My IMperfect Love Life by Neha Dua (best book clubs .txt) 📖

and seductive approach towards each other. We ended up having sex again. This was the first time I had sex in last 1.5 years of my life and that too again with Steve only. I was lying on his chest and he had put his arms around my waist. We were both very close to each other. We enjoyed our moment again. We both hugged each other tightly and fell into the arms of good night sleep, being exhausted and at the same time, relaxed.

 

That was the best night ever for me in Canada. The night I always wished for and with my dream man. It felt like I was watching a movie, and it is going to have a happy ending finally.

Chapter 28

The next morning, I woke up being alone on my bed. It was 8 o’clock in the morning. I felt an emptiness in me when I didn’t find Steve anywhere near me or in my room. I quickly woke up from the bed and rushed towards the living area. Steve was still in his boxers making breakfast for us in the kitchen.

 

I ran towards him and hugged him tightly from behind. I got scared of the look I had on my face. I was having tears in my eyes. I couldn’t let him go away from me again. He asked me, “Hey Baby, What’s wrong?”. I was so upset in that one moment when I found him nowhere in my room. I was in tears and didn’t leave his side. He made me sit on the island of the kitchen and hugged me. He said “Baby, I did that mistake of leaving you stranded earlier, I am not going to leave you again ever, and that’s a promise. And, don’t you forget, I LOVE YOU, BABY!”. In my heart, I could feel the eternal happiness that was missing from my life.

 

The last evening and the last night made both of us fell for each other again, but this time, he confessed his feelings and love for me and promised to never leave me behind for anything.

 

He had made us some spaghetti and coffee as breakfast. We had our breakfast and started to get ready for the day. Steve had to leave today as his official work was over here. He promised that he will go to his motherland and will talk to his family about me. 

 

Steve had his flight scheduled at 11 PM, so we both planned to meet after office hours and spend some alone time. I completed my today’s tasks and meetings quickly waiting for the clock to strike 5 PM so I could leave the office and be with Steve. I walked towards my place as quickly as possible and changed my clothes. I went to his hotel and picked him up. We went to some isolated place, from where we could see the sky and stars. We laid down on the grass looking up at the sky and talking about our plans.

 

We were sharing our aspirations when suddenly Steve turned towards me and took out from his pocket a small blue box. I had this shocking expression on my face, that I suddenly stood up. He also stood up but kept himself down on his one knee. He opened that small square blue box in front of me. There in it was a ring, a beautiful round diamond shinning on that ring. I closed my open mouth with both my hands. I couldn’t believe my imperfect love life will have such an amazing turn.

 

He asked me while smiling “Natalie Baby, Will You Give Me The Honor To Spend The Rest Of My Life With You! Will You Be Mine Forever! Will You Marry Me!”.

 

Without wasting any time, while blushing continuously from the past ten minutes, I said “Yes Steve, I Will Marry You! I Was Waiting For This Moment To Happen, My Whole Life. Thank You For Choosing Me. I Love You More Than Anything In My Life”.  We sealed this moment with our kiss filled with love, joy, happiness, and togetherness.

Chapter 29

It was time to go to the airport to let Steve board his flight. I was sad that he had to go away from me again, but I was sure that this time it will be only for a very short time as he promised that he will convince his family for me and we take me home with him. I said goodbye to him with a heavy heart. The next day was very dull and boring, due to the absence of Steve near me. We talked on calls and emails every day although, but the feel of his aura near my side used to make my days full of energy and enthusiasm. I was missing him already in just one day. 

 

Steve’s POV

 

It’s been more than a week that I had come home from Canada, away from Natalie and I was missing her too much. I had lived my life in the last 1.5 years without her as well but when I went to Canada and met her again, I couldn’t control my genuine feelings to tell her. I know she had waited for me these all years, but I couldn’t approach her because of my responsibilities and always neglected, what I felt about her in the first place.

 

After meeting her again last week, I was able to recall the whole time we spent together and enjoyed our gossips and fun life. She makes me feel lighter from my responsibilities, that I could never share with anyone else in my life. I could never reject her but I knew she deserved a much better guy than me. She is sweet, smart, interactive, career-oriented, and most importantly my best friend, with whom whenever and whatever I could share.

 

We talk every night on call and she seems to feel alive whenever we talk or do video calling. It was getting tough for me every day to tell my parents about Natalie and how I feel about her. It wasn’t going to get easy to tell my family about her and to convince them to get us both married to each other, but still, I won’t give up on her this time, as Natalie never gave up on me. She always stood by me all by the good and bad times of me. She has always trusted me more than I ever deserved. She is such a sweetheart but very fragile with her feelings as well. She could get influenced and hurt by anyone very easily. 

 

I have started to daydream about me and Natalie sharing life together with our families. I gained courage because of her and today I will go in front of my family and will tell them everything about us. I have made my mind that no other girl could make me happier and could never support me in my career plans as Natalie has always done. I will not let this moment be destroyed again because of me. 

Chapter 30

Steve’s POV

 

Today, I am going to tell my parents about Natalie in the evening after my office. I finished my office and went back home. Everyone was getting ready for dinner to be served. I rushed into my room and took a bath to freshen up myself from the sweat and dirt. I changed into my night suit and went into the dining room for dinner. My mom was serving me and my dad's dinner. My mom and dad were sitting on the chairs at the end of the dinner table representing the heads of the family. Both my sisters were sitting on the chair opposite to me and my brother. I was sitting on the chair next to my mom with my brother on the right side of me. 

 

I was feeling nervous to break this news suddenly in front of my family about my girlfriend, Natalie. My mom noticed my nervousness and put her hand on my hand to calm me down. She was looking at my face and when I looked back into her eyes, I suddenly spilled out everything about me and Natalie. How we met and how we developed feelings for each other and what is she doing currently and where is she now. I tried to explain my feelings. I was very close to my mom since childhood and I couldn’t go against her wish by any means, even if it means sacrificing my happiness. My mom didn’t say anything as she was shocked. Everyone present at the dinner table was in surprise. My brother and sisters broke the silence after 5 minutes with their happy faces and teasing me with her, by asking her name. But my mom and dad still were not at all convinced. I tried my best to convince my mom for Natalie and how much I love her. She looked pretty satisfied with my choice after thirty minutes when I took out my phone and showed my mom Natalie’s picture. She assured me that she will talk to dad and will try to make him understand.

 

My mom was the best. She could do anything and everything, but at this time, I was a little scared of what my dad would think about this relationship. After a closed meeting of my mom and dad in their room for around one hour, they both came out. My dad has this very serious look on his face and asked me just one question without uttering any other word to me, “Do you love her this much that you wish to spend your whole life with her?”

 

I looked up at him and couldn’t judge exactly what was happening, but I had this in my mind clear and answered him confidently, “Yes, I love her very much, but I can’t go against
