Mishti P.O.V

Waking up I saw that we were sleeping almost 3 miles away from each other.

Good.

Taking nice shower I directly got ready in outfit Abir choose for mehndi.

I woke up Abir even today he got up quickly.

I wonder why he doesn't sleep peacefully?

As he went to have shower I went to Maa and other guests.

Maa, papa, Bhai, bhabhi and Divya are going to come today.

I am waiting for them.

Only 30mins are remaining for the function to Start.

Breakfast counter is as always open. I took two plates of food one for me and one for Maa.

When the staff was serving me in two plates they gave me a look like I asked them to give me all the property they have.

Do I really want thier property?

Why this look?

Leave it.

Taking the plates I went to Maa thier ajeeb Rajvansh was already present.

I gave one plate to Maa and other to Abir with this I went to take plate for me this time the staff gave me unbelievable looks.

I don't care brothers.

After having breakfast with Abir and maa, I was roaming here and thier with Ketu as I don't know many people here.

Nishant came and started walking with me I knew why he is here.

But still acted as I don't know anything.

"Mishti... No Miss Maheshwari..no sorry Mam"

"Office ke kaam see aaye ho to mam kaho"

"Mam I am sorry"

"For what?"

"The fake reason"

"It's ok"

"Mishti"

I looked at him because I never allowed anyone in office to call me by my name.

"Mishti you were amazing yesterday"

His compliment reminded me of Abir, how he came close and said 'your surprise was amazing'

No Mishti don't blush Nishant will misunderstand you.

I made a straight face so that he doesn't understand anything.

He was saying something but I didn't heard it I was lost in mine and Abir's moment.

I excused myself from him and went near Kuhu who just came.

She was looking beautiful.

Kunal came with her, I saw the dots of mehndi on her hand and hickey also near her neck.

Why this girl doesn't hide it?

It doesn't look good in front of so many people.

She has nice hairs she could use them to hide that.

I went near the couple and teased them .

It is time for revenge.

Kunal keeps on teasing me and Abir. How would I let him go?

Everyone around was well mature to understand my jokes.

I was doing it purposely, agli baar mujhe chidhaane see pehle soch Lena Mr. Kunal Rajvansh.

The function continued I was going to sit near mehndi designer when I saw Bhai and Maa at the some distance.

I ran near them with full blown smile and took them in hug.

"Maa, papa nhi aaye?" I asked as I could see bhabhi, Divya,bhai and Maa but can't see papa.

"Wo Kal aayenge" Maa informed me.

I was feeling sad.

"Ab mujhe mehndi kon lgayega?"

"Me hu na"

Came a voice from behind.

Turning I saw it was of

Bhai.

Yes it was of saurabh bhai.

"Aap aur mehndi??

Nice joke Bhai"

"Aree bohot acchi mehndi design aati hai inhe." Said bhabhi taking her husband's side.

"Aap bade experience ke saath keh rhi hai. Lgta hai Bhai ne aapke haatho pr mehndi lgai hai."

Bhabhi looked down blushing.

While Bhai was ready to chase me so I ran as fast as I can.

We both were running.

I took a mehndi cone turned and showed it to Bhai.

I was acting as if I will put the mehndi on his kurta.

Looking at the kurta I understood it was Bhabhi's choice and how would my lovely brother let the kurta spoil then.

"Bhai me sch me aapka kurta kharab kr dungi."

Now he was stepping back and I was stepping ahead.

He was scared.

"Nhi nhi Mishti dekh tu mere chotti behen hai na... Koi apne Bhai ko aise satata hai Kya?"

"Accha mera Kya? Me itni bholi bhali, innocent si, pyaari si ldki aur aap mujhe pareshaan krte hai, koi apni chotti si behen ko itna bhagata hai Kya? Dekho ab Mera breakfast bhi digest ho gaya ab mujhe phirse kuch Khana pdega."

I said as dramatically I can

He kept his hands on his hips and narrowed his eyebrows.

"Tu aur bholi bhali?? Kisi ne ye jhut kaha tujhse?"

"Bhai" I showed him the cone in my hand, he straightened his hands and made a normal face.

He came near me I kept the cone aside, he embraced me in brotherly warm hug and said

"I miss you"

"I miss you too Bhai"

Breaking our hug we sat on couch near us which was empty.

