DJ and Ruhi sat facing each other on the dinner table aboard the luxurious cruise ship.....The gentle sway of the ship and the soft glow of the candles created a romantic ambiance that was hard to resist....

As they sat down to enjoy their dinner, she couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation....

She was a bit hesitant at first, partly because she was wearing the short red dress that he gifted her....She had never been one to draw attention to herself, and the thought of being the center of attention in such a stunning dress made her feel a bit self-conscious.....

The cruise staff served their dinner with precision and grace, ensuring that every detail was perfect.....The plates were filled with delicious food, and the wine flowed freely as they enjoyed each other's company.....

The sound of the sea gently lapping against the sides of the ship provided a soothing background to their conversation, and for a moment, they were lost in their own little world.....

Ruhi : DJ achanak yeh sab kyu....koi toh reason hai....

DJ : hai na...nayi shuruwat karni hai toh acchi memories ke sath ki jaaye....

He stood up and went towards her and sat on his knees....

Ruhi : DJ yeh aap....

He kept his finger on her lips....

DJ : shh... just listen to me....ruhi I know jo kuch bhi hua uski wajah se tum mujh par trust nahi kar paa rahi ho.... lekin please give me a chance, chance to prove myself.... I know maine tumhe trust karne ki koi wajah nahi di hai par please just one chance....and I promise I'll not let you down....ruhi I really wanted to start afresh with you please.....

She had tears in her eyes listening to him....

Ruhi : I trust you DJ.......DJ meri life humesha bohot hi conserve rahi hai....na zyada dost na relatives....aapse shaadi ke baad toh family ka asli matlab samjha maine....aur na main aapko khona chahti hu na humari family ko.....yeh sab aisa hi rahega na humesha....

DJ : ofcourse.... I promise....yeh sab ab humesha aisa hi rahega....

She hugged him tightly....

He smiled wrapping his arms around her securely....!!!!

As they were in the hug, a beautiful romantic song began playing in the background.....

DJ : will you dance with me...??

She nodded....

Their bodies moved in perfect harmony to the music, swaying gently to the rhythm of the song.....

DJ's hand rested on Ruhi's waist, pulling her close to him, while her hand rested on his shoulder, feeling the steady beat of his heart beneath her touch.....

Their remaining hands were entwined with each other, creating a strong and unbreakable bond between them.....

The dance seemed to last an eternity, yet also passed in the blink of an eye.....

As the song came to an end, he pulled her close to him, pressing a sweet kiss to her forehead.....

-----------------------------------------

It was early morning on the cruise ship, and DJ slowly opened his eyes to the warm rays of the sun streaming in through the window.....As he blinked away the remnants of sleep, he felt a soft weight against his chest and looked down to see Ruhi sleeping peacefully in his arms.....

DJ couldn't help but smile as he watched Ruhi sleep, her breaths coming out in soft, gentle rhythms....Her hair, a tangled mess of curls, splayed across the pillow and a few strands had fallen across her face....

Gently reaching out, he pushed the strands aside, tucking them behind her ear with utmost care....

He couldn't help but marvel at the beauty of his wife, even in the simplicity of her sleeping form....Her delicate features, the way her lips curved ever so slightly in a peaceful smile, it was moments like these that he cherished the most.....

She slowly opened her eyes and a smile spread across her face as she saw herself nestled in his arms.....

Ruhi : Good morning....

she murmured, her voice still heavy with sleep.....

DJ : Good morning......

he replied, pressing a kiss to her forehead....

DJ : We should get ready soon, we'll be reaching the port shortly.....We need to leave for home....

Ruhi nodded, reluctantly untangling herself from DJ's embrace....

Once they were both dressed and ready, he took her hand in his as they made their way to the deck of the ship....

The salty sea breeze whipped through their hair, the sun shining brightly in the sky as they disembarked at the port.....A driver was waiting for them with a car....they sat inside and drove away.....

She glanced over at him, a knowing smile on her face as she reached for his hand, intertwining their fingers together.....

Ruhi : Thank you for this trip, DJ.....

she said softly.....

He nodded smiling....!!!!
