Arakshi OS : Mehrbaan Hua

Mehrbaan Hua

(italics for imagination -normal for reality; whichever couple they see... assume Arjun and Sakshi to be wearing that... )

Sakshi smiled at herself and crossed the road... looking at the various colors the city had painted itself too... as they walked close to a remoter part of the city... which looked more like a set out of a movie Sakshi gazed around happily... with a childlike joy..

For Arjun the city was nothing... it blurred into oblivion and only the radiant face of Sakshi's remained in his sight... he gently withdrew his hand from hers...

And to his surprise and joy... she seemed disappointed...

"Wait... main kyun chah rahi thi yeh... main yeh kyun maang rahi thi ki woh mera haath pakde?" she thought and turned to look into his gaze...

Sakshi and Arjun looked at a cute couple in the corner...

Sakshi twirled in her light orange-yellow dress and pouted... it had been 15 minutes since she was waiting for Arjun... she smiled at her own foolish heart! She clutched the small pendant...

She felt her heart throb... it meant he was nearby... she smacked herself for these thoughts.. yet she looked down at the red rose she held... waiting for her beloved...

Arjun comes up from behind and clasps his warm arms around her waist... she smiles...

He bites at her earlobe then licks the bite on her soft skin as she gasps his name... his fingers graze over her knuckles...

He turns around Sakshi towards him and presses his nose against hers... and smiled

He tickles Sakshi near her waist and tangles his fingers with her smooth hair... causing her to chuckle yet be right next to him... he presses his lips against her forehead... and she locks her arms around his neck... enjoying the pure moment of bliss... and satisfaction... her ring finger gleaming with the proposal ring...

Sakshi comes out of her reverie as she misses a step and Arjun holds her tight...

Their notice goes towards a church as the bride comes running out with her groom... throwing the bouquet behind!

Sakshi laughs in joy and squeals in surprise as he picks her in his arms and twirls her around...

Sakshi throws her bouquet towards the sky and locks her arms tightly around Arjun's neck

The crowd cheers and dances for the wedded couple... showering them with petals...

Arjun puts her down and dances with the crowd... Sakshi blushes and runs away... with Arjun chuckling and teasing his wife till they reach the room to spend the wedding night...

Sakshi turns crimson as he keeps his coat and tie aside and gently removes the laces of her wedding dress... his hands tracing her figure... he passes soft feathery kisses on her exposed skin as she looks aside...

Sakshi pushes him aside to only fall back into his arms... and her cute husband offers her the most innocent smile... and she chuckles... as if oblivious to his intentions...

White curtains flow through and hours pass by...

Sakshi and Arjun are wrapped up in a single white sheet... sitting on the balcony edge... she locks her palms with his and looks into his eyes as he passes her a reassuring smile and gently kisses her forehead...

Sakshi closes her eyes in satisfaction...

Arjun picks her up in his arms and places her on the white bed... he pecks her eyes... and intertwines their hands as a sign of pure unadulterated love... a sign of promise... forever... as a sign of their unending happiness...

Sakshi cups his cheeks and pulls them sweetly... she laughs and tries to escape but he has caught the sheet and pulls her closer...

He hugs her tightly... as if to never part from her... he rubs her nose slightly with his... her eyes became teary feeling the immense pleasure and bliss...

As she closes his eyes he sits up with her arms tightly wrapped around his... seeing her eyes close he nuzzles into her neck and smiles... closing his own eyes in happiness...

While she gently ruffles his hair... breathing deeply as she feels his puffs of breath on her exposed collars...

He pokes her perky nose slightly... and smiles at her angelic face...

She smiles and places a soft kiss on his forehead as he lays her down gently... her eyes shut close... in anticipation... her breathing quickens...

He pulls the sheet over them as they toss and turn... white curtains flow through... petals waft lazily through the air...

Their giggles echo in the air... the candles are blown off... Sakshi whimpers softly while clutching the blankets... Arjun cups her flushed cheeks and touches her forehead softly...

As she lays her head on his chest... where his heart thumps against his sternum feeling her soft form cuddle next to him... he looks at his wife... indeed.. he has been blessed... he has been lucky... she's the talisman of his life... 

And then they smile and drift to sleep...

Arjun coughs suddenly... snapping her out of her trance... they have walked into the city as the carnival arrives... some of the ladies... flutter around them in their extravagant costumes...

Sakshi becomes too excited to join them... she giggles and runs to dance with them... her innocent laughter echoes as the most pleasant sound in the air...

He notices her every feature... her now flushed cheeks... her eyes twinkling beneath her spectacles... her feet tumbling a little as she tries to match the fast steps... her loose hair moving in a rhythm of their own...

He leans against the wall and notices the minute details of her that he must have skipped before...

She is beautiful...

And... perhaps... he is in?

Arjun just gazes at her... his heartbeat paces faster... his cheeks have started flushing... has he fallen for her?

He picks out his phone... clicking her pictures... and smiling... his heart beating faster every second...

Sakshi notices him taking her pictures... suddenly she feels the temperature to have risen as he gazes at her intently... she blushes and moves out... standing quietly next to him... they eye at one of the digital posters... a beautiful gif of a couple...

Sakshi's laughter cuts into the air as Arjun twirls her around the beach... she giggles and throws him in the water... running away...  as a naughty Arjun grins and pulls her back... Sakshi looks at him in shock as he passes her intense looks...

She cups his pouty face and pulls his cheeks a little and smiles... she sits on him gently... her head touching hers... and she holds him tightly...

He smiles at her and kisses her bare stomach gently... she gasps his name and her eyes water... he smiles as she understands his wish... to be the mother of his children...

He gives her his famous intense look which sends a shiver down her spine and then he cups her cheeks...

She closes her eyes as he bends down and takes her lips into his... his arms hugging her possessively... while her fingers stroke through his wet hair...

He smiles at her pink face... and rubs her nose against hers.. it being his favorite gesture...

Sakshi and Arjun comes to reality as a car honks...

They both look at each other's faces... surprised to see their flushed cheeks...

They imagined the same thing!

They avert their eyes and start walking back to the hotel... they don't know how to look at each other... their hearts thumping... their breaths quickening...

The birds sang... the sky painted itself to various shades of pink, orange, yellow and red... the colors of love...

Sakshi didn't know what was happening to her... she felt as if her heart would burst out in happiness any minute...

Arjun didn't know what went through him... he felt... liberated... free... in fact he felt as if he was alive again...

Had their Gods been merciful to them? Had they been blessed with the most sacred emotion in the world... was the other one feeling the same... did they pulsate by each other's breathing...

Sakshi's breath hitched as he wrapped his palm around hers... and tightly tugged her towards himself as a car zooms by...

As the two walked into the sunset... unknown to the fact that they themselves look like another picture perfect couple...
