It's been a week to Sangeet and the excitement level keep on increasing as the marriage day is coming closer😄.

Abhimanyu was lost the whole week still trying to analyse his feelings.....😶

But gradually as he spent more time with Shivani, be it due to the arrangements but his heart was never that peaceful before as it was now.

He even noticed her smallest reaction.....

How she made a pout when the flowers got entangled!!

How her nose turns pinkish when she is angry!!!

How much excited she gets when everything is done perfectly🥰!!!

Nothing fake..... All pure emotions coming from the bottom of her heart❤️!!!

His nights were sleepless when he just stare her while she is sleeping like a baby....🤭

He would think about when she is away.....

Soon Abhi realised that these are some serious symptoms of 'LOVE'...💖

He didn't want to delay to tell her about his feelings although he was scared about her reaction.

Tring-tring📳

His phone buzzed breaking his chain of thoughts.

He smiled looking at the caller ID and picked up the call.

"Main tumhe hi call karne wala tha...😃", Abhimanyu said as soon as he picked the call.

"Ohhhoo!! Aa gayi Mr. Lovesick Malhotra ko dost ki yaad.... Aur koi Hi...Hello nahi😝", Jai laughed at the other end.

"Ohh shutup Jai!! I am serious bro...😑", Abhi spoke in a strict tone.

"Bol bol.... Kya hua ab😊", Jai smiled.

"Ummm.... I .....Shivani.....wo.....kab..... I", he fumbled.

"Bhai aaj aaj mai bol lega mujhe aur bhi kaam hai...🤭", Jai chuckled.

"Ruk yaar I am trying!!!", he spoke.

"Haan haan ruka hua hun par thoda jaldi...."

"I....think I ....l.....love Shivani..", he finally uttered.

There was a complete silence just Abhimanyu heard a thud at the other side.

"Jai.... Are you okay😶?"

"Yeah yeah I am fine..... But ye--" , Jai asked unbelievably.

"Yeah yeah I know!! I also can't beleive I am saying this but--", Abhimanyu sighed.

"Ohhh hoo hooo wait a minute!!! Like now too you 'Think'.... Come on man!!!! Akal kaha hai Abhi teri🙄?", Jai rolled his eyes.

"Matlab!?"

"Matlab ye ki tu abhi bhi unsure hai😒?", Jai asked.

"Nahi nahi pagal hai kya!!! I am sure that I love her...", Abhimanyu answered quickly.

"Haan toh saale jaake bata na usse.... Kiska wait kar raha hai🤦🏻?"

"Bata toh dun but....."

"Darr lag raha hai wo kaise react karegi?", Jai asked softly.

"Hmmm", Abhimanyu sighed.

"Dekh Abhi!!! Uske mann mai kya chal raha hai ya kya reaction hoga wo na mujhe pata na tujhe haan bolke dilasa dena chaahta....

Par ye jarur bolunga ki dil ki baat zyada der tak dil mai nahi rehti...☺️

Main kya koi bhi bata dega ki you love her!!! Ye baat usse apne aap batayega toh acha rahega aur jald se jald batayega toh tere dil ko bhi tasalli rahegi.....🥰", Jai made him understand.

"Thank you Bro!!! I am gonna confess my feelings soon...😊", Abhimanyu smiled.

"Aa ki Malhotra Sahab!! Iss tarah praya karoge, thank you bologe🥲", Jai pretended.

Abhimanyu laughed at his dramatic act and hung up the call.

"I love you Shivi. I will tell you this soon baby💕", Abhimanyu smiled to himself ruffling his hair.

"Shivani", Abhimanyu called her.

"Not now Abhi!! I am busy.....", Shivani said while making the list.

"Ohh--!! Ummm kitna time lagega tumhe?", he asked.

"Kuch important hai?"

"Hai toh sahi!!!"

"Haan toh phir tum bolo pehle....", Shivani looked at him.

"Nahiii aise nahi....", Abhimanyu screamed.

"Arre chilla kyun rahe ho!! Aur aise nahi ka kya matlab🤨?", Shivani wiggled her eyebrows.

"N...I mean ki free hokar aaram se baat karte hum tum kaam karlo abhi😅", he gave her a nervous smile.

Shivani looked at him strangely and shrugged her shoulders.

Abhimanyu pouted and left from there.

*

Around 8 pm,

"Haan ab bolo kya baat hai😄?", Shivani smiled at him.

"Jaldi se ready ho jao!!", Abhimanyu said.

"Huh🧐!?"

"We are going out for dinner!!"

"Par mumma ya bhabhi ne kuch nahi bola aisa-"

"Arre baba sirf hum dono jaa rahe hai!! Just two of us...."

Shivani's eyes widened a bit and she left a chuckle.

"Kya main jaan sakti hun ye sab achanak kaise? I mean dinner and all...🤭?"

"Um... Wo it's been a long we spent time with each other and shaadi ke preperation mai tum bhi busy rehti ho aur main bhi so kind of small break to ourselves😁!!", Abhimanyu grinned.

Shivani pressed her lips to stop her smile and hugged Abhimanyu.

"Thank you for this Abhi☺️!!!"

"Oye Thank you kabse bolne lagi tum mujhe.... Praya kar diya na😔!!!"

Shivani giggled still hugging him.

"Now go and get ready warna mujhe pata hai tum ro dogi...", Abhimanyu chuckled.

