THIS IS IT, you say??!

*The main leads are at Tard's home now. Both of them sit across the table and start stating their rules.

Bliss before starting the rules gets curious and asks Tard to tell the actual reason behind him marrying Bliss.

Tard's thoughts

*I wish I could tell you that I am marrying you just to keep my promise. But I want to tell you everything at a right time. *

After seeing Tard being sunk in his thoughts, Bliss snaps her finger and signs him to tell something.

Tard snapping out of his thoughts tells her that " My mom... My mom's the main reason. "

Bliss gets surprised and says, "Your mom??!?! "

Tard nods his head as if he's telling something very intensively, " Yeah... my mom... She told me that one day she went to bring groceries and someone tried to rob her chain, so a daring girl just came in time and gave that robber into a corpse and called the cops immediately. She was very impressed by this and told me that she only wants the girl who did this great act with selflessness as her daughter-in-law or else she won't accept anyone else... She dug up about you and forced me to marry you or else she will go on a hunger strike. My dad always supported my mom, so he also insisted on this matter. Now, you tell me, as an only child of not so aged but old parents with not so healthy but unhealthy conditions...how can I deny them? "

Bliss nodding her said says, "Hmm... I can understand your feelings- Wait... You being such a billionaire, why did your mom worry about being robbed of just a chain and why was she shopping groceries herself having so many maids and why the damn heck am I not able to remember this incident? "

Tard presses his eyes twice hard, showing noticeable fake teary eyes, nodding his head and says, " I can understand your questions... Though I am a billionaire, my mom loves going shopping alone without any guards or maids... You can say, it relaxes her to shop alone and about the fact of that chain robbery, that chain was personally given by my dad when he got his first paycheck. So she preserves it. "

Tard's thoughts

*I don't think she will give in... But I hope she will be as silly as ever and fall into my trap.*

Bliss thoughts

*Is he trying to fool me? Let's check it out by asking him to make me meet his parents *

Bliss being all quirky, "If your parents insist you marry me to this level, let's give your parents a surprise by meeting them together after setting up these rules."

Tard being a little hesitant, "Y-yeah sure, you are their future daughter-in-law. You have all the damn rights to meet them whenever you wish to. "

Bliss replies, "Let's wrap up soon then, come on. I am very damn excited to meet my future in-laws who have showered so much love on me."

Tard with a hesitant smile " Yeah yeah...Your future in-laws, who are going to be your just in-laws tomorrow."

Tard and Bliss stare deeply into the depth of their eyes.

Tard thinks to start stating the rules but then Bliss cuts off his words and says...

"I believe that any marriage can be saved when two people are putting their efforts into it with utmost loyalty, love and hard work. You are capable of anything I can ever imagine so I have no issues opposing this marriage and it's never been like I have had any interest in someone or as if I was in love with someone already to reject this marriage. I wish that there should be no secrets between us, I am a heavy over-thinker and gets upset over very little things. I won't wish for huge things but always the littlest things. It's never like I haven't dated anyone even after so many years. I did date a boy when I was in high school, but I don't consider it as dating because it didn't even last for 3 days."

Bliss returning to the old times...

" I really had no interest in dating but that one guy came up to me and just boldly confessed to me so I thought to give it a try since my parents always wanted me to date. He wasn't rich at all but that never bothered me because I don't know why but it just didn't bother me. The first day was good because I didn't communicate well. On the second day, he asked me many questions and I was too frustrated. I wasn't frustrated because he asked me questions about myself but my parents and their salary and their income, etc. I thought this is common and let it go. But then at night when I was about to sleep, I had too many thoughts about them. All his questions pestered me and bugged me so much that I was tired of thinking of them. The next day he tried to act physically and I denied it so he was very sad but then I became sadder that I hurt someone. I hated physical contact before, so I didn't let him come near me before I explain it to him, he just broke up with me and they bugged me for many days.

Hence, since that day I decided to not sate anyone because I realised that if I date and they are accidentally hurt by me, I will regret it more than them.

This is the short story of mine not dating anyone after these many years."

Tard being in a confusion, " Why did you agree to this marriage then?"

Bliss not even hesitating, " At first, I denied it but then I realised that you have a large sum of money and you can buy me a lot of food in the future and even let me do anything I want, let me go anywhere I want. Also, I want to bug you the rest of my life, I don't know why but my heart asks for your presence and asks me to stay with you and bug you until my last breath."

Tard being touched but not showing it asks her " If you would love a rich guy, he could also give you these luxuries."

Bliss raising her eyebrows asks, "You want me to go back to find my true love now and drop our marriage?"

Tard laughed hesitantly and said, " No no that's not what I meant. I just was curious. By the way, I'm very special, right? I make you bug me forever and all. Guess my handsomeness has worked."

Bliss replying to his sentence says "Don't worry, I lose my interest in any guy very easily. I never had any interest yet but I am sure that if you keep up with this shit, I will lose my interest which isn't even existing very easily."

Tard says "Don't worry, I promise you that I will calm down every over-thought of yours. I promise to not let you worry much. I promise you that you can go back to your parent's home without my permission for as many long days as you want. I promise you that I will let you wear, eat and do whatever you wish to. I promise that I will let go of you if you are either tired of this marriage or when you find someone you love, but you have signify me though. I promise to not interfere between you and your friends. I promise to give you space and privacy until you adjust with me. I promise to cook for you every dinner, I can't make breakfasts and lunch as I will be busy in meetings but dinner will for sure be yours made by me. If I ever miss out our any appointments, I promise to listen to whatever demands you have. I promise to not force you to do anything you don't like. This is it for now. Do they seem a little less? If you have any demands, you can shoot. "

Bliss with a teary eye says " THIS IS IT, you say? Let's get married ASAP."

Tard with a little giggle asks confused " What about sleeping? How are we gonna sleep??
