We sat on the bed and she was busy making the list of items for shopping. Around 2:00 pm we went to market and spend the entire day shopping for the household items. Within a week my house was filled with all those necessary things. I now had a TV in my bedroom and pink color refrigerator in the kitchen and beautifully colored curtains covering the windows. The house now looked different in just one week. All the credit goes to Sakshi she decided what to buy and how to arrange everything. All the things in my house were of her choice right from bed room to kitchen. The house was complete and now had become home.
Now it was her routine to visit my place every Sunday and we used to spend our entire day together. She used to cook lunch for us and then we used to spend the afternoon holding each other in our arms and talking all sorts of things right from marriage to family planning to career etc. I felt very complete from inside with her and wanted to spend every single moment of life with her in the same manner. There was so much love so much solace. The days kept on passing and our bonding also became stronger with each passing day.
6. 6th January 2008: Second Love Anniversary
6th January 2008: Second Love Anniversary
Time passed so quickly it was hard to believe and today we are celebrating our second anniversary, as rituals we went to Dakhineswar temple in the morning to get the blessing of Lord Kali. We had organized a small party in my flat in the evening. I had invited some of my friends and this included Sanjeev too. Till now he was not aware of my relationship with Sakshi. So anyhow someday I had to profess my love to everyone and I thought this was best time to start with him. The party was schedule for 6:00 pm in the evening; I and Sakshi were busy preparing the dishes for the evening. I had order favorite Black forest chocolate cake for our anniversary where in the top it was written “For my love Sakshi”. I called Sanjeev around 4:00 pm to collect the cake from the bakery shop and reach our place in half an hour. He was confused what was the cake for? He knew it was not my birthday. I told him to hang on and just wait you will come to know everything by this evening.
Around 4: 30 pm the doorbell rang and I could see Sakshi’s face was red in nervousness. I had to calm her down.
“Why you had to do this now? I mean we could have disclosed later on may be after few years. What if Sanjeev Da disapproves our relationship? And tells everything to Kaushik Da. Can you imagine what the consequences will be” She said in a diffident tone, I could see a mixed expression of anxiety and panic in Sakshi’s face.
“Hold on Sakshi!!!! There is nothing to panic, someday we have to disclose this to him to Kaushik and to everyone…..you know what I mean to everyone including your family and mine as well. So I am beginning this with Sanjeev… everything will be fine.” I said taking her in my arms to calm her down. I could feel her heartbeat that was running like a bullet train.
I went to open the door…. Sanjeev came in holding the packet with a smile in his face. “Comon Yaar now tell me. What is the occasion???”
I kept the packet in the kitchen and took him inside the room…Sakshi was so nervous that she went and hided herself in the bathroom.
“Sit down… do you want something to drink?” I said
“Later on….firstly open up with this surprise and tell me what’s going on? What’s this party all about? And where are other people?” He fired looking with a perplexed face.
“Okay okay…now hold on your breath because I am going to tell you something that might spin your head buddy.” I said raising my hands.
“So did you get promoted again?”
“No buddy…it’s something greater than that.” I replied with smile.
“Then what??” He said anxiously
“It’s my second love anniversary?” I replied in haste drifting my eyes away from him.
“Whhhhaaaatttt?? Second Anniversary!!!!!!” His face was like he had just landed to an alien place.
“Yes bro, this is my second anniversary, you heard me right?”
“You are in a relationship and this is your second anniversary. Are you serious? And for so many years you have been hiding this from us. Amazing man…you are smarter than what I thought about you.” He replied back still finding hard to believe what he just heard from me.
“Yes we have been in relationship for two years now and that’s the occasion. Now you will be more shocked if I name the girl because you know her.” This time I said looking straight in his face.
“ I can’t take this anymore…now tell me who the lucky girl is?”
“This is real suspense Man…. You are in love for two years and now you say that I know the girl and still I don’t know anything. Either I am very dumb or else you are super smart. Comon shoot your questions.”
“Yes I am in love and I had a genuine reason to hide this from everyone including you. So before telling you her name or rather before calling her in front of you. I have a questions that I want you to answer me honestly. We have been friends for years now…so what you think about me?” I started opening up slowly.
“You are nice and straight forward guy, though sometimes I dislike your this frankness. But overall I admire you for what you are.” He replied with promptness.
