A Proposal Without ‘I Love You'



Note: penned down verbatim from my dairy as on February 7th 2011.

I and Amit (name changed) were talking on the terrace, as the moon is raising its horizons.
“so how did your proposal go?” he asked me casually looking at a girl in the neighboring house
But i was dumb struck, as I never told anyone of this..
“how did u come to know of it??” I asked in a bit of shock, unable to take my eyes off him
“Harsha , I am your best friend, I can read through your heart,
U may conceal your feeling within your eyes and your spoken words , but you cant hide in your articles” said Amit grinning at me.
He paused for a moment and continued again..
“so did u propose to her???” he said looking straight into my eyes..
“yes” i said plainly
“did u say her ‘I LOVE YOU’ ??” he spontaneously shot back
“no, she is not worth to say that !!” I said looking at the stars and the moon.
“what the hell, can u explain me all this crap???” he shouted at me
I took a deep breath..
“ I Love You, ‘is it a promise?’ or ‘is it a feeling?’ or ‘is it an answer’
   For me its just 8 letters , 3 words which fail to explain my deep rooted feelings.
   Yes, what u heard is right, it fails to explain my feelings”
I stood up on my feet, kept my hand over my heart and
“how does it feel, when some one enters your heart and makes it better place..
 How does it feel, when someone does a lifetime magic to you..
 How does it feel, when you cant explain her how much you want her...
 These feelings cant be told in just 8 letters...!!!”
As I said those my voice began to stammer, he reached out to me , tapped my shoulder and said “cool down!!!”
“I want to grow old with her
  I want to enjoy the evening walk with her on the beach
 I want to fight with her for a chocolate
 I want the tiny bits of happiness
 I want her to scold me
 I want her to beat me for my mischief
 I want her to give me a ride on her scooty, in between the ride i want to tickle her
 Can 3 words explain all these Amit???”
“Harsha , you are getting emotional” said Amit.
“Amit,
  I want to have the freshness of her breath in my nostrils.
  I want to sit in the open along with her, her right hand in my left hand, and watch the full                           moon.
  How can i explain, in those 3 words that, how my heart deceived me, by staying within me but beating for her
  I want to kiss her on her forehead, then the to breathe in the aroma of her kumkum sticking on my lips after i kiss her...can anything in the world explain that feeling
  When she lays her head over my chest, i will rest my head over hers, then her oil gently touching my cheek, and the closeness at that moment...can anything explain that
When we walk together side by side on the beach, even the beach is soo envious of our love, that it carefully washes away our footprints into its heart..
Can this love be explained in just those 8 letters, 3 words ‘I LOVE YOU’ ????
Tell Amit..tell??? “

he took my mobile at once and was doing something..

“what are you doing??” i asked
“i want to see that lucky girl...” he said
“her pic wont be in the mobile...” i said smiling
“why??” he shouted in vain
“I have her in my eyes..in every thought..in every breath..in every wish..in every dream..in every passing second, should I again keep her in my mobile??” I asked softly
“Harsha u are always a never ending mystery to me,but she is damn lucky to have you
This is the first time I heard of A PROPOSAL WITHOUT ‘I LOVE YOU’ “
DEDICATED TO MY LUCKY...., MY SWEETEST CUTEST BARBIE I EVER HAD..THIS IS TO YOU ASHWINI...
