"Make it two" Karan said.

"You are not coming?" I asked.

"No, Your son is not coming" Karan replied.

"What? Why?" I asked as I didn't know any plans that included Karthi.

"He is being invited to his friend's birthday party and a sleepover for the weekend." He said.

"Which friend? What friend? Did you talk to the parents? Is it safe?" I started asking.

"Jonas and Yes and Yes" He said.

"Damn, Then trip cancelled?" I asked.

"No, We are going." He said.

"We will be absolutely bored." I said.

"Lucky for you, I can keep both of us entertained." Karan said.

"And how do you propose that Mr.Ranawat" I asked.

"Simple, You teach me how to Kayak and I will teach you how to kiss" Karan said flirting shamelessly.

"I don't think it is a fair exchange." I said.

"Hmm...Well I can teach you how to kiss in different styles." Karan said smirking.

"Such a shameless idiot you are" I said throwing a pillow to his face.

"Arey, What is shameless about it?" He asked.

"Soooo, Make sure you pack your gear" I said trying to change the topic.

"Okay ma'am" Karan said blatantly ignoring my obvious reason to change the topic.

-----------------************------------------

"Karan, You are paddling in the wrong direction." I shouted.

"Damn, I did it again." He said.

"Karan, How is this so hard for you? This exactly like cycling" I said exasperated.

"It is easy but I am not able to grasp the direction change part." He said.

"Okay, Stop paddling, I will maneuver then you can paddle" I said.

"How do you do that? " Karan asked.

"Practice, We will make an expert out of you ." I said.

"Come on, Let's go eat, I am hungry." I said encouraging him to get up.

"Okay" He replied.

---------------------------******************-----------------------------

"Nirvana, Wake up" I heard as Karan started shaking me.

"Karan, Stop shaking me and sleep" I said pulling Duvet to my chin.

"You need to wake up" He said and started shaking me aggressively.

"Ahhh...I am going to kill you" I said as I sat up.

"Good you are awake. Take a shower, we are going hiking" Karan said.

"No thanks" I said as I fell on bed ready to go back to sleep.

"Nirvana, Just get up please. I promise it will be worth it." Karan said almost begging.

"This better be worth it Ranawat or else I will return home a widow." I threatened and went into washroom.

We started hiking. We were taking a different trail longer than the one we took before. Half way through I was already tired.

"I am already breathless. This is hard" I said.

"Not far now" Karan said encouraging me.

After 5 minutes we reached the cliff and we sat on the edge to see the sun rise. 

"This is beautiful" I said looking at the rising sun.

"Yes, it is." Karan said.

We sat there for another 15 minutes when karan looked at me.

"What?" I asked.

"Thank you for coming in to my life" He said.

I was taken aback at the serious note in his tone and honesty in his eyes. But I was happy he said that because that is exactly what I was feeling.

"Thank you for making me truly happy" I said looking in to his eyes.

Karan leaned towards me and kissed my lips. He moved his lips against mine and encouraged me to do the same.

And that is how Ladies and Gentlemen we kissed under the rising sun.
