Pat's POV
Weeks passed, and the tournament intensified. Abhishek's team made it to the semifinals, while I wrapped up my shoots. Our vacation plans remained a cherished secret, fueling our excitement.
Finally, the day arrived. Abhishek's team secured a thrilling win, and we embarked on our getaway.
"Where are we headed?" I asked, excitement building.
Abhishek grinned mischievously. "It's a surprise."
The flight took us to the picturesque Maldives. Crystal-clear waters, pristine beaches, and lush greenery enveloped us.
As we stepped into our beachside villa, I gasped. "This is paradise."
Abhishek chuckled. "I knew you'd love it."
Our days blurred into a serene haze. We spent mornings snorkeling, afternoons lounging in hammocks, and evenings watching sunsets.
One evening, as we strolled along the beach, Abhishek turned to me.
"Pat, from the moment I met you, I knew you were special. You challenge me, support me, and love me unconditionally."
My heart swelled. "You're my rock, Abhishek. My soulmate."
We shared a tender kiss under the starry sky.
The next day, Abhishek planned a surprise picnic on a secluded island. We sailed there, laughing and teasing each other.
As we settled onto the sandy beach, Abhishek revealed a beautifully set table, complete with candles and flowers.
"This is magical," I whispered.
Abhishek's eyes sparkled. "I wanted to make this trip unforgettable."
We savored each bite, our love growing with every passing moment.
That night, as we gazed at the star-filled sky, I realized:
This vacation wasn't just an escape.
It was a celebration of our love.
A love that conquered rivalry, societal expectations, and personal demons.
A love that shone brighter with each passing day.
