Mahir's POV

I hate haldi...it's very disgusting. Mom and yuvi just pour all over me. I groan rubbing haldi from the past 15 minutes but my skin isn't coming back to its normal color. Aren't every product nowadays is fake then why this haldi isn't wearing off...oh yeah mom made it by hand. I could hear my phone ring from room so I take a bath first and came out.

I noticed it's my PA Arav's call. I called him back.

"Hello sir"

"What's the update?" I asked straight, because of all the stupid I can't go out after haldi I had taken two days holiday from office but I can't leave my work on hold.

"Sir that Mehta project, I talked to them...but they still insist on 50-50 profit."I take a deep breath to control my anger.

"Asked them if they can't be happy in 40, I can reduce it 30...I won't say again. They can't go forward with this project without me. Just tell them otherwise we'll cancel deal"

"Okay sir" I cut the call and take out my shirt and pant. I put my towel over its place to dry it and wear my clothes. I noticed my file wasn't in table I left...damm it! Who came to my room? I hate when my things weren't in place as I left. Then I noticed there was no file in room. What the heck?

"Mom" I came out, mom is talking with my distant Chachi when she came frowning at me.."if you are asking about your files so I moved it to your study room. Beta new bahu will come. What will she thinks seeing so many files and after marriage, you should work outside of your room" I pinch my nose to not shout.

"Ramesh Kaka"I called our kaka(worker) who came running..."put all my files in room back which was shifted. Just place them on the bed" after he left I look at mom.."I already told you mom I wasn't going to change anything. So stop all this and don't mess with my things ever" I noticed Dad is laughing but what is funny in it?

"You've become older than your father Mahir. You're just 29 for God's sake. If you work this much, you'll get wrinkles" I rolled my eyes hearing mom then notice Kaka going inside my room.

"Mom I had a video conference so don't disturb me" I ignore mom's scoffed and came to my room.."thanks kaka" he nodes and left...I sigh, I need to arrange them again. I put my files according to the need to them more earlier. After setting my table I take out my laptop..thank heaven mom didn't also put it away.

It took 2 hours for the conference to end. After that, I ordered my PA to mail me documents of some other projects whom I had to watched over.

I was noticing my email when I get a text on phone...I frown seeing a text from Yuvi..why he's texting from another room. I gape when I noticed that picture.

Bloody hell. I will kill that rat.

He sends me the comments I get for that stupid picture. Because mom insists I agreed to click a picture but I warn Yuvi to never post it anywhere. That brat never listing. Doesn't he had any works? He completes his graduation but all he was doing roaming around cities. I hate these lazy type people, who don't work anything.

I again pinch my nose to control not to go at him.

"Aww so cute".

"Yellow dog my friend"

"Finally marrying. Hayy! Poor girl"

Why I even had friends, these comments Yuvi send me were all from my college buddy, yeah one of my business partners also, Avinash Verma...that bastard called me a dog. I turn off my phone to focus on work. I usually don't do any social media, only had an Instagram account which my friend opened for me 4 years ago but I never used it.

Sehgal Industry is more important for me to handle, the working dad did, I wanted to make him proud. I wanted our company to reach top 3 and open an international branch outside of India. So all these dreams are very important to me. I never wanted to fall into this marriage drama but somehow mom emotionally blackmails me.

Then I thought of Vishakha whom mom select for me. We only meet once then after saw each other in functions only. I didn't remember talking to her, but when I meet her...I noticed she's a very mature, sensible, and great doctor. A perfect wife. I could try this relationship then!

"Mahir it's already 4, when are you gonna have lunch" mom yelled, outside is full of silly relatives who will keep asking stupid questions.."mom send it to room" I replied but soon there is a knock. I should have known.

I open my door and mom glares at me.." people are asking through their eyes if you're even interested in this marriage. All-time working, only come in time of functions. You even didn't take Vishakha out as I asked"

"Stop being an overdramatic mom. Just send me something light. I wasn't hungry even. I had so many works still" she glare at me then left. Why would I take Vishakha out? We don't even know each other and all these are time-wasting stupid things.

Finally eating while working I smile satisfied. I'm done with this now. Now only the Gupta project then I can go out of room maybe. But it took me too long so it's dinner time. This time I came down, everyone whom I don't even remember clearly telling me not to work much, asking me about my soon-to-be wife, and trying to tease me. I just give a smile as mom was watching me.

Dad would always smirk seeing mom and my banter while Yuvi would always out or irritating someone. I just don't understand why people 'couple first night' making an issue as now this cousin of mine is saying. I was more worried someone would be in personal space, sex was the last thing I'm interested in. There was a time in college I thought about it but that's all I feel time-wasting, I should invest more time over work for a better future.

"Yuvi" I after dinner I called him, he smiles at me nervous.."Bhai that was dad's idea" I gritted my teeth, now dad also started.

"Delete that picture now"

"No Bhai, everyone already saw it. You know some of the employees from office. What's the point of delete when I'm sure everyone already takes screenshots" I glare at him.."Bhai it's already bad you're not coming for a bachelor night. So spare it. Please"

"You all are still partying?" I asked shocked, my all cousins had planned a party which I said was not interested yesterday already.

"Yes. We will enjoy it without the groom. As he's busy" I scoffed and left. Their party means drink which I hate. I came back to my room and open another file, damm tomorrow I won't be able to do anything and then that suhagraat drama, I need to finish my work today itself.

Just somehow all this marriage passed and I can go back to my office.
