"I'll answer your previous question some other time, if you agree to meet again," I asked softly, my voice laced with hope.
"I will be waiting then" She answered with a warm smile
"Can I consider that a yes for our future meeting? Can I hope for a future with you, Lavanya?" I asked
I was silently praying to every god in the universe for her to say yes. The possibility of rejection hadn't bothered me much before, but I cared now, and I was utterly terrified of hearing a no.
Her smile widened, and she nodded, keeping her gaze down.

She cleared her throat, and said smiling, "Chalein? 2min kabke khatam ho gye."
I chuckled saying "Chaliye"
"2 minutes kya?....Aapke saath toh 2 zamane bhi kam padd zayenge hamein." I thought while following her.

His Arranged Wife
" Why are you kissing me? Go and look for your ex-girlfriend." She said while looking away but not getting away from me. I leaned closer and kissed her cheeks. " You are my wife, darling. Why would I look for someone else?" " You invited your girlfriend here. " " No , I didn't. Sharad did." I answered and she was still looking away. " I know that. She told me." " You met her and also talked to her? " " Yes. She came looking for me earlier. She said a lot of things about you." She said while looking at me this time and I waited for her to continue. " Yes. So far it is. Then?" " She told me that you seemed to have changed. You were not like this when you were dating her. You never picked her up from college or the workplace, you never lowered down to the level of her eyes to talk to her as you do to me and she saw it at the airport. You were never possessive of her the way you are with me as you hold my wrist and drag me away from the negativity as you did at the airport. She told me so many things. She said that she realized it now that you have finally....." She stopped and looked me in the eyes. " Finally... I have fallen for someone so deeply and finally I understand the meaning of love and the necessity of it." I completed it and she didn't say anything, just looked at me searching for sincerity in my eyes while my heart was dancing inside my rib cage. " You were never in love, Rudra." She whispered while touching my cheeks and I inhaled a breath, " You had infatuation or maybe you were afraid to break your friend's heart. You never made her feel special." She said softly and I kissed her palm. Instagram: @__aehrsy__Complete

In love with my husband
"Is she your wife?" she asked hesitantly. "Yes", Avishek said no more. Is he not going to introduce me? I should leave. It's clear, they wanted to be alone, to talk about whatever the hell they wanted to talk. I managed a smile and said, "I'll wait in the car", and left before anyone said anything. I walked out of the café, walked to the car, opened the door and flopped into the passenger seat. She's back. The love of his life, she's back. Whenever my mind wandered about Avishek's past, I had always pictured that girl as this beautiful woman who turned heads when she walked into the room. I was right. Ruchika was beautiful. Even with dark circles under her eyes, messy hair that looked like she hadn't washed it for days, her tired smile, she was still beautiful. I could only imagine how she was when they were young. Why now though? After all these years?Complete

Sayantika lifted her head, her face a mask of indifference, while Vedikaa looked up at both of them, confusion etched into her young features. "I was married,not anymore" Her voice was steady, emotionless. She gripped Vedikaa's hand and began to walk away, but Abhiansh, desperate for answers, grabbed her wrist, halting her steps. The touch sent a shock through them both, years of unsaid words trapped in that single gesture. She turned back, her gaze falling to his hand on her wrist, then lifting to meet his eyes. "It would be better if you left my hand, Mr. Shakhawat. You're here for your work," she said coldly, her words like ice. With a sharp jerk, she freed herself from his grip, and walked away, leaving him to collapse under the weight of everything left unspoken. As she disappeared from view, a broken whisper slipped from his lips.

He exhaled, running a hand through his hair. "Roop, shaadi kisi majboori mein nahi ki jati." (Marriage isn't something that should happen out of compulsion.) A bitter smile tugged at my lips. "Yahi toh farq hai tumhari aur meri zindagi mein, Anirudh. Tumhare paas choice hai, mere paas nahi." (That's the difference between your life and mine, Anirudh. You have a choice. I don't.) His expression darkened. "Main tumhari family se baat karunga-" "Nahi!" I cut him off, my voice sharp with desperation. "You won't understand. You've never seen helplessness, Anirudh. You don't know that when a girl has no options, she only looks for survival." A strange silence stretched between us, thick with unspoken pain. Anirudh sighed and leaned back against the bench, his fingers tapping against his knee. "You're telling me you'd marry any stranger just because you have no other way out?" I stiffened. "You're not a stranger." His lips quirked up, almost amused. "Until a day ago, I was." I clenched my fists. "I don't care who you are. I just need to accept this match, or the other option will destroy me." Anirudh fell silent, his gaze steady on me. The playfulness in his eyes faded, replaced by something more intense, more thoughtful. Finally, he asked, "And what if I tell you that I don't want to marry you either?"Complete
