Niyati's pov

Pouring the coffee in the cups, I walked towards my parents room.

As today is Sunday, Mom and Dad will be at home. My Dad, Parthiv Sehgal is a Haematologist and my Mom ,Sadhika Sehgal is a cardiologist by profession. So it is very obvious that they are  very busy due to their profession. I am also in this medical field but the difference is that I am a professor --dermatology professor to be exact.
Sundays are usually free for them and I cherish these Sundays the most as I get to spend time with my parents. Otherwise everyday they leave for 7 am and come home around 8pm and if it is a very lucky day then earlier than 8pm.

“Good morning,” I greeted them in a chirpy way as I entered their room. Dad and Mom were already sitting on the balcony. As soon as they saw me, they greeted me back, “Good morning, Sunshine. Thank you so much for the coffee.” My mom said and took the coffee.
“ Come and have a seat.”, Dad said and made me sit in front of them.
Three of us enjoyed our coffee . Yes, you can call us mad because we can have coffee in deadly summer as well. Well, it's a black coffee.

“Two of you talk, I am making breakfast today.” Dad said as he got up.

“Dad, no. It's your holiday. I will make it.” I was about to get up but Mom and Dad both stopped me. “Niyati, let me make it. It's been ages since he had made something.Let's see if he still can cook or not.” Mom said to Dad. I didn't miss the teasing glint in her eyes.

“So it's a challenge. Hmmm…get ready with your gift ,Sweetheart because I am going to win your heart the way I did years ago.” Dad said with a wink. Mom rolled her eyes but one could easily see her red cheeks and sweet shy smile on the corner of her lips.
I giggled seeing their love filled interaction.

They are my favourite couple. The love, the understanding, the patience, the trust and most importantly the loyalty they have for each other ; the way they never shy away from expressing their love for each other and the way they support each other in every way make me feel the luckiest to have parents like them.

I hope Avyaan and I will have exactly the same bond as my parents have with each other.

“Mom, I am going. Do I need to bring something while coming back?” I asked as I walked towards the hall where Mom was sitting while checking some files.
“No beta. You go and enjoy it.” Mom said with a smile and she looked up, “Wow ,you are looking cute and smart.”
I smiled shyly. I was wearing a neon sleeveless top paired with brown trousers.

Niyati's look

“Thank you, Mom. I will be home by 6 pm.” Saying this I hugged her from behind. I wanted to stay at home so much to spend some time with my parents because it's only Sundays when we could spend the whole day with each other. But I couldn't do anything. Anyways, saying bye to my parents I left my flat.

As soon as I reached the ground floor by the elevator, the car was waiting for me.  I smiled and walked towards it.
But my smile flattered a bit when I saw the driver waiting for me.
“Maybe Avyaan is inside.” I thought to myself.
“Good noon, Mam.” The driver greeted me and opened the backdoor of the car.
I looked inside to see it empty. I frowned.
“Sir told me to drop by the Jewellery shop.” The driver said. I nodded with a small smile and got inside.
“Don't be sad ,Niyu. Maybe he has some important work.” My mind said to me. I nodded in agreement.

Within half an hour, I reached there and walked inside. A smile came on my lips as soon as I spotted him there.
Avyaan stood up from the chair and walked towards me with a smile. He looked cool in a yellow t-shirt and black jeans.

Avyaan

“My man looked handsome in casuals.” I internally squealed.
“Hey, let's go. Pehle Yeh important kaam ho Jaye.. phir nikal te Haise yahan se,(Let's do this important work fast…then we will leave from here.)” He said to me and I nodded.
“Good noon, Sir and Madam. What can we do for you?” The salesgirl asked us.
“Show us some engagement rings for the bride and groom.” Avyaan said in an authoritative voice.

Yes, as our engagement is within a few days, the elders decided that it would be best if me and Avyaan bought the rings together.

Soon the display of the rings started. We were looking at the rings when Avyaan's phone rang.
“Niyati, just excuse me for a minute.  You check it . I will be back.” Saying that he left, I shrugged.

