UNDYING DEVOTION

CHAPTER 25 | Surprises

Author's POV

The sunlight peeked through the sheer curtains of the room, disturbing Meera's peaceful sleep.

She fluttered her eyes open with a yawn, only to see it was 7 AM. Too early to wake up for a holiday. Nevertheless, she climbed down the bed and went to the washroom.

As she came out of the room, now all freshened up and wearing a biege top and shorts, she decided to make some 'Chai'.

But the doorbell broke the chain of her thoughts and she approached the door with a pissed look.

She hated early morning visitors.

Huffing, she opened the door, not before plastering a small smile on her face. But when the door opened, she was left dumbstruck to see two women standing there, one holding a bucket of flower another holding a bag.

What's this now? Don't tell me I have some impromptu shoot!

"Good morning ma'am, This is Asmita, Raghbir sir sent these for you.", She told handing her the bokeh.
Meera had still not recovered from the shock that the other girl who introduced herself as Karishma asked her, "Ma'am, where to keep this bag?"

"Whats in there?", Meera asked, curiously, her brows still forming a frown.

"We don't know madam, we were just asked to deliver it to you.", she nodded and they smiled. Meera asked them to give her the bags. And soon they left, leaving Meera with her thoughts and questions.

She opened the bag to see a beautiful dress, with a set of jewelry and matched heels. There was a small note attached to the bag pack, "Wear it tonight. A small gift for you - Yours, R"

She blushed at the yours.

God! It was indeed the best start of the day..!

Searching for her phone, she unlocked it and opened the texts application to send Raghbir a text. But to her surprise, he already had texted her.

"Good Morning, Meera. I hope you liked the gifts and the flowers. I have to get going for some work right now, see you at night, my driver will be there to receive you at sharp 7, be ready"

She could feel her cheeks heating up for constantly blushing. And she couldn't help but giggle. This man knew just how to make her happy.

You have gone nuts meera!!

She indeed had, gone nuts for Raghbir.

The day felt like a decade for Meera. She had never been as excited for anything as she felt for the night.

But alas! It was still 2 of the afternoon, and she couodnt help but lay down liesurely.

Her heart fluttered when her phone buzzed.

Must be him!!

But damn!!!! Her face fell. It was her mother

Whats wrong with your meera?? It's your mother. You should be happier!!

She shook her head and picked the call. Her lips formed a Cresent when she heard her mother speak.

"Hello Mummy! Kaisi ho?", She asked, her voice excited.

"mai bilkul theek, tu kaisi hai puttar? Bari khush lagrahi!", She asked.

"Kidhr? Nehi toh.. Mai toh humesha khush hi rehti hu!",Meera smiled when she heard her mother chuckle

"Aj kuch Baat toh jarur hogi", She teased making meera blush as her thoughts travelled to Raghbir.

She continued to talk to her mother and then her father. And by the time they cut the call, it was almost 3.
