Final: SHE's with ME

The night passed by in a blink of an eye. We were contented, feeling complete as we were two bodies one soul by the morning. The distance between us, since six months has vanished like it never existed. The company of each other, the smile which we bring to each other by just being with each other is that matters the most at present. I never wanted this time to end. Never wanted Zarek to go back again, never wanted him to leave me for any reason, what so ever. But not everything you want can happen… I knew he has to go again for completing his training before he can get his final posting.

We headed towards his parents’ home in the morning. They were surprised to see both of us together but their surprise was smaller than the happiness which they were feeling by seeing their son after six long months. Mrs. Ludwig has made all his favorite dishes and Mr. Ludwig has another surprise for him in store. He presented him with a dashing grey colour suit and announced that we are getting engaged on Sunday morning. That was the best news ever I have heard since my arrival in Denmark. I was feeling like on the seventh cloud and it seems that nothing better than this can ever happen to me in life. We were delighted to know the news and I was happy to know that my parents are also dropping in by evening, which they wanted to keep a surprise but got flashed in the way of other news. Zarek’s mom instructed him to take me for shopping to buy a pretty dress for myself for tomorrow. And he followed her instructions. We went to the Indian boutique so that I can choose something similar to what I always wanted to wear on my special day. And finally, after spending about an hour, I got something which I always wanted to have.

By the evening, when we were back home, My parents were already there. They were extremely happy to see me and so were me. The joy to see me getting hooked with the guy full of self esteem and the person self made is the proud feeling for them. They knew that he is the perfect choice and I cannot be happier than this. By the mid night, we all were dead tired and wanted to take some rest. Also me and Zarek wanted to look the fresh flowers on our day, so we decided to head towards our rooms.

Immediately after coming out of the place where they all were sitting, and on the way towards their room; Zarek stopped in between and pinned me to a wall. His lips descended on mine. The warmth of his mouth was intoxicating. His tender kiss was so sensuous. I was excited, terrified, nervous, exploding with desire. A sensation, like a bolt of lightning shot through me. “Aarshiiii”, his voice became unraveled at the edges. My mouth lifted from his, gazing into his eyes. He kissed my trembling lips again. A silent despairing groan locked in my throat. Our mouths met in an explosion of mutual need. His fingers splayed the flesh at my neck, my body tingled. I wanted to feel his masterful fingers more but then with a noise, we parted ourselves from each other and moved towards our respective rooms after saying good night to each other.

The next day, the big day for us…… Zarek's dad went to him and told him that before he ties the knot and say “I DO” to me, he wanted to share few words with him and he continued like this:

“My son, treat it like a journey, a beautiful journey, you two have to make. If life was a boat, you two would be the sailors weaving carefully through the storms. Your job will be to cherish her, love her and always remember that she will make mistakes and so will you. You will have to learn to accept her for all she is.” And with all these lessons, Zarek and I got engaged for the life time.

          After a training of one more year, he came back to our city to complete his training for the next six months before he can join the job. And during the training only, he got an apartment near to my university. That day we were meeting after seven months. He came to my university and I had to meet him after my classes. He came closer and said “I’ve missed you so much,” he hugged me fiercely. It was there when I looked into his eyes. Everything I have ever hoped for, his love only for me, his devotion only for me, his eyes said it all. I met his gentle, tender gaze filled with love and adoration… only for me. My eyes seared his, my lips trembled, no words could escape my mouth, but he was patiently waiting and I wanted to say it back desperately. “Zarek”, I threw my arms around him, lifted my face, my lips reaching his, we kissed each other passionately, until I drew away to catch my breath, “I missed you too”.

“I love you Aarshi and want to marry you right away”, he said. “Oh Zarek! I know you said you love me ____ more than once”, I smiled happily, “but I was not expecting a proposal…… well not this soon”. He reached into his overnight bag and retrieved a box, and carefully drew a superb flashy diamond ring from it, promptly slipping it onto my ring finger. “YOU BELONG TO ME AARSHI”, he exclaimed passionately. “Now will you marry me?” he demanded.