Soon my eyes caught a beautiful pair of rings which were a couple-rings set.
“Did you like something?”
“Yes, this one pair.” Saying this I looked to my right to see Avyaan who had already come back. But my smile went away when I saw him clenching his jaw and anger was visible in his eyes. He was looking in front of him.
“Avyaan.” I touched his arm.
He looked at me and then at the design.
“Niyati, it's too simple. Come on, you are marrying me..obviously you need to wear something which would scream that you are the wife of the Avyaan Malhotra. Because  my wife deserves the best. Come on, let me select.” Avyaan said .
I just shook my head,rolling my eyes with a smile.

Soon he chose a large diamond ring for me and also for him.
“Pack these two and the bill will be under my name.” Avyaan said.
I shook my head and said, “Please do the bill for the groom's ring under my name.”
Avyaan was about to stop me but I said, “It's always from the bride's side so don't stop me. It's a ritual.” He nodded with a shrug.

After completing everything we came out of the showroom.
“Niyati ,you sit inside the car. I am coming after a few minutes just wait.” He said to me as soon as I sat inside his car.
“But where? why?” I asked him in confusion.
“Need to deal with something important.” Saying this he went back to the showroom, leaving me in a confused state.

“Why is he not coming back till now?” I murmured to myself and was about to dial his number when the door of the driver's seat opened and Avyaan got settled down.
I gasped seeing his messed up t-shirt and hair. He looked furious.
“What..What happened?” I asked him with my heart literally jumping in my chest.

“I did what I should have done. How dare he? how could he look at someone who is mine with those eyes?” He said through gritted teeth.
“What?” I asked him as I was unable to understand what he meant by that.
“He was looking at you. Actually it was you who did wrong in the first place. Why did you wear this Top? That bastard was looking at your cleavage when you were checking the rings. Why did you wear this kind of dress?” He asked him in anger and punched his fist on the steering wheel, furiously .
I looked down at myself. I was wearing a decent dress. Yes the cut around the chest was a little down but overall it was a decent dress.

I tried to make him understand, “If someone is looking at me like a creep then it is their problem, not mine. I…”
Before I could completely explain myself, he said, “Come on. Let's go. Let me drop you at home. I can't bear it.”
I looked at him in shock.
“What do you mean? What about our date?” I asked him ,trying hard to keep my emotions in control.
“Next time when you want to go on a date , wear clothes like a decent human being, not like this.” He said and drove his car towards my home.
I didn't argue. I just couldn't as I knew that nothing would change. Maybe I shouldn't have worn this dress.

I looked outside the window and unknowingly a tear rolled down my cheek.

Saanvika’s Pov

I was roaming around the shopping mall.

Today is Sunday and luckily it's a holiday. So I have decided to visit a shopping mall. My best friend is getting engaged just in a few days so I decided to buy a gift for her.

Saanvika’s look

I entered inside the watch showroom and started to check the couple watches.

I know Niyati likes watches . So what would be better than to give her one on her special day?

Suddenly someone caught my eyes which made me smile.

There Sathvik was standing and watching a watch very attentively. He was looking dashing in his casual look.

I walked towards him and patted his back lightly. Startled, he turned and sighed as soon as he spotted me.

“You…what's up?” He asked .
“I am fine. But what are you doing here?” I asked him,  calming down  my nerves which was all over the places.

“ I was just passing by but this beauty caught my attention. “ He said while pointing at a beautiful ladies watch.

“Hmm..nice choice. But whom are you buying for ? Someone special ?” I asked him although the thought left a bitter taste in my mouth.

“ No no. I am happy that I don't have to bear anyone's tantrum. But you know my parents, they won't leave me until I get married . So for future purposes, to be on the safe side. “ He said with a wink.
Unknowingly I felt my cheeks warming up.

“Okay bye. See you.” He said to me and walked towards the counter.

“Bye.” I whispered to myself.

Yes, I like him. I don't know how and when but I have started to fall in love with him. But I never got the courage to tell him as I didn't want to destroy the basic friendship which I had with him.

But hopefully I will  be proposing to him soon. Otherwise somebody will take him away from me and I won't be able to do anything.

No no, Saanvika, you need to do something. That is also as soon as possible.

How's the chapter ?
Let me know.

Next update will be soon.
