Author's pov

It was next evening after Abhimanyu said Yes for Marriage, The Whole Rathore Family was Super excited, they told singhanias about this marriage proposal. While On the Other Hand Unknown to This Marriage Proposal Ridhima stood Infront of the Hospital she works at, Waiting for an Auto when her Phone Starts Ringing. She takes out her phone from her Purse, and Saw it was Mr. Singhania Calling her.

"Khamma Ghani kaka." She said as She picked the call.

"Ghani Khamma, Aapki Shift Khatam Ho Gayi Beta?"

(Are you

done with your Work Beta?)

"Ji kaka, Sab Theek toh hai na?"

Ridhima asked as She stopped an Auto. (Ji kaka, Is everything Alright?)

"Yes beta, Everything is good. Actually me and you kaki have to Discuss something with you, Can you come home?"

"Okay Kaka, Hum Singhania Mansion hi aa Jaye hain." Ridhima said and gave Singhania Mansion's Address to the Auto-rickshaw Driver.

(I will come to Singhania Mansion)

'Aisa kya kaam hoga'

(What does Kaka have?)

"Kaka, Kaki." Ridhima Said as She walked inside the Mansion, her Anklets Making Melodious sound. She entered the Living room and saw Mr. & Mrs. Singhania Settled on the Couch.

"Ridhima bacche, Come na." Ridhima nodded and walked to the Couch and settled on the Side Chair.

"How was your day Bacche?"

"My day was good Kaki, Btw Kaka sa what was the Important thing you wanted to discuss?"

"Ridhima, beta kal Humare pass aapke liye ek Rishta aaya. Aapko yaad hai Rathores Jinse aap Amara ki Shaadi mein Mili Thi. Unhone Apne Bade Bete Abhimanyu ka Rishta Bheja Hai Aapke liye." Ridhima didn't knew what to say, She looked at Both Of Her kaka and Kaki. trving to tell them that Shedoesn't really know how to Answer.

(Ridhima beta, Yesterday I got a Marriage Proposal for you. You remember Rathores, you met them in Amara's Wedding. They sent Marriage Proposal for you, With their Elder Son Abhimanyu)

"Kaka, I.. I don't know What to say. I

mean.

...

"Beta for me you are like my own Daughter, I know I don't have any right to make any decision for you but I hope you will listen to me and Give my Words a Thought." Ridhima still didn't said anything, Mrs. Singhania held her hand.

"Ridhi, Bacche do you like someone else?" Ridhima looked at her and Shook her head.

"Nahi Kaki sa, it's not like I have someone in my life its just." Ridhima said and looked down, mrs. singhania nodded at her to continue. (No Kaki sa)

"Um, okay. If you think abhimanyu ji is good for me then i will surely meet him." Ridhima said and Mr. singhania called Rathores and informed them about Their decision. Families decided to meet a day after tomorrow.

Ridhima spend sometime with them at singhania mansion before she went back to her apartment.

RIDHIMA

I was standing in my balcony, the cold breeze touching skin making me shiver a little. I closed my eyes as a Sigh left my lips, I am meeting Rathores Tomorrow. They are my soon to be In laws, I really don't know What to feel about it.

I mean All the Rathores are so good, Specially Aradhana Aunty, and Adhira. Even Abhimanyu was nice but A little Intimidating but Nice. When I met them at Amara's wedding, I didn't thought I will meet them this early that too in this situation. But I am backing off, If Kaka and Kaki thinks He is the right person for me then They must have thought something.Maybe Rathores will be the family I have always Craved for, Maybe Abhimanyu will be the person whom I will call mine.

I heard the ring of my phone and turned around to see Amara have texted me, I talked to her for sometime and Then Decided to go to sleep with whole day roaming around my head.

[Next Morning]

This morning I got up with My mind filled with All the Thoughts of Rathores, Marriage Proposal, Work and God knows how many things. I got ready in a Simple Kurti and Pants, and first did my Pooja, before Walking to my vanity to wear my Earrings but I think I again left my earrings at some other place Instead of the Earring Box.

I walked to my Desk and Picked my Books Keeping them aside and saw my Earrings laying there on the Opened book, I knew it hehe. I wore my earrings before Walking Out of my apartment and making my way to Hospital.As I reached Hospital, I got busy with the Patients. My Pateints are Normally The One with Anxiety Issues, And Some with OCD. These Disorders might seem smaller to Someone but the One who is Suffering from them Knows how difficult They are to cope up with. The day went By with the Counseling sessions.

Finally Once I got Free from my Work, I made my way to the Taxi, and Settled in Plugging in my earplugs. I reached home in around 30-35 minutes as usual, I first went to my room and Got Fresh, and then cooked myself some Nice Maggie. Okay, No matter if I am a Doctor or not, If Maggie is Healthy or not, But Still it's Going To be my favourite.

After I was done with my Dinner, and washing dishes, I took a Glass of Water and walked to the Balcony. Letting my Mind go to the Topic I have been Avoiding since morning. Abhimanyu

The Only words that were Exchanged between us were, Sorry & thank you from my side and You should be More Careful from his side That's it. But Still it feels like He said so many things.Like he captured my soul, Like.. I don't know. I don't even know if He said yes for marriage, I mean what if His Family is forcing him?

