“She was not crying, Neil. That was happiness.” 

They both kept laughing. Neil stopped his laugh and asked

“Why didn’t you talk to her?” 

“Not like this. I’ve plans.” Ryan smiled.  

Kathleen reached her home. She sat on sofa smiling and laughing. She kept wiping her tears but they didn’t stop rolling down. 

Within few minutes, Nina arrived shouting “Kathleen!” 

Kathleen stood from there and ran to Nina. They both hugged and stood still for a moment. Then Nina withdrew the hug. 

“I’m so happy for you, Kat.” Nina said smiling. 

“Finally!” Kathleen put her hands on her  face. 

“Did you tell this to your parents?” 

“Not yet.” 

Nina hugged her and kissed her cheek. 

“Call your parents.” She said and Kathleen nodded. 

Kathleen called her father and spoke “Dad!” 

“Kat! How is everything going there?” 

Hearing him, she started crying. Nina touched her shoulder and kept consoling her. 

“Kat! Kat! What happened? Is everything fine?” Her father scared. 

“Dad! My story was accepted and will be published soon.” 

There was an utter silence from her father’s side. 

“Dad?” 

“Kat! I’m so proud of you. Finally you achieved.” 

“Thanks dad.” 

“Dad! I want to talk to mom.” 

Kathleen heard her dad shouting her mom’s name. She smiled and eagerly waited to hear her mother’s voice. 

“Congratulations.” Kathleen heard her mother’s voice and she smiled. 

“Mom!” Kathleen spoke but she got response from her dad. 

“Kat! She is still angry at you but did you hear she congratulate you.” 

“Yes dad! I’m so happy.” Kathleen said smiling. 

They talked for few minutes and she cut the call.”

“Kitty-Kat it’s time to celebrate. Your book is gonna publish soon.” 

Kathleen became silent and started thinking about the stranger. 

“Kat! What are you thinking?” 

“Nina! It’s all because of him.” Kathleen said looking at Nina. 

“What?” 

“The stranger. Nina I want to meet him.” 

“But how? We don’t even know who he is.” 

Saying that she started drinking water. 

“I don’t know. It’s all because of him. Because of him I realized everything. He filled hope and confidence in me. It’s because of him I’m going to be an author. I owe him. And... I think I love him.” 

Nina spilled the water from her mouth when she heard the sentence from her.

“What? Kat is this you? You love him? You always say love and that other things are waste of time. I never heard you saying anything like this in my entire life. All of a sudden you are saying that you love him. I’m gonna faint now.”

“Even I didn’t expect this. I don’t even know when I fell for him or for his letters. With every letter he sent, my affection on him increased. I don’t know anything about him but all I want is him to be my side, always.” 

“But you didn’t even know him or see him? What if he is not much handsome? What if he doesn’t match to a girl’s expectation?” 

“I don’t care about any of them. All I need is him holding my hand, leading me into the light forever. But the question is does he love me?” 

“Double celebration. I’m so, so, so  excited. The thing that I don’t understand is why doesn’t he reveal himself?” Nina questioned. 

While they were discussing, they heard the doorbell sound. Kathleen strolled to the door and opened it. She saw an envelope and she immediately ran outside. She saw a black Audi leaving the street. She took the envelope and went inside. 

Dear Kathleen, 

You have achieved what most said was impossible. My heartiest congratulations for your success. I am writing this letter to ask you to meet me at the ‘Black beans’ cafe.

I want to congratulate you in person. I will be glad with your presence there. I will be waiting for you at 9.30 A.M. 

Looking forward to meeting you.

With love,

Xxxx.

Kathleen and Nina stood in shock after reading the letter. 

“Triple celebration.” Nina shouted. 

Kathleen couldn’t stop smiling as she is going to meet her stranger. 

“I’m going to meet him.” Kathleen jumped in excitement with the letter in her hand. “I love today. This is the most memorable day in my entire life.” 

Both the girls kept laughing excitedly. They sat on the sofa and started talking about the stranger, future and many things. 

***********
“She is going to see me, tomorrow.” Ryan said looking at Neil, who was driving the black Audi. 

“What’s the plan?” Neil asked. 

“I’m going to meet her. I’ll take her to the place where I arrange surprise for her.” 

“So are you going to tell her everything about you?” 

“I can’t tell her about me looking into her eyes. But I’ll tell her everything.” 

“I wish she accepts you.” 

Then they reached their mansion.
