"So Jalebi, we're finally here. Don't you think it's like a dream?" asked Raj.
"If this is a dream, I pray that I may never wake up from this, Jamun," replied Pooja. "I just love you too much."
Raj smiled and nuzzled at her neck, kissing her gently.
"Do you remember when we first met?" she asked. "I was such an idiot, being afraid of a stupid cockroach!"
"If someone told a fourteen year old me that I'd marry that idiot one day, I would've never believed them."
She nudged him playfully on the chest. "Raj, in these four years, has there been anything that you have hidden from me?"
It struck him hard. He could never hide anything from her.
"I do have something to tell you, Pooja. But it's something related to Mihir."
"What's with him? And if he has entrusted you with a secret, you can't tell it even to me!"
"I know, but if I hide this truth from you, then that's wrong too. When we started dating in college, I promised you that I'll never lie to you."
"Fine. Tell me."
"Pooja, Mihir and Hero are actually the same person."
His bride was shocked. "Do you mean that Mihir bro is the vigilante?"
Raj nodded. "I figured this out a week ago, and he made me swear not to reveal this to anyone. But if I hide it from you, then that is injustice to our love."
Pooja understood the matter quickly. "He always tells me that he wants no child to go through what he faced. I guess that's why he became Hero. He has a golden heart!"
"And because of this Hero persona, his life is indirectly under threat," said Raj.
"I'm glad that you told me this sooner, Raj," she said. "But what about Sunil? He wants to write a book about Hero, and he is my colleague!"
"I have an idea," said Raj, and whispered something into her ears. Pooja chuckled.
"But he loves Sanya," she said. "She'll become his soulmate, and she'll definitely find out one day!"
"She will find out when it is the right time," he replied.
Pooja yawned and snuggled up to his bare chest. She was clearly drowsy from all the hype around the wedding.
"Goodnight Jalebi," said Raj, before dozing off.
"Goodnight Jamun."
Well, as they say, soulmates don't, and never keep any secrets!
