One Fated encounter ✓

Fate to Destiny!

Arjun's POV:

I was certain that she is special, very special...special enough to get into my book of life. The day I met her, I knew she is going to get into a page in my life book, but I never imagined that she will fill in all the pages of the book, in fact she has now become my book altogether.

It's quarter to 3 am and I just could not stay put. I wanted to see her right away and have no idea how. I don't have her number; yes I purposely didn't gather that as I felt I should let her go as she wished. What a stupid you are Arjun! My inner self mocked. I don't even have her brother's number stored with me anymore. I know very well that the only thing I can do now is to sleep, get up early and see her tomorrow, but in love, your heart doesn't necessarily listen to your brain.

Even before my brain started drilling the facts, I was on my way to the car to drive to her place. I knew I have gone crazy else there is no way I am heading there willing to wait till the sun rise as the possibility of her coming out or getting a glimpse of her is just not possible.

When I reached, the road was calm and parked the car without much noise. I stood out and the cold breeze gave a warm welcome and I embrace myself looking at her room, the one without the balcony. All the things that I did, I wanted to make it up with her and felt there was a ray of hope that I will meet her as soon as she is up.

"You are late!" She said while marching towards me from the garden and I stood there stricken. She always has a knack to make me feel so low and miserable. I always thought I was the one who is into this relationship so deep but every time that thought creeps up, she broke that out right royally proving me that I'm still falling short.

"How did you know that I'm coming?" I asked earnestly as she came closer.

"Hmm, I know you more than what you know about yourself" she said while her body was shaking in cold and I saw her lips getting dried which hinted me clearly that she must have waited out for long time. I wanted to hug her tight to give her the warmth, but hesitated as I felt ashamed to even look at her and worried about the fact that she was angry with me.

I broke into a sweat, how strange! My heart pounded, and my hand began to feel clammy against my bouncing knee wondering what to say.

"I'm sorry", she said and I looked up horrified

"Wh..y do..you..I'm sorry, actually", I said and felt I can no longer control myself and moved closer to her and grasped her hand and warmed up her cold hands and asked warily "I know we didn't start it well, but I wanted to end this without regret"

She pulled her hands back and looked at me horrified. Realization slowly synced, I understood the reason why she is looking at me like that and I was amused thoroughly on her reaction.

"What's now?", she questioned dejectedly and her puppy eyes twinkled brighter than the stars.

"hmmm. I'm actually super annoyed with all that you have done. Do you know that?", I said chuckling enjoying the moment

"Ok stay here and get even more annoyed, am going in", she turned to walk away and I rushed and hugged from the back and said "Dimple please, please never ever show your back to me again. It kills me more than anything"

She gave a warm kiss to my hand and turned "I won't Aju. I knew you were pulling me"

I held her shoulders tight, meeting her eyes, I said "What I wanted to tell you was, I didn't start my life with you, but I definitely want to end it only with you. I am so sorry that I put you through a lot, but trust me I will make it up for all that and I will be good to you till my last breadth. I won't promise that I will make you all smile, but I am giving my promise that when you cry you won't do it alone. I won't promise that we will never have disagreements, we will fight, but I will ensure that we won't fight for the same thing twice. I know you deserve an incredible love and you deserve a better person than me, but trust me I will try hard and will never quit trying to impress you. I love you Dimple. Please marry me"

She started to cry and smacked at me and said "You are a jerk! An insolent Jerk, do you know that? How can you vanish just like that because I said so..." she sobbed uncontrollably and continued " after I told you to never see me...after you left the room, I stood there for hours and thought you would come back...my anger can only hold for seconds...it can't even go long for minutes...how can you leave just like that" she broke down in tears and I cradle her in my arms and move to the steps close by and sat side by side.

"I'm really sorry Dimple, trust me please, I will never leave you even if you say so...I'm going to stick like a gum next to you" I said clasping her tight with my arms holding her around the shoulders.

"I'm sorry too" she said wobbly and placed a quick peck on my lips.

I don't really need a person to complete me, all I needed was a person who completely accept me as who I am! I know, no one make me feel this way...only she can make me feel happy and sad in an instance...She is the one for me! She is the one who accepts the incomplete me!

Saki's POV:

"I'm going to stick like a gum next to you", he said and held my shoulders tightly with his arms. The firmness in his hand reminded me the day when I first met him...the touch, there is absolutely no difference in his touch, the difference is only in the thoughts on how I perceive it! I cursed him when he pressed me hard to the car seat not knowing his intentions, but now I wish this can continue till my last breadth! How strange this could be? I have never imagined that he would become my everything...I wondered.

"Dimple, are you purposely teasing me?", he questioned

"teasing you?" I looked up at him and he continued "when are you going to answer me? this is the nth time I am asking you..will you marry me?"

"Oh! do you really want me to spill it to you? if I'm not then what are we going to have this Sunday?" I mocked

"Oh come-on, you never once said that you love me. Last time when you said...it was..it was out of anger. Don't you think you are little too much?", he said seriously and I loved every bit of his reactions.

"Would you leave me if I don't give a response or say what you expect", I asked clearly wanting to toy with him

He starred at me and in deep contempt.. slowly...slowly he shook his head and said "No..way..that I will leave you. I will make sure you say that" and he grabbed my waist closer to him and started tickling me and we laughed out loud until we couldn't breath. He pulled me close and rained kisses on my temple, cheeks affectionately and I rested my head on his chest locking my fingers on to his perfectly fitted hand and said "Arjun, when I first met you, I knew you are an absolute jerk and you are still the sam.."

"What?"

"Ahh", he pinched me hard and I pouted "I'm not going to say anything if you are not ready to listen"

"Ok, I'm all ears", he said and I continued "What I wanted to say was, even though I didn't like everything you did or at least to some extent I wanted to smack you for the way you treated others, but there is always a part of you which made me to feel that you are mine...I realized, every time I hated you, I have loved you more than the hate...I love you more than what you think I would" I said locking our eyes. There was an absolute silent for a minute as though our souls conversed, his eyes slowly welled up with tears and he placed a kiss to seal the deal.

Meeting him was fate, searched him incessantly was my choice and now wanting to be with him is my destiny!

I'm not sure whether our story ends with happily ever after...but I'm happy right now more than anyone in the world...and I'm certain that I'm going to grow old with him and the best is yet to come!

And...

They lived happily ever after....THE END
