-----POOJA'S POV----
****A few years later*****
We had all gone to Divya's wedding and today was an anniversary party.
Finally, we would be meeting everyone from collage again. Those years flew by.
People are so right!! College flies by!!
After graduation, everyone got busy in their own life. It was almost impossible to get a hold of someone because of how different our schedules were.
I was an English major. I taught English abroad for a year and now I teach at the High School. Divya and Priya were both in the medical field. Hussna and Amaani were business majors. Mahek was a neurobiology major. And Arya, thanks to Divya and working with her Arya fell in love with cooking. She switched into a culinary arts school and now had her own restaurant. Which now leaves the guys, Hussain was a theater arts major, Atif was a business major and Shehry and Waqas majored in film - making.
I'm so excited to be getting to see everyone again. I wonder what it'll be like to see them again and talk and catch up when we hadn't heard each others voice in so long.
Finally, I thought as I walked inside. I saw Divya right away and went to her.
"Oh my God!! Hey, how are you??"She asked.
"I'm good, what about you?" I asked.
"I'm good! It's been so long!" She said.
"Ya, I know it has. It's been even longer not seeing you, since you were elder than us and left us all,"I said.
"But I heard you all haven't properly talked since you all graduated,"she said.
"It's true. Everyone is busy with everything after graduation, espically with work,"I said.
"Well come with me then,"she said and I followed.
She took to where the catering was happening.
"Wait here,"she said and left.
A few seconds later she came back.
"Alright, let's go,"she said.
We went to the table where everyone was sitting.
"Pooja!" They all yelled.
"Hey everyone,"I said and gave them all a hug.
"It's been forever!" Mahek said.
"I know right!"I said.
We all sat and started talking.
"Tumhara boyfriend kaha hai?" Shehry asked.
"He's not coming. He said he's really busy with the project he's working on,"I said.
"Seriously?" Atif asked.
"Yep,"I said.
"Can I borrow of you please?" Priya asked.
"I'll go,"I said and we went.
As we were walking the host announced the slow dance of Divya and her husband.
Me and Priya left to go and take care of what she needed to be done.
"There now we can go back,"she said.
We went back and she told me to sit with her so we can catch up and I did.
The announcement for other couples to join them was made.
"Abh kya?" Priya asked.
"We need more fifty more," they said.
"I'll be back,"she said to me and left.
I was watching the others. They looked so cute.
My phone went off and I picked it. It was just a text from one of my co-workers. I was replying to it when someone put their hand out.
I looked to see who it was.
"I thought you weren't coming,"I said.
"Yeah about that, suprise!" Waqas said.
"Now, may I have this dance?" He asked.
"Of course,"I said and we went to the dancefloor.
The DJ changed the song but it was still for the slow dance.
"Akhiyaan na bol ve
Dil vali khole ve
Dil vali khole ve..
Ve akhiyaan na bol ve..
Aaj jaane kaise haye
Aaj jaane kaise
Aaj jaane kaise izhaar ho gaya ae mainu
Tere naal tere naal
Pyaar ho gaya ae mainu
Tere naal tere naal.
Jagg se churaya maine
Sab se shupaya maine.
Do akhiya, ro ro akkiya
Ve saatho daahdi bhull hoyi
Laa baithe akhiyan
Aa..
Tere hi khaylaan vale
Betha renda mod te
Jhalli jehi duniyaa toh
Sare naate tod ke.
Tere hi khaylaan vale
Betha renda mod te
Jhalli jehi duniyaa toh
Sare naate tod ke
Jhalli jehi duniyaa toh
Sare naate tod ke
Kitte v nai lagda
Tere val pajjda
Rabb jaane kyun
Bekaraar ho gaya oye
Mainu tere nal tere nal
Pyar ho gaya oye mainu
Tere naal tere naal."
The DJ switched into upbeat tracks and everyone started dancing.
We danced til forever!
We all said our byes and left once the party was over.
I tried telling him that I had my own car but Waqas wouldn't listen.
"Where are we?" I asked.
"You'll see, come on,"he said taking my hand.
We went and I realized we are at the place where we went before formal.
"Pooja,"he said.
"Yeah?"I asked.
"Jab sa tumma mila hu, tumsa pyar katha hu. Tumari har ek cheez sai mujha pyar hai. Tum sa jab vi door ratha hu, toh dil ni lagtha. Tumhara pass ummar par rahana chatha hu,"he said.
He got down on one knee.
"Will you marry me?" He asked.
I could barely even talk, it took me a few seconds.
"Oh my God! Yes of course,"I said.
He put the finger.
"I love you,"I said.
"I love you so much more,"he said.
