When she lifted her head, my head started spinning. I couldn't believe that I had kept the one girl I had wanted to meet all these years waiting for 20 minutes. I kept nodding my head and couldn't contain my happiness on seeing her, It was ' Her '.
Yes, It was Zoya.
She was sitting there looking like a goddess, dressed in a stunning halter neck red colored gown and her hair tied in a loose bun.I was looking nothing less though as I was dressed in my lucky black 3-piece suit and this suit is indeed very lucky for me as it made me meet my LOVE after 5 damn years.
"How are you ?, " She gleamed. "I didn't know my blind date would be someone I already knew." She concluded.
"Me either. Did you wait for me after your exams?" I asked
"I waited until my dad got so mad that he was almost going to take off without me. Why didn't you come ? I thought that the one date that you had with me had made you change your mind. I felt very bad though at that time, I felt we shared more than that one moment. I felt we were meant to be and I have never felt that way with anyone else so far." She explained and looked up at me with tears sparkling in her eyes.
She looked as beautiful as the day that I had set my eyes on her. Now she was saying the things that I had rehearsed a 1000 times to tell her when I met her.
Now I didn't care if the whole world saw me, I was in love with this woman and never wanted to lose her again. I got down to my knee and proposed to her and asked her there itself if she would marry me.
She nodded "YES" and the kiss that we shared that night in front of 100 people sealed our life together.
We got married that winter. I got my book of poems published and dedicated to her. We have spent nearly half a century together. During this time we have fought many battles and made many peace treaties. We have travelled around the globe and experienced the wonders of nature together. We have had 2 kids; Aditi and Zohar as proofs of our love. We stood by each other during all the crest and troughs of life. Seen our bodies transform with time. But nothing changed our love for each other.
Today may be time will finally win. Time was asking me to believe that my love can cross the boundaries of this physical world.
So I walked into the ICU again. Now it was for me to decide whether I wanted her to be tied to these tubes so that I can continue seeing her or let her go and believe that I will be meeting her soon.
I held her hands and spoke to her,
"I don't want you to suffer anymore, Zo and will meet you soon."
I nodded my head to the doctor and held her hands.•THE END ❤•
P.S. This book is dedicated to my elder sister and my mentor ShivikaOnly.
