The alarm kept on the side table buzzed making my eyes flickered. I gently turned to the other side, and extended my arms towards the alarm to switch it off. I looked at it as the time showed, 6 AM.
Turning back to my original position, I saw my Sunflower sleeping peacefully beside me in my arms. My lips automatically curled into a smile.
I pecked her cheeks, then her nose, then her forehead and started giving her sloppy kisses on her face.
Her eyes frowned a little. She snuggled her face into my neck while muttering, “Let me sleep, Vayu!”
I chuckled and continued peppering kisses over her face. I sometimes love irritating her.
She pushed me slightly and kept a pillow in front of her face and shouted, “Sone de naaa!”
“Okay okay sorry!” I whispered, slipping down near her chest. Removing the pillow from in between, I dipped my face between his chest.
Inhaling deeply her lavender body wash entered my nostril making me mesmerised. “You smell amazing!” I mumbled, slipping my hands inside her t-shirt.
“Kya kar raha hai, pareshan mat kar na..” she whispered in her sleepy voice.
“Sleep Sunflower, let me do my business!” I replied, giving open mouth kisses to her neck.
My hands worked on her breasts. Her hands held my nape as I dipped my face in the crook of her neck.
“Mmm..vayu..stopp!” She moaned in sleep.
“I love you so much, Sunflower!” I muttered against her chest.
I held the hem of her t-shirt, lifted it up as I removed it over from her body. She didn't open her eyes while I kept sucking her skin.
“Ahh..Vayu..” she winced as I nibbled over her skin.
Her hands fisted against my hair as she pulled them in sleep. My fingers drawing circles over her bare thighs making her more restless.
“I missed this, Sunflower!” My voice husky and deep as I sucked her chest more.
Her legs resting around my torso while my hands trailed down her butts. She moaned again and finally opened her eyes.
“Good morning, Sunflower!” I wished her pecking her cheeks.
She narrowed her eyes at me and spoke, “Stop annoying me! It's Saturday, let me sleep peacefully.” and turned on the other side, her back facing me.
I threw my arm around her and pulled her towards me, her back touching my chest and whispered, “Let me cradle you in slumber, hmm?”
She nodded slightly and faced me again. Dipping her face in my chest, she whispered in a rarely audible voice, “I love you, Vayu!”
I pecked her forehead pulling her closer to me as she drifted soon in sleep.
Soon slumber embraced me as well.
My sweet sleep was broken when I heard the doorbell ringing. I rubbed my hands over my eyes as I saw the wall clock. It was 8 AM in the morning.
“Who's this so early in the morning?” I heard Vayu's morning voice as I sat up on the bed.
“Let me check!” I said and was about to stand up when I felt a tug at my wrist. I was pulled down on the bed.
“Ouch!” I cried while Vayu spoke, “Ese jaegi?”
I looked down at myself and my cheeks turned red finding myself with a bare chest. I looked back at him , grinning like an idiot.
When did he take off my t-shirt?
“Asshole!” I cursed him under my breath and grabbed my t-shirt. Pulling it over my head I made my way towards the door as the bell was ringing continuously.
I opened the door and there stood my best friend, Tanishka.
“Hiiii babygirl!” She lunged forward and hugged me, making me stumble on my feet.
“Heyyy!” I replied in my sleepy voice.
She pulled away and looked at my messed up state. “Still sleeping?” She questioned moving inside.
“Hmm..I just woke up!” I replied following her.
“Kon hai, Reya?” Vayu's voice came from the room making Tanu stop at her place. She turned around and raised her brows.
“Is it Vayush?” She asked, folding her hands across her chest.
“Obviously it's him!” I replied, going ahead of her.
“What's he doing here?” She asked in curiosity following me. Yes! She didn't know about the accident. Vayu's parents decided not to tell anyone until and unless he's totally out of danger.
Also Tanu was so busy with her training that we didn't have a conversation for the last month.
I told her everything as she entered the room.
“Hey Kashyap!” She greeted Vayu who was sitting on the bed.
“What's up topper?” Vayu replied.
“Standing in all my glory in front of you!” Tanu replied with her usual self confidence.
I tied my hair in a bun and went inside the kitchen to make coffee for us and juice for Vayu.
I entered the room with a tray in my hand and settled beside Vayu keeping the tray on the side table.
“Aaj Delhi kese aa gayi madam aap?” I asked her forwarding her the coffee.
“I've been in Delhi from last one week! Aaj saturday tha, to socha tujhse mil lu!” She replied, sipping on the coffee.
“Keep a check on your social media!” She mocked me while I sighed.
