Chapter 3 :" Last Camp Night "

                               

Yuvraj Maheswari hadn't really thought about his sister getting married yet , Vihaan Bhai had been part of their life for so long that the wedding news never hit him until today when the whole family was busy with packing stuff for their night out .            

Camp night is something of a tradition in their family and usually the whole family spends the night outdoors except few occasions when his sister and dad went alone as well . Sometime Yuv and his dad went alone too but he usually preferred going out with his entire family ,the only honoury member invited to their camp night had been Vihaan Bhai and Gauri Di .

                    

Gauri Di used to come with them when they were young and Vihaan Bhai now . So he wasn't really thinking the marriage would change anything until his mother casually mentioned that this could be their last camp night .          

" Why would it be maa , just because I am marrying doesn't mean I will stop being part of our family " his Di answered back with a smile and his parents smiled affectionately at her while Yuv wondered if there was ant truth in it .        

 " Vihaan Bhai isn't coming " Yuv asked a little later wondering why he isn't around tonight .          

" Akash and him are having a boy night out, Now that Akash is engaged to Kavya ,he is hounded by reporters everywhere he goes that Vihaan said he needed a time out ,also he wanted my last camp night before marriage should be with just three of you  . " Lavanya di answered back and there was the word again before marriage as if everyone had already come to terms that their would be changed after marriage.          

As the family travelled to their usual camp site ,Yuv drove the car while his mind remained pre occupied with his sister marriage like never before , it doesn't made sense to Yuv considering his sister was marrying Vihaan Bhai who is part of their family for so long that he viewed the wedding as just a big fat celebration without giving it more thought .            

  Every part of the night out made him more Nostalgic that over the night he was closed himself off and believed no one noticed which wasn't the case when it comes to his family .           

" What going on Yuv, You have been quite all day long ?" his sister asked him as they sat together by the camp fire with their parents .            

 " Well I guess I never really confronted the idea of you getting married Di " he answered back truthfully , his sister didn't play down his reason for being upset but rather ruffled his head in affectionate gesture that she learned from Gauri Di which used to bother him a little when he crossed from a young boy into teen years but not today .              

" It is Scary Yuv ,a little . The fact I am marrying Vihaan is the only reason I am not scared a lot . There will be changes of course I know that but I am hoping that those changes would become part of our life in the future .          

Right now , I am imagining Vihaan as part of the camp night mode often from now and not just as a honoree member but as our family , and I also imagine somewhere down the years ,Lavanya would join us as well . In a way I would miss the fact sometime when it had been just four of us but Yuv I also look forward to having them as part of our life . " His sister answered back suddenly looked wiser than her 26 years .          

" Also imagine Little version of my Princess running around the camp site " his father voice spoke up making Yuv aware the conversation wasn't between the siblings and the parents have obviously overheard them .      

 " Dad .." Lavanya di addressed their father as she blushed at the reminder of her future kids but Yuv who had never thought about it till now suddenly found the whole idea of becoming a uncle a thrilling prospect .        

" I can teach him football" Yuv muttered to himself excited about his future nephew that the rest of the night went happily for him as he accepted what his Di said that her marrying wouldn't deprive him of her but rather add more family members to their life including a nephew he frequently hoped and also a niece who would have him wrapped around his fingers .

                 ************************        

Vihaan decided he had enough of Akash grumbling the fact he had decided to engage himself to Kavya in front of the whole world has been his idea and yet for the last two hours ,Vihaan had to listen to him complain about lack of privacy.        

" What did you expect when you did it so publicly and to Kavya ,one of the leading actress at the moment ? " he wanted to ask but since Akash already knew that he didn't feel like reminding him about that because his intention had been good .          

He still remember the time when Akash told him ,if Vihaan didn't step up and accept he was head over heels in love with Lavanya then he would pursue her . It was the jolt of fear of losing his Angel that propelled him to confess his heart and he couldn't imagine a life without her and in a way he owed it to Akash as well for stepping back instead of creating obstacles in their life .         