Shivani broke the hug and hit his arm smiling.

"And yeah take this!!", Abhimanyu handed her a gift box.

"What's this?", Shivani asked.

"Khud hi dekh lena... Ab jao jaldi we are getting late", he said pushing her inside the washroom.

Soon Abhimanyu got ready and was desparately waiting for Shivani.

"Shivii how much time?"

"Just 5 minutes!!"

Abhimanyu rolled his eyes while rubbing his hands🙄.

"Fastttt!!!"

"Aree bola na 5 minutes..... Jyada bole toh aaungi bhi nahi🌚", Shivani answered shutting his mouth.

The door knob clicked open and Abhimanyu turned his face towards it....

The view in front of him was enough for his heart to launch out of his chest💖.

"Abhi ye....", Shivani said while adjusting her flares.

"Beautiful breathtakingly beautiful.....🥰", Abhimanyu took a deep breath.

Shivani looked at him only to find him staring at her....

She bent her eyes and the blood rushed to her cheeks.

"Chale!?", Abhi asked coming out of his lala land.

She nodded, Abhimanyu held her hand and took her to the car.

*

They reached their destination.

Shivani was spell bound watching the decorations....

Simple subtle yet beautiful♥️!!

Abhimanyu had a smiled on his face when he saw Shivani's eyes shine in admiration.

"It's so serene..... Wow💗!!!!", Shivani grinned.

Abhimanyu gestured her proceed and she like an excited kid nodded her head.

They had a peaceful dinner with a little chit-chat.

After that Shivani was still admiring the view.

"Abhi it's so beautiful😍!!!", She turned to him only to see him sitting on his knees with a ring.

He took a deep breath and started,

"13 years ago I met girl and I am grateful to God for that...

Uss time Abhimanyu Malhotra ki dil ki ghanti first time baji🤭!!

Aur uss ladki ki harkatein dekh kar meri band baji.....😅

Jaha sab mujhse dosti karna chaahte the wahi main uss ladki se......

Aur bhagwaan ne meri sun bhi li aur zindagi mai pehli baar koi ladki meri best friend bani!!!

Uske saath baatein karna, uski baatein sunna....

Uske saath paglo wali harkatein karna jinhe karke dil ko sukoon milta tha...!

Jis ladki ne mujhe actually life ko enjoy karna sikhaya....

Choti choti cheezon mai khushi dhundhna sikhaya☺️!!!

And then pehli baar kuch ajeeb sa ahsaas hua.....

Maybe crush or more than that...!!

Apni feelings ko control karne ke bawazood apne dil ko nahi control kar paaya aur uss ladki ko dil ki baat bata di.....

Sab theek tha galti waha hui jaha expect kiya ki wo bhi meri feelings ko postively respond kare....!

Uss din na maine sirf apni dost ko khoya balki apne aap ko bhi kho diya.....!

Par kehte hai jab bhagwaan chaahte hai toh kismat dusra mauka deti hai....!

10 saal baad jaake apni galti sudharne ka mauka mila par shayad tab bhi akal nahi aayi mujhe......🙃

Usse itna hurt kara..

Usse pata nahi kya kya bola....

Kosta raha uss galti ke liye jo usne kabhi ki hi nahi.....

Par usne kuch nahi kaha, meri bewakoofi mera gussa chup chap saha!!!

Thappad pada tab jaake akal aayi aur dosti ki nayi shuruwaat kari!!!

Aur iss baar bhi ghanti baji....

Pehle wali se bhi jyada😅", Abhimanyu chuckled looking at her while Shivani stood there dumbfounded.

"Aur iss baar wo ahsaas kuch jyada hi hai......

Aaj uss ladki ko batana chaahta hun ki main uske liye kya feel karta hun!!", Abhimanyu exhaled closing his eyes.

"I love you Shivani❤️", came out of his mouth and a tear dropped off Shivani's eyes.

"Pata nahi kab kaise kyu.... Par pyaar ho gya hai tumse Mrs. Shivani Abhimanyu Malhotra...

Pagal ho gaya hun tumhare liye.....", he smiled at her.

"I promise to take care of you....

I promise to protect from the world.....

I promise to take out for long drives at night....

I promise to have ice-cream dates with you.....

I promise to watch Doraemon with you without any fight....

I promise to listen your scoldings happily.....

I promise to share my chocolates with you.....

I promise to hug out all your worries......

I promise to make you smile every day....

I promise to love you forever....

I am madly deeply in love with you Shivi...

You are the queen of my heart baby....💖", Abhimanyu grinned slipping the ring in her finger gently.

Shivani stood there speechless while multiple drops drop off her eyes. She was not able to form words nor her mouth was able to speak up.

He kissed her knuckles softly and stood up.

"I know Shivi it's all sudden for you but take your time.... Pehle wali bewakoofi dobara nahi karunga. No hurry baby but be sure about feelings....😊!" Abhimanyu caressed her hair.

She looked at him with tearful eyes and he shook his head wiping off her tears.

He kissed her forehead and gave a sweet smile to which she smiled a little.

"Okay now?", he asked holding her by her shoulders.

Shivani nodded and sniffled looking down.

Abhimanyu held her hand...

"Ice cream..?"

Shivani pressed her lips to control her smile.

"Haaye🥰!!!", Abhi tilted his head looking at her.

They had ice-cream happily and left to home.
