I was beat, Kaira wasn't even picking up my calls or texts, and her house was dark and locked. Even Aman and Krish didn't know where the girls were, Aisha too were rejecting my calls.
And the best part, I don't even know what I did to fuck up this badly. I am soo done with life and this grumpy woman. I entered my house, Maa, Bhabhi, Bhai in the living room, playing with the baby boy.
"Misha your Chachu is here." Bhabhi shouted laughing.
"She is forever going to be Chachu's girl." Bhai said, and I plopped down beside him.
"What happened beta, you look sad?" Maa asked me.
"I am sad. Kaira isn't picking up my calls, or even messages. Neither is Avni or Aisha. What did I do now?" I said throwing my hands dramatically in the air.
"Chachuuu." Misha came running, with a red roses bouquet?
"Where did you get that now?" I asked, as she forwarded it to me.
"Uh uh, you might have some guests, follow the lead." Bhabhi said, and I took out the notecard from the bouquet.
"Dear Mr. Malhotra,
I found myself in you.
P.S. follow the flower traced path."
A small smile grew on my lips reading Kaira's handwriting. Misha held my hand, and led me out in the backyard, decorated with lights and flowers all the way. As I made my way through the path, I saw a pretty lady, standing their at the end of the track, near the artificial pond.
I was twelve feet away from her, when she showed a stop sign and gestured me to look down. I looked down and there were seven letter, each in distance of 1 foot.
I bent and picked out the first one.
"I promise, that I will always buy you good food and wine.
P.S If you accept my promises move forward." I smiled and stepped forward and picked up second one.
"I promise never to scare you again with my boxing practice, but yeah if anyone ever touches you, they are dying." A wide grin spread across my face, remembering the time she punched that bag to scare me. Once again I stepped forward.
"I promise to deal with all your tantrums and dramas, even in the middle of the night, though I like my sleep very much, toh I will advise you not to disturb it, of course." I shook my head at her promise, and stepped forward.
"I promise to never avoid you from now on. If there is a dispute, we will talk and settle it. And, I will tell you everything, but you should do the same too." I nodded looking at her and took another step forward.
"I promise to never interrupt your book haul with Aisha, and will never doubt you. I trust you with my life, and I want you to do the same." Of course, I already do.
"I promise to always be by your side, and you will never face anything alone." Now there were tears in my eyes, as I looked at her, standing just four feet away.
I finally picked up the last one, "Will you be my food partner for life, Mr. Malhotra?"
A warm oozing feeling developing my chest and tears forming in my eyes. This is first time someone was doing this for me. It's always the other way around.
I quickly waled towards her, and she went on her knees.
"Will you be mine?" She asked looking at me. I dropped on my knees in front on her too.
"Yes, a million times yes baby." I said and kissed her hard, she wrapped her arms around my neck and the fireworks went off, both side at a distance, small ones.
"Woooohooooooo." Cheers erupted from around us, but I was more immersed in Kaira. She hugged me as if I was the thread holding her together, and I kissed her forehead with the promise of my own, not to let this fiery soul suffer more than she already had.
My phone started ringing, and I had a terrific idea. I immediately took it out and sent a message. Then I went on acting like something terrible had happened while reading the message.
"Actually, Kaira, I don't think I can..." I started saying taking a step back at a time, everyone stopped and started looking at me perplexed. The song started in the background, and the look on Kiara's face told me that I was doing a grave mistake. She was on verge of crying.
"I don't think I can live without you too. Please come to me, my grumpy woman." I shouted and spread my arms like Sharukh Khan, because she is one big fan of him. Kaira wiped her tears and ran towards me, and in my arms.
I picked her up and twirled her around three to four times, while she showered feather kisses on my face laughing.
"I swear I will kill you one day for all your pranks and drama." She said laughing.
"How could you think that I will leave you? I am all yours, my sweet grumpy woman. Your thoughts live rent free in my head and your memories are the constant source of smile that dances on my lips. How can I ever leave the battery of my life, haan?" I said kissing her, and everyone again started cheering.
We all were settled into the dinning table now.
"Now for my surprise, we got the key of the house, and it is completed." Avni said grinning.
Aisha whistled, making everyone laugh.
"And and, the wedding date has been finalized, one month from now on." Aman added, kissing Avni's hand, which he was holding.
"My friends are growing up." Aisha said wiping her fake tears.
"Congratulations beta." Maa said to both of them.
"We are going to a full fat Indian wedding." Bhabhi cheered, while Bhai gave her side eye.
Aisha, Avni, Krish and Aman left after I promised them that I will drop back Kaira safety home, Aisha was the most tough one to make up to, but she gave permission anyway. All others laughing while she was lecturing me.
I took Kaira's hand and led her to my room, my first intention was to give her a tour, but that later changed, and we both were on bed pretty soon. How can I resist when she looks so tempting today, white short knee length dress, that too sleeveless. Her toned milky legs showing off.
This was the best day and night of my life. I have everything a man can ever demand for, and I refuse to let go of anything, I am greedy for my woman.
