Chapter 23 - Secret Revealed & Happily Ever After
Dedicated to ALL MY LOVELY READERS
The night went peacefully for Arjun and sleepless for Radhika. Mala comes to her room and finds her sleeping in the floor, she wakes her up , "Choti, get up. It's late now. We just left with 3 hours and you are sleeping like a lady kumbhakaran. Get up"
Mala somehow managed to wake her up and gives her the accessories and dresses to wear and goes out saying, "Get refresh fast, the parlor girl is already waiting for you"
Radhika brushes her eyes and nods her head like a kid, she then widens her eyes recalling the yesterday's incident and getting tensed thinking, "God, what I am gonna do now? Will she really come today?"
She scratches her head and went inside the washroom to get ready for the marriage. She gets dressed beautifully at the same time elegant too. But her face doesn't reflect the same, she looks tensed and nervous, Mala comes there to check her, she gets overwhelmed seeing her but find her looking upset.
She cups her face, "Choti, what happened? Why you look upset?"
Radhika blinks, "Nothing Maa, am just tired"
Mala, "I know, are you feeling sad for leaving me right?"
Radhika rolls her eyes saying, "Maa, you joke at the wrong time, a bit but I know I can see you daily"
Mala pinches her cheeks, "I am pity for Nandhu now"
They both hear a voice from the door and it's from Nandhu, "No need Mala, I know my Radhika. She is a treasure for me and my family" she kisses on her forehead mumbling, "You look stunning". She turns to Mala saying, "Come, will take her down. Arjun is already there"
Radhika gets stumbled hearing Arjun's name, she hides her tension from them and walks out together. Once she out from the room, Neil appears in front of her with a broad smile and kiss on her forehead mumbling, "I am so happy for you chashni"
Radhika also hugs him tightly and replied, "Love you too Bhai"
Radhika's bridal wear and accessories:
Neil takes her hands in his and walks to the mandap with her. It takes quiet a time for them to reach at the venue which is decorated elegantly at their lawn.
Radhika is in dream looking at the decoration while walking to the mandap. Her heart is filled with joy and forget all the worries she had. She finds Arjun waiting for her with his usual charming smile, he raises his eyebrows looking at her and she replies him with her blush.
She keeps walking towards him but stops abruptly hearing a voice behind her , "Hi Arjun"
Her legs stops moving further and turns back to find who is calling her man and that too at this time. Her face becomes pale, and gets shocked to the extent she can by looking at the figure standing at the entrance of the way having an enchanting smile on her lips with a beautiful flowers on her hand.
She gulps hearing a whisper behind her and that's none other than from Arjun who mutters, "Sarah" looking at the girl walking towards him.
Radhika's head is spinning in all directions; she tightens her hold on her dress. The girl who is walking to him passes a sharp glare on Radhika and smirks looking at her.
Mere anger rose in her and it increased the flame when Arjun walking to her with a sort of confusion in his face. Everyone around there started gossiping seeing the scene there and he stops besides Radhika asking, "Sarah?" he stops in the middle and she continues, "Finally, I am here Arjun"
Arjun looks unconvinced still and she continues, "Looks Surprised or Shocked?"
Arjun, "Both"
Sarah, "I know, you should be"
Arjun, "By the way, how come you are here? And I thought you are out of country"
She started laughing at him and said, "What Arjun? You only asked me to meet you and now you are asking me why I am here?"
Arjun, "What are you saying?"
Sarah comes little closer to him, "I said what you told"
Arjun, "What I told?"
Sarah sighs, "You asked me to meet you and that too before your marriage"
Arjun looks at her confusingly whereas Radhika understand what she meant and her looks are changed while looking at Arjun who lost in deep thoughts.
Arjun, "But I don't remember that I met ..." he pauses for a second and his brightens up giving a tremor to Radhika, he take one step forward leaving Radhika behind him and asks her, "You mean to say...you are my"
Sarah cuts him off in the middle and said, "Secret Admirer"
Nandini comes to him holding his shoulder, "What's happening Arjun?"
Arjun with a smile and said, "I found my Admirer mom"
Nandini turns her look at Sarah, Radhika widens her eyes hearing his words and looks at them alternatively, her inner soul screams that she is his admirer but the truth sticks inside her mouth and not ready to open up.
Arjun looks at Radhika in the tip of his eyes, and move one more step closer to Sarah asking, "I...I don't know what to say and how to react. You know what; you just gave me the best gift for my life. I am so happy that finally you made it to meet me"
Sarah takes his hands in hers and look at Radhika once and said, "I wanted to meet you long time back Arjun, but the situation was not in my favor and it stopped me in meeting you. I should say that if I would have met you before, I am sure you will not be standing here alone" she pauses and moves close to his ears and husks, "but with me as my groom" she makes sure that it's audible to Radhika.
As expected, Radhika jerks listening her, her eyes becomes red in anger, she glares both of them and folds her fist tightly and is ready to kick her anytime.