I haven't checked my Instagram for the last 15 days and I rarely checked my WhatsApp as well. I only attended urgent calls or the one from my parents.
“Guys, guess what? I'm getting married!” She declared flaunting her diamond ring.
“Holy fuckkkkk!” I almost screamed and jumped over her in excitement.
“Kon hai vo bechara?” Vayu teased her. She glared at him.
“Dhairya Shekhawat.” She replied.
“OMG! That college senior of yours?” I asked because she told me she was drooling over a senior in her college.
“Yesss!” She replied happily.
“When's the date?” Vayu asked, sipping the juice.
“Not yet decided, but probably by the end of this year.”
“I'm so happy for you, Tanu!” I pulled her in my embrace.
Finishing the coffee, I went inside the bathroom to take a bath.
As soon as Reya entered the bathroom, I turned towards Tanu who was sitting on the other end of the bed.
“Tanu…I'm so glad you came at the last minute! Thanks a lot!” I said in a low voice making sure my Sunflower didn't hear us.
“C'mon Vayush! She's my best friend and so are you! Plus I was in Delhi for a week now, no it's not a big deal!” She replied with a smile.
Yes! She didn't come on her own. I called her because I needed her help. I would have called Navi but she got her assignments at the last minute so I had to call Tanishka.
“You know what you need to do now?” I asked with a hope in my eyes.
“Of course, don't worry! I'll take her to the spa with me and in the meantime you'll do all the necessary prep, right?” she replied.
“Exactly! But make sure she won't get to know about our plan.”
“Don't worry! I know how to handle your Sunflower!” she said with a grin.
I asked her to take her to the spa because of course she needs to be groomed before her Roka. And also knew that she won't agree on going to a spa on her own. In the meantime, I would do everything needed for the surprise I've planned.
Now, I just hope everything runs smoothly. And my little sweet girlfriend won't get suspicious till tonight. Yes! Because finally tonight I'm gonna surprise her and tomorrow our parents will be here for the Roka Ceremony.
My mindful thoughts stopped when Reya came out of the bathroom. She wore a light pink kurti and ankle length trousers.
She came beside me and forwarded my medicines and sat beside me while applying body lotion.
“What do you want to eat, Tanu?” She asked her who was sitting on the couch busy on her phone.
“Let me make pasta for all of us!” Tanu suggested and went inside.
I started poking my index finger on Reya's arm making her glare. “Can I get some of them?” I asked, referring to the pasta.
“You had sandwiches last night too!” She asked, folding her arms across her chest.
“Thode se bas!” I pouted.
“Fine but I'll give you khichdi too!” She said and left for the kitchen.
The day passed out with our never ending gossips about our school time and the clock struck 5 PM.
I signaled Tanu and asked her to take Reya with herself. Initially my Sunflower was not ready to go but somehow I convinced her.
She wasn't ready to leave me alone but Tanu told her it would hardly take an hour or two. Reya kept medicines with a water bottle on the side table and made sure I was perfectly fine.
Once they left, I slowly lifted my legs. I didn't rush things and gently kept my legs on the floor. With all the courage, I tried to stand up.
Initially my legs shook, but I held the edge of the bed for support. Once I felt stable, I lifted my one foot and kept it forward. Following the same thing with my other foot, I finally walked.
I reached the mirror placed on the corner of the room and stood in front of it. I looked at myself in the mirror and my face lit up with a smile.
“You're gonna love the surprise, Sunflower!” I said to myself.
I took slow steps towards the bed again and settled on it before getting my phone. I quickly ordered a cake and customised it accordingly, the way I wanted.
The cake was delivered in approximately half an hour and I kept it inside the freezer away from the sight of my cunning girlfriend.
I loved how the cake turned out. Now I was just waiting for my Sunflower. Though I'm going to surprise her at midnight but I just can't stay away from her for a long time. I know it would be difficult for me when I go back to IMA but let's not think about it.
I rested for sometime and after some time I heard the knob of the door opening. I looked in the direction and my jaw dropped looking at my Sunflower looking no less than a fairy.
Tanu did a great job and I would surely message her for thanking her since she didn't accompany Reya to the home now.
Sunflower's hair fell over her shoulder like a cascade of waves. I didn't know much about the name of the haircut but eventually she was looking perfect.
Her face glowed even more now, her lips adored with light pink lip gloss. She entered the room and looked at me in surprise.
“What happened, Vayu?” she asked in her sweet, concerned voice. She settled beside me on the bed.
“Have you decided to kill me already?” I said tucking the strand of hair behind her ear.
“Shut up!” She replied coyly.
