''Well evening crept in...though I was tired of being
roaming in the Churchyard but I was very excited to see the night glory of beach..I am hell excited and waiting for Tani.The Queen herself doesn't take too much time like my best friend do''-- Second day in Venice
I closed my diary after penning my experience but..where is Tani.urghhh this girl.
"Tani..Tani.. we are getting late..plz keep your business aside for sometime,''I shouted as I heard her talking over the phone for last thirty minutes.
''Ya..Ya baby..but we'll come back soon coz today is a stormy weather and high tide..so staying their for long time is quite dangerous,''she warned me but I gave her a deaf ear nothing could stop me enjoying the once in a lifetime experience.

the waves were touching my feet..the water was chill..prickling my skin but I sat like it for long time..while Tani was busy taking my pics but I was too lost to feeling anything except the vast stretching sea and the dark sky over my head.
''San lets go its enough dark now..,''she nudged me but I looked up at her,''Tani plz for some more time may be whether I will get a chance again or not,''
''Or may be you'll find your Prince charming here in Venice and next time you come here soon with him,''she teased me but for my surprise I returned a smile instead of giving her some curses or chasing her like hungry leopard.
After spending almost two hours there we came back to hotel and had a delicious Italian meal and then jumped on bed like sleepy dogs.
Morning crept in...may be a new morning which will bring new hopes and new luck in two lover's life..who didn't meet each other yet...The morning marks a new beginning.
''San..San..ohh my sleeping beauty I told you na..we are going at my house..bhai called me and invited you too..nd..lemme tell you he is very punctual and hate late comers,''Tani was jerking me continuously.
''Ummm..Tani..its 6:15 AM..who wake up this early...let me sleep and you sleep too,''I mumbled pulling the quilt over my head again.
''Ohh hello...we have to be there before nine..and you...you take very less time to get ready."she mocked me and pulled away the quilt leaving me almost naked .
The sudden hit of cold air made me open my heavy eyes.
I had no other choice except to wake up coz I knew this wicked woman would not let me romance with my pillow and quilt.I yawned like a kitten and dashed into loo.

I wore a white knee length dress and neatly tied my hairs into high bun.''Perfect''I complemented myself.
''As always,''came Tani's voice.
I put light make up .I thought it was unnecessary to load myself in fansy dresses and party make up.
'Shall we leave now..Nicola is waiting for us in parking area.''she told me.
''What that weird man..Goshh...how I will complete my journey with that man..,''I sighed in irritation.
''He is not that bad.you will come to know it soon baby,''Tani defended that gazing machine.
But much to my my shock he greeted me showing his 32 teeths and gave me a warming smile.
The car drove to the outskirts of the city.I saw magnificent bungalows in a good distance .I assumed rich and influential people lived there.
Soon we reached on a typical Italian style bungalow...it was huge and mesmerizing.The stone walls surrounded the house from all sides.
it reminds me of our ancestor's old house in India..where the golden days of my childhood was spent.
''Even you are not less than a princess,this villa is nothing in front of your haveli.''she replied thus my face colour changed..''no its a cursed past Tani..lets go inside,''I ended the topic.My past haunted me like a nightmare now.
Ohh God a man like Olympus was standing there.He was smiling at Tani.A man probably in his twenties and six feet tall with broad chest .His thick black hairs combed back giving him a supermodel look.
I saw him in the view mirror of car.My breath hitched in my throat for a second.
The driver stopped the car .Tani was first to climb out .
''Bhai..good morning'',Tani hugged her brother like a baby monkey hugged his mumma.
He is Tani's brother.They do not share same features.
''ohh my baby how are u,''he replied with a bright smile.I noticed dimples on his cheeks when he smile.Tani too have dimples.
I was listening to brother-sister convo with a smile.I wish I could enjoy this family attention.
Meanwhile my phone buzzed my phone .It was Carmel so I went to a corner to talk to her.
Randhir...
''Where is your friend?''I asked impatiently finding Tanya alone.
''No bhai she is here..actually she is on call so she went aside,''Tanya said pointing on a girl who was talking over the phone.Her back faced us.
