Pyar hai....sirf tumse.. Part 8b (last part) on Page 33 - Page 23

Next day she reached office on her usual time and Raghav was already there before her, she was so surprised to see him before time. Everyone greeted her wholeheartedly and congratulated both of them for their marriage. She understood that Raghav had told them everything about that day.They also teased her for placing that challenge in front of him. She will soon agree to the proposal, they knew this; after all he is Raghav who has not lost any challenge till now. She in her usual bossy tone told them that this is not going to be so easy this time and everyone should rather get back to work. They all could not help him with suggestions, she told them. Raghav had to plan on his own about how to propose her, after all it was his challenge. But they knew inside their hearts that Raghav doesn't need anyone's help, he himself would come up with something out of this world to propose her. They all quietly got back to their respective work.

When they all were sitting for a meeting in the conference room with Dilip sir, Raghav was sitting next to Trisha. Raghav handed her a file to Trisha, but while handing it over the file fell down. She bent down to pick it up and at the same time, he also bent down and held her hand tightly. She tried to free her hand but his grip was very strong. She whispered "Kya kar rahe ho Raghav, chhodo mera haath" But he mischeviously replied with a smile "ab itni mushkil se tumhara haath mere haath mein aaya hai, itni aasani se nahi chhodunga"

Trisha: Raghav please chhodo varna main chilaaungi

Raghav: achha to chilla kar dikhaao... Chalo chhod deta hu but ek shart par...Mujhse shaadi karne ke liye haan kaho

Trisha: no...aise to kabhi nahi...

Dilip sir called out Trisha's name, and Raghav left her hand at once and handed over the file to her.

Dilip sir: kya hua Trisha, everything alright?

Both of them simultaneously answered "Yes Sir...No Sir...No problem Sir..." the others gave them a smile and the meeting proceeded.

When she opened that file after some time, she saw a beautiful sketch of hers ...at the bottom of that sketch, it was Caligraphically written...Love You Trisha...Please marry me...she understood that this was another attempt at proposal from his side. She was lost in the beauty of that sketch but she didn't want to make it so easy for him this time and she suddenly exclaimed a "NO" loudly. Everyone was surprised to hear this and she felt very embarrassed on seeing their expressions. They understood that she had just now declined a proposal from him and she hesitantly excused herself and went out of the room. The meeting was postponed by chief as he understood what was going around at this time. Later they teased him for this after the meeting and told him that she would not agree so easily. He told them that he knew these attempts won't be successful but still he wanted to make her happy by his failing attempts.

Later in the evening, after everyone left... he went to her cabin and found her busy in her work. She was so engrossed in her work that she didn't realise when Raghav entered her cabin. He came very close to her face and whispered in her ears..."aaj ghar nahi jaana kya " Trisha was surprised at this whisper and at once she turned her face towards him and he instantly gave her a kiss on her cheek.

Trisha: kya kar rahe ho Raghav, koi dekh lega...

Raghav: koi nahi hai dekhne ke liye...sab ja chuke hain...lagta hai aaj boss ko time ka khayal nahi hai...you know time kya hua hai? its 10:30 pm sweetheart...

Trisha: really!!! Sach me aaj time ka pata nahi chala. Tum jaao main thodi der me chali jaaungi...bas thoda kaam baaki hai.

Raghav: main kahin nahi jar aha. Tum apna kaam finish kar lo, then we'll go back together. Main tab tak yahan baithkar tumhe dekhta hu...

Trisha: tumhe aur koi kaam nahi hai kya?

Raghav: tumhe dekhne se zyada important aur kuch nahi hai mere liye...he said with a smile.

Trisha: ab yeh flirting band karo aur mujhe kaam finish karne do...ok

She finished her work in around an hour and then they both started together for their homes.

They both were alone inside the lift and after going down few floors the lift suddenly stopped in between and it became absolutely dark inside. Trisha recalled the time when Raghav got scared due to his haunting joker's mask when they were alone in the hospital lift murder case. She immediately went close to him and gave him a tight hug.

Trisha: relax Raghav...its ok...I'm here with you...tum apne past ke bare me nahi, sirf mere baare me socho...I'm always there for you... And she kept on holding onto him. After few minutes, the lights inside switched on but the lift didn't start. Raghav came out of his thoughts and saw her so close. Trisha moved away as she realised that the lights were on now.

Trisha: are you ok?

Raghav: ya...but yeh lift ko kya hua?

He called up the security and asked them as to what had happened. He was told that there was a major fault and the repair work was going on. It might take some time. As there was nothing else to do and he saw her becoming a bit restless inside, he decided to divert her thoughts and told her to sit down on the floor itself. Though she resisted initially, but seeing that there was no other option till the lift starts, she agreed. He kept on talking to her about something or the other and in between kept on playing his usual pranks with her. She couldn't believe herself that in such a situation also...he had the mind and heart to be so talkative and pranky. In around half an hour, the lift got repaired and they came out to the parking.