“You look stunning!” I pecked her lips.
“I'm not getting anything, Vayu!” She said in a sad tone.
My brows frowned and I pulled her closer to me. She hugged me suddenly resting her head over my shoulder. “Tu thik hai na?” She whispered.
I patted her back and replied, “Obviously Reya!” But she shook her head, “Then why are you behaving so awkwardly? You suddenly asked for a haircut when you knew your head had injuries, then you're utterly happy for no particular reason and then Tanu came out of nowhere and took me to the spa forcefully. Even you supported her. You know the whole time I was out, my mind was just occupied by you. I was worried about you the whole time because you were alone here. Maa will surely scold me for leaving you here and going to groom myself for no reason. I'm scared..”
“Chuppp!” I stopped her and kept my palm over her mouth.
“Kitna bolti hai tu!” I said with an irritating look. PS: I was just enjoying her annoyed state.
She patted my chest hard this time, making me winch. I removed my hand slowly while my eyes were fixed on her pretty face.
“Babe! You're overthinking.” I calmed her down.
“But..” she said again but I interrupted her.
“Shhh..I'm absolutely fine, Sunflower!” I pestered her for some more time until she was completely satisfied.
Now I'm just waiting for the clock to strike 11 PM.
11.30 PM
“Sunflower!” I heard Vayu's voice from behind as I was busy studying Human Anatomy. I hummed at his call while keeping my sole attention on the book.
“Sun na!” He called out again and I turned around, rubbing my eyes with my hands as I was feeling a little sleepy.
I looked at him, he was grinning like a kid. What's up with him, god?
“Let's sit in the balcony!” He proposed with excitement.
“Kashyap, see the time! It's almost midnight.” I said, closing my book and making my way towards the bed.
“To kya hua! Mujhe neend nahi aa rahi!” He said in a pleasing voice.
“But mujhe aa rahi hai!” I replied pulling the duvet over us.
“You can't sleep right now!” He said suddenly, making me raise my brow in question.
“Please na baby! Just an hour! Pakka!” He requested again and I sighed.
“I'll consult the doctor for this ill behaviour of your's!” I said in a rude tone and stood up from my place and went near him.
“Stop grinning like an idiot!” I mocked and forwarded my hand. He held my hands and stood up slowly and I helped him to the balcony.
We settled on the couch placed in the balcony. I didn't know why Tanu proposed to shift the couch in the balcony. God knows what's going on between these two.
I settled close to him, while my eyes were getting closed due to sleep. I rested my head over the headrest of the couch and leaned against it.
Vayu's arm snaked around my waist, pulling me closer to him. “Don't sleep now!” He whispered in my earlobe and I hummed.
The cool breeze swirling around us makes the surroundings peaceful. My hair fell over my face due to the wind making me irritated. I raised my hands to tie my hair in a bun when Vayu stopped me.
“Keep them open!” He asked me, his words brought a smile to my face.
I laid down on the couch, my head resting on Vayu's thighs. I closed my eyes, making him chuckle, “You're a sleepy head.”
Time passed and the surroundings started getting comfortable and warm. Vayu was continuously checking on the time.
After a few minutes of silence, he spoke up. “What's the date today, Sunflower?”
I thought for a second, and replied, “3rd August!” in a very low voice.
“It's already midnight! So it's 4th baby!” He corrected me caressing my hair. I hummed at it with closed eyes.
“Do you remember anything?” He whispered.
My brows twitched as I thought what he was asking. I sat up and shook my head in a negative response. “No.” I said with a pout.
He chuckled and threw his arm across my shoulder pulling me closer to himself.
His lips touched my cheeks softly as he whispered, “We met today exactly 12 years ago!”
My eyes bulged out of their sockets and I looked at him with surprise. His lips curled into an ear to ear smile.
He was right. It was the 4th of August when I bumped into him. The sleepiness which was in my eyes a few minutes ago, literally disappeared.
“It's been 12 years?” My eyes got filled with tears.
“Yes and even after 12 years, I find myself captivated by the same pair of eyes every day.!” He whispered, slamming his lips over mine.
Tears rolled down my cheeks more as he kissed me. It was passionate and deep.
He pulled away and wiped my tears with his thumb. “I don't like tears in those eyes, Sunflower!” He said kissing my nose.
“Time flies!” I muttered looking at the sky as we sat cosily. “I still wish I hadn't spent those two years apart from you.” his voice came out as a whisper.
“I love you, Vayu!” I said kissing his temples.
“Sunflower! I've something for you.” He said in excitement.
“What?” I asked.
“Close your eyes then!” He requested.
