She stood in surprise when the shadow shifted and "he" approached her...
She saw his face who had a smile on his lips and his hands forwarding another rose to her...
She took that rose but the real feel of soft rose petals didn't arise because it was a fake rose unlike those 10 real ones...
But her eyes glittered as his words followed next second...
"I will love you till this last rose dies."
She went speechless that moment... he waited for her reaction...
She took a deep breath and spoke holding his hands.
Sharon- I love you so much Swayam!!
His smile broadened... Swayam kissed her hands and whispered..
Swayam- Happy 4th Marriage Anniversary Shar!
And the lights turned ON. (Arrangements were already done by Swayam)
The room was no special other than those red white balloons on the floor.
Sharon- Yes..Y..Happy 4 years married journey of US...
Her eyes gave up as drops of tears rolled down when he took her in a hug...
She gripped her hands around him tightly and also not leaving those roses anytime...
Sharon- Swayammm... I missed you so much... I love you!!!!
Swayam- Love you too Shar...And see I am here on our day...
Sharon- Yeah yeah!!!
Swayam smiled and caressed her back, her head lovingly... and she stopped her weeping in few seconds...
Facing each other.
Sharon- Thankyou...all the 4 gifts... *sniff* Awesome...
Swayam- Arey not now, still one gift is pending...my coming was not the 4th!!
Sharon- Sachhi?? And tumne puri preparations ke saath mere liye gifts bheje but I could do nothing..just...
He lightly lifted her chin up, when she hung her face down, looked deep into her orbs and kissed her lips lightly.
Swayam- I need nothing except your happiness baby...
She lightly nodded and again hugged him...

All this while, in room it was other surprise...
When Sharon was with Swayam, here Simmi got a surprise when Nilesh got inside the room...
Simmi was roaming in the room when instantly Nilesh sat on his knees infront of her.
Simmi- TUMMM...
The surprise was all happy happy as Nilesh nodded and gave her a bouquet of white orchids.
Simmi smiled within tears and after accepting that immediately hugged him...
Nilesh- Simmmiii..
Simmi- Aah... I love you!!! What a surprise!!!!
Nilesh- I love you too... bohot miss kar raha tha...
Simmi- OMG!!
They broke the hug.
Simmi- I can't say.. Wow..
And she kissed his cheeks.
They both were happy enough that the newly couple had to stay away from each other like days but now both together. And moreover the wife got a great surprise from her husband, what can get better!

SwaRon came inside hand in hand and saw NiMmi sitting on the Sofa itself.
Simmi- Hey.. Wish you a very happy marriage anniversary Swayam Sharon.
SwaRon- Thanks Simmi.
Nilesh- Dono ko mast wali happy wishes for completion of 4 years of Shaadi.
They chuckled and all shared hugs from each other.
Simmi- Bilkul bhi idea nahi tha hum dono ko...
Sharon- Master plan tha pura...
Swayam- Haan... plan to tha...and yeah successful raha... time pe sab hua.
Nilesh- Haan yaar! Bas tension tha ki kuch gadbad na ho jaye.
Simmi- Ab itne dil se karoge to success kyun nahi hota plan..
SwaNil smiled.
Swayam- Where's my Angel?
Sharon- Ofcourse so rahi hai woh.
Swayam- Ohh yeah.
Sharon- By the way, are you both hungry???
Swayam- No but sleepy actually.
And Nilesh yawned making everyone giggle.
Another room was arranged and Nilesh n Simmi shifted to that because already Saamia was sleeping in 1st.
Swayam saw his Sammy having a peaceful sleep.
He bent near her forehead and pecked it..
Sharon kept her hands on his shoulder and he looked back.
Sharon- Tumhe to neend aa rahi thi na??
Swayam- Not actually. Umm... mein lawn mein hun... tum aaogi?
Sharon- Tum jao, I'll come in a minute.
Swayam gave a nod and left.
He was just thinking about family when Sharon called his name.
Sharon- Swayam...
Swayam*walks towards her*- Yeh kya hai haath mein??
Sharon- 1st gift for you!
Swayam*taking that*- Scrapbook...
