It's too late to say

Info

                     She is tired. If she can't able to sleep today, she can't able to wake up or even stand straight tomorrow during her marriage ceremony. She went inside the "Bride's Room" and tried to find a place to rest but she can't able to find a place to put her leg inside the room. The room was fully occupied by her aunties. She is too tired to wake someone up, make them understand that she want to sleep, find herself a place to sleep seemed to be the most difficult job right now. She closed the door.

She find a corner chair and decided to do sit-and-sleep method. 

After 10 minutes she was woken up by someone calling her name, she opened her eyes and found her future husband sitting next to him. 

"You don't want to sleep? or Don't want your make-up to be removed?" he said smirking. 

"oh my bellowed! some angel came in my dreams and said that if I don't sleep tonight, then I will get a better life and I don't have to get married to an idiot " she said pinching his cheeks.

"Thank god, I don't have to be in Lifelong  imprisonment, please don't sleep" he said by faking a child's expression

"Seriously Madhan !! you don't have to marry me, I'll just go and tell my dad to stop this preparations, at least after that I can go home and find a place to rest my head and sleep" she said in fake anger

"Now I understand, you didn't get a place to sleep, right?" he asked keeping his face seriously

"Yeah baby! you finally understand my problem , If you didn't get me a place to sleep, tomorrow I can't even able to sit straight while you tying the sacred thread around my neck" she said and rested her head in his shoulders    

"Okay vyshu, No problem, I'll find a place for you, just wait a moment" he said and walked away.

He came back after sometime.

" I have found one room, it's my brother's. Actually he have just landed from U.S . I have asked him whether I can use that room, he said he will go to my sister's place tonight and will come to our marriage tomorrow morning, But the room is a mess, I have just cleaned the bed for you, Sorry dear please adjust for this night, from tomorrow I'll make everything to make you perfectly comfortable" he said by holding her hands.

She is impressed. she fell in love with him long before this. Even though theirs is an arrange marriage they have got enough time to fall in love. She always impressed him with her knowledge in business matters and the little surprises she gave him make him feel special. Now it's his turn to make her feel special and he is doing that even in small things.

"Thank you" she said with her voice full of love

Inside the room...

For her the sleep was gone long ago. she felt happy. she is happy for being in love. she imagined her life with him. From tomorrow she belonged to him officially. Her life is going to change new home, new kind of people, new agenda for everyday. she is not afraid, she is excited, she like her In-laws they are quite awesome.

Thinking this she laid in the bed, when she turned she saw a diary. She take that in her hand and flipped the pages. In the first page it had written " To my love..... by Shiva". Shiva is Madhan's brother whose room she is now in. She have never saw or talked with him because he was in America. She kept the diary in the same place. But something in her want to read the diary and want to know the secrets of her brother-in-law.

She opened the first page...

"Hi priya!
               I never felt writing diary before and never done that before. But for the first time I felt write this for two things. First thing, I miss you, I have seen you few times but the image of yours is just got saved permanently in my mind so if I write about you in this diary whenever I miss you I'll read this and feel happy.  Second thing I want to show you this diary, I want to show you how much I love you, all this time. I have come here to U.S to follow my dreams and to become success in life. But I constantly feel missing you. I regret that I didn't  told "I love you". I will tell you how I fell for you.

First Time :

I was in a bus, travelling to a college for Aptitude training. I have worked as freelancer for these kind of trainings because teaching is what I am good at. The institute hired me for one day, from 2nd day their employee will take the class. so I just have to cover it for one day. The conductor told me it'll take 1 and half hour to reach that college. When I decided to hear songs. I heard a voice, a sweet voice but with anger, that was from a girl who is a seat before me and that's you.

"Why on this earth this is happening to me?
See, I don't want to go to a job now, I just planned to do MBA after BE. Just make that stupid lecturer to understand that I am preparing for CAT so can't able to attend their stupid training. How can I sit in a stupid class where a stupid trainee will teach me those 6th standard maths".
You were shouting in your phone and I feel offended. because I am one of those stupid trainee you have mentioned. But to your knowledge it's not just 6th std maths it also comprises up to 12th std. And again you started.

"Okay! That H.O.D wants me to be there tomorrow right. I'll be there and will tell him what I want to be. He is not the one who decide my future. I haven't attend that soft skill training so I am not going to pay those 2500 rupees for the training. Sorry sneha, I have shouted at you. I just lost my temper"

I didn't fall in love with you at that time. I just like a girl who challenge my Job as a stupid trainee.

Second time :

I have just started to teach Number systems after Introducing myself. After 30 minutes of class. I heard the voice, the same voice "Excuse  me, Sir!". I turned and you stand there, at the entrance.

You entered the class without me, giving the permission. You stand without finding a place in the last bench. Only the first bench places were left empty. You sat in the first bench with full of frustration.

