CHAPTER 24

CHAPTER 24.2 – NO FILTERs 2.0

ARNAV'S POV

How does she do this?

How is she able to make me feel so many arrays of emotions, all at once? And all of the ones – that are pretty high in the gravity of their Magnitude.

No wonder, I just keep falling in Love with her, harder and deeper day by day. I can't believe she, freaking saw through my uncomfortable conflicted turmoil, that I thought, I had been very successful in Masking Up. Apparently Not. Please note, that a very strong part of me, is extremely delighted with this new added Annexure of Promise No 6.0 that My Sparkle, wants to introduce into our Promissory Summons. Because, well when it comes to 'US' – I am not a Big Fan off Masquerade's and Filter's myself, because I absolutely love to share anything and everything with her, but I was just masking this Up, because a part of my mind was a little uncertain, about what her reaction on the same, could be?

But Guys, know what?

It's Time to Find Out. Because I am just going to talk to Khushi about it all – transparently. I cannot hold it in anymore, not when she brought it up in the ways she did. The vulnerability in her voice, backed by the sincerity in her eyes, and care + concern for me, dripping in her voice – kind of worked as a Freaking HatRick of Sixes to my Heart.

But, Raizada.

To get around to that much needed Heart to Heart talk with your Sparkle, you kind off need to let go of her Lips, first.

Dammit. Why? Can I not continue to kiss her madly this way, and bask in the happiness that I am experiencing at the feel of her trembling in my arms, and also have this Heart to Heart, talk with her at the same time?

There's something intensely passionate, about the way, she's responding to my Kiss, and clinging onto me right now. Its freaking driving me Nuts*Infinity, which is precisely the reason why I haven't been able to stop Kissing Her - yet. And I am not going to, for another minute at the least, or until she gestures me that she really needs to catch on her, breathe – again. I pull her, even more, snugly close into my frame, as I continue to kiss her – Madly.

A couple of minutes later, I feel Khushi lips, slow down in the intensity of their duel with mine, and her hand that was cupping my cheek, makes its way to clutch my tee, in a little fist around my collar which I think, is the signal for me, that she really needs to catch on a breath. I pause on kissing her, and let go of her lips, reluctantly now and she whispers, taking deep breathes, keeping her forehead on mine again – " so,that was like another, Requisition receipt for some Oxygen Intake – sent out from my Lungs, on an emergency basis..."

I chuckle - Happily.

How could I not?

Only she can make me chuckle, right after such a vulnerable, intense moment in between of Us.

I cup her face tenderly, as I open my eyes to look into hers and I ask – "Sparkle, you okay? As in I know, the way I just ravaged your lips, was very intense and I ...," and before I could complete my sentence, she keeps her fingers on my lips,and she says softly – "shh, don't worry at all, please..I loved it, I truly did...,"and I see her eyes glint with mischief now and I ask, narrowing my eyes at her – " what? what now? You just thought of something, didn't you?"

She nods and chuckles mischievously and gets off me, and I groan in disappointment and she says, walking to the desk in her room – "aree wait, na...I am going to be back by your side in just a second..."

I nod happily, as I see her – pick out the stationery pad of the hotel as, she walks back to take her seat next to me on the sofa in her room. She plonks herself, comfortably next to me, and hands me the notepad and Pen, and I gesture her to snuggle into my side, which she thankfully does and I ask, puzzled and amused as I hold onto the Notepad and Pen – " Sparkle, what's this for??"

Khushi chuckles, as she says – " it is for two very important things – I shall talk about the first thing, first, so my dearest Mr Stranger, how about you actually give me a Grade – as in like take a moment, think to yourself, how was your experience in the way I kissed you this time, I mean, was it any better from the last??"

I chuckle again,as I ask, looking at her – " what?? are you serious?? Like for real???"

She nods, adorably – " oh yes, I am very serious, Arnav.. like how would I know if I have improved or not na...now come on...please..."

I grin as I nod and write down, exactly what I told her the last time as well : A+.

