I continue from where you left

"This is the biggest gift"

      Sana felt a little embarrassed about his look. Yet she replied, “I don’t like it when anyone cries for me after I’m gone. And I know that you’ll be the most bothered person. I’m sure you can’t bear my absence. I don’t
want to make you cry, especially when I’ll not be with you to wipe your tears. So you’ll have to die first and
I’ll join you within a week or so”.

        Susou was unable to interpret, hence he said “If I leave you alone, won’t you worry? Won’t you feel lonely? Won’t you feel sad?”
       
        She wiped her tears as she said, “Sure. I’ll. But what if you suffer all these when I’m gone? That will cause me a lot of pain than you”.
Susou was left in tears on her selfless thought. He hugged her and told that he was the luckiest man ever
and that she was his everything.
After minutes of silent romance, they slept in peace.

        The next morning was so bright for both of them and they left their home after a dose of blessings from
Susou’s mom. On their way to the airport, they dropped Nivi at Sana’s home.

       Nivi was not convinced at leaving her parents, but Sana’s brother cajoled her and promised to make herstay fun-filled.
         After having a brunch, they reached the airport and boarded on the plane. In less than two
hours, they reached Goa and their guide took them to the hotel where they had planned their stay.

     They entered their room with a thousand dreams. It was a classy honeymoon cottage and was dim-lit. It was perfect for newly-wed couples and of course for this young, loving, adorable and romantic couple.

After a warm bath, they adored themselves in cool summer wears and spent the evening at the beach. They danced a lot, made fun of each other, had wine together and then returned to their room just before
midnight.

      The next day dint begin so early for them. Yet they enjoyed the first half of that day in some water sports, Scuba diving, and shopping. In the evening they paid visit to some popular churches in and around Goa.

        They weren’t tired, yet had a silent and light dinner and left to the room. It was a beach-view resort and  Sana was staring at the beauty of the Moon sprinkling its silvery sparkles all over the calm sea.

            That was when Susou interrupted, “Do you love the moonlight more than you do me?”
        
            As usual, Sana’s reply was a smile. As a stroke of lightning, she ran to her luggage and started to hunt
for something in her large suit case. She pulled out a card, it looked like an invite card.

        She ran to her love and placed it in his hands saying, “This is the biggest gift I can give you on our fifth anniversary”.

He was curious and opened the folds. It read,

THEY ARE AGAIN READY TO MESMERISE US WITH THE
SWEETEST OF TONES.

His curiosity was escalating and so is yours, I guess.

SUSOU AND SANA ARE BACK TO RECORDING AFTER
EIGHT LONG YEARS.

Under it was printed the website of uploading the vocals and the contact details of the voice company. It
was the same company which brought them together years ago.

        Susou was rejoicing at the thought of them singing together, for another time. Sana had applied for the recording and they were selected without audition as they had proved themselves years ago.

             “Thank you so much, Sana. I never had this thought, of again being into the situation which brought us
together. If I hadn’t been at the audition then, I wouldn’t have met you, wouldn’t have loved you”.

     She blushed as she said, “But I fell in love with you even before we met”.

     He was shocked at her confession. He couldn’t believe her words. “What ? You mean you knew about me before the audition?”

     Sana’s blush deepened, “Yeah ! when I was fifteen”.

     He was astonished, “Fifteen ? you must have been in your school days then”

      “Yes, I was. But you were my world those days, even now. During my school and college, you were the one in my thoughts, in my dreams, in my songs, in my books, in my writings and every possible thing”, she told him everything.

       He was confused as to believe or not. “Then why did you react like I was strange, when we met for the
first time?”

       “I dint want to show up, simple”, she giggled.

        “A typical woman!! Then why did you feel bad when I came to your home for marriage proposal? I won’t  believe if you say that you felt weird”, he was interrogating.

      Having in mind not to hurt him, she said “I really had feelings for you before we met, even the moment we
met. Later, I put down everything of that kind, so that we could be good friends. Moreover I hadn’t thought
of you falling for me, hence I had decided to kill my love for you so that I won’t be hurt if I weren’t able to
live my life with you. After I started to consider you my friend, you came up with a proposal. I couldn’t accept a
friend as life partner so easily. I dint know how and what to react”, tears started to stream down her pink,
chubby cheeks.

      Before the tears could fill her deep dimple, Susou wiped them off with his warm hand and consoled her.
“This is not the time meant for us to get emotional. And you, are such a criminal having hidden all these for
so long”, he dint take it too serious.

       It was like a dream for him and tried to believe whatever she said. He smiled at her and yawned, intentionally. She understood the language of his eyes and smiled back at him. That was another night of ecstasy.
