BEWITCHED

Chapter 6th

DAKSH'S POV

I never knew that dates could be this intresting. But I also knew the fact that I enjoyed because it was her.

I've had seen my fair share of beautiful ladies, but she was breathtaking in her red sundress.
She managed to looked simple yet elegant.
She didn't wore anything reveling, neither she throw herself on me nor she acted like she wanted to impress me.

When she said she wanted to have fast food I was so shocked that I was malfunctioning for a minute.
Usually when I was on date I knew that women wanted to show them as a lady, they wanted to dine in fancy restaurants and to honored like queens.

But here she was, a great expectation, a girl who didn't care if she looked like a lady or not, if she was having good impression on me. She was just enjoying herself.

She was just like how dadu had explained her.

We were returning to her home now, it was quarter past nine. Time flew when I was with her.
She was still looking at the flowers with adoration in her eyes.
I guess she liked the flowers.

"I've never received flowers."
She said running a hand throw the tuplis.
I ran my hands over the pocket where I kept the ring aunt asked to give her my only if I like her.
I remember rolling my eyes at the statement, but I think it will be at use now.

I parked the car at her driveway and took big steps to open her side of sedan.
She mumbled a small thanks. She turned to move towards her home, and here I was still standing here thinking how to give her the ring.

"Suno,..."
She turned looking at me with questionable eyes.
Fuck, was it always this hard.
I took out the ring holding it in front of her I continued...

"They said there will be no engagement, so I wanted to give you the ring.
It's not a proper proposal but I hope you accept it. "

I cleared my throat and spoke again.

"I promise, I will make you smile when you when you will feel down, I will kiss your tears away when you will cry, I will hold you when you will be feeling at your lowest.

I will take you out for ice cream when you will have cramps, I will make dinner when you will be tired. I'm not a romantic person Aarna but I will try, I will try to stand up to your expectations.

I know I have many faults, but I hope you can see my good also. And if you won't be able to love me just please take care of my family, I will be happy with that."

Fuck, why did i stutter.

A few minutes passed and she was just standing there still, not moving like she was processing it all.

I should've get on knees atleast, what if she say n-

"I don't have a ring though."
She looked up at me with glossy eyes, rosy cheeks and a small smile, my heart melted at the view.

Unconsciously my hands reached her cheeks, my one hand covering her full face. I ran my thumb over her eyes wiping the drop of a pearl like tears of her.
I made her wear the ring, and it fixed her proper like it was choose whilste keeping her size in mind but then again I bought it when I went to pick dadi from a jewelry shop.
The ring grabbed my attention I just bought it. Guess it found it's owner.

"You can give me a ring whenever you want."
My voice came out as quite as her.

"Can I hug you?"
It was as if my body was waiting to hear it, as soon she asked, I involved her in a tight hug inhaling cinnamon orange scent.
Her body relaxed at my embrace giving me a big relief.

She broke the hug as I didn't have any intention to.
We just stood there looking at each other, my eyes went to her rosebuds lips.
Only if she knew the things I wanted to do with her.

"Go inside Aarna."
Go inside before I do anything you will not like.

She merely nodded, her knuckles turning white from the bouquet she was clutching tightly.
When she was at her door, she turned and waved at me soon disappering inside.

I sat myself in the car, bringing it back to life, driving down the streets straight to the hotel.

I reached my room hopped at the shower cooling myself down from the heat caused by her body. And oh God, the way her body fit with mine.
It's like God melded us for each other.

Draping a towel around my waist I came out of the bathroom. I picked my phone checking the mails that needed to be answered.

Suddenly my phone ringed flashing that dadu was calling me.

So,
His voice was nervous yet excited as if he was getting his results.

Set the date. I'm working, I will talk later.
Be ready we'll be leaving in early morning.

Okay!!!
He literally squealed, dadi's giggles following closely behind him.
The call was cut as soon, making me smile at his excitement.

Shit I forgot to ask for her number.

AARNA'S POV

As soon as I entered the house, I was met with dadu's curious face and a load of questions.

"What do think?"

"How did it go?"

"Was he nice?"

"He didn't misbehave right?"

"Did you two argued?"

"He didn-"

"Calm down dadu."
I said chuckling at his behavior. He was way too excited.

"Everything went well. He was more than nice. No, he didn't misbehave. And why do think we'll argue."

"Well you see, you are always ready to argue."

"Hmm?"
I questioned raising my brows, I mean people do things that make me argue to them, it isn't my fault.

"Oh, leave this all... Should I consider it yes?"
He inquired softly. Afraid I will might decline.

I slowly nodded feeling my cheeks go warm.
His smile was now reaching his eyes, it was as if he will smile a little more his face will split into two.

"Mai-Mai Tilak ko call karta hu."
He ran towards his study barely containg his excitement.

"Bhadai ho, beta."
Laxmi aunty said running her hand throw my hair.
Her lips tucked upwards and her eyes glassy.
She was the only mother figure I had, after my mother's death she was the only one I relied on when having hard time or when I didn't wanted to worry dadu.

I hugged her tightly into a bear hug making her chuckle.
I was happy so happy that it can't be described in words.

Dadu came after making the call.
"He said that a month will be enough to do preparation."

I can see the happiness in his eyes. A month was soon for me, but I didn't wanted to ruin the moment so I just agreed.

I locked the door behind me, jumpinhbin my bed I squealed in my pillow.
My heart was thumbing so hard in my rib cage, like it will broke out any second.

I can still smell him on myself, his sandalwood cologne evolving me. Remembering the hug I was blushing again.
I remembered the proposal again, he didn't get on his knees, neither it was a planned proposal nor it had lighting with balloons but I loved it. I loved the way he proposed me.

'I'm not sure romantic person Aarna, but I will try my best to stand up to your expectations.'

Can a person die from happiness, cause I feel like I'm going die.
And oh lord heavens, the way he called name.
I ran my my finger upon the ring remembering his words.

Oh no, I should've asked for his number.
