Sanskaar…. said she slowly standing at the terrace gate. It was night but her face was shining in the light of moon n thousands twinkling stars. After getting no response… she called him again little loudly. But still no response. She was about to go down to see if he was still there but shivered feeling his lips touching her ear. Beautiful…… said he huskily standing behind her. She was looking divine in red saree… open hair.. no make up.. truly natural beauty.
She blushed listening him. He turned her towards him holding her shoulders. She lower her face not looking at him feeling shy. He holds her chin and make her to look into his eyes. Ragini…. I want to tell you something…. said he looking at her with so much love. I too wanted to tell you something sanskaar… said she slowly. No..I will tell first… I was waiting from long to tell you this…said he not breaking their eyelock. But…. started she but cut by him. Please…said he in little pleading tone. She nodded her head. Thank you…said he happily and hold her hand and dragged her to near the swing. Sanskaar…from where it comes.. asked she surprised looking at swing. That’s not important… You just sit…said he holding her both shoulders n making her sit. He goes at the back of her and start riding her. She closed her eyes feeling cool breeze touching her face.
After a long silence he started.. You know… when I first meet you… I was lost in ur big eyes. I don’t know what was that feeling but I wanted to stop time that moment. I just wanted to know you better… But you always seems nervous around me…said he giving a little laugh. Ragini look at him surprised not believing what was he saying. She open her mouth to say something but interrupted by him. Let me complete… said he riding her again. I kept watching you..following you.. without ur concern. But I was not able to get why.. I was doing all this. I told about this to swato… n she made me understand what my heart wants. It was the last day of college… I was fully prepared to tell you my feelings towards you.. I was searching you everywhere but couldn’t find you. Than I saw swato coming towards me…I was about to ask her about you… But she told me about laksh and ask my approval. I was so happy to know that finally that idiot proposed my swato… but to tease him I made a condition. Then I asked swato about you.. she said that she meet you sometime before.. but now she doesn’t know where are you…I kept searching you till the end of the college…but I was disappointed to not find you anywhere. I went to your hostel to meet you… But got shocked to know that you left….you just left…without telling us. I cried…for the first time I cried..only for you.. I was distorted that time. I tried ur no…. switched off…I tried continuously in a hope to listen ur voice once…but all the time same answer… switched off….I screamed…screamed ur name so loudly sitting on my knees.. that ur whole hostel came out to see..what was happening… said he taking a pause..smiling with teary eyes. Ragini’s tears were continuously flowing…cursing herself for such disastrous decision. She was not able to face him n close her eyes tightly letting her tears flow.
I locked myself in my room for a week…not wanting to show anyone my pain…mom n swato did their best to make me come out…to make me smile.. But I was shattered… That time laksh give me a hope. After so much efforts.. we get ur address from college. We reached ur house… but it was locked. We asked ur neighbors but didn’t get anything. I lost…I lost my last hope. It’s been a year.. that I smile heartily.. swalak are married.. n me…I was just nowhere. Then came ansh.. I smiled… I smiled heartedly. You remember once I told you about little ragini…swato want to do this for me…but being with ansh…I forgot my pain.. But never forget you….said he painfully n stop the swing and come in front of her. Ragini swiftly wipe her tears without his notice.
When I saw u in mall…I couldn’t believe.. that it was you…I can’t express how crazily I want enjoy the moment that I found you. But somewhere in the corner of my heart.. I was scared… scared to think that if you move on in your life. I was happy to know that you are single but when you said that you love someone…it pierced my heart.
