But within a second her expression changed. A fear occupied her face, those happy tears turned into tears of pain. She didn't utter a word and was about to move from that place. He caught her hand, pulled her towards him and made her sit closer to him. She didn't protest but her tears too flowed continuously. He took her hand in his and asked her to look into his eyes. She raised her eyes to meet his black orbs.

"I know you love me more than I love you but why are you trying to hide it from me?" He asked with pain. "Yes I love you, after all those pain, I still love you. It's always been you. It was you yesterday, it is you today and it will be you tomorrow and forever. But what about you? One day you hate me, next day you showered love, next day you yourself broken my heart into million pieces. Now again you are saying that you love me and tomorrow what will be your mindset?" She asked the question which haunted her mind all these days by looking into his eyes directly.

"Meera, don't you trust me?" His voice was broken. "Yes, I trusted you. I trusted you more than others. I believed you more than my own self. But how can I take this proposal once after witnessing your engagement that too with your wholehearted acceptance" she asked with tears. "Everything was a drama" he said without looking her face. "What!!?" She asked in unbelievable tone. He said everything that happened. For a moment she felt happy that he didn't accept to marry another girl but next second she felt sad that he didn't cared about her too.

"You know right, How much I loved you. Then why didn't you tell those things before that party. You never cared about me. What would you have done if I commited suicide once you decided to marry someone else. And you know what, that is the truth. I was about to end my life once I felt that you left my life permanently" he cut off her. "What? Did you attempted suicide?" he asked with a great shock. "Yes, but before that my mom saved me. No one knows about this even my mom, her words only stopped me from that decision" he didn't let her complete her words and hugged her tight.

"Are you mad? I done everything to save you. But you're saying that you tried to leave me permanently. I'm sorry for whatever I did" he said with tears tightening his grip like she is his precious possession. "If you truly cared, you should have told this before you implementing that plan. But you insulted me in front of her by giving that gift" she said in crying tone. Suddenly he remembered something and slowly he came out of the hug.

"Wait" he left the place leaving her alone. Again she was confused by his behavior. She stood there waiting for him. He reached the her in few minutes carrying a gift parcel in his hand. She looked him confusingly. "If you opened this then you might not thought that I will marry someone else. But you left the place throwing this away" he said sadly. "How can I take this when she utter those hurtful words" she asked with tears.

"It's my mistake not revealing the truth but there is a reason behind it Meera. Please understand" he said in pleading tone. "Oh, those reasons are more valuable than my life, right" she asked in defeated tone. "Stop it Meera, I did all these to save your life. That Pallavi and her dad planned to kill you to execute their plan. To divert their mind, I acted like we don't love each other and we are just friends. To make her believe I acted like I wholeheartedly accepted for that marriage. Even my parents don't know about that. Now please don't repeat those words Meera. You're my first priority and I will do anything to keep you safe" he said looking at her eyes.

"I know still you don't believe me. I'll wait until you trust me" by saying this he left the place and reached his car. Meera stood there numb. He confessed his love but she couldn't celebrate her happiness. She thought about everything happened on that day. She thought about the surprise he gave her and that day when she saw his unconditional love in his eyes. On that day when he introduced Pallavi his eyes conveyed something which she failed to notice, now everything flashed in her mind. She realized everything. She found that gift parcel.

She took that in her hand and slowly unwrapped the gift. She found a jewellery box. "What that Pallavi said is true. He bought this jewellery and thought it is the valuable gift but I never loved these jewels. What I want is your love for my entire life. Can't you understand this" she said by starring the box without opening it.

She went to the car and looked at him. He rested his head on the seat and closed his eyes. His face indicated his grief. Her heart ached to see his condition. "Krishna" he opened his eyes immediately. He was waiting all these years to hear his name from her and finally she fulfilled his wish. "I understood everything you said but I can't accept this gift" she said without looking his eyes.

"Did you opened that box?" He asked. "No. By seeing this box, I found it is jewellery and I don't want any jewels from you. If I accept this then that Pallavi's words would be true" she was about to say something. "Stop it. Won't you believe me atleast now Meera" he asked in broken voice. She looked him with confusion. He got down from car and left the place.

She looked at the gift box and the direction he left
