TJL#14# She Is The One

No Matter What

Noel's POV

" What are you doing, Babe?" I asked Diya as she told me to keep my eyes closed. I kept them closed from last 10 minutes but she is not letting me open them. What is she doing!!!?

" Don't open your eyes. You promised." She said.

" Ok, but now my patience is shattering, Babe." I said.

" Just a minute, Noel. Don't be impatient." She said.

" Ok, ok." I said and kept my eyes closed.

" Where have I kept it!!! Urrrghh!!!" I heard her and chuckled.

" What are you searching for?" I asked her.

" Don't move. Don't open your eyes, Noel. Otherwise I will kill you." She said and I chuckled again.

" Ok, Babe. I am not moving. I am rooted here." I said to her.

" Got it!! Got it!!! Got it!!!" She shouted on the top of her lungs. I sighed.

" Can I open my eyes now?" I asked her.

" No, let me reach you first." She said.

" Alright, Babe." I said sighing deeply.

" Open your eyes." She said and I opened my eyes. I found her smiling brightly at me. I smiled.

" What were you looking for, Ms. Goenka or should I say soon to be Mrs. Axton?" I asked her. She smiled and took out her hands and I found a small gift box in it. I raised my eyebrows.

" For me?" I asked her and she rolled her eyes.

" No, for my friend Rohan." She said and I glared at her.

" Don't glare at me open it." She said and sat beside me.

" What is inside it?" I asked her.

" Ahan!!! You need to open it to find it out." She said and gestured me to open it. I started to open it.

" I don't know which weird thing you got me now." I said. On my birthday she gifted me a book. How to learn Hindi in 50 days. Like seriously, dude!!! I think I need 50 years to do that. I tried but it was more messed. I left. It was too weird to learn from a book and hard without anyone's help. I can understand a little now. Ari helped me a bit and Rudra too. I need time to get with it. Can't do it in one day, right?!!

" I don't always get you a weird gift, Noel." She said and I sighed. I opened it and found a watch in it. She knew my choice. I liked it.

" It's beautiful, babe." I said to her she smiled.

" I told you. I don't al-" she was saying but I captured her lips and gave her a soft peck. She was shocked for a second.

" What was that, Mr. Axton?" She asked me.

" Thank you, Babe." I said.

" What kind of way to say thank you?" She asked.

" Beautiful way to say thank you." I said and gave her another peck.

" Oh so romantic mood!!" She said.

" Yeah, and why not?! You are mine after all." I said.

" But you can't see me after today. You will directly see me in the wedding day." She said and my eyes open wide.

" What!!!" I said.

" What?! It's a ritual." She said.

" Hell with the ritual." I said and pulled her close to me hugged her tightly. No way I am not going to see her next 2 days.
