Jahanvi - Dev's commoner queen [Completed✓]

5 ~ First call

It wasn't easy for me, to keep my feelings suppressed for such a long time. It's true, I fell for her the very first time I saw her, along with her father walking in our garden. She was holding his hand with her little hands. I was 16 then. I had no idea that I would feel this attracted to her. I thought it was mere infatuation, as my adolescence was at its peak, but no, it grew more and more with time.

With time, as she grew into a beautiful woman. A perfect figure women could have. Perfect black long hairs. Perfect curves. Perfect eyelashes. Perfect glossy lips. A smile so pure, that it could heal any heart.

She became friends with my sister, Devishi. I thought maybe their friendship will not last long, but even today, they are best friends, which was also unexpected for me.

It was a week ago. The festival of Gangaur. She was wearing such a beautiful pink dress which was making her look more beautiful. That was the day I wasn't able to stop myself from starting our first conversation. Before that, I had never tried to talk with her or even come closer to her.

It's not like I didn't wanted to, but it was for our best, for everyone's best.

This was taught to me by my mother when I was leaving abroad for my higher studies, 3 year course, that we should do what's best everyone, not just for us. I had decided that I'll never approach her. That I will never come closer to her. Not at any cost. I'll try to detach myself from my own feelings towards her. But I wasn't able to. When I returned back to India after completing my course, and saw her for the first time again, it felt like, I had never left India. I was here the entire time. With her. Feeling her presence around me.

I touched her for the first time and it literally gave me goosebumps all over my body. And when I looked into her eyes, the doubt that I had in my mind got confirmed. Yes, she feels for me too. The way she looks into my eyes tells it all. Every time our gazes locked with each other, it was a moment of peace.

And then the next day, when my sisters started talking about my wedding plans, it was clearly visible in her eyes that she was getting hurt. If it would have been just me in the room, I would have comforted her, but I chose to stay silent because I didn't wanted them to doubt us. Also, Devishi had never talked to me related to her, so that was very clear for me that despite of being best friends, Jahanvi respected to keep her feeling just to herself and Devishi knows nothing about us.

And when Krishiv, took the name of princess Mitali, I saw horrified expression on her face. I saw how her expressions changed. Her eyes were welling up, but it didn't go unnoticed by me. She immediately stood up from her place and whispered something in my sisters ear. But before she could move out, I stood up from my place and made my way towards outside.

And then, everything happened. The moment when I confessed my feelings towards her. The moment when she confessed her feelings towards me. Even, I kissed on her forehead, we were so close that I wasn't able to stop myself. Although in better circumstances, if she wouldn't have been crying, I would have wanted this moment to be a little romantic, but that kiss literally gave peace to my burning heart and it was purely meant to comfort her.  We hugged each other for the first time and it felt like the best feeling in this world.
