Rishi's pov
One week after the wedding
After the wedding I tried to meet her but didn't get a chance.  I searched for her in the insta but didn't get her I'd.  I am really missing her. I want to spend some time with her. So I can propose to her. Yes I'm planning to propose to her. But how to contact her. Did hamsa have her number. Let me ask her.
"Hey lil devil"
"Hii broo"
"Actually I want samanvi's number"
"Okay I will give her number but I want a return gift."
"Okay deal" Then I cut the call. She messeged the number. Now I am on the cloud nine.
I messeged her

Their conversation:
Hii samanvi I am rishi. (Rishi)
Hey rishi. How did u get my number.(samanvi)
I have my ways(r)
Ohh I know ur ways. Hamsa gave u the number right. (S)
Haa but I asked her. (R)
Hmm then. (S)
Actually I want to ask u something (r)
Haa tell me what? (S)
Nothing leave(r)
🙄🙄(s)
Then anything special(r)
Nothing, and I know u wanted to ask me something don't hesitate. I will not mind"(s)
Do have any boyfriend (r)
Noooo(s)
😇😊okay (r)
Hmm(s)
Then we texted about her college life she is preparing for her neet pg exam. So I gave her some tips. Like this we both started to chat. After 2months today is her graduation day and I am going to confess my love.

"Hii samanvi" After 5 mins she replied
"Haa rishi what's up"
"Nothing much how is ur preparation for today"
"All good"(s)
" nice,  I want to tell you something "(r)
" 👍"(s)
" I love u❤"(r)
"Is it a joke right u love me as a friend"(s)
" Noo, it is not a joke and I love u as a man loves a woman. Is it clear to u. Take ur time to give me a answer. And don't take too much time I can't wait" After this she didn't reply. 

Now I am regretting my confession. What if she ignores me. Ohhh why the fuck I proposed her today. After this I got ready and leave for her convocation. It is a surprise to her. I went to her college. Dean and staff welcomed me. Because I am here to represent our hospital regarding the tieup done between her college and hospital which I am working.
On my way to the auditorium my eyes searched for her. Finally I got a chance to see her. She was with her friends clicking the photos. She was looking like angel in saree. We entered the auditorium and sat in the front row. After the function start I am invited to the stage. I went and sat there. She was sitting in the middle row Continuously speaking with her friends. Her parents are also there.  I was the chief guest of today's programme so the principal gave my intro speech after hearing my name She moved her eyes towards stage and shocked by seeing me. Then I gave my speech. After that award ceremony she got university 1st rank in 2 aubjects and overall 8th rank and also best outgoing student of the batch. I really felt happy for her. After this cultural programs are done. Principal sir called her introduced her to me "dr.rishi she is dr. Samanvi best student of our college till date" For this she smiled "actually sir I know her she is my relative" I replied with a proud smile
"Ohh it's great" He replied and leave from their
"Congratulations saanu"
"Thank you so much" She smiled
"What did u think about my confession" I asked
"Actually rishi I need time" She replied with blush. Looking cute while blushing.
"Oh okayy and let me meet your parents"she nodded and take me to her parents. After speaking with her parents. I leave from their.

Saanu's pov
After the graduation ceremony appa, amma, went to sowmya akka's home. After some time me and kriti leave for our pg. After freshning I went to bed but my sleep was far. Continuously rishics words are making me think. I can't accept his proposal easily because my parents will not accept the love marriage and I have my neet pg exams. It is really scary while deciding something. Rishi is a good guy, cares about me, respects everyone, intelligent, smart. Exactly like a man from novel. The man whom I am waiting for. But it is difficult to accept his proposal.

After his confession we both started to speak more. I tried to understand him. I want to give him a chance. But I am afraid of love and relationships.  Already I have a bitter experience. Now I can't afford love,  tension and all. I have dreams to achieve. My family needs my support. After the retirement of my father our economic condition is really bad. Samarth is helping my parents. But  my master degree college fees in private is 12 lakhs per year. So I have to get a seat in govt college. I have to focus on my studies not on rishi. But I can't avoid him also. What to do?
I will say yes. I know he will understand my problem and give me some time clear exam and do my masters. It will take some 3 to 4 years after that we can tell our parents.   Somehow I will convince appa and amma. They both like rishi. And rishi also doesn't disturb me with my studies.  Yeah this is the right decision. But when where and how to say him. Let me plan a surprise for him.
Finally I am going to say I love to rishi.
