Inviting - exciting - emotion
with power I had never known,
a world of unchained devotion
because you were my very own.
I had fallen in love with you.
Together we sailed in springtime
to an isle beyond seas of blue,
and when we returned, a new life
was waiting, in a valley of dreams
where I first fell in love with you.
Arnav came back from office. It was 1.00 am. It was the usual thing. He would get up early and come home late.
After whole misunderstanding, when he found that he was wrong, he guiltily looked into her eyes, silently asking for forgiveness. No'.actually he wanted her to punish him. To make him suffer. And she did. She did the worst. She forgave him. She showed him that whatever happens'.she will be always there with him'.for him. He just has to ask, and she will give her soul away.
Yes. She made him suffer from the guilt. She made his heart ache from her acceptance. But with all this, she made him feel abjected.
Khushi has been herself even after the "truth" has oozed out. She knew that she should've left him. She wanted to hate him. How can he think like this? How can he misunderstand her like this? How can he not see love in her eyes? There were lots of questions.
She wanted to leave him, to erase everything from her heart. But she couldn't. Why..?
She knew why'she hadn't answered earlier. She loved him. More than anything. More than anyone. Yes, she loved him. <3
Arnav got out of bathroom. He saw her lying on bed, but not sleeping. In fact staring him. Those beautiful hazel eyes looking at him. So immensely, so innocently, so lovingly.
He turned off the lights and came to bed. Lying on his back. His head was throbbing. But more than that'something alive was throbbing in his chest. He wanted to look at her. "Don't look at her'.don't look at her'don't look at her'" he kept on repeating in his mind. No he won't look at her. He won't look into those deep doe-like eyes that make him feel vulnerable.
"Why are you ignoring me Arnavji?"
And he looked into those eyes. Those beautiful eyes that can soothe your pain.
"Please tell me Arnavji." She asked him while shifting towards him slightly.
"Khushi'I'm'I'I just'" He sat on bed, resting his back on restboard. Room was dark but the moonlight was entering through the French door. Khushi also sat up, placing herself in front of her love.
"Please khushi don't do this to me." He said. His voice showing every pain, every feeling of abjection.
"What am I doing arnavji?" She said in a sweet low voice.
"Why are you like this khushi? Huh? I broke your trust. I gave you nothing but pain. I wasn't able to protect you from that leech." His eyes getting blurred due to those images that came into his mind. Reminding him of that black day when shyam was trying to molest Khushi. His Khushi.
"I made you disowned by your own family. I made you sleep over there." Pointing outside. "On the poolside. I gave you scars, crushed your dreams. I was the reason for your tears." Hating himself for making those pearl in her eyes fall. "I ruined everything. I've done so many unforgivable things and you are still here with me. Why khushi???" His dam broke off. He was crying bitterly. Tears pouring down of his pearl eyes.
She was crying too. How can she see him like this? In such a disheveled state? She wanted to soothe him. But she didn't. Because she knew if he won't say everything which is going on in his mind tonight then he won't be able to confess his true feelings for her. So she waited. Waited for him to finish. Still looking into his eyes.
"How can you still live with a man who gave you nothing but immense pain?" His voice now hoarse with all crying. "How can you still care for me? Please punish me Khushi. Please." He was crying like a baby now.
She brought her one hand to his cheek and wiped his tears. With other hand she placed his hand above her heart. His eyes got stick to hers. She came closer and started softly. "Arnavji, you did what circumstances made you do. It was never your fault. You did this for di, for your family. Yes I was angry at first. You should've at least asked me once." Wiping his tears as fresh ones were tracing path of old ones. "But I couldn't hate you arnavji. And you are right. You were the reason for my tears. But you are the only reason for my life. You are my happiness even though my name is khushi but I don't mind sharing it with you. Hehehe'" chirpy was definitely she was. "You are wrong that you made my life miserable. You made it beautiful. Beautiful in every way. How can you make my family disown me when you expanded my family by just being a part of it."
She cupped his face and kissed his eyes. "You know when you give me pain?"
His eyes glancing her questioningly.
"When you ignore me."looking at him.
" When you don't talk to me." touching him.
"When you don't look at me." carresing his jaw.
" When you don't touch me."leaving a butterfly kiss over his chin.
Arnav was awestruck by her love. "So you like me touching you. Huh?"
"Very much." She said.
He was absorbing every moment of his lady. He was so lost in her eyes. Those mesmerizing beautiful eyes. His heart went on a full pace when she kissed him on his eyes. His hand which was lying on her chest went behind her nape and other went around her tiny waist. He then pulled her more closely. She was now sitting on his thighs. Their foreheads were touching and they were nuzzling their nose. He always use to become an abate infront of her.
Khushi cups Arnav face and asks "why this happens when you are around, my heartbeat gets fast?"
Arnav caresses her face then takes her hand on his heart. "When we meet'our heartbeat gets one and beats in a union." He replied. Listening to this one beat, one rhythm, one love.
All this time his hands were constantly creating havoc on her senses, massaging her nape while other motioning over her waist. He crawled his hand towards her dense hair. Bringing her face close. His touch was provoking her. She could feel something in the pit of her stomach. Her lips were quivering and her pupils were dilating. Just by his mere touch he was making her nervous, taking her beyond boundaries. But little did she know what her touch was doing in him. His body was growing and setting passion in every cell. But his mind was at peace.
"Have I ever told you how deeply I am in love with you?" He asked while kissing on her nose tip.
"Yes'..Your eyes tell me every time, when you look at me." She said while kissing him on his cheeks.
And the night went on as these two were embraced into each-other whispering sweet things in ears and starting new journey.
