she was busy checking things from the bag and settled it on the back seat.

We drove through the ISKCON Temple on Juhu-Tara Road (google it), we first went in and prayed for a while. It was a very serene moment. The way the pandits were serving us the offerings and blessing us with utmost good vibes, it was bliss. You can never find such peace anywhere else, than Lord Krishna's Temple. We prayed for our budding relationship and marriage.

We then finally parked our car near the Ramada Hotel's back area. We got down and Randhir held my hand while another of his hand held the bag. We walked through the sand to go to the main beach, as we settled on leaving our Flip-flops in the car.

The soothing sand on the base, touched my feet and calmed all my nerves. It was pure heaven. The whole beach was crowded as it is weekend, the children playing with sand and making sand castles, some were running around, a few couples walking hand in hand towards the beach waves, the monkey charmer was presenting his skills along with two monkeys, the stalls were crowded with people, the aroma of ghee (clarified butter) numbed my senses and the most perfect situation is, my Randhir is here with me, holding my hands. He guides our way to a vacant area on the beach, we spread the sheets on the sand, let out a sigh and sat together.

It's really good to spend some time out, after the daily duties we perform. A break from everything is very soothing, I tell you.

Randhir was looking at the kids playing with sand and running after each other. He looked so much at peace, I guess he never took a break from his work life, and this is his first time chilling around the beach.

"Come na Randhir, lets go. I want to feel the beach waves on my feet!" I exclaimed as I stood up, rubbing my hands to let off the dust.

__

The surrounding of the beach were very soothing. And I wonder, how could I never come here? This is pure heaven on earth. The children playing around, the couples spending time playing with the beach waves, as they come and go, fascinating people around, the way...

"Come on na Randhir, lets go. I want to feel the beach waves on my feet!" she excited exclaimed while standing up in the process.

We both walked to the mouth of the beach, where the water damped the sand.

__

As soon as the beach waves touched my feet, the feeling was explicitly beautiful. MY GOD. The water sent chills down my spine as Randhir helped me to get used to it, as we slashed water on each other. I looked at Randhir, as he too was fascinated by the positive vibes, the beach waves brought to our souls. The way he looked so happy and carefree......

My thoughts were interrupted by, "Hey Sanyukta, what are you doing here?" I turned around as I heard a familiar male voice behind my back.

I was SURPRISED. Though surprised is the understatement of what I am feeling right now.

I know you want to kill me now, but spare me please. The cliff-hanger was the demand of this chapter. ;)

Alright, have a good day peeps.

Signing off,

Karishma.