And I hand the Notepad Back to Her as I say – " no surprises, there Sparkle, as in, I told you, well in advance that every moment spent with you gets an A+, for sure..."

Khushi kisses my cheek immediately as she narrows her eyes at me, and winks mischievously – " okay, I really love the sound of that, for real – again, makes me really feel all good and everything and I think all of my Insides, especially mi lips, just cheered in a lour Hurrah.."

I grin as I kiss her head, pulling her even close snugly to my side – " and the world cup for Adorableness, goes to my precious Sparkle, for sure.."

Khushi grins and looks up at me sideways – " ya ya...see, now you are giving me the World Cup, you are totally like a biased examiner ya....Arnav.."

I chuckle happily as I kiss her Cheek – " please note for every future reference, that I am always going to biased when it comes to you, Sparkle..."and I hug her happily to my side again as I ask – " ok now what's the second thing, you talking about, as in why do we need this notepad, now??"

Khushi takes the Notepad from my hand, and she turns over the page and says , grinning – " so you know we are all going like raw and authentic ok? as in why wait, until later. So I am just going to write this here, like on Paper, and give it to you, this very moment..."

I wait for her to finish writing whatever she is, and I am obviously trying to peep in and she turns around adorably as she says – " uff ya...wait no...like two minutes..."

Yup.

The World Cup of Adorableness, totally belongs to Her.

I chuckle, and I just hug her from behind in the meanwhile, by wrapping my arms around her waist, as she leans back into me, as she continues to write and she whispers – " what a cheater Mr. Stranger, you know I am not going to be able to resist this wonderful hug from you, and now you can totally comfortably look into what I am writing as well..."

We share a warm little laugh.

I kiss her cheek from Behind, my Heart glowing in Happiness as I Spot what she's written on the Notepad.

Added Annexure to Our Promissory Summons.

Promise No 6.0 – No Masquerade's or Filter's in between of US- Ever Pleaseee.

Date : 18/05/2019

Signed : Sparkle.Your Sparkle.

And she turns around a little, as she hands me the Notepad and says, grinning – "there you go...see, I wrote another one of my names in the Signature this Time which means that the promise from me to you is,like pakka se * infinity wala promise Arnav, you know since it's like i'd rather have all these filter's stick to their usual locations in the aquaguards and RO's water fliters..there's surely no place for them at all, in between you and me..."

I burst into happy giggles at that as I say, hugging her close from behind – " godammit Sparkle, only you can crack me up this way.."

Khushi chuckles, as she looks at me sideways and says sincerely – " I am glad I can make you laugh ya...for your laughter is like one of my favourite music numbers these days no..."

We share a warm laugh hugging each other close, and she says, just holding onto my hold on her tight, sincerity dripping in her voice – " I just mean that I prefer our comminucation to be like totally raw and non-filtered, like that water that gets piped up, straight from the borewells and grounds, for even though it has its share's of sediments, it's like in its truest natural form na....and that is exactly what I want to be in front of you, always, like in my natural true form no matter how what a whacky nut cracker I can be in my head sometimes, and I just want you to know that you can really talk to me about everything, I want you to be who you are as You, in your natural true self, with me too Arnav...as in...you mean so much to me, so so so much...and you know that..i don't think I have it in me to leave any kinda space for any masks/or filters when it comes to you.."

I grin as I take the Notepad from her hand now and say honestly – " give that to me please...I am also co-signing this promissory summon annexure, like right here..."

Khushi asks sincerely – " you want to make this promise right Arnav? I hope you don't feel like you have to...I mean I would never want to seem pushy or something, like that is not my intention at all..."

I smile as I smack her lips briefly – " I know exactly what your intentions are Sparkle, so don't you worry about that at all...and I am signing this, because I want to..not because I feel like I have too.."

Khushi asks – " pakka se na? like pakka *infinity se..??"

