Decision making is a crucial part of a businessman's life. Heck, it is crucial even in normal day to day life!

Vikram very well knew the importance of a good decision making and its outcomes. But here he stood in front of the large doors of Raheja Mansion with fear gripping his entire being.

He had taken a decision that will impact his entire life! To top it off, it is not only his life but also his father's, his friends' and moreover her side of the family!

When Mr. Mishra had begged for his daughter's happiness Vikram was stumped, perhaps only for the third time in his life. First being the news of Sneha and Rahul running away to get married, second of his Maa and her deeds and third was that very moment.

The feelings he had for Juhi had only intensified in those six months of separation. He was trying his best to move on but the stupid feelings, they only intensified. So when Mr. Mishra had knocked on the very doors he was hesitating to enter, he had also knocked some sense into his brain.

He had fallen in love with Juhi! When, where, how he had no idea. This was why he tried suppressing the feelings but couldn't overcome them. This was why her smiling face didn't spare him in the day nor in the dreamland.

Now here he stood, rubbing his arms and scrambling his feet to gather an ounce of energy. He had been repeating the same for the past fifteen minutes.

His thoughts were playing ringa-ringa-roses and the much needed strength deserted was nowhere to be found.

Suddenly, the sound of a bell ringing was heard. To be precise it was the doorbell of his house. But who could press it when he had not moved a muscle in its direction yet!

He turned around and saw a smirking Sneha, Rahul and Ashok. All three sporting the same smirking expression! Before he could start his rant about ruining his prep time the door opened.

This is it, Vikram thought.

And soon followed the voice of his father, " Hey, Sneha, Rahul and Ashok you all are here! What a pleasant surprise!"

" You are gonna be surprised for life uncle.." , Ashok mumbled.

"Ouch! What is wrong with you Sneha?" Ashok grumbled. She had elbowed him swiftly he did not see it coming.

Sneha covered it up quickly hoping that Raheja uncle had not heard Ashok's mumbling. However bad she wanted to tease Vikram, she knew this moment was serious and now she had stepped into her serious role of a good secretary and a helping sister.

"You kids!" Raheja uncle chuckled at the siblings and turned to look at his son,    " Why are you so quiet, Vikram?"

" Uh...dad..uh", Vikram hesitated.

" Speak up, Vikram!" , Mr. Raheja said impatiently.

Taking a deep breath he said, " I proposed Juhi and she said Yes."

" What?"

Everybody waited with bated breaths. Mr. Raheja seemed to be caught off guard. He definitely was not expecting this news.

Sneha had quickly reached for Vikram's hand, rubbing it gently to calm him down. While Rahul and Ashok had kept a supporting hand on his shoulder.

They all were now waiting for Mr. Raheja's reaction.

Juhi was on the top of the world. Singing, dancing, cooking even nothing helped her excited self calm down.

Vikram proposed!

She said Yes!

There was a ring on her finger!
