.....Preet....

'' Ab chale?'' (Let'sx Go?) he asked forwarding his hand.

''Do you seriously think after all this I will come with you?'' I asked back.

''Okay then even I won't go!'' he exclaimed.

''This is Blackmailing Kabir!'' I expressed.

''Do each as own.'' he explained.

''This is your Party and ho gayi na Holi abhi?'' I asked straight away and he turned around throwing a towel over my head.

''Hardly matters!'' he shrugged wiping my hair with the towel.

''urgh, okay fine let's Go!'' I said holding his hand looking up to see his smiling face.
On reaching Malhotra Mansion all of us wished each other as i took blessings from all eelders, the party hadn't started yet. we were all helping the caterers when unfortunately I received a call from Hospital for an emegency, I pulled Kabir outside and informed him about it. Biting my lips i looked up at Kabir while he let an irritated sigh.

''Come i'll drop you.''

''No, Kabir it is your party, I'll leave and come back as soon as possible.''
before he could say anything someone else piped in.

''Whats happening?'' he asked.

''None of your concern Tarun.'' Kabir replied.

''Tell us, may be we can help.'' Tara interuppted and then I told her everything.

''Kabir Preet is Right, it's your party, you should be here and about Preet, Tarun will drop her.'' Tara opined.

Kabir looked at me silently. His eye speaking a million words. It wasn't a hidden fact that Kabir hated Tarun.
I bit my lips but before Kabir or for that matter I could interject guests started walkiing in, having no other option I took the offer. I moved towards Kabir and kissed him on his cheeks.

''I'll be back before you know.'' I spoke pulling away from him. After which I along with Tarun walked towards his car while Kabir and Tara accompanied the guests inside.

Later in the car I kept looking outside the window to avoid him but that too didn't last long as he gripped my right hand. I pulled my hand away scooping more towards the door.

''Uhmm Tarun, it's okay, I'll catch a taxi from here.'' I offered.

''No, it's fine.'' he declined.
After another 5 minutes of silence he spoke again.

''Why did you marry him baby girl?'' he asked.

''How does it matter to you?'' I questioned back.

''You always knew I loved you.'' he said.

''Stop the car Tarun.'' I stated but he ignored me.

''I said stop the car.'' I shouted louder this time forcing him to halt the car. Within minutes I stepped out looking for a taxi. Following me he too walked out pulling me holding my wrist.

''Don't leave me baby.'' he said.

I pulled away my wrist slapping him hard.

''How dare you touch me.'' I shouted.

''What does he have that I don't. Trust me baby girl I can give you far more pleasure than that bast....''
he couldn't complete the sentence as I slapped him again.

''Just because you are Tara's brother I have been tolerating you all this while. don't push me to spill all your great acts to everyone.'' I warned before finally hailing a cab and getting in moving towards my Hospital. On reaching there I was informed about the malfunctioning of some machineries. I immediately called for a meeting of concerned autrhorities asking them to reconsider all machinery for checking and update me about its condition as soon as possible.

Once I was done with them, all the annoyance from the day took over as I entered my cabin slumping down on my chair, I was burdened with all the happenings for the day and all I knew was I needed to get it out thus explaining my reasons to calling Abhi, shockingly he picked up within the first ring, laughing I told him all that happening. At first he laughed at how Kabir tricked me for holi and then he turned furious knowing about Tarun. Abhi was also one of the HATE TARUN SQUAD. Later after talking for a while we hung up. Hurried I ran a hand through my hair. Removing my coat I packed my stuffs when I was interuppted by another knock, on opening the door I found all the kids in the Hospital standing there, a sweet little girl pulled me on my knees, she applied a bit of yellow colour on my cheeks wishing me a happy holi. I smiled at her and returned the favour. All the others kids followed the suite making my day Laughing I got up ruffling their hair when someone applied colour on my cheeks again. Instantly I looked up to a grinning Abhi.

''Abhi_ you, _New york _ here.'' I tried making a coherrant sentence at which I failed miserably.
sensing my confusion he pulled me in a hug. I squealed once everything settled in my mind.
Laughing he picked my bag pulling me with him towards the parking. On the ride back he informed how Kavya wasn't happy there, the reason why they returned for good.
Abhi even opined that I should tell Kabir aboout all this but I straight away declined. On reaching the mansion I turned more confident against telling him about it when I found him laughing and enjoying as if on cue he turned towards me. He walked towards me smirking with colour in his hand. Laughing i made a run to the opposite side only to crash into my brother. Before I could dodge him he held my hands as Tara smeared colour over my face much to my husbands pleasure. Soon enough I was the favourite target for the day. I was running away from Arjun and Kashish when Kabir held me by my wrist pulling me closer holding my shoulders. I sheirked and as if on cue Meera maa, papa and my parents turned buckets filled with water over drenching us completely. Both of us laughed loudly as we too ran towards the terrace to our family.

