The beautiful city of Delhi...was hustling bustling with the daily rush of lakhs of people, who were either going out to work, or for jogging...The vendors were already out on the streets setting up their shops for their daily work......Children were standing on the bus stops waiting for their buses to go to school.......In all, everyone was busy getting their day started...but away from all this, a girl was sleeping carelessly in her room......The sunlight was being blocked by the thick curtains.....But due to the wind, they were moving here and there.....The girl sleeping carelessly till now, turned to the other side groaning, when the sunlight fell on her face....

Girl: Arghhhhh....What the hell.....

Just then the door to her room flung open, and came inside a middle aged woman, dressed in a long kurti and plazo pants with a servant behind her holding a tray of juice.....The lady came and sat beside the girl and gesturing the servant the keep the tray and leave.....Once the servant left, she removed the blanket from the young girl's face and it is revealed to be Preeti.....

Bela: Beta...Preeti uth jaa naa....

Preeti: Kya h mummy sone do naa....

And saying this Preeti turned her face and slept again keeping the pillow on her face......Bela sighed and again tried to wake up her adamant daughter...

Bela: Beta...please uth jaa dekh vo log aaj aane waale hain.....mujhe aur b bahot kaam h....

Preeti got up with a jerk....and sat up straight.....

Bela: Thank god beta ki tu uth gyi...ab jaa...jaake ready ho jaa....

Preeti: Kya yrr mummy...is it necessary?

Bela: Obviously.....

Preeti: Fine...but I am just doing it for you and dad.....are we clear? If I don't like him...

Before she could continue, Bela chipped in between.....

Bela: You will say no..I know it...But what's the problem? You have known him since childhood...

Preeti: Yeah and he was 350 pounds...What'd you expect?

Bela laughed hearing her daughter's rants....

Bela: Hahahhahhahha...beta abhi vo waisa nii h.....just meet him once....ok? No pressure to say yes......

Preeti: Ok...But where's Naina?

Bela: Tu hi bata kahan hogi?

Preeti slapped her forehead.....

Preeti: Jb se India aayi h, pagal ho gyi h ye ldki.....

Bela: Hahahahaha tum dono behenein hi pagal ho.....Ek bachpan k basis p ldke ko judge krti h..aur doosri bhn apne Papa k saath baith k hindi newspaper padhne ki practice krti h.....

Preeti: Haan aur roz Indian attire k dresses pehen k ghumti h....at times even overdressed......

The both mother daughter duo laughed......

Bela: Subah se poora kitchen sir p utha rakha h isne....bechaari kanta kaki pareshaan ho gyi h.....

Preeti: Hahahahahha lekin kyu?

Bela: Kehti h..meri Di k liye aaj rishta aa raa h..everyting should be perfect.....

Preeti: Pagal h poori....

Bela: Haan...jiji b aisi hi thi....

Saying this Bela's eyes got a bit moist...Preeti hugged her mother...

Preeti: You ok?

Bela: Haan...chal jaa tu ready ho jaa...mai jaake dekhti hu neeche...kahin kaanta kaki kaam chhod k naa bhaag jaayein....teri laadli behen k chakkar mei......

They both laughed and patting her head, Bela left from there......And Preeti went towards the washroom to get done with her morning chores......

Bela came down and found her younger daughter running here and there and pissing all the servants away...though they all were smiling and following all her instructions happily...as she had been always sweet and respectful towards all of them.....

Bela was fondly looking at her daughter, reminiscing about her late sister, when her trance broke hearing Naina's voice, and found her sitting on the floor holding her leg...with eyes closed....She rushed towards her...and just then Anand too came running to check on his daughter.......

Anand: Naina...tu theek h naa bachcha?

Bela: Kya zaroorat thi itna bhaag daud krne ki? Sb ho jayega naa....

Naina opened her eyes and looked at her parents and smiled widely......

Naina: Is that even possible? Aaj meri Di ka itna important day h...I won't leave any stone unturned....

Anand smiled at her cute antics, while Bela slapped her forehead a little. 

