Love at Symbol Of Love

When we were newly married, almost 7-8 months after, we went for a small trip to Agra. My brother in law had some friends who had come from Malasiya and wanted to see the Taj Mahal. We took on the long drive to Delhi-Agra express and headed towards the destination at almost midnight. 

Driving through the empty roads, we reached the Taj early morning just thirty minutes before the opening of ticket counters. Taking the ticket, we were among the first few to enter the white wonder. I had already been there, but it was a delight to watch the wonder with very few people to roam around. We clicked several pictures and had fun joking around. We spent almost 2 hours sitting here and there as the morning sun was not too harsh to push us in shadows.

As we were leaving and about to step down the stairs, we noticed a foreign couple standing in front of the monument. The guy was on his knees with a ring and girl was all smiling wide. It was such a treat to eyes to see a love story in making at the symbol of love itself. We stopped there to watch and give couple their required privacy. As the live birds confessed and hugged each other, we could not stop but clap for them. They greeted us with thankful eyes in return. That was when I realised that Pradeep also has been holding my hand tight all through the moments.

We left the place all smiling. I cannot ever forget the sight I witnessed. I seriously hope that their love blossom with each passing day.