“Shouldn’t you asked first before you inserted your ring on my finger?”, I smiled and asked.  “Tell me you will marry me Aarshi”. “I will Zarek, Yes I will”, I wishpered.

          And we married sooner than soon. It’s my result day today. I went to Zarek’s office and asked his PA if he is expecting me and free to attend to me. “Go right ahead”, she winked. “He just buzzed me a minute ago and asked if you’ve arrived”. “Thank you”, I smiled and rushed into my man’s office.

          “Zarek”, I ran into his arms before he was barely out of his seat. He still made my heart beat faster than normal. I still find it difficult to tear my eyes away from his attractive body. Zarek’s eyes glowed indulgently. I looked radiant this morning he thought. There was understandably a glowing sparkle about me, and he knew exactly why.

          “Okay, tell me about your distinctions?” He grinned, pinning me into his arms and kissing me on my lips. He always find it difficult to keep his hands off me. He always find excuses to touch me.  He knew that I have come to tell him that I have passed. “Distinctions?”

          “Yes darling, your result came out today”. “Oh…… I have not checked yet”. “Why ever not?” he laughed. “Because I have better news than that!” I smiled ecstatically, wrapping my arms around his neck.

          “Oh? Aarshi you’ve already married me and I know that you have passed your exams that too with distinctions. What can be better than this?”

          “YOU ARE GOING TO BE A DADDY”

Nine months later…………

          Aarshi gave birth to a gorgeous baby girl… the splitting image of her pretty mummy, but surprisingly with a thick chunk of spiky blonde hair and gorgeous blue eyes, clearly paternal genes. Zarek lifted his bundle of joy from the hospital cot and cradled her in his arms.

          “I love you, Aarshi. Thank you for blessing me with a gorgeous little daughter”, his eyes welled with tears. “My wife you have made me the happiest man in the world”

          “I love you too”, she murmured, reaching towards him, “As I am” reaching to her husband’s lips in a passionate kiss.

THE END

Part 6: SHE's with ME

I shook my head in an attempt to not to think much and to miss Zarek. I was never one to hide my emotions. What was the point of having these feelings if you couldn’t admit to them, even to yourself? All I knew was that I had never felt this way before with anyone else… Like something I could hold on to for a long time. It felt really good to be with Zarek and now I was missing him like anything.

And finally, after about six long months, Zarek is coming over for a weekend. We all were very excited and happy, specifically me, as I was missing him too badly now. So this weekend, I also have a plan to visit his parent’s house. On Friday afternoon, I got a call on my hostel’s landline. It can only be from his parent’s coz no one else usually calls me at that number. So I thought that they must be calling me to inquire about my arrival plans and of course about having some surprises fixed for Zarek. I went towards the common room where I have to attend the call. Before I could say Hello, I heard the voice of Zarek across.

“Hey Aarshi, how are you doing this morning? I know you are surprised rather shocked to hear my voice that too on this landline number at this hour of the day, but I couldn’t do anything else other than this. Because there is no other way to contact you.” Zarek said, without letting me speak even a single word till now. He further asked, “So do you miss me?” I could just say, “Do you have any doubt in that? I wish if I could see you just right away, without waiting for tomorrow.” He said, “Come out after your classes, and find me waiting for you there.” And that was the moment I just went blank. I could not wait for the classes to get over, I somehow, attended the classes till end and immediately after that I ran outside the campus.

I was ignorant of everything except that Zarek was walking towards me. Tears welled in my eyes, trickling down my cheeks, jubilation filled my heart. Zarek studied me from head to toe. “Tell me, they’re tears of joy…. I love you!” he groaned, drawing me into his arms. Zarek reached out his thumb and brushed away my tears. “I love you,” he repeated. He dipped his head and brushed his lips to mine. “I missed you so much”, I hugged him tightly and he continued to wipe away my tears. “Zarek”! I threw my arms around him, lifted my face, my lips reaching for his, “I love you too”. We kissed passionately, until I drew away to catch my breath.

