Manan's POV
"Great job buddy" said Angad as he gave me a high five. He was my partner, playing fabulously by my side. I was just about to reach to the score of century.
I was about to tell him something when he signalled someone (our helper I guess) with a sign which I didn't understand. I did not pay much attention to it and decided to focus towards the match.
I had scored 95 and was eager to reach towards the perfect 100, get my team win and then, propose Kuhu. I grinned to myself as I felt my pockets again.
As the bowler threw the ball, within seconds I hit it and it was a six!!!!!
The whole crowd erupted with joy as I looked towards the stands. Kuhu was standing with my parents as well as her parents! Wait! What were my parents doing there!? They didn't tell me they were coming to another city to see my match!
Suddenly the lights of the stadium went down. Since it was 8:00 pm, the sky was already dark and one could see the countless stars blinking. The audience uttered the words of astonishment reflecting the doubt and confusion that I had. A stadium that could occupy a crowd of 50000 people can always handle power failures! Why so much of negligence from the part of organisers?
Suddenly the music, player. My favourite song "Perfect" by Ed Sheerin. The whole stadium was dark. Except the VIP stands. For some unknown reason, it was glowing with red coloured glow sticks. Waving in the tune of the song.
"I request everyone to please maintain silence. We all are about to witness a beautiful thing!" Boomed the commentator.
The whole stadium went almost quiet. Suddenly I saw a figure approaching me. I looked towards the Caption Angad who had vanished.
The figure was of a girl with long black jet hair and wearing a red knee length dress. She came towards me, smiling, her face eliminating with red glow stick that she was holding. She came towards me and held my hand.
And as per the cue, the whole stadium
was lit with blue lights! And behind Kuhu, I could see some faces which were earlier enveloped in darkness. They all were wearing red T shirts!They made a kind of a circle around us which I felt like it was a heart shape if looked from far above. I looked at Kuhu, demanding some explanation! What was happening?
As I looked towards her, I found her kneeling on her one knee. The song was in the background.
"Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow
Your heart is all I own
And in your eyes you're holding mine""Marry me!" She just whispered.
And it hit me! She is proposing me!! In the midst of the world!!!! How the hell did she know that I was about to propose her!!!
I still felt the pocket and felt like I had lost the battle of proposing first. She grinned at me knowingly. I have to admit, she knows me well now.
The whole crowd cheered and we could hear the flashes of cameras while the commenter was kind enough to be silent while everything happened.
"I... I .." I stammered as I was still unable to say anything. Usually I am the one who give her shocks but she beat me today.
She just raised her eyebrows, amused at my expressions. Waiting for my reply.
"Only if you say yes too" I said as I too kneeled on my knee and took out the box. She gasped as I opened the ring and made her wear it. It was my grandma's ring which she had passed to my mum as a part of tradition. And now it was rightfully hers.
She made me wear her grandpa's watch. It was too old but held a huge sentimental value for her. I know that she always keeps it with herself since she was a kid.
I was still doubtful if I deserved it. It was too dear to her. "Come on! wear it" she whispered again. And before I could say anything, she took my wrist and made me wear it.
We both got up while the commentator requested us to dance on the song still playing on the background.
"Let's all witness a beautiful proposal coming true! The match commenced after 10 minutes!" The commentator announced.
The lights in the stadium were off and all the people standing around us just switched on their glow sticks so that a faint red light appeared for everyone to see. I knew that after sometime, everything magical as it is, would be over. The match would commence again. But I could always savour the moments!
We both slow danced. There wasn't stillness and the audience too made noises to cheer us up.
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark
With you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass
Listening to our favourite song
When you said you looked a mess
I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it,
Darling, you look perfect tonightI was over the moon. It was the most beautiful day of my life! My career and my personal life seemed to be fulfilled now. I felt surreal
Well, I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our ownWe are still kids but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyesI enveloped her in my arms as she gazed into my eyes. We both were not at all concerned about the world. It was like I had found her again. It was just like the the day when I send her request on Facebook and got in touch with her after so many years!
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark
With you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass
Listening to our favourite song
When I saw you in that dress
Looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this
Darling, you look perfect tonightNo, no, no
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark
With you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass
Listening to our favourite song
I have faith in what I see
Now I know I have met an angel in person
And she looks perfect
I don't deserve this
You look perfect tonightShe looked perfect tonight. And she would be perfect for me for the eternity!
