The Deal ( An Arranged Marriage Tale Of ShubSara )

" We're equals "

Guys , I know I haven't updated in a long time , my tests were going on , that's why I couldn't update. 😔

Sara woke up a little earlier than usual.

She took her bath , got ready , and came down to the kitchen.

It was an off day for their cook , so she decided to make breakfast today , she quickly prepared some poha , the only dish her Maharashtrian self knew how to cook properly.

She smiled, after smelling the poha , thinking that it isn't that bad as she thought it would turn out .

She made Shubman's protein shake and kept it by his side of the bed, along with a note and left for college.

Shubman woke up to the noise of his alarm, stretched, and yawned.

As he sat up, his eyes landed on the note attached to his shake bottle.

" Good morning Mr Gill , No cook for today ! So I made poha for breakfast , do heat it in the microwave cause it would be cold . I ain't the best cook, so hopefully , you won't dislike it . Also I would be a little late today then usual , Bye ;) "

He chuckled, feeling a warmth in his heart. Sara's thoughtful gesture touched him.

As Shubman finished his workout and savored his protein shake, he had got ready for the day and came down .

He then turned his attention to the poha Sara had prepared for him. He heated it up and took a bite... and he couldn't help but smile.

It was definitely the best poha he'd ever had!

As he continued eating, he realized the effort Sara had put into making it.

She must have gotten up much earlier than usual, just to prepare breakfast for him. The thought warmed his heart, and he felt grateful for her kindness.

After finishing his breakfast, Shubman walked towards the mandir to pray.

A smile still graced his lips as he thought about Sara's thoughtful gesture. And then, it struck him - he knew exactly how to thank her for her efforts!

He took his stuff and left for the office .

A spark of excitement ignited within him as he thought about the possibilities. He couldn't wait to see the look on her face when she found out what he had planned!

Sara stood at the front door, her exhaustion palpable after a long day at work.

She rang the doorbell, and Shubman greeted her with a warm, comforting smile. Her heart skipped a beat as he relieved her of her bags, setting them gently on the sofa.

Without a word, he wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close.

His palm covered her eyes .

"Shub?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

"Shh, keep walking," he whispered back, his breath tickling her ear.

He guided her toward the dining area, his touch gentle and reassuring.

As they walked, Sara's fatigue began to lift, replaced by a sense of wonder and anticipation.

As they reached the table, Shubman uncovered her eyes, revealing the dinner for today .

Sara's eyes widened, and she squealed with delight, her exhaustion forgotten. The aroma of her favorite dishes wafted up, making her stomach growl with anticipation.
