My Unforgettable Love

Part 36

The following morning,i phoned Sameer and asked him if we could meet to discuss. He told me to come to meet him in his flat. So i went. As i rang the bell,he opened the door. I went inside & he made me feel comfortable. He even brought me my favourite coffee. Just after drinking it. He asked : "so have you thought about what i said yesterday".

I hesitated and then i said : "i want to be very clear about this so i will tell you frankly. I actually don't want to get married because for me marriage is not a boat that i climb on one when the other is sinking. I want to be independent and look after my son but we are living in a society whereby a woman should always depend on a man. It's just that i don't want other people to look at my son as an orphan so i'm ready to get marry to you but only for the sake of my son,nothing more. See Sameer you're my bestfriend since childhood and i don't want to complicate our relationship. I hope you understand and if there is any problem do let me know"

Sameer was speechless for a couple of seconds then he kneed down with a rose in his hand & said :"i agree because i trust you & i'm ready to be Armaan's father and your companion in this journey of life". I blushed away and told him to come at home and ask my hand from my in-laws. He even dropped me home and he said that it would be better to talk about the proposal on other day.

I was constantly thinking about Armaan's future and i thought that maybe i made the right decision but i wasn't sure. I was missing Inayat so much that i was thinking if he was in my shoes what he would have done. Then i got my answer because Inayat was my better-half & our thinking was so similar. I smiled and said to myself that yes i made the right decision.

After 2 days,Sameer came to ask for my hand. Mom&dad agreed happily because they always wanted me to be happy and they thought that maybe my happiness was found in Sameer. They even asked ma&pa about their decision,even they agreed! Everything was sorted out and dad said the nikah will happen in exactly one month. Everyone was elated by this news.

Then Sameer went to meet Armaan,no wonder what he was talking to him but Armaan seemed to be excited & happy. And he had that cunning smile on his face and he looked so cute. Later on,i text Sameer and told him that i want our nikah to be very simple with few people and few expenditures. He said whatever you wish will happen in that way itself....
