Riddhima was driving and Vansh was sitting aside her.

Van:So where we are going now?

Rid:Now we are going to Central Kolkata. First we will go to The Victoria Memorial.

Van:Oh nice.

Soon the reach Victoria Memorial.

Rid:It is fully made up of marble. The design is in the Indo-Saracenic revivalist style which uses a mixture of British and Mughal elements with Venetian, Egyptian, Deccani architectural influences. It is constructed of white Makrana marble.
At the top the central dome of the Victoria Memorial is the 16 ft (4.9 m) figure of the Angel of Victory. Now about the museum. The Victoria Memorial has 25 galleries. It also has a collection of rare and antiquarian books like William Shakespeare’s books, Arabian Nights and kathak dance book and many more.

Van:Wow!! It’s really interesting.

Rid:Let me say you about the garden. The gardens at the Victoria memorial cover 64 acres and are maintained by a team of 21 gardeners. There are many statues of kings and queens.

They roam around the garden and inside the museum. It’s an amazing place. There are many museums which has potraits of kings and war equipments.

After roaming there, they came out in parking lot.

Van:Now where we will go?

Rid:Now we will go to Dakshineshwar Temple. It is situated by Hoohgly River or Ganga.

Van:Oh. I heard about that.

Rid:Yes and we will go to Belurmath by boat.

Van:Oh wow. Such a nice experience.

Rid:Let’s go.

They reached Dakshineswar Temple.
They parked their car and buy some flowers and sweets for puja from the outside shops. Then they went inside for the quie

Rid:This is made by Rani Rashmoni. She was devotee of Kali Mata.

Van:Oh I see.

The temple compound, apart from the nine-spired main temple, contains a large courtyard surrounding the temple, with rooms along the boundary walls. There are twelve shrines dedicated to Shiva—Kali’s husband—along the riverfront, a temple to Radha-Krishna, a bathing ghat on the river, a shrine dedicated to Rani Rashmoni. ‘Nahabat’, the chamber in the northwestern corner just beyond the last of the Shiva temples, is where Ramakrishna and Maa Sarada spent a considerable part of their lives.

After giving puja they come beside Ganga river.

Rid:Now we will go to Belurmath by those boats.

They specially book a single boat for their quality time.

Vansh and Riddhima was sitting. Vansh hugs her from behind and witnessed the view of Ganga and the aside view.

Riddhima kepts her head on his chest and calms her mind. For these two days she totally forgot about her revenge. She want to spend some time with Vansh instead of all those revenge and avenge.

They reached BelurMath. It tooks hardly 15 mins to go there by the boat. There are two bridges on top of this river. One is Bally Bridge and other is Nivedita Setu. This Nivedita Setu is newly made bridge.

Rid:This was made by Swami Vivekananda. It shows about all the religion. In the main gate we can see statues of all the religions.

The Belur Math conducts medical service, education, work for women, rural uplift and work among the labouring and backward classes, relief, spiritual and cultural activities. The center also celebrates annual birthdays of Ramakrishna, Vivekananda, Sarada Devi and other monastic disciples. The annual celebrations of Kumari Puja and Durga Puja are one of the main attractions. The tradition of Kumari puja was started by Vivekananda. It is mainly famous for its Kumari puja during Durga Puja which happens day before Navratri.

Then they came back by boat and to the parking lot.

Rid:Now we will go Howrah Bridge and Science City.

Van:Science city?

Rid:Wait and watch darling.

Van:Ok sweetheart.

They were passing from Howrah Bridge.

Rid:Howrah Bridge is a balanced cantilever bridge over the Hooghly River in West Bengal, India. The bridge was originally named the New Howrah Bridge, because it replaced a pontoon bridge at the same location linking the two cities of Howrah and Kolkata.

It weathers the storms of the Bay of Bengal region, carrying a daily traffic of approximately 100,000 vehicles and possibly more than 150,000 pedestrians, easily making it the busiest cantilever bridge in the world. The third-longest cantilever bridge at the time of its construction, the Howrah Bridge is currently the sixth-longest bridge of its type in the world.

Van:Wow!! It’s totally hanging on the river. And after so much weather disturbances and pressure of cars and all it is totally same. Holdng it’s charm.

