A reason to live.

Chapter 20

In the evening around 6pm the function had begun. I was in a room, both my hands extended, the designer, so beautifully moved the mehandi cone and made elegant designs on my hands.

The music was on; few of them were dancing, while others just sat down to catch up after a long time.

After about more than an hour, my hands were full of mehandi, the letter 'R' was written near my left thumb and was merged with the design, I couldn't find it myself. Then they started to design my foot.

The music became softer and the chatter louder.

"Hey Sar, Rohan is here " Krys said with a mischievous smile.

"Ah??Oh " was all I could manage, I started to get tensed if Rohan would come in to see me or not. If they would allow him to see me.

Just then I heard the door shut, it made me more scared ” no no no" was all I could hear from inside. Then I realized they were teasing him, the thought of this made me smile, let him get teased like this it's once in a lifetime.

I remember bella ka's wedding, we were around 7 of us and didn't allow jiju to meet bella ka till he gave us money, it was a tradition which  was so much fun... we  didn't  accept any amount but the amount we demanded.

This all made Indian marriages so much fun, I smiled to myself at all these thoughts

Finally the door opened and I looked up. Rohan locked eyes with me and I winked at him and blushed, he had a smug smile plastered on his lips, his eyes boring into mine

Five of my cousins came to Rohan and started blabbering just so that we were interrupted. He sat there replying to all of them and eyeing me after every few seconds, I was equally enjoying the fun, smiling showing all my teeth.

At 8 pm the mehandi was done, I was hungry, and needed someone to help me eat.

“Okay, I think I should leave now, see you” Rohan said

“hmm...okay “I said disappointment evident as I didn't talk to him.

After Rohan left I went out to see all were busy, either eating or serving, and I didn't wasn't to disturb any of them.

“Krys, I'm going to the terrace to get some fresh air, after you’re done come up" I told her and left.

All my friends had come and all were enjoying, while I was getting my mehandi done, so I couldn't speak to them much, and they  were asked to take rest and come  early tomorrow, so it was just Krys  and I.

I went on top and was thinking how things were changing so fast, I put on some music and was taking a stroll in the moonlight when I felt fingers creep on my back and a slight push

" boo"

"Eeeep, Rohan?" I shrieked, and turned to look at him

"How come you are here?" I asked confused.

"Hmm, Let me guess... you're hungry right?? So I came here to give you this" he smiled and gave me a galaxy chocolate.

"Waow!! thank you so much, didn’t anyone see you coming up here?” I smiled genuinely grateful and gestured him to open the chocolate. He peeled the wrapper neatly and gave it to me.

"Wait!!!! Don’t touch it" Rohan scream whispered, pulled back the chocolate,  I stared at him confused,

“You might eat your mehendi by mistake, here." he said and held the chocolate near my mouth, I opened my mouth to take a bite but he moved it here and there.

"Go, I don't want " I frowned narrowing my eyebrows in mock irritation

“Ok, sorry here" he smiled, he lifted my chin gently and he fed me.

It started to melt within seconds. It was not only the chocolate that melted, I was so impressed by his care that I also melted and couldn't stand steadily, I felt butterflies in my stomach, we moved to the steps and sat down.

We were so close to each other. Thank God it was dark otherwise he would have noticed my very  wide smile and red cheeks.

I couldn't let myself be greedy "You also have a piece.” I pushed his hand with my elbow, I was looking at him, he looked up and locked his gaze with mine as he bit into the chocolate. My heartbeats increased just by looking at the depth his eyes had.

He made me eat the chocolate, not once leaving my eyes. After finishing the chocolate I wanted to walk a little, to calm my heartbeats,  so I shifted to get up but I felt a tug on my hips, Rohan tugged on my salwar.

"one minute sit " I sat down, Rohan turned my face towards his, by placing his palm on my cheeks, his fingers were so warm on my chill cheeks, I closed my eyes as the sensation was so relaxing, but his fingers moved lower to my lips, I opened my eyes, and looked at him questioningly. Rohan  took his palm away from me, he showed his finger, it had chocolate on it. I bit my tongue and scrunched my eyes guiltily and smiled to him, he smiled back and licked it off I  blushed as his finger touched his lips.

We both got up. I strolled while Rohan sat on a small pillar.

“Oh yeah!!, search your letter“ I remembered that he has to find his letter in my mehandi and placed my hand in front of him.

“come here, I can't see properly" he spun me around so my back was facing him and his legs on my sides, I felt too secure to be like this, a warm feeling overwhelmed me, like bolts of electricity spread through my body.

His left hand held my left palm while his right hand went over my right shoulder and held my left palm. He leaned his head in front, so he could see better.

I felt his breath on my neck which sent shivers down my spine, little electric shocks in my stomach making me close my eyes and flinch slowly.

"Sar, ohhh sorry sorry" Krys came up and started to blush as she saw us almost hugging, I moved away

“Uhm...mmm, I'm leaving, bye ” he said shyly but bold enough to wink at me, mouthed 'bye' and went off.
