A man in his mid 20's is seen blindfolding a girl.

"Mahir ji, what are you doing? Where are you taking me?" She asked him who was busy blindfolding her.

"Chill, Adhya. I am not gonna kill you." Mahir said with a small smile dancing on his lips.

"Who knows? You get hit on the head and the damage to the neurons may lead to this malfunctioning." Adhya blabbered like always in her biology accent.

"Yaar, kabhi toh normal logon ki tarah baat kiya karo." Mahir said unable to get what she wanted to say.

(Yaar, atleast sometimes speak like a normal human does.)

"Acha, I was saying it's hard to predict.You can kill me." She translated her earlier sentence to her non biology understandable hubby.

Mahir just shook his head at her crazy thoughts and held her hand to lead her way.

"I am opening the blindfold. Don't open your eyes immediately."He whispered huskily in her right ear making her freeze for a moment. He finally removed the blindfold and Adhya slowly opened her eyes.

She gasped looking at the surroundings. The beach was looking elegant in the night sky with the moon glowing  loyally.

There was a table set up in the far away corner of the beach. But her eyes were frantically searching that one person who brought her here.

That's when she heard a faint whisper of her name and she looked in the direction of the sound.

There he was on his knees, passing her one of his most dazzling smile. Her hands automatically found their way to her mouth while she just stood their shocked grasping the whole situation.

" Mrs. Adhya Mahir Sehgal... " He said in his deep velvety voice. She didn't know why, but the way he took her name along with his made her heart skip a beat.

"The day you walked in my life, I knew it. I knew you aren't the one to be controlled. Ordered. You made my life a rollercoaster ride. Your cute funny acts always left me amused but still I showed my angry self. But, I ain't going to apologize for that. I think it was necessary. " He said with a cute smile in his face.

"Mahir ji, you are so.... " She didn't know, what to say irritating or cute.

"Ok! Ok! Wait, let me finish. Haan! So you are just like that Phylum Mollusca in biology, I think. See, I am very bad at it. Any mistake please forgive your hubby. So, your like the molluscans living in that deep oceans, tough exterior that too so beautifully carved and a soft, innocent creature dwelling at its inside. You are that pearl in the oyster lying deep down on the ocean bed and I just want you to lend me a chance to be that deep swimmer to find and treasure this valuable possession. So my dear Ariel will you allow to be your Eric, because I know you are that mermaid who swims the depth of every emotions and I can't help but drown myself in the ocean of your love whose is spontaneous by its waves but yet still at the bottom." With this said he took a pause and looked in his beloved wife's eyes which were still on him and slightly wide with all the happenings. He couldn't help but smile at her state. He took hold of her right hand and kissed the back of it all the while looking deep into her eyes. He mustered up all his whole courage and finally let out those words which he had wanted to say for such a long time.

"I, Mahir Sehgal, loves you with all my heart, Mrs. Adhya Mahir Sehgal." He finally confessed his love for her and his eyes were sparkling with love.

His confession surely took her a little offguard and her adrenaline was rushing through her veins. Her brain was just too numb to process anything. While her stupid heart was caught up in increasing its beats.

Every second was killing Mahir. He was observing her every move very keenly that's when he noticed a small frown had made its way to his wife's forehead and before he could ask why, her words left him rolling on the ground and no doubt with laughter.

"I didn't knew the heart has started thinking. What is your hypothalamus doing nowadays?" She said with sarcasm dripping in her voice.

(Note: Hypothalamus is a part of our brain which is responsible for love, hate, anger, thirst and various different emotions.)

This was it Mahir wasn't able to control. His rich laughter started booming in the surroundings. While she can't help but smile seeing him laughing.

"Only my antic wife was able to say this right now. Out of the whole speech, I had recited my wife was just able to grasp only this one thing. Well, no offence. I am at mistake." He thought.

He slowed down his laughter and stood up from the ground. He then took her tiny hands into her large callous ones. Looking straight into her eyes, he once again declared his love just the way his lady would love to hear.

"I love you with my whole hypothalamus, Mrs Adhya Mahir Sehgal. " He said, his voice thick with lots of swirling emotions.

Numerous emotions were dancing in his eyes, amusement, care, nervousness but the most prominent was love.

"Adhya... " He called her name softly finally bringing her out of her trance. Her silence was killing him.

"Please say something. I am not pestering you to say 'I love you, too', but still a single word. You are now scaring me." He said his eyes helding the fear of rejection.

"Mahir ji, I can't. . . I can't do this." Adhya said looking into his eyes who were focused on her with an expectant look in them.

Mahir frowned listening to her words. He wasn't able to get what she wanted to say like always.

"Damn this girl loves mystery." He thought.

"What do you mean by this?" He voiced out his confusion to her.

"It's that I love someone else.I can't betray my first love Mahir ji. " Adhya said looking down not ready to meet his eyes.

The moment those words left her mouth he felt numb. It was like somebody poured a bucket full of ice cold water on him.

"Is this how it feels to get rejected? Is it how heartbreak feels? Is this the pain love gives? Is this how it sounds when your heart gets shattered? " He thought. Numerous questions were there but the prominent one was,

"Who is that man?"

He felt anger building inside him just at a mere thought of her with some other man. And why won't, she is his lawfully wedded wife after all. Composing himself he asked that one question whose answer he dreaded to hear.

"Who is it?" His voice barely a whisper.

"Mahir ji, you know it. In fact everyone knows. I have said it so many times in front of you." She said chirping, her eyes sparkling with happiness.

Mahir can't help but feel jealous by seeing so much love in her eyes, but not for him, for someone else.

"Huh? Adhya, don't test my patience for God's sake. Spill the name." He said through gritted teeth and his fists clenched in an attempt to control the budding anger in his veins.

"Biology" She said with her eyes tightly closed just like when a child is about to get hit by the teacher.

But the impact of her answer on someone was very prominent. No wonder that someone was her Mahir ji.

When that word fell on his ears, that's it. It was the end. He fainted right there and then.

Hello, guys.

Finally, I am back with a dashing teaser. And I hope you all loved it.

Tell me girls, did you loved the way Mahir proposed Adhya? And do tell who wants to get proposed in the same way? Maybe I will try to bribe Mahir for that.