She composes herself once and calls him slowly, "Arjun"
Arjun winks at Sarah and turns to see Radhika who is tensed, "What?"
Radhika, "I want to say something"
Arjun smirks before she sees him and said, "Say, I am waiting to hear"
Radhika stutters, "I...I think..."
Arjun, "You think?"
Rads gulp her fear and said, "I...think...she is not your admirer. She is lying"
Arjun narrows his eyes at her, "How can you be so sure?"
Rads, "Just a gut feeling. I am sure she is not"
Arjun, "How can I believe you Radhika, when she herself appears in front of me and admit that she is my admirer and she is the one who used to send the flowers"
Rads get irritated and with the same reaction on her face she replied, "Are you mad Arjun? How can you believe her so easily? If anyone else comes to you saying the same thing, will you trust them too?"
Arjun, "What you want to say?"
Rads, "I am saying that she is not your admirer"
Arjun, "I feel that she is saying the truth. I can see the truth in her eyes, the affection she has for me is visible in her eyes. And I think that you are getting an insecured feeling now, seeing her here"
Radhika opens her mouth wide in shock listening his statement; she looks at him angrily and said, "Why I feel insecured now? And that too by seeing her?"
Arjun, "I don't know but all your actions say the same thing"
Rads roll her eyes and is about to say something but Sarah interrupted her and said, "I think you are jealous"
Radhika, "What? Of?"
Sarah, "Of Me, jealous of our relation"
Rads, "Relation?"
Sarah, "Yes of course, I am his Admirer and he likes his admirer a lot, in turn it's me and thus makes you react like that"
Rads, "What nonsense? Do you think I believe your words? You know what? I personally know that you are lying...You are a big liar"
Arjun chuckles seeing the cat fight between and waiting for the right moment to get the truth from Radhika.
Sarah did not bother about anything and casually said, "That's your stupidity. Arjun knows that I am saying the truth"
Arjun, "I trust you Sarah and yes you know me better than anyone does"
Radhika looks him defeated, tears dwells on her cheeks and bite her lower lip to control her emotions. She consoles her and take breathe, turns to Arjun saying, "Arjun, trust me. She is not your admirer, she is cheating on you"
Arjun, "Why would she Radhika? She has no motive to cheat me"
Sarah, "Why should I cheat you Arjun? In fact, I came to see you and reveal my identity to you. I know you will be happy seeing your admirer in real and that's what I want. I want to see your smile, your happiness seeing me, finding me as your admirer. I know your love for me and I feel so sorry that she is feeling bad thinking whether you will move on with me...i mean with your admirer leaving her"
Radhika closes her eyes and ears shouting, "Just stop the nonsense, you bloody bi..." before she says that word, Arjun shuts her mouth by his hands and nods his head as NO warning her not to say anything more.
She blinks once at him and shoves his hands away from her and glares at Sarah who looks calm and smirks at her. She calms down and walks to Sarah who has a naughty smirk on her face looking at Radhika.
Rads, "Listen, I very well know you are not his admirer, don't try to cheat him and make him believe that. Just leave from here before I do something"
Sarah, "Oh is it? I am scared now" she gives a reaction as if getting scared of her and said, "Still I would say, you are afraid of me now and that's y not ready to accept the truth that I am his secret admirer whom he loves the most"
Rads, "Yes I know that he loves his secret admirer, but it's not you"
Sarah, "Oh, then who is that? Tell me if you know that person"
Rads, "No need to tell to you and just leave from here"
Arjun comes forward suddenly and said, "Radhika, you can't talk to her like this"
Rads, "Why I cannot? I can and I will"
Arjun, "I am warning you Radhika. You are insulting her which I don't like at all" he gives her a fake warning suppressing his laugh seeing the seriousness in her face.
Rad chokes, "You are warning me by supporting this liar. Arjun, don't believe her. She is a big liar"
Arjun, "Then you tell me who my admirer is if she is not the one"
Sarah, "She doesn't know Arjun. She is just trying to secure her place in your life just by blaming me"
Rads, "I am not blaming you bloody, I am telling the truth. You cannot be his admirer and YOU ARE NOT"
Sarah, "Just prove it, I have a proof to make him believe me I am his Secret admirer. Do you have something like that to prove me that I am not the one"
Rads fiddling her fingers in tension and Arjun come to her asking, "Tell me Radhika, and how are you so sure about that she is not my admirer?"
Rads looks at him with tears, "I know that Arjun but I can't tell how and I don't have any proof. You have to believe me Arjun"
Arjun in his mind, "Stubborn girl, after all this chaos also you are not opening your mouth and admit the truth. This is my last chance, I will make you spit the truth now" by thinking like this he goes to Sarah and asks, "What proofs do you have?"
Sarah, "I can tell from the start, when i sent the flowers to you and what flowers I sent. I sent you the Red roses bouquet on the first day with a quote "Fresh flowers for a fresh new day" you remember?"
