Part 18

The next morning, Naina awoke to the gentle sound of birds chirping outside her window. The sun peeked through the curtains, casting a soft glow around the room. She stretched and turned to find Arjun still fast asleep, his features peaceful and relaxed. A smile tugged at her lips as she recalled the previous day’s playful rivalry with Rohan.

Feeling inspired, Naina decided to surprise Arjun with a little gesture. She tiptoed out of bed and made her way to the kitchen. With a spark of creativity, she grabbed some colorful paper and started writing a letter—a playful yet heartfelt note that would remind Arjun just how much he meant to her.

As she wrote, the words flowed effortlessly:

---

Dear Arjun,

I woke up this morning with a smile, thinking about our little competition yesterday. I loved seeing your jealous side; it only proves how much you care. You always keep me on my toes, and I appreciate how fiercely you love me.

Remember, no one can ever replace you. You’re my partner in everything—laughter, adventures, and even the awkward charades that have left us both in stitches.

So, here’s to many more memories, lots of laughter, and maybe a few more playful jealous moments. But no matter what, you’ll always be my favorite.

Love you to the moon and back,
Naina ❤️

With a satisfied grin, Naina folded the letter neatly and placed it on Arjun’s pillow, just within his line of sight. She made her way back to the kitchen, determined to whip up a special breakfast for them both.

A little while later, the delicious aroma of masala dosa filled the air, and Naina was humming happily to herself when she heard Arjun’s voice behind her.

“Good morning, my favorite chef!” he called out, his tone playful. She turned to find him leaning against the doorframe, a teasing smile on his face.

“Good morning! I hope you’re ready for a feast,” she replied, stirring the batter in the pan.

Arjun stepped into the kitchen, the playful glint in his eyes evident as he approached her. “What are you cooking up for me? Something special to make up for my jealousy?”

“Maybe,” Naina teased, flipping a dosa with a flourish. “Or maybe just a delicious breakfast to start the day.”

As they enjoyed their meal together, Naina’s heart swelled with happiness. She could tell Arjun was in a better mood, his earlier irritation fading with each bite and laugh they shared.

After they finished eating, Naina stood to clear the table, and Arjun caught her wrist, pulling her close. “You have something on your mind,” he said, an eyebrow raised. “What is it?”

With a playful smirk, Naina replied, “Maybe you should check your pillow.”

Curiosity sparked in Arjun’s eyes as he rushed to their bedroom, and Naina followed closely behind. He quickly grabbed the letter and unfolded it, scanning the words as a smile spread across his face.

“Wow, this is really sweet, Naina,” he said, looking up at her, his expression softening. “You’re amazing.”

Naina stepped closer, her heart racing as she met his gaze. “I meant every word. I love that you care so much. Just remember, no matter how jealous you get, I’m yours.”

Arjun stepped forward, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her into a warm embrace. “And I’m yours, always. You make me the happiest man alive.”

As they stood there, wrapped in each other’s arms, Naina felt a sense of completeness wash over her. Their playful banter, their love, and even the jealousy—it was all part of the beautiful journey they were on together.

“I love you, Arjun,” she whispered against his shoulder.

“I love you too, Naina. More than you’ll ever know,” he replied, kissing the top of her head as they savored the moment.

With laughter and love surrounding them, they both knew that whatever challenges came their way, they would face them together—stronger as a couple and more in love than ever.