I nod – " yes...pakka * infinity se, for real Sparkle..now cmon let me, sign this first..., "and I go onto add another signed section under where she is Signed her name and write down my name as Your Stranger - there too, and once I have done that, she kisses on my cheek happily and she tears the paper from the notepad and folds it up all neatly and I ask, instantly – " can I keep this, please?? I'd like to tuck it in the secret walls of my Wallet, when I go back to the room...I shall share the picture with you later as well.."

Khushi nods – happily and hands it to me, and I quickly tuck it in the zipped pocket of my trackpants, for now. Right then, Khushi holds my hand, and laces it with hers and kisses on my hand, as she leans her head on my shoulder comfortably and says, softly – " please note, I do not mind you ravaging my lips again, Arnav...in fact I'd really love that, but you have the finals to play tonight, and I definitely want to talk to you about the Turmoil bit, before you leave for the game tonight, because I obviously want you to go into the game, with a free mind, and not be weighed down my anything else at the back of your head, on the personal front atleast, so Can we talk about this please?? I mean I just know that this Turmoil of yours has got everything to do with Hridhaan's presence around me, and maybe that's what also triggered you to come up with that idea, of having Bhai and Anjali fly down to Delhi for a bit...isn't it??"

I kiss her hand, and Nod, as I admit honestly – " yes that also kind of triggered the latter, but there are two other reasons for the latter too, but first I'd like to talk about the first one, also please know that the only reason why I was trying to mask it up was because I was uncertain about your reaction to this, as in I didn't want you to think that, I don't trust you or something, because I obviously do, more than anything, in my heart I am aware that to you he is just a friend and Shivi's brother....and also because I felt like id probably come across as a silly teenager, getting worked up with envy, and not like a matured man, who is about to turn 28 in days from now, because trust me when I say this Khushi, I have never felt so envious ever before, and I felt all that I did, maybe because of the deep ways in which I feel for you.."

Khushi clutches on my arm in a warm gesture, as she looks up at me sideways and says with an heartwarming smile – " I understand...I do...also,there's absolutely nothing silly about envy ya Arnav...as in it's a normal emotion, and now that I think of it, in my uncomfortable turmoil, when I saw yours and Pias pictures from the past, it was exactly envy that I felt too, perhaps?? Also please know that I could sense on the former bit too as in that this could be what you might be thinking, to yourself while trying to mask it up from me, that what if you think that I'd misunderstand your intention to be like gesture of mistrust or something but I would never misunderstand your intentions Arnav, because I obviously know it in my heart, that you really trust me..."

I ask, amazed – "you sensed this too??"

She nods instantly – " yes, I obviously did, look it's like you did not misunderstand my intentions when Pia's or Ayana's matter happened right??as in you understood where I was coming from , and at the same time you also knew that it wasn't because I didn't trust you or something, so I'd obviously understand too na...will you please tell me what's on your mind?? When did you start feeling this turmoil??"

I admit honestly – " well actually to be honest, it was that very day, in Jaipur, as in when I was walking out with Ravi for the match and I bumped into Shivani and him, I actually overheard Shivi and him talking about, how he found that earlier encounter with you very intriguing, and I could easily figure out by his tone, how he was hoping to run into you in the stands, that night.."

Khushi looks at me, with her eyes widened – "really??"

I nod as I kiss her head – " yup, and I also knew that you were clueless about the fact that you'd caught his interest, obviously I am aware about how Clueless you truly are, when it comes to these things Sparkle, as in you are totally oblivious to the affect you could have on men.."

Khushi pouts in dismay adorably as she asks – "I really need to do something about my cluelessness now, don't i?? how could I not catch onto this, right then??"

I chuckle as I kiss her cheek – " No, you don't need to do a thing about it, I wouldn't want you to change a single percent off about yourself, ever Sparkle, just be the way you are...k?"

Khushi nods and snuggles into my side – " please go on...talk to me, as in tell me everything, please...I just want to hear you out completely first..."

