KABIR :

Its been two days , since that event. I have taken her no. But haven't texted anything.. After returning that night , the next morning the whole family was behind me literally torturing me....

Flashback:

I was getting ready for the office. It was almost 5 days since I went on spot. Though Shreyas was handling all the work but still some paperwork is there which needs my attention. I went downstairs and sat in the dining table. Everyone was talking before and when I came, there was pin drop silence.

Something is up..!!

I asked taking a sip of my coffee , " what happened?? Why did you guys stop ?" ...

Mumma cleared her throat and started asking me , " Do you like Naina ?"..

I choked on my coffee , and started coughing... Mumma came near me and started rubbing on my back.... Abhi was giggling and clapping.....

This is too much...!!

I was saying , " what the f..!" when

suddenly bhabhi glared at me and mom said , " Kabir!! How many times I have to say , Don't curse in front of Abhi !!"

" Okay !! I am sorry!!. But from where is this liking coming ? ... I mean are you guys mad !!" I ended ....

"No we are not mad... we are perfectly fine you know... It was you who was dancing and laughing adorably with Naina... I mean you guys were looking so good together... I think you guys should date...!!" Bhabhi ended like it was no big deal.

My eyeballs would pop out anytime now from the socket..

Then mumma said excitedly , " Hayee!! Kinni soni lagegi in dono ki jodi!!! ( How beautiful would they look together) ... mera bas chale toh in dono ki toh main abhi shaadi karwa doon ( If my will goes then I would like to marry them this instant)".. Everyone present in the dining table started discussing my non - existent wedding...

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK DUDE!!!

"Guys Stop it!!!!!" I shouted and the whole table again was pin drop silence....

"I and Naina are just friends !!!! There is nothing else between us . So stop discussing about my marriage. When the time will be correct I will get married..." I ended in my bossy tone.

" Toh you don't like her.." Mumma asked me.

.
"Mumma from where is this coming from ?" I replied.

" If you don't like her its okay... I can understand... " she said and we started eating..

I thought how come mumma be so cool with it !! But I was wrong !! After few minutes she said to papa but she was indicating to me , " You know Aunty (Ammu) is looking for a suitable boy for Naina.... I was thinking of suggesting Sahil's name.. The heir of Raichand groups... They are looking for their daughter -in - law..."

My eyes snapped towards her.

"what are you saying mumma !! How can you suggest his name.... He is a playboy for God's sake... And why will she marry him !!" I was in fire literally , imagining her with someone else made my blood boil....

" Stop doing matchmaking guys... Its too much...!!" I said and left for my office....

Present:

Author's pov:

It was currently 10 at night. Kabir was working on his laptop . Suddenly his phone pinged with notification. The message was from Shreyas. He opened it and saw a bunch of pictures from their engagement. All the pictures were of his and Naina's. The way they both were looking into their eyes, it seems like they were lost in each other. Kabir couldn't figure out what he was feeling right now. There were so much emotions which he was feeling. He has stopped listening to his heart a long time ago. He has become mechanical. He didn't want to accept what he was feeling, also he cannot see Naina with someone else. The mere thought of her with someone else made him mad. His heart and his mind were running in two different directions. At one point in his life "Marriage love" these words held much importance to him. But now he runs away from them.

KABIR:

I haven't talked with her from yesterday.
It was lunch time. Bhabhi came with the lunch. I was sitting with my laptop opened in front of me. Only bhabhi and my family members have the permission to come inside without knocking. I was somewhere deep in thoughts. Bhabhi came and kept her hands in my shoulders. She said , " Kabir where are you lost ? I am calling you for last 5 minutes. ?"

" I am sorry bhabhi.. Its just... nothing.. let's have lunch." I said.

" we will have our lunch, but tell me at first what are you thinking ?" she said.

"Its nothing .. its just Mumma is going overboard about my marriage... She is trying to fix it with someone whom I know for what a week !! And not just me she is also trying to fix her marriage with that fucking Raichand If I say a no.... what is this bhabhi... she is so innocent, that Raichand will make her life a fucking hell.. he changes girls like napkins. I mean in that party he was literally eyeraping her. Mumma knows everything still she is foing this.." I said huffing in anger. I rambled out.

Bhabi was smiling and soon it turned into a full blown laughter.

"What is so funny in this bhabhi ?" I asked getting irritated..

"Look at you ... you said that you don't want to get married. I get that... but what is your problem when Naina is getting married. I mean she can get settled with anyone. Why is it erking you ?" she said controlling her laugh.

Well what is my god damn problem !!

