Destiny or Coincidence?

Athira Patel

Never in my life, I felt this way. This feeling is so surreal and so pure that it's making my heart content with happiness. This place, in his arms, is the most safest, comfortable and happiest place for me. I can forever be like this without complaining. 

This moment, this minute, this second of my life is so precious that I will forever cherish it in my heart. This feeling of being whole is just because of me being in his arms. I feel like he completes my incompleteness by making me whole. I feel safe and sound in his arms that I forever want to stay like this. 

I never felt this way before and if this feeling is called love then i was never in love before. At Least not in this kind of love. 

I feel like I am the luckiest person in this world to be in his arms and I feel blessed to have a person like him.

I always thought about someone loving me unconditionally without expecting anything in return and used to shake my thoughts because it may never come true. But never in my wildest dreams I would have thought that I will be blessed with him and I am grateful for it. 

With him here, me being in his arms is the most favourite moment of my life and I hope that this moment could freeze here forever, so that we could stay like this forever. 

All these feelings were driving me crazy because of my blindness towards love, and now after knowing that I love him, my feelings are bottling up to flow out in front of him. I want to say so many things to him. I want to say how much I love him, I want to show how i feel about him, how much he is important to me, I want to make him feel loved which he let me feel throughout our journey from the moment I met him. I want to shower him with my love.

This feeling was so overwhelming that I started kissing him all over the face for missing him alot and for hurting him unknowingly that tears flowed from my eyes again. After a few moments of kissing him, I stopped to look at my man's face but immediately my heart started beating faster because he was already looking at me with so much love in his eyes that i thought my heart will stop beating then and there itself. 

Involuntarily my eyes roamed from his eyes till it reached his lips and there was an intense urge to kiss those tempting lips. It's like they are attracting me towards them like a magnet and calling me to taste them. 

I can see that he knows what i am looking at and he too was now watching my lips with the same intense feeling. 

Feeling brave for the first time, I took the initiative and immediately crashed my lips to his without wasting any second. The moment his lips touched mine, a moan escaped from me by making him chuckle and kissing me passionately. 

I blushed feeling embarrassed but that didn't last longer because his lips are passionately moving with mine in a dominant kiss. At first I tried to dominate him but he immediately took over the spot by making me feel heavenly. 

His kisses always felt breathtaking but this one showed his emotions, love and how much he missed me from all these years. He is my golu, my Abhi. And he is totally mine. 

He traced my bottom lip with his tongue asking for entrance which I gladly gave and he entered my making my knees weak that I clutched him so tightly in fear of falling down. I am glad that he was catching me because I don't know if I will be able to stand while he was kissing me this passionately. 

His kisses are so addicting that I always yearn for more. Only when we both got out of breath that we stopped kissing each other and he placed me down slowly by keeping me close to him without removing his hands around me and leaning on my forehead all the while. 

After sometime when I recovered from this mind blowing kiss, I slowly opened it to see my all time favourite chocolate brown eyes staring at me with adoration and love which melted me even more. 

"I am sorry Golu…. For everything ..." I whispered between pauses by looking into his eyes with so much sincerity in them. I can see the surprise in his eyes when I called his nickname which I used to call him in childhood. I gave an encouraging smile and nodded my head in approval for his unanswered question and making him smile whole heartedly. 

"I remember everything now. I remember each and every moment we spent together in that park of ours. I remember our plays, our fights, our talks, our promises and our time together. I remember Abhi. I remembered everything" I said cracking at the end of sentence because of being emotional again. 

He opened his mouth to say something but i am not completed and I want him to listen to me this time. I want him to know about my feelings towards him. So I interrupted him before he could say something. 

"No Abhi. Please let me complete. You deserve an explanation after all this time" I said by placing both of my palms on either side of his face. 

I closed my eyes for a moment preparing myself to say everything about my feelings and opened them to look directly into my favourite chocolate brown eyes which never fail to take my breath away. 

"These eyes of yours will be the death of me Abhi. They always take my breath away whenever I see them. They attract me towards them like a magnet that I always forget everything around me except for these mesmerising eyes." I said looking at him while smiling. I stood on my tiptoes and placed delicate kisses on each of the eye. 