I know ragini…. That you love someone else… but today I can’t stop myself from saying this to you…that you are my first crush n I AM MADLY IN LOVE WITH MY FIRST CRUSH RAGINI … a tear drop fell from ragini’s eyes not able to control her emotion. Yes ragini… I love you… I really do…said he holding her hand sitting in front of her…n tear drops fall on his hand. He got shocked to see her crying..n immediately cups her face. Ragini….I am sorry… I am really sorry… But I can’t be able to hide this love anymore….. said he wiping her tears. Ragini started sobbing slowly…
Please don’t cry…I know you don’t have such type of feeling for me…n I will never force you for this…just I want to tell you once.. so that I didn’t regret on this…please u r free as you were…n I never let affect our friendship because of my feelings we will be friends for life…don’t cry please… said he sitting beside her cupping her face wiping her tears. Ragini started crying loudly. He got worried. She was sobbing continuously with hiccups… He panicked to see her like this…and rushed down to get water. She gulped a glass of water in one go and wipe her tears and look at him. He smiled weakly and about to go from there but she held his hand.
Once you asked me name of the person whom I love… Don’t you want to know it now…. asked she holding his hand. He close his eyes tightly not turning towards her. Let it be…I want you to meet him…said she kneeling down in front of him shocking sanskaar. I want you to meet the person whom I love from the day when he first bumped into me…I want you to meet the person.. who confess his love to me and saying that he will be my friend for all life…. But I don’t want him just as my friend… I want him as my husband… as my soul mate… as my life. So Mr.Sanskaar Maheshwari…. Will you give me the right to be ur wife….to be called Mrs. Ragini Sanskaar Maheshwari. Will you give ur children rights to call me their mother… Will you be my life for rest of my lives. Will you marry me sanskaar….???…asked she looking straight in his eyes with immense love. He became numb for a moment… not able to believe it is really happening with him. He pinched himself tightly. Aaaahhh… screamed he. What happened… asked she worried. This is not a dream…. You are in real…You said you want to marry me…is real…said he happily shedding tears holding her shoulders. She nodded her head smiling through her tears. He instantly engulfed her in a bone crushing hug. She hugged back tightly. Tears were flowing from their eyes… But these are the tears of happiness. Eight years… They lived eight years in hell..but now they got their lives. God knows how much time they stay like this in eachother’s arm…not letting eachother go.
What will I call beautiful then…said ansh when sanskaar told him…that he can’t say his ragini his beautiful. Everyone chuckled on sanskaar jealousy. What you call him…asked ragini pointing finger towards sanskaar. Buddy or sansii…said ansh happily. No..not like that…I mean what he meant to you…asked she again. Everyone look at him curiously waiting for his answer. Ansh look towards laksh and he gave him a smile in return. PAPA….just like him…said he pointing towards laksh. Swalakrag smile listening him. Ap dp hugged ansh from both side.They came as soon as they got to know about RagSan. But tears started brimming in sanskaar’s eyes. Then you can call me Maa….said ragini taking ansh in her arms. Sanskaar rushed towards them and hugged them tightly.Ap wipe her happy tears to see his son finally happy. Dp gave her a side hug smiling. Buddy…now toh I can kiss my Maa naaa…asked ansh innocently.Ragini look at him with wide eyes but chuckled seeing sanskaar flushed face… everyone laugh and sanskaar scratches at the back of his head being embarrassed.
So you were laughing on me…asked sanskaar holding her from her waist. She giggled. Did you tell ansh not to kiss me…asked she suppressing her laugh. Haan toh…Only I have the right to kiss you.. no one else… said he bluntly. Ragini wide her eyes looking at him. Did I say something wrong..??… asked he winking looking at her reaction. I was right…shameless u r…said she trying to get out of his hold. He hold her more tightly and dragged her close..her heart started beating fast when he lean towards her. Am I shameless… asked he stopping himself an inch near to her lips. His breath touched her lips and she breath heavily. He smirk seeing his effect on her. You didn’t answer me…asked he kissing near the corner of her lips. She shivered with his touch. Tell naa….Am I…. asked he kissing her cheeks seductively . She clutched his shirt closing her eyes tightly. I love you so much ragu….said he kissing her forehead. Love you more…said she kissing his nose tip and bend her head feeling shy. He look at her surprised. Not bad ahaan…said he.. But don’t you think you choose the wrong place to kiss…asked he winking. She looked at him confused. Wait…I will show you the right place of kiss…said he n started leaning towards her lips. She blushed hard realizing what he mean…but close her eyes giving him permission. He was about to press his lips on her soft lips….stop..stop.. stop…we didn’t see anything… said swalak closing eachother’s eyes with their hands. He left her instantly n look here n there nervous. Ragini became red by now being embarrassed.
