Anirudh woke up one morning to the sight of Bondita sleeping peacefully beside him.... her arm draped over his chest as she hugged him tightly.....He couldn't help but admire her in that moment...her serene expression and the way her hair spread out in a wild halo around her head...She looked so peaceful...so innocent....and Anirudh couldn't help but feel a surge of love for her welling up inside him....
Over time...their relationship had blossomed into something deeper.... something more meaningful....Anirudh had come to realize that he had fallen in love with her, but he had never been able to confess his feelings to her....He was scared of what she might say....scared of the possibility that she might not feel the same way about him.....As Anirudh lay there....watching Bondita sleep, he found himself torn..... Should he take the risk and tell her how he felt....or should he keep his feelings to himself and continue to be just her friend? The thought of Bondita not returning his affections was a painful one, but he couldn't bear the thought of never telling her how much she meant to him.Finally, after much internal debate, Anirudh made up his mind....He would confess his love to Bondita that very day... no matter the consequences...He gently brushed a strand of hair away from her face and leaned in to press a soft kiss to her forehead.....
He gently brushed a strand of hair away from her face and leaned in to press a soft kiss to her forehead. Bondita stirred in her sleep, her eyes fluttering open as she looked up at him with a sleepy smile.
Bon : good morning patibabu....
she murmured, her voice still heavy with sleep....Anirudh felt his heart skip a beat at the sound of her voice, and he took a deep breath before speaking...
Ani : good morning bondita....
She saw their position and blushed....
Bon : kab jaage aap...
Ani : abhi thodi der pehle....acche se neend aayi...
Bon : hmm...8 saalo baad aaj bohot hi acchi neend aayi.
He smiled...
Bon : ab hatiye puja ka waqt ho gaya hai...
Ani : maine kaha pakda hai mishti tumne hi pakad ke rakha hai kabse....
She bites her tongue realising that and quickly got up....
Bon : sorry...
He pulled her...
Bon : patibabu...
Ani : Mujhe bhi aaj saalo baad acchi neend aayi......mera toh mann hi nahi kar raha uthne ka....aao tum bhi so jao...
Bon : patibabu uthiye koi bahana nahi aap tino bhai na ek jaise hai puja ka naam aaya nahi ki duniya bhar ka aalas aa jaata hai....uthiye...
He pouted....
Bon : accha thik hai aisi shakal mat banaiye main naha leti hu tab tak soiye phir uth jaana....
He nodded....

Bondita stepped out of the bathroom wearing a stunning yellow and pink lehenga...her wet hair cascading down her back like a waterfall....The colors of the lehenga complimented her skin tone perfectly....making her look like a radiant moon...
Anirudh...who had been engrossed in reading a file, looked up and his jaw dropped at the sight of Bondita...He had never seen her look more beautiful...more ethereal.....The way her eyes sparkled and her lips curved into a shy smile made his heart skip a beat....
Unable to tear his gaze away from her... Anirudh realized that he was falling for Bondita all over again..... It wasn't just her physical beauty that captivated him...but also her inner strength, her intelligence, and her kindness that made him love her more every day....
