Singly Married ~ Ashu had proposed Mihika for marriage, she neither refused or accepted the proposal. But the ring.....
Mihika still have that ring with her. She wears it as pendant which is never visible. She always kept Ashu close to her heart. Even after 5 years, that love existed in her system as the blood flows through her veins.
Mihika didn't marry Ashu or anyone else. Till today she was waiting for the right moment. The moment when she would feel responsible enough to dive into that life. She was too scared to get involved into customs, social attribute and liability. She grew up strong, wise, intelligent and smart.
Ashu always complimented her existence. Her wild activities and his sober handlings of her mischief. She shouted and he calmed her with his patience. Her hatred and his love was like that sweet which would not taste better without sour. His achievements, her decisions were winning them their goals in life. She knew he would come everytime she would not even ask for, but needed him. She annoyed him to beg for death and yet he came around every time.
Ever since Ashu asked Mihika, she has been running around to places, meeting more people and trying to hide her complexities in her schedule. She needed him but was scared of commitment .
What if this doesn't work out? What if he starts hating me? What if the fights between us start growing intense to part us to different ways?
She kept grilling these thoughts in her mind.
Until one day in that village walking around the Riverside she saw someone coming towards her. The moment she saw him her phone dropped in the mud and as she bend to pick up the phone the neckpiece floating in the air showcased the ring she was hiding.
In a hustle she turned around fixed her neckline hiding the neckpiece, turned around and said, "hey Ashu! how come you are here?". Ashu looked at her for good 15minutes glancing at her. Both kept looking at each other's eyes and felt the pain and ecstacy at the same time.
Ashu held her hand started speaking, "What are you doing with your life, ever since I asked you have been running around avoiding my calls, texts or mails. If you want to refuse to my proposal, or if you don't want me around why are you wearing that ring?".
Mihika stood silent for 5minutes.
