Our journey from engagement to marriage by Shipra Saini (surface ebook reader TXT) 📕

"Can I ask you something? " I asked him while fledging with my Garland.

We both our talking in a very low voice that it just came out in a whisper. Only we could hear our conversation.

"You can ask me anything. You don't need my permission. You are my life partner Preeti and you have every right to ask me anything. " He said.

I look at him and he is also looking at me. He respects me. He respects everything between us and a girl wants a respect from her husband which Siddharth is giving me. He make happy without realizing.

I turn my attention again to the Garlands.

I don't know how to ask him. I feel very nervous., but these questions are eating my head.

"Why had you say yes to me for marriage. I mean you live in New York. You studied in the top most business school, and you have a good looks that any girl would ready to marry you then why me? Why do you want to marry me, a simple ordinary Indian girl." I whisper while lowering my head.

I regret asking him. I should not ask him this. But it's too late to take my words back.

"Maybe you are a simple ordinary girl but you are the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. I said 'yes' to you because you are the first girl who understand me in a very first meeting. May be those girls are beautiful but they are not you." Siddharth said in a very low voice.

I looked at him with a jerk and he looked at me. Our gazed locked to each other. His eyes are looking deep pike a ocean and I want to drawn myself in them.

"Thankyou.." I whispered while looking down at the garlands.

"for what.."He asked me while looking at me.

"For giving me such respect." I said and turned my head to look at him.

"I said the truth Preeti Which I feel from my heart." He whispered looking deep in my eyes.

My cheeks turned into red shade and I smiled looking at him.

"Can I ask you something Preeti?" He asked me.

I nodded my head as yes.

"Don't you have any boyfriend in past." He asked me.

I didn't say anything just keep looking at the garlands and fledging with them. I wanted to tell him that he is first person I have very strong feelings.

"You are beautiful and it's hard to believe that you were not in a relationship in past. Boys must be head over heels for you." He asked me mischievously.

I shaked my head as 'no'. I think I should tell him about my crush in school. He told me everything about him and it's my time to tell him.

"I had not have any boyfriend in past but I had a crush on a boy. He was in my school." I said and took a deep breath for calming my heart beat when I remember that incident.

"You had not ask him to go out or to be your boyfriend." He asked me mischievously.

I can see his smile at the corner of my eyes.

"I was very shy to ask him but he found out."I said him with a serious face.

That was one of horrible day of my life.

"Then what he did?" Siddharth asked me seriously when he looked at my serious face.

The mischievousness in his eyes gone and he looked at me to say further.

"My cousin is in same grade of mine and she was his girlfriend. She found out my crush for him and told him everything. He made fun of me in front of whole class and said that I'm not beautiful enough for him." I controlled my tears.

He fisted his hand but didn't said anything listening me carefully waiting for me to continue. I keep looking down on the garlands.

"Later my cousin told everything to my parents with few fake stories. No one believed me. That day I got a slap from my mother." I said while fisting a flower garland in my hand tightly, try to control my tears.

It's really don't matter me now but I always got bullied for that and I am used to hear that I'm not beautiful.

I turned my head to look at Siddharth. His jaw is clenched and his hands are balled in a tight fist. When he noticed I am looking at him. His eyes soften and he looked at me with sadness in his eyes.

"Did anyone found out the truth?" He asked me still looking furious.

"No one talked about it after that day and I also didn't want to discuss it with anyone." I said while shaking my head as 'no'.

"But I'm happy he rejected me otherwise I could not get a handsome husband." I said try to change the topic.

"Trust me..He was really a bad choice. Later I found out he didn't even shower for days." I said and chuckled softly.

Siddharth also chuckled but I can see he is hiding his anger behind his smile.

"So you find me Handsome..huh.." He asked me mischievously.

I looked at him with wide eyes. blushed and turn my head to the other side to hide my blush. I took my lower lip between my teeth to hide my blushing smile.

It's true he is most handsome man I had ever seen and I am happy he has a kind heart too. I clutch the flower garland to control my blush.

"Aaahhh..." I winced in pain when a needle pierced in my fore finger.

A drop of blood came out from my finger.

"What happened..?" Siddharth asked me while coming closer to me.

He is looking at me with concern.

"Nothing..needle pierced in my forefinger." I said while pressuring the skin on tip of my forefinger and more blood came out from it.

He took my hand and looked at my finger. I gasped when he put my finger in his mouth and sucked it while looking directly into my eyes. His tongue is feeling hot and wet on my finger.

My heart is beating fast and blood rushed to my face. He keep looking at me and didn't even blink while sucking the tip of my finger.

After a while he let go of my finger and looked at me intensively. My lips parted a little and his eyes fell on my lips. He looked at my lips and then my eyes.

I turn to the other side when didn't took his intense gaze more. My heart is beating with its maximum pace and it's feel like my heart is going to explode in any moment.
