the promise (1st book in "past" series)

pizza and movie

At home:

Advait knocked on the door but geetanjali didn't replied him. Advait started to panic, geetanjali never locks door. She knew it was his time of coming back from office. She stays in the living room waiting for him and keeps the door open to peak outside when his car is coming.

Advait called the watchmen uncle when he came close to him, advait asked him about geetanjali's whereabouts. Watchmen uncle told him geetanjali doesn't go anywhere, she was home all day then why geetanjali was not opening the door

"Sir, I think you should open the door with another key." Watchmen uncle suggested.

"Yeah..." advait nodded his head to him. He asked him to bring another key as watchmen uncle went to catch it. Advait tried to keep his breath normal while uncle brings the key to him. He opened the door, he walked inside he threw the bag to the couch and started to check the places from kitchen while watchmen uncle went to neighbors to ask about geetanjali

He walked inside hoping she is cooking while listening songs and couldn't answer the door. He checked the bathroom, his office but he couldn't find her. He called her many times but she didn't gave replies to him. He loosen his tie in the frustration.

"She can't leave me. I am not letting her go again." He promised himself.

He thought to himself for some time as he kept his mind stable and thought about the places where she could be as his mind told him to check the reading places. He walked straight to the reading corner as his mind told him 'she is there'.

He looked at geetanjali who was sleeping on the swing as the book was on her chest. He smiled at her, he took his phone out and called watchmen uncle to come home as he found geetanjali. Advait breathed out swiftly, his whole world was on the edge of crashing to the end. He went to her and kissed her forehead, she opened her eyes as soon she felt warmness near her. 

"I love you advait." She said. Advait thought she was mumbling the words in her sleep. He kissed her forehead again and replied, "I love you too, my sleeping beauty."

He took her in his arms in bridal style and walked towards their bedroom. He laid his wife on the bed and went to close the door. He changed his clothes and went to the bed. He took her close to his body, kissing her forehead he went to sleep.

8:00 pm:

"advait...."

Someone whispered, his name but he ignored it and slept. He pulled her close to him, breathing her scent as he slept again.

"advait... open your eyes babe."

He opened his eyes and looked at his wife who was looking at him back with questioning look,

"hey..." he replied to her.

"hi...um... when did you come home and how we have reached here." She asked him.

"Well.. I put you in the bed and I come home when you were sleeping in reading corner peacefully." advait said to her.

"Ohh..... Okay..." She said, blushing lightly.

"Okay...." advait said as he nuzzled his head in the crook of her neck. **

"Ved, now wake up and let me allow to make dinner." She said.

"No, don't go!, we will order pizza and also today is Saturday night so we can enjoy today's night with movie." advait said.

"Sounds good." She said and hugged him back with her tiny hands as they went to sleep again.

After some more time:

"Ved, look at this !" geetanjali yelled at advait from their living room.

"Wait ! I am coming." advait said.

"What is-, she cut off his sentence and said.

"Ved it's our wedding CD (compact disc), can we play this for tonight".

"Okay... For sure." advait  said.

"Yeah..." she yelled in excitement. They were talking to each other as their attention got distracted by the knock on the door.

"I will check it." advait said.

"k boss..." she said as advait chuckled at her sentence. Advait took pizza from him and gave him his money.

"Thank you!" I said to him.

"Sir..?" the boy asked.

"Is there any problem with money." advait asked him.

"No sir." He said in a low tone.

"Then..." advait asked him.

"Sir, I want an autograph of your wife. I am fan of her books. Please...." the guy said while showing his diary to him

"Yeah...Of course." advait said as his face lit up with a smile.

"Geetu...." advait called her, chuckling at him.

"Yeah.. I am coming." geetanjali said to him as she walked towards him.

"What ?" geetanjali asked.

"Mam, I want your autograph please..." He said.

"Yeah..." She said while taking diary from him.

"What is your name?" She asked.

"Sarthak !" He said.

"Here you go, sarthak" She said while giving his diary back to him.

"Thanks mam and sir. Have a good night !" He greeted the couple and left with happiness.

"Come do it fast!" She said and taking pizza box with her. Advait closed the door and went after her. Advait sat down on the couch.

"Ready?" She asked him.

"Yeah, I am." advait said.

Geetanjali played the video and there is she.

In video, She was looking beautiful in her red lehenga. Her best friends were surrounded by her as she was walking towards advait with her baby steps.

'She was looking so beautiful in sanyukta's marriage. In sanyukta's wedding, she was wearing red saree. I don't know why but she loves red color but she looks beautiful in red color.' advait thought to himself.
