Story which I loved from past 4 years.. So thought of to make it as Arnav and Khushi.
Khushi met Arnav on a party.
He was so outstanding, many girls chasing after him, while she was so normal, nobody paid attention to her...
At the end of the party, She invited him to have coffee with her, He was surprised, but due to being polite, he promised.
They sat in a nice cafe, She was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable...
Suddenly Khushi asked the waiter: "would you please give me some salt ? I'd like to put it in my tea."
Everybody stared at her, so strange !!!
Her face turned red, but, still, She put the salt in her tea and drank it.
Arnav asked her curiously: why you have this hobby ??
She replied: "when I was a little girl, I was living near the sea, I liked playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty tea. Now every time I have the salty tea, I always think of my childhood, think of my home town, I miss my home town so much, I miss my parents who are living there right now. While saying that tears filled her eyes.
He was deeply touched. That's her true feeling, from the bottom of her heart. A girl who can tell out her homesickness, She must be a girl who loves home, cares about home, has responsibility of home.
Then he also started to speak, spoke about his far away hometown, his childhood, his family. That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story.
They continued to date.
Arnav found that actually She was a woman who meets all his demands; She had tolerance, was kind hearted, warm, careful and loving.
Then the story was just like every beautiful love story, the princess married to the prince, and then they were living the happy life...
Khushi started drinking Salty Tea. It was a routine for her now to drink salty tea in the morning.
After 10 years, She passed away, left him a letter which said:
" My dearest Love Arnav,
please forgive me, forgive my whole life lie. This was the only lie I said to you---the salty tea.
Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt.
It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead.
I never thought that could be the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything..
Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth: I don't like the salty tea at all, what a strange bad taste.. But I have had the salty tea for my whole life! Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you.
Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for the second time, still want to know you and have you for my whole life, even though I have to drink the salty Tea again".
I love you Arnav. I love you forever..:)
Miss me.
Your Love and Life,
Khushi.
His tears made the letter totally wet.
Years later, someone asked Arnav: what's the taste of salty Tea ?
It's sweet.Very Sweet, Arnav replied.
ARSHI'love is not to forget but to forgive, not to see but understand not to hear but to listen, not to let go but HOLD ON !!!!
Love is unconditional. It makes you weak and it makes you strong. It confuses you and even solves them.
We love: that's why life is full of so many wonderful gifts.
