PERFECT FOR ME

CHAPTER 9 - Destiny

It was Christmas Eve. I reached the location we decided and I started waiting for everyone, but I was thinking about Kaira. I texted her to reach quickly and then I called Kabir,
Vihan : Is everything going well?
Kabir : Yes, I am at Aisha's apartment.
Vihan : Okay. And listen, try to make conversation a bit romantic.
Kabir : Okay. She is coming. I'll talk to you later. Bye.
Vihan : Bye.

After this conversation, I opened up my phone's gallery and started looking at some pictures of Kaira. When I was looking at her, I heard a voice, "Looking at my eyes?"

Kaira was there. I panicked. "No No... Actually I was... Yes I was looking into your eyes.", I said. "You really like my eyes.", She said.
"No."
"Are you serious?", She said in a confused tone.
"I mean yeah I like your eyes but I also like your cute nose, your little hands, your adorable smile, your hair, your behaviour, your nature and the most important, your presence in my life."
"I am sorry Vihan."
"Oh, I was waiting for that only."
"Don't tease me Vihan. I am sorry for not picking up your calls and replying to your messages."
"Don't worry. I am glad to know that you are fine."
"Vihan I have to tell you something."
"Yes, go on."
"Do you remember the day we were listening to music together?"
"Yes, I do remember."
"And I told you that I have an important meeting the next day."
"Yeah. So?"
"So, actually...."

"Hey Kaira.", Said Aisha. Aisha and Kabir arrived. "Where is Manish?"
"Oh, he is coming. Have a seat.", I replied.

Finally Manish arrived and he gave Aisha that page.
"What is this Manish?"
"Have a look.", Manish said.

She started reading,

Hi Aisha,
I am Kabir. I have written this for you and I'll be very honest in saying this to you. I love you Aisha. The moment I broke up with you, was very tensed and I took my decision very quickly. But since that day, I can't remember a day I haven't think about you or I haven't missed you. I still remember those beautiful moments we spent together in our college time. It has been 4 years since we last spent some good time together. You still come in my dreams, the dreams that I think should never end. In this realistic world, I want you to enter the world of my imagination in which we are together and there's no one to bother us. The day when I met you after 4 years, was completely unexpected for me. I never thought that we would meet again ever. But destiny wants us to be together. So, Aisha think a hundred times before answering and look at me,

Aisha looked at Kabir,

"Will you marry me, Aisha?"
"Yes. Kabir. I love you Kabir. I love you so much.", She said and started crying happily. They both hugged each other. But I was wondering that whether Manish had written all this? I can't believe it.

I was thinking that what would have happened if it was me who proposed Kaira.

I looked at Kaira and she was clapping. But she was looking very tensed about something too. I whispered in her ear, "Is everything alright?"
"Yes.", She replied.

We all celebrated Christmas Eve together. After the celebration, when everyone left, I asked Kaira, "Would you like go on a walk?"
"No, I am okay."

I hold her hands and said, "Look at me Kaira." She wasn't looking at me. I said once more, "Look at me Kaira." and pulled her chin up towards me.

"You can tell me what's going on. I have never seen you like this before. Do you remember? You said that you chose me, so that I'll take care of you. So tell me."

She hugged me and started crying.

"Vihan. I am sorry.", She said and ran away. I followed her.
"Kaira listen... Stop Kaira please."

She stopped and came towards me and said softly, "I'll text you and please don't follow me now."

She took a taxi and left. I was standing there and wasn't able to do anything. I went home and started waiting for her message.
