Our Journey Of Love (Completed)

17. Crying and Kissing

RAM'S POV:

"You are going to be the death of me. Did anyone told you that you overthink and go out of this universe with your imagination?" I asked her. She negatively nodded her head while sniffing. I want to scold her for her carelessness. But seeing her innocent face, I restrained myself from doing that. "Stop crying, for god's sake. I cant see you like this," she started crying even more after I said this. Oh god! What have I done now? I wiped her tears with my hands and bent her head to rest on my chest.

"Please don't cry, Tara. I cannot see you like this. Don't you want to hear my confession?" I asked her in a gentle voice. Still no response.

"You know, when I saw you for the first time, my jaw dropped on the ground. Till my friends patted me on my back, I was in a trance. What I liked the most about you is your innocence. I mentally fixed that you will be my love from that minute, and I will try everything to make this arranged marriage work. When Pranav and Pranavi tricked us and made us meet for the weekend, I was so happy. You don't know how many times I thanked them mentally, not physically, though, because I don't want to give them more satisfaction.

Every time you talked about Abhi, I felt hurt and wanted to punch him. You know, I was jealous of Abhi because he knows you more than me, and it is evident that he is more important to you than me, at least at that time. When you said about Abhi's proposal, I got scared. I thought that you would leave me. But when you said that he was just your best friend and you don't feel anything else for him, I felt happy.

And when you shifted to Bangalore, my happiness felt no bounds. But after spending some days with you, I realized that there is more to you than your brave façade. That hurt look on your face when I said that I agreed to this marriage because of my family is still fresh in my mind. I felt the urge to protect you from any danger. And on my birthday, I realized how important you are to me. The days I spent with you are pure bliss. I even come to like your punches.

I am still saying that I don't care about your past. I don't care about your feelings for Krish unless you are still having any feelings for him. I fell for you on the day of our engagement itself. If my actions didn't convey to you that already, then I am saying this for you in words. I like you, Tara, more than you like me," I finished my long story. She is silently listening to me all this time. Her eyes started pouring again. My shirt got drenched with her tears. She lifted her head from my chest and looked into my eyes.

"I don't even know how to express my happiness. I thought that God had not included a love chapter in my life," she said while crying.

"I am taking that these tears are due to happiness and not sad," I asked her. "Of course, why would I be sad even after your declaration. I don't know I had that much effect on you." "What can I say? I will not be able to find another amazing girl who scares everyone with her punches like you" With that. She started to punch me on my chest. I hold both of her hands with my hands and stopped her punches. She looked up at me.

Both of us sat there, staring at each other. Her nose looked cute after all the sniffing, and her cheeks became puffed. I so wanted to kiss her. This is going to be my first kiss. I don't know how to kiss. I just saw it in movies. I leaned forward to kiss her, and she did the same. And BAM!! Our lips met and a sweet sensation generated in my body. We separated after some time. I don't have any words to describe the kiss.

"Can I get one more kiss, please?" I asked her. Even before she nodded her head, I picked her and placed her on my lap, and snaked my arm around her waist. She also circled her arms around my neck and brought her head close to mine. We both lost in our world. Suddenly my phone started to ring in my pant pockets.

I don't want to end this kiss, but the sound is becoming louder. She shifted to sit beside me, still in a daze. For a minute, I forget about my phone while seeing her expressions. I am sure that mine also reciprocate the same. But I brought out from my thoughts due to the phone call again. I fished out my mobile from the pocket. It is Pranav. I picked up the call.

"Where the hell are you, man? And is Tara with you?" he asked in a loud voice.

"Why are you shouting, dude? We both came for a walk. We are sitting in the park."

"Do you realize what time it is, and do you know how Pranavi panicked when she did not saw Tara beside her at this time?" Then only I checked the time. It is 12.37. Shit! We both are in deep trouble. We did not even notice the time.

"Sorry, bro! We are on our way back to the apartment. Inform this to Pranavi also." I cut the call without hearing his reply.

"I think we are going to get a long lecture from your BIL. Let's go," I said without moving from the place.

"I don't want to leave right now. Can't, we spend some more time here," she asked me while pouting.

"Yes, we can, Tara. But only if you like your BIL or Pranavi to kill me," I said. And it is true. I know that I am going to get some colorful words or maybe even some beatings from Pranav, depending on my luck.

"Haha! At least they are not going to use their man force on me," she said. I just pecked her cute lips one last time before getting up. She also stood up from there, but she tumbled. We forgot about her leg.

"How about a piggyback ride?" I asked her. She nodded her head and got on my back.

We returned while talking to each other. Most of the talking is done by her, and panting is done by me due to her weight.