I instantly agreed without any arguments and closed my eyes. I felt him moving a little away from me. What was he doing? I called out his name,
“Vayu?? What are you doing?”
“I'm here only, baby. Don't open your eyes until I say so!” He said and I hummed.
After a few seconds, I heard his voice as he took my hand into his. “Open your eyes, baby!”
I slowly opened them and saw him kneeling down on the floor. My body froze at the sight.
“Vayuuuu..what are you doing?? You'll get hurt, stand up!” I yelled getting myself down the couch and kneeling to his level.
He didn't say anything but smiled. “Oh god, Vayu stop smiling now! Why are you kneeling like this? Your knees..” I was cut by him as he kissed my lips.
“My knees have recovered!” He said pulling away.
My eyes widened at his words. For a second I felt like I was dreaming. I stared at him without blinking. He jolted me off as he said, “You're not dreaming, Sunflower!”
“Vayu!” I cried, lunging forward and hugging him tightly. “Oh God! I can't…I can't..” I sobbed in his embrace. He made me quiet by kissing my lips gently.
“Okay okay..I've something more!” He said pulling away. He wiped my tears again and took out a blue velvet box from the pocket of his trousers.
The box felt familiar but I couldn't remember.
He opened it and it was a gold Sunflower pendant. The one Navi gave me two months back. I didn't wear it till now because I wanted him to make me wear it.
He pulled out the pendant from the box and held it between his fingers and spoke, “Dr. Reya Sharma, can I be your permanent patient? Will you check my pulse when my heart does the tango upon seeing you in all your splendid glory? Will you let me take the last bite of your favourite Mac Maharaja? We can make a deal! I'll let you have the last sip of my favourite coffee and in turn you have to share the last bite of your favourite burger, okay?”
I chuckled at his cute propo…wait. Did he just proposed me? My hands slammed over my lips in shock. My pupil dilated as I deciphered what he actually did just now.
He chuckled at me and pulled away my hand from over my mouth. “Jawab nahi degi?” He asked cutely, pulling me out of my world.
“Vayu..” I cupped his cheeks and started giving open mouth kisses all over his face. My eyes couldn't hold tears, making them roll down my cheeks.
I nodded hastily and blurted, “YESSS!” and hugged him tightly. I couldn't believe he just proposed me with such a surprise.
He leaned forward and wrapped the gold pendant around my neck and locked it from behind.
“You're bound with me for eternity now!” He whispered in my ear licking my earlobe.
I pulled away and looked into his eyes as I spoke, “But I won't share my burger with you!” with a pout.
He sighed and chuckled as he spoke, “Tu nahi sudhregi!”
My eyes fell on the couch where another box was kept. I looked at Vayu and asked, “What's in this?”
“See yourself!” He said and I quickly grabbed it and opened it. My face glowed up when I saw it was my favourite chocolate fudge cake.
But what caught my attention was the inscription on the cake. It said, Will you marry him? Cut me only if it's a yes! *Wink eyes*
I glared at Vayu who was grinning like an idiot.
“You're hilarious!” I chuckled. He stood up suddenly and I was just gawking at him.
He lifted me in his arms with the box in my hand and made our way inside. “Put me down! You haven't recovered fully!” I said on the way but he was too stubborn to listen to me.
He kept me down on the bed and sat beside me as we cut the cake together. “So it's a yes finally!” He whispered and I patted his chest.
Asshole!
“Wait!” I looked at him with narrow eyes. “You said your knees recovered, but the doctor said something else.” I spoke in doubt.
He scratched his forehead and pulled me into his lap. “Sunflower, actually it was all a lie!” He said.
His words left me dumbstrucked. What was he saying? I inhaled deeply and was about to say when he spoke, “Let me explain! That day in the hospital, the doctor scanned my bones and he was surprised to see that my knee joints were relocating. I was utterly happy but at the same time I didn't want to tell you in a normal way.”
Confusion was clearly visible on my face as I listened to him carefully.
He continued, "I wanted to do something special for you. Your timely assistance made everything possible, and I truly appreciate all you've done for me. Therefore I asked the doctor to say all the things that way. I was itching to spill the beans, your worry was just too entertaining for me!”
My eyes widened and I raised my hand to slap him. He squeezed his eyes suddenly making me stop. I smiled back at him and leaned forward to kiss his cheeks instead.
“Kamina! You literally scared the shit out of me!” I chuckled while caressing his cheeks.
“But what about grooming yourself and me suddenly?” I asked, ruffling my hand into his hair.
“Let's discuss this further in the morning, alright? He said, dipping his face into the crook of my neck.
