Mahi went through every page of the file. “Everything is perfect. What a genius?”, astonished Mahi. Before the last page of the file, she found a paper in which she read
Mahi,
I am not good in writing such letters and I have not tried this before. I admire you for what you are. I like your self esteem, confidence and intelligence. Besides you are beautiful too. I have never seen such a mixture, with any girl. And you are the one and only girl I have ever admired. All I want to say is I Love you and I would like to marry you. I won’t force you or trouble you. But, I believe that you too like me.
With Love
Ajay
Mahi was shocked. She had never expected such things from a person whom she respects a lot. She sat still for sometime, resonating the letter in her mind. “How can he be so cheap?... He is not cheap…just expressed his love… how can he have such an opinion about me?...it's good that at least he had expressed everything now…I like him…but I won't marry him… My family is more important”, Mahi kept racing her mind with so many questions and thoughts.
She finished scrutinizing the file and went back to Ajay. “Ajay, I finished reviewing the file”, said Mahi with a stern and steady face. Ajay just kept looking at her. “Also,” added Mahi, “There was one scrap paper in the file and I have dumped it in the dustbin” and she went away.
Ajay was depressed and restless. He was highly confident that Mahi will accept his love. But, things worked out the other way. He desperately wanted to know the reason for rejecting him. But, he did not possess the guts to face her. He kept himself composed for few days.
The soft love towards Mahi grew day by day and started pricking Ajay, for having rejected. One fine day, he went up to Mahi and called her for coffee in the office pantry. Mahi initially felt uninterested, but then she made up her mind to go with him. She decided to clarify her stand, if Ajay happens to discuss about his proposal.
“Heard Mythili gonna quit the Job”, said Ajay, breaking the silence between them. He sat opposite to Mahi, kept smiling and remained composed.
“Ya. I too came to know that”, answered Mahi.
“Why suddenly?”
“Heard she is going to get married”.
“What about you?”
“What?”, exclaimed Mahi.
“No. Just asked when are you going to get married?”, said Ajay in a normal tone.
“I donno. My parents need to decide”, said Mahi. She avoided looking at Ajay.
“So, you are not gonna decide your marriage right? You gonna blindly believe and accept your parents’ decision?”
“Stop it Ajay. My parents had been providing me with best things. I get, all that I desire. Never had they said ‘No’”
“So why don’t you talk about our marriage? I mean…”
“It's enough Ajay. Look, I strongly believe in arranged marriage and prefer opting my parent’s choice rather mine”
“So you mean to say that…”, interrupted Ajay
“I just mean to say that you please don’t disturb me here after. I don’t have any opinion or liking for you. All I knew is my family and my parents”, said Mahi sternly and left the place.
Ajay looked at her leaving the place with a smile and felt a sense of victory.