Tani called my Cindrella.
Sanyukta...
''San..San..come baby,''Tanya called me and I turned to them.
The moment froze there when we saw each other.
''Same eyes...which I saw in party..dark,deepened,black..is he the same person behind the mask?''my heart questioned to me.
My legs were numb to move.I was midst of my inner storm.What was all that a beautiful miraculous reality or just another dream.
"Hey San..are you again in your dream world?"Tani's continuous yellings brought me back on the earth.With shaking steps I started walking up to them.
Randhir...
''Ohh God..is she real..my dream girl...it means God himself give me those signals...she is in real..same face..my Ms. Cindrellla,''my heart fluttered .My eyes were stuck on the shy self conscious woman who was coming near me in baby steps.
The moment she stood in front of us,my heartbeat increased on a dangerous pace.I feared if it would jump out breaking my rib cage.
''Bhai she is my best friend San...I mean Sanyukta Agrawal...and San he is my brother Randhir Singh Shekhawat...you didn't meet him at party,''Tanya introduced us to each other.
We shared an intense eye lock.Her hazel eyes were as mysterious as an unsolved puzzle.I was the first to break our moment.I didn't want to make her uncomfortable.My mother taught me to respect a woman in every way.
"Hello Ms. Its pleasure to meet you,''he forwarded his hand for a handshake.Only I knew how I resist myself till now to feel his magical touch on my skin.
I forwarded my trembling hand and.....our skin touched...the same spark..same jittery feeling...I am sure he was the same person...and my doubt cleared when he tucked a random strand behind my ear.
"It is disturbing you I thought.."he said in his husky voice.God he is my death.
''Bhai...San...are u okay guys..you both are holding each other's hand since last five minutes.I immediately broke the handshake and looked here and there to avoid the teasing queen.
''Lets go inside...Nicola..plz check on the breakfast."he commanded Nicola.Then I realized why Nicola present everywhere.
He took us inside the house.The interior was more attractive...pure white walls..and antique decorating items on them...a huge picture of a couple most probably their parent's and other one of Shekahwat siblings.
We started chit chat on random topics but two eyes were stealing my glance time to time...I knew it.All the while I tried my best not to look at him.
''So Ms. Agrawal..what you do..I mean your profession other than modelling for your bestie. Tanya told me you do modelling for her.'',he broke the ice between us.
He was talking to me all normal but I had a difficult time to deal with his intense personality.
''Ummm..I am a mechanical engineer by profession..I did my graduation in London..and started working in Paris..where I met Tani for the first time...modelling was my passion so she gave me a chance to enhance my hobby,''I replied honestly.
''Ohh so you r an M.E..I must say you would be a excellent engineer too.''he said in his sexy tone...My God he'll kill me with his talks only.
''Yaa bhai.,but her..a*s h**e boss..never worth her talent,''Tani cursed my boss but I am agree with her on this point coz he is a pervert.
''In which company do you work,''he asked curiously.
I told him my company's name...and other few detail but the next he said make me numb.
