Ananya's POV:-
I got up next day at 8. I could hear someone shouting in living room. I did my bed correct and went to see what is going around. I reached the hall and saw that aunty is shouting at some servants. I went towards them.

"Aunty what happened?"I asked.

"This days servants are of no use, I told him to go to market yesterday to get sweets and then keep one box in each room for guest at hotel  but as asual if you don't remind them again and don't ask them again,  that work will be incomplete only", aunty said glaring at the servant.

"It's ok aunty calm down. Let me get ready and then I will go to market and then from there i will go to hotel. So don't take tension and it will be done on time don't worry ", I said.

"Thank you Ananya,you are always our saviour. May God give you all the happiness in life and you get evrything you desire",aunty said while keeping her hand on my head.

Aunty,  god can't give me what I desire the most but now I have learnt to be  happy with what I have..

I gave aunty a smile and then went to get ready. I came to the dinning area in half an hour and then had my breakfast.

"Aunty I am leaving now", I said.

"Wait Ananya, actually your uncle has sent driver for some urgent work so driver is not there,let's wait till he come back", aunty said.

"Where you want to go Ananya", came Armaan's voice from back.

Both I and aunty turned back.

"Ananya has to go to the sweet shop and from there to hotel for keeping all the box's in rooms but driver is not there so I told her to wait till he comes back", aunty said.

"Come I will come with you, as I am free now", Armaan said.

"Ok perfect", aunty said with a smile.

We both left to the sweet shop. As both of us love the silence while driving so we were listening to  the song  "pehla pehla pyaar hai" and enjoying the melody.

We reached the shop in half an hour and collected the sweets packets. Armaan went to the cash counter to pay the bill and workers kept the packets in our car.

I and Armaan went towards the car.

"Armaan can I tell you something", I told him hesitantly.

"Ofcourse Ananya tell na", Armaan said.

"Actually I love the biscuits of Garibh bakery so if you dont mind can we go there", I asked.

Armaan smiled and told me to get in the car. I am surprised as he didn't reply but just kept driving. Within 10 minutes we were in front of the bakery. We both got down and I happily went inside to take the biscuits I like. I told the shopkeeper to pack the biscuits and went to the cash counter to pay but before I could do that Armaan already paid.

"Uncle dont take money from him i will pay", I said to the shopkeeper.

"No uncle don't listen to her you take it", Armaan said.

No

Yes

No

Yes

"Both of you stop fighting like kids and girl let him pay , I believe when a girl is out with a guy and if they are couple then it's always a guys duty to pay and you both really look good with each other", uncle said.

"But uncle we are not couple we are just friends and so I can pay", I said.

"Ohh sorry I thought you are a couple never mind ok then I will take payment from you only then", uncle said.

I gave the money and then we came back to the car and took our seats.

"You are very stubborn Ananya", Armaan said.

"Well that I am", I said with a smile.

We reached the hotel in 10 minutes and then we took the trolly from the waiter and went towards the reception area.

"How may I help you sir", reciepsionist asked.

"Give me the keys of all rooms booked in the name of shah's and jain's", Armaan said.

"Right away sir", reciepsionist said.

She handed us the keys and then we went to the rooms to place the sweet box. We also saw  the preparations of each room for the final time whether all the necessary things are available or not so that no guest should face any problem.

It took us almost 2 hours to look after the arrangements.

"Ananya I am hungry so let's have lunch here itself", Armaan said.

"Ok"

We placed our order.

"Did you inform any of our friends that you are here in Jhodhpur",Armaan asked.

"No I didn't get the time but was thinking to tell them after going home today  so that I can come with them to the party", I said.

"Nice , no one knows that you are here let's give them a surprise and you are coming with me no more arguments", Armaan said.

"Ok ", I said with a smile and then we started with our lunch. We talked about many random things . We had many things in common and the time which I spent with him in this few days will always be special for me. We had our lunch and went back home.

"Armaan when will shristi and Neha arrive", i asked when we were going to Armaan's home.

"They will reach here by 5 and we will directly meet them in the paety", Armaan said.

"Ok , I am very excited to meet them ", I told him.

"Well that I can see , seems like you girls had a great time in Goa and really jelled up well with each other", Armaan said looking towards me with a smile.

"Yes we had a great time in Goa", I said.

He just smiled and continued driving. When we reached home it is already 3 so I thought of helping aunty with work. I have to go with Armaan to the party by 7 so I have plenty of time to get ready.

I helped aunty with the work and also in arranging her outfits for each function. We both had tea and snacks. I did some more time pass and then went to get ready. I am so excited to meet all my friends after a long time. I took a quick shower and wore a baby pink one piece. I did a bit of makeup and kept my hair open. To accessories my look I wore long earings and a neck piece with a braclet in one hand.

