The first rays of sun fell on her face. She rubbed her bleary eyes, got up from bed and walked to the window. Just risen sun was shining softly on the streets. She stood there and was looking outside. The infinite blue sky and beautiful fluffy white clouds were looking like angels smiling at her. Birds were chirping as if singing a song of love. Everything was so beautiful and serene. She smiled, this morning brought her lots of joy, hope and the new beginning!!She got ready, lightened up diya, prayed and thanked God for everything. Then she went to the kitchen and prepared Jay's favorite breakfast masala dosa , coconut chutney and ginger tea. some sheer joy of happiness was flowing through her veins, she started singing....                     Dil ne kaha chupke se                     Yeh kya hua chupke se                     Kyun naye lag rahe hai ye dharati gagan                     maine puchha to boli ye pagali pavan                     pyar hua chupke se                     yeh kya hua chupke se....She was so engrossed into herself that she did not realize how loudly she was singing.Jay woke up to her voice, came to the living room. He preferred not to disturb her, softly sat on sofa and was enjoying her song.After few minutes Prachi came out of her room, rubbing her eyes and said,"kya hua Mita, subeh subeh ro kyun rahi ho??  (what happend Mita, why are you crying so loudly?)"Mita stopped singing, saw that Prachi looking at her with naughty eyes, teasing her. Then she turned towards living room and noticed Jay sitting on sofa with wide smile on his face and lots of love in his eyes. She blushed and then bit her tongue, "sorry guys!"Prachi said, "Someone seems to be on cloud nine today, right Jay? But this is not fair. Someone is in Love and I am not able to sleep...why should I get the punishment???""Oh ..come on Prachi, I said sorry.", Mita covered her face in her palms and ran to her room.Jay and Prachi started laughing. "wow...today breakfast is ready so early..yummy yummy dosa. Looks like it is a treat from someone to  someone special", Prachi gave a look at Jay. "hmm ..I think so..", Jay smiled.After sometime they all sat together and enjoying today's special breakfast. "mmmmm....wow Mita, I love you..today's breakfast is super tasty", Prachi."Yes Mita, this aloo masala is really nice..spicy and tangy", Jay."But what is so special today Mita? How come you got up so early on weekend and prepared all these dishes?", Prachi."Nothing special guys. I just felt like doing so. I feel so happy. Also today I am going to call my parents and tell them about Jay", Mita.Jay started coughing....."oh my God.. what happened Jay? Look up..have a sip of water.", Mita immediately gave him a glass of water."Is it too spicy??",,she was worried.Jay kept his calm ,"it is perfect. But why do u want to tell your parents about us?"Mita: "what? what do you mean? Shouldn't we tell them?"Jay: "mm I didn't mean that. Of course we should but why so early??"Mita: "Early? You announced our marriage that day, did you forget??"Jay: "No I did not. How can I? What are you asking?""What am I asking? What happened to you? What are you asking?", Mita interrupted Jay.Prachi was looking at them turn by turn and enjoying dosa at the same time.Jay: "I mean, we can wait for some more days...."Mita: "But why to wait now? See Jay, I have always shared a smallest thing of my life with my parents. How can I not share such a big news? I am so happy and excited to tell them about us.  And I am so sure they will be excited too."Jay: "hmm. I understand that. But.."Mita: "What is bothering you Jay? Prachi, am I saying anything wrong?"Prachi nodded her head and said, "yeah you are right."Jay: "mmmmm..."Mita: "So, today I am going to call my parents in sometime and tell them about us."To be continued......                           Â