Bela: Ek dum buddhu h...ab lg gyi naa?

Naina gave a cheeky smile to her and spoke more enthusiastically.....

Naina: Ye chhote mote ch....what's that? 

Anand: Hahahaha chot..that means injuries....

Naina: Yeah exactly what dad said...can't stop me.....

Naina tried to get up, but there was still some pain, which was easily visible to both Bela and Anand....but she immediately covered it up with her beautiful smile......

Anand: Beta thoda rest krne se kuchh nii hoga....C'mon get some rest....

Naina: No ways dad....Abhi to bahot kaam h....vo sweets...and also the decoration and also...vo...

Bela: Aaj bas vo log milne aa re hain..teri bhn ko...shaadi krne nii....Achha ek kaam kr...teri di k room Mei jaa..and help her get ready....and mai breakfast wahin bhijwaati hu....Ok?

Naina thought for a minute and then finally agreed....giving a breadth of relief to her parents...

Naina: Ok...even that's very important.....

And then Naina went to Preeti's room..limping... 

Bela: Thank god maan gyi...

Anand: Haan ab Preeti hi smbhalegi ise..chalo tum inka breakfast bhj do...I'll check with them ki when they are reaching here.....

Bela: Sure...

And Bela went to the kitchen, while Anand went out to check up on the guests......

Preeti had just stepped out of the bathroom, after taking her bath, she came out only in her bathrobe, when she saw Naina coming inside the room and she was limping slightly..Preeti rushed towards her and holding her hand made her sit on the bed...

Preeti: (worriedly) Ye kya hua Naina?

Naina: Kuchh b nii di..vo to bas mai gir gyi....

Preeti: Apna dhyaan kyu nii rakhti h Naina?

Naina held her ears and made a puppy face....

Naina: Sorry Di...please gussa mt ho naa....

Preeti held her hands and bring it down...

Preeti: Chal ab ro mt.....

Naina: Hehehehe bilkul nii.....

Preeti: Apna dhyaan rakha kr please....

Naina: I promise ab poora dhyaan rakhungi....Achha ye sb chhodo and tell me what are you planning to wear?

Preeti: Pata nii smjh nii aa raa...I mean I know I'll have to wear something Indian..but not sure what to wear.....

Naina: Ruko mai dekhti hu..

She was about to get up, but Preeti again made her sit back....

Preeti: Yahin baith..mai dikhaati hu......

Just then Bela came with a servant holding the tray of breakfast and instructing the girls to have it first and also telling Preeti in gesture to take care of Naina, she left from there......

While the girls were busy in getting ready and making preparations.....here in other part of the city, a man was busy burning his calories while running on the treadmill......With an AirPod connected to his ear, he was also busy in shouting on his manager....

Man: What the heck do you think of yourself?

Manager: But Sir....

Man: Sir my foot.....mujhe vo patents chahiye to chahiye...smjhe tum....

Manager: Yyyy....yes...yes sir....

Man: Now get lost..jb tk kaam naa ho jaaye...don't show me your face....

Saying this the man disconnected the call and started running at a faster pace...He stopped only when he felt a tap on his shoulder...he turned angrily thinking it might be some servant.....but his expressions relaxed seeing an old man, and stopping the treadmill he steps down and touches his feet......

Man: Good morning Nanu....

Yes it was none other than Jai Prakash Maheshwari and the other one is Sameer.......Though Sameer never smiles at anyone, still he could never disrespect the elders of his family......Sameer gets up and Nanu hugs him with a wide smile.....

Nanu: Good morning mere sher.......Ho gaya workout? Chal ab jldi se ready ho jaa.....

Sameer: Haan bas abhi ready hoke nikal hi raa hu office k liye.....

Nanu: Hain Office?

Sameer: Obviously Nanu..I have an important meeting with my clients.....and also I've to discuss about the details for the annual fashion show.....

Nanu slapped his forehead....

Nanu: Are mai uske liye taiyaar hone ki baat nii krra.....

Sameer: Then?