"You know what, these eyes were the first thing I saw when I met you in the spub for the first time. From then on they are haunting me day and night in my dreams, my mind that I wasn't able to forget them. I don't know what that feeling was but whenever you come close to me, my heartbeat rises rapidly,  my breathing becomes uneven and my throat becomes dry. It's like I would suddenly become a teenager in front of you." I said searching in the depth of his eyes to make my point clear. 

"I always forget the whole world around us whenever you are beside me and I can only concentrate on you. I always want to be with you in your arms which always feel safe and sound. And that kiss of yours? God I was never able to forget it dammit." I said pouring my heart out. He was just looking into my eyes with so much love and was listening intently to each and every word of mine without missing a beat. 

"After I left you in that pub, I felt like something was missing and my heart felt heavy. I don't know what that feeling was at that time. But I didn't forget you. Each and every moment my heart and mind were occupied with our encounter and was making me yearn for your presence again. It was difficult. I thought it was just an attraction which goes away with time. But, I think fate has other plans and made us both meet again" I said smiling and pecking his lips. I can see the surprise in his eyes but he needs to get used to it now.

"I was shocked, surprised, happy, frustrated and even more. All emotions were running through my mind but one emotion was very high among them. It was attracting me towards you again." I said becoming serious again. 

"I was scared Abhi. I was scared of this unknown feeling. I was scared about my thoughts for you. I was scared that I will fall for you and I will get hurt again." I said with emotion while feeling the corner of my eyes, which were filled with tears again. 

"I was scared to get hurt again Abhi. So I behaved like that and became distant. But you made your goal to become close with me. I liked your presence, I liked talking with you, I liked spending time with you, I liked our battering and talking. Everything. But then I realised that Omisha is your girlfriend and got jealous." I said chuckling while remembering the time when I first met big brother. 

"That's when I met Advaith and realised that I started liking you. He made me realize that. I was scared to find out about these feelings but again I was even more scared to lose you. Then you said that we will take slow steps and eventually I started opening up to you and started trusting my heart with you" I expressed looking sincerely at him by holding his face in my hands. 

"When Omisha said everything, I felt guilty for hurting you that I was not able to meet your eyes. Guilt was eating me away for hurting the person who is becoming special in my life. So I left without uttering any word on return." I said averting my eyes from him and casting them downwards. 

He placed his finger under my chin and lifted my head towards him. "Never think like that. None of it was your fault. You don't even know that I was Golu and was watching over you from long ago. It was not your fault" he said explaining me and making me understand. I melted for his words again. But I need to say those words to him. 

I shook my head and took hold of his hands in mine.

"I am really sorry for hurting you unknowingly Abhi. I am sorry for making you feel like that. You are special to me in every way." I said looking into his eyes.

"You are my safe heaven, you are my saviour, you are my friend, you are my strength, you are my everything" I expressed still looking deeply into his eyes which are sucking me in. 

"I love you Abhi" I said finally still holding his eyes in captive. I can see the surprise in his eyes after realising what I have said. I can see the emotions playing on his face. Happy, relief, shock, surprise. He was stunned to react which made a smile to form on my face. 

"What…?" He uttered out finally after what felt like forever before closing and opening his mouth like a fish. 

I took a step back from him by retrieving my hands from him still looking into his eyes smiling all the way. 

"I said that I LOVE YOU" I shouted by keeping my hands around my mouth. I can see the happiness in his eyes which are shining brightly in this dark night like stars. 

"Say it once again" he whispered taking a step towards me with happy tears in his eyes. Even my position was also the same. 

"I love you Abhi" I said little loudly smiling happy tears. 

"I love you so much Golu" I said looking into his eyes now. He took a step even closer by closing that one foot of gap between us and pulling me towards him suddenly while placing his hand around my waist which took my breath away by making me gasp in surprise. 

"Say it again" he said whispering by bending near my ear which erupted goosebumps all over my body by making me shiver slightly. 

"I.. love you" I whispered looking into his eyes but the next moment he closed my mouth with his lips that I sighed with content and responded to him with equal passion.
