CHAPTER 7

Aahan and Anurag were present on the Mandap, waiting for their brides.

" These girls always take time to get ready" Anurag said.

Seeing his annoyed face, Aahan said " Abhi to tujhe shaddi nhi karni thi, ab itna betaab q ho rha."

" wo... ehehehe.. you know na" Anurag said showing his teeth.

They were busy with their gossip when pandit ji announced " Now, call the brides."

" Ji pandit ji" Aarti ji said and left to call the brides.

After 5 minutes they could hear the sound of Ghungroo with light music , adding perfection to their entry.

dholna ve, dholna ve

ranjhan mahi dholna

dholna ve, dholna ve

heer jogni dholna



It was Raavi's special request to play this song on her bridal entry

Everyone's attention shifted towards the stairs , both the brides were coming with Aarti ji and Rhea.

Aahan was staring at the stairs only. Many thoughts were revolving in his mind , his heartbeat was increasing with time .Today his years of penance were about to end. Barso se jo teri raah Dekhi hai, Aaj wo intezaar pura hone wala hai, shaddi ke baad tum meri hogi, sirf meri , He thought in his mind.

Ruhi's condition on the other side was equally unsettling. With each step towards the pavilion, her heart quickened its pace. Meri shaadi Anurag ji se ho rhi hai, lekin ye bechaini kyu , Mere man me baar baar Aahan ka khayal kyun aa rha Ruhi thought in her mind.

They came to mandap and sat beside their respective grooms. Unaware of what's actually gonna happen in mere future . The wedding began and pandit ji started his Mantras .

Exchange your garlands

Bride's sister will tie the knot

Stand up for pheres

Repeat Saat vachan after me

Put Mangalsutra around her neck

Apply Sindoor

Pandit ji was saying and they were following his instructions. The wedding was completed and pandit ji announced one again in loud voice " Shadi sampann hui , aaj se aap pati patni hai. Take blessings from your elders"

They were getting up from their place when Ruhi's feet stucked in her lehenga and she was about to fall , when two strong arms held her straight.

Why does his touch feels like Aahan? She thought In her mind.

This clumsy girl, can't even stand properly, He thought.

" Thanks" she said in low voice .

They went to their elders one by one and took their blessings.

On the other side, Rhea and sagar were looking around , here and there, as if they are searching for something.

" Hey, you guys, what are you looking for? " Sakshi said coming towards her.

" None of your business " Rhea said rudely

" come on Rhea di, we can tell her, after all she is team bride" Sagar said. " we are looking for their shoes" he added.

" Hawwww... cheaters... why didn't you tell me? I'm also your sister " Sakshi reacted.

" This sudden change in your behaviour... what's Cooking in your mind, " Rhea asked raising her eyebrow.

"if you are planning to destroy my bestfriend's happiness then forget about it, if anything happens , I'll definitely kill you." She continued.

" Nothing, I'm not planning anything, so you need not to worry. I'm team bride and also I have no grudges against Ruhi di . After all, she's my sister and also she is going to her in- laws now ." Sakshi said .

" Ok Ok now let's not waste our time and continue with our search " Sagar said looking at both of them.

" Yeah, I think I saw Manav behaving a little differently, " sakhi said.

" what do you mean?" Rhea questioned.

" I mean look at him , he's sitting there since the wedding started, I asked for the seat as my legs were paining but he clearly denied my request " Sakshi said pointing at Maanav, who was sitting in a chair , covered with white clothe.

" Hey guys, look under the chair, I think he hid them there" sagar said.

" yeah, you're right, but how are we gonna get them" Sakshi questioned.

" I have a brilliant idea, watch me kiddos. " Rhea said with an evil smirk on her face.

She went near Maanav and wishpered on his ear " My blouse dori is loose, can you come and tie it for me" and winked looking at him .

She held his hand and took him upstairs , Maanav followed her like fools. On the way , she signed sagar and sakshi showing her thumb up which meant everything is clear, go get it .

In the room, Rhea was standing in front of mirror and Maanav was tying her dori." It's done" Maanav said.

" Thanks " Rhea said and she was about to left when Maanav pulled her holding waist making their chest collide with each other. They were standing very close, there nose almost touching.

" You can't escape easily" Maanav said looking in her eyes.

" what if I do?" Rhea said with same intensity.

" You won't , you know I've started liking you." Maanav confessed.

" Well Mr. Junior Rajput, I very well know what kind of play boy you are, so these cheap tricks of your won't effect me" Rhea said and pushed him with force, making him fall on the floor and she went running downstairs.

" Your sins are adding up miss Rhea , I won't spare you" Maanav said running behind her.

Rhea went to Sagar " you got it?"

Sagar" yeah" and showed her shoes.

Rhea stood in a chair" Now now, everyone can I have your attention please" Rhea said addressing everyone.

Everyone's attention shifted towards Rhea , who was standing in the chair.

" What are you doing Rhea? Get down, you can fall and get hurt" Neel said with concern.

Ruhi got down " Now that you all are listening " she said and went near the newly wed couples " I have your shoes , both of yours and we want something I return " Rhea said in her demanding voice.

" You can happily keep that , we can buy millions of shoes like that" Maanav said sarcastically.

" Is your name Aahan or Anurag?" Rhea questioned with a smile.

" No" Maanav asked in confusion.

" Then why are you replying" Rhea said maintaining same sarcastic smile which she had earlier.

" Oh hello, I can't let you loot my innocent brothers. I'll protect them and make sure you don't get anything " Maanav said raising his voice.

" Ok then , your brothers can go without their shoes and without their wives too" Rhea said and folded her hands keeping them near chest.

" Are you stupid ? They are married now. Who are you to decide whether they will go or not?" Maanav said pointing his finger at Rhea.

" I'm their bestfriend so yeah I have every right over them,so I can decide" Rhea said .

Everyone was enjoying their cat fight and smiling.

" You, I'm not-" Maanav was saying when he got interrupted by Aahan " Stop it you both" He was glaring at Maanav which made him quiet.

" What do you want?" Aahan said looking at Rhea.

" 50k only" Rhea said .

" you... we're not giving you a penny" Maanav said . As he was about to say something else , he saw Aahan giving a platinum card to Rhea. His mouth was wide open now .

" Here, keep it. You can use this whenever you want " Aahan said.

Everyone was awestruck, They were looking at Aahan as if he committed any crime.

" No no, I can't keep it, It's much more than what I asked for " Rhea said with hesitation.

" Beta, this is just a game between Jija and saali ( groom and bride's sister or bridesmaid), give her what she's asking for and nothing else." Deepa ji said .

" You leave it Aahan , I have some cash" Anurag said and looked at his assistant who gave him a bundle od 2000 notes.

" Keep it , and Don't say no . Consider it as a gift from both of us" Anurag looked at Rhea and smiled.

" Thanks".Rhea took the money and gave it to sagar, then she bowed down, cleaned the shoes with her dupatta and give them back to wear it.

" If my bestfriends shed a single tear because of you, then it will not be good for you , Inke ek aansu ke badle tumhare 10 aansu, hamesha yaad rakhna " She said threatening them.

Everyone started laughing at her words.

" Chalo ab baaki ki rasmein kar le, fir vidai ka waqt bhi hone wala hai" Aarti ji said and everyone agreed to her and started preparing for vidai.