I nod and I do. I start to tell her about it all, right from the start until the very point – I came up with the Idea of having Rahul and Anjali, fly down to Delhi, for a couple of days, as a counter measure, so that we would get our families to meet, and about ten -fifteen minutes later, as I am done telling her that, I also add honestly – " and yes Sparkle, while we are at this topic, then I do want to admit to you the other two reasons, as to why I wanted to take a little advantage of Rahul and Anjali's equation, for our sake for now..."

She nods, and kisses my hand, and says – " please go on...I am listening..."

The sincerity in her eyes, as she's been patiently hearing me out freaking clean bowls, me again.

I admit, kissing her hand – " well, it wasn't just envy or jealousy driving that move on my part, as in yes I was obviously so very envious of Hridhaan, because it's like he was getting to be around you, to meet your parents, then the way he was hitting it off with your Dad, and then with the connection your mother's have, and then in my head, I am also aware of how you'd probably caught his interest too, right? so I just felt like having Rahul and Anjali formalise things would work in a lot of ways for us, as in, I am aware that we will both be very happy for our siblings first, then on top of that, I just thought that it would be the perfect way for me to get introduced to your parents Sparkle, as in I really want to get started on building a reppo with your Dad..."

Khushi kisses my hand – " why is there so much worry in your undertone as you say this Arnav? You know Dad is like your biggest fan.."

I nod as I hug her closer possessively – " yes, I know that, but he is a fan of my game, because of how I play cricket and everything, what I mean is that I want him to get to know me as a person I am , apart from Cricket, as a man, so that eventually he can picture me as the man he wouldn't mind seeing with his daughter, as in Sparkle, I know he is so possessive about you , and rightly so, you are so young and this is your first time being with anyone, and I would never want him to feel any kind off discomfort, because of your choice of wanting to be with me..."

Khushi kisses my hand, as her eyes widen innocently and she asks – " wait? But why do you think he'd feel any discomfort at all, Arnav??"

I admit honestly, shrugging – " I feel the same maybe because, all of India including your father, is very much aware of my very public past relationship with Pia, and I wouldn't want him or your mother, or even Rahul to ever think that I am not the right man as a partner for their precious daughter/sister, because of my past... I know your family is so important to you Sparkle, you love them so much, so I wouldn't want any of them to ever think that I am not the right choice for you.."

Khushi hugs me tight instantly as she says – " you are the right choice for me, I know it in my heart Arnav, and in the end, I know my happiness is all that matters to them..so even though I understand where your worry is stemming from, I do want to say that please don't worry about this much, ok? everything will be okay.."

I hug her back tight as I say – " yes, I know it will be okay, and that's why I have to start working on building a different equation with them, from now on so that eventually when they come to know about US, they wouldn't disapprove..."

Khushi hugs me tight – " I get it now, and to be honest to you, I am just a little bummed out that this entire situation with Hridhaan caused you discomfort, in the ways it did... and I know you know this, already, but I just want to say it out loud to you nonetheless Arnav, Hridhaan's just a friend to me, he's also Shivi's brother ,it's you I am Crazy about...that it's for you that I want to go around making these promissory summons, and sign off crazy self-declaration forms, I am Your Sparkle, dammit...please know that I would never ever do anything to break your trust.. "

I kiss her forhead immedaietly as I say, cupping her face – " I know that Sparkle..."

Khushi cups my face, just like I was cupping her's – " so remember I told you that I wanted to fill you in over a little talk that I had with Hridhaan, before boarding??"

I nod as I ask , loving the feel of her hand caressing my cheek – " yes, what about it??"

Khushi smiles – "so basically, It was kind off about me telling him very clearly that I already have someone very special in my Life..."

Ok.

That Makes My Heart – Jump Up in Glee for Sure.

I am sure my eyes have widened in pure Joy, as I ask caressing her cheek – " you told him that??"