He took the mehndi cone and started drawing some design.

"Mishti Tere pati ka naam likhna hai?"

"Of course likna hai Bhai"

"To Bata kaha likhu?"

He had filled my hand till my palm.

My palm was yet to be filled so I said

"Bhai yhi(palm) haath pr ek badi leaf me likh dijiye."

"You want the name to be visible so clearly and big? Aurte bohot soch samajh ke likhwa ti hai taaki unka pati dhund na pae."

"I know Bhai. But trust me"

"Tujh pe bharosa kr ke hi ye Shaadi hone di hai."

I looked at him, he was right everyone in the house said me to think twice on my decision of marrying Abir.

Because none of them liked Abir's behavior.

Only Maa was on my side. Everyone else was saying no to this marriage.

I Know how I convinced them.

He did as I said made a leaf and wrote Abir's name in it.

And then painted my fingers with mehndi.

"Bhai bhook lagi hai aur aapne mere left haath pr mehndi nikali hai so ab me Khana kaise khau?"

"Ruk me Teri bhabhi ko kuch laane ke liye bolta hu tb tk me Tere dusre haath pr mehndi bana deta hu"

He called bhabhi and informed the same.

Bhabhi came in some seconds as of she was around only.

She brought Apple for me.

She feed me apple and was eating herself also apple.

Bhai made a simple round on my right palm and gave some dots surrounding it.

He completed and asked me

"Kaise hai?"

I looked at both of my hands and said

"Acchi hai lekin papa se jyada nhi"

We both chuckled.

He looked at the Abir written on my hand, and said

"Mishti aaj bhi agr tujhe koi pareshani ho to Bata de. You can divorce him. No need to think about the people around. We are always with you."

I kept head on his shoulder and said

"Bhai Maine pichle Janam konse punya kiye the, I want to repeat them so that agle Janam mujhe yahi parivaar mile."

He cupped my face and said

"Tujhe kuch krne ki zarorat nhi hai. You are the best aur tujhe best hi milega."

Completing his statement he kissed me on my forehead, promising me to be with me forever.

All this while Abir was standing at a distance just staring at us. I know it because the decoration was done using mirror.

All the are was decorated with mirrors, some large and some small.

I saw Abir standing behind us in the mirror which was infront of me.

I glanced at Bhabhi she was still eating apple.

Bhabhi and apple are like NEET and JEE

Can't go together.

I whispered in brothers ear

"Bhai bhabhi pregnant hai?"

He looked at me shocked and then nodded his head in agreement.

I jumped in excitement.

I just hugged my brother tightly out of happiness.

And during this process my mehndi of right hand which was till now wet got rubbed to his kurta.

He groaned in frustration, while I smiled sheepishly.

He went to his room with bhabhi to change.

Maa was still busy with Maa.

I looked at my hand the mehndi on right palm was not spoiled. Just it got printed on Bhai's kurta.

My fingers on right hand still needed some work.

And I can't do it as my left hand also has mehndi.

Abir came and sat beside me took the mehndi cone, pulled my right hand slightly and started painting my fingers.

"Abir aap rehne dijiye me kisi aur se Kara lungi."

He didn't speak anything.

"Abir"

Silence

"Abir"

Silence

I pulled my hand back he looked at me.

"Ab Kya hua Abir?"

"Kuch nhi"

"Abir aap kuch bolenge"

"Kuch"

"Abirrr"

He took my hand and again started his work.

"Abir Kya hua hai?"

"Kuch nhi hua hai Mishti"

"To aap chup kyu hai?"

"To Kya robot ke jaise bolta rahu"

"Aise baat nhi hai. Me aapka naam pukar rhi thi lekin aapne jawab hi nhi Diya"

"Plz let me concentrate on my work"

"Ye koi concentrate krne Wala kaam nhi hai. Without concentration bhi ho sakta hai. Ye krte krte aap mujhse baat kr skte hai."

"Aise kaise dulhe ki bhabhi ki mehndi hai sbse pyaari honi chahiye."

"Meri mehndi me pehle se hi bohot jyada pyaar hai."

I said looking at mehndi and him.

Is he hurt after listening to Bhai's word?

I don't know.

Now he looked at me till now he was looking at my hands only.

