Chapter 7
The fight between the newly married couple had been followed by a night of passion. Kushi was brushing her hair as she looked over to the man that was still fast asleep. She knew he had questions and she knew how persistent he is. But she was glad that their intimacy had banished all his questions for the night and wondered how she would deal with it once it does come up. And knowing Aranv Singh Raizada, it's going to come up again and again and again until he gets the truth out of her.
She bit her lip and decided that as long Nani, Abhay and Anjali Di were still in town, she could weasel her way of out of telling him the truth. But what was she going to do when they were alone? With a worried look on her face, she gently opened the door and walked over to the kitchen to get some coffee and breakfast ready for everyone.
30 minutes later, she had the table set and was getting Arnav's coffee ready when she suddenly felt a set of strong arms wrap around her waist. She smiled shyly at his affectionate ways and giggled as he kissed her neck ticklishly.
"Why did you leave my side without waking me up?" he asked her
"Well you were fast asleep, I didn't have the heart to wake you up" she said happily still getting the coffee ready
"But I missed you!' he said whining like a 5 year old
"Ahhh don't be silly!! Now move before I spill this all over you!!!" she said laughing as she ducked him again and turned around to face him.
"Here.. Your coffee.. " she said smiling at her
"Thank You.. Come sit down with me" he said as he led her to the dining table.
"I have something for you" he said again before he sat down allowing her to take a seat.
"And what would that be?" she asked him
He pulled something out of his pocket and got on one knee and she giggled again like a child.
"What are you doing??"
"Making a proposal! The way it's supposed to be done" he said as he brought one hand forward to hold her arm and revealed a beautiful pair of bangles in the other
"What's this??" She asked suddenly realizing what he was holding
"The last time you had this on, it was all wrong.. And then last night, I know it wasn't what you probably hand in mind.. So let me do this now the right way.. Ma will be happy to see this finally go to someone as precious as you.."
"But.."
"Kushi Kumar Gupta, I mean Raizada! Will you promise to be my wife for the rest of eternity and make me the happiest man on earth?" he asked with a boyish smile
Tears formed in her eyes as she looked at him. He was so gentle and so kind beneath it all. And she knew in her heart that she is the luckiest girl in the world. Yes, they have had their moments and this was certainly not how she expected to get married, but her heart will always belong to him.
"Of course you crazy man!!" she finally said as tears of joy rolled down her cheeks and he gently slipped the bangles on to her hand.
"These are tears of joy.. So don't freak out or anything.." she said as he stood up and raised her up as well.
"I know.." he said in a soft voice and leaned over and kissed here.
"You are the most amazing woman in this world and I will never let anything happen to you.." he said as he withdrew from her and held her face in his hands.
"Promise?" she asked smiling through her tears.
"Promise!" he said wiping her tear streaked face.
As Aranv dried his wife's face and thought back on what had happened, he realized how fragile she really was. Through her fragility comes her strength and that's something he always admired in her. He had known for some time that she was the one and he was in glee knowing that his wish was finally coming true.
As he was about to reach down and kiss her again, he suddenly heard a knock at the door. It seemed that the kiss would have to wait..