Nanu: Are aaj Pandit k liye ldki dekhne jana h...vo Prabha k bhai k koi dost hain..London k..abhi kuchh waqt pehle hi yahan shift huye hain...dono bachpan se saath padhe....unhi ki beti h..Preeti...use dekhne jana h...

Sameer: So what do I do in that? Mai wahan kya krunga? You guys carry on....

Nanu: Aise nii kehte beta...tu jante h naa....ki jb tk tu nii jayega Pandit koi decision nii lega.....apne bhai k liye hi chal le......

Sameer: But Nanu...

Before he could continue, a voice stopped him...and hearing the voice, both Nanu and Sameer turned...and found a young beautiful woman coming towards their way......

Nanu: Aa jaa Amrita...ab tu hi smjha skti h ise....

Yes it was none other than Amrita...Sameer's elder sister, and was above everyone for him....

Sameer: Nanu...aap Di ko mt bolo ab...

Amrita: Sonu...please...hum sb k liye...chalo naa...

Sameer: But Di...

Amrita: (pleadingly) Please Sonu.....

And there it goes....He can never say no to his sister....not even for once.....and he also knew how much Pandit loved him...he would never take a life decision in his absence...sighing he continued.....

Sameer: Hmm...Ok....Let's get done with this...but I am not gonna stay back for long....Ok?

Amrita & Nanu: Ok.....

Sameer shook his head in disbelief and went away from there...as and when he left, Nanu and Amrita gave a hi-fi to each other......

Nanu: Thank god maan gaya...

Amrita: Haan mujhe to laga tha ki aaj nii maanega.....

Nanu: Aisa kabhi hua h..ki teri baat naa maani ho usne....

Amrita: Haan...hua h naa Nanu.....

Nanu: Kb?

Amrita: Jb b shaadi ki baat krti hu tb.....

Amrita said with a sad pout and Nanu patted her head..and talking for some more minutes, they both left for their rooms to get ready.....

Here, Sameer came back to his room, and after getting done with his daily chores, he dressed up in a black three-piece suit...Well, all his suits were black only...but he could differentiate amongst them...(I am definitely being sarcastic here)

He went downstairs and joined his family for the breakfast....

Mami: By God..aa gaya Sonu beta....

Sameer: Good morning everyone......jii Mami...

Mama: Good morning Sonu beta....

Mundit: Good morning bhai.....

Kartik: Good morning Saale sahab.....

Nani: Good morning Sonu....

Mami: Chal baith tera breakfast ready h......

Mundit and Amrita rolled their eyes and Kartik tried hard to stop himself from laughing out loud in front of Sameer....While everyone were enjoying scrumptious breakfast, Sameer as always had his juice and plain toast....According to him this is the best breakfast and all other things are unhealthy......Once done, they all moved to their cars and drove towards Aggarwal residence......

Here after deciding what Preeti will wear...Naina was getting restless to go down and see to all the decorations and preparations by herself...But Preeti wasn't even letting her get up......When Preeti went inside the closet, to change her dress....finding the right chance, Naina sneaked out of the room.....

As she stepped down, she saw a servant trying to fix up a flower arch on one of the pillars......Just then she heard a car honk from the outside and also saw her parents already standing there, confirming that the guests have arrived......She rushed ahead, completely forgetting about her sprained leg and stood up on a stool to fix the other one, to complete the look........

She was standing near the corner and that too on top of the stool, hence no one noticed her and the entire Maheshwari clan entered and started to settle down......Sameer was the last one to enter as he stayed back attending a call from his PA...and while walking he was busy on his phone, and didn't realize that he had pushed the stool on which Naina was standing, and due to sudden push, the stool moved from its place and Naina lost her balance......

She closed her eyes due the fear of falling down and crashing against the hard marble floor....but instead she felt like she was hanging in the air......She opened her eyes slowly and found herself in the arms of a really handsome man....

Hey everyone, So here's the first chapter.......I'm not sure how it has come out to be.....As already mentioned, I cannot get the right frame of mind to write...but had to start from somewhere.....so here it goes...Please let me know your views in the comments below.....
