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

sorry and thanks for us

After the last night, geetanjali was not talking to advait with the same topic. She was trying hard to ignore the topic but her face was clearly showing it. Advait knew he had messed up for big time but he was not having any other option.

'How long she was going stay with her past ?, She has to moved on from this forever. I know she is going to do this for her, at least for me' advait thought to himself.

For now, geetanjali was packing advait's bag. Showing she was so busy in her jobs as her reality was kind of different.

"Hey, are you done with my packing ?" advait asked. She turned to him with a smile. Her smile was brave enough to let him think she was fine by herself.

"Yeah, almost !" she said.

"Are you done with your breakfast ?" she asked him while ignoring his eye contact.

"Yeah ! but still something is left." he said.

" What ? " she asked.

He walked to her, standing very close to her. His instant move was always amazes her.

" Here "advait said while touching her lips with his right thumb.

"ved...." she warned him. She pushed his hand and started to walk opposite to him.

Advait took her hand, pulling her towards him as she collapsed on his chest, her both hands were on his chest while eyes were talking to him.

"Ved, why did you marry me ?" she asked him from nowhere as advait saw her little confusion in her eyes.

"hmm.... because I love you !" he said.

"But ved, you know I was not virgin after that incident then why did you marry me ?, mostly boys loves to marry a girl who is virgin." she asked him.

"I know but I loved your soul not your body. I married you because I loves your childishness, blabbering, weirdness. I love the feeling when you told me you are not going to talk to me but you always finds a way to have talk with me. I married you because you allowed me to share my problems with you. I loves you more when you plays with my hair. I loves you even more when you makes weird faces while I want to take selfies and the important thing is 'you told him with a confidence that you will love me till your death.'" advait said to her.

She chuckled at his sentence. He really loves her smile. It was the same smile why he fell in love with her. The same smile was responsible for his sleepless nights. 'Who will not fall in love with her after seeing her smile ?' advait thought to himself.

"Hmm... ok !" she said but he knows she has not satisfied with his answer.

"I know he took your virginity from you but also I know you didn't allowed him to take yourself without fight, did you ?" he asked as she met her eyes with floor.

" Yeah ! ? " she said.

"Yeah, I was there when you told him that ' you are not his. ',. My body wasn't responding after seeing your situation but I heard your words." he said while meeting her eyes.

"You were ?" she asked him.

"I am sorry love. I am really sorry. Sorry for I wasn't there when you needed me most. Sorry for I wasn't there when your parents blamed you for the situation. Sorry for I wasn't there when you were going through all the situation alone. Sorry for I wasn't there when you were having your nightmares. Sorry for I wasn't there when you  needed someone. Sorry for I wasn't there when you were building yourself again and again and were failing in it. Sorry for I wasn't there when everyone was looking at you like your the one who was responsible for all this." he said as he said those words he always wanted to tell her.

Geetanjali stared at her husband and uttered the words which left advait to pure confusion, "Thank you."

"for what ?" he asked as she stared at him for some time and then said,

"Thanks for giving me strength to have fight with him. Thanks for loving me when my own parents abandoned me. Thanks for making me believe in myself that I can also have normal life like others. Thanks for keeping those roses every day in the vase with message on the table. Thanks for staying outside my room for the whole nights. Thanks for building yourself with new strength so you can give me support. Thanks for coming back to me after all this. Thanks !"

How can she say all this words this easily. She was saying thanks to him as she has read all the thoughts of him in the second. 'My dad was right when I told him I want to do break up with my girlfriend, 'Son, don't go after many girls, choose the right girl and she will show you the new way when you don't have any way to walk. ' advait thought to himself.

'I think this is the same reason my parents didn't go against to my marriage proposal with her.' advait said to himself while thanking god how lucky he is.

" I love you ! " he said to her.

" I love you too ! " She replied him on the next second as he crashed his lips to hers. He wanted to remember the moment for his whole life.

At the time of leaving :

" Are you excited ? " she asked.

" For what ? " he asked.

"You are going to your favorite place for meeting ." she said.

" Which place ? " he asked.

"Ved, London..." she said.

" Yeah ! but now I love different place rather than London." he said.

"huh ?" she asked him as confusion hit her.

" You want to know my favorite place ? " he asked.

" Tell me ! " she demanded.

" My favorite place in the whole world is next to you." He said as she blushed.

"Seriously...... ? " she asked.

" Yeah ! "he said.

" hmm." she said.

"Babe, If you want to share your past then do tell me. Don't force yourself for me." he said looking into her eyes.

"Ved, I will try my best for you." she said as he nodded to her. He didn't wanted to stretch the situation for her.

"Okay...., I should take my leave now."  he said as she passed me my suitcase.

"Yeah.... " she said as i gestured driver uncle to take my suitcase. She helped him to wear his coat.

"I love you !" he said.

"I love you too !" she replied.

"I love you three..." he added his words.

"I love you infinity....." she replied.

He walked to the car as she waved her hand to him. He blew a kiss to her as she acted like she catches the kiss with her palm. She took her hand and pressed over her hand. Advait hopped into the car and motioned driver uncle to start the car. He was passing the road with the hope geetanjali will tell him everything.

'I hope she will tell me everything. Just open up yourself to me and you will found me beside you.' advait thought to himself.