Vihaan knew Akash genuinely loved his Angel and over the years there had been no one he considered in her place but he also trusted his best friend to put their friendship first . That was why his engagement though fake came as a shock to him .        

 " So tell me have you talked with Kavya yet ,she would be affected by the reporters more than you " Vihaan asked wondering if his friend concern for Lavanya cousin ran deeper .         

" No ,she must be used to having cameras and mic in your face all the time unlike me ,I want my privacy back " Akash was back to his lamenting that Vihaan really felt bad for him .      

 " So why did you intervene ?" he asked because so far Akash hadn't come right out and said the reason to either him or his angel ,but his angel told him that he had apparently explained his actions to Kavya which was the only reason he was still alive ,she joked as they both know Kavya can be bit dramatic at times .       "

 Because i didn't want her to regret it later " he answered back just like the last few times and since he wasn't likely too say anymore Vihaan dropped the topic .          

They have been watching an horror movie to take Akash mind of his woes , when his phone rang in the middle of the night sending a jolt of adrenaline rush to both of them at the sudden sound that Vihaan can't help but locate the source of where it came from immediately and found it to be Akash phone and as he handed it over to his friend ,he can't help but notice the caller ID flashed in the screen as his finacee .            

Vihaan didn't want to overhear their conversation that he walked to the kitchen to get himself from water and when he returned back he found Akash more troubled than before that he can't help but ask what Kavya said to him .            

" She wants me to act as her errand boy now that we are engaged . " Akash lamented a little but refused to state anything more that he  let it slide ,while to strangers both of them will look totally different from each other ,Akash was outgoing , charming and would speak for an hour without stop while Vihaan was the total opposite yet when it comes to matter of heart they both are very similar as they always keep everything inside their mind .             

 Vihaan crashed for the night in Akash house considering the fact his angel and her family were in a camp night he had no reason to drive back home . Not before texting his angel good night even when he knew the cell reception would be difficult around the parts and acknowledging the fact she may not receive it either .                 

When he woke up the next day , he already had a message from his fiancée that they were on their way back , since it would take them two more hours he decided to cook some breakfast for Akash . As it not often Akash eat anything home cooked.                

He was in the kitchen cooking when the calling bell rang in Akash house ,since his attempts to wake Akash had failed the last three time he decided to check the door by himself and found himself starting at Akash father .             

The last  time they both met hadn't been exactly a pleasant memory considering it had been the day Akash mother died and Vihaan knew Akash and his father weren't on speaking terms till he can't let the man stay outside especially when came all the way to see Akash .            

" Where is Akash and how long have you been taking advantage of his generosity by staying here " Akash father spoke up because Vihaan had the fate of working under him as a part timer during his college days ,he looked down on Vihaan as someone not worth his connections .                 

Vihaan would have let it get to him before but not now , he had grown up enough to realize the blame rests with those who view him differently than himself .                 

" I will wake up Akash " he answered back politely as he went to wake his best friend ,all the while knowing this day could get lot worse due to his father arrival .                   

Akash didn't take the news of his father arrival kindly as he marched upto him to ask him to leave immediately , Vihaan had to hold him off before he physically throw his father out of the house considering the fact the man had been in a wheelchair , Vihaan realized it won't do well for all the reporters lurking around the house if they saw Akash throwing out his father out of their house .                

" You will not marry the who** you hear me " had been his father last words has he left making Vihaan wish he could be the one who threw him out considering he talked back about his family , he may not be legally married to his Angel yet but that doesn't make him stop from caring about her family .               

" You need to call it off Akash " he told his best friend a little late once he calmed down enough to have his breakfast .                

" I won't be scared by him " Akash answered back but Vihaan concern was that his father could make life scaries for Kavya .               

" Kavya can get hurt in the crossfire between you two " Vihaan spoke up and maybe if had been the wrong thing to say at the point as Akash looked at him with hint of anger .             

That Vihaan decided to drop the topic ,if he knew his best friend better than Akash would do the right thing and as he drove back home he hoped the new troubles in his friend life work itself out sooner  because he wanted his angel to have the wedding of her dreams .
