Song for the chapter- Jannat (ft Harshdeep Kaur)

This song is love! I'm listening to it rn

Drishti's POV:

He stood there with saying a word. His silence started haunting me as thoughts of him not loving me anymore came in a rush. I knew it wasn't true but somewhere you get those thoughts and feel helpless when it came to stopping them.

Drishti:- Rakshit?
Rakshit?

I shook him harshly and asked him to say anything. He looked into my eyes for a few seconds before pulling me closer and circling his arms around my shoulders. All of a suddess I felt some wetness on my shoulders in the form of tiny drops. He was- crying.

Drishti(worried):- Rakshit, kya hua? Agar tumhe ye acha nahi laga to tum na bol skte ho. Mein tumhe kuch nahi kahungi. Rakshit please ro mat. Please. Mein-

Rakshit(laughing):- tumhari badbad krne ki adat jaegi nahi na.

He cupped my face and laughed in tears. (Imagine the tears and his laugh all the way he says these words till it is mentioned that he stopped)

Rakshit:- kya sach?

I nodded my head in a yes and cupped his face too.

Rakshit:- dobara bolo.

His tears forced me to cry with him,l and his laughs got me laughing too.

Drishti:- I love you

Rakshit:- dobara

Drishti(laughs more):- I love you

Rakshit(hiccups and laughs):- ek bar aur.

Drishti:- I love you

He picked me up and twirled me in circles while screaming in joy. Our laughs filled the empty air while our tears represented our longevity to be in each other's arms. The thousands of smiles that should once have been on his face for the past years came on his face like compensating for all the tears he shed.

Rakshit:- I love you toooo, three, four, infinity, over the moon, to the sky and beyond, more than my life, Etc etc!

I laughed at his childish and looked at his face as he stopped twirling me and held me in the air. Slowly his arms put me down while our foreheads were connected, not wanting to break that beautiful talks of the eyes going on. I wiped his tears and told him to stop crying, he nodded his head in a bright no and told me he wouldn't.

Rakshit:- itne salo se itzar kar raha tha Drishti tumhara. Aj jab tum mere pas, aur tumne mujhe bataya ki tum bhi mujhse pyar krti ho, to ab mujhe mat roko. Aj rone do.

Drishti:- pagal

Rakshit:- tumhare lea

He laughed while squeezing me in his arms and rubbing my back as if trying to ensure I existed in his arms and make sure I wasn't leaving. His chest heaved up and down with his sobs. Every feeling that he held inside him found its way out today. The stillness of the night soon ended when the wind seemed to play the cupid but with the calmest of the sounds.

Drishti:- Rakshit, vaise to meine kabhi socha nahi tha ki tum meri zindagi mein vapis aoge. Aur agar aj aa hi gae ho to please, kabhi mujhe chodke mat jana.

Rakshit:- pagal ho gai ho kya? Mein kyu jaunga-

Drishti:- mein bol lun pehle?

Rakshit(laughs):- oh sorry

Drishti:- chahe jo jae Rakshit ab bs yahi chahti hu ki hum ek sath apni sari zindagi ek sath guzarein. Chahe jo ho jae, ab hume koi alag nahi kr skta na?

Rakshit:- ye kehne ke lea mujhe toka?

Drishti:- to apne sara bhula dia mein kya karu.

He laughed and wiped my tears along with his. Somewhere he stoll couldn't believe his fate so he fell on his knees with me still in his arms. For the next few minutes he cried in my arms telling me how much he waited for this moment.

Rakshit:- Tum ab meri Mrs. Shergill ho na?

Drishti:- hamesha

Rakshit:- tum kahi nahi jaogi na ab?

Drishti:- kabhi nahi. Tum bhejoge, tab bhi nahi.

He stopped crying and laid on the ground looking at the stars. I laid beside him and kept my hand on his. His fingers caught my hand and we looked at each other, our bodies still laying facing the sky.

Rakshit:- I love you

Drishti:- I love you more

Rakshit:- I love you most. No challenging me.

Drishti:- pagal

Rakshit:- tumhare pyar mein

We laughed as loudly as we could till our mouths felt froze. All those things I thought I would tell him stuck in my throat because the happiness was just too much for us to handle. As we held each other's hands, it was only our eyes and our hearts that talked.

Rakshit- pov-

I Still couldn't believe what I heard. The only girl I had loved in my life, the one I lost because of me, the one for whom I could have died told me she loved me too. No words seemed to agree to spoil the moment as a third wheel and words- they didn't feel like needed here anymore.

If I only had a few breaths, I would give them all on my beloved. If I had just a few heartbeats left, it would be her name that would be heard. If I had only a few hours left, I would name it all hers.

Rakshit:- ab tum meri biwi ho na?

She nodded her head brightly and sighed in a smile.

Rakshit(emtional):- meri?

Drishti(smiling):- apki

Rakshit:- meri Mrs. Shergill

Drishti(nodding in a yes):- apki Mrs. Shergill

The same lips that once named her as someone else's wife now had the privilege of calling her my wife now. She was someone else's, but today she was mine. All mine.

Rakshit:- aj nahi, kal nahi, rat ko nahi, din ko bhi nahi, jab tak mein zinda hun tab tak tumhare sath rehne ke lea taiyar hun.

Drishti:- kal ho na ho, ab ye sath aur ye pyar kabhi nahi milega. Na kabhi kam hoga.

Them:- ab ye samay ke sath sirf badega

Rakshit(looking into her eyes tightening his hold on her hand):- sirf badega

Drishti:- sirf badega

We smiled and stood up. She held my hand gently and took me towards the penthouse. On entering into the house I saw it decorated like a bride on her wedding day. She closed the door behind us and held me from the back. I placed my hands on hers and brought them closer to my lips to place a small kiss on them.

She came in front of my eyes and took my fingers in grip, walking towards a bed slowly and lovingly.

I circled my hands around her waist and admired her face.

Rakshit:- tumhe pata hai tum bht-

Drishti:- sundar lag rahi hun. Han pata hai.

Rakshit(same tone as Drishti before when Rakshit cut her):- tum hi bol lo

Drishti(laughing like Rakshit did before):- sorry

I laughed with her once again before finally letting my lips fall on hers and putting in all my love and longing in what seemed like my first kiss with her.

Rakshit:- I love you

Drishti:- I love you too

The night became one of the most beautiful nights in my life. She was all mine as I was all hers. I never let any girl touch me in these years, even if it was a good touch. My body, my heart, my soul- all belonged to her. And today she claimed them all.

The night became the evidence of the union of two souls who were meant to be forever.

And our forever had started.

My guilty and grieved heart got its queen back that ruled it to happiness after every single day that followed. She did everything for me more than I did for her. No day went when I didn't feel her love with me.

In her smile I saw my happiness
In her tears I saw my sorrow
In her smile I saw my victory
In her tears I saw my failure

My mockers mocked at me, people told me I was sick and I took that sickness as my fate, they called me crazy and I didn't care. At the end- tell me who was crazy?

She was my everything and now- I was her everything too.

Besides our kids ofcourse.

This time- it was forever

Epilogue out soon
