His Queen

The marriage proposal

Araavi~

"Aru, kyu tension mei marr rahi hai?" Advishtha said, making me come out of my dreamland.

As I looked at her face, tension and concern showing on her face for me.

I shook my head in a no to not make her panic for me.

She sighed, "see, I know how you're feeling right now, so please I beg you, tell me what's going on in that little mind of yours!" She said, in a irritated yet concerned voice.

I gulped, while panic rushed inside me, "I don't know yar, mujhe accha bhi lg raha hai aur dar bhi lg raha hai!" I confessed while breathing heavily.

She smiled, "aru, it's normal yar, sabke saath hota hai tere saath bhi ho rha hai!" She said rubbing my arm, making me ease my stress.

While I nod, not wanting to make her more worried.

After talking some more, she left my cabin as she had a surgery to do.

Advishtha is my best friend since high school. We joined the same medical college and were assigned in medipulse hospital in jodhpur itself as interns and now we are the most well known doctors among people. And I cannot feel more proud about it.

As Advishtha left I again drowned myself in my pool of thoughts.

Confused about what happened? I'll tell you👍

Flashback of morning:

I was sleeping peacefully until my peace broke as I heard continous yet soft banging on my door.

I got up from the bed, rubbing my eyes. I walked towards the door, yawning and i opened the door there stood my parents and without wasting any more minute they barged inside my room.

"What is happening guys?" I sang as confusion maked it's way towards my forehead in the form of wrinkles.

Mumma gulped, while looking at me. After some minutes of silent baba decided to break it. And the next words leaving his mouth were surreal to my ears.

"A marriage proposal has come for you!"

My eyes widened with shock.

"What?" I screamed on the top of my lungs making both of them flinch.

"With whom? And how? And you guys didn't even asked me!" I said all at once. They both sighed looking at each other.

"Come here and sit down!" Mumma calmly said pointing towards the couch placed in my room besides the bed.

As I sat down on the couch they both too sat on the bed facing me.

"Beth gyi, abh?" I asked, arching an eyebrow up, feeling impatient.

"Dekh, pehli baat ki hume ladke walo ki side se sirf proposal aya hai, aur humne abhi iss rishte ke liye han nahi bola hai!" Mumma said making me feel ease.

"And we will not say yes until you wish for the same, so don't worry okay?" Papa said as I nod at their words.

As I felt a little relaxed, I took the glass of water, which was placed on the table besides me and started drinking it.

While I was drinking, mumma continued her words, "and about the proposal...." She said, hesitating.

"Speak up na mumma, itna bol diya abh ladke ka naam lene mei kaisa hich-kichana." I said, before placing my lips with the glass of water as I drank it, un-bothered by her easyness.
