Chapter 6

Jake's Pov:

Today I am so tired. As I had to go back to my hospital, I had to wake up in the morning and after reaching back to the hospital, I had to attend continuous cases. So the day was tiring. I couldn't even look at my phone. Just after reaching the hospital in the morning I had messaged my family members about my arrival. As my duty came to an end, I thought of getting back to my quarters. So I gave a call to my bestie, Sachin, we both are working at same hospital and we both are living in the same quarters. As soon as I called him, he picked up the call and it seemed that he too was tired. Mondays are really tiring, and that is the main reason why I hate Mondays. Soon me and Sachin returned back to our quarters. After taking a quick shower I decided to make a call to my mother. After talking with her, I decided to message Shruti. When I opened whatsapp, I saw Shruti's message, "Good morning. Have a safe journey and do message me when you reach there". "Hey did you reach?" Shit I forgot to check her message, I don't know what to say, these messages made me so happy, I instantly messaged her, "Hi, sorry couldn't message you, I was caught up with work, so couldn't reply to your message, I reached safely.", "How was your day?". It seemed that she was offline. So I looked her whatsapp dp. As I was staring at her dp, Sachin came and asked me the details about yesterday's meeting. I had told him shortly about the meeting yesterday itself. So I told him about every single thing that had happened yesterday. And he was happy for me. He asked me to show Shruti's photo, I showed him the picture that my siblings had clicked yesterday.

"Man you are so damn lucky to get her in your life, She really looks so pretty", Sachin told me. And what he told me was true, I was really lucky to get her in my life. She is beautiful, both inside and outside. In these days its so hard to find a girl who genuinely speaks about her past relations. I was really stunned to hear her saying about her past, its not that she told me the full story, but I liked the way she told me that. I mean she could have hided it from me, but she didn't do that, instead she decided to be true to me. And that quality impressed me. I don't have any problem with her past, because now a days its really hard to find a girl or boy who doesn't have any relations. Even I had a relation when I was in the grade twelve. So yeah that doesn't matter to me as long as it stays as a past. Currently I am watching a movie with Sachin, "Jalebi", its an old movie, but we both love it so we thought of watching it. Its tells about everlasting love. I suggest all of you to watch that movie.

As we were watching the movie, my phone beeped, notifying me about the arrival of some messages, hoping that it would be the message from Shruti, I immediately opened my whatsapp, and guess what, it was her message. She told me that she had just arrived from college, and she had a tiring day. And then we talked for some time and then I decided to take a nap, as Sachin was ordering the food. When the food had arrived, Sachin called me to have my dinner. After having dinner my siblings video called me. It seems that Shruti had got along with my siblings, the only thing that I heard from my siblings is about Shruti, like how sweet she was to call and ask them about their day and to enquire about each and everything. They talked to me about her as if there haven't anything happened in this world. Anyway I was happy ,because this was what I wanted. My wife being friendly with my family. But truth to be told I never thought that they will get along with each other this fast. My parents were so happy that Shruti had called them and she talked to them about her day and also she enquired them about their day and their health.

Today I feel that my wishes are being fulfilled. I always wished to have a wife, who will take care my family as her own, who will love to stay at my home rather than in a separate home, who will be happy to have my siblings by her side, who will be a good daughter to my parents, a good sister to my siblings and a good aunt to my nieces and nephews. And today I see all these in Shruti. Shruti is actually a bold girl, she is a straight-forward girl, who will not tell anything to please others. Last Sunday when we were asked to talk to each other the very first thing that she had told me is that, " Jake, I don't know whether we will get married or not, but if we are going to get married then I assure you that you will never regret about it. I will always treat your family as my own and there will not be any division as my family and your family, both families will be having equal importance in my life, I will try my best to be a good daughter, sister, aunt, friend and a wife. I will never separate you from your family. I will give you, your personal space. I have always wished of being married off to a joint family, I love to be around people. Its just that, I want you to support my decisions, only if they are right, I want you to respect my feelings, respect and love my family and to be a good son and a brother. " Each and every word that Shruti spoke on that day was the same thing that I had always wished to listen from my wife on some day or the other. And when I heard those things from her, I was stunned. At that moment itself I liked her and decided to proceed with the marriage if she have no problem in marrying me.

Anyway now I am hundred percent sure that, my decision was correct. Later after talking to Shruti, I decided to call it a day, because I was feeling so sleepy, and Sachin had already slept after having dinner. After praying to God to fulfill my wishes and also after thanking God for showering lots of blessing upon me and my family, I went into deep slumber.
