"Marry me."
Two words. Two people. Two different situations.
Ipshita Kumari, a 25 years old mechanical engineer at the MicroMakers, is faced with a different side of her lover, and a difficult decision.
Kabir Arora, a 26 years old software enginee...
Kabir looked at my parents, then at me, and then he slowly lowered his gun.
"Good choice, darling. " he turned to my parents, " I will just leave this kundli here" He placed the paper on the table, beside the tray. Then he took out his phone and gave it to me. I looked at him.
"Give me your number. I know you have changed it."
My fingers hovered over the keypad. I had half a mind to put in the wrong number, but I could not risk it. I typed in my phone number and returned the phone to him.
"Tomorrow, 10 am. I'll pick you up. Wear something pretty." he said, "Though you will look pretty in anything you wear."
With that, he left.

I drove back home.
My mind was stuck at what had happened an hour ago. I know my way was wrong, very wrong, and i might have just added another reason to her '101 reasons to hate Kabir'.
But something snapped inside me, hearing her rejection. I realised how close I was to losing her, and I couldn't let that happen.
My mind went back to the first time I proposed the idea of marriage...
"Marry me."
Ishu turned towards me, her eyes wide, her cheeks red.
"That's what your parents want too na? Didn't they tell you, "Introduce him after graduation, but don't get too close." ? So, marry me in the future, once we're both settled in our career. "
She chuckled , "Isn't it too soon to make such a decision ? You have known me for only four months."
"And my love has only increased in these four months."
Her blush darkened. She hugged me, hiding her face in my chest.
I laughed, pulling her close to me.
I smiled at the memory. That day I had decided, I would give her a grand proposal.
But looks like God had other plans. My proposal was anything but grand. I made her cry, not from happiness, but from fear and anger.
It's amazing - how there was a time I did not believe in God. And now here I am, thinking about God's plans.
Sachchi mein sudhaar rhi hai vo mujhe.
Lekin thoda bigda bhi usi ke liye hoon mai.
[She is making me better,
but she is the one for whom I became bad.]
( Author: Please forgive my bad translation for this. I could not think of anything better. )
I called Advik, "Did you catch him? "
"Her."
"What?"
"The spy is a girl, Urvashi. "
Interesting. When did that misogynist piece of shit started hiring girls?
Anyways, that doesn't concern me.
"Kuch pta laga?"
["Did you figure out anything?"]
"Naah, she is stubborn."
"Put her in the projection room."
The projection room is where we were testing various frequencies and displays for hypnosis. This technology could be useful in psycho-therapy.
And it also helps us break the spies.
Jay Pratap.
Looks like he still hasn't given up.
Last time, I was able to stop him with the help of Vipin. I was fairly new in this business battle, and quite naive.
But now I am not that naive. I have learnt my lesson.
This time he will not be facing a software engineer Kabir.
He will be facing the CEO of The Nexsite Technologies - Mr Kabir Arora.
