Vennela was looking at me. Teja was smiling after he saw me laughing. That was the moment all those questions arouse and answers were found immediately within my self.
From the time Teja entered my life, the thing which occupied my thoughts the most was him! I was so much irritated by his presence! Even now, he is laughing like a monkey in front of me. Irritating! I was irritated because of his actions. I could have eliminated all that in a second if I wished but I didn't. Why? I realized that I really wanted him to be around. The way he shows attitude! The way he takes action! The way he expressed commitment towards our future relationship. It's all very impressive! My heart rate grew higher. I remembered those memories where my heartbeat got higher from the last few days. It was all because of Teja. I realized that I was attracted to his behavior for a long time. I can't even remember when this started.
I smiled and asked Teja, "Why are you bothering me Teja?".
He smiled and answered me, "I am not bothering you! You misunderstood me! I want to be happy just like you! Your simple personality is really something! You get happy with almost everything! You are smart and you look good!". He turned to Vennela and asked her, "Isn't it Vennela?". Vennela's eyes were wide open. She smiled, nodded her head sighing a yes and she went aside.
I countered him saying, "There are many people who are smart, good and with a simple personality! Why don't you go and bother someone else Teja?".
He smiled at me and stood up. He spoke those words and left me there, "Ash! I was lucky enough to meet you! I will hold you instead of going around!". Vennela followed him saying good night.
Those words were simple but the impact was powerful. I felt some powerful feeling rushing inside me. My heart was trying to pump harder. I smiled and went inside the penthouse.
A few days passed!
One day after office, I reached home and saw my mom calling on phone. I took her call.
"Ash Darling! Did you eat your dinner?", She asked.
I can clearly sense she wants to speak something else. "Mom! I just reached home! I still have to cook. Shall I call you back after some time?".
"Ash Darling!"
"Yes, Mom!"
Dad sent you some messages. Did you have a look?
Oh! Is it? I switched on the speaker and opened my dad's messages.
They were photos and bio-data of T E J A. Teja! I felt like laughing.
"Mom! I know him! Why are you sending me his profile?", I asked her.
She answered me, "That's just a formality Ash! So! What do you think about him?".
I wasn't answering and was thinking. What to say to my mom and dad?
"What do you think?", I asked her. She was delivering me the thoughts of my father, "Papa thinks that the family is really good. He is interested!"
I smiled and asked her, "What about you mom? What do you think?".
She said, "I think he is handsome!". I laughed out loud. She laughed too. I spoke to Anshu's parents, Anvesh, Anshu and few other family friends. They all gave very good feedback on this kid. I don't want to get him away." I was laughing without any sound.
She was so much impressed with him and his family. She started speaking about her conversations with people. May she spoke with around 15 people. It was a very long call. I was getting hungry.
"Mom! Your networking skills are amazing! Let's speak later! I am going to cook now!", I interrupted her.
She said, "Hm! All is good! But... But you said that you don't like him!".
Did I say that? When? I tried recollecting! Yes, I told her that I don't like him.
"Mom, Please.....Do we really have to discuss this now?". She replied instantly, "Yes! We have to!". I was muted, thought for a moment before I spoke, "I don't hate him! He is OK!".
She repeated my words, "You don't hate him! He is Ok!!" and asked me back, "Then, are you okay to marry him?"
"Whaat?.. Mom!!", I wasn't answering her.
She repeated my words, "Whaat?... Mom!!" and asked me back, "What does that mean?"
"That means I want to cook and eat! Don't irritate me mom! Lets speak later! Bye!"
"But.." She spoke back and my dad snatched away that phone from her, "Call you later Ash! Have dinner first!". Oh! She was repeating so that my dad can know what I am speaking! She should just have switched on the speaker. I laughed at them and started cooking.