He left my hand.

"Kya hua"

"Completed"

All this while we were looking at each other eyes. Then I saw at my hand it was completed.

He did made it beautiful. I was surprised looking at the design on my fingers. It was like some artist had showcased his art on my fingers.

"Beautiful Abir"

"Thanks, I am here around call me if you need anything."

He left and I started my work to talk with everyone around.

As soon as I felt my mehndi is dried I went to our room as I need to wash mehndi and then have lunch also.

Almost everyone had thier lunch.

I was going to open door by using card when I saw a hand on the door knob.

The hand was of Abir looking up at him I found him breathless.

"Abir Kya hua aap aise haaf kyu rhe hai?"

"Tumhari wajah se"

"Heiin Meri wajah se?"

"Ha to itna fast kon chlta hai. Kb se tumhare peeche hu, aur tum ho ki fast chali ja rhi ho."

"To awaaz laga dete Abir me ruk jaati."

"Itne logo ke beech me awaaz lagau?"

"Ohk sorry"

I moved back so that he can access door

"Itni der peeche the to ab aage nhi badenge?"

He very well knew meaning of my words. I did meant that he should move on from his past and look forward in life.

Understanding meaning of my words he just hummed in response, took the card and was about to open the door when I said

"Me humesha aapke saath rahungi"

I don't know when and how those words came out of my mouth but hearing to it he halted in his place, turned his head and smiled at me.

(Next part kisi story me hota hi nhi hai.)

He opened the door and holded it till I entered inside room.

"I will help you in washing hands otherwise you will fill the room with your mehndi"

I nodded as I knew anywhere I will touch the dried mehndi will fall down and the room will look dirty.

He opened washroom's door for me, I entered inside he also came inside.

I stood in front of washbasin. He opened the tap, took my hand and started washing mehndi on my hand. I was continuously looking at him. He was being adorable day by day.

My love for him is growing everyday. I am falling hard for him. And I didn't intend to fall out of his love.

I will never be able to Unlove him. I would never be able to hate him whatever happens.

"Abir"

He looked at me and gestured me to continue, while he was doing his work of Washing my hand.

"You know I like mehndi very much. So before every festival papa use to apply mehndi on my hand. But look na this time he didn't show up. I am not going to talk with him."

I don't know why but I like to share my life incidents with him and even he listens to me carefully.

But can I share the most darkest part of my life with him?

Will he break our relation then?

"Aisa nhi kehte Mishti. Dekho agr wo aajate to tumhare Bhai ka talent dekhne thodi milta."

He said showing me my left hand where Bhai wrote Abir's name.

I smiled at him. He was right I could never know the talent of Bhai and Abir.

"Aapka bhi"

I said showing my fingers to him on which he applied mehndi.

He was washing mehndi from lower part of hand which made me hiss in pain.

He heard me hissing in pain so he started caressing the area.

He gave towel to wipe my hands and left. After freshen up I went out to look that he has changed his clothes and the lunch plates were already there.

(Hamesha ldka mehndi laga me Chala jata hai usse dhone me help kon karega?
Idiot ped laga to liya pr usse paani dalna, fertilizer Dena aata hi nahi hai. Koi cheez krne hai to Puri Karo aadhi kyu?)

We both sat on couch and started eating food.

"Log sidha Shaadi nhi kr skte I mean itni saare rasme kyu krni hai? Aaj ka hi function le lo mehndi koi celebrate krne wali cheez hai? Apne ghr me Beth kr bhi to kr skte hai na?"

"Abir mehndi laga ne se stress aur body ki heat dono km hota hai aur rashes nhi hote. Rhi baat function ki to Shaadi ki tyaari krne ke liye sb bhaag dood kr rhe hote hai so iss function ke bahane se sb baith kr aaram see mehndi nikal sakte hai. Aur jo baat hai sb Ghar me krne ki to hamari Shaadi bhi Ghar me hi Hui thi. It is Kuhu's choice to have destination marriage."

We finished our lunch talking about random things. I did told him the effort I needed to convince Mr. Rajvansh for one week holiday.

Finishing dinner he kept the plates outside so that room service staff will take it away.

I was going to sleep when he came and handed me bottle of coconut oil.

"Ye oil lagane se mehndi ka rang aur gehra hota hai."

