Flashback continues…
Finally, food has arrived.
"Ok ok .. let's eat now," Dylan said as nothing happened.
"hmm, ok " she replied and 'well know that she can not win against Dylan. He is such a cunning fox' riha thought and chuckled.
Then they started to have their food. "By the way Dylan, how's your work going on? What about the new project, you trying to win?" riha asked with chewing food.
"Yaa, all goods and that new project, I am trying hard and hoping that it will be in my favour within a week" He smiled and said then
he noticed that Riha's hair falling in her food then quickly he stand up and was about to tugging her hair then Riha's voice interrupted him.
"What are you doing, Dylan?" riha asked confusingly.
"Nothing baby, just about to tug your hair. It is disturbing you to eat" Dylan said to her innocently and tugged her with his satin's pocket square.
It made her heart beat faster And riha raised her faced at Dylan and with a little smile and whispered "thank you"
"Always welcome baby" he replied and gave a peck on her lips.
It is always making her heart flutter. Sometimes little things matter in a relationship. Its makes that how much you important in someone's heart.
He sat back in his seat and asked that "what about Kia and nova? How they are doing?"
"Ohh, they are doing fine but Kia is searching for a new job. I told you earlier that something had happened in her previous office so now she is searching for a new job " Riha replied with enthusiast.
"by the way, our company has some vacancy so you can tell her about this" Dylan suggested riha.
She nodded and replied that "see, you know that Kia is a very much self-concerned girl. She will not take help from anyone until it's too urgent still I will convey your message to her.
He nodded and smiled.
After that, they finished their food.
Suddenly, they could hear some romantic music (thousands of years) coming from their background.
'Hearts beats fast
Colours and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone
All my doubt suddenly goes away somehow"
They both are listening to songs and staring at each other eyes and lost in their own world, no one utter any words and some sensation going on their body, yes their hearts states beating faster and remembering the promises they gave each other and the colour of their heart-changing like the season. Yes, it is difficult to accept the gesture they are showing each other because it is like a fantasy that they are in but it is the real feeling, indeed it is the beautiful reality.
'One step closer
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
When they are lost in their world"
Just that time fireworks boomed in the sky. Dylan had come to Riha's side and tightly hold her nervously.
Riha looked toward the sky and mesmerizing the beautiful firework was going on and that time she was about to say something then words reflecting in the sky that "will you marry me riha?"
After seeing the proposal, riha dumbfoundedly staring Dylan's eye and ask with shivering lips that "what is this, Dylan? "
Dylan went down on his knee and said that "riha, will be my wife? I know that you are not accepting this thing but I want to spend my whole life with you?"
"But why me Dylan? you deserve better. You know who I am and from where I belong. I never think to marry you?" She said with watery eyes.
Then slowly Dylan stands up and holds her shoulder tightly and calmly said that "first, riha look into my eyes?"
she not moving her head and a lot of things are going in her head and asked herself repeatedly In her mind that 'why me, why me? '
"Please riha?"
After 5 seconds, she raised her head and looked into his eyes.
" Why are you crying, I can not afford to see a tear in your eyes. Please baby, look in my eyes, what is reflected?"
With shivering lips and moisturizing eyes, she replied that "you"
"See, riha. You can see in me eyes, You are the only one, with whom I dreamt of spending my entire life. I know that you always think that "why you" but why not you baby. When I saw u for the first time that time I decided that you are the only one for me, you are the most beautiful person in my eyes, baby. You are the only woman in my heart. Yes, I have a lot of options but you are not an option, You are my life and you are my woman who I need afterlife too. You do not have to answer right now baby. I can wait"
Dylan replied in a calm voice.
Riha staring him with watery eyes and feeling melancholy. Her mind is blank, feeling that she can not think anymore. She never expected that Dylan will propose to her. She feels attracted toward him when she saw him for the first. She never had such feeling for anyone earlier.That time, she never thought that he feels the same for her aswell. After that, he was pursuing her to become his girlfriend. She accepted it with all heart and moved with him. As she believe that not everyone has a privilege of staying together with loved ones.For riha, spending little time with someone you love, is the most precious thing in the world.
She always believes that We do not know the future but why not we should enjoy the present moments and live life fully. But she never thought In her dream that 'one day, he proposed her for marriage. It is not like that she does not trust him rather Dylan always shows her that how much he adores her. Truly said she has her own insecurities.
Now she is blank
Dylan did not get any answered for 5 minutes. He is getting anxious in passing each minute. Then suddenly, he heard that "Dylan, can we go home right now?"
"Yes baby, definitely let's go," Dylan said nervously.
After that, both hopped in his black Acura NSX.
Dylan driving the car and did not see any expression on Riha's face. She lied back on her seat and closed her eyes. He is feeling so much anxious each passing second. Could not think that what he should do?
'Maybe, this was not the right time to propose to her. You stupid Dylan, it is your fault' he scolded himself in his mind.
After reached home. Riha directly went to the bathroom and freshen up. She lied down on her bed.
Dylan looked at her anxiously because she did not say any single words to her after hopping in the car. Hesitantly, he lied down beside her.