You idiot… spoiled my first kiss… said he punching laksh arm when he saw him standing alone. Swarag came there smiling with ansh. Really… I spoiled… You toh did nothing naa at my first kiss..atleast I stopped you before kissing her…but you took her in between our kiss….said he irritated. Swarag wide their eyes listening their talk. Champ you go play with dadu dadi….said swara to ansh who was looking both man with wide open eyes. He nodded and rushed from there. Champ these elders talk are not good for ur health..said ansh to himself patting his hand on his heart. Both girls headed towards their respective partner. Haan toh…I want to ask her something important naa…said he. And what was that… asked laksh making faces. Swato tell him…that I was asking about ragu..because I didn’t find her in college that day…said he too making faces. Ragini’s jaw touched to the ground listening him. You took her in between their kiss just to ask about me…asked she shocked. See…said laksh pouting. Swara was mentally slapping herself…laksh asked many times about this to her..but she never tell him. Don’t make that stupid face…I gave you full privacy at ansh’s time..said he proudly folding his hand around his chest. Swara became crimson red..n ragini was looking at him like there’s two horns came on his head. That to because..You became devdas that time because of ra…..stop he realizing what he just said. Tears brimmed in ragini’s eyes.. she run from there cursing herself for his pain. Laksh look at him apologetically. He smiled n put a hand around his shoulder. Don’t worry I will manage her..but promise me to not to disturb us again… said he winking. I can’t promise the thing that I can’t do…said he winking back. Both laughed and hugged eachother. Swara look at them smiling. Both look at her and dragged her into their hug. Sanskaar went from there to ragini. I am very happy for sansii….said swara placing her head on laksh’s shoulder. Me too…said he placing his head on her head smiling.
Ragini…. said he placing a hand on her shoulder n sit beside her. She wiped her tears n smile weakly at him. Ragu…it was destiny…don’t cry for past now…I want to give you a surprise..but if you cry like this.. I won’t disclose it.. my surprise will be waste…said he pouting. What surprise…asked she curious with still moist eyes. Not now…I’ll tell you in evening… said he softly wiping corner of her eyes n kiss her forehead.
Maaa….screeched ragini hugging her mother as soon as she found her sitting in hall taking with ap dp. When did you come… no no… how did you come here…asked she still hugging her. So like my surprise… asked sanskaar from behind. Ragini broke hug and look towards him and then her mother. Janki nodded her head smiling. She mouthed a thank you to him n he smiled.
Ragini was standing near boundary on terrace…gazing star lost somewhere. Sanskaar comes from back and hugged her placing his chin on her shoulder. She smiled and place her hands on his hands above her belly. I wish everytime but never thought.. that we will be like this together one day….said she placing her head on his chest. You are again thinking about past years… said he kissing her cheek. Becau…..shhhhhh…said he turning her and place his finger on her lips. No more talk about this..said he cupping her face. She nodded smiling. I promise you that I will give you so much memories that you will forget these years… said he assuring her. She smiled n place her head on his chest hugging him tightly. He too smile and wishpered in her ear huskily… So let’s begin from now itself. Ragini look at him confused n he wink at her. She blushed realizing his meaning. He lean towards her..she encircled her hand around his neck. He holds her waist and dragged her closer. He look into her eyes… n she closed her eyes giving him permission biting her lower lip. Without wasting single moment he pressed his lip on her soft lips… n starts kissing her. She too respond equally….her hand went through his hair. He lost into the kiss devouring his whole love…pressing her waist dragging her to stand on his feet. Both kiss eachother passionatelly. They broke the kiss…when they were out of breath. He held his forehead against her panting heavily. Both were in a pure bliss…this is what you feel WHEN YOUR CRUSH FINALLY KISSES YOU.
