My Christmas Angel

I couldn't believe it; I didn't want to believe it. It all happened so fast…

Flashback

We were walking through the park and she went in front of me, she was dancing in the middle of the park, while the snow fell.

"Armaan, come on, it's really fun!" Riddhima exclaimed.

"Aw come on Ridz, we got to go, it's Christmas eve, and I still have to wrap my presents for Atul, Anjali, Rahul, Muskaan, Sapna and Amit." I answered back.

"Well come here first and then we'll go home…please?" She did her puppy face, I couldn't say no to that, so I went over and held her in my arms while the snow fell, there was no one around at this time, so it was isolated.

"Ok now can we go home, we're gonna be late, and the guys are probably gonna think something lecherous." I laughed.

"Wait I wanna dance in the snow for a bit, you go over there if you don't want to." She told me. I walked over to the bench and watched as she danced away.

As soon as I was about to say it was time to go home… I heard a gun shot, I looked over to Ridz, to make sure she was ok. She was still, very still… then she fell to the ground…

End of Flashback

Now here I am, in the hospital, and my Ridz in a hospital bed. Atul, Anjali, Rahul, Muskaan, Sapna, Amit and her parents were all waiting outside in the waiting room.

"Today at central park, Young Miss Gupta was shot. It turns out that a gang had a drive by shooting; unfortunately Miss Gupta was in the way-"

I turned off the TV.

I took Ridz's dying pale hand and held it to my heart. I couldn't believe this! I was supposed to ask her to marry me today at Christmas eve.

I cried that day; I never cried before. I leaned over and kissed Ridz's forehead, my tears falling on her perfect face.

Her eyes fluttered open…just barely.

"Ar-Armaan?" She weakly asked.

"Yeah Ridz, honey it's me, you're gonna be alright."

"Armaan, you know I'm not that nave, I know what happened; I know what's gonna happen." She laughed lightly, shaking her head.

"Please don't leave me, I love you, so much." I cried out.

"I love you too, but you and I both know I'm not going to make it, don't try and sugar coat reality."

"I'll love you forever."

"I know, and I'll love you forever, too bad I couldn't spend Christmas with you all." She spoke softly.

"Well you kinda can, you guys can come in now." I yelled through the door.

When the door opened, on the other side were all of our friends and Ridz parents, all of them holding a present, Ridz's present.

"Oh my gosh guys what's all this?" asked a now, happy Riddhima.

"We decided since you couldn't come to Christmas, Christmas was gonna come to you!" explained Atul.

"Thanks guys, for always being there, I'm never gonna forget you." Riddhima said through happy tears, and coughing slightly.

"Okay who's first?" I asked, "Um… how about the girls, Anjali?"

"Sure Armaan." She went to Ridz's side, and gave her the present; it was wrapped in a nice pink wrapping paper. Riddhima opened it and took it out, it was a little snow globe of a girl making a snow angel.

"It's beautiful di, thank you." The girls then hugged.

It went like that through everyone; everyone received a hug, even that wimp Rahul much to my displeasure.

Anjali got her a snow globe, Muskaan got her a pair of earrings that were in the shape of mistletoe, Sapna got her a new top that said 'merry freaking x-mas' on it, Amit got her a good luck necklace, her nani got her a photo book, Atul got her a Christmas picture frame, Rahul got her a sweater, Shashank got her a teddy bear, and Padma got her a stuffed Rudolph the red nosed rein deer, with a candy cane.

"Thanks guys this has been the best Christmas ever."

"Ridz I haven't given you mine yet." I spoke up.

"Okay, what did ya get me?" She smiled.

I reached into my pocket and took out to small velvet boxes, I opened the bigger one and took it out, and it was a silver bracelet with angels dangling from it. I took her wrist and put it on her.

"Oh my gosh I love it Armaan!" Riddhima said and hugged and kissed me.

"That is one of your gifts, Christmas is a time of sharing, hope and laughter, and I just want you to know you will always be our Christmas angel." I said, pouring my heart out.

"Thank you so much Armaan."

"I'm not done yet," I say, I then open the smaller box and got down on one knee, it was earlier then I planned but it seemed like the time.

"Riddhima Gupta, will you marry me?" I ask.

"I-I of course I will!" she said, through tears. "But you know, I'm not gonna make it through tomorrow, the gun shot hit my main organs, but they were able to stabilize them for a while, it's amazing I'm even conscious." She spoke softly, her eyes distant and sad.

I looked at her and said "I don't care I love you." And then kissed her.

"Awww that is so cute!" squealed Muskaan.

"I know did you see the size of that thing? It's like the size of a continent!" yelled Anjali.

"Awe my baby is engaged." said her mom.

"Dude, nice." said Rahul.

"Very good, bro." Said Amit.[Armaan and Amit r not really brothers]

"So what ya gonna do for the honey moon?" said Atul, perverted.

GLARE

 "Atul get your head out of the gutter you lech!" yelled Anjali.

They all had a good laugh, they also stayed the night, telling stories, remembering memories, telling jokes, and just laughing.

At the stroke of midnight, Riddhima Gupta died; she was loved by all and never forgotten.

3 Years Later

"Hey Armaan!" Yelled Rahul.

"What?" I yelled back.

"We're getting tired of watching you dance in the snow, it's Christmas eve and we have lives, unlike you, so lets get going!" yelled Amit.

"Go bite yourself, I do this every year since the incident, so you should be getting used to me dancing in the snow, and plus if your bored you guys can join me!" I yelled back.

I had been doing this since Ridz died 3 years ago, I had never picked up dating again, and I still was engaged to Ridz, even if she was gone.

"Leave him alone I think it's sweet what he does." Spoke Anjali.

"How is it sweet, he dances in the snow like an idiot…I don't see anything sweet about that." Rahul snorted and folded his arms stubbornly.

"Well Rahul, of course you wouldn't, because you never listened to why he did this every Christmas Eve!" scorned Muskaan.

"What was the story?" Minnie, Armaan's adopted daughter, asked.

"On the day of the incident, Ridz was dancing in the snow, and Armaan didn't want to, so he does this every year, because he thinks that maybe if he had danced with her that time she wouldn't have died." Answered Sapna.

"Well you have to give Armaan credit, he's been doing this every year." Said Atul.

Everyone nodded…

"Okay I'm done, lets go, I still have to wrap presents and stuff." I said as I walked back to the group.

"About time man, you look like a loon out there."

"Shut it Rahul." I glared and made a threatening fist.

The group got up and started walking home, I waited until they we're out of ear shot and said softly.

"Bye My Christmas Angel, I'll see you next Christmas Eve."