Khushi nods and says softly – " yes I did, ofcourse...as in he asked me if everything that I was in the middle of being worried about in Jaipur was sorted or not, and I was like oh yes Hridhaan its all sorted, and I have truly never been happier and then he obviously asked if all of that and this happiness had everything to do with a special someone, and I obviously told him that it had everything to do with my special someone, immediately and then he just wished me all the best for everything, and I thanked him for his wishes, and the sincere look on his face as he wished me all the best and everything told me, that he understood the equation from my end ache se, as in that we can only be friends, and it was right then boarding began actually and Jess, Vikram and Shivi joint us, as we made our way into the p..l.."

I don't let her complete her sentence as I fist my hand in her hair tight, and pull her in even closer into my frame and kiss her immediately. Hard and Mindlessly.

I just had to.

Once again, I am deeply affected by the ways in which she is holding onto me, and I act on impulse and push her back into the sofa, as I get on top of her and continue to kiss her madly, as I wrap my one hand around her waist, caressing it gently and also pulling her closer into me. Khushi wraps her hands around my neck tight and starts to kiss me back with equal fervour and passion, as she acts on impulse and wraps her legs around my waist, making me groan on impact on the intensity of the moment as I keep my mind on alert for Control, because I knew this was all new to her. I had to take everything physical in between of us, very slow and steady too, because her comfort was obviously important to me. I never wanted her to regret even a second – she'd spent with me. I pull back from our intense kiss for a second, as I ask – " you ok Sparkle? Please tell me if you aren't feeling okay or comfortable, I would never want you to regret even a single second in between of us.."

Khushi cups my face and caresses my cheek – " I am okay..i would never regret even a single second in between of us, ever Arnav..."and she closes her eyes adorably and says – " ok..let me just say this out loud...it's just that...since all of this is so new for me, I do want to gain like more expertise in just Kissing you, for now...would that be okay?as in for you? ummm...god this is embarrassing...why am I such a fool..."

I chuckle as I say, kissing her nose – " no, you are not a fool...and no filter's in between of us remember?? So open your eyes please? And look into mine.."

Khushi does.

I admit caressing her cheek with my thumb – " I am more than okay with the pace in our relationship on every spectrum Khushi.. you decide the course and the speed of it all, and I am more than just happy to be with you through it all, because that's what matters to me – You...Your comfort about all of this obviously takes priority...so tell me now...are you okay and comfortable as I am holding you close this way??do you want to talk about what's okay for you on the physical tangents, so that I can stick to my boundaries...for now.."

She nods happily ,caressing my cheek – " yes, okay...lets talk that out...I mean to start with..yes,this is okay, as in I am more than just comfortable in being embraced with you this way,also I am very comfortable with your caresses too Arnav....it's just that..i'd..."she pauses and closes her eyes again and says – " ohhh god...how do I say this??"

I caress her cheek lovingly – " just say it..please??"

Khushi says instantly, with her eyes still scrunched up adorably – " I'd be comfortable with anything, for now as long as we keep our clothes on..as in until I get more accustomed to all of this perhaps?"

I grin – " ok point noted Sparkle.Clothes On. You are comfortable, with me kissing you madly...caressing you, and you don't mind us being embraced this way...too?"

She nods adorably, opening her one eye to look at me, and asks – " is that okay??? " and I kiss her cheek again as I say sincerely – " more than just okay...trust me...please know that I would never do anything that you wouldn't want, like ever Sparkle.."

She nods – "I know...and I do trust you...on that.."

I ask, pushing her hair behind a little, caressing her neckline – " and just checking ,can I kiss you here?"

Khushi smiles and nods – " yes, you can ..."

I grin as I say – " ok..noted.."and I bend forward and place a soft kiss at the side of her neck first and she trembles and moans my name in my arms just as I do that, making all of my Insides groan collectively. Her moans, drive me Nuts. Obviously.

I kiss the other side of her neckline and I whisper softly in her ear – " so you know the third reason why I was actually driven to have Rahul and Anjali fly to Delhi?"

Khushi whispers as she clutches on my arm tight, as I continue to trail down soft kisses down her neckline - " ahaan?? what's the third reason??"