I forwarded my hands, he shook his head in disbelief and started applying oil slowly.

His hands were simply roaming on my hands, but it felt sensual.

Why I asked him to apply oil?

I could have applied by myself atleast ye sweet torture to nhi sehna pdta.

I was feeling adrenaline rush through my veins.

Once done he washed his hands and slept beside me.

We both were sleeping facing the ceiling.

"Abir did you probhited alcohol in both the parties?"

He looked at me and said

"Boys me to probhited hai but girls me it should be done by Kuhu or anyone else not me you understand me right?"

"You should have asked Kunal to talk about it to Kuhu"

"I did and he said he will talk"

"Tell me once the alcohol his probhited."

"And if Kuhu doesn't agree then?"

"I won't go to party"

"Alcohol se 36 ka aakda hai kya?"

"Yes. Me and alcohol are like north poles of two magnet. We repell each other."

"Good"

I suddenly remembered how he got hurt on his head by me. I turned towards my right facing him and started caressing his head.

"Does it still pain?"

He nodded in no and then started rubbing my forehead slowly.

"Does it pains?"

I nodded sideways.

He looked into my eyes while I looked into his eyes.

His eyes speak to me.

I could see little amount of concern for me in his eyes.

The way he cares for me makes me feel special.

He considers me as family member.

I am important for him.

He always remembers my menses date.

He doesn't let me drive car.

The first day of my office he brought chocolate for me.

Today he applied mehndi on my hands.

We are really getting close step by step.

We both slept.

Waking up I saw that we both were sleeping facing each other, my one hand was still near his head and the other was on his waist.

His one hand was cupping my cheeks.

We were very close.

I took my own sweet time to get a proper look of my hubby.

God has made him unique one and only piece in the world.

Isiliye to Ajeeb hai.

Glancing at clock I realized it's late we have to get ready for bachelor party.

I quickly got up and went to have a shower.

After having perfect shower I wore a normal dress and the woke up Abir.

He went to have shower.

He came out of bathroom till then I kept all his and mine clothes ready.

We girls decided to get ready at the bungalow allotted to Kuhu so boys won't be able to see us.

I handed him his clothes and informed him that I am going to bachelor's party of girls.

Entering the another bungalow which was allotted to Kuhu I saw everyone was busy in dressing up.

I also got ready in gown chosen by Abir. I must say he has good choice.

The gown is really giving me a princess feeling.

We had a photoshoot section. All were clicking pics.

As the photos work got over we headed towards the party area.

Listening to the music our legs started swaying in thier own accord.

We danced,played some games had a talk and what not in short we girls enjoyed alot.

(I don't know bachelor party me Kya hota hai so sorry I won't be able to give anything in detail.)

I lost my temper when one of Kuhu's friend ordered alcohol.

"Kuhu alcohol Mana kiya tha na?"

"Bhabhi party me alcohol nhi rhega to maza bhi nhi aayega"

"Ketu chal mere saath."

"Di trust me. I won't touch any drink but plz let me be here."

"Ok but don't drink."

I left the party because I can't withstand alcohol and alcoholic people.

Alcohol the word itself makes me remember the darkest day of my life.

Now I need to be alone.
Glancing at the clock in hotel it showed 10pm.

I collected my phone from the counter and switched it on.

I didn't looked after the calls and messages because I don't care currently about anyone.

Walking slowly I reached the private beach of the hotel.

Their was no moon in the sky it was only darkness. It is no moon day because today is Laxmi pujan.

What dreams I had?

I had a dream to do Laxmi pujan with Abir. Light some crackers with him. Light up the house with diyas. Make rangoli according to his choice or with his help.

But look at us since evening we haven't seen each other.

Why I can't get happiness first hand itself?

Why I have to make effort for being happy in life?

I am strong but even I need someone to lean on.

Whom should I ?

Papa or Bhai?

They both have their own lives, own things to do.

Till when are they going to look after me?

Every year at this time I am with family to do puja. Earlier Maa and Papa did puja but from the year Bhai got married, Bhai and bhabhi does puja of Laxmi.

Look at me now all alone standing at the beach.

Standing near beach always gave me good vibes especially at night.

Who says the night is not beautiful without moon?

Brainless and blind idiots!!

