MY FUTURE IS ONLY WITH YOU

Do You TRUST ME?

Yet.. Why.. Something inside him is breaking so hard that.. His tears fall out of his eyes.. He stopped for one last time before leaving..

Her eyes were red, "Stop crying.. Tell me should I marry her when the one I love is the one before me..?" He asked with difficulty.

Saira gritted her teeth in anger, at thought of her man becoming someone else's.. Yet..

"Khushimaa have decided, we should follow her.." She said with teary eyes.

He smiled weakly at her, "I don't understand you both.. Not at all..." He left saying so...

She slumped down crying, blaming her bad omen, from childhood nothing ever been hers.. Her mother died because of her. Her father left in misery not wanting to be with her.. She lived with her Khushimaa and Varsha's Papa..

She can't go against their wish, whatmore when Raghu was responsible of Shakshi..

He was right, loving him isn't that easy...

________________

Days passed..

Arnav was busy handling all the preparations for marriage, simple arrangement by Khushi's instructions.

He knew that it not because Khushi didn't believe Raghu and but... She doesn't want him to become Arnav's past self.

A man who is irresponsible, a coward..

He saw Shakshi who is already in turmoil, so is Raghu who is locked himself in his room.. Saira on the other hand helping around with decorations. Marriage is tomorrow after all..

She been running around as if she will break down if she stops.

He called Saira to talk with him, she entered in his study with hesitation written over her face, "Uncle?" She spoke up.

"Are you happy beta? Your crush is getting married after all?" He asked, looking at her face which had been slightly pale, became even paler in an instant.

Her eyes which were fixed on floor pooled with tears, "Shakshi is Khushimaa's ideal bahu.."

Arnav felt bad for this poor girl of his, he stroke her hair, "You was her first choice for Raghu."

Saira looked up in surprise, "?" She stood stiff in her place as she heard him say, "She liked you for Raghu, you was her favourite after all. It was all Raghu who messed it up. He is my son after all.. Still I think there's something he is hiding inside himself. He isn't a guy to do such a stuff.. You also know him. You should talk to him about this calmly beta. I think he will open up to you than anyone else.." He said, he wipes her tears away.

" Uncle? Do you think that he will tell me the truth? "She asked him hopefully.

He can't help but smile at her hopeful eyes," He will. After all he takes after Khushi more than me.. Just give him give your trust and love. He will do anything for you. "

Saira nod and gave him a quick hug and ran away.

He stood looking at Saira and thought of his past with his own wife, they suffered and learned back from their mistakes.. He hope that their children should never go through the same.

Khushi will also melt down once Raghu makes up his own mind to tell the truth or not.

Raghu heard a tapping sound from his window, he opened it saw her there holding on to paip, probably climbing it..

He pulled her up inside, holding her hand tight. She put down rope in her arm, "Let's go!" She suggested.

He raised his eyebrow at her, "Where?"

Saira pat her chest proudly, "I'm saving you from the marriage you don't like." She made her home in his room sat down on his bed with ease.

He rolled his eyes at her, "Get out."

Saira shook her head, "Not going without you, tomorrow is the day of your marriage.. But the bride will be me.. We are eloping."

"What the..." He blurted out in shock, eloping?

"Like father like son.." She muttered loudly for him to hear. She patted his bed, "Come sit.. Let's talk." She invited him.

He gulped at the sight of her on his bed, locked room.. Night time... So.. Wrong..

He sat still keeping some distance between them, "What is it you want to talk about?"

Saira looked at him suspiciously, she leaned in and whisper into his ear which is slightly red, "Are you perhaps feeling shy?"

He is getting goosebumps, "Shut up." He looked away.

She smirked, "Hm.. So you don't love her right or you never loved her?" She asked him.

"Are you doubting me?" He asked  immediately.

"NO! I TRUST YOU." She told him firmly holding his hand, "Still I wonder how the person who keep his appropriate distance with me, able to cross the road and made a girl pregnant?"

Raghu's movements froze, "I.."

She gripped on his hand tighten, she spoke softly, "Tell me the truth, I will trust you no matter what you say. I BELIEVE YOU." She assured him.

He closed his eyes in defeat and sighed, "I became helpless when it's come to you.." Her heart fluttered hearing him say that. "I lived twice but you're the only person I came to love, my first kiss is you.. So is my second." He said cupping her lovely face.

She listened and wondered loudly, "Second kiss? When did that happened?"

"Now.." He leaned in captured her lips with his, making the butterflies in her stomach flutter inside her crazily. His eyes were closed as she observed his face as he is kissing her...

Her fingers ran through his soft hair, he deepen their kiss, she cry out softly as he bit her softly before leaving her poor lips alone, still gave her a soft peck on her cheek.

"Raghu.. Don't stop.." She demanded making him feel bad for being too gentle with her.. He restrain himself and said, "Shut up. Go back to your room.." He said still breathing hard.

She smiled, "We're not eloping then?" She asked him curiously.

He hold back his laughter, "We're not!"

"Why not?" She retorted fiercely, "Khushimaa will get you married to Shakshi, I.. I can never stop her.." Saira said, begging him.

He sighed heavily, took hold of her soft hand. "Sai, no one can force me to marry. Not you, not dad nor mom.. I will marry when I want, to the girl I love.. Holding her like this, I will bring her into this house as this family's bahu with all the respects she deserves. As my wife she is the Queen of my heart, body and soul... Only she can touch me, I won't allow any other woman take her place, ever! "

Saira looked at him in awe, he is basically saying... He is not father of that child and he only belongs to her...

He glanced at her lips and looked away from her," Please leave, it is not good for us to be alone together.. "

" Raghu? Say what.. "

" Hm?"

"That's mean, your every kiss will be mine only?" She asked him, he looked at her and nodded helplessly, "Will you please go back?" He asked, almost holding himself back.

She smiled with glee, "Are you sure you don't need my help to stop the marriage?"

Raghu chuckle and nod no, "I'll manage."

She shrugged, "Ok fine." She walked towards the window, he stopped her.. He opened his room door and show her the way out. "I don't want you to take risk by climbing pipes anymore." He warned, she nods sheepishly.

She was about to leave, she heard him say, "Next time don't come here in middle of the night.. Next time I won't let you leave." He closed his door.

She blushed and ran back to her room.