Now it was Zarek to instruct the plan further. Although I had a plan to go to his parent’s house this evening; but he told me to call them and tell that I will be able to come only tomorrow morning as something urgent has come up and I cannot leave this evening. I have also been instructed to not to reveal that Zarek is already here. And as per the instructions, I did the same.

“Now let’s get out of here first”, he told while dragging me to the exit gate of the campus. I enquired about where we are going, but then that was also a surprise for me. To my surprise, Zarek also had a car, he drove with one hand on the wheel and the other tightly laced to me. Occasionally he would look across at me and smile, I would inhale and smile back. “Did you give your class, your undivided attention?” I nobbed in NO and told him that I could not. He then told that one of his training fellows has an apartment here and that is not occupied today. So he has borrowed the keys to that for one night and that is the place we are heading towards now.

Just after some 20 minutes, he parked the car hastily outside his friend’s apartment. He also had a small bag pack, possibly for weekend stay, which he carried in one of his hands. He linked his free hand in mine and led me inside the apartment. We were barely inside when Zarek impatiently drew me into his arms. His head dipped, capturing my already parted lips, gentle and tender. I responded with breathless fervor. He undid my top, his eyes drinking in my body. His mouth touched my quivering lips, my breathing was ragged, my eyes wide with desire. His palms splayed against my soft flesh; warm and pliable against his touch.

My cheeks were ruby red. Shyly my eyes lifted to his. Zarek laughed softly at my admiring gaze. I had been too shy, too nervous for the first time. “You are so beautifully shaped”, he groaned pleasurably. “So are you”, I heaved. “I don’t know how I kept my hands off you as long as I did. It’s a miracle actually.” He said. I laughed softly. “Zarek____ “I looped my arms around his neck, loving the feel of our bodies, flesh to flesh. My lips dragged to his hungrily.

He took me to the bed, holding onto me tightly, lips locked in the passionate embrace and hands clinched tightly onto each other. Gently he lowered me onto the bed. He kissed my stomach… instinctively my muscles tightened in response under his lips. I started burning up with desire, twisting impatiently beneath him, his every soft caress was erotic, pleasurable and satisfying. We sunk deep in each other, repeating the pulsating thrill, sometime slow… the other moment faster….. we had each other to the point of no return.

We were laying in each other’s arms, satiated, our bodies tangled together. My fingers stroking his skin caressingly. He was doing the same, brushing tiny kisses down the column of my neck, nuzzling and nibbling my flesh until I was quivering with an aching need for him all over again. And then I made a concerted effort to break away from him. I was smiling shyly, my eyes trained on him curiously.

“What?” Zarek chuckled.

“I can’t believe you love me this much when you are miles away from me and surrounded by so many stunning women_____!” He smiled and confirmed that I am at the top position in the list where practically no one else exists. And that is how we had a memorable stay for a whole night, for the very first time, together.

Part 5: SHE's with ME

The very next morning, his parents talked with my parents over a phone call. First of all they informed them about Zarek’s job test result and then they further asked them my hand in marriage for Zarek. My parents wanted to know my willingness before they could take any decision, to which his parents convinced them that this is something which both of us wanted. My mom and dad were happy to know this but at the same time they were little sad to know that I will be so far away from them. But as in past, they have been agreeing to all my wishes, this time also they agreed to it without being fussy about anything. Zarek parents’ informed both of us about my parent’s decision and we were happy.

