Is he the one?

15) Gift

He ran his hand on the letters again. "Naina.." he whispered. He looked at the pop up card. It contains a big heart. "Sameer" it read. It leads to other 3 small hearts which contained naina, nanu and munna & pandit. He smiled at himself thinking how skillfully she held his whole in one card.

He kept it safely inside his cupboard with the messy blue wrapper which he unwrapped impatiently a few minutes ago. He wondered how many hours it would took for her to prepare this. She even decorated it with glitter pens, stickers, ribbon and some detailed things. He marvelled thinking she did all these with her own hand.

He was about to close the cupboard but one blue tag caught his attention. He took the tag. It was attached with the wrapper. He opened it. His eyebrows frowned to read those small letters yet neat proving her a topper.

It read, "Some people dream of success. While others wake up and work hard for it. Wish you will be one of them. And don't forget to hold my hand throughout it."

His lips stretched widely at the last sentence. He caressed those beautiful handwriting.

He woke up with a start and looked at the clock. It was 1:52. He sighed and looked around. He didn't remember when he slept. He looked at the small piece near his leg. He took it and realized it was naina's gift. Somehow he recalled that he lied down holding the tag close to his heart. He took it and kept it safely with the others. He lied down again. he tried to sleep. but there was no sign sleep approaching him.

She looked at the phone helplessly. She wondered she could call or not. What if he is sleeping?....How could he sleep when I was waiting here sleepless for his reaction for my gift? May be he don't like it. That's why there was no call of him yesterday. I should call him and ask. She took the phone but kept it as it is. I should not call at this time. He might be sleeping. I should not disturb him. Another part of her screamed, Naina you has the right to disturb him. You are his girlfriend and he will not be awake by a ring.

She came to a decision of trying once. She dialed his number and it rang. Within the first ring the other side accepted her call.

"Hello naina.." he said subconsciously.

"You aren't sleeping?" she asked curiously thinking how she conducted a debate among her brain just to call him.

"Yeah..I was sleeping. Woke up a few minutes ago. You aren't sleeping?"

"Yes and that too because of you only."

He was confused of what he did. He recalled the day's incident and didn't found any such things that make her angry or sad.

"Are you there?"

"....yeah..I am sorry." Even he didn't know why he said sorry but he said sorry to less down the punishment she will give.

"Why are you saying sorry?"

"Because I am reason for you not getting sleep."

"Yes. For that why you need to say sorry." Now he is confused more.

"Are you not angry with me?"

"Why I need to get angry with you?"

"Then why I am the reason?"

"You are such a pagal. I was waiting restlessly to see your reaction for my gift."
He laughed at himself for his overthinking.

"That's all?"

"Haan....Now if you didn't answer my question only I will get angry at you."

"What question?"

"How is my gift?"