I got ready and went to hall and saw Armaan is ready and waiting for me. He looked extremely handsome in black jeans and white t-shirt with a leather jacket.

We went to his car and took our seats after bidding bye to aunty.

Till we reached the venue it is already 8 and we think that most of our friends are already present. We went inside and I could see most of the faces which were  shocked to see me.

"Ananya I can't believe you are here", Ashna said coming towards me.

I hugged her and then to all my other  friends.

" We didn't know that you and Armaan are still best friends and you are coming to his wedding ", kshitij said.

"Actually guys I am here from Rehana's side as she is my best friend", I said.

"What", everyone shouted in corus.

"Easy guys you will make me deaf", I said laughing.

After leaving from Jhodhpur I shifted to Banglore as you all know and then there I meet Rehana. We both instantly became friends and from then we are bestie.

"But Ananya you hurt me, you said you are Rehana's friend so you came to the wedding which means I am not your friend ", Armaan said with fake hurt.

"Stop your drama, drama queen", someone said from the door.

We all turned to that side and I saw Shristi and Neha standing there with two boys. All four came near us and then we greeted each other.

" So guts this are my friends shristi , Neha , Aman and Harsh", Armaan introduced them.

So guys let's enjoy the party. All started dancing and enjoying themselves. I am not so into dancing so I went and sat in an corner from where I could see all dancing. After some time my friends joined me and we started talking about our life's.

Party is going in full swing some are drinking, some are dancing , while some are just talking.

"Attention guys , as we all now today is the last day for Armaan to live his life according to himself and is the last chance for him to take his final decision regarding marriage so I would like to ask Mr.Armaan jain once again whether he is ready for this step in his life", kshitij asked.

"Yes bhai I am ready" Armaan said.

All of them present there started shouting and hooting.

"Please bring the cake and wish Armaan all the best for his new life", Himanshu said.

"Hey even we brought a cake", Aman said.

"Ok then let's make him cut both the cakes", is said.

👆 school friends cake

☝college friends cake

Armaan cut both the cakes and then feed it to all. Again all started dancing and this time even I joined them.

As it is already 10 so all started having dinner so that again we can enjoy for some more time.

At 11 everyone finished with dinner and again we all gathered in hall.

"Ananya we all are very happy to meet you after such a long time and today we are feeling that our group is complete", Bhavya said.

"Yes agreed", Khushboo said.

"But we don't know much about your life and about you so let's know you today ", Ashna said.

"Ok but what you want to know about me", I asked.

"Well we know about your and Rehana's friendship , about your school and college life but we don't know anything about your love life so tell us about your love life", Khushboo said.

"I don't have any love life", I said.

"Don't tell me a girl like you still single ? You didn't like anyone? Kshitij asked.

"Well yes I am single and ya I don't like anyone ", I said.

"Well then you atleast had crush on any guy in your life", Bhavya asked.

"Yes I had crush on a guy ",I said smiling.

"Then tell us the name of that special guy";Himanshu asked.

"If a girl and a boy are best friends then mostly a girls first crush will always be her boy best friend", I said.

"You mean your crush was Armaan", Shristi asked.

I looked at Armaan and could see that he was shocked listening to this. But sorry Armaan I can't lie .

I said yes and then all started laughing. We all talked for  Some more time and then left the place as we were getting late and from tomorrow all the functions will start.

Armaan was really quite from the time I made this revalation. We started to drive towards the home.

"Ananya it is true that you had crush on me", Armaan asked.

"Yes"

"Rehana know about this", Armaan asked.

"No she don't know about this and it really doesn't matter ",  I said.

"Hmm", he said.

"And may I know for how long you had crush on me ", Armaan asked.

"Till I got to know that you and Rehana love each other", as soon as I said this Armaan put a sudden break and car halt with a jerk.

"What ", Armaan shouted.

I started laughing seeing his condition.

"I got a heart attack and you are laughing. Never do that again in your life", Armaan said.

"And why you got heart attack knowing this", I asked.

"I thought I broke your heart by rejecting our marriage alliance and knowing that you had crush on me", Armaan said.

"It's nothing like that Armaan just chill I was just messing with you",I said.

How should I tell you Armaan that yes you broke my heart , you broke my dream of spending my life with you.

We reached his home and just retired to our rooms. From tomorrow there will be a new beginning in Armaan and Rehana life. I was not felling sleepy so I went to Armaan's room and took his guitar and went to terrace. Music is the only thing which gives me peace and take away the tensions.