Today we have a plan to celebrate Zarek’s success and my parent’s agreement on the proposal. So we decided to go out for dinner. This was a special day for me and I was very excited about everything life has in store for me. I looked myself in the mirror and smiled. I was wearing a red dress that ended right below my knees, it was really pretty yet simple. My hair was down and I added a bit of makeup. I looked at the clock and saw it was five minutes before seven. I opened my room and walked down the stairs. Once I stepped on the last stair, Zarek come into my view. He was wearing a black suit with the black pants and that made him look the perfect.

At first he looked shocked, did I not look good? But then his eyes started to roam over my body, I blushed and walked closer to him. “You look beautiful Aarshi”, he said while looking me in the eyes. “Thanks, you don’t look bad yourself”, I smiled. He grabbed my hands in his large ones and crashed his lips on mine. And before he could go any further I reminded him that we have to go for dinner. He looked little upset about it as he wanted something else at the moment but then I pushed him towards the door.

We headed towards a place, which I had no clue about as this was supposed to be a surprise for me. And finally we were there, outside a fancy looking restaurant. We walked towards the door while Zarek’s arm was wrapped around my waist. Once we entered the restaurant, my eyes widened. It was so beautiful. This is one of the perfect place for celebrating the perfect thing. And the evening went on in the perfect way possible.

After a month Zarek’s training is to start. And now he is not continuing with his part time job after university. Hence we are meeting for longer hours in the evening after my classes. Life was going great until I realize that the month is about to get over and I will not be able to meet with him this often till the time he will be attending his training and that too for two long years. As the day of his departure was approaching, I was getting saddened. He could make out the sadness clouding my face and mind, but he also knew that all his efforts to cheer me up will go waste, even if he tries.

The day is finally here when in the evening Zarek will leave for quite a long time on his job training. I am the saddest person in the house. I have already started feeling like some part of my body, in the absence of which possibly I'll die, is going to get away from me. I have already started feeling incomplete. Zarek did all the packing in the morning and have officially met everyone with a promise that he will keep them updated about him and that he will take good care of himself. At least that was the most important thing for his parents. His assurance, of course, was important for me too as I knew that he must have also been feeling the same as me, at present.

His mom, being the most understanding and loving to both of us, asked us to go out to have some air before Zarek leaves. Actually she knew that both of us needed each other’s company more than anything else at the moment and that is what she gave us. Immediately after moving out of the house, towards the lawn, tears stated to roll on my cheeks without any stop. I just couldn’t keep my feelings inside me anymore. I wanted to tell him to not to go, but I just couldn’t say that too as this is what he have been putting in his efforts for so long. He was sad too. He told me not feel bad, he said that he will keep in touch and he will make sure that I will not miss him too much. But I knew it somewhere down in my heart that all that he is saying at the moment is not going to happen because of his busy schedule during training and also because of the increased restrictions on him in the campus. But I had no option other than to ensure him that I will do what he said and be a good girl.

Now it’s time for us to drop Zarek at the airport from where he has to continue his journey alone. His parents allowed me to go alone with him to the airport. They waved him goodbye and with all their good wishes, we left in the car of his dad. He decided to drive till airport and I was the one to get back home driving. We stopped just before the airport. His eyes shuttered for a moment, then he returned his gaze to me with an endearing smile. I found him irresistible. I leaned across and kissed him lingeringly on his lips. His hands reached out, sinking into my hair, pulling me closer, deeping the kiss. “Till later”, I reluctantly pulled away and opened the door. Before I could get out, Zarek was already there to assist me out. “Bye”, I laughed nervously, feeling awkward about being dropping off Zarek for a long time now and something which I just don’t want to do.

Zarek boldly gathered me into his arms, lowered his head and continued kissing me until we got interrupted by the cheeky wolf whistles in our ears. “Enjoy your stay and work hard to get through the training successfully”, I said while pulling him away from me. He also told me to study hard and not to miss him too badly. And finally he started to move towards the entry gate. I stared him for long time, hating the increasing distance separating me from him. And suddenly he is gone. I knew why he didn’t turned to see me even once because that would have made his departure even more difficult. And he is gone!
