Chapter 15
PART 2
"MARRIAGE....???""Benji demanded from the floor.He had slid off his chair when he had realised that Samrat was seriously considering marrying Gunjan.
Samrat looked down at him from the couch and asked.
""You okay?You seemed to have fallen down pretty hard.Bottom is okay right?""
Benji grimaced.
""Dude stop worrying about my bottom.Its your neck under the axe now.""
Samrat raised his eyebrows.Benji nodded seriously.
""Marriage is not safe for you dude...not mentally and not emotionally.Are you really prepared to give up your life and settle into matrimony?""he said more seriously than ever.
""You make it sound like I am committing sucide not getting married.""Samrat said amused.
Benji shook his head,opened his mouth and then closed it.
"How did get your father to agree on this?""
"Wasnt too difficult.You know how Dad is always wanting me to become responsible.Mom convinced him that once I have the responsibility of a wife..""he smirked at that"I will start being responsible towards my life.Marriage ..the best medicine for curing fooling around.""
Benji sighed,almost crying out loud.
""Also Dad likes my choice.He thought I would bring home some mini skirt wild female counterpart of me..but Gunjan is sensible and stable! and he approves of my choice!He had to really...Chasmish is simply perfect.""Samrat finished with a tender smile.
""Oh..oh...god...i cant bear this.""Benji exclaimed.
""What?""
""Samrat..the cool dude being slaughtered like a helpless sheep.""
Samrat shrugged.
""It was my decision.""
Benji sighed sitting up.
""And I dont understand it at all.I mean you want to marry Gunjan who told you that she isnt interested in you..""
""She didnt say that.She said that her defination of a relationship is different from mine.She rates commitment as the highest priority.I rate her as my mine.With marriage we both get what we want.""
Benji wasnt convinced.
""But dude...you dont know her that well.I mean maybe you do...but are you sure about this marriage thing?Isnt this happening too fast?""
As he contemplated the question he relived the last few days of his life.Once Chashmish had told him that she wasnt interested,he had surprised himself.The turmoil and despair had left him flabbergasted.
He couldnt understand how he had developed such strong emotions within such a short amount of time.He just knew he couldnt live with the idea of not being with her.The idea was one...he couldnt live with!
It was pain beyond any he had known.He still didnt know why he felt it.Honestly their interaction as a boss-employee had been fantastic but as his dream girl their communication had been at a bare minimum.
Marrying her would be insanity!Except that it didnt feel that way.What was insane was the urge to die when he thought of her with someone else.If he didnt marry her someone else would and ....
What was driving him insane was the fact he would never see her blush again...not feel her trembling in his arms.Not touch her soft hair...
that was insanity!Letting go of a girl who meant more than the world to him.
That was when he decided.
If she wanted commitment...he would give her seven lives worth of commitment.
There were no doubts on his mind now.
""I know what I am doing Benji..""he said dismissively
