Meera's eyes filled with happy tears. She never expected that he will give such a big surprise. She opened the jewellery box and found a Mangalsutra(wedding chain) and metti (toe ring) inside the box.
She took that in her hand and her heart was overwhelmed with happiness and her eyes searched for him. She closed the box and ran in the direction where he went. She searched for him but couldn't find him anywhere. She searched him and finally found him standing there starring at the sunset. She didn't waste even a single second, ran towards him and hugged him from behind. The hug was very tight and her freely flowing tears wet his shirt.
He slowly turned towards her without breaking the hug and when he completely turned towards her, he hugged her close to his heart. His mood lightened and happiness bloomed inside him. "I'm sorry for not listening your words" she sniveled and snuggled more into him.
"Please don't cry Meera. I don't want to see you in tears" he said by patting her back. "Are you angry with me?" She asked without looking at him. "Why should I?" He asked. "I didn't listen your words and hurt by my actions" she said sadly. "No Meera. I'm the one who hurt you more. Will you forgive me?" He asked by looking into her eyes. "Forgiven" she said with a smile.
"But how you came to know about that Pallavi's plan?" She asked in confused tone. "Aarav helped me in that" he replied. "Aarav! He is my friend" she said with excitement. "Yes and he is the one who informed me about their plans" he said with smile. "Do uncle and aunty know about this?" She asked sadly. "Yeah, two weeks ago I revealed the truth and they were shocked to know their true identity. My mom couldn't tolerate their betrayal" he said sadly.
"Don't worry. Atleast now they identified their true colour right. After this they will be happy" she said with smile. He too nodded with a beautiful smile.
"But why she planned to kill me? We didn't confess our love and how she learnt about it? How Aarav came to know about this and why he directly contacted you?" She listed several questions without giving a gap. He took a deep breath and sat on the sand by resting his cheeks by his palm. "What happened Krishna?" She asked worriedly. "We are talking after long time that too I proposed you for the first time. You didn't answered for my proposal but you're continuously asking all those worthless questions. I'm thinking about our future. How unromantic!" He said sadly.
"I just asked my doubt and what you're expecting me to do?" She asked crossing her arms. "You don't know what you should do, right. That's what I said. How unromantic my future was!! If Pallavi was in your place, she might have done all naughty things. How sweet it would be" he said by acting like imagining the scene. That's it, she lost her cool and searched something.
"What are you searching?" He asked, she took a big stone in her hand, he guessed what is going to happen next and started running from that place. "I won't leave you today. You're going to die in my hands" she said by chasing him.
He ran fast and finally stopped near a tree. She too reached him and raised her hand to hit him. He caught her hand delicately and she dropped the stone once he touched her hand. Before she could withdraw her mind from its far places, his arms were around her waist with their eyes locked.
She stood there like a statue. He bent down, his lips against her cheek, brushing it lightly and still that light touch sent shivers through her nerves, shivers that made her whole body tremble. He slowly reached her ears and whispered "I love you" which made her more nervous and her heart beat multiplied thousand times.
He looked at her face. "Meera look at me" he said. She opened her eyes to look those beautiful black eyes. "Will you be with me forever?" He asked like a kid. "I'll. I'll be with you forever. I'll be your side in your every success and failure. I'll be there for you to take care of you. I'll be there to shower my unconditional love which I saved for you all these days" she replied from her heart. He heard the words what he wanna hear for long days. He pulled her more close like her lips was just an inch away from his. "Then marry me?" He said like his lips brushing her's.
She nodded and he took it as her acceptance, without a delay he slammed his lips on her. He kissed her gently. She smiled once she felt his lips against her and accepted it by encircling her arms around his neck. The kiss was slow and passionate, later it grows deeper.
He kissed her with all his love and desire. It shows how much he missed her all these days. She felt like the whole world have turned upside down! The others disappeared and there she was alone with him. She kissed him back, he smiled and when he felt she is struggling for breath, he broke the kiss.
She blushed and hidden her face in his chest. At that moment, he felt how heaven would really be. Nothing feels better than when you love someone with your whole heart and soul and they love you back even more. He hugged her more tight feeling the bliss moment.
Sunset and blooming flowers made that environment more romantic. They was in that position for a long time and they came to their sense once rain drop hit their face. They both opened their eyes and felt rain drops on them. The rain started to drizzle.
"Hey! Rain in this season is really surprising" he said looking at her. "Yes" she said happily enjoying the drizzling rain. "You love rain, right. Once you told me" he said with amusement. She nodded her head like a small kid getting excited seeing a chocolate. "You are looking so cute" he said by pinching her nose. "You too" she said by squeezing his cheeks. He pecked her lips and they both started enjoying the rain. Slowly the drizzles changed into a big rain. The rain smell made them felt heavenly.
He shook the branches of the tree and rain water from the tree sprinkled on her. She jumped in excitement and enjoyed the heavenly feeling. He caught her hand and she happily prisoned in his arms. He took her in his hand, she rested her palms on his shoulder, raised her head, closing her eyes, she kissed the rain drops falling directly on her face. No rain ever seemed her so romantic as of today.
They was like that for a long time and finally the rain slower down and blessed the beautiful couple. He slowly dropped her down and kissed her forehead and sat on his knees. "Meera, now I promise you. I'll be there for you in every situation and I won't leave you alone even a second. You'll be my first priority and I'll be there for you to take care of you in every situation. Will you marry me?" He asked holding her hand.
She too kneeled down to his level, took his hand in her hand and replied "I will". "Then, you should accept this gift" he said by presenting a ring. She accepted it happily. When he made her wear the ring, he felt like she will be his possession forever and kissed her forehead. He rested his forehead on her like their nose touching each other.
