Raghav and Nithya had their dinner along with the elders. It was a quiet affair without any disturbance, but they were unaware of the fact that it was the calmness before a storm.

After dinner, Aravind called everyone to the terrace without telling them any reason. They were curious about what's gonna happen there.

Raghav and Nithya were surprised to see the beautiful decorations on the terrace. There were yellow and white lights shining bright and seating arrangements for everyone.

Two chairs were kept in the middle for Raghav and Nithya. But they were opposite to each other, in a way that they could not face each other.

"What's this Sindhu?" Nithya asked curiously.

"Since you guys opted for a traditional wedding, we couldn't have a reception or sangeet before the wedding. So we planned for a small fun event here." Sindhu said with a grin.

Yazhini pulled her brother and Nithya towards the chair and made them sit.

"Then why are you making us sit like this?" Raghav asked, confused.

"Event is for you but fun is for us!" Shravan said, making him more confused.

"Before I explain this to you both about this, I need a small confirmation." Vicky said and turned towards Sharadha and Nithya's parents.

"Uncle and Aunties, even if these two didn't confess their love, you had the idea of getting them married right?" He asked them in a serious note.

They nodded their heads positively, not knowing the purpose of this question.

"Why are you asking about it now, Vicky?" Subash asked him.

"We are going to check out their compatibility now. If they don't answer correctly, then we'll assume that this is an arranged marriage of two strangers." Vicky explained the reason.

Raghav and Nithya gasped on hearing it.

"Do you guys think that we don't have compatibility?" Raghav asked in shock.

"We are just talking about the possibility, da. Okay, let's get into the game." Vicky told and went inside to bring the properties.

He brought four placards. Two had blue designs with Raghav's name and the other two had Nithya's name written in it. He handed one to each. Everyone got settled in their places.

Vicky was the host for the event.

"Shall we start the game? First round is going to be about easy questions. The rules are very simple. You should just raise the card and no discussion in between. " Vicky said and everyone clapped excitedly.

"All the best guys!" Sindhu cheered them.

"First question, who has a better fashion sense among you both?" Vicky asked.

Raghav and Nithya thought for a while and both of them lifted the blue card which had Raghav's name. The crowd cheered them.

"Woah great start!" Vicky appreciated it. "Who is a sleepyhead?"

Blue cards went up in unison, making everyone amazed.

"Who is a latecomer for dates or any meet-ups."

Raghav and Nithya showed the pink card. They turned to check out the other person's answers and chuckled at their chemistry.

"Hat-trick! Way to go guys." Sindhu cheered.

"Who is the chatterbox?"

Pink cards went up again.

"Who is more romantic?" Nithya raised the blue card first, then after some confusion Raghav also raised the blue card.

"Who is the smartest?"

Raghav raised the blue card and Nithya raised the pink one. Hearing the laughter from the crowd, they turned to each other and found the difference in the cards.

"I'm the smart one, because I write stories na.."

"That's right.. but I'm the smart one!"

"How?" Raghav asked her.

"See, when we both met at your house, I was the one who guessed that you're the techie, even before we interacted right?" Nithya said and Raghav thought about it.

"Yeah that's right. Nithya is the smartest!" Raghav agreed, making everyone chuckle.

"Who initiates for a date the most?" Vicky asked and both of them went into deep thought. As they both didn't raise the card, everyone got confused.

"What guys answer quickly!" Shravan told them..

"We haven't been for dates. That's why we didn't answer." Raghav informed and Nithya agreed to it.

"What? Are you both kidding?" Yazhini asked in shock.

"Yeah... We didn't go out for dates. We have gone out twice or thrice, but we also went with everyone." Nithya told them.

"Didn't I tell you all, that these two are not humans!" Anitha said to their gang.

"Done with your questions?" Raghav asked them.

"Yeah but we have a few rapid fire questions too." Sindhu said and came forward.

"Shall we turn around?" Nithya asked.

"Nithya, you are gonna live with him forever, why can't you wait for a few more minutes?" Anitha teased and Nithya blushed.

"Turn turn! We won't stop you anymore." Yazhini said with a wink.

They both turned and faced the relatives.

"So Raghav, you were the one who proposed to her right?" Sindhu asked him and he nodded curiously.

"You asked her to marry you right?"

"Yeah. Why are you beating around the bush, madam?"

"Wait my boy! Not many guys would directly ask to get married. But you did. Can we know the reason?"

"Yes yes. Even I want to know it." Sharadha, who was silently observing everything asked it.

"If something feels right we shouldn't postpone it. I've always practiced it in my life. The same happened here too. When i thought of Nithya, all I could imagine was a long happy life with her. That's why I didn't ask her to be my girlfriend, rather I asked her to marry me." Raghav said looking into Nithya's eyes and she held his hand tightly.

"And I guess, even if Nithya had proposed first, she'd have asked for the same." He added.

"Wow!! That's an awesome answer raghav!" She appreciated it.

"Now it's Nithya's turn." Vicky said.

"Same question or different question?"

"Ms Braine, your fiance answered on your behalf too. Now we have a different question for you!"

"Hehehe"

"What was your first impression when you met Raghav?" Sindhu asked her, as she was the cupid for their meeting.

"Actually... We both had a good rapport when I was in the US itself. But least did we expect that it will lead us to this point. In the same way we weren't that close for a meeting. But I was pretty sure that we would have eventually met one day. When we both started talking to each other in person, our friendship blossomed even stronger and merrier.

Coming to the first impression, when I met him, he was introduced to me as a good friend of Sindhu, who was ready to anything for his best friend. I was actually impressed on seeing it!" Nithya said, making Raghav's smile grow wider.

"What did you guys gift eachother first?"

"We both have given eachother only one gift. And it's a diary. " Raghav replied.

"What a diary???? Is that even a choice to gift your fiance???" Aravind asked Raghav.

"Haha but that diary is very close to our hearts no matter what! Even if we gift anything in future, that will remain the best of all." Nithya told confidently.

"Uff! Impossible." Yazhini sighed in disbelief.

"So that's the end of our Questionnaire. Thank you everyone." Vicky ended the session and everyone started to leave the terrace. But Nithya and Raghav stayed there, holding their hands and eyes locked.

To be continued.
