Kartik's POV
Ahhh!! Just look at her..
Just look at her!!
I can't take my eyes off.
Looking at her happiness makes all these things worth doing. I was tensed of the thought since morning that whether she'll like this all Or not.
But now seeing her smile takes away all my stress. All I can feel at this moment is satisfaction of making her happy again.
I made sure to arrange each and every thing under my supervision just the way she like. I kept in mind all her favourites and likes.
She like pink colour, I covered every corner with pink flowers.
She like stars. I arranged beautiful stars all around.
She like water bubbles, I filled all our surroundings with the bubbles.
She like balloons, I decoreted them all around too.
She asked for flower, I made sure to give her every colour of it.
Just everything she ever dreamt of. Everything she asked for. Everything she wished for.
Her wish is command and prime responsibility for me.
And this is just the beginning.
"What else can be more beautiful than this" She asked looking at me.
I wiped off the tears rolling down her cheeks softly.
No matter if these are for happy feelings or sad feelings, I just don't like them.
I smiled looking at her and took out a small box from my coat pocket.
She stood up looking at that small red heart shaped box with her hands covering her mouth.
She was looking so shocked.
Inside that little box was a Tiffany 2.11-carat heart shaped fancy pink diamond is mounted in a contour ring of elegant proportions. And KS is engraved between it. The stone is accompanied by round white diamonds and is set in platinum, and is priced at $2 million dollars.
I especially bought this weeks ago for my sweeta and thought of giving her on her birthday which is after a month.
But today, as I wanted to do everything perfect.
And also wanted to compensate for the guilt of making her sad the whole fucking day.
I thought of giving her this today itself.
If one day, why not today.
She looked at it with her big eyes.
As I opened it with that beautiful ring shining inside but instead of looking at ring she looked at me for two seconds and then blinked her eyes and the next second she was screaming.
She was screaming so muchhh.
Yes of course in happiness.
"Kartikkk Kartikkk Kartikkk. Is it a dreammmm??? And if it is I don't want to wake up ever" She screamed and did little jumps.
She jumped and hopped around in happiness and yelled happily,
"I..... Can't believe thissssss Ahhhhhhhhh"
I just looked at my innocent baby dancing in happiness.
After complete ten minutes of dancing around in happiness she stood in front of me and smiled.
"Okay okay, Hahhh!! Shivi breathhh" She said to herself and took deep breaths.
"Ohhhh Myyyy Godddddd" She screamed again and almost fell on me in a hug.
I kept my other hand on the ground to prevent us both from falling and held her in my other arm securely.
Uffffff my kiddooo!!!
"Kartiikkkkkkkkkkk I CAN'T BELIEVE THISSSSS" She yelled again.
"Babyyy, but itsss trueee" I screamed with same excitement and she hugged me tightly.
"Are you really proposing me" She said out of no where pulling her head back.
I looked at her and replied,
"Mera bachaa, you are already mine. I am just making it official. Just like your college friends exchange rings. "
I am just trying to become a perfect boyfriend for her.
And the next moment she placed a soft peck on my lips.
I looked at her surprised.
She never pecked on my lips before by herself.
Does she really did it???
I blinked my eyes in shock.
And she hid her face in my chest.
"Don't look at me like this, am feeling shy" She said slowly.
I held the back of her neck and made her look up.
My lips were in no second on her and I devored her soft juicy lips slowly.
The sound of voilen, the soft fragrance of flowers and dancing bubbles all were making this moment special.
I kissed her so slowly and softly.
The moon was shining bright above us. It's as if time stands still, and the world around us melts away, leaving only the two of us, lost in the magic of the moment
It was sending sends shivers down my spine, and the sweetness of her breath mingles with mine, creating a heady, intoxicating sensation.
The moon above casts a silver glow, illuminating the night with a soft, ethereal light, making the moment feel even more dreamy and surreal.
I made sure to savor every moment, every sensation, and every emotion, making the experience feel like a precious, timeless treasure.