I lean up on my hand and wink at her mischeviosuly as I say – " it will help me get more chances of seeing you in Delhi , right? as in we are both going to be in Delhi for a while , and a couple of our family meetings will mean that I will get to see you nonetheless, even though we will be in the pretend mode.."

Khushi grins mischeviously – " oohhhhh, I am so very thrilled by this, for real.. I must say that's very clever off you Skipper Blue, one move and it serves so many of your purposes..."

I chuckle as I admit – " what can I say Sparkle? Dire times call for fastracked measures now don't they??"

Khushi nods and cups my face tenderly – " but hey..tell me once again, you feel okay about the whole hridhaan situation right? as in I am obviously going to keep a distance and be just friends with him , because we do get along as friends and there will be times, I will see him because of our mother's or Shivi...so...if you aren't comfortbale, ill think of ways to avoid him maybe...because your comfort is more important to me Arnav....i am so sorry...about causing you so much..turmoil unknowingly.."

I keep my finger on her lips as I say – " shhh...please don't be sorry at all...and no I do not want you to figure out ways to avoid him Sparkle, I am aware that the equation is such that there will be times that he will be around you, and It isn't just that, I am truly at complete comfort and peace now, now that we'v had this talk, I mean now that I have voiced it all out to you, it does seem to get more sorted in my head...and youv made things so very clear to him from your end as well, I don't think he will anyway do anything to act out of line..but beyond all of that, it's the fact that I trust you more than anything Sparkle, "

Khushi nods as caresses my cheek – "thank you for that Arnav..I am so glad that we finally talked about this..i mean our relationship is long distance, and there are obviously going to be people around us, at times, men around me, or women around you...but as long as we tell each other everything and trust one another, we should be okay? Right? as in I will obviously always believe and trust in your word,always too Arnav, because It feels like in my heart, you would never do anything to break my trust, or hurt me... "

I nod caressing her cheek back - " yes, I agree..as long as we tell each other everything and trust one another, everything will be okay...and yes Sparkle...I would never hurt you, in anyway whatsoever, I would also never break your trust...I promise you that with all my heart...again...". She nods and continues to caress my cheek and I continue to caress her's our eyes continue to stay locked in an intense eyelock. I am completely smitten by the moment in between of us, because it felt so close and intimate as in even though we were not even kissing in the moment, just the fact that we were talking this way, holding onto each other tight and being embraced closely– had a lot of intense power in it. I say now, looking intently into her eyes – " and well now that we are at it...I might as well be honest, I am not a hypocrite Sparkle, as in I truly have no qualms about you being friends with another guy or something, its just that I'd probably just get a little envious of anyone, who gets to spend more time with you, or around you...because I obviously want more time with you myself..."

Khushi narrows her eyes mischeviously as she asks – "ahaaan really?? like is it so?? so you mean is there a possibility that you feel envious of Jess too? As in you know since she is with me, like most of the time???"

I wink at her as I admit – " kind off...yes, I mean yes there are times that I have wished to be in Jess's place, as well...I told you, you'v driven me crazy, where is that Self declaration form...haan?"

Khushi chuckles – " ill make one for us soon...I promise...," and she kisses my cheek softly and says – " all the best for the final tonight, Arnav..."

I kiss her forhead – " thank you Sparkle..."and I wink and ask – " how about If you kiss me all the best, until its time for me to head back to my room....i mean that would be like a cherry on the Cake of Good Luck for me, indeed..."

Khushi chuckles and nods – " obviously ya, like why would I deny you that cherry on the cake of good luck ya Arnav...don't you know I shall be dressed as a true Bangalore fan tonight, again..like jersey, cap...flag...full get up on...like so what if its Wankhede, please know that Your Sparkle will be on screaming her lungs out, cheering for you all nonetheless...like irrespective of the result.."

I chuckle happily and she says, continuing to caress my cheek – " I know it's a very high pressure game, and before you give me another happy hour bonus ticket to ArnavLand and my Lips go into that familiar tranz as my insides take on their hot air balloon flight, id like to share a funny thing with you...can i??"