“Thanks buddy…now to tell you about our relationship. We met few years back and I believe it was destine to happen this way. I really love her and it just happened though I tried hard to refrain myself from this feelings but eventually I failed. I am very serious about her and we are planning to get married few years down the line. So tell me have i done anything wrong?”
“No if you are committed about her then there is nothing wrong. I have known you for so many years and I am sure you can’t do anything that will ruin someone’s life. Now break this suspense and tell me who the girl is? Is she here?” He said getting impatient.
“Yes...she is and within few seconds Sakshi entered the room… with her eyes down. Sanjeev was shocked to see Sakshi in my flat.
“Sakshiaaaa …you??? So you are the girl in his life. I can’t believe this.”
“Yes Sakshi is the girl in my life”. I added
“What the hell is happening here… are you both crazy? Does Kaushik have any clue about you guys? He would be very upset if he comes to know.” He said while coming near to Sakshi.
With this Sakshi started crying profusely and I had to calm her somehow and asked Sanjeev to calm down too. We three remained silent for few minutes looking at each other face. Sanjeev stared at me in such manner as If, I was a rapist. Before he could speak any further, I asked Sakshi to get in the kitchen and prepare some tea for both of us, so she quietly moved to kitchen.
“Look Sanjeev…..there is nothing wrong we both love each other madly and are very committed to take our relationship to next level. We are planning to get married 2 years down the line. Sanjeev I know it won’t be easy to convince about our relationship to Kaushik and other family members but I am confident I will manage to do so may be it might take some time. But before that I want myself to be prepared both mentally and financially so that I can take this proposal to her family.”
“I can understand Rohit and may be Kaushik too but do you think Sakshi’s family will approve your relation. You belong to different caste and you know very well about Uncle’s nature…. I am really getting scared thinking about the consequence.” He said in frustrated tone.
“That’s a farfetched story as of now. I know if my love is true then God will help us to overcome any hurdle. I am very serious about her and I can’t imagine living even a single day without Sakshi. You are my friend and I hope you understand my feelings. When the right time will come I will bring our relationship in front of her family members but please do not disclose this to anyone as of now. I shared this with you because somewhere I had to break the ice anyhow, and few months later I will share this with Kaushik too.”
“I like your confidence …. I just hope and pray everything goes fine.” He said and hugged me.
The very moment Sakshi entered the room with tray carrying tea and snacks. She too felt relieved seeing Sanjeev’s smiling face.
“I must say you two look good together as couple…. Sakshi you are very lucky to have Rohit in your life. I am sure he will always keep you happy. My best wishes on your second anniversary and would like to see you guys getting married soon.” He said and we all laughed loud.
The bell door ranged again and I went to open the door, it was Nikhil and Ujjwal, I introduce them to both Sakshi and Sanjeev, and soon it was time for arriving some other friends from my Office. I introduce everyone to Sakshi we together had the cake cutting ceremony holding each other’s hand. Light music was playing in the background. Everything around us looked so wonderful. I and Sanjeev helped Sakshi in serving dinner to every guest. Around 9:00 pm all the guests left and I went to drop Sakshi to her house. The party went perfect as planned.
The days kept on passing in similar manner I was busy with my office life and Sakshi with her College. We used to meet every Sunday as usual. Everything around us was so beautiful.
Our first Diwali together in my flat:
10:00 am my cellphone rang with the screen flashing her name.
“Hello…Jaan good morning.” I said in half asleep tone.
“Oh my God ….you are just impossible…today is Diwali and you are still sleeping There’s so much of work pending. Get up quickly I will reach there in next 20 minutes.” She said.
“Okay Honey…. U come the door is open.”
“Don’t you understand what I said just now??…now means now get up from the bed you lazy lad. Have you brought all the items that I had listed you for today’s Puja.” She shouted over the phone.
“Yes Honey…everything is done.”
“Great!!! Now get up from the bed quickly, I will reach there soon.” She said and disconnected the call.
I didn’t want to upset her so I got up from the bed immediately… these few years of our courtship have made me well aware of her attitudes, she can be really ruthless if I overlook her words. Within few minutes she was there in my flat. I was in the kitchen preparing tea she pushed me aside and started doing that herself and asked
