Bandana's POV
I was about to hug Sumedh when he awkwardly looked around, making me aware of the surroundings. Embarassed by my move, I looked down and took a couple of steps backwards.

The girls in the hall giggled. "Oye hoyee!!" Some of them whistled.

"Mujhe dulha hone wali feeling kyu aa rhi hai?" He whispered getting close to my ear.

"Chalo ladkio, khana khaalo aake" Aarushi's mother said. Some girls went to have dinner while some stayed in the hall, Aarushi went to her room and Sameeksha went somewhere, I guess with Rohit.

I held Sumedh's wrist and took him behind a pillar. "Dekha, aana hi pada na" I said with a proud smile. "Yeh raha tumhara phone, bye!" He said giving me the mobile phone.

"Arey, ek minute!" I said holding his hand. A couple of girls were passing, Sumedh made me stand by the pillar and got a bit close to me.

"Kya faiyda? Un dono ne mujhe dekh lia! Ab kya sochengi?" I asked. "Unhone ladki ko dekha, Bandana ko nhi!" He replied. "Whatever" I said rolling my eyes.

"Aap kahi nhi jaa rahe" I said. "Me yaha kya kru?" He asked. "Shaadi ke functions attend karie hamare saath" I said as matter of fact. "Dekho Uncle..." He said but I interrupted him, "ek to aapke Uncle ne jaan le rakhi hai sabki! Wait..." I took a pause, "woh to do weeks ke lie Assam jaane wale the na?" I asked. "Ehmm..." He started looking for an excuse.

I widened my eyes. "Sumedh apne jhooth bola hamse! Matlab aapka mann hi nhi tha aane ka?" I asked. "I didn't expect this from you! Mann nhi hai na, to jaiye wapas. Phone laane ke lie thanks aur sorry aapko takleef uthani padi" I said hiding my tears. I started walking from there.

"Bandana..." He said and pinned me against the pillar. "Esa nhi hai ke mera mann nhi tha" He said. "Nhi it's okay" I said and tried to push him. "Listen na..." He said holding my hands, "its's just that...ab...kese samjhau me tumhe" He said giving up.

"Koi baat nhi Sumedh, I can understand" I said as a tear dropped from my eye. He sighed. "I'm sorry" He said hugging me. I hugged him back and cried my heart out. That hug was so comfortable that none of us wanted to break it.

Sameeksha's POV
I was sitting on a bench in the garden. Rohit was laying, resting his head on my lap. I was caressing his hair when finally he broke the silence.

"Naman naam kesa rahega?" He asked, his gaze fixed on the still stars. I gave him a confused look. "Umm, kiske lie?" I asked. "Arey hamara beta!" He asked looking at me. I cocked my eyebrow. "Ohkay, yeh kab hua?" I asked.

"Abhi kaha hua! Hoga! Shaadi ke baad hoga na" He replied. "Ho geyi to?" I asked. "Tab to Tara..." He said. I smiled. He's too sweet. I decided to tease him.

"Wait...kiski shaadi? Uhh, you mean hamari? Lololololol" I said. "Sameeksha, please yaar, sapne mat todo mere" He said cutely. "Ese sapne dekhne hi nhi chahiye" I said. He made a sad face.

"Propose to abhi takk tumne mujhe kia nhi hai! Naman naam kesa rahega..." I said mimicking his voice. "Haan to ab kar deta hu!" He said sitting straight.

"So..." He said taking my hand in his and sitting on his knee. "Wait...mujhe kisi bhoot se propose nhi hona" I said standing up. "Me bhoot nhi hu" He said with a crying face. I hid my chuckle.
