DESTINED

35.

Turning her around I held her waist, pulling her closer

"Andhere Daraayein to jaa kar falak pe

Chaand sajaa denge hum"

I sang, holding her waist and pulling her closer, our bodies moving in perfect harmony.

"Chhaaye udaasi lateefe suna kar

Tujh ko hansa denge hum

Hanste hansaate yoon hi gungunaate

Chal denge chaar kadam"

As we danced, laughter filled the air, our eyes reflecting pure joy.

"Tumsa mile jo koi rehguzar

Duniya se kaun Darey

Chaar kadam kya saari umar

Chal dungi saath tere"

she sang, her gaze filled with affection as she looked at me.

I smiled

"Gosh, kanna, your eyes are so captivating. I can gaze into them for my whole life" I whispered, planting a tender kiss on her forehead.

(In Telugu: "Kanna" can be a term of endearment, often used to address someone affectionately. I found it cute so I thought to use it😭 )

"Bin kuch kahe, bin kuch sune

Haathon mein haath liye

Chaar kadam bas chaar kadam

Chal do na saath merey.."

As the song drew to a close, I held her hand and twirled her around, reveling in her laughter.

Unable to contain anymore I held neck and pulled her for a kiss

Her soft lips touching mine, sending me the euphoric feeling.

As we kissed each other, she wrapped her arms around my neck

While I tightened my hold on her waist lifting her up a little

She jumped on me circling her legs around me

We kissed, kissed with so much love

Breaking away for a moment to catch our breath, I gazed at her, feeling overwhelmed with love.

"Happy birthday, my love," I whispered, pressing another kiss to her forehead.

She opened her eyes and glanced at the clock—it was exactly midnight.

"Oh my god, I almost forgot," she exclaimed, pulling me into a tight hug.

"And thank you!"

"You're always welcome," I replied with a laugh as we basked in the warmth of our embrace.
