The Different Mahabharata

it was her

Yash pov

"Why her?" Rukmini asks me.
"Why anyone else when she exists?"

Niyati pov

"Will you marry me?"
The question echoes around, everyone looking towards me in shock.

And Yash, he stood there, too stunned to speak.

"What are you saying, Niyati?" Yash says, walking towards me, "Do you know what you are saying? Do you realize what you're saying?" he stutters.

Yash stuttering made me smile. The man, who played with words like it was the only thing he knew, stuttered because of something I said.

"I do realize and know what I'm saying Yash. I think before I speak. I know I'm asking you to marry me, so will you? Marry me, that is?" I swallow before getting on one knee with my hand out asking for his, awaiting his answer.

I don't know what I was doing. I don't know why I got on one knee and held out my hand. All I knew is that I wanted his hand in mine.

I wanted him to be with me, forever and ever.

He gets on his knee, but still hasn't given me his hand.

"You couldn't have done this in private?" he whispers, his eyes caressing my face as if he was seeing it for the last time.

"The time was right." I answer back, smiling. "And we have all the time in the world. Now quit this talk and tell me that you'll marry me." I demanded.

"Yes ma'am." he whispers. "I will marry you. And I love you, my priye, I always have and always will. Remember that."

"Yes ma'am." I whisper. "I will marry you. And I love you, my priye, I always have and always will. Remember that."

She hugs me.

"The first time I met you, it wasn't love at first sight. My love for you formed gradually. I fell for your personality, your voice, your hair, your humor, your eyes, the way you talked, the way your morpankh flows with the wind just how your music flows through your flute which only I can hear, the way you smile.

I didn't want to fall in love. I actually have been scared of falling in love. You make me feel like I'm on top of the world, and that's a very long way to fall. But you started being you and I now know that I can trust you with my heart. Gradually, I learnt that it was you I was waiting for. You can handle me, understand me, love me, and I knew you were exactly what I was looking for. Because it's you, you with that smile and words of yours that stole my heart." she says, her fingers caressing my face, and my morpankh.

She said that in my ear, not wanting anyone to hear.
So no one did.

Just as my priye wishes.

I hugged her again, not wanting to let her go away from me again. I sniffed and the fragrance of orchids hit my nose.

It was her.
It always will be.
No matter what.

Niyati pov

He had eyes like rain,
And hair like waves,
And a soul as vast as deep as the ocean,
And I guess, I didn't mind drowning in them.

This is a short chapter.
Quite small.
But this needed to end here.

So how did you find this tiny chaoter where they're all lovey-dovey??
