" why the hell are you so nervous it's like you asking him to marry her?"

"shut up will you"

kaar nervously rang the doorbell, today was going to be one of the most nerve-wrecking days of his life, for a cold-hearted businessman he wasn't used to being like this, but since he knew this was something he had to show emotion for which was not his strongest point , made his heart pound.

"kaar? come in hun" he made his way to Mr di costa's office finding the man already waiting for him.

"sit son" kaar nodded and placed himself on the chair palms already sweaty

"is it okay for aunt to stay here since I need to talk to both of you'll" both of them gave him quizzical looks but agreed.

" so uncle today I come here as kaar and not the businessman you know, please hear me out fully before you say nothing" he motioned kaar to carry on

"I have grown up in front of you and I know how close you and dad are. I am not sure if you have noticed that I had become distant with Kira after she came of age I started seeing her for the woman she was, and knowing that I did not want you and dad's friendship to end cause of a mere crush, but boy was I wrong the pull was too strong and I could not deny it anymore, I can't say I love her as yet because I know that won't make sense but at the same time I can't seem to see her with anyone else and Kirti put that into perspective for me, please don't think that the contract was way to make you obligated to us I might be a cold businessman but I will never mix family and business, so I was hoping you could give me your blessings to date her, I will accept whatever faith you deal for me"

"NO, THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS" kaar flinched and his stomach sank he felt himself whimper

"mate"

"I know buddy but we have to respect her dad"

"Rajeshakar? you swine, you won the damn bet" with that Mr. Di Costa slammed the phone down

"sorry son I hate losing, your dad and I took a bet as to when you would confess your feelings to my daughter I told him next month, and he said after the trip, of course, you have my blessings I know exactly how you feel but you have earned my respect the mere fact that you put my friendship with your father first showed me the type of man you are"

kaar smiled " thank you uncle" he was offered to stay for lunch but he had something planned for his angel and he could not wait to see her reaction.

kaar: hey, I am fetching you at 6

                                                                                                                                    are we going?

kaar: you ask too many questions

unsure about what was going on she phoned her mum

" mum? yeah I am fine. what? yeah, he did are you'll okay with it? oh okay then"

Kira was shocked excited and confused

"I have a good feeling"

"me to Athena, me too". a small smile graced her lips as she continued with her work.