It's as if the universe has conspired to bring you closer, and the moon is shining down its blessing on our love.
At this moment, everything feels so perfect, and my heart is filled with the feeling of love and desire.
The desire of her.
I pulled back and she was looking so red.
I love when she blushes.
When she blushes because of me.
I gently cupped her face and creased her cheeks looking into the depths of her eyes.
I made her sit on my knee.
And then I held that ring and she covered her face underneath her one hand.
I looked at her and removed her hand.
I want to see her expressions.
I want to capture every second in my heart forever.
With the hand at her back, I pulled her more closer to me and then I securely held her left hand in my hand.
I have heard that the fourth finger of the left hand had a vein that ran directly to the heart.
So I chose to make her wear the ring in that finger as a symbol of love.
I pecked her hand with sweetness and then slowly slid that ring into her finger.
And with that, the whole sky filled with flying lanterns.
Once when I was with shivi, I saw her excitedly looking at these lanterns.
So here we are.
I made sure that the whole sky get covered in these bright lanterns the moment her finger slid into this ring.
She looked up with wide mouth and exclaimed expressions.
Just like an excited child.
"Kartikkkkkkkkk, look" She exclaimed.
I wrapped my arms around her and just looked at her face.
Literally, I don't want to miss any second of this night.
Not only this night, but every second I spend with her is precious for me and I want her to spend every second with me only.
In my arms, in front of my eyes.
Whole sky was shining brightly.
I wanted her to remember this night forever, so I did the every possible thing.
Not the big things, but small things. Just the way she like.
She looked back at me with a beautiful smile.
And here am dead.
I took a deep breath.
"Now you are completely connected to me my sweeta. And am connected to you.
I know it's just a ring. But believe me, my heart beats just because of you. My lungs work, just because of you. I open my eyes, just to see you. My ear works, just to listen your voice. I speak just to tell you how much I love you.
I am alive because I am with you. Without you am no one. You complete me Shivi. You complete me.
We aren't Kartik and Shivanya, But Karanya.
Two bodies with one soul." I said with happy tears in my eyes.
"Words aren't enough to express my love for you. But believe me on my every cell, the only name you'll find is of your."
"Shivanya hai toh Kartik Zinda hai.
Shivanya hai toh Kartik, Kartik hai...!!!
Meri sansein, meri dadhkan sabh aap hi se hai.
Apne Kartik ko kabhi chodh kar mat jaiye ga aap"
I looked at her and her eyes too were filled with tears.
"Oyeee, Sorry, I didn't wanted to make you emotional" I said cupping her face and my head was touched with her.
I wiped her tears and she wiped mine.
"Kartik, I don't know how to say, what to say. But I can't thank god enough for giving me you. A gem which is hard to find.
You aren't just my love, but my life, my home, my happy place, my safe place my everything...!!!
If I completes you, I am also incomplete without you!!
Agar, Kartik, Shivanya ki vajh se zinda hai.....
Toh Shivanya ki zindagee bhi Kartik se hi hai...
Agar, Kartik ki sansein Shivanya se hai...
Toh Shivanya ki sansein lene ki vajh bhi Kartik hi hai.
Agar, Kartik ki dhadhkan Shivanya se hai....
Toh Shivanya ke dil ki dhadhkan ki vajh bhi kartik hi hai.....
Kartik hai toh Shivanya hai...
Warna Shivanya... "
"Shhhhhhh... I dare you to speak a word after this" I placed my finger on her lips before she utter that word.
And at this moment we both were in tears, I didn't want this.
I didn't want this!!
This was supposed to be A happy night....!!!
Ughhhhh.....
I managed to smile again.
And I wiped tears from her cheek and pulled her into my embrace.
While creasing her head, I said softly "No more tears now, see how beautiful everything is....
Let's live our moment hmm"
And she nodded on my chest and looked at me.
"Thank you Kartik" She said.
"Now you'll say thank you to me?? Hmm" I said in a teasing strict tone.
"Oh sorry sorry, I meann.... Ahhhh... I love youu" She said smiling.