Rid:Yes Vansh. Let me tell you about Second bridge. Vidyasagar Setu, also known as the Second Hooghly Bridge, is a toll bridge over the Hooghly River in West Bengal, India, linking the cities of Kolkata and Howrah. With a total length of 823 metres, Vidyasagar Setu is the first and longest cable-stayed bridge in India.

Prinsep Ghat is situated with it only.

Prinsep Ghat is one of the oldest recreational spots of Kolkata. People visit it in the evenings on weekends to go boating on the river, stroll along the bank and purchase food from stalls there. A 2-kilometre stretch of the beautified riverfront from Prinsep Ghat to Babughat (Baje Kadamtala Ghat) was inaugurated on 24 May 2012. It has illuminated and landscaped gardens and pathways, fountains and renovated ghats. One of the songs in the Bollywood film Parineeta was shot here on the ghats.

Vansh wakes up and stands up straight.

Van:Where is suprise? Give me. See I waked up.

Rid:Come with me.

Then he saw the most unexpected thing. Riddhima was sitting in her knees with a ring in her hand. Her eyes were full of love for him.

Rid:My life is wonderful because you are with me, you make me happy even if I feel sad and low. Your smile lightens up my life and all the darkness disappear. Your love has made me crazy. My eyes search for you when you are not around. My heart aches when I don’t find you. You are the reason for all my happiness and without you my life would be so dull. All I want in my life is that we stay together for all the life.
You are like a medicine to me. When I see you smiling, it gives relief to my pains. When I think of you, I understand the meaning of life. When you are with me, everything looks beautiful and I feel happy. You make me think about yourself all the time. Even my heartbeat says that I love you. You are the man of my dreams and you give me the reason of life. I do not know that how to spend my life without you. I don’t know its good or bad but you have become my habit now. I can’t resist you. All I know is that I will forget every problem when I lean my head on your shoulder. I love you Vansh from the core of my heart. I will love you till the end of my life. And I want to be with you all my life. Slowly you have become the reason of my life. Ami Tomake Bhalobasi ( I love you-it’s in bengali😂). YOU ARE THE REASON OF MY HAPPINESS, YOU ARE THE REASON OF MY LIFE, YOU ARE THE REASON OF MY ECSTASY.

In the background music was playing by musicians who were standing there .

Tere qareeb aa raha hoon
Khud se main door jaa raha hoon
Yeh bewajah toh nahi hai
Tu jo mila…

Dheere dheere se tera hua
Haule haule se tera hua
Rafta rafta tera hua
Tere bin main hoon be-nishaan

Dheere dheere se tera hua
Haule haule se tera hua
Rafta rafta tera hua
Tere bin main hoon be-nishaan

Both of them have tears in there eyes. Vansh never thought to him as so lucky. He got such a pleasant suprise by his sweetheart. Tears rolls down from their eyes. All the other persons im the park witnessed their proposal.

Van:I love you too sweetheart more than myself. Love is a beautiful feeling that has made me crazy. Yes, I am crazy about you. I am so lucky that I am in love with this much loving person. You are the one who has made my life complete and now I don’t need anything more. I just want you to be with me till the end. I love you too. God has made couples and I know that you are my mate. I am so proud to have you because there is no one who can understand me and love me the way you do. I love you for all this. I want you to hold me tight and hug me and never let me go.

Riddhima wear him the ring. Vansh makes her stand up. Both hug each other tightly.

In the background music changes:

Rehna tu pal pal dil ke paas
Judi rahe tujhse har ik saans…

Khud pe pehle na itna yaqeen mujhko ho paya
Mushqil si ghadiyan asaan huyi ab jo tu aaya

Ik baat kahun tujhse
Tu paas hai jo mere

Seene se tere sar ko laga ke
Sunti main rahun naam apna
Seene se tere sar ko laga ke
Sunti main rahun naam apna

Oh likh di tere naa’ jindadi zaaniye
Bas rehna tere naal ve zuriye
Rehna tu pal pal dil ke paas
Judi rahe tujhse har ik saans

Seene se tere sar ko laga ke
Sunta main rahun naam apna
Ho naam apna

After that they had their dinner.