I continued the class fully known that I'm a clown before your eyes teaching Maths. But to my surprise you answered my questions as soon as I wrote it on the board that too correct, I'm impressed. Because until then I believed a psychology that good looking girls are not good at maths but you are looking damn good and never find a difficulty in numbers. I deliberately gave difficult problems but before finish explaining formulas you are ready with your answer.

After the morning session ended. I want to talk to you, I want to know you.

 

" You are good at this, I mean have you gone to any coaching center, so you already know the formulas" I asked taking my bag

"No, I'm good at what I know, I just saw the problems logically so I can able to answer quick, I don't find easy in those x,y,z formulas, sir" you said by doing the extra problems I gave

"Can I give you some extra problems?, because you are too fast" I asked you, not wanting to end the conversation.

"No, thank you, sir. Anyway I am not going to attend this stu.., I mean I have some other assignments to do, so I am going to ask my Mentor for permission, I will not attend these training sessions anymore, sir" you said and closed your notebook and you started moving out of the class

" May I know your Name?" I asked, trying to sound professional but failed miserably.

"You can call me Priya, sir" you said and went out of the class.

You  know what, that I have changed my teaching methodology after that day, I teach my students to face the sums logically. You are in my mind every time. I just want to see you again just to know you more just want to be impressed by you again. It was excitement.

Third time :

In the Institute where I am working as an trainer is helping an MNC to select appropriate candidates for absolutely high paying Job, so the interview levels are with absolute difficulty. Where I have been helping an HR to monitor the candidates interview in all the aspects.

"Excuse me, Sir" a voice and I know it as clear as I know maths. You came inside and didn't notice me sitting behind.  I just can't stop smiling because I saw you again. so here is my another opportunity.

"Hello vyshnava priya, how are you?" HR asked verifying your resume.

"Hello, sir. I am good, How are you?" you asked

"I am fine priya! , you are good in your academics. And you have done good in the previous levels of this interview. So what would you do once you get the Job?" he asked

"Shall I tell the truth?, If you don't mind, sir" you asked him, little hesitated

"yeah sure! Go head" he said surprised

" I want to show my offer letter to my H.O.D and tell him that I got a job now and don't ask me to attend anymore interviews for increasing this years Number of placed student list" you said

"Why? you hate interviews or not want to work? could you explain that" he asked

" I want to do MBA, sir. I want to understand the business and want to excel in that. I don't want to just do programming. I want to learn trade, business ethics etc. I just don't want to finish here. But even after explaining this to my college officials they don't understand, they want me to get placed for namesake. that's it, sir" you replied him

"Okay, but if you didn't say this, do you know that, you will get this job?" he asked

"May be, sir. But I don't want that. If I get this job, someone will not get this job. so it's better to give this job to someone who need it. I just want to show them I can come to this final stage. I'm content with that" you said.

"I'm impressed Ms.Priya, Thank you, you can leave now" he said

You left the place. I wanted to follow you but I have to be there, because there is 6 interviews left. After the interviews I came outside to find you but you have left the place. I missed you again.

Then I have given a scholarship in an university. so I left to U.S hoping to find you again once I returned to India. I want to be a better person not just a stupid trainer.

Fourth time :

Today is a very special day. You know what, I'm happy as heaven. I have returned to India  for my brother's marriage. And I found you right after entering the Marriage Mahal. You are sitting in a chair and sleeping. I really can't believe my eyes you are here in this marriage. so tomorrow I can talk to you, may be impress you, may be I can tell " I Love You".

Diary finish...

She now know who is the girl, she is the one.
Her full name is Vyshnava priya. She don't know what to do. Whether she should tell this to Mathan. She decide to let it happen what have to happen. She decide to act like she never read this diary.

Tomorrow Morning.

       Shiva want to find who is priya in this marriage? He is sure she is not his relative. He decide she should be relative on bride's side. He soon gotten ready and reached the marriage place. He asked his brother to introduce him to all bride side relatives so he can able to find priya, love of his life.

"What? you mean your college girl is here, the one you told, you are in love with" Mathan asked Shiva

"Yeah! I saw her yesterday, I tried to talk to her, but then you asked me to leave I left, can you  at least introduce me to my sister-in-law I'll take care from there" shiva told

"Okay sure! wait" Mathan told and asked him to follow.

Mathan knocked the door, some girl opened and vyshu is there with full bridal makeup. She turned and smiled at Mathan.

"Hey! you are awesome , you are beatiful........ and by the way this my Shiva my sweet little brother " Mathan introduced Shiva to vyshu

Vyshu forced a smile and not to think about the diary.

"Hi, Shiva! How is U.S?" she smiled at him

Shiva has never imagined that she will be his Sister-in-law.

"Hi, you are priya right?"

" Yes! I'm vyshnava priya"

He left the room. After coming outside he thought

It's too late to say " I Love You"
