It was the worst day in your office as there was too much work pressure.. You were busy working in your office, entering data in your computer. You tried to sit back straight, stretching you back and little and massaging your neck when there was an unexpected text message.. You checked your phone and saw Loki's message..

"Meet me after work in the cafe"

You sighed, and replied back in affirmative and then went back to work..

After getting off from work, you walked to the cafe and you saw him already waiting for you outside...

After ordering your selected drink, you sat down on a table, both facing eachother...
You rubbed your eyes tiredly, you were exhausted and just wanted to go home and sleep... But since Loki rarely calls you to meet outside, you thought there must be something bothering him which he needed to talk about..

"So... What is it you want to talk about? Is something bothering you?", you said trying to smile at him and pretending to look fresh..

Loki raised an eyebrow, and said in a very composed manner..
"Nothing is bothering me... Just wanted to tell you something"

"Ohh... ", You took a small sip from your drink...
"Tell me what?"

He sat up straight and his elbows relaxing on the table. With quite serious yet relaxed features, he said in a calm manner,
"We're getting married."

You almost choked on your drink as your eyes widened. You coughed slightly in an attempt to gain composure...

We're getting married.

The words rang in your ears and you took your time to register this.. It sounded like a statement and not a question? He stated that you and him are going to get married..

Was he asking? Was he telling?
Was he serious about this?!

You hoped it was some kind of a joke but looking at him, his expression, his eyes, his tone... Everything looked like he was damn serious...

Oh My God...

.

.

OH MY GOD!?

Your anxiety kicked in...

After it felt like a long time you didn't say anything.. You tried to be calm and focused on him..

You laughed nervously, coughing a little in between to hide your anxiety..

"Marriage?" , you tried to ask again..your voice came out very high pitched..

He smiled and his eyes held a spark of excitement...
"Yes, marriage... Lets get married"

You looked into his eyes and he looked very happy and excited. Even though he just spoke about it casually but he was very thrilled about the idea.. He didn't even plan anything special or tried to surprise you but that was not your concern at the moment.. You knew he was raised in a different environment, he came from an entirely different world. A world were marriages were mostly arranged and it meant business more than love... You and him were together for a long time and you both did love eachother, but you never thought about marriage that soon..
Thinking about marriage always gave you anxiety and you were never that girl who was that excited about it. In your entire life, you have always seen people suffering in marriage and you didn't want that for yourself..

"Loki...", You broke the silence.. and continued in a serious tone

"Don't you think it will need more time?"
