CHAPTER 2: FIRST TALK

Pooja 's pov

" ladke waale aagaye" , vidya said

chachi made my saree pleats again properly

I was so nervous

chachi looked at me and understood that I was nervous

"nervous ho ", she asked

I nodded my head

She smiled and hugged me

"Mai bhi aisi hi nervous thi, it's normal", she said and tried to calm me down

Radhika ran towards the window" vidya , amrita jaldi aao " she said

All of them rushed towards the window

"oh my god jeej is looking so hot", they said and looked at me, I rushed towards them but they blocked my way

"Move aside", I said

"kyu itni jaldi kya hai", Radhika teased

"please hato na", I requested

They didn't listen to me and continued to tease me

" kyu sataa rahe ho bacchi ko, chachi said

"chachi jeej is so so so hot omg", vidya said while moving aside unknowingly, I tried to take the advantage and went towards the window but I couldn't see anyone

" andar aa gaye", vidya said and laughed loudly

mom came and asked me to come , we all went towards the down stairs

mom and chachi held me protectively, while helper of our house placed a chai tray in my hand, my friends were helping me while walking down , I was wearing saree for the first time so I was uncomfortable with it

my heart beat increased in each step I was crossing down

I could see some pair of eyes staring at me as I kept my concentration on the chai tray I was holding, but those intense look was making me nervous

I got down from the stairs and there I saw him from corner of my eyes, the man in suit, looking absolutely hot

Vidya who was beside me said " I told you he is so hot "

I blushed listening to her

My hand started shivering, I somehow managed and kept the chai tray on the table

I knew Aditya's family very well, they used to visit us often, so immediately bowed down and took ashirvaad of aditya's mom, she kissed me on my forehead, I went to take ashirvaad of Aditya 's father and my beloved uncle, when I was about to bow down he stopped me said " beti ho meri aur betiya paau nahi chuti " , I got emotional and hugged him

Aditya's mom introduced me to Aditya 's bade maa and papa, I took their blessing, badi maa hugged me lovingly

Vinati ran towards me hugged me and said " Pooja di you look gorgeous "

vinati was just like my small sis, we shared a great sisterly bond with each other

Aditya 's mom came towards me and took me towards the person who was continuously looking at me and making me feel nervous, my heart beat increased

She made me sit beside him , and he directly looked at me so intensely forgetting that there were so many people around us who were watching us, his constant gaze on me was making my heart weak

vinati came towards us and started the convo

Vinati introduced Aditya 's friends to me

bhabhi, "ye vinay hai, aur ye manoj bhai's best friends "

"hello bhabs i hope you don't mind me calling you this ", vinay said

I smiled and said hello

"hello bhabhi", manoj too greeted

" and she is manoj bhaiya's wife malini" ,malini sat down beside me and hugged me

"bahut khubsurat ho tum", she complimented

Aditya was looking at us, his stares made me look at him

We both looked at each other for a while, he smiled and unknowingly I reciprocated to his gesture and smiled back

Ahem ahem, vidya said loudly which brought our attention back to people who were staring at us

hume tho introduce hi nahi karaaya jiju se, vidya said and came towards us

" hello jiju i am vidya", she said

aditya gave her a warm smile and said " hi "

"she is radhika and she is amrita, we three are best friends cum sisters,your saalis" ,she said

"oh I see, nice meeting you all" , aditya said

Aditya looked at me again making me feel his intense gaze,he slowly moved closer to me , my heart beat increased, I looked at him , our eyes locked again

"i think we should give them some time alone to talk", Aditya 's dad suggested by looking at us which made me blush

" there is separate sitting arrangement made for the bride and groom in the balcony" , dad replied

Aditya got up immediately and I was sitting and trying to control my heart beat

"pooja jaao beta" , dad said

I got up and we both walked towards the balcony, as we kept walking together his gaze was still on me, making me nervous and breathless

There were two chairs kept already for us , we both sat down down opposite to each other

I kept looking down while he was just staring at me without even blinking his eyes , I didn't know what to speak, shaayad Aditya ko bhi samaj nahi aa raha tha ki kya baat kare , I kept playing with my fingers which I always do when I am nervous

"you look gorgeous", he said finally breaking the silence between us

I blushed without looking at him and said " thank you "

There was again an awkward silence between us and his gaze was making my heart burst out from my chest, I couldn't handle it anymore and said

" aap mujhe nervous kar rahe ho , aisa lag raha hai jaise I am giving my viva exam "

He laughed a little which made me look at him

" I am sorry, if I made you feel uncomfortable " , he said

" aap sorry mat boliye wo bas I just got nervous " I replied

" you can call me by my name Or address me as tum, aap sounds like mai bahut budda hoon nai? " he said raising his one eyebrow looking at me with a little smile on his face

" I thought I am supposed to address you as aap because you are going to be my husband.. I stopped in between and looked at him, he was already looking at me making me blush

" we are going to be same in this relationship, agar aap mujhe aap bulaaoge tho mai bhi wahi bulaaoga, husband and wife should hold the same respect for each other, he said

his words touched my heart and soul, I smiled and looked at him for the first time without any hesitation, his words won my heart already, he just told the fact but this gave me the assurance that he is the one for me

We kept looking at each other in silence, he got up from his chair and came towards me, as he came towards me and sat down on his knees close to my chair, I got up immediately

and asked nervously ' aap neeche kyu baith rahe ho? "

" baitho " , he said

I sat down slowly on the chair in front of him

he took a small box from the pocket of his suit and looked at me

He gave the box to me

" ye kya hai " I asked in confusion

"open it " he said

I took the box from his hand and opened it slowly

It was a simple gold bracelet

"this is so pretty ", I said by taking it out of the box

" I am glad you liked it" , he replied

"but iski koi zarurat nahi thi",I said

" zarurat kyu nahi thi pehli baar apni hone waali wife se milne aaya hoon aise khaali haath thodi aata" , he said which made me blush as I looked down hiding my face hiding my blush

I gave the bracelet to him ,he looked at me in confusion

I forwarded my hand to him, he smiled looking at me, he held my hand slowly which made me shiver because of his touch which didn't go unnoticed by him and he smiled looking at his affect on me already

he slowly placed the bracelet on my wrist " it is looking so gorgeous on you " he said, looking at me without leaving my hand , I looked at him in confusion, his gaze was intense and sharp which was making me crazy

He slowly moved his face towards my wrist where he placed the bracelet, he kissed on the bracelet making me shiver and making me loose my control as I moaned his name for the first time " Aditya "