"I love you more meri jaan" I said pecking her head.
"But my knee is aching now" I said in a fake dramatic way.
"Oopsss sorry sorry sorry" She said and stood up.
She streatched her little hand towards me to support me to stand.
I looked at her and smiled shaking my head.
I took her hand and creased that ring befire pecking it again and then stood up.
This ring was before just a piece of stone but now in my sweeta's finger it looks 100 times better.
I held her hand in mine, and looked at her and all the time time smile never left my face.
All because my little kiddo is happy.
"Time for my favorite part, sweeta" I said looking at her.
She looked at me with confusion. Again.
Believe me sweeta, whenever you'll think it's over a new surprise would bring more happiness on yoir smile.
And I love to see her like this.
For these little moments, I can do anything.
Just anything.
I can even give away my everything just to see her happy face.
Even if I have to give myself to make her smile, I'll not give that a second thought.
Inki muskurahat dekhkar hi toh jee rahe hain hum.
And I smiled looking at her.
Suddenly, men with so many food items started arranging them on the table.
Everything was finalized according to her taste.
Just the way she likes.
And the surrounding filled with sweet and yummy fragrance of those dishes with mixture of light fragrance of flowers and bubbles.
Just a perfect mixture.
Shs first looked at her favorite dishes and then at me with joy filled her face.
"Kartikk, You know you are the best" She exclaimed.
I chuckled and pecked her head.
"Yeah, of course I know. That's why I have you" I replied.
And she blushed again.
And trust me.
This is all my eyes wanted to see. My eyes crave to see.
The soft blush on her face gives me joy of next level.
I held her hand and walked towards the table.
I made sure to arrange both the chairs at same side because I don't want her to be away from me. I want her to be with me every second.
I want her in my embrace for every second of my life. And I don't want to live that second where she is not near me.
I left her hand and pulled back the chair.
"Have seat, My young beautiful lady" I said gesturing her to sit.
She smiled and sat with her gaze low.
I can feel how much she is struggling to control her red cherry cheeks.
And I am enjoying this.
She is happy. I am happy!!
That's all what matters.
I sat beside her and before she eat anything else, I pulled the cake towards us.
"Sweeta, Sweeta, Sweeta, first have this" I said excitedly.
I know, I am behaving like a kid. But the truth is, I am equally excited as her at this moment.
And more than excitement, I am tensed. I am tensed of the thought whether she'll like this or not.
And the thing is, I wasn't this stressed even at my first business meet as CEO.
"Is it special one kartik" She asked.
"Yeah very special" I said and took the knife.
"Come let's cut" I said securely holding her hand in mine.
We cut that cake.
She took a bite and stretched her hand towards me.
I looked at her softly and pecked her hand.
"First you try it" I said and made her eat piece of it which was in my hand.
She ate it.
And my heart beat raised.
I looked at her carefully, to see her expression.
To make sure she like it.
Ahhhh...! She closed her eyes and ate that cake.
Of course, it's also her favorite one. A chocolate cake.
It feels like....
"Kartikkkk, I loveee it" She said finally liking her fingers.
And haah!! I took a breath.
"It's the tastiest one, I ever had.
You made it na??" She asked happily.
Ohhhh she loved it..!
Ufff my heart....!!
But wait.... One second....!!
"How do you know that???" I asked raising my eyebrow.
She took another bite and ate it like a kiddo. My kiddo.
"Of course I know!! I know you made this.... I know the taste og your hands!! And sachii it's the best thing I ate" She said eating that piece.
I smiled and shaked my head.
This cake is my fourth attempt. Just making this took me two hours. Only I know how I managed shopping, decorations and this cake and everything and yeah that make up skills too in less than five hours.
But now everything feels like worth doing!!!!
And she made me eat too.
My baby loved it...!
Oh I am on cloud nine at this moment...!!
"Kartikkkkkk.....!!!" She exclaimed again...
"Hnji hnji sweeta" I asked looking at her.
"Listen the tune" She said pointing her finger in air.
