Those blue- green eyes looked at her intensely, demanding an answer. "But what of our love? "she retorted staring back into his eyes with equal intensity. "Won't it get destroyed in this storm? "said Annika. Confusion welled up in his face, oh WHY whas he so forgetful? She had fought with her fears so she could come in this and he can conveniently forget?
What did she mean by our love getting destroyed in this garden? Her own health would be destroyed if she would continue to get wet in this rain without a raincoat or umbrella. "And what do you mean by our love will get destroyed in this mere storm? "asked Shivaay "A storm won't defeat my love for you, hereby I declare my love for you which is undefeatable" said Shivaay.
Shocked, Annika was tongue-tied for a moment. But when she regained her speech she said "O yes I know that but I am talking of our physical symbol of our love, how can you so easily forget about our rose which we planted together as a symbol of our love?".
Having realized his mistake he immediately removed himself from his tight embrace and have his coat to Annika and said" I am sorry, please forgive me for my mistake. Here, take my coat and go to our room and change into new, dry clothes, I will keep the plant safely in our room .
Annika wore the coat and felt grateful for the warmth and went slowly back to the house.
