"I know.." I whispered out and nodded my head slowly. He leaned and slowly kissed on my forehead. I closed my eyes and lean to his touch.

His phone vibrates in his pocket and he pulled away to receive the call.

"Hello.."

"Yeah..we are on our way." After saying this he hung up the call.

"It's keerti. Everyone is waiting for us at home." He said while shoving his phone inside his pocket.

I nodded my head.

"Let's go.." He whispered and interlocked our fingers again while guiding me towards the car.

*****

The whole drive for home is fill with silence but it was a comfortable one. None of us tried to break it. After sharing my worst day with Siddharth I felt light hearted like someone lifted the burden from my heart and now it is functioning batter than before.

I am in love with him.

I love this man so much that I am afraid that I will not be survive he will leave me. I turn my head towards him, his eyes are focusing on the road and his beautiful face is illuminating under the streetlights. He also turned his head and looked at me. Our gaze met for a minute before he turned back his attention on the road. I also turned back my attention and looked outside the window.

What happened with me in my high school it wasn't anyone's fault. What my cousin, her boyfriend and friends done to me because of their narrow thinking and maybe they were immature but they gave the nightmares to me in return. I don't get nightmares now but when something drastic happens to me I got nightmares but they went away after haunting me a month or two.

Siddharth is everything which every girl asked for. No matter how he was in his past life but I know one thing he respects women a lot and will not hurt anyone deliberately. I am lucky I am going to marry him.

Siddharth stops the car in our driveway but none of us make a move to leave. Maybe we both want spend few more minutes with each other, maybe we both want to steal few more minutes from time. I looked at him, his both one hand is gripping the steering wheel and one was resting on his lap. He was looking outside, lost in his own thoughts.

He is looking handsome under the fairy lights of our house and I am missing his touch, his warmth.

I unbuckled my seatbelt and slowly leaned to him. He didn't notice my presence near him because he didn't turn his face to look at me. I leaned more slowly kissed him on his left cheek. His shin is warm and after shave cheeks are little rough for my lips but they are feeling soft to me. My heart was beating fast my lips touched his skin. This is the first time I am showing the loving gesture to him. This is the first time I am kissing him. I slowly pulled back myself.

His eyebrows raised in shock when realization hit him. I spun his head to me but before he could say anything I opened the passenger door of car door and stepped outside from the car.

When I was about to enter the house I turned back and looked at him. He was still inside the car, holding a steering wheel with his right hand and grinning softly.

I chuckled softly and lowered my head when I think what I just did. I opened the door and walked inside.
