OS ..My Valentine forever

'Good morning,Mrs.Raghav Singhania!',said that deep voice.'good morning to you too,my dear husband,'said kalpi as she sat up and placed a quick peck on his lips.

'Kya baat hai!,mrs.raghav is very bold and forthcoming,not like Ms.Kalpi Jadhav,mocked Raghav.

Of course she is bold,because she is secure in her husband's love.Kalpi Jadhav had too much weight on her shoulders,not to mention that khadoos boss who blew hot and cold.By the way why were you staring at me when I was asleep?

Just trying to make sure that it is a reality and not a dream from which I will wake up.

Kalpi laughed,'Of course it is a dream...a dream from which we will never awaken,a dream that is filled with us,our love ,our joy and our optimism.'

Raghav stared on adoringly.She never failed to surprise him.How much he had tried to distance himself ,but he had failed...and wasn't he glad to be a loser only this one time.After that night in the jungle,they had developed n emotional connect,could read each other' s mind and gradually it had blossomed into love on Kalp's part.Once she had expressed her love,she had not held back.She had healed him with her love and her faith in their love.After a long time,he had come to know happiness and a certain peace.

As kalpi watched the play of emotions on his countenance,she shook her head fondly.The great Raghav,such an akdoo boss,a perfectionist,but a child at heart...stubborn and winsome,fighting his fears silently till she had taken over his battles for him.It was this child to whom she had been drawn to...oh of course,not to forget the raw magnetism of the man,she had experienced ,when she had hugged him in the jungle.Kalpi blushed.Even now,despite being his wife,that memory evoked a wonderful feeling in her.

As raghav lay his head on her lap and she gently ruffled his hair and occasionally pecked his cheeks,Kalpi was convinced that she had made the right decision.It was a tough one ,but she had done right...

Life had been rosy ever since they had told each other of their love.But they had had to keep it a secret as Kalpi wanted time to concentrate on her mother's dream.She had got her promotion and to give him credit,Raghav had never shown any favouritism.She liked him even more for that.strictly professional at office and ,outside,he had transformed from the reticent to the demonstrative lover,as he grew more and more confident in her.She had given him unconditional and unquestioning love and he had appreciated it.None had ever shown him such love,cared so for him.On her part,kalpi had never received love in such full measure or undivided attention.But this balance had been disturbed byPakhi .She had told Kamala of her love for Raghav.as usual,Kamala had told Kalpi to back out.Kalpi had been torn between the two.Should she listen to her mother?When she had voice this to Raghav,he had withdrawn into the shell.Shades of the old Raghav raised its ugly head.He became even more khadoos and distanced himself from her.Kalpi knew that he felt she had broken his trust .She had been scared he would never heal this time.

It was then that she had made up her mind.All through her life she had lived for Kamala's approval,Kamala's love and her dream,but she had always been second best.She had never mattered to her mom as much as Paaki...after all even as a baby wasn't she tended to by a wet nurse?

But Raghav was a different matter...even when he did not want to,he had stood by her,cared for her...and after their love he had been her rock.She knew if she backed out now,her rock would crumble.In making her mother happy she would end up messing the lives of three people...in the long run,Kamala too would be miserable.

She had packed her bags and arrived at Raghav's doorstep.'i am alone in the world now ,Raghav.Will you be by my side now and forever?"she had hardly completed her sentence when she was enveloped in a tight hug.Both had cried unashamedly.The wedding had been a low key affair with only Sammy and Maya.However at the nth hour,Vittal and Pakhya had turned up,much to kalpi's joy.They had fully supported her decision.Vittal had told her that rajkumari was always right.As for Kamala ,he was confident that with time she would see the truth as it was,and not through Paaki's tinted glasses.

And so it was that on Valentine's day,two hearts were joined together.Not only on V day but forever and ever...the story of Ragna with its joyous ending,nay beginning had just commenced.

I indeed like your Kalpi, finally she kept her priorities right and pursued her heart

i really liked the way you described how Kalpi took her decision in favor of Raghav.

loved it

Waitin for the couple to come closer...!
