I like you very much.

You are

Like the golden fish in the water bowl,

Like the first rain after summer, 

Like the kurunji flower that blossoms after 12 years,

Like the rangoli decorated on the floor,

Like the silver ring on my finger, always near and dear.

Priya reread this message 'n' number of times. She couldn't stop missing him. He mesmerized her with his simple talks. He spoke about the universe, narrated tales from epics, described his likes and dislikes without any filters.

She could'nt believe her decison of accepting the person whom she met two weeks ago due to her parents compulsion.

He is a rider. Go and meet him, her father said one last time to Priya tickling her interest. Though his repeated requests annoyed her, she agreed reluctantly.

Tell him to meet me at 4 pm, Chetpet park, Priya confirmed.

His name is Karthick! and number is ....

......

Okay.

That evening the white clouds all of the sudden turned black and it started pouring like the dogs and cats.

She parked her car and dialled his number.

Hello, Karthick!

Priya I am inside the park. I was waiting for you and it started raining. May I know where you're?

I am in the car parking. Shall I come inside?, she asked, her teeth shivering in cold.

No, I will come in few minutes, he replied back politely.

Okay!

He came to her door drenched from top to bottom. 

Come inside, Priya said opening the door for him. She switched off the AC and gave him some tissues to wipe.

I am sorry, Priya began.

No problem, I love rain and I am completely fine, he replied back.

They both remained silent.

Once the rain stopped, they got down and walked around the park. The ducks were happily swimming and the whole place looked terrific.

"So what else you like?", Priya asked breaking the silence.

"I came here to know about you", he winked.

"He is one step ahead than me and he is reading my mind", she thought to herself. 

"Maybe this is called as telepathy", he

smirked.

They both didn't talk much but it was evident that they both liked each other. Their eyes met very often and they smiled looking at each other crazily. Their parent's agreed merrily and the engagement was scheduled post summer. From then on both of them spent over time through text messages, video calls and and late night dinner plus long drives.

I am going to Kerala tomorrow, Priya texted two week prior thier engagement. 

Its one of my favorite places in India and I wish I come with you, he replied back.

You're most welcome, she replied back with two smileys.

"We go in bike once we are married, now you go", he convinced her.

The train got delayed by six hours and they both spoke on the phone about his first ride to Kerala. He very much wanted to accompany her but he promised to be with her virtually.
