"You both must be tired, naina take dhruv to your room" Naina's mom insisted

"You're gonna sleep on the couch remember" naina whispered to me while narrowing her eyes

"Sure mom, dhruv follow me" she said aloud

"I know your room naina" i taunted while she gave a deathly glare

"Here take the pillow and the blanket" he handed when I stepped inside the room

"Naina don't you think the couch is too small for me" i said

"I don't think so" she stated "and I guess you forgot, I used to sleep on the couch back at your home so you get same treatment" she added

"You are so cruel, Naina" i mumbled under my breath

"What did you say?" She asked

"Nothing" i replied

"Now go to sleep and let me get some rest too" she said

"Good night" i said and she nodded

---

"Wake up dhruv" naina said as she tapped my shoulder

"What happened?" I asked

It was about one thirty in the night and she woke me up suddenly. God knows what's the problem now.

"Just get up" she ordered "You know what you take the bed" she added with a frown

"But you asked me to sleep on the couch" i reminded

"Yeah I did but you're struggling to fit on the couch" she said "You're turning and twisting. it's disturbing me so it would be better if you sleep on the bed"

"I am sorry, i didn't knew i was distributing you" i apologised

"Not a problem. You sleep on the bed" she said with a tight lipped smile

"Naina, i think even if you won't be comfortable on the couch why don't we share the bed just like we used to back at our home" i insisted "Come on naina please."

"Fine whatever, i so damn sleepy" she said getting annoyed

---

"Good morning" she said while pulling the drapes and letting the sunlight in "fresh up and come down the breakfast is ready"

"Morning naina" i greeted

After getting fresh. I went downstairs and Naina and her parents were already at the dining table chatting and laughing. Naina looked so happy, she was laughing wholeheartedly. She deserves all the happiness of this world.

"Good morning dhruv" naina's dad wished with a broad smile

"Morning papa" i wished him back

"good morning maa" i greeted her and she replied with a sweet smile

All of us ate our breakfast while having a fun chat on all the random topics. Naina's parents are the most amazing people with them. There's no place for boredom.

"Naina it's time we should leave" i reminded

"Dhruv.... There's something i wanted to tell you" i said with a hesitation

"What is it?" I asked with a frown

"I wish to stay here for some days" she answered

"What?" I asked in disbelief

"It's been so many days, i spent some time with my parents and i need some time dhruv" she said with a cute pout

"What time naina?" I asked with a deep frown

"Dhruv please try to understand" she said

"Naina i understand you but please forgive me. I will never yell at you, I promise." I stated in a promising tone

"I know dhruv but i just need to clear my head please" she requested "Please. I will come back in few days"

"How are you gonna stay here? I mean all your clothes are at our place and what about khyati she will miss you" i said

"I have enough pairs of clothes here, my parents kept all my things just as they were before marriage and about khyati don't worry I will speak to her. I am sure she will understand me" she reasoned

"And what about me, Naina?" I blunted

"What do you mean?" She asked

"I mean...." I stammered

"Naina yaar, i will miss you" i said

"Dhruv it's just matter of few days" she remarked

"Your wish but please come back soon" i said in a requesting tone

"I promise I will be back in no time" she stated with a smile

---

"Naina. I forgot something" i said when we i opened the car door and saw a paper bag lying on the seat

"Here" i added forwarding a paper bag

"What is it" she asked

"See for yourself" i replied

"A new mobile" she said in a surprising tone "dhruv i don't–" i cut her off "Please keep it. I bought it for you and i really sorry about that incident i shouldn't have said all that"

"Stop dwelling over past" she said with a sweet smile

"It means you forgave me" i asked

"Yeah but i have one condition" she answered "Don't repeat your mistakes"

"I won't" i promised

It's been a week and still naina hasn't come back from her parents place. She says she needs some time , though we talk everyday on the phone and sometimes even meet for lunch, I miss her terribly. Without her everything seems so dull and boring. Khyati misses her. I miss her and even The house felt so lonely without her.

Naina affected me more than she should, the thought of losing her was driving me insane, the void i feel when i am not with her, i never felt such way before. She makes me happy and she makes me a better person. I feel different around her. She gets the best version of me and just seeing her smile makes my day. Her one smile brightens my mood. Having her by my side makes me feel like I am the richest man on this earth. She brings me peace and calmness. I knew I couldn't stay without her.

I love her. I can't put my feelings into words but my heart knows how to express it to her. If i was granted a wish right now all i would pray would be getting naina back to our home. I would keep her forever with me.

I want to scream that I am in love. I am in love with the most amazing girl in the whole world. I feel so blessed having her as my wife. Just the thought that I get to wake up next to her everyday morning makes me feel so happy.

Today I am gonna express all my feelings. I am going to tell her everything about my parents, about my past and all things I kept away from her. I am gonna confess my love to her.

"Dhruv, where are you taking me all of a sudden?" She asked impatiently while sitting in the passenger seat

"A place where you are destined to be" i replied

"Stop being so poetic" she snapped

"I am not being poetic, i am just stating mere facts" i told

"Now tie this around your eyes" i said while forwarding blind fold to her

"What? But why?" She asked with a frown

"Naina you get all your answers but first do what I say" i said

"Fine" she sighed while she tied the bond fold

"Dhruv don't you get bored of this game. I mean everytime you ask me to close my eyes whenever you are taking me somewhere. Now this time, which place are you taking me? Have you been to this place before or is it your first time" she kept on talking straight for a minute without any pause

"God! how much do you talk, naina?" I spoke once she stopped talking

"Now open your eyes" i said once we reached the location

"Where have you brought me" she asked while opening the blind fold

"What is this dhruv? You seriously brought me to home" she stated with a frown

"Yeah. A place where you are destined to be. Our home. Our place" i said with a smile

"So poetic mr. Singhania. What are your plans huh?" She asked while raising her brows

"My plans will leave you speechless mrs. Singhania" i replied
