Part 1
"Babyyy.." fishing with my hand on the bed over the place next to me.
"Babyyy..."
I didn't find HER, my pretty bubbly wife near me.
I think she left my side, to be precise the bed as I have still my eyes closed and arms stretched.
Last night, we had a good workout session on our bed which is the reason for my late wakeup.
Sometimes, I questioned how come SHE is always active, I mean in personal and professional world while I should be the morning person with the profession I'm doing.
Let me tell you about her.
SHE is visible and audible to everybody or I can say mostly to me.
When SHE is somewhere, that place can't be calm.
SHE will make her presence obvious to this world as SHE will be humming a song or taping on something or talking to someone.
The only time I can see her calm is when we do our workout together.
Even at that time she will sign my name with her musical voice which makes me go insane.
So knowing her well, I'm sure she is not in the bathroom or in the dressing room as the silence is making this place creepy.
You are absolutely right; I'm used to her sounds and her melodious voice.
I get out of the bed, took a quick shower and walk out of our room towards the hall from where the kitchen is visible.
There I can see HER, Mrs. Chakor Suraj Rajvanshi, my dear life since the moment I met her 2 months ago in a Cafe.
I can never forget our first encounter.
*************** 1st ENCOUNTER ***************
January 5th
When I was getting ready for work, my parents came with a smile playing on their lips and speaking between them with their eyes and head.
I cleared my throat to tell them that I can see that they have something to say and I know what it is.
They passed me an envelope and waited scrutinizing my expression.
I smirked and opened the envelop and took out the photo of a beautiful girl the world knows.
When the world knows HER, where is the need for the photo. But my parents are special, so the photo is now in my hand.
As I said I know the reason for their visit.
My father long last friend has a daughter who is a singer and they are looking for an appropriate groom for HER.
My parents met them by accident a week ago in a function and they discussed all this there.
Since Friday evening they are nonstop talking about how beautiful she is, HER voice is melodious, HER being one of the prominent singer (there they go on how to tackle their son. Signing is one of the profession I wanted to do as a result of inspiration from my childhood neighbor while my voice was ruder than softer) BLAH BLAH BLAH...
I knew to put a straight face until I failed miserably in front HER on our first meeting itself.
I'm sure with my look, my parents couldn't guess what I'm thinking through my eyes.
As there is no change of expression in me, my mother started HER praises and ordered me to go and meet HER at The Cafe Day in evening with a proper look.
I just sighed and bid them bye after promising to meet HER in evening.
The day went uneventful with 2 investigations with no result.
I changed into white shirt and blue jeans before leaving the office.
I entered the coffee shop and saw HER seated in a corner table with a boy near HER.
He must be around 4 or 5 years old and enthusiastically speaking with HER.
I was not far from table when I hear HER say
"I love you Sweetheart!" raffling the small boy's hair.
"I love you Boutifull!" and he kisses my girl.
At that time, she was just the girl I'm going to see but it's not acceptable that someone kisses HER when I 'm there, even if it's a kid. I'm too possessive. I'm there to see HER but it's not right.
She is smiling at that boy and this simple smile is doing something me, OMG!
Just by knowing from my parents that she is the one they selected for me, something hard hit my heart. Who in this world will not like her, simple yet beautiful face. It was OK from that moment itself.
Moreover, she is a singer. So all I wanted to know was to know HER opinion about me, my profession and ...
The boy ram from there by my side to join his parents, it's when she noticed me and smiled and welcomed me to take a place.
After few seconds of silence, I started to speak
"I don't know what you know about me. So let me introduce myself. I'm Suraj Rajvanshi!"
"Nice to meet you ACP sir, I mean Su... I'm Chakor Bhuvan Lal." shaking hands with me.
"You can call me Suraj or"
"Sure handsome!" she played along with me guessing my words.
"Not bad for a first meet!" smiling at her.
"Did you think I would be reserved and Shy-Shy type?"
"No! Being a singer I didn't think you to be shy and all. But"
"But?"
"As we are here to talk about our might-be-future-together, I thought you will be calm. May be you have already experienced this type of encounter."
She smirked and said "Well this is my first ever encounter!"
I understood what she wanted to say.
It was time to order, so priority to ladies.
"One cup of coffee please!"
"What would you like to have Sir?"
"Make it two!"
The order was placed and we continued our discussion.
"What did you thought?" she asked in the middle of our conversation.
"About?"
"Marriage? Me? You? Us?"
"First I want you to know about my love life."
"Ohhh!" I can see her eyes sadden a little but she got back to her previous composure.
I told her about the only love or I can say attraction I had on Ria, a last year medical student 3 years before when I was first posted in Delhi.
Ria and I were in relationship only for 6 months. We couldn't give the time and space for each other out of work, so we broke up on a friendly note and I lost her contact since last 2 years.
"Good!" is all she said.
"Good?"
"Hmmm. I always wanted to love my Prince Charming. I mean my husband and that too after marriage. So no love & no commitments."
"Modern cum Homely?"
She nodded.
I remarked that she was taping on the table some small music whenever there was a silence of few seconds.
Our coffee arrived.
"So you like Coffee?" I asked her.
"I think you too!" I just smiled.
"You sign well!"
"Thanks for the compliment! By the way, I heard that you wanted to become a signer!"
Embarrassment! OMG I was sure of murdering someone, and you all know who it is.
"You see I like music and songs, that's it!" she flashed her beautiful smile.
We finished our coffee almost at the same time and I wanted to know what is the outcome of this first investigation, I mean meeting.
"So?"
"So?"
"My profession needs me a lot. Even at odd hours I am needed. I will try my best to be myself with you and not to make my work overpower me." There I saw her smile to me.
"We will live in our apartment and not with my parents as I'm used to it since last few years." And I take a break before continuing "True to my words and honest to my life which will be you, I will be yours and only yours hoping that all goes well if you are OK with it."
"Not bad MFH !"
"MFH?" with a questioning look.
"My Future Husband !"