Raghav: Trisha tum apni car yahin par chhod do, aaj main tumhe ghar drop kar deta hu. I don't want you to go alone at this hour in the night. Paas mein ek dhaaba hai, suna hai wahan ka khana bahut achha hai...chalo aaj wahan dinner karte hai.

She agreed to this as it was already midnight and she was also feeling very hungry. They went to that dhaba and had dinner together. While having dinner, they saw a bhangra dance group which had come to that dhaba. After finishing their meals, the group dancers started performing bhangra dance at the request of all the other people present there. Though it was quite late, but both of them decided to stay for that dance as Trisha insisted on doing so. Somehow he realised that she had started to become a normal girl who wants to enjoy her life with him; in his company she forgets everything else and he was very happy to see her like this. She was lost in the bhangra dance and after some time when all the people were also dancing with the dance group, she pulled him also for the dance. He told her that he didn't know bhangra but she told him that even she didn't know...but she wanted to dance with him along with that group and he had to agree. Both of them tried to copy some of their steps and in a few minutes only they were so lost in dancing together that they forgot everything else. He saw her so happy after a long time today. After the dance finished, they thanked the dance group and went back towards their home.

Trisha: sorry Raghav maine tumhe dance ke liye force kiya...

Raghav: its ok darling, apni wife ke saath dance ka mauka to mila...waise hum dono hi bahut bura bhangra karte hain...nahi? and they both burst out laughing and after that he drove towards her house and kept on teasing her in between. He dropped her at her residence and went ahead towards his own.

The next day again he was thinking on how to propose her and suddenly an idea clicked into his mind. While they were all waiting for her in the dining hall at lunch time, he saw her coming towards the hall and seeing her...he started searching for something. When she saw him searching, she asked him as to what he was searching for? He didn't answer and kept on searching. Few minutes later she got irritated and strictly asked him what he was doing?

Raghav: kuch nahi Trisha...meri sabse important cheez gum gayi hai...kab se dhoond raha hu, mil hi nahi rahi hai. Tum dekho...kahin tumhare paas to nahi hai? tumhari pocket mein...tumhare paeron ke neeche...please check karo...

Trisha: what is it Raghav? aakhir kya khoya hai? she looked towards everyone but no one had any clue.

Raghav: mera dil... Dekho shayad tumhare paas hi hoga.

Trisha was shocked to hear this along with everyone present there. She felt slightly embarrassed to see their reaction and turned her eyes down. She blushed hearing this from him and understood that this was another way of his proposal. How could he propose openly in office like this, she thought. She placed her hand on her eyes and just could not look into his eyes out of her hesitance.

Raghav: jab se tumhe dekha hai, main apna dil tumpar haar chuka hu. Please ise humesha sambhaal kar apne paas rakhna aur tum apna dil mujhe de sakti ho, agar tum chaho to... Main tumhare dil se kaam chala lunga. Trisha I want to confess today that I really love you from the bottom of my heart and I won't be able to live without you. Please mujhse shaadi kar lo...nahi to pata nahi main kya karunga. She being such an introvert felt so embarrassed and somehow she managed to give him a stare and went out of the hall at once towards her cabin. Raghav went behind her to her cabin,

Trisha: what was this Raghav? how could you propose in front of so many people. You know I don't like all this. Please Raghav aise proposal ke liye to maine nahi kaha tha na...agar tumhe koi aur proposal samajh nahi aata to please, lets finish off this challenge here and now only. I don't want to continue it any further...pata nahi tum kya kya aur karoge? Please Raghav lets end it...

Raghav: I'm sorry sweetheart agar maine tumhe hurt kiya to...ok just one last chance...ok ...agar is baar main fail hua to I'll accept my defeat and I'll not ask you for a repeat marriage...ok...just one last chance...please...I promise I'll not let you down this time...Please Trisha...one last chance...

Trisha: ok ...but last chance...

Raghav: ok done...bas tum kal ka din mere liye free rakho...tumhara kal ka poora din mera...please.

Trisha: but why? Karna kya chahte ho tum?

Raghav: that's a surprise...ab ek chance maanga hai, jaisa main kehta hu...waisa karo na please...tomorrow morning I'll come to pick you up...ok...

Trisha: Ok Raghav

That's it in this part...please don't kill me for not completing my story in this part only. I just wanted to present the proposal separately. I don't know whether you all would like this part or not as I have written it in quite a hurry. I was not getting time to write it and I want to finish it soon as I have my exam somewhere in august or September. I plan to start my next story only after that. I'll continue to write poems and make song posts but as you all know, story takes a lot of time.

Please I'm sorry if I could not meet upto your expectations...please forgive me this time...i'm really sorry if you don't like this part...please please please...
