When Darkness Falls

Chapter 5

After Rajveer's family left, Kamala and her husband, Ashok, sat in their living room, discussing the unexpected proposal.

"I don't know, Ashok," Kamala said, her brow furrowed. "Rajveer seems like a nice boy, but we know nothing about his family's business dealings."

Ashok nodded thoughtfully. "True, but they seem like a respectable family. And Rajveer is clearly smitten with Rukmini."

Kamala sighed. "I just want what's best for our daughter. But I'm not sure if marrying into a family with secrets is the right choice."

Ashok placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "We'll talk to Rukmini and see how she feels. Ultimately, it's her decision."

As they pondered the proposal, Rukmini entered the room, her expression uncertain.

"Mom, Dad, can we talk?" she asked, her voice hesitant.

Kamala and Ashok exchanged a knowing glance, sensing their daughter's turmoil.

"Rukmini, what's on your mind?" Kamala asked, concern etched on her face.

Rukmini hesitated before speaking. "I don't know if I can marry Rajveer. He's hiding something from me, and I don't know if I can trust him."

Ashok nodded thoughtfully. "Trust is essential in any relationship. But sometimes, people have reasons for keeping secrets."

Kamala added, "Rajveer's family seems respectable, and he genuinely cares for you. Maybe you should give him a chance to explain himself."

Rukmini looked uncertain. "But what if his secrets put me in danger?"

Ashok's expression turned serious. "That's a valid concern. You need to think carefully about what you want. But also remember, marriage is about growth and understanding. Maybe Rajveer will open up to you in time."

Rukmini nodded, her parents' words weighing heavily on her mind.

With that Rukmini go to her Room and start to think about all what happened with her today.

After some time her phone ring .

Rajveer called Rukmini, his voice filled with excitement and nervousness. "Ruku, I couldn't stop thinking about you today. I feel like I've known you forever."

Rukmini blushed, her heart racing. "I know exactly what you mean, Rajveer. I feel the same way."

Rajveer's voice turned serious. "Ruku, I want you to know that I'm committed to making this work. I promise to always be honest with you, to support your dreams, and to love you unconditionally."

Rukmini's heart melted at his words. "I promise the same, Rajveer. I want to build a life with you, to explore the world together, and to create our own happiness."

Their conversation flowed effortlessly, like a gentle stream meandering through the countryside. They talked about their hopes, fears, and dreams, their connection growing stronger with every passing moment.

As the night drew to a close, Rajveer whispered, "I love you, Ruku."

Rukmini's voice barely above a whisper, replied, "I love you too, Rajveer." And Rajveer didn't know about what Rukmini said.

And Rukmini decide to do this married because it feel some hope with this manage and she think that Raju really love her.

But somewhere Rukmani was insecure about herself and her looks.