Throughout the function I avoided eating anything as I was very well aware about the antics of my brother and my husband. I was sure shot positive that they had definately mixed bhaang with Thandai and sweets. And I was so right, the laughter of almost all the boys and Anya proved me right. Somehow I managed to get all the elders to rest, onnce all the guests retired all of the young clan settled down in the colourful lawn yes colourful as they did not let the helpers clean it. Abhi, Arjun, Zayn, Anya, Kashish, even Tara and not to forget even Kabir was drunk. Thankfully I had Kavya sober.
I was trying to get Kashish in control while Kavya was handling Abhi practically slapping him to get him back to consciousness, when Anya strangely stood up and walked towards the boufet counter where there were fruits kept, She picked up a pineapple and a knife kept aside and sliced the top of the pineapple. I rushed towards her pulling the knife away instantly she grabbed a spoon and started scooping the pineapple.

"What are you doing Anya?" I asked her simultaneously trying to stop her.

"I am looking out for spongebob.!" She exclaimed. Hearing this Kavya started laughing and pulled her phone out ready to record the scene. Smirking I turned back to Anya who was busy looking out for her spongebob.
"Who Spongebob and why are you looking for him in a pineapple?" I questioned.

"Don't you know he lives in a pineapple now let me find him." She said getting back to her search.

"But why are you looking for him?" Kavya asked controlling her laugh.

"Because he is my first love. He is so cute and so yellow!!" She exclaimed happily.

"NOOOOOOO!!!!" A drunk Zayn screamed while I and Kavya started laughing loudly.
"What is your problem now?'' Kavya asked containing her laugh.

"How can she love someone else?" he shouted. "I am her lawfully wedded husband." He stated simultaneously following a fake sob. I and Kavya were practically laughing in hysterics. He pulled the pineapple from Anya throwing it at a good distance.
Anya looked at Zayn angrily and an angry Anya wasn't fun at all. She angrily turned towards Zayn stomping her feet, "Why would you do that?" She asked Zayn.

"Because I love You and I want you to only love me not a piece of yellow sponge." He cried. "Awww." Anya cooed hugging him while I and Kavya gave each other an are you serious look. For once we thought that we were done with the drama part but we were totally wrong. After the heartfelt confession of Zayn, Arjun took over to continue the drama. Stumbling he stood on the table he was sitting.

"Even I want to confess something. " he shouted having everyone's undivided attention.

"Even I love someone, but she is too dumb to understand." He sighed. Just to have some more fun Kavya asked him who the girl is. The only thing I was dreading about.

"Arjun get down, right now. You'll fall down." Kashish shouted still in her drunk state. She looked angry or may be jealous. I smirked somewhat expecting it.

"I have already fallen, fallen in love with you." He shouted on top of his voice. Kavya gasped as I facepalmed myself.

"Did you call me Dumb?" Kashish asked loudly standing next to him on the table. I and Kavya looked at each other wide eyed and together looked at Kabir. But he was lost in some other thought, out of all the sane things he could do he decided to be the insane one. He stood up on his chair and shouted.
"Even I want to confess." He shouted.

"Shit." I cursed pulling him down.

"Jaan, lemme tell them how much I love you!" He shouted.

"I know that so that is enough okay!" I exclaimed pulling him with me but man he was heavy.

"No I need to tell everyone. " he countered, I Looked up at Kavya for help but My so called best friend was busy laughing her ass off with Abhi Remind me when did he get sober.
"Kabir do you love me?" I asked and he nodded. I smiled pulling him with motioning to come alongand for once he did as asked. I motioned Kavya and Abhito look after the rest of them. They nodded as Kabir accompanied me upstairs to our room. Once in our room, he blocked me between him and the door shutting it And instantly claiming my lips taking my breath away. Once breathless he pulled apart looking straight in my eyes , ''Had Enough?" he asked. "what?" I asked back. "Air." He answered back before kissing me again. I smiled in between the kiss as he picked me up walking to our bed, placing me there in the most fragile manner, hovering me above. He bent closer kissing the tip of my nose. Bridging the mere negligible gap he placed feather kiss behind my ear and whispered, "I love you" making me smile to the fullest. He continued his trail leaving kisses on my neckline and leaving a love bite at thr joint making me hiss. As if something struck him he kissed my cheek falling on my bed to my right and pulling me over him. He hugged me tight, somewhere i could sense insecurity in the hug but I couldn't question it as he fell asleep the very next minute.
