Krish and I drive back home in the early evening.
"Call uncle and inform him that we have reached home", Krish says as we sink onto the sofa set
"I will. Thank you so much for spending time with me, sweetheart. Having you by my side today made me so happy."
"How can I miss this, remember one of my three wishes is to keep you happy. I'm so proud of you dear."
No, I'm getting emotional thinking about how my life is filled with satisfaction because of him but I don't want to cry. A lump forms in my throat and he puts his arms around me and I hug him hard. I can't help tears pool in my eyes.
"Hey, sweetheart" Krish whispers, and his grip around me gets tighter "Do you want to drench my shirt again. Wait let go of me so that I can make you some tea", he whispers in my ears
I laugh in spite of tears flowing down my eyes. I hit him hard on his stomach. He walks into the kitchen to prepare tea, rubbing the place where I elbowed him. He wears an apron on his grey suit which looks really comical on him so I click a photo of him without his knowledge. I remember dad complaining about him, saying that he has started to cook well nowadays and his tea is so good, but he always forgets to add garlic, salt, and coriander in most of the dishes. I chuckle thinking about dad's facial reactions when he was complaining about my boyfriend's cooking. Krish comes out of the kitchen and hands me my cup of tea. We finish the tea.
"How does it taste?" he asked
"Good. Don't you drink tea with a little more sugar"
"My sugar is sitting right in front of me", he hugs me.
"But I like to drink tea without your cheesy sweet lines"
"Doesn't this statement have a lot of sourness in it, why can't you add sweetness to it"
"Krish too much sweetness will lead to diabetes"
"If the reason is you I'm always ready to be a diabetic"
"Now enough of being clingy and stop all your flirting. By the way, you look hilarious with this suit and apron"
"Hey, not at all look properly don't I look like a master chef."
"Yeah I know, look that's why I have captured this moment"
"Wow! Look at that I'm so handsome we need to frame it and hang it in our room it will look awesome"
"Yeah why not you look so handsome like a joker right we should frame it", I said with a mocking tone and he pouted.
"By the way Megha shall we go out tomorrow"
"Sure we will, but where are we going tomorrow?"
"You will get to know tomorrow. Now go and sleep. Good night sweet dreams and I love you Megha"
"Love you too, Krish", I said giving him a quick hug, kissing his forehead, and hand over him the cup of tea. He smiles, his chocolate brown eyes, glowing as he stands looking at me. I walk back into the room and I wander lethargically in my room. Like always sleeping is very difficult because even I don't know the reason behind it but still I try to sleep by rolling all around the bed and cuddling with my pillow but everything goes in vain I wasn't able to sleep, so I take my mobile phone and scroll through the pictures which were clicked, dad has really improved in his photography skills, I loved the photos which were clicked by him and also the photos in which Krish and I are together. One among all the photos was the best, it had Krish and me standing next to each other, his hand around my waist and both of us looking at each other, I loved it so much so decided to keep it as my wallpaper and profile photo. Then I change my WhatsApp profile photo. A few seconds after it got uploaded, Krish was in my room. He walked to me and sat at the edge of the bed he was staring at me and his eyes were looking very angry, he forcefully tucked me inside the bedsheet and kissed my forehead.
"Why are you still awake?", he questioned me with a fake stern look on his face which looks hilarious.
"I am not able to sleep", I answered him with a serious face trying hard not to laugh.
"You have to sleep now or else you won't wake up tomorrow"
"Then why don't you sleep next to me you know I sleep well beside you", I mutter
"You can tell it louder"
"I have something called shyness"
"Oh my darling also knows to be shy"
"Now shut up and sleep next to me", I said and he hurriedly slept next to me holding me tight in his embrace and I fall asleep soon. I don't know how but whenever he is next to me sleeping is like a piece of cake. I realized that he is my happiness, he is the person I am in love with unconditionally and indefinitely. My love for him was beyond words, limits, and imagination.