I grin as I brush her hair outta her forhead and kiss her softly – ofcourse Sparkle, tell me..."

Khushi looks into my eyes and says – " well not that you need like any advice because you obviously have like tons of gaming experience...but its just something I often think to myself when I am consumed in intense high pressure gaming situations, so that it helps me feel all at ease so that I can still keep my focus on giving it my best shot in the field, as in we may win or lose, but atleast I will know in my heart that I gave it my best shot nonethelss and did not get weighed down by the intense momentary gaming pressure..."

I ask, intrigued – " okkk, and now I am really interested to know what this thought is...Sparkle.."

Khushi winks at me and rolls her eyes mischievously – " it's quite crazy and whacky though, but well you know me, so yeah here it goes – so I literally had this thought in my head just recently as in when we played the domestic semi's and then finals, for you know they were such high pressure games, so there I was telling myself on the pitch...Khushi just think off this momentary pressure to be like those thief/or robbers, who have come to steal you off that focus energy of yours, that's going to direct you to give it your best shot nonetheless...c'mon you can't let this thief get away with the robbery off your focus energy...just be ready to protect your focus, with your favourite weapon in hand, which is your bat...and obviously this thought made my insides laugh out loud and that momentary ease just helped me keep my mind on my gaming focus...so that I could give it my best to the team and to my game in those matches...."

I chuckle instantly as I say – " ok trust me, Sparkle, I have thought of many things in those intense pressure moments, but never did this come to my mind at all – and I think if I were to think of high intense pressure gaming moment as a potential robber at my door, I definetly think it would help easen up my nerves a little in the moments for sure...so thank you for sharing this with me..i loved the tip...my little hit girl.."

Khushi chuckles – " very funny..Skipper Blue, and you are most welcome, or wait should I just say Skipper Red for today you know since your jersey is Red, in the IPL...on that note, its almost 5pm now, you do need to get going soon, let me just put that alarm on..i don't want you to get late ya..."and she is about to get up from our embraced position and I hold her back to her spot, stopping her as I say – " don't worry about it, I texted Jess to call us on the landline of your room by around 520ish..."

She grins – " we can never thank her enough.."

I nod in agreement – " we can never thank her enough, indeed..."

I ask, brushing my thumb over her lips now – " you will see me tonight right? after the game??"

Khushi nods as she kisses my cheek – " ofcourse I will see you tonight, Arnav.."

I wink at her – " great, Sparkle, which means irrespective the result, I already feel like I won the final already.."

Khushi rolls her eyes mischeviously and adorably as she says – " haha.. as if...ya...you..."and before she can say anything further, I close my lips over hers, as I start to kiss her madly and deeply, again.

She instantly wraps her hands around my neck and laces one of her hands in my hair, and starts to kiss me back with equal fervour. I dominate our passionate embrace in intense ways, so that she knows that I most definitely was not going to let her breathe at all, until the landline in her room buzzed with Jess's call, and it was time for me to get going for the Final.

I don't know what the Result of the Tournament is going to Be. But in my Heart, I know for sure that irrespective the win or loss in the game later on - Today, was just going to be one those Precious Memorable Days of my Life.

Why?

Do I even need to answer that Guys?

It's obviously, because My Sparkle is Here.

TADAAAAA!!!!!

How was the Update Guysssss?? (wink winkkkkk.....)

Let me know what you guys think as always, you all know I love reading your feedback and comments.

And yes.

Next Update : I will try my best to Give another Update by late Saturday evening. ( you know just incase, I can't stop my fingers from flowing on the Keypad, and go into another - 'Dawn time, writing sessions', ...hehe..) But yes,because of my prior work stuff the rest of today and some more stuff coming up tomorrow, I also do not want to make like a Promise and set expectation for the same, just incase I am not able to finish writing the update. (so, chances for Update on Saturday are like 50-50...😊)

Thanks, guys, for all the Love and Support.

Much Love Guys.

Always.