I have never felt like this Before, Maybe it's because of the Marriage Proposal, Maybe that's why I am thinking too much about him. Nodding at my Thoughts even after knowing they are false I went to bed since Tomorrow is the Day I will be Meeting Rathores and him.

[Next Morning]

Last night, I didn't slept properly. I am wide awake Since 4 am, you can call it Nervousness, I just don't know what To name this Feeling. I am excited to meet all of them, but I am nervous too. I looked at myself in mirror, I have decided to wear a saree today. Checking My apperance Atleast Two Three Times. I finally Stepped out of the Room.

After a Few minutes, Rohit Bhai sa

and Family came to Pick me up, We Decided to Drive to Ajmer. This is my first time Going to Ajmer, I so wanted to visit earlier but Never got a Chance and now that I am going there I am so nervous that I don't think I will be Able to Look around Ajmer.

After a few hours we all were Standing infront of This Beautiful Haveli, I have literally scene this Haveli online on Google but I swear it's much more Prettier in Real. I took a Deep breath as We walked inside Following the Maid who came to attend us, My palms are Literally turning sweaty.

"Don't be nervous Ridhi." Kaki said, I passed her a Smile and nodded. We all walked inside the Living Room and At the Same time A Very Familiar voice was Heard.

"Aa gyi humari hone wali bahu" I looked at Aradhna Aunty and Passed her a Big smile before I bend to touch her feet but she stopped me In middle and hugged me Instead.

(Here is my soon to be Daughter in law)

I touched all the Elders' feet and Hugged Avinash and Adhira, Who had a Big smile on their Faces as we sat in the Living Room. The Living room was Much more Beautiful, Specially the Jhumar in Middle, It was so pretty. All the Elders were Talking about The Marriage Proposal, They told me about Abhimanyu saying yes to This Proposal Willingly asked me If I am okay with this Alliance, I literally had no Reason to say no, So I nodded. Although It

would have been nice if He would have been here.

Soon the elders talking about many different Things while Aradhna Aunty I mean Maa sa called Pandit ji to Come to Haveli.

"Aree, Baccho Go and Show your Soon to be Bhabhi ma haveli." Maa sa said, To which Adhira Jumped from her seat in Excitement.

( Kids, go and Show your Soon to be Bhabhi Around)

"Chaliye Jiji sa oh I mean to say Bhabhi Ma." She said and Held my hand and Started showing me around the Haveli, This Haveli is so big, Like Literally they have Everything here. Its like Dream Palace. She showed me Around the Haveli and Atlast Reached The Last Chamber.

"Now bhabhi ma this is Bhai sa's chamber." She Informed me before

we Entered in, and This is Literally the most beautiful part of Haveli, Ofcourse Hukum sa lives here, Hehe.

As We entered in there was a Mini Living Area, Which had many beautiful plants, Then We walked to the Room

Which She told me Belongs to Hukum

sa.

His Room is really very beautiful, It Also had an Attached Balcony through which we can Literally see the Beautiful Garden of Haveli.

But what I felt Odd was the Bar, Yes

there was a whole Mini bar in his

Room, I mean Bedroom mein Bar?? Weird.

We both Walked out of the Room

and Walked to the Other Side of His

Chamber Where there was a Beautiful Swing.

And infront of the Swing was a Miny Swimming pool, Which was very Beautifully Designed.

As Our Tour was Coming to an End, I have Literally fallen in love with this Chamber, But I think the Most Important and Beautiful thing was Still to be seen.

Adhira took me to his Office Plus Library which was so beautiful, God I am so glad I am getting married to him, now I can read all these books.

"Bhabhi ma this is where you to be Husband spend most of his time." I chuckled at her Comment and walked to the Book Shelf, Letting my fingers Feel the Books.

I looked at All the Books, when My eyes Stopped on one of them. I Remember kaka sa told me we will stay here for Two days to fix the Marriage Dates and All the Functions and all. I think I can Finish this Book Easily, But I can't Take This Book Without Permission I turned back to look at Adhira But She was Gone, Don't tell me She left me Alone here.

I took the Book from the Shelf and Walked to his Desk, I pulled out my Sticky note from my Bag along with my Pen and Wrote him a Note, with a Smiley and Walked out of the Library.

'hume aapki ek kitaab bahut pasand aayi... Toh hum usse apne sath le kar Jaa rhe hai.. jodhpur wapas jane se pehle de denge - Ridhima :)'

(I really liked a book of yours, So I am taking it with me. I will return it before going back to Jodhpur - Ridhima :) )

But I guess I came Wrong way cause This Time I just saw a Long corridor, Looking around I walked Through it.

I didn't really reached back to Living room or Garden, But I reached a

Beautiful place where I saw Two Peacocks, Such a Beautiful Scene. I walked a Little closer to them and Sat there with The Book in my Hands. I think I am going to Love it here...
