Part 2

The next couple of days had gone by in a breeze. The engagement had happened…all friends were invited to witness the happy moment. Shiv and Gauri were getting closer and closer. They liked to take long walks by the beach or anything as long it was the two of them. They could be seen staring into space smiling softly. His mornings started with her name on his lips and ended with her name. His first word is her name and his last word is also her name. The first thing and last thing he sees are her dark eyes lowered with shyness and her cheeks turning a dark red…making her look absolutely stunning. He enjoyed every moment they spent together…even if it was a one second eye-lock session across the room.

As for Kripa and Angad…they were going crazy about the other. They spent every moment together. In the small amount of time they have gotten to know one another they felt as if they have known the other for all their lives. Kripa could always be seen talking to Tannu smiling about Angad and her relationship. As for Angad, he always told his brothers all the good things about his lady love. They loved to go to the beach and sing songs together…romantic songs of course. They were like Gauri and Shiv…they always thought about the other in their dreams and awake moments. But the two sisters were unknown to the situation of their youngest sister. The couples were so engrossed in each other that they didn't notice the envious gazes of Tannu as she silently watched the two loving couples.

As for Tannu and Zaib…their relationship was only as two people being forced to marry one another. Tannu loved Zaib with all her heart…but her feelings weren't returned. He belonged to someone else already…to his girlfriend Mishti. On the engagement day Zaib had left his phone on his chair and someone was calling him. Tannu had picked up the phone and heard a lady's voice talking about how much she missed him and loved him. Tannu was shocked…she felt her heart break. She stood in the room as Zaib came and snatched the phone away from her. He had stared at her with an angry gaze…frightening the poor girl to death. She was now scared to even look at him without remembering his angry blazing golden eyes. Nobody had seen them thankfully and she never got the guts to tell her sisters. She didn't know that the girl was his ex and she stalked him…she thought he still liked Mishti. How was she to know that he was angry about Mishti's call and not at her? She didn't even know that he was falling for her. She now spent her time deeply in thought and alone as her sisters were busy with her jijus.

She was now standing on the terrace lost in her thoughts. She was unaware of Zaib watching her silently from distance. He watched silently as tears filled her eyes and fell down her creamy cheeks. Her hand rose to wipe the tear away. She looked at the moon shining brightly down at the earth. She opened her mouth to speak and said to the moon, "Why? Why did I fall in love with a guy who belonged to someone else? I didn't even know him 1 week ago and was happy just dreaming about him and me together. But now that im going to be with him for all my life…im scared of him. Scared of the guy that rules my dreams and who my sisters tease me about. Just hearing his name makes me shy and lost in my world. His voice gives me goose bumps and makes me tremble with unknown emotion. His eyes fascinate me…I could gaze into them for hours even days without blinking. My ears…they yearn to hear his deep husky voice just once even for a second…my eyes they search the room for his. My heart yearns to be held by him. My dreams are filled with him…images of us together…me holding a baby with him or just me and him dancing to soft romantic music together. Maine kyon pyar kiya? Agar mujhe pata hota ki pyar mein aisa bhi hota hai toh phir main kabhi bhi pyar na karti…kabhi nahin.  

Her thoughts and talk to the moon are interrupted by her mom yelling at her to come downstairs. Today was the mehndi rasam. She goes downstairs and sits on the bed thing and gets her hands done. It looked really beautiful and had Zaib in the middle in fancy writing. Her mom had Zaib come and search for his name in her hands. It took him total of three seconds to find it and now he had to find hers. It took him five seconds this time…her name was attached to his by the A in his name. His name went across her hand and hers came down making a cross. His touch sent shivers down her back and he could feel her hands tremble in his. The ladies left them alone…she got nervous and scared. Her hair which was in a bun had her bangs falling in her eye…annoying her. She tried to blow at it but it didn't do anything. He took her bangs and pulled them behind her ear…his cold hand touching her warm face making her gasp and look up straight in his eyes. His eyes gazed passionately into hers and they expressed his love.

Zaib- Im sorry Tannu.

T- Sorry for what Zaib?

Z- Sorry for scaring you at the engagement party…I wasn't mad at you but at Mishti she's my ex and really annoying. She wanted me for my money and when I dumped her she got mad and now is always stalking me.

T- Oh so your not…

Z- Not what?

T- Umm nothing never mind

Z- No im not

T- Not what?

Z- Not in love with her…but I do love someone

Tannu was relieved and hurt. Zaib saw this in her eyes and told her the 'big secret'.

Z- Im in love with……………you.

She gasped and blushed looking into his eyes. She lowered her gaze and got up and left for the bathroom to wash the mehndi off as it was now dry. She tried to turn the faucet on but couldn't and was really annoyed…just then Zaib came and turned it on for her. He took her hands and started washing the henna away softly and slowly. She looked in the mirror and saw the picture of her and him. He was behind her holding her in a way with his arms around her washing the hands. The picture looked just perfect and made her smile. Soon he was done and she was still lost in her thoughts. He looked at her…studying her every detail. She fit into his arms perfectly as if made specially to be held by his arms. Her face was cute and she was really beautiful. Her eyes were innocent and child-like. She looked up at that moment and her eyes once again met his. He leaned his head on her shoulder still gazing at her through the mirror and kissed her neck. She blushed and ran out the room smiling. The rest of the night went by as everyone danced and had fun. The days went by fast and soon it was the day of the wedding.