"Miss Sanyukta Agrawal would you like to join Shekhawat Group of Company.We hire the best of talent and I can see one in you''

"Miss Sanyukta Agrawal would you like to join Shekhawat Group of Company.''He dropped a bomb on me..I was not able to react at that moment..seriously he want me to join his firm or it was just my ears heard something wrong.I was in a dilemma.How could he jump on trusting a complete stranger .Weird ?"Ahem.Ahem..''he cleared his throat to gain my attention.Tani was signalling throw her eyes that whats wrong with me that I am not a
11:00 pm...I was twisting and turning on the bed..reason..Him.I looked at Tani,she was snoring peacefully.Sleep was far away from my eyes so I rolled out of the bed and came out of the room.The house was pitch dark except the few roof lights.Having no clue where to go I went to the garden..the best place I decided to get some peace where fragrant air hits my nostrils and sense.Though it was quite chilly but I was feeling relaxed.After spending some time there I stood up to go back into the room.While I was walking through the corridor when she heard a faint melodious song coming from the library.My legs automatically moved in the direction of the library.''Who must be there at this hour..and listening Hindi song! Tani is sleeping
Sanyukta...I was still in the daze.He asked me..I mean us to stay at his home...really!My heart was dancing like a five years old girl who got her favorite candy.,yess I couldn'tt loose the opportunity,last time I choose that stupid mind of mine but this time I'll do whatever my mad yet mature heart say.''Yess Sir,its pleasure to stay in this homely environment,everyone is sweet and friendly here,so I have no problem...''I answered his question and a bright smile crept on his face.This man always successful in stealing my heart...wait heart?Its a too strong word to use now though sounds good.''Okay so Tani let her take some rest she must be tired you can go with Nicola and bring your stuffs here..I'll pay the hotel bill later,''I told Tanya to go alone as I wanted to spend somequality time with my Ms. Cindrella which was impossible under my sister's spying presence.(
Sanyukta--He asked me about my past,the past which is not less than a nightmare for me.Those painful memories which still refresh like an open wound..how much I try to run away from them but they are like my own shadow.I composed myself and came to help Tani who was busy cursing me while arranging our stuffs.''Tani ..you go and have some rest..I'll do it,''I grabbed her hand and made her sit on the beany bag.''Thank you Madam...I owe you for it,my legs are aching like hell.''she cringed like a kid curling on the soft material."I can give you a foot massage .."I raised my eyes while putting our clothes in the cupboard."Sounds good.."she winked at me.I arranged our luggage in half an hour and the clock struck 5:pm.I took a deep breath and came out of our room.He was nowhere to be seen,may be out for some work.Everybo
Sanyukta.."Shhhh..calm down Randhir...its okay..I know how it feels..when you lost your everything..be strong. If life has taken something from you ...trust there is lots of happiness in future for you''I was patting his head,he broke the hug and looked at me.''Am I forgiven..?''He asked looking into my eyes.''Yess..and now no more sorry,its quite late you should sleep now,''I said to him not realising that we are still in each other's arm.''First leave me Ms. Agrawal,''he indicated on my arms.A smirk played on his thin lips.''Ohh sorry..I didn't notice,''I was embarrassed that he reminded me about our hug,but the fact was he hugged me .. actually caged me in his strong grip.''Good Night..and sweet dreams,''he wished me and left from there.''Marry
Randhir...We prayed,ate,danced with other people on different Christmas songs..but one thing caught my attention,Her gloomy eyes,they were depicting a strange kind of pain when we were enjoying in a Christmas Carnival.The way she was keenly looking at the kids who came there with their parents..how their parents were pampering them...giggling andenjoying with them.I was sure its something related to her past..may her childhood.Sleep was far away from my eyes as whenever I try to close my eyes..her those gloomy orbs flashed in my mind.Finally I got up from bed and decided to take a tour of garden.It had become my favorite spot since the last night,we shared our first hug there..in the mind blowing floral fragrances. The lights were switched off in the whole corridor
Randhir...I looked at her again,her sobs became silent and a serene calmness was lingering on her face but still my angel was in pain..the pain which can be reduced but not removed.Only time and emotional care could heal her canker sore,and I promise to myself I will become her ointment but as for now I wanted to spend next last 24 hours with her.I will make these 24 hours special for us..I'll keep the foundation of our eternal love so that only death have the power to separate us.She is mine..only mine .I looked at my Cindrella she was sleeping on my shoulder and a random hair lock covered her beautiful face,I tucked it behind her ear....she smiled in her sleep as if she knew the familiarity of the touch.I didn't wanted to disturb my sleeping beauty so I picked her up in my arms like a fragile crystal doll and started moving towards Tanya
Next Day...the diparture..Sanyukta...''San..my packing is done..do you check your stuffs.?''Tani was asking me but I was lost in my thoughts.I was feeling like a part of mine is separating from my body.In these seven days,this city cast its spell on me,I feel a strong connection with it,but sometime we can't do what our mind and heart wants..sometime we have to act according to what our destiny plans for us and this is my fate.I have to go back in my old life where there is no place for a living life.When I came to Venice I was just waiting to go back to Paris..until I saw those black eyes..which bounded
