Tejasswi woke up in the middle of the night.

She was buried under the weight of the guy she has been dating since few weeks. She tried to shift his weight without waking him up.

"What are you doing Tejasswi?"

Karan asked in his sleepy voice while pulling her close, nuzzling his nose in the crook of her neck.

"Nothing ! Just couldn't sleep Karan."

He grazed his fingers in her hair playfully and asked "Tell me what are you thinking sweety?"

"Just emotional about thinking that we were strangers back then at that beach. If someone would have told me that this is the future, i would have laughed. Is it a mere coincidence or destiny that we found each other?" Tejasswi buried her face in his chest, with her hand tracing his clavicle.

Karan pulled her up onto his chest. He grasped her hair, tilted her chin and placed a light peck on her lips softly. The kiss which usually make you weak in your knees. The kiss which gives you peace.

"It's our destiny baby." Karan replied and saw a soul stirring smile on Tejasswi's face.

Both slept in each other arms with nothing but peace and contentment.

Karan entered the kitchen next morning and was mesmerized to see the view in front of him.

Tejasswi was dancing to the tunes of the song in her airpods wearing his shirt.

She was preparing breakfast while he hugged her from behind and placed a series of kisses on her cheek.

He whispered in her ear, " I like this view. "

She turned around and placed her hands around his neck, "View as in your clothes and barefoot but not pregnant as they say." She laughed with the wierd analogy.

"Not yet baby." Karan smiled shyly.
He went behind the slab and sat on the stool admiring his girl in his clothes .

Tejasswi was surprised to hear that he wanted kids.

"I never knew you wanted kids Karan."

He smiled and muttered, "I would love to have a little baby girl one day."

.....................................................................................................

Karan and Tejasswi were to attend an charity event tonight.

The charity was close to Karan's heart and it would be their first event together.

Karan received a call from his stylist. He hanged up his phone and looked up in her direction.

"Tejasswi, my stylist will call you. She has kept aside some dresses for you for tonight." Karan muttered.

Tejasswi was annoyed to see that why does he expect her to wear something his stylist sent.
Doesn't he like her for who she is really and expect her to adapt to his lifestyle?

"But I have my own clothes Karan. I am extremely sufficient to arrange on my own. I don't need your stylist to doll me up for an event. " She said to him clearly pissed.

"She has already selected some dresses for you Teju. What's the harm in it if you would wear something she sent over?" Karan could not understand her resistance just for a dress.