Sharon- Hmm... now read...
Both sat on the 3 stair staircase.
He read the title...
"Cherish what lived"
The scrapbook was made by Sharon which included each and every moment's detail and photo spent by them with family or relatives or friends ever.
It started from the College time... SwaRon dance on "Kal Ho Na Ho" pic with the date and few lines.
Swayam- Humara first ever dance...
Sharon nodded.
It was followed by the group dance...
The whole College special fun, masti was captured and beautifully written by Sharon in this book...
It had a picture of the "Snow Globe" which Swayam had given to her in College time when she was going to London.
Swayam looked at Sharon seeing the next picture which was of their duet after the fortunate Confession, unknowingly had happened.
Sharon- Ab aise kya dekh rahe ho? Aage bohot kuch hai.
Swayam*kissing her cheek*- My love!
Description of their Engagement was special like others.
Sharon held his palm which was caressing that photo.
Next was the Holi festive pic and before this Sharon had mention about her self confession when he was in not in India for 6 months.
Swayam- Mein so gaya tha!!!
Sharon chuckled with Swayam.
Then family pics took the place and some light hearted moments the pages got filled with.
1-2 pages after, Sharon had written about the day of their Marriage.
With heart touching snaps of them, they with family n friends were stuck with one liners too.
"Destiny connects Love" was the line which made Swayam's eyes go watery.
Many moments including the Love Confession in the Academy by Sharon was scribbled with utter love.
Sharon just rested her head on his shoulder...
Reading about the time of Maanvi's marriage, the cute moments spent with Sara made Swayam smile wide.
Some snaps of them in Manali spending their honeymoon, the short lines...all was refreshing for Swayam to go through them once again with a shy emotion and Sharon with her blush...
One special description was of when the news hit their ears that their home would blossom all day as the family would soon have a beautiful flower who was meant to spread the sweet, adorable fragrance till eternity.
"The walls of the house are chirping, hearing the soft voice of the tiny bird which stepped out into the world after living safely in a shell for a period of time. That bird makes the home sing with her humming..."
These words were written just beside the photo of Saamia taken just after her birth...
Swayam- Shar...awestruck I..am..
Sharon smiled and squeezed his arms.
The scrapbook continued with Saamia's first steps to her first words... her first bite of food to first laugh.
Every occasion was mentioned in that book...
Sharon made Swayam look at her when she saw a drop fall on their (SwaRon) photo on the last page.
Sharon- Swayu? Arey..
Swayam*letting tears flow*- You made this and all the moments turned more special... Aise to we don't sit and remember all but this scrapbook...
She kept the book aside and wiped his tears gently.
Sharon- I didn't knew tum itne emotional ho jaoge yeh dekh kar...
Swayam let out a light chuckle.
Sharon shifted closer to Swayam...
He gave a smile and both of them stared at the sky.
The bluish black sky was covered with bright light stars which were twinkling at their own time...
Swayam- 4 years...
Sharon- We have seen so many ups n downs in our life in these years...
Swayam- Hmm... but everytime one name, one presence made us stay strong and still that person makes us go positive..
Sharon- We've been blessed to have her... Our Saamia.
Swayam- My Angel ka name only means blessing.
And then, they kept gazing at the stars with a kind of silence surrounding them...
They clung close to each other when cool breeze waved itself over their faces...
Till time even they didn't realise, sat at that place feeling the warmth of one another's love under the sheet of utter brightness spread because of the stars.
***
The dark sky cleared as the sunlight beamed over it slowly...
The 5 were sleeping till the irritating alarm broke the sleep of the ladies first.
Sharon narrowed her eyes and a second later opened them fully...
Sharon thought to wake Swayam up but the fact they had spent their time under twinkles till 2am approx, she let him sleep some more minutes.
She freshened up and came out to see Simmi making Coffee.
Sharon- Tu kab uthi?
Simmi*turning back*- 10min before... Have Coffee...
Sharon smiled and had her cup.
Sharon- Aaj nahi jaana yaar.
Simmi- Aww... mat jaa phir...
Sharon- No re. 3rd last day hai but ya won't take extra classes for sure!
