Ahem enters the room and locks the door. He finds the room darker then the usual and calls out "Gopi" and walks slowly and cautiously "Gopi, why is the room this dark??" takes a few steps "Gopi, where are you?? (pause) say something Gopi". The dim lights in his room are switched on, and he is surprised to see the room decorated with white and purple flowers, the floor covered with ballons of various colours, a birthday lounge music playing in the background and most importantly, he was awestruck seeing Gopi wearing his favourite colour green. Gopi slowly walks to him with a graceful smile on her face and standing in front of him extends her hand saying "come" he smiles back at her whole heartedly and gives his hand in hers and follows till the coffee table. Ahem is more surprised to see the small coffee table covered with multi-rose petals and small dark choco cake on it and besides it there are two big cards, a gift and a red rose, seeing all this he questions "Gopi, whats all this for??" she smiles at him and slowly bends down and burns the candle saying "your Birthday surprise" Gopi gets up saying "Ahemjii.. please cut the cake" he nods and takes a step forwardand takes Gopi's hand in his saying "join me". GoHem cut the cake together and fed each other.
Gopi then gives Ahem the big Birthday card, he opens and reads the note :-
I cant imagine passing moment of my life without you
I cant imagine living my dreams without you
I cant imagine going into anyone's arms for peace but yours
What would i have done, if you werent born on this lovely day, few years ago??
I Love You
Happy Birthday, Ahemjiii
Ahem's eyes were brimmed with tears reading the note and he lovingly says "thank you, Gopi" "My Pleasure" she quips back and they share an eye-lock. Gopi, then breaks the trance and gives him another card, it had sorry embossed on it. Ahem doesnt opens the card and says "Gopi, why this sorry card??" Gopi, slightly lowers her graze and says "Ahemjii.. am sorry.. I didnt wish you in the morning" "its okay" he says. Later she gives him the gift, Ahem opens it and is even more surprised to see a blue shirt, he looks at her and syas "Gopi, this shirt??!!" Gopi says "jii... ahemjii.. i know.. you dont like such colours.. but, when i had been to the shop i thought this shirt will look good on you, so i bought it.. but.. if youu.." "you thought that il look good in this shirt??" he interrupts her and she nods her head a yes "wait" he says, giving Gopi a known look and goes to the restroom to change. After awhile he comes out and whispers in her ear saying "Gopi, wont see how right was your thought" hearing she turns around to see him and had a wonderful smile on her afce, which itself said how good her husband was looking in that shirt and they share an eye-lock.
Ahem extends his hand saying "shall we dance??" Gopi hesistantly gives her hand in his and slowly matches him up with the dance. GoHem either stealing glances at each other or are sharing eye-locks, Gopi by now had become tomato red and couldnt keep the smile away from her lips and Ahem was more mesmerised seeing her, they danced for awhile, Ahem sees the rose and says "Gopi, who gave you the red rose??" she looks at him confusingly and says "red rose" and he indicates her the flower with his eyes, Gopi turns around and goes to the coffee table and extends it to him saying "Happy Birthady, Ahemjii" he gladly takes it from her saying "Gopi, thank you so much. My birthday had never been this special. Thank you for making it so special and memorable" Gopi's are slightly brimmed with tears and says "Ahemji.. my pleasure" and they share an eye-lock allowing their eyes to do the talking.
Ahem breaks the silence teasingly says "Gopi, this all good but (pause)" "but what Ahemjii??" she asks curiousily he continues "but, where is my Special birthday gift??" gopi gets more confused and asks "special birthady gift??" "yes gopi... its every wife's duty to give her husband a special gift on his birthday.. dont tell me, you dint knew about this??" she lowers her graze and frowns a little for not knowing what a special birthday gift a wife has to her hubby on his birthday. Ahem sees her frowning and says "dont worry.. il tell you a whats a special gift is" she immediately looks up to him, Ahem bends a little and patting his cheek with his finger says "special gift". Seeing him do this, Gopi's eyes widened with surprise, her cheek become more red and a shy smile smile spreaded, she slowly lowered her graze and said "Ahemjiii.. woh... i..." "what is it Gopi,?? what are you thinking about??" he pats his cheek again and says "am waiting". Goi kept struggling with words "jiii... wohhh... ahemjiii..." and mangaes to escape, but to be stopped by Ahem holding her by the wrist, and slowly turns her around, her eyes are lowerd he says "Gopijiii.. today is my birthday... and you cant deny the birthday boy his special gift (pause) and if you deny the birthday boy, the birthday boy has every right of punishing you" hearing this she says "punishment?!?!" he leaves her hand and folding his hand says "yes Gopijii punishment (pause) so the ball is entirely in your court.. you either give me my special gift or else bare the punishment" Gopi takes sometime to think, she detemindely takes a step forward, lowers her graze, slowly goes on her toes and leans forward plants a kiss on Ahem's cheek. once she is down she had become more red and pink in colour and feeling shy turns to walk away.
Ahem calls her "Gopi" she was left with no option and stops letting her beat 1000 times faster then the normal, he comes near her and whispers "I have to give you a return gift" and turns her. Ahem extends his right hand ansd says "make a promise" "promise" she says slowly putting her hand on his, Ahem says "first hear what i want to say and then say a promise" Gopi looks into his eyes and says "promise". Ahem takes a step forward and says "promise me, every mornign you'l first wish me a good morning" "promise comes her reply" he smiles at her and leaning forward kisses her forehead; coming back he says "promise me, every night you'l first wish me a good night" she blushes hard and says "pro...mise" he smiles at her and leaning forward kisses her left cheek; coming he says "promise me (pause) be it any festival, you'l first wish me" she blushes even more hard and struggling hard sasy "pro.. mise" he smiles at her and kisses her right cheek; coming backe he says "promise me (pause) every year on my birthady, you'l first wish me" she couldnt utter a word and simply nods her head Ahem teases her "Gopi, promise me" she again struggles hard with words and says "pro... miseee" he smlies at her and leans towards her and comes near her lips, seeing her lips tremble he kisses her nose. Gopi, could no longer hold back her sfyness and blush and turns to flee away and again Ahem holds her hadn by the wrist and innocently says "Gopi, you dint tell me... how was my return gift?? did you like it??" Gopi somehow manages to free her hand and flees away, leaving a smiling Ahem ๐ณ
