Rey : Taani, please don't leave me alone. I'll die without you. Please. You are my soul. You are my heart. You are my breath. You are my heartbeat. You are my everything. I can't live without you. Taani You can't do this to me. How will I leave without you? How will we live without you? We will die Taani. How dare you leave your Rey? Just come back if you ever loved me. Taani. Taani...
She never came back. She left him forever. She left her Rey. She never wanted to. She had not been left with other option. She had to leave him. She was forced to leave her love.
4 years later...
Rey was sleeping on a bed with Tia. She had hugged him as he was her pillow. She was clinging to him as he was the only person she trusted. She was hugging him like her life depended on that hug. Tia woke up.
Tia : Prince...wake up its late.
Rey : Tia let me sleep. I slept late last night. You go get ready and then I'll drop you today.
Tia : Prince, get up. We have holiday today. We had planned to go out and enjoy ourselves today, right? Prince, how can you forget about our plan? You don't love me, right?
Rey : Sweetheart, please never say that. I love you more than anything in this world. You are my most special sweetie.
Tia : Really, if you love me, how could you forget about US and OUR trip?
Rey : You know you are just like Taani.
Tia : Go to your Taani. Don't ever talk to me.
Rey : Tia, sorry naa baby. Forgive your prince or I'll go away forever.
Tia : Prince, never say that again. I'll die without you.
Rey : Okay, this emotional talks don't suit us. Go take bath and change. We are leaving in an hour. We are going for two days and one night.
Tia : Really Prince?
Rey : Haan babe, now go and change before I change my mind.
Tia : No no.
Rey and Tia left for Lonavala and Khandala. Rey had holidays for two days and that's the reason, he was taking Tia out of town. According to Tia, Rey never gave her attention. Tia always said work was Rey first love. Rey and Tia got ready and ate breakfast cooked by Ramu kaka and left for their road trip.
After their tiring road trip, they reached Lonavala.
Tia : Prince, I'm tired. pick me up till the room.
Rey : What will people say?
Tia : You care about me or people?
Rey : You baby.
Tia : Then pick me up, my legs are paining.
Rey picked her up and she wrapped her arms around his neck. He kissed her on her cheek. She also responded with a kiss on his cheek. People around admired them.
Rey : Tia take some rest, evening we are going out.
They both slept in each others arms. Rey held her lightly yet protectively. After all, she was the only one who lit up his life after Taani left. She was the only person who made Rey live his life. Rey would have died if she was not in his life. God had blessed him with Tia and gave him a reason to live. He loved her more than anything in this world.
Both woke up at 5:00pm.
They freshened up and decided to go to Ryewood Park & Shivaji Udyan. This is an extensive garden situated in Lonavala. The garden covers a lot of ground and it is full of tall trees. There is an old Shiva temple in the park. The garden has plenty of place for children to play. They enjoyed a lot.
They went to Lonavala Lake. The scenery made Tia change her expression to awe. She was very happy today. Firstly, her Prince was with her and secondly, such a beautiful place.
They also went to Valvan Dam. It has a garden at its foot, and is a popular evening spot 2 km from the town. The Kundali River feeds into the dam's reservoir.
Finally, the last spot for the day. They went to Lohagad Fort. A robust climb of about 11.2 km from Malavali Railway Station takes you to the 'Iron Fort', once a formidable battle-station of Shivaji. The fort commands a view of the surrounding hills and hamlets. It looked pretty due to monsoon season.
The monsoon rains had made all the places prettier than usual. Rey knew Tia would love it. Tia was dancing with happiness. She jumped in his arms and started kissing him on his cheeks and he kissed her forehead. She knew he loved her but his small small ways of making her feel special was what she loved about him, her Prince.
It was night and due to rains, it was getting darker. They sat in the car and rushed to the resort. When they were near the resort, their car broke down. It started drizzling. Rey asked Tia to sit inside and he went to check the car bonnet. It started raining heavily. Tia loved rains. She came out of the car and started twirling in rain in happiness. Rey asked her to sit inside but she denied instead she asked Rey to dance with her in the rain. They both were crazily dancing on the road as if there was no tomorrow.
Rey repaired the car and they went to the resort and had their dinner. Rey fed her and she fed him. They slept on the bed in each others embrace. Rey knew he had to roam around the next day as well.
Next day...
They got up early and went to Khandala. They had to visit a lot. They ate breakfast in a restaurant. Again they started their journey.
They first went to Karla and Bhaja Cave. Karla and Bhaja Caves are historical rock cut caves, situated at a distance of 16 km from Khandala. Karla Caves are the ancient Buddhist caves. Bhaja Caves are similar to Karla Caves but are on a much smaller scale. This caves are also in Chaitya style.
After roaming around for a while, they sat their admiring the beautiful sculptures. They ate their lunch and then went to their next destination.
Their next destination was Bhushi Lake. Bhushi Lake situated in Khandala is the ideal spot for all those who wish to relax in the lap of Mother Nature. Its serene and tranquil surroundings and crystal clear water provides immense opportunities for the tourists to rest in peace.
It was a place where they could find solace. Tia was tired she placed her head in his lap and slept for a while on the green soft grass. Rey also sat there taking the support of a rock and slept for a while.
They woke up in a while. Next, they went to Tiger's Leap. It is one of the most fascinating places in this area. If someone carefully observes the valley from this point, it will appear as if a tiger is leaping into the valley.
It was already getting dark. Rey had taken a day's leave because he knew he would be tired after this trip and Tia would also require him. They went back to resort ate their dinner in their room as Tia was in no mood to go to the dining room. They slept together. They were cuddling into each other and Tia was enjoying his body heat and warmth.
Next Morning...
They woke up. They checked out from the resort and went back to Mumbai in their car. They went back in comfortable silence. Both were tired and did not plan to talk. They had their lunch in a small restaurant. Tia was pleading to eat in a dhaba but Rey denied because he thought her health would get affected by eating outside. They returned to Mumbai and their hectic schedule.
They enjoyed the rest of the day, teasing each other. They played, teased each other and finally tired Tia slept.
Rey was reading an important work related file. He was out of the office for three days. He was the owner, it was nothing like someone would scold him for not knowing the facts but he liked to be perfect. He wanted to be perfect like his Taani. He still loved her the most.
He sat their reminiscing their memories. He got a call from Swayam.
