The Journey from Ms. Sharma to Mrs. Who [✓]

Chapter 35-Edited

Chinmayi's POV:

"Chinmayi Sharma, you are the most confusing, commanding and the most beautiful woman I have ever met in my life. You make me want to be a better person. I think, no, I know for sure that I am in love with you.

Will you, for god sakes, marry me?"

And to add cherry on the drama cake,  he knelt on his knee and pulled out a small blue ring box and well, the diamond was just glaring at my face!

WHAAATTT!!!!!!

HE, THE DEEPAK JOSHI IS IN LOVE WITH ME, CHINMAYI SHARMA?

And is he really on one knee, proposing to me?

What just happened to him?

Am I in some sort of dream world?

Is it an Inception?

Somebody kick me, let me wake up!

"Deepak-", I just couldn't conglomerate more words out of my mouth.

"Chinmayi, I know you find this ridiculous and I totally realise that you find me amusingly ridiculous! I have been nothing but a jerk, narcissistic fool, an arrogant bastard, an egocentric idiot, a rude asshole and what not to you.

But it is to you that I could confess about my true self and about my past. I could, without any hesitation talk about my insecurities and my worst actions and activities.

Initially, I was scared that a soul as pure as you should not get tainted or even be associated with an injured mind like me. But everytime I spoke to you, even if it was to break our marriage, I felt like as if I was moving towards the locus of healing.

I want to heal, Chinmayi and your love, care and affection is the medicine. I know that it's all quite contradictory to what I have spoken and done all these days, but pardon me, for my moment of realisation was just at the time when they fixed our wedding date.

I should have been wiser, gentler and braver to set aside my thick curtains of ego and let myself feel what I am feeling for you. Please take your time, but let me know how long I should stay on one knee, because it really hurts!"

Woah! Now, that's a lot!

Well that was answered by a shrill scream from my you get sister, Akhila!

"OMG OMG OMG!

Bhai, bhabhi, Anirudh, Veera, everyone come here!"

Oh my dear Lord, this is just getting worse!

I just wanted the 2012 movie to happen, you know, I just want to be swallowed by the Earth!

To the way Akhila screamed I could hear the thumping footsteps of my cousins. Everyone except Charan and Megha were there and I just looked like as if someone had saved me from drowning and slapped me to keep me warm and alive.

"Aww, this is so cute! Chinnu, say yes! Come on!", cheered Bhabhi.

"Oh, wait wait, let's take a video of this beautiful moment...", said Anirudh as he took out his phone to "capture" this undecodable happening!

"Aah- Chinmayi?", called Deepak.

"My knee really really hurts and well everyone's there, so can you please reply?"

"Chinnu say yes!

Chinnu say yes!

Chinnu say yes!