Arjun nods his head, Radhika looks at her shockingly and Sarah continues, "And you were trying to get my details, you came to the shop and enquired about me, you ordered flowers and left as it is. I took them on behalf of you and sent you the same flowers. Remember?"
Arjun looks at Radhika and nods his head towards Sarah, Radhika's heart beat is rising up to the maximum speed hearing her words.
Sarah, "And I sent a message to you to find me on the Business party, I challenged you to find me but you didn't. In fact I danced with you on that day and you were searching me everywhere else, and you..."
Her words stopped in between hearing a scream from Radhika who closes her ears tightly shouting, "ENOUGH"
She opens her eyes with tears rolling on her cheeks and shouts again, "ENOUGH OF YOUR LIES"
Sarah, "Lies? How can you tell without any proof?"
Rads, "Because I very well know that you are the not one who sent the flowers and messages to him, and you are the not one who danced with him"
Sarah, "NO, I am the one who did all this"
Rads shouts at her, "No, you are not"
Sarah also raised her voice at Radhika, "Then who else?"
Radhika instantly said, "I am the one who sent the flowers and messages to him. I am the one who danced with him on the party. I am the one whom he searched in the flower shop. I am the one who made him run behind the shadow of mine. I AM HIS SECRET ADMIRER" she finished admitting the truth in front of all unable to bear anymore lies from Sarah.
Sarah who looks at her calmly having her hands across her chest, just shrugs her shoulder and said, "That's it"
Radhika stares her not understanding her reaction, and turns back where she is looking finding Arjun is staring at her with a smile on his face, not only Arjun but the entire family smiling at her.
Arjun steps to her, "I know"
Radhika blinks and a tear drops on her cheeks, he wipes it with his thumb on her cheeks saying, "All this are a well written drama to make you admit the truth"
She looks others and they also nods their head, Neil comes to her saying, "I am sorry Chashni for hiding this but we all thought Arjun has the right to know about his admirer and he wants the truth from you. So we just helped him"
Nandini cups her face, "I wanted my son to fall in love and enjoy his life rather than being an arrogant business man, but you made him mad of thinking about his admirer and in that attempt you yourself fallen in love with him. Wow..that's so cute"
Nandini squeals in joy and kiss her cheeks wiping her tears and said, "Now no one dare to make her cry"
Mala sighs and said, "Naughty girl, come we have to do one more round of makeup"
Radhika stands numb looking at everyone and finally her eyes landed on Arjun who looks at her with a smile, she walks to him, "You...you are not angry on me?"
Arjun, "Why should I be angry on you?"
Radhika, "I played with you, with your feelings. I have hurt you badly"
Arjun,"Yeah that's true, you played with my feelings and that raised the hidden love in me. Made me fallen in love with my admirer...with you"
Radhika, "Do you love me?"
Arjun nods NO giving her a mild attack and said, "I LOVE MY SECRET ADMIRER"
Radhika smiles looking at him, everyone cheers for them. Nandini and Mala gets Radhika to room again and get her makeup done once again. Once she gets ready they both goes out to get Neil to take her with him.
She happily walks with him and meets Arjun who already sit on his place waiting for his bride to take over the place beside him. He winks at her and she reflects the same by winking at him with a blush.
On the way, she looks at Sarah who smiles genuinely looking at her but Radhika makes face and turns other side, Sarah raises her eyebrows and winks at Arjun showing her, he laughs looking at them and shrugs his shoulders.
Radhika sit beside him asking, "Who is she actually?"
Arjun, "My friend, i invited her for our marriage and she was in india from past two days and you know why". Radhika gives him an unbelievable look and finally both laugh looking at each other.
Pandit starts the rituals, makes them take 7 pheras, gives the sindoor to Arjun to fill it on her maang.
Arjun fills the sindoor and kiss on her forehead murmuring, "BE MY SECRET ADMIRER FOREVER"
Radhika smiles looking at him and whispers, "FOREVER"
Elders bless them whole heartedly for their happy life, Nesam joins their hands together and gets into a dream of their love ends in marriage which is a start of their New life.
The day goes hell tired for everyone after having the chaos and happiness in the marriage. Mala and Nandini makes Radhika ready for their First night, they take her to Arjun's room which is already decorated with the rose petals everywhere.
She waits for Arjun to turn out but suddenly she gets a call from an unknown number and the caller id shows Private Number.
She thinks for a minute and picks up the call, a voice said, "Hello Radhika, How are you?"
Radhika, "Who is this?"
Voice, "Forgot me?"
Radhika, "Who are you?"
Voice, "Your Secret Admirer"
Radhika gives an attitude look and smirks saying, "STAY SECRET"
She disconnects the call and switches off her mobile, throwing it on the bed and waits for Arjun to come. Soon he comes in with a broad smile on his face. He slowly comes to her cupping her cheeks whispering, "Thank you"
Radhika, "Why?"
Arjun, "Just like that" by saying that he hugs her tightly and looks at the mirror and winks at his own reflection in the mirror with a smirk on his face.
