Meet Shekhar, an athiest man from a middle class orthodox poojari family and his journey to finding purpose of his own life.
When one day he meets his boss's daughter and little did he know, his whole life is about to change.
Gauri is a Shiva devot...
so, I held his arm and if you ask me to be fully honest with you, I do not ever wish to let go.
walking amidst the crowd of Goa with my arm clinged onto his, I couldn't help but have a sly and a shy smile on my face. I wonder if he noticed tho, what would he think why I'm smiling? aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh hahahhahahhahahhaahhahaa eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee im holding his arm aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Okay Gauri calm down baddie. He's just a guy. Just a guy.
But oh God.... hey Shiva what have you done to me, I really hope you sent this man from your side because why else does he make me feel this way? why just holding his arm makes my heart flutter and makes my stomach flip?
why looking at him mutes everyone around him, why whenever he talks about what he loves, I start loving it too?
"What are you thinking so hard?"
I snapped back. Shit were my thoughts visible?!
"Nothing nothing, why?"
"I don't know, you were quiet and your eyebrows were scrunched"
he laughed. oh dear.
"hahaha nah nah..."
Just then my eyes landed on a jewellery stall. It had a lot of jhumkas and I had to go see them. I have a problem, I'm addicted to jhumkas.
"Lets go there... I wanna see those"
He looked at the stall and started walking towards it, our arms still twined together.
The seller was busy showing some pieces to another customer, they were two middle aged women with sun hats and sunglasses on. huh, how do they see through those glasses properly enough to know what jewellery to buy?
anyways, my eyes landed on all the varieties he had and oh dear... they were all beautiful. I mostly like big ones, the bit extravaganza types... although they're heavy, I feel the prettiest in them.
"They're all good how do I choose?"
"Hmm... Lemme see them too" he said and came forward beside me to take a proper look at them too. I removed my arm to have us search better and with ease.
his eyes seemed to scan the stall, and mine seemed to ... scan ... him ... (facepalm's internally)
I removed my eyes quickly before he noticed tho. I'm now looking at jhumkas too. Obviously.
I picked up these-

"How are these?" I asked him.
"Hmm... do you like these?"
"Yeah"
"They're pretty" he softly smiled and shifted his eyes back to the stall pieces, still scanning.
What did that mean tho, he like them or ... he didn't ... what
