Part 3 - A Five Star Chaklet Affair
Swayam had reached home all exhausted with the day's events he never knew until today that shopping could be so confusing and tiring. Normally he would buy whatever clothes he sees and likes without giving a second thought to it but, today he actually took effort in buying gifts from jewelry to the teddy bear. He thought and considered everything he could regard with Sharon from her likes to her thoughts about them before purchasing it. The whole day went in a blur but it was totally worth it. Thinking back he could feel his heart racing remembering how elegant Sharon looked in the white dress what she wore to college today. He couldn't help but noticed that she remembered he liked that dress on her and that she wore it for him. While Sharon may have thought he wasn't around but he was right there noticing her every move her every expression. How she had frown on not finding him there and how her face had lit up while she read his proposal though with tears nevertheless she looked serene. Swayam mentally slapped himself he couldn't afford to get lost in his Sharon Land he had to plan the next day and pack her chocolates.
Next day Swayam was ready with the gift boxes for Sharon. He had bought a whole box of 5 Star which were her favourite chocolates along with a bunch of other chocolates. He hopes for a repeat performance of the previous two days he wanted to make her happy.
Here Sharon was getting ready in a blue dress and was wondering just how many chocolates she would receive from Swayam today. She loved chocolates only Swayam knew about the obsession she had for them. Last time she had sat down and research what all days are celebrated in the valentine week all the while berating herself for behaving like the girls she absolutely wish would never cross her path yet reminding herself that this was different she was in love and it was nothing wrong in being prepared ahead.
Meanwhile Swayam had deposited a box of chocolate on Sharon's door step and hid nearby yet far from view hoping to catch her reaction to the chocolates. He wasn't disappointed soon Sharon was out of the door and she took noticed of the box and eagerly started tearing into it with a big smile on her face. She opens the box to reveal various selections of dark chocolates with a note attach JUST FOR YOUR BITTERSWEET CRAVING. "He remembers I like the bittersweet taste of dark chocolates" she thought to herself as she recalls the day she told him about her chocolate love.
*Flashback*
Sharon and Swayam were at a chocolate shop trying different samples of chocolates. They were there because Sharon was bored with the movie they had come to watch with their friends and she had dragged him into the shop to get away from the theatre." You know Swayam I love chocolates like really love them" she informed him taking another bite of the delicious treat." I can see that" he smile offering her his piece which she gladly took." I love the bittersweet taste of the dark chocolate. White chocolate just melts into your mouth. The nutty flavour of the hazelnut chocolates are to die for. Liqueur chocolates are best if you ever want them for a gift for your date. Milk Chocolates are just perfect. But, 5 Star is my favourite chocolate." She kept ranting while she devours all the chocolates she can see. Swayam kept staring at her mentally taking notes for future.
*Flashback Ends*
Satisfied Swayam left for college and waited for Sharon in her locker room. Sharon reached her locker room stopped and thought for a minute and then decided to search her locker after all she had received gifts at the locker before. She got excited to see another box inside which had a Box of white chocolate .She saw the note which said "I HOPE IT MELTS INTO YOUR MOUTH LIKE YOU LIKE THEM FOR IT." Shaking her head she carefully kept it back and left for canteen to see her friends.
Swayam smiled to himself seeing her leave and asked a girl to give the box he had to Sharon in canteen. Sharon saw a girl coming towards her with a gift box she raised an eyebrow at her but the girl just gave her the box and left. The gang urged her to open the box she had she open the box contained liqueur chocolates and a note "THE PERFECT GIFT FOR TODAY ISN'T IT RIGHT SHARON?" She blushed when the gang started to tease her about it and scolded them for it.
Sharon saw gift box on her regular seat in the classroom and stared at it. She opens it after being nudged by Simmi back into the world. This time it contained hazelnut chocolates with the note saying "I HOPE YOU DON'T DIE AT THEIR TASTE". She was surprised how he remembers every bit of the rant she gave that day.
Later Sharon found a box in the rehearsal hall she knew this would have milk chocolates and she wasn't wrong the box indeed had them she looked for a note and found it at the bottom of the box "PERFECT JUST FOR YOU". She smiled to herself and hid the box before anybody could see it.
Sharon returned home to find a box of 5 Star sitting there and a letter with it "I know it seems like a repeat of rose day but I couldn't give them to you all at once I wanted it to spread throughout the day. I hoped you aren't disappointed. I Love You. Ps - I remember they are your favourite." Sharon was so happy that he remembered everything and she desperately wished for him to be there and wondered why he did not come in front of her. She had a idea and immediately acted on it.
Swayam opened the door to find box chocolates of half removed 5 star chocolates in a box with a note "All I need is your love which I know I have plenty and some chocolates .I wish you were here to share these 5-Star with me. Since you won't be coming here god knows why" Swayam could imagine Sharon shaking her head while writing it "I am sending over half of the chocolates to you at least we can have the same chocolate at the same time. Will be waiting for you signal love. I love you too" Swayam couldn't express his happiness at her gesture he texted her at once.
Both of them ate the chocolates at the same time thinking about their each other while wishing to be with each other looking forward for their future.