Simmi- Okay then. As you wish babes.
Sharon kept the cup in the sink and just turned to bang into Swayam.
Sharon- Ou...v..
Simmi hurriedly looked at her who had her hands holding Swayam shirt and those hands grabbed by him.
Sharon*glare*- Yeh kya...Agar cup hota haath mein to???
Swayam- Kya!???!! Meine kuch nahi kiya..Huh.. Kya kuch bhi...
Simmi- Guys!!! Blaming session later, okay?
SwaRon nodded like Saamia would do after getting a scolding.
Sharon- By the way kuch chahiye kya tumhe??
Swayam- Angel ko uthao...
Sharon- Huh? Achanak?? Woh uth jayegi thodi der mein.
Simmi- Sorry to interrupt but tumlog weird kyun behave kar rahe ho???
And SwaRon broke out into a fist of laughter making Simmi go more confuse.
Swayam- Actually aaj Anniversary hai so thought thoda different kuch ho jaye. Shar started, I thought to continue...
Sharon*wink*- Twist..
Simmi- Phew! Good actors!! I thought ki fir kuch argument.
Sharon nodded a no.
Sharon- Understandingg hubby mera!
And he pecked her cheeks quickly making Simmi go AWW!
Suddenly, they heard a scream...happy scream!
Swayam- Aah...my Angel got her gift!!
Sharon- Go...jaldi..
***
Saamia was smiling holding a fluffy cream teddy bear which she found just beside her when she woke up.
Swayam secretly went behind her and tickled her to which Saamia giggled and looked back.
Saamia- Yaaayyy Dadddyyy!!!!
Swayam- My Angel!!!!
And they hugged tightly...Swayam lovingly kissed her head, hairs and kept rubbing his hands over her back.
Saamia remained in his arms...even she craved for her Daddy badly.
Swayam- Yaad hai, Daddy ne Angel se promise kiya tha gift denge aur Angel ke paas aayenge?
Saamia- Haan...aul (Aur) aaj Daddy Angel paash.
Swayam smiled as she pecked his cheeks.
Sharon- Swayam... Listen.
Swayam- Hmm..say?
Sharon- 2nd gift nahi chahiye kya???
Swayam- Seriously? Give give my wifey.
She asked him to close his eyes and then gave the gift in a different style.
She kept something on his head but properly. Then moved to his neck and put some cloth around it. Next she circled something around his wrist and lastly got something inside his jeans pocket.
All the time he had his eyes closed and next she ordered him to see that gift.
He had a wide grin on his face getting that 4 themed gift... A white Nike Cap, A blue black muffler, A smart watch, n A brown wallet.
Swayam- I love you damn!! So great. You know I really am fond of these...and keep changing.
Sharon*smirk*- True that hubby!! Love you..
And they ended their convo with a tight hug.
***
Sharon Simmi went to Institution and Saamia got along with Swayam and Nilesh.
Later, when they were back to Resort.
Both were welcomed by a hug from their own husbands.
Simmi- Guys!! Chalo ready ho jao.
Sharon- Haan abhi it's 5 only ya.
Simmi- No arguments.Please. Hum sab bahar jayenge aaj...
Nilesh- Simmi sahi bol rahi hai...
Swayam- Achha okay.
***
Sharon- And my darling love, this is another gift for you.
Saying this she gave him a Shirt n Jeans which she had shopped from Paris only.
Swayam- Are you crazy! Itna sab? Oh mahn.
Sharon*smiling*- You know you are the best.
Swayam- You consider me...
Sharon*grin*- Actually I don't lie.
He gave a cheek peck to her...speaking "Love you"...
The next, Saamia came to them...
Saamia- Mommy..
Sharon- Haan wait. Making you dress.
Swayam- By the way, I ain't wearing this today...
Sharon- Kyun???
Swayam- Are you wearing what I gifted?
Sharon- Should I? Because it's cold here.
Swayam- Yeah. So wear... umm.. Any Saari and I'll wear tux.
Sharon- Mr.!! Not that bow, plz!!
Swayam chuckled and agreed.