"Tune???" I asked confused.
"Yeahhhhh the songggg.... " She said again...
I tried to focus on the tune.
I listened it somewhere....
But where???
"Toota jo kabhi taara, sajna ve!
Tujhe Rabb se maanga
Rabb se jo maanga mileya ve.."
She started singing along the tune....
Her voiceeee!!!!
A Bliss to my ears.
Oh I remember the song!!!
"Tu mileya to jaane na dungi main" I completed the lyrics softly.
And stood up and kneeled near her.
"Would you like to dance with me preety lady" I asked in the softest tone possibile.
She looked at me and then took of my hand.
"Would be my pleasure my handsome man" She replied.
"Hayeeeeeeeee!!!!! Maar hi dengi aap hume ek din" I said holding her hand.
And she giggled.
I stood up and kept her hand slowly on my shoulder and other on her waist.
I pulled her close to me and swayed slowly with the tune.
Haan mene suni hai pariyo ki kahanai, waisa hi noor tera chehra hai tera Ruhani
I sang lyrics along the tune and rolled her around with my finger.
I then pulled her again towards me that both her hand landed on my chest and my arms caged around her waist.
We swayed in each others arm at that place looking into each others eyes.
Everything around us got blurred. Only I can see is the depths of her eyes. All I can hear is her heart beat.
Aa tujhko mei apni
Baaho mei chipa loon
Haan apni is zameen ko karodon mei aasmani
Her breaths were slow and deep. I can feel them on my face as I pulled her more up towards me. She was tiptoed.
I held her hands and moved her around. So that her back collided my front.
Her body perfectly moulded into mine. Just like it's sculpted just for me and mine for hers.
I creased the tip of my nose softly on her neck and she shivered under my touch.
Her chest heaved up and down slowly. And she held my hands tightly. And wave of emotions started flowing in my body. Butterflies would be a very small word to describe.
Zindagee rok doon mei
Ab apne samne
Pal do pal jo ruke
Tu mere saath mei
I sang the lyrics along the song as I moved her again to my side.
And pecked her forhead.
I placed both her hands on my shoulder and picked her up from the waist.
I twirled her around just the way her Disney couples do.
I know she likes that.
I always had thought of recreating her favorite moments.
And this is the best moment to recreate.
Under the starry sky, a beautiful moon and lanterns, I twirled her around just like a princess.
My Princess.
And she screamed happily.
She opened her arms wide as I moved her around and then she hugged me tightly while she was still in ny arms.
I held her safely and securely in my arms and hugged her back.
"I love you" She utttered while her head was between my neck and shoulder.
I pecked her shoulder and replied, "I love you the most"
Can I just stop this moment forever??!
Can this moment last till eternity???
Author's POV
While the couple was enjoying their best moments together.
Someone was keeping a constant eye on them.
And Somewhere someone was smirking looking at their happy photos.
Is she jealoused???
No not at all.
She was feeling pity.
What was in her mind??
No one can guess instead of her.
Was that thing prooves as an evil eye on our perfect couple?
Or will Kartik again be successful in saving her dearest sweeta!!
Only God knows.
She rolled the paper weight on the table with the same evil smile on her face which matches her heart. Her intensions.
She stood up and looked at the man sitting in front of him.
"So what yoh thought of Doing next??" He asked her.
She sipped her wine slowly and replied, "It's the time. Do that"
"Are you sure? Think again" He asked in a flat tone.
Because he knows this is going to happen one day.
"Yeah, too much of their cute moments. Let's enjoy some tears" She replied.
He sighed and replied, "As you say"
And she just smirked,
At the thought of eclipse on their beautiful moon.
At the thought of drying their fresh roses.
At the thought of disappearing all the lanterns and spread of darkness.
At the thought of bursting all the bubbles and leaving behind just some dried droplets.
At the thought of ending the soothing music leaving behind just memories of lyrics.
At the thought of leaving behind just a ring with shattered dreams.
At the thought of end of their
Karanya!!!
And she laughed.
A merciless laugh.
