《Stuck With Him》22 | twenty-two

No one tried to persuade me. The decision was mine alone. i know my parents forced me but still i was given a chance to say no but, i just felt maybe this was it. Marrying him would make my parents happy but that was not the sole reason for saying yes it was a well thought decision and I am sure I am never gonna regret it.

At the beginning I doubted it but as the days passed and I got to know more about him the more I felt secure and safe. I knew he was the prince charming I dreamt of as a toddler. Khyati and his family have been welcoming since day one, I feel so lucky calling them my family.

Khyati has become my go to person after Sara, they are literally so similar to each other yet with different personalities. They are my girls.

And yeah Sara and I have finally sorted all the mess out. I apologized to her for neglecting her and she accepted that there was a mistake from her side too. She told me that she is currently dealing with some family issues hence, she is occupied in her personal life also well, I don't exactly blame her coz I know at times her family can be very complicated.

My chain of thoughts broke when my phone beeped with few messages. It was from khyati.

She sent those photos we were seeing yesterday morning. They were Dhruv 's childhood pictures and videos. He was such a naught kid I couldn't control my laughter at those videos. This side of him was totally unknown to me.

Yesterday was so damn fun, I got to see a new side of Dhruv where he is not at all grumpy. He got pissed a little bit but it settled in no time.

My mum always said to clear all the fights before going for the day. My dad and mom too had disagreements but they always sorted it out. Either she apologized or my dad used come up with his unique techniques of winning her heart. I miss them. It's been months since i visited them. They keep calling me at least once a day or I make sure to give them a call but there's a big difference between a phone call and feeling their warmth.

Days turned into weeks and the more dhruv and I got to know about each other, with him each passing second was a bliss. I truly wish I could pause the time and get to spend a little more extra with him each day. I would literally wait for the day to come to an end so that I could meet him and talk about everything. Deep down I knew I was starting to like him but I was scared to accept those feelings because I knew there was no love in dhruv 's life. i never want to force my feelings on him and i was happy this way, talking to him about the day, about all the random things and that was enough.

"What's your favourite colour?"

We were currently playing twenty questions. I started with a simple question.

"Blue" he replied

"Mine is white"

"What is your favourite destination?" He asked

"Amsterdam" i replied

Amsterdam has always been on my bucket list since I was in sixth standard. We were given an assignment to write about the canal cities all over the world. That's when I got to know about Amsterdam. Since then I have been so fascinated about visiting it. I did visit a few cities in Europe with my family but never been to Amsterdam.

"What's yours?" I asked

"I never had one" he replied

"What? You seriously don't have a favorite destination?" i said with a frown

"I never really got time to travel somewhere, I was working all the time. I went to few places for business meeting but I never had a favorite destination" he explained

"You had such a boring life" i commented to which he just shrugged his shoulders

"Okay now my turn" i said "what is your favourite T.V show?" I asked after a few seconds, i couldn't think about any questions literally

"Wrong question" i said when u realised about the question i just asked, he chuckled

"But i will tell you mine, it's friends" i replied "I hope you at least heard about it"

"Of Course i heard about it, khyati told me once I remember" he said and i gave him a i-don't-believe-you-look

"I can prove you" he said

"how?"i asked

"I can name the characters Chandler, Rachel, Ross and- " he groaned when he couldn't remember the rest of the characters names "wait how I can forget"

"Monica, joye and Phebe. See i told you I know the characters" he said with excitement when he remembered all the names and i giggled at it

"Good job" i patted his back and smiled broadly

"Next question. What is your favourite food?" He asked

"Mine has to be palak paneer" i replied

"Aloo matar" he said

"You should someday try my mom's hand made food, she makes the best Indian food" i told and he smiled

"Now my turn"

"I am waiting outside" dhruv informed on the phone call

"Sorry, just give me two minutes. I am coming" i replied

It was the time of week when we went for a lunch date. Because of our busy schedule we couldn't go out for lunch everyday so we thought maybe once in a week would be good.

"I am sorry, last minute something came up" i Said as i sat down in the car

"No issues," he smiled. "Where are we going today?"

I told dhruv that this time I will be picking up the restaurant, yesterday night i kept looking for some good place on the internet and i finally found a cute restaurant that serves some nice Indian food

"There's this amazing place, i Heard they have some great food" i informed

---

"Yeah now take a right turn and drive straight upto 500 meters and the restaurant will be on the left side" i informed while seeing the Google maps and trust me guiding someone while they drive is most toughest job ever like if you miss one turn you are a gone case

After a few minutes of driving we finally reached the place, it looked fancy from out just like it was in the pictures. Hopefully the food tastes good too.

Dhruv handed the car keys in the valet parking and we walked into the restaurant. I already made an reservation. The manager guided us to the table, just as we sat down and settled ourselves, I spotted two familiar people just right opposite to us.
