2 Months Later

For the last two months, the relationship between Harsh and Samaira had bloomed well. Both of them were more comfortable with each other and Samaira was glowing from happiness. She felt more cheerful and happiness was seen in her eyes. Harsh on the hand was waiting for the day he marries Samaira. He was also starting to feel possessive about Samaira but he made sure to keep the possessiveness in check. He felt happy and joyful thinking he is getting a girl who understands him well and respects his thoughts and decisions. Harsh decided to let Samaira know about his feelings and he was thinking of ways to tell her.

Harsh left Samaira a text. Samaira opened her phone and she was confused looking at the text. She re-read the text a few times and understood that Harsh was hinting at the restaurant his family saw her for the first time. Samaira texted him back and Harsh texted Samaira to meet him at the restaurant over the weekend. She noticed his texting pattern was getting weird for a few days.

On that weekend, Samaira got ready for her date with Harsh and left for the restaurant. She noticed Harsh was being a little weird and she thought of asking him. After parking her car, she walked in and told the host "Hey. Is there a reservation under the name Harsh and Samaira here?" The host checked the reservation and said "Yes. This way please. The other person is already here and waiting for you" Sam followed the host and saw Harsh. He smiled at her and gave her a bunch of colourful roses. Sam smiled and took the roses from him. After sitting, she asked "You never got me flowers before. What happened tonight? Flowers out of nowhere?" Harsh said "Actually the second time. Remember I got you flowers when I first came to your house." Sam smiled and said "But, that was when you came with family. Not when we both went out together. This is the first time" Harsh held her hands and said "I just felt like it". Sam nodded and they both started talking.

After placing their food order, Samaira asked "Harsh, I wanted to ask you something." Harsh playfully said "Shoot your questions". Sam said "You've been behaving a bit weird recently for the past month or so. Is everything ok? Do you want to share anything with me?" Harsh said "Me?Weird? What are you talking about?" Samaira said "You give me puzzle texts and riddles at times. Which you never did before. I mean if that's how you normally text people then I am honestly fine with it. But it just was weird to me. Wait? Was it one of those tiktok text pranks or something?" Harsh laughed and said "No. I am not on tiktok. And no, that is not how I text regularly and the reason is well.." and the waiter came with their order.

Harsh glared at the waiter for ruining his moment but decided to tell Samaira. They started eating their dinner and after when the waiter cleared their tables, he asked Harsh and Samaira "Any desserts for you both?" Sam said she was full and Harsh ordered a pistachio cake and said to the waiter "Please take your time. We are not in rush" Sam looked at Harsh in a weird way. Harsh looked at Samaira and said "I didn't finish what I was about to say earlier and he was disturbing us time and again" Sam remembered he was telling her something before and said "Yeah, you were saying something right" Harsh said "Yeah. I wanted to tell to you about my feelings. I wanted to tell you earlier too but I wasn't sure and now I am sure." Sam frowned as Harsh looked serious and said "Um....Ok.." and the waiter came with their desserts. Sam was quiet and Harsh decided to tell her after leaving the restaurant. 

After leaving the restaurant, Harsh said "Sam. Leave your car here. I want to take you somewhere with me. We will come back here. You can take your car then" Samaira agreed and went with Harsh. Harsh took her to a beach closely which was a 15 minute drive. Both of them were quiet the entire ride. Samaira's head was swarmed with different thoughts. She felt that he vaguely spoke about his feelings. She kept fidgeting with her scarf overthinking the worst. Harsh opened the door for her and she got down from the car.

He held her hands like he usually does and they both started walking. Harsh saw the confusion in Samaira's face which was visible and said "You know Sam. I never spoke about my past to you. But, I guess I should now." Sam was looking down and listening to his words carefully and he continued "I dated someone in the past around 6 years back. I have never felt like this in that. I thought it was normal and I didn't care a lot or neither did I put much effort in it. But, with you, it's different. Probably because I am more committed with ours than I was in my previous relationship but what I am trying to say is I like how it is with us. In a short span of time, you have become an important part of my life. I never thought I would get an arranged marriage or that I will fall for someone within 6 months of getting to know them." Sam looked at him and confusion was still visible in her face. 

Harsh continued "To answer your questions from the restaurant, the reason why I sent you those puzzled and riddle texts were because I wanted to let you know that I have fallen in love with you. If you read those texts, you will understand that at the start of every text, the first letter gave you the clue that I love you." Sams eyes widened at his confession, she stopped walking. She looked at Harsh and said "You love me?" Harsh said "Any doubt?" Sam said "You are sure right? I mean this is not because we are bound to get married to each other and it is not because of that or anything?" Harsh said "Samaira, I love you because of the way you are with me, not because we are supposed to get married. I don't know how to say this but I actually love you regardless of us getting married in 2 months. In fact, I have been wanting to tell this for the longest time but I decided that tonight, you should know what I feel. And what I feel is I love you. " Samaira said "You will never break my heart ?" Harsh said "I promise. I will never break your heart." Samaira hugged Harsh tightly and said "I love you too and please don't confuse me like this." She stopped herself from crying and quickly wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. Harsh tightened his hold on her and said "You will have to tolerate me for your entire life. I can be very annoying" Samaira laughed and said "Deal. And I can be dramatic too" Harsh laughed and said "Deal".

Samaira broke the hug and said "Let's go back. It's kinda cold here". Harsh pulled her closer to him and looked at her with love filled eyes. He cupped her cheeks and kissed her forehead. Harsh said "Thanks for loving me Samaira" Samaira hugged him again and said "Thanks for making me love you" and they both left to the restaurant. 

Samaira went to her car and waved her hands at Harsh. After he left, Samaira texted her friends and drove back home. After changing her clothes, she called her friends and filled them up with everything that happened on that night. Samaira was happy and she went to bed with a huge smile on her face. She remembered his words and started reading his texts. True to his words, the start of his every puzzled texts first letter gave her the clue. She smiled and thought "Very cheesy but I guess I like his cheesy ways". Harsh texted her at the same time. She smiled at his text and replied back.

Harsh and Samaira are in love with each other. How was their confession? And most importantly, how was this chapter as a whole? Let me know in the comments. And please don't forget to vote and support. Thanks and much love ❤️
