"I heard all of these before, anything else? I loved your surprise but Am here to talk to you specially about our marriage and that...." She couldn't complete as Shivaay put his finger on her lips and hushed her.
"may I? I want to say it first...... its about my feelings which I was bearing in my heart till the time, but Time to confess it as I realized it finally, dont get me wrong but I....I....I love you Anika" He poured his heart out to Her shock.
.............
"I really dont know how to express it properly especially when I could express my rage my fury my angst before you" He went on his knees and held her left palm,
" you know am very vocal about my feelings, Now as you are standing here with me, at this moment I am feeling myself to be very emotionally drained, hope you know what I am feeling for you, I always tried to snatch every happiness from you, You had been excited to meet your Dadaji after a long time, but only for my mistake to grasp the situation, Suresh Chaturvedi had attempted suicide thus he met accident with your cab. I had not tried for once to talk with him about the misappropriation. even I made that little boy suffer like hell, but I must say He is really very lucky to have you those years as his sole protector. In fact When The history repeated and you broke my trust and dream, I thought you were just a ruthless businesswoman whom I should treat in my way! I never gave my heart a chance to look beyond my business, and my ego took that advantage and hurt you for several times. but thanks for making me realize how stupid I was, how Rude I was. Thanks for coming in my life and teach me this lesson. Because I badly needed this" He sobbed aloud and further spoke "You must be thinking Mr Tubelight has finally been flashed on, It must be like a dream to you, believe me, I dont want to break this trance, Let this dream continue, I want to make this evening special for you." He traced her inner palm and looked intently at her Mehendi,
"My name" He whispered, his eyes became teary and got up, he smiled faintly as he cupped her face with his right hand and tickled her cheek.
"Thanks Anika, and thanks for wearing this saree, yeah I never bought sarees so I had a doubt if you would've liked it or not.But you look gorgeous.....(taking pause) as usual" He chuckled as He wiped off his happy tears and kissed on her forehead, making Anika trembled as shiver ran down her spine,

It took exactly 10seconds for her to compose herself from being in a puddle of emotions. She got her stance back and It took another 10seconds for her to get herself back from sinking away in his love.
She closed her eyes as her mind instructed her to do it right away, and Surprisingly Her heart gave consent.
and She pushed him hard.
The force with which She pushed him back, was enough to make him stumble across the beach, he fell with a thud.
..............
"Yes You were right. I was and am still that same ruthless businesswoman who only means Business!"
It was not betrayal like he was used to with,
but It was something different in her voice that shook his soul. He was shaken and broken in a second.
With shock and disbelief in his eyes and fast-paced heart beats He stood being shattered.
"How could you ever think I would accept your love? A businessman's love? just like me and my Dadaji, you are a Saudagor (merchant). Must be everything for you, has been a deal. This proposal must be included in those agreement papers as a clause. isn't it? But I can't accept this deal sorry! enough now! Am tired of all this fake concern. I don't need your fake love. yes Fake! cause You all are the same, you all can do anything to get that tender and Am an essential part of it. how much price you all have estimated for me? tell me? where's my tag? I can't find it attached to my body" She turned her palms and grazed all over her body frantically searching for the imaginary tag.
"no....I am not tagged, so??? How can you still treat me as a object to realize the deal?" She cried aloud.
"what are you doing? What are you talking about? Are you even in your sense? I have never treated you as an object of this transaction. Yes I hurt you, but I hurt you as my rival, I have never taken you as granted. You are equal to me! got it....I already said that." He shook her grabbing her shoulders to which She simply jerked his hands away and stood aloof,
"sorry but I cant trust a businessman's words! I dont want to be cheated in the same way I had broken your trust.This marriage will be only a commitment from my side, nothing else!" She looked elsewhere with a blank face.
"seriously? I haven't even asked you to accept my love, I just expressed it. okay! I dont need your love to love you back, My love is enough to turn this commitment into a love marriage, at least from my side,Thanks for making me realize the reality of this business world, which I couldn't get to understand even after being in this world since the last 8years, I will love you no matter what you think about me, I will! thanks and bye" He slammed those hurtful words, matched with the sound of the soaring waves behind them.
He was about to turn back, when He felt a tug.(don't blame me for this, I told you Its gonna be heartbreaking)
