*Continuation part*

"Ragini"he called my name.i was actually lost with the past things.
My mind randomly popped up an answer for why he is here?
'May be he want to invite you for his marriage!!'my mind had a typical answer.
But there's no card or sweet or something,he didn't even got a flowers as a part of formality.but why is she expecting flowers from him?

"Ragini"he called again..
"Yeah..yeah..Sanskar?"though I was embarrassed but I pretended formal.
I lightly scratch on my forehead.
"Come..Come inside"I turned and moved.

"I hope I didn't disturb you!"I couldn't figure out if he asked me or told me.
"N..No"I replied.
"Great"

"I will get some juice?"I told him.
He nods looking around my home.
I stepped inside Kitchen and made quick milkshake.
And moved out.

He was looking at Every showpieces and things.
"Sanskar"I called him.
And he turned to me:Well...beautiful home!
Ragini:Thank you.

He sits and takes the milkshake from her.
Ragini sits opposite to him:it's long time..
Sanskar interrupts:very long time!
Ragini:umm..yeah,you here for some work?what are you doing now?
Sanskar:event management..heard about wedlock events?
Ragini:umm..yeah.great!
Sanskar:between how are you?
Ragini:am good!

Sanskar:you did not attend the wedding!
Ragini:I was busy with the work!
Sanskar:how's your job?
Ragini:it's good!
And he smiled:And still...you are single!
I tapered my eyes:excuse me!!!

Sanskar:sorry..
He laughs silently.
Ragini:what?
Sanskar:let's come straight to the point!
My heart skipped a beat like deep inside me I knew what he gonna speak
Sanskar:remember our final talk,I didn't move further on the topic.i am still there.
Ragini:Sanskar it was all clear then..
Sanskar:that's the reason I am here today and didn't even bother you all these years.

He stood and moved towards me and I was about to stand,he held my arm and stopped me:I have told you something that I will be in front you to prove you wrong!
He kneeled in front of me and held both of my hands:I am here for you not for some work.You are very precious to me whom I cannot afford to lose.i need you in my life,beside me,every minute of my life!
I was speechless:it's..it's just stupidity of yours..
And I wanted to pull my hand from him.
While he didn't let me to:May be stupidity back...and today after these years you still feel it's a stupidity?
Ragini:you are younger to me..
Sanskar:what's the huge difference?you are pretending as if we have 25-30 years gap.but when you Love is true even that difference doesn't matter,don't be so typical!
Ragini:Sanskar I am not ...interested.
He left my hand:admit it or not...in these years you were waiting for me!
He stood and moves and picks his jacket where he kept it near by and takes a small box and opens it where it had the diamond ring.

He took my hand on his and placed it.
And moves from there.without saying anything!

I looked at the ring.all his words played.
If this is the last time she is meeting him?

I immediately moved out of my apartment and saw him stepping into lift and I stood there.many things are pulling me back.
And the door lift

I stood in front of lift for some minutes.i don't have the courage to accept what I want...in fact I don't even know what I need.all these years he was always on my thoughts,and I ...I was really waiting for him!
I really didn't realise that I was crying...the last time I did cry...It was when I lost my mother.and this time,I didn't know I was crying without my knowledge.

The soft music of lift hit my ear and I saw the door slides opening and he was standing there in middle.
He smiles turning his head to other side.

Automatically the door closed and again it opened and again closed and again opened.
I quickly wiped my tears:you didn't go yet!
Sanskar:why are you standing here?don't tell me you were crying just because I left?but why will you cry when I am not in your priority list!
She moved bit until the censor is activated and the door won't close.
Sanskar:now move I have to go!
Ragini:if you press the floor still go!
He pressed the ground floor and was about to press the button of door closing and she moved and stood near the door .and the censor is activated.

Ragini:You..won't eat the fruit custard made by me?
Sanskar:either it's forever or never!
Ragini:only 2 options!
He shrugs his shoulder.
Sanskar:you decide and answer!
Ragini:no..lifeline?expert advice?
Sanskar:it's the final question so no lifeline!
Ragini nods and bends her head.

Ragini looks at him and moves in and the door gets closed and she hugs him:I choose forever!
He smiles hugging her back.

"Acceptance is the bridge,understanding is the door and Love is the key"