" She said, look cheeku stop overthinking. Let me tell you a story. When I was in my high school I was in a relationship with a guy. You know I used to dream about our future and all. But he broke my heart. Then I met your bhaiya, you know I was sure that I would never wver fall in love with someone again. I swore to myself. But look at us now. We are married and now have a baby. You don't know Kabir what future holds in store for you. The more you will avoid your feelings , the more you will feel dejected. " she said.
" You avoiding the truth will not change anything, in fact it will complicate things. No one will get you married without your wish. The final call will be yours. And about Naina getting married , mumma was joking with you. But it is true that her grandmaa is looking for a suitable boy. Someone will marry her definitely not that Raichand boy. But someone definitely will. " she said getting serious.

I was silent. Is it possible to like someone by seeing for three times ? I don't know maybe I am overthinking.

We ended our lunch with small talks. After that discussion with bhabhi I was feeling light. I don't know what was between me and Naina. But there was something about her which attracted me.

I went home in the evening. I came to know that mumma has arranged a mini get together and Naina & ammu are coming. To be honest I was excited .

I retired to my room after dinner. Suddenly a thought struck my mind. I decided to text
her.I sent a " Good night 🙂" then immediately deleted it.

. I don't know what happened maybe she will think of me as a pervert.

I was going to work on my laptop when suddenly my phone pinged , "I have seen the message. You were late deleting it. Good night to you too.😆" I blushed... I was feeling like a fool .

"Okayyy!!😅😅.. Hope you are coming tomorrow!" I replied immediately... trying to hide my embarrassment.

"yeah!! Of course !! Aunty called me so lovingly. I will definitely come.." she replied

" Okay see you tomorrow.. Good night. 🙃🙃" I replied

. She replied , " good night".
I saw the text. Work was far away from me. I slipped inside my duvet , after few minutes I was out...
















NAINA:

I was currently going home from the hospital. I was struck in the traffic. Sometimes I feel that I should leave everything go somewhere else where it will be peace. Today's day was hectic as I was on leave there was much workload.
Ammu has been constantly asking me about Kabir. I don't know what to reply. We just met. We are friends that's it .... There is nothing more than that...

Is it? My subconscious mocked...

I don't know.. ..... I don't know what happens to me when he is near me... My heartbeat accelerates... his cinnamon flavoured cologne makes me feel dizzy.... When we danced , it felt so good. When he touched my bare waist , goosebumps erupted in my skin. Suddenly a thought crossed my mind..

Am I falling for him...??!!!

No ! No! No! It can't happen.... I cannot love anyone else... Its just my hormones ...... It will pass away.... He is just a friend. Suddenly I can hear that the cars which were behind me started honking ...... The traffic light went green , immediately I ignited the engine and drove towards home.

When I entered I saw Ammu was sitting in the dining room and talking with someone. She said , " okayyy! Okayyy! She is here you tell herself.." , then she handed me the phone. I asked her in sign that who is it. She told me it is Pallavi aunty. I then received the call and asked , "Hello aunty !! How are you?"
"I am fine bachhe.. how are you? Was it a hectic day ?" she asked. I was shocked , how come she knows that my day was hectic..

"How do you know that aunty ? Yes I had a very busy schedule today. " I ended

" Maa hu beta sab janti hoon, your voice sounds tired. (I am a mother , I know everything). Achha have your dinner and sleep quickly okay. I will talk to you later." She said. I smiled at her motherly concern.

I said ," No aunty you tell na. I am fine. Its normal."
"okay ! I was asking that if you could join us for dinner tomorrow. Everyone will be there. I have invited Nisha and Shreyas also. Please don't say a no.. I will be waiting for you.." she said

There was no scope that I could refuse her. A part of me was excited and another part wanted to refuse it. Going there means I will be seeing him. I cannot refuse aunty also.

She invited me so lovingly. " Hello Naina ?? Are you there ? " she said. " yes aunty!! I will be there . Don't worry.." I replied.
"Okay beta goodnight! See you tomorrow!" she said . I replied and hung up the call.

Ammu was grinning at me. I asked , "what !! Why are you smiling ?"

" Nothing ! It will be so fun tomorrow at the get together." She said excitedly.

I chuckled and went to my room. I hopped into the shower. Warm water doing wonders in my body. After coming out I changed into my pajama shorts and tank top and went for dinner. After dinner I slipped inside the duvet. Suddenly my phone pinged and it was a text from Kabir . It said " Good night 🙂".
Suddenly within a second the message was deleted. I chuckled.

Then I sent " I have seen the message. You were late deleting it. Good night to you too.😆 " I pressed the sent button.

Next my phone pinged within a minute "Okayyy!!😅😅.. Hope you are coming tomorrow!"

"yeah!! Of course !! Aunty called me so lovingly. I will definitely come.." I sent.

" Okay see you tomorrow.. Good night. 🙃🙃"

the message read. I replied a good night and the next moment the text was marked as seen. I turned off the phone.
I turned off the lamp and soon sleep engulfed me.

Hi guys!! here is the 6th chapter...

Love you all!!