Looking at the sky it has the darkest color possible but yet the shine is there.

The clouds were moving on thier own music. The whisper that the wind did in my ears was magical. The music those lovely waves created was astounding.

The sand below my foot, I was standing bare footed. The sand was smooth and rough at the same time. The way sand was moving away from my legs due to wind as giving ticklish feeling.

The darkness and the surrounding made me forget all my pain and loneliness.

I was no more lonely, darkness and the sea was there to accompany me.

I stood thier for few minutes enjoying the silence and the voice of nature.

Beauty of darkness is that it has the capacity to hide the biggest scars of life.

I was embraced by darkness except those waves which kept kissing the shore no matter how many times it's sent away.

The waves created a white color.

(Everyone appreciates the beauty of night with moon. But I have never seen anyone appreciating the beauty of dark night, beauty of night without moon. Trust me the night looks more beautiful when moon is Not thier. I do believe that amavas, poornima se jyada khoobsurat hoti hai)

Taking my heels in my hand I started walking along the beach. My tiny legs use to get buried in the sand, it took effort to walk on the beach.

Walking for few inches I saw that thier was a person standing facing the sea.

I couldn't see his face as he was facing his back to me.

The behind posture of the man felt like it was Abir even the clothes color was same.

Is it Abir?
Or
I am dreaming?

Going towards him I patted his shoulder and he turned around. I was right he was Abir

Why he is her?

At this time?

Alone?

Leaving party?

"Abir aap yaha iss waqt Kya kr rhe hai? Party me kuch hua Kya? Aap aise akele?"

No reaction he is just looking at me.

Is he drunk?

Then I am not standing here.

I turned to leave when I felt he holding my wrist.

I just rotated my head towards him looked at our hands and then at him.

He was holding my wrist very softly yet the hold was firm and had power to stop me.

He losseend his hold on my wrist and said

"I must say Vishamber Papa sach kehte hai."

Now I totally turned facing towards him

"Kya?"

"Yahi ki tum ek princess ho, you can beat every other princess present in the world."

I blushed looking down he was complimenting me and he compliments in such a cute way.

"Thanks"

Only one word came out of my mouth.

I remembered my questions.

"Aapne mere sawaal ka jawab nhi Diya Abir?"

"Yahi saare sawaal me tumse kr skta hu?"

We started walking along the shores of the beach.

"Abir remove your shoes, walk with bare foot on the sand. It's amazing feeling."

He did as I said and took his shoes and socks in his hands.

"To batao tum yaha iss waqt?"

"Girls party me alcohol was present."

"What Kuhu said to Kunal that she will not allow alcohol?"

"Her friends ordered it"

"Kuhu didn't say anything?"

"Nope she said that it's party and alcohol is common."

He was thinking something his expressions told me he is going to talk to Kunal about it.

"Abir leave the topic. And tell me why are you here?"

"Felt like spending some alone time"

He replied honestly.

"So am I disturbing?"

"No never"

Silence..

But this silence was good. It did gave me peace at my heart. It didn't felt like awkward silence.

"Well what do you think will be perfect gift for the new couple? You are good at gifts"

"When did you saw me gifting someone? I am not good at gifts?"

"Didn't you gave me gift with very deep thoughts? So stop lying and suggest me something so that we can gift them"

Did he just appreciated my gifting skills?

Did he just said that he likes my choice?

We??

Did he meant the gift will be from both of us? And not only him?

Is this true?

Is he thinking about 'US' ?

"Your thoughts?"

"Any honeymoon package?"

"Stop being cliche Abir"

"Then you say"

"Don't you have any other option?"

"Membership of any hotel they could go for a date whenever they want"

"Won't they be bored visiting same hotel?"

"Then what about couple watch?"

"What about me throwing you in the sea?"

I asked giving him wide smile showing all my teeths.

He gave me a frightening look. Awww how cute he is looking I am feeling like pulling his cheeks but I can't.

"Abir let's do one thing give them couple perfume,watch bracelet, cup,etc"

"Mishti"

he said in a Stern voice.

"Ok wait let me think man"

"Ok think your time Starts now woman"

I gave him a whatever look and continued my work to think. We were still walking.

An idea struck my mind.

"Abir I have heard from Kuhu that they both keep going on long drive."

