Malhotra's Mansion

Ahana served breakfast to Sameer and Virat. Virat said "Ahana.. Aarav ke room ka darwaza kholdo.. wo ab aisi harkat nahi karega"

"tumse better janti ho usko main.. kuch der band rahega akal tikhane aa jayegi" Ahana said as she was very angry with him for his behaviour.

Virat smiled "tumhe bhi ache se janta hun main.. 5 minute mein darwaza khologi aur wahi lad pyar karogi"

Ahana glared at him.. he shut his mouth and ate the breakfast silently.

"bhabhi please darwaza kholo na" they heard Aarav's pleading voice.

But Ahana replied "nahi khulega.."

Aarav banged the door with his foot and then sat down on the bed with a sad face keeping his hands on his cheeks. He eyed towards the door and shouted "I am dulha bhabhi aur dulhe toh aise qaid nahi karte"

He was loud enough Ahana heard him and smiled "tumhare jaisa desperate dulha ho toh karna padta hai" she shouted back in the same tone.

Aarav sneezed few times, Ahana immediately rushed to his room and unlocked the door.

Aarav was rubbing his nose which had turned red. She sighed, she went to the drawer and gave him medicine "aur jao bahar bheego ho gaya na jukham" she taunted him.

Aarav made face and hugged her from behind "meri pyari bhabhi jaane do na please aur waise bhi main kaunsa rule toda hai jo aap aur bhiaya nahi kar paaye maine kar liya"

She was confused, she pulled him in front "kya??" she asked

"bhabhi.. aapki shaadi ke waqt main itna bhi chota nhi tha ki mujhe kuch yaad na ho.." he said winking at her.

Ahana recalled...

During Vihana's engagement, Virat wanted to take Ahana for a long drive but Sameer strictly denied.

Virat signalled Ahana but she refused. He showed his eyes and went out of the house. After 10 minutes Ahana came out "Virat.. kya hai??"

"what?? tumhare saath thoda time spend karna hai chalo" he said opening the door.

Ahana smiled and sat inside the car. He dozes off, after 5 minutes his phone rings and it was Sameer calling he picked up the call "yes Dad... no Ahana mere saath nahi hai"

Just then they heard a voice "Dad bhaiya jhooth bol rahe hai bhabhi toh bhaiya ke paas hi hai"

Virat pressed the brake and stopped the car with a jerk. Virat and Ahana looked back and found Aarav sitting behind with a smile on his face.

Virat gave him a look 'what are you doing here Aarav??"

He said innocently "aapko bahar aate dekha.. toh aapke peeche peeche aa gaya ice cream jo khani thi mujhe"

"no ice cream for you.. sare plan ki vaat lagadi tumne" he scolded Aarav.

Aarav made a crying face, Ahana melted and said "kyu daant rahe ho bechare ko bacha hai abhi samne hi ice-cream parlour hai waha chalo"

Virat eyed her "what?? hum dono jaane wale they.. ye kabab mein haddi nahi" he argued with her.

"haww.. tumhe sharam nhi aati apne chote bhai ko aise kehte hue.." she scolded him.

Aarav giggeled "bhaiya ko daant padi.. hamesha mujhe daante hai" he added oil into the fire.

"aajse nahi daatega..." Ahana said.

Virat passed a fake smile to her, Virat gave up as there is no point of arguing and bought ice cream for Aarav then he headed back home as Aarav spoilt his plan.

Ahana burst out laughing recalling the incident.

She slapped his cheek "iss baar jaane de rahi hun dubara aisa nahi karna shaadi tak milna nhi matlab milna nahi" she said giving him one last chance

Aarav nodded with a smile "yes boss"

Ahana moved out of the room, she saw Virat and Sameer doing some preparation for Tilak ceremony tomorrow.

Decorators arrive and Ahana guided them on what to be done. She wanted everything to be perfect.

Singhania Villa

Manvi's Pov
Last night incident made everyone angry and it was justified. None were talking to me which angered me.

I ran behind Ruhana "Di suno na"

She instructed one of the decorators "ye lights hall mei lagana aur ye bahar"

And headed towards the room where everyone was sitting down and doing preparations for tomorrow.

I frowned "Di...." I said loudly.

She turned and glanced at me "kyaa hai??"

"sorryy na...." I apologized..

She ignored and joined them.

"Khushi ye uss box mein rakho this for Ahana" She said.

I sat down on the couch crossing my arms around my chest as no one is ready to listen to me.

