Roshani was very excited that she had finally got the chance to go to her home after a long and tedious period of gruelling hard-work and hectic travelling due to work. She reached the Mumbai airport just in time for her flight, but was dismayed to find out that it was delayed and she had to wait for an hour, before boarding time.
She had checked in and sat in a coffee shop and really did not know what to do. So she flipped out her phone and was just looking at her Instagram page, when she heard a smart and crisp male voice behind her. She turned around and found herself looking at a handsome young man, who was tall, fair and had piercing brown eyes. She asked as to what was the matter and he requested her to allow him to sit on the vacant chair at her table as the coffee shop was jam-packed and had no place to sit.
She did not bother much and just nodded and told him to sit. After sometime they got talking and she was amazed that they got along very well in a very short time!
They spoke about similar things and were laughing most of the time. She felt that spring in her heart when she smiled at him and he looked deep into her soul, like as though he was searching for affirmation. That table where they sat, seemed to be surrounded by an aura of love and it was so evident from their faces which depicted the joy of being together.
Then the man suddenly remembered that he was getting late for his flight and bid her goodbye, before leaving in a rush. Roshani was not only surprised, but amazed at how did she meet such a loving person, so suddenly, and how he just vanished in thin air!
Before she could still get to terms with what had happened, her flight was announced and she paid the bill and left.
Days passed into weeks and weeks into months. Life went on as usual for Roshani. She had had a great time in Mumbai and had spent quality time with her family, celebrating Diwali and other festivals and came back to Delhi.
After a few days she had gone to Bangalore to attend her close friend’s wedding. She was glad to be by her side and help her dress up as a bride and actively helped her friends family in marriage preps as well, as she had known them for years.
On the final day of the wedding, she was quite hassled because she was managing quite a few things of the wedding. Then she chanced to see someone enter the marriage venue and there he was looking handsome as ever!
At first she could not believe her eyes, that is it really him or is he someone who resembles him. But, then he started walking towards her, smiling warmly and waving his hand. She thought that she might be dreaming, but when he spoke to her in a soft voice, all her fears flew out of the window and she hugged him tight.
She held him close and whispered into his ears saying how glad she was to finally meet him after such a long time. He held her face in his palms, oblivious of all the wedding guests around them and looked deeply into her eyes and told her that he loved her! It was so spontaneous and she gave a shy smile and hugged him again. They then went out into the lawn away from the din and music in the wedding venue and sat on a bench talking through the night and did not even realise when it was morning time! When Roshani’s Mom called her then it seemed like both of them were startled out of a trance and she moved away from Karan, though reluctantly.
They exchanged numbers and promised to be in touch.
As time passed their love bloomed as they kept meeting off and on and felt so blessed that the one chance meeting at the airport had brought them together.
After a few months they met each others families and got married and they decided to go on their Honeymoon to Mumbai, to mark it as a symbol of the place where it all began and they wanted to begin this new chapter of married bliss from that city, where they first met.
