Chapter 2 First Love Last Foe

Karan Prospective

I got out of shower and wrapped towel around me when my mother came into my room with a lot of pictures of girls. She literally wants me to get married and settled down. So whenever I come home, marriage proposals start to shower. “Karan, are you free? Take a look on these pictures. These girls are highly qualified that even can accompany you in your work or live with you. “ and with this she started show me the girls she personally liked. But I didn’t even glanced at those pictures and continue to wear my pajama and t-shirt. Its not like I don’t want to get married but my heart didn’t want any of these girls. “mum” I took pictures from her hand and put it in trash can “ I don’t want to get married now. I just want to focus on my work and that's it” with this announcement my mother looked disappointed so I wrapped my around her and hugged her slightly and she sighed. As I about to say further, dad called me “ Karan, beta, come down soon. Look! Who is here” he seemed very excited from his voice so me and maa went down. Rajesh uncle was sitting on sofa. I instantly recognized him. He often come to our house when I was a child and always bring a lot of candies for me. He always stated me as apple of his eyes. After some years, I had to leave city for further studies and have my own apartment there to live. After many years I was meeting him again. I ran towards him and hugged him tightly and he hugged me back with same enthusiasm. And we stated to catch up from where we left. Until then mum came with tea and sat beside us. After listening my lifestyle and work he said, “ so, when are you planning to get married? “ I put my hand on my forehead. Again the same question which I was avoiding but mother’s eyes shone when she heard the question as she was ready to attack me with those girls pictures again.. “I also want to know. I have showed him pictures of a lot of girls but he don’t like anyone” Hearing this my uncle thought something and took out his phone from his pocket and search for something and showed it to my mother “ sister-in-law, how is this girl? She is my niece and earning very well.” My mother took the phone start to admire the girl’s beauty and showed it to dad. He also looked impressive with her beauty. Then my mother showed me the picture. I took the phone unwillingly but when i saw the picture I was stunned. My mother started to ask question about the girl to uncle. But whatever she was asking I knew the answers. I was looking at face which not only stole my heart years ago but also broke my trust and shattered it into pieces. I was looking at the picture of my first love and last foe. Next day , I was sitting in her house waiting for her to show up. After a while she showed with tray of tea wearing white suite with colorful dupatta. A strand of her loose hair was falling on her face which escalating her beauty dangerously. Shit!!! She was looking damn beautiful. And then she looked at me .Her surprised eyes told me that what exactly she was thinking but whatever she was thinking it was starting from ‘FUCK’. How I don’t know. I was the one who taught her this. She was naïve and full of shy when I first met her. Whenever I cursed in front of her she always looked at me surprisingly and asked meaning. I always smiled on her innocence. Fuck!!! I literally wanted to kiss on her lips at times whenever she asked. finally at our special moment I told her the meaning of all cursed words and surprisingly she took it very calmly and tried to say those word as a little kid trying to speak. But now she was standing in front of me confidently burying her thunder in her mind.