"Khushi chalo room mein jaake kal ke dresses nikalte hai" Avni spoke wiht excitment

Khushi and Avni went upstairs. I followed them, I entered the room. Avni asked, "maasi aap yahan kar rahi ho?"

"Di aur jiju baat nhi kar rahe hai mujhse.. toh socha tum dono se baat karlun" I replied.

Khushi giggled "mumma aapne galti ki hai na toh ab bhugto aap"

I gave her a look "chup.. raho tum"

"Are mujhe kyun daant rahi ho?" Khushi asked.

Avni and Khushi signalled to each other and I understood their intentions. I decided to just leave the room, but they were fast.

Avni blocked my way and asked "batao kaha gaye they aap? kya kya kiya AM ke saath haan?"

"haa.. bolo mumma" Khushi joined.

"kuch khas nhi just humne pani puri khayi bhutta khaya.." I replied with a smile on my face.

Then after a few seconds, I noticed their expressions, they were staring at me with an open mouth.

"What??"

She shook her head in no and asked "Aur kya hua?"

"kuch nhi tum dono pareshan mat karo mujhe" I said irritatedly.

Khushi then showed me a picture "ye dekho... kaise aap aur dost aankh mein aankh daalke baatein kar rahe ho.. akele mein bhi yahi kiya?" she asked.

I was shocked, I glanced at her "ye picture kab liya tumne?"

"kyun batau" She winked at me.

"photo do" I tried to snatch the photo but she ran away. I followed her downstairs "khushi photo de"

She climbed on the couch lifting her hand "nhi dungi.."

"Khushi.." I shouted.

"kya ho raha hai ye?" I heard Ruhana's voice.

"Di dekho na isko photo nhi de rahi hai" I complained.

Khushi jumped down and hide behind Ruhana "dekho maasi kitna mast pose hai dono ka... "

She showed her the picture. Ruhana eyed at the picture and smiled "Acha pose hai.."

"urghh.. DI aap bhi.. mujhe baat hi nhi karni hai kisise" I stamped my foot in anger.

"toh mat karo na.. chup chap jaake room mein baitho bahut kaam hai ghar mein" Ruhana said strictly.

I silently went upstairs as there is no point of arguing with anyone as none will listen to me. My phone buzzed, I glanced at it.

"I want to meet you right now"

I sighed and replied "no... tumhari ek bhi baat nahi sunne wali hun main shaadi tak apni shakal bhi mat dikhana mujhe..." and threw my phone on the bed.

Aarav was shocked with the reply. "how mean.. ab toh iska jawab milke hi dunga huh.."

The day passed, the next morning everyone got ready to leave for Aarav's house for Tilak Ceremony.

I glanced at Khushi, she was not yet ready to leave. I glanced at her and asked "Khushi tum ready nahi hui ab tak?"

She denied "main nahi jaa rahi hun"

"kyun?" I was surprised by her answer as she was the one who is most excited about this wedding ceremonies.

"mumma.. meri wajah se wahan phirse koi kuch bol na de.. and I don't want every ritual to get spoil" she spoke with a smile on her face.

I understand her state of mind. No matter how hard she tries to be mature but at last she is just 14-year-old teenager.

"tumne hi kaha tha na.. we have to face all this then why are you running hmm?" I asked.

"mumma.. I am not just I don't want things to go wrong" she replied.

Before I could say something she said "Aur mujhe iss baare mein koi baat nahi karni hai maine Avni di bade papa ko bol diya hai already I will be with you"

I did not force her and let it go. She was hurt because of the accusation, that she is responsible for her father death or there was something else she was trying to hide.

I made her sit on bed and aksed "kya naat hai Khushi? tum sirf kal ki baat se toh aaj jaane se mana nahi kar sakti ho"

"nothing mumma" she replied looking away.

"mujhse jhooth mat bolo.. bata kya baat hui hai?" I asked.

Suddenly, she began to cry and hugged me tightly. I caressed her head and was concerned "Khushi.. kya hua?? please bata mujhe"

She told me something to which I was left totally shocked and angered.

Third POV

Ruhana, Vineet and Avni reached Aarav's house for the ceremony. Aarav questioned why Khushi did not come along Avni made an excuse to which Aarav was convinced.

Everything went on smoothly and there was a smile on everyone's face.

Here Khushi slept on Manvi's arm while crying. Manvi kissed her forehead and tears dropped down her eyes.

After some time, she wiped her tears and dialled someone's number.

"aapse milna hai.. aaj hi" she spoke and disconnected the call.

To be continued..
