Mahi's POVMy dad was angry with Ron. I didn't want him to scold or beat Ron. I had to stop him, I could not let Dad hurt him.I opened the door and went in." Dad, please don't say anything to him, I love him. Or I will not talk to you. " I said and tears started flowing from my eyes. He closed his eyes and hugged me." I won't, don't cry, baby. " He said hugging me." Promise?" I asked." Yes! " He said." And you will let me marry him?" I asked looking at him hoping that he would agree to it as well." You are only 12, too young to think about all that. We will talk about it after 10-12 years. I can't think of you getting married to anyone for now. I can't live without you, baby. " He hugged me very tightly." You are not angry with him? " I was so worried about Ron after I heard my dad's views about him." No, beta, he saved your life, we can't be angry with him. " Mom assured me." But Dad was angry with him, I heard everything. " I said crying." Oh, you know how much he lo
Mahi's POVMy heart already belonged to him but my mind, the more rational organ of my body was nagging me constantly.Would he ever see me as more than a young girl, the sister of his close friend? Would he recognize the depth of my love, hidden beneath my shy smiles and stolen glances?Uncertainty gnawed me, but I remained steadfast, my heart was holding onto the hope that one day, my hero would come to realize the love that burned brightly within me.I started gathering information about him in bits and pieces and within no time, I knew everything about his likes and dislikes, his favorite dishes, color, movie, actor, singer, player, game, car, holiday destination... Everything. I was going crazy about him and he was oblivious of me.He was in the last year of the school and as he was extremely good-looking, tall, fair, and handsome, he was very popular (along with Shaurya and Viren) and already the crush of many girls.It was a challenging and emotionally charged period, one that
Mahi's POVMany girls in my class were also having a crush on Bhai and all his friends as they all were good-looking. Some of the girls became my friends as they wanted to be friends with Bhai, Ron, and others.Some girls hated me for the same reason, all seven of them were friendly with me and the girls were jealous of me.Many boys in my class and some seniors tried to show interest in me, but I denied all the proposals of friendship as I just loved him.Some even tried to follow me or were more adamant and wanted to pursue me, but somehow, they all backed out very easily, maybe they saw my love for him or were scared of my overprotective brothers.If everyone could see that I loved him, why could not he see it?? I wanted to tell him my feelings, he needed to know. But how??I baked a small cake for him and went to his home to give it to him. But saw his neighbor flirting with him. He smiled at me as soon as he felt my presence." Hey, Mahi!! How are you ?"" I am good, I made a cak
Mahi's POVMy friend knew about my feelings and when she saw that I was extremely upset and was on the verge of crying, she asked me everything but I could not repeat what I saw. I could not even say those words.But my friend was very persuasive and I knew she would not leave me alone, I finally told her everything.She tried to make me understand that he was in twelfth standard, and was almost eighteen years old, while I was just thirteen. He would prefer the girls who were almost his age as he may want to kiss them. She suggested that I should accept the friendship of one of the boys who were interested in me. But my mind was very stubborn.How could he kiss other girls? If he wanted to kiss someone why couldn't he think of me in that way?I got a bit depressed after that as all my efforts had gone wasted. Maybe I was not good enough for him to think of me as a girl, he could date. That's why he never acknowledged my feelings. I started getting quieter and introvert.Everyone wa
Mahi's POVHe was so shocked that his eyes became the size of tennis balls and his jaw touched the floor." WHAT?? No!! " He almost yelled." Why? " " Are you out of your mind? " He asked looking away." Yes!! I am, and I want to kiss you because I know that you are older and want to kiss girls, so kiss me instead. I want to learn to kiss. " I said boldly though I was feeling shy, but I was desperate to show him that I was in love with him." No, Mahi!! " He was so shocked that he didn't know what to say." Why not? " I asked." I don't want to. I can't. You are too young and... Don't talk to me like that, please. " He said and pulled his hand out of mine and turned to go. I came to stand in front of him." But I love you. " I said and he was rooted to the place." What?? No!! It's not love. Just a crush maybe or infatuation. " He said, avoiding looking at me and looking around instead." How do you know?? You don't know anything about me. I love you since that day you saved me
Mahi's POVPresent time...I woke up to a stunning morning, went out to the balcony, and found that sunlight was painting the balcony with warmth, and instantly, my spirits lifted. The anticipation of my first day in the professional world filled me with excitement.After getting ready, I descended the stairs to find my mom, dad, and both my brothers eagerly waiting for me. Their faces beamed with pride and joy, congratulating me on this significant milestone." Oh my Doll, you've grown up, and today marks the first day of your professional journey. We all wish you good luck," my dad said with a heartfelt smile.My family showered me with thoughtful gifts—a new car from Mom and Dad, a stylish pearl and diamond pendant set from Manik Bhai, and a brand-new MacBook from Mihir. Their love and pampering always made me feel like a cherished princess. I was overwhelmed with emotion and thanked the heavens for blessing me with such a loving family."Wow!

Mahi's POV" Come on, Mahi, say something!! Please listen to me, we both know that there's something between us. Please don't deny that you had a big crush on me and I have also developed some feelings for you." He said." Look, it doesn't matter, how I recognize it, I just know it was you, that's all," I said, getting annoyed." By the way thank you. "" Thankyou?? Why?? That I didn't throw your bouquet and chocolates on your face? "" No! For giving me immense pleasure. " He smiled." What nonsense! What are you talking about? " I asked." You just called me Ron. "" No! I didn't. "" You did! "" No way! "" You did, princess, and I heard and loved it just like old times. " He winked. " Just shut up and accept that you sent them. "" Fine, it was me. But anything related to you, matters to me, tell me how you know my writing like the back of your hand. " He held my shoulders and there was only a space of a few inches between us." Leave me!! Yes, I had that stupid crush on y

The demand for different dress materials and decor materials is increasing, worldwide, we should use the talents of the weavers from all states, why should we leave even some states? I think we should start finding the best weavers and export the home decor materials as well. "" What is the need, Ron?
