FOREVER IN LOVE-II

Begins here…

Warm sunshine is making its way from the slits in the branches of the majestic cherry blossom tree standing erect in my Saionji temple courtyard. Well I say my because being Miyu Kanata Saionji means that I am the lady of the house so definitely I am the boss here, even though my oh-so-perfect husband wouldn't like to hear the b-word. He doesn't need to know either…

Today is a very special day for me, even though I won't admit to him. It's Kanata's 71st birthday. I really don't believe that he and I have aged so much… and that too together? Well whoever saw us fight when we were 14 would have definitely fainted or even died out of shock to see us married and that too for so many years… sometimes even I am surprised…but once again Kanata doesn't need to know that…

Well as far as the old pervert lying on my lap is concerned, he is probably the best thing that has happened to me in my life…

He is one among the most handsome men created in the universe. Not just handsome by looks, he is also beautiful at his heart. One thing that I have discovered about him after so many years of living with him is that though he'll never show or express, deep inside he'll be horribly disturbed by things that mustn't happen and then secretively try to make things alright and then will himself end up in an emotional mess…

Really he is very complicated. By the way he teased me, mocked me, made life miserable for me, I never believed one bit in his stuttering confession about "LOVING ME BY ALL HIS HEART and all". But then the minute I gazed in his intense amber eyes, I don't know how I got hypnotized and all but then I too confessed back, about my love for him and promised to come back to him…

His eyes seem to have the most powerful of all magic in the whole world. One look from his eyes somehow calms me down, make my temper reach heights, make me cry, make me laugh, in short CONTROL ME…

When I showed myself after full 6 years, he just stared at me for a very long time…I too stared at him for a very long time and then the not-so-affectionate Saionji hugged me…HUGGED? I was shocked but he had more shocks coming in… he asked me to be his date… undoubtedly I agreed to be his first and definitely last date…

Then one fine day, he contracted a very horrible fever which just wasn't disappearing with any medicine he was given, not that he swallowed any medicine. I sincerely felt that he won't stay alive to see the day of our fourth dating anniversary. Despite the high fever, he insisted on avoiding both- doctors and hospital. He also won't allow any of me, his father or any of his friends to look after him. To add to my worries, he still wanted to go on that stupid date. Undoubtedly we had a big fight. Then when the big day came, he was by my door in a pitiable state and I just yelled at him for being a jerk and closed the door on his face. Then I tolerated about hundreds of rings from HIM. Finally I picked up and prepared myself to snap at him but then he said something that kind of gave me a heart attack…

He had said in a real strong stutter "Will you… MARRY ME?". No wonder he wanted to go on that date. Later on when I opened the door, he was standing there with a colorless face and a velvet box in his hand. Seeing me in tears and a smile, he put in the ring and that's how he proposed…

Later on I came to know that after months of rehearsing, preparing and truck loads of encouragement along with several death threats from Nanami, he came up with this simple plan of bringing me to a date to that nice place and proposing but then it turned out like that…

When I told all of them about our special moment, they all howled with mirth with Christine laughing so hard that she collapsed on the ground gasping out deep breathes and giggles. Kanata was just so angry…

Then we got married in a simple way. Then there were many changes that came in our life and the biggest and the best was- Miu, our beautiful and sweet daughter…

As much as I hate to admit it, she's as smart as her father. When I told Kanata that he was going to be a father, he was thrown into a such a nervous-happiness fit that it took him days to recover from it. But when Miu let out her first cry, I saw something I never saw – Kanata had tears in his eyes, tears of joy…

He was such a wonderful father to Miu but the wonderful part vanished when Miu decided to marry my son-in-law, a nice young man…they even blessed us with a sweet grandson whom I love a lot…

Thinking about Miu, I can't help myself but notice Kanata. He too had that dreamy look on his face that meant he too was DREADING THE PAST… just like me…

Then I glanced at his white hair, well I didn't myself believe when I got those white hair showing up for the first time on my golden crown whereas that Kanata had none… and when he had his first white hair, I was way too glad…

My body has now started aching but I won't, actually can't voice it out as IT IS HIS B'DAY, so instead I'll say, "Hey Kanata! Done with licking the past or want to continue? If you want to then go ahead but then don't you DARE complain about your body aching… " and I did…

I was expecting an annoying comment but instead he slowly stood up and helped me up too. We went inside and he, as usual stuck to his newspaper. Can't he talk to me? He should but he very rarely speaks… why should he speak? He understands anything and everything I want or I don't want by simply noticing me under his intense scrutiny…

I now have my daughter so I'll just talk to her… wow! Talking to Miu just cheers me up so much…

Then suddenly that ice block proclaims that he's going to sleep. I just nodded my head but I actually want to accompany him… he is my everything…

The reason why I live, the reason why I breathe, the reason why I SMILE… he has been the best husband one can only dream of, best enemy, best support, best father to our daughter; but above all, he has been my BEST FRIEND…

I loved, I love and I'll love Kanata Saionji for all my life and if possible; even after death… I have been, am and will be his Forever, maybe beyond what is called ETERNITY…

"GROW OLD WITH U" by Adam Sandler

I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad
Carry you around when your arthritis is bad
Oh all I wanna do is grow old with you

I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches
Build you a fire if the furnace breaks
Oh it could be so nice, growing old with you

I'll miss you
Kiss you
Give you my coat when you are cold

Need you
Feed you
Even let ya hold the remote control

So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
Put you to bed when you've had too much to drink
I could be the man who grows old with you
I wanna grow old with u...
