Teron has been incredibly patient with me lately. Between my mood swings, endless need for reassurance, and constant questions, I wasn't exactly easy to deal with. Yet with everything he had going on, he still somehow found time for me.
Thinking about everything he'd done for me, I felt a wave of gratitude. I wanted to do something to show him how much I appreciated him.
But what?
That's when an idea struck me while I was watching a romantic movie with Sakshi. It reminded me of that conversation we'd had after returning from the supermarket—the one that had left me curious and slightly embarrassed. At the time, I hadn't thought much of it. But now, I found myself wondering if it was finally time to do it.
Maybe I could do something special for him.
Something bold.
Something that would show him just how much I appreciated everything he'd done for me.
I shared the idea with Sakshi, who immediately understood what was going through my mind.
"I think It's my turn now!"
She smiled and said, "Bon courage, ma chérie."

I stand outside Teron's room, wondering if that moment has arrived.
He is sitting on the bed, casually scrolling through his phone, feeling relaxed. For several minutes, I pretend to be busy around the room—opening cupboards and rearranging things that don't need rearranging.
Then I take a deep breath.
"Mansi," I tell myself, "you can do this."
Gathering every bit of courage I have, I walk toward him.
