"What?" Rohan startled waspishly. Others stared inquiringly unable to process their response. "Ab kya problem hai?" Rohan limped towards TaaRey. TaaRey exchanged a glance of understanding. "Agar hume ye sagaai karni hai, toh tum hume ek promise dena hoga" Taani ordered. Rey nodded in support of Taani. Rohan did understood what they were up to, but he wasn't sure to accept it. "Mein janta hun ki tum dono kya promise chahte ho, but please don't make it difficult to me. I'll never be able to promise that" Rohan gabbled. "U have to, Rohan" Taani stepped closer to him. "Please........ Taani. U can't do that to me" Rohan pleaded in forlorn voice glancing at Rey often. "But........." Taani's further sentence was axed when Rey held her wrist. He twiddled his head defiantly stopping her perseverance. He looked at his brother arching a slight empathetic smile. Rohan blinked brandishing a 'Thank-U' smile. "I think we shouldn't do this" Rey implored to Taani. She frowned at his sudden transformation. "Wooooooo....... Would u care to tell us what's happening here?" Swayam interrupted making all jump. "It's nothing. They r just crazy" Rohan sneered. "Let's get on to work" He presumed his announcement leaving d shell-shocked audience guests and family members including TaaRey.

The engagement ceremony had started. Swayam handed a beautiful gold ring to Taani while Rajveer gave scintillating diamond ring to Rey. At an auspicious omen, d mellifluous melody ringed around d halls as Rey slipped d ring to Taani's middle finger indicating his love connecting to her heart directly through d leading mid-finger nerves. Next, Taani did d same. A big round of tumultuous applause thundered sprinkling d blesses of d summoned well-wishers. TaaRey smiled earnestly at each other savoring d ecstasy of the new bound relationship. Everyone wished them. Rohan pulled both into a friendly hug congratulating them. Rajveer's eyes glistened in combustion of happy and sadness. He gaped at Rohan feeling proud of him. "Congratulations Mrs. Rey Singhania" Rey squeezed Taani's hand whispering huskily in her ear. She turned scarlet flushing in d tease of him.

Taani bathed in a pleasant tranquil night-shower. She changed into a blue satin night gown which barely covered her thighs, also exposed maximum of d smooth flesh skin on her back. She dried her dampened hairs with a dryer. Now, she stood in front of d mirror combing d curls. She smiled seeing d reflection of d engagement ring clasped safely in her finger. Miraculously, everything had fallen into right places.

Rohan in his room was packing d luggage. He thrust his wardrobe tidily into a suitcase. All d men-cosmetics were placed orderly in adjacent pouches. He gathered some of his favorite collections of novels to put it in d bag. Suddenly a book fell on d ground. It was titled as "THE NOTEBOOK – NICHOLAS SPARKS'. He stooped n collected it steeping back into one of d wonderful memory lane.

"Kya pad rahi hai, Taani" Rohan sat beside her on a deserted bench at college campus, trying to get her attention. But she didn't reply. Her face was completely buried in d book. She loved reading Love Stories, may it be happy-endings bringing a smile on her face or d beauteous emotional tragedies affecting her to shed d sump of water. She did everything with a passion in her heart. Among everything, it was d one most quality he loved about her. "Taani. Taaaaaaniiii........" He drawled. But she didn't utter a single word in response. At d end of d book, when she landed it down, d tears flowed cautiously. Rohan wasn't stunned because he was aware of d fact of d book belonging to second category of his description. He was smiling instead of consoling her. "What?" She furrowed her brow at his mocking mischief. "Don't u dare to smile on me" She wiped d tears on her sleeve like a young child. "U r incredible, Taani" He pulled a tissue from d bag n kept on her lap. She beamed slightly unfolding d tissue to wipe her sullen face. "U know what? U should read this book. Probably, u'll get to know y I cried" She thumped d book on his lap n waggled away. He kept staring at d book. Never in his life, he had read any Love Stories. He was only a crazy bugger of Thriller and Suspense adventures. But just to keep her sentence he read it.
