Maine tera naam dil rakh diya
Maine tera naam dil rakh diya
Dhadke ga tu mujhme sadaa
Maine tera naam dil rakh diya

Shubh's pov

"First, speak to me" the love of my life burst out badly.

Alright, what should I tell her now?

"Fine, ask." I restrained myself from saying the word 'love' at the end of the sentence because I thought it will make her more angry.

But god I love her so much.

Since the day I have realised this love thing, I become excited at every thought of her.

And just wanna say 'I love you' to her 24/7

"All I want to know is why you did that. Thats it."

Yaar meri jaan please topic change karo na.

"Pehele chai peeoge aap?"

She held her head and then looked around.

"Gala kaatne ka dil karta hai tumhara." she said making an anrgy face.

I laughed.

"You can't kill me. I dare you to try."

Her face resembles even more angry as she raises her hand and from what I interpret she was about to punch me, but I grab her hand and pin her against the wall.

My body very close to hers and one of my hands held her arm above her head.

My body pressed on hers and I was almost breathing on her neck, her fragrance hitting my nostrills. Honey.

"That all you've got?" I whisper while bending down to her ear.

I laugh and I know that my hot breath can be felt on her neck which is what made her shiver.

"You don't even know how to land a proper punch. Your punch felt like a soft pillow and it didn't even leave a mark."

"Really? Do you really want a mark on your pretty face?"

"Try it. Go on I dare you."

I said in challenging tone and got more closer to her. My face almost touching hers and body pressed hard on her against the wall as my grip on her hand becomes tighter.

Aww, she called me pretty. Clearly in love with me.

"Try leaving my hand and then see."

I smile and leave her hand and step back a little and looks her eyes.

"Now I'm ready. Go on. You can try."

Frustrated she says, "why are you doing this!"

"I'm testing how well you throw a punch that's all."

I know she gets more exhausted and frustrated by my reply.

"Take me out of this room!"

With a constant smile on my face, I hold her hand and take her out.

"Where do you wanna go?"

"Why are you irritating me Shubh? At points you behave so softly and listen to everything I say. And when I ask you anything related to the injections you gave me, you change the topic. My head will burst now!"

I sighed and held her hand softly but firmly in mine and took her to the dining room.

Serving her a cup of tea, I seated before her and asked, "do you trust me?"
