Part-8
Ram: Priya if you don't mind, shall we take a stroll along the beach side.
Priya nodded her head and both started walking together in comfortable silence.
While walking, Ram held Priya' s hand with little hesitance as he don't know her reaction, understanding his hesitance which only reflected his thoughts of not making her uncomfortable.
Priya entwined their hands which immediately made ram to give his goofy smile.
They started walking in a comfortable silence by enjoying the breeze with eachother's company.
They decided to sit in the beach for some time as the starry night with soft breeze along with crashing waves to top it with they are alone and together seemed nothing less than a heaven for them. It felt so soothing to be there.
Before they can sit Ram took her to nearby shops to buy some eatables as Priya didn't had her dinner and only had snacks for lunch without any proper meals.
He bought waffles, milk, chocolate chip cookies, hot soup, fruit and veg salads, Priya tried to refuse icecream but he never listened to her bought some rolled icecreams.After purchasing they both got settled and started sharing their food.
Ram: you know what, eating icecream at night gives a unique happiness.
Saying so he started eating the icecream relishing it like a messy kid and to her surprise she found that so cute and endearing. She can see him really enjoying it and suddenly she felt like having a bite from him but she sat there simply admiring him. Then Out of the blue, her husband fed her the icecream he was eating like he listened her thoughts. One bite,she can see why he was enjoying it, it was so fresh and tasty, the customisation he had asked to add took the icecream to a whole new level. She must admit her husband have a amazing and rich taste when it comes to food. She smiled shaking her head seeing her husband who is busy eating and feeding her in between.
After finishing icecream Priya made him finish some salads along with some soup.
While munching her food Priya started asking the reason behind that smile in one specific picture with his mother that they saw on his birthday video.
Ram started explaining her what happened back then and how naughty he was. Like this they started conversing with eachother. Both shared their childhood stories, their likes and dislikes casually and their conversation seemed like an endless one. In between ram made her wear his jacket as she started feeling cold.
They continued their conversation without a break and came back to the real world by the ring of a nearby temple bell.
They were surprised seeing the time as it was 5 in the morning.
They sheepishly smiled seeing eachother, thinking they are the two person who can't stand eachother straight for 5 minutes but now here spending whole night chatting is a big thing.
From this night conversation they got to see the glimpse of real Ram and Priya without a facade. They did found it easy to share everything with eachother.
They both decided to get back to their home.
While waiting for the auto, ram saw a small temple and asked Priya to come.
The temple was basically empty as it was early morning, so they just went in to thank the god for his blessings.
Ram: thank you God, for making my life peaceful by sending priya in my life and also thank you so much for blessing me with my loved ones, bless them with all the happiness.
Priya: thank you for making him happy. Please bless him only with the happiness. Give him all the good things that he deserves.
Priya opened her eyes to see ram picking some kumkum from the thali kept there. He came back and showed his palms to Priya which had Kumkum in it. Ram had already applied thilak on his forehead so she extended her hand to take some kumkum when ram stopped her from taking and asked May I?
Priya nodded looking into his eyes. Ram applied a small pinch of kumkum on her forehead and smiled.
After moving out of the temple,
Ram: Priya if you don't mind shall we take a selfie
Priya nodded smiling seeing his excitement.
Ram took out his phone and started taking a photo. Ram side hugged her before clicking the photo which made Priya to face him. It was cute candid pic with Ram facing camera and Priya facing him. He smiled seeing that picture then again asked her to pose for new one and told her to face the camera this time.
Priya gave him a dirty look for his teasing and did as she was asked to.
After clicking some photos, both started seeing how it turned out. That's when ram noticed his blazer in Priya's hand. She had removed it and now keeping it with her like a prized possession without returning it to him. He smiled thinking she did it so naturally, he loved the feeling of his wife carrying his blazer. It felt like an intimate gesture to him as it looked like he belonged to her.
Both smiled looking at each other and started walking together with the happiness of opening new chapter in their life.
Later both entered Kapoor mansion to see the hustle bustle going on for shubham's birthday party. Every servent was busy working.
No one from their family were awake, so both Mr and Mrs. Kapoor silently went to their room to get a brief nap.
After getting freshen up, they both came down to have their breakfast and saw mama, mami, shubham ,nandhini having their breakfast.
They both sat down together while Priya started serving for ram first. Then she started having her breakfast.
Nandhini: Ram please arrange some nice caterer's for tomorrow's party. Har dish hona chahiye. Everything should be perfect in shubham's birthday.
Ram: ok mom. I will arrange it as per your wish.
He turned to see Priya who was looking at him with little worry in her eyes as nandhini didn't even ask where they were for the past 2 days even for a namesake. But he assured her through his eyes that he is okey.she gave a small smile in reply
Ram: start eating Priya , it's getting late for us.Saying so he made her to eat.
Both completed their breakfast and excused themselves from the table not that they cared of. It's just that Mr and Mrs. Kapoor are decent peoples.
Ram and Priya both wished each other a good day and went ahead with their work.
They returned from their work, had their dinner little early and slept as both of them were hell tired.
