It's been more than three years since Hira left his beloved county India, in order to become successful & independent, so that he could ask Geet's hand from her parents.
But now it seems a little difficult to get his love, due to the corona pandemic.
As always today morning too Hira and Geet were having conversation over whatsapp.
She was upset with him because Hira has been promising Geet for last one year, that he would come back to India and ask her hand from her parents.
Geet is waiting for him desperately as Hira has been waiting for the situation to get normal.
Last year in march he was suppose to leave for India, everything was ready he had booked airway tickets and completed shopping, packed up the suite cases, bags and all.
Hira was so excited to see his, family and his loved ones.
But unfortunately meantime airlines were shutdown and all of sudden the condition with him got changed.
Hira became so desperate, disappointed along with his loved once because of the Coronavirus was spreading rapidly everywhere across the world.
All kind of transportation got stuck and people were stranded in many countries.
Hira was also one of them. Hira was unable to do anything except missing his family and his love (Geet).
Actually hardly Geet had convinced her parents for Hira.
Geet told her parents directly that she would never get married with someone else except Hira.
In fact her father and brother initially were against Geet's relationship with Hira, when Hira was doing nothing just had completed his degree and was staying at home.
They had been thinking that Hira was dull and they kept on taunting Geet for Hira's unemployment. Then Hira decided to go abroad.
He wanted to show them that he was not dull or idle. Therefore Hira went Dubai and started working and earning.
Afterward they stopped taunting Geet and considering Hira as lazy and reckless.
Now they are agree to get their daughter married with Hira and finally they want Hira to go to them and ask their daughter's hand once.
But problem was that Geet's side everybody in her family is convinced for their relationship, but Hira side Hira's family didn't want Hira to form relationship with Geet's family since Hira's family specially his father doesn't like Geet's father.
And similarly her father doesn't like Hira's father too.
But it was not a big deal for Hira to persuade his father.
Actually Geet's father and Hira's father were so closed and good friends since their childhood.
Their families were so closed to each other long ago.
They used to visit each other homes on many occasions, festivals.
That time Hira and Geet used to be kids.
Once Geet's family had come at Hira's home and they stayed for many days with them over there.
That time Hira was almost 10 years old and Geet was 9 years old.
They were playing Marriage, Geet became queen and Hira became King then they both got married but it was just a game.
That time both were studying in the same school.
They would sit together, eat together, go to school together, come back together, even their tuition teacher was same.
Geet's home was around 1000 meters away from Hira's home in another colony in the same city.
They studied together upto HSSC in same college.
In fact they came to know about their love finally, when they were in class 10th.
Hira may have been 15 and Geet 14 years old.
Once Hira got seek and couldn't go to school for 4_5 days. After getting well he left for school and arrived into the classroom.
As soon as Geet saw him she ran towards him quickly as if she had become crazy seeing Hira after many days, and clung him.
Her tears began to roll down from her big naive eyes, asking him "why were you not coming school, I kept on waiting for you every day.
It was so tough to spend time in the classroom without you".
Hira could hear her achy voice he was just smiling and patting on her shoulder trying to make her calm.
Geet had grabbed his waste tightly in excitement.
Actually she got emotional seeing Hira after many days.
She had forgotten that they were in the classroom .
She just kept on weeping. It kept on going for almost a minute.
Suddenly she realised that many other classmates also were present in the classroom .
They were standing surrounding them staring Hira and Geet and smiling too.
There was a kind of strange silence in the classroom.
Noticing them immediately she left Hira's waist.
They both were feeling embarrassment for a while looking at their classmates.
Quickly leaving him, Geet stood a meter away from Hira.
Now Geet was calm her gaze was downward and wet too.
She was blushing the moment Hira looked at her.
Now everybody in the classroom was smiling to know that there was something being cooked between them.
Whenever they both came close or pass by each other their classmates would notice and tease them.
This is how they both would feel a little embarrassment.
From that day they started sitting separately.
They changed their seats in the classroom but kept on looking at each other from the distance.
The moment she used to be engaged with the books or something else Hira would stare her.
As soon as she looked at him Hira turned his eyesight to somewhere else.
Geet also would do the same when Hira looked at her she turned her eyesight somewhere else pretending as if she was looking at something else.
They both were never shy this much before that day.
They would hesitate to talk even about the topics of their study.
Whenever they came in front of each other they got shy ,bemused ,speechless.
Finally that day got passed .
Hira went back to his home.
Geet went to her home too.
Reaching at home Hira started thinking what had happened to her ? Why was she behaving like that ? Hira was a little restless.
Next day Hira left for school as always he did wait for Geet on the way but she didn't come.
Later on, after waiting for a long time he began to walke towards the school having long face thinking "why she has not come school"!.
Anyway Hira reached in the school as soon as he entered into the classroom he saw Geet who was already present in the classroom sitting on her yesterday's seat.
Seeing her Hira got bloomed within his heart.
Everybody was looking at Hira then at Geet.
They both were blushing seeing each other.
However classes started as per the routine.
It was last period of that day in the school.
Geet came to Hira secretly and threw a folded pepar over him, then ran back to her seat.
Hira was curious and excited also to see "what is the matter in it?", Quickly he picked up it and unfolded the paper it was written in bold large font that, "I LOVE U MY HIROO and I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT YOU".
In the bottom of the paper it was written in small font "your beloved Geet".
