Suyash and Parvati found a peaceful spot to sit together on the concrete wall that bordered Marine Drive beach. The rhythmic sound of waves crashing against the jagged stones below provided a soothing backdrop, while the gleeful laughter of carefree children and the chatter of passersby filled their hearts with joy.As Suyash glanced at Parvati, he couldn't help but smile seeing her peacefully admiring the vast ocean while enjoying her steaming ear of boiled corn. Her eyes sparkled with the beauty surrounding them, finding solace in the simple pleasure of the moment. It seemed as if the worries of life beyond the beach had melted away, leaving her in a state of pure contentment.

Parvati turned towards him, curiosity and surprise flickering in her eyes.He reached for her hand, feeling the warmth of her skin calming him. “There’s something I’ve been wanting to ask you…” Suyash said, looking into her eyes. And then, he finally asked, “will you marry me?”
