"Will you move in with me as my fiance?", he asked.
"Huh?", Shehnaaz was is a daze. What was he implying?
"Uhhh...ummmm...I mean, Will you marry me?", he asked.
"Huh?", Shehnaaz asked again, not able to register what was happening. Is she hearing him correctly?
"Will you marry me?", Sidharth asked again.
The very next moment, Shehnaaz got up from the bench she was sitting on while Sidharth kept on sitting on his knees, well now in a proposing situation,sitting on his one knee in front of her.
Shehnaaz quickly pinched Sidharth and he screamed, "Ahhh, kya kar ri hai?".
Shehnaaz without answering him, pinched herself, "Ouch!", she screamed and then rubbed her arm.
Sidharth then took a small box from his pocket and opened it in front of her.
"So you are not lying? I mean you are not joking?", Shehnaaz said, still in a daze.
"Of course I am not. Who jokes about a marriage?", Sidharth asked.
"By marriage you mean, shaadi?", she asked, trying to make sense of the words that she just said. What was she even saying?
"Han, Shehnaaz! I mean shaadi!", Sidharth said.
Shehnaaz's POV
Ye subha subha high to ni hai. Bol kya rha hai ye. Its not that I don't want to marry him, I do, I really do. But he has just realised that he loves me, and although I have known it for years, par use to abhi 2 mahine pehle hi realise hua hai.
What if after some days, he thinks it's a bad idea. What if, after some days he thinks that it was too early to get engaged?
I really want to say yes, but would it be impulsive? Is he taking this decision impulsively?
I mean, I just wanted him to ask me out, not propose me. Isne ye forcefully to ni kiya?
I mean I just wanted him to ask me to be his girlfriend, the old fashioned way. I never said that I want him to propose me.
Ye mere pressure mein aake to nhi kar ra kuch? Isne galat to ni samajh liya?
Nhi nhi, meine saaf saaf bola tha ki, ask out maare pehle. I never used the word proposal, or did i?
Shehnaaz jaldi jaldi yaad kar ki tune kya bola tha?
Han, ask out hi bola tha meine!
Personal Bhagwaan ji, I really need you. Sidharth has proposed me, what should I say.
I just desperately want to say yes, but I never would want him to regret his this decision.
Usne agar kabhi life mein aage Jaake, iss decision ko regret kiya, I will never be able to take it.
What if, after some time he feels that we are not compatible and he wants to break it off?
God, there are so many negative 'what ifs'.
There is just one positive 'what if' too.
(Smiling to herself nervously)
And that is, what if it all works out?
Although, I really don't know the probability of this all working out but it might actually do work out.
We have been best friends for so long and we have fought so many times. Aur hum humesha solve kar lete hain.
Compatiblity won't be an issue, obviously we are compatible warna friends thodi hote.
Living together with Sidharth would be so great! Hum dono sath rahenge, I will always sleep in his arms, Always!
We will do things like normal couples. Hum har din subha breakfast banayenge aur fir ek sath khayenge.
We will have diners together. If one would be late, the second would be up waiting for the other one.
Wo late aayega, aur mein uske liye door kholungi. Fir mein use bolungi ki wo change karne jaye and till then I will lay out the table for both of us.
After a whole hectic day, we would find solace in each other's arms.
After the diner, I would make coffee for both of us. Then we will sit in the balcony and have it together.
I will caress his forehead while he will lay on my lap.
Wo aise hi meri god mein leta leta so jaega and I won't wake him up thinking that he might be too tired to get up.
Then after sometime he would wake up and see that he had fallen asleep on my lap, aur mein bhi so chuki houngi.
Fir wo mujhe utha ke bed pe sula dega. Then he will come and sleep beside me with his arms wrapped around me.
It would be beautiful with your best friend cum the love of your life cum your fiance.
It will work out, it has to!
Sidharth's POV
kya meine koi galti kardi? Kahin jaldi to ni puch liya? I should have waited more? Its just been 2 months since we both have confessed to each other.
Maybe kaafi jaldi puch liya. Par yar ye to itne saalon se mujhe pyaar karti hai, uske liye jaldi thodi na hai.
Infact I have been too late, that's why I thought that it would be the best time to do so.
Although, meine do mahine pehle hi realise kiya hai, but its the most real thing of my life, my entire life.
I have never felt something that is so real and yet seems so unreal.
I have never felt something which us ordinary, yet extraordinary.
It's too easy but it's difficult too.
Is she actually thinking whether she is going to say yes or not?
Yar meine jaldi kardi kya propose karne mein? Par dating is just too ordinary and small in front of what we share.
And at the same time,even Shehnaaz is right in wanting to know the status of our relationship. She is also right in wanting to give a name it to.
But that name couldn't have been just 'dating', so it had to be an engagement.
This is the one decision that I am never going to regret in my life.
Getting engaged to the love if my life, that too during sunset, in the lake in Italy.
Its just so beautiful. She is just so beautiful. Everything around here is beautiful.
I couldn't have thought of a better place to propose to her than this.
But why is she taking so much time, she shouldn't take so much time.
Naa to nhi bolegi na, yar nhi nhi, naa kyun bolegi. She would obviously say yes. There's no reason to say no.
Then why the hell is she not answering?
Ek to mere knees mein bhi pain ho ra hai neeche baith baith ke.
Oh, for God's sake Sidharth. Yahaan pe itni important answer ka wait ho ra hai and you are thinking about your knees! Like seriously?
Par langda fiance Shehnaaz ko pasand thodi aayega to thodi der khada ho jata hun.
Yar par pehle kissi ko dekha hai proposal ke beech ghutno se uthte huye?
Why did I even decide to do this on one knee?
Ek kaam karta hun thodi der ke lie knee change kar leta hun!
Par ye to mujhe hi dekh ri hai. Agar knee change ki ja to insult ho jaegi gandi wali.
Yar yes bol de Shehnaaz please baby!
Haan bol de! By God bohot khush rakhunga!
It would be so great to live together.
Hum dono mein se jo bhi late aayega, dusra uske lie der raat tak wait karega.
Yan fir ho sakta hai wait karte karte couch pe hi so jayen.
(He chuckled thinking about it!)
Fir I or she will lay the food on the table and eat it together, no matter how much late one of us gets. We will have diner together.
Fir raat ko diner ke baad, I would take her out on a long drive, just like old times.
Fir Shehnaaz zidd karegi ki usse ice cream chahiye. Ab aadhi raat ko hum puri city mein ghumenge uske liye ice cream dhundhne ko.
Fir waapaas aate aate wo car mein hi so jaegi and I won't wake her up.
I would unbuckle her seat belt and take her in my arms and then lock the door.
I will open her shoes and make her lay on the bed. I will then wrap my arms around her and we will sleep.
We will sleep together every night and she will always with me.
It's going to work out and I know it in my heart!
"No!", Shehnaaz said...
Why did Shehnaaz deny? Will Sidharth be able to make her say yes? Will Shehnaaz accept the proposal? Even after thinking everything will work out, why did Shehnaaz deny his proposal? Will she yes...
Pleas VOTE and COMMENT to motivate me. Keep showering your love.
I love you all and you are my lovers😂❤️