"Hmm so should I arrange a long drive for them? Now who is being Cliche?"

"Let me complete"

"Sorry"

"Kuhu does like Bollywood movies and Kunal likes car. So what about gifting them a sports car"

"From where did Bollywood came here?"

"My dear Ajeeb insaan bohot saari filmo me couple go on drive in a sports car."

"Oh I didn't watch any movies these past years"

"Main hu na"

"Which company?"

"Kunal Mera Bhai hai ya tumhara?"

"Ok atleast tell me about which color?"

"Red"

"Ok I will order tomorrow. Hum sb Ghar pauchane see pehle waha aajaye gi car"

"Hmm"

"See didn't I said you that you are good at gifts. Accha hua I discussed it with you nhi to Kya izzat reh jati Meri?"

He made an attempt to joke but failed.

"Tumhari izzat hai?"

"Of course hai, jara Ghar see nikal kr Mera naam to pucho kisise?"

"Kyu puchu?? Mujhe pata hai ' Mr. Abir Rajvansh' "

He face Palmed himself and said me to leave the topic.

"Abir why not we both play guitar together tomorrow?"

"Sorry"

"Kyu?"

"Mujhe Meri izzat bohot pyaari hai"

"Abir stop joking I am serious"

"Everyone will be flabbergasted looking at you. Meri koi importance hi nhi rhegi. Ghar me jitni bachi kuchi izzat hai uska falooda nhi banna mujhe"

"Abirrrr" I dragged his name feeling irrated.

"So Miss. Mysterious with all honours I don't accept your offer"

"Abir why do you call me by this name Miss. Mysterious?"

"Wo to tum ho. Jitna sulzhana chaho utni complicated hoti ja rhi ho."

"I am not complicated. I am sweet and straight."

"Ya you are straight like jalebi."

"Jalebi??"

"Yes atleast uska start point air end point dono mil to jata hai. Pr you are endless."

I was about to reply him when the cell phone in my hand started to make noise. It was call from Maa (rajshri) she wanted me and Abir to visit her in thier room.

Informing same to Abir we both went to room allotted to Maa.

Entering I saw papa was standing thier with his usual smile on face.

I ran and hugged him. Tears spilled out without my permission.

I didn't know why was I crying but crying in father's embrace has always felt good.

I could feel everyone giving suspicious look to Abir

I came out of Papa's embrace, he rubbed my tears and kissed my forehead while asking me reason why I cried?

"Aap kyu nhi aaye aaj subah? Pata hai Maine kitna wait kiya aapka?"

I complained like a 2 year old sulking child.

"Sorry" he said holding his ears and making puppy face.

My father is antique piece. He is the one who can make everyone bow their head down in front of him and in house in front of me he is only my father.

That's reason I love him thoda sa extra.

"Ghar me bhi puja krnu thi na Laxmi Maa ki."

He reasoned.

After few minutes Maa brought the cash which meant she is going to give us money.

Some notes will be added to my purse.

First she gave to bhai and bhabhi as they are elder.

Then she came near me and Abir surprisingly she gave money first to Abir and then me.

We both bent to take her blessings and she did gave us blessings to live together forever.

Then we took blessings of papa.

We all sat to have our dinner.

Talking, giggling eating we finished our dinner.

Abir didn't talk much. He was on his daily mode of hmm,good and ok.

While leaving I said to Bhai

"Bhai Delhi me aisa Kya khaas hai, aap jb bhi waha se aate hai tb good news leke aate hai. Last time bhi aur iss time bhi?"

"Tu na ruk Tera bhi time aane Wala hai tb dekh me Kya krta hu?"

"Kya karenge Mera bhi Delhi ka ticket katwa denge?"

"Mishti" he growled in frustration.

Me and Abir were walking towards our room when he asked

"Ridhima bhabhi is pregnant?"

"Ha but don't say it to anyone"

"Why? Itni acchi baat share nhi krni?"

"Abir pregnancy ke first 2-3 months kisi ko batana nhi chahiye. Accha nhi hota."

"Ye rule kb release hua?"

"You know pehle do mahino me it's very critical so any of our unknown enemy could take advantage of it to complete his revenge. And even in these 2 months natural miscarriage do happen, then you know the society they won't leave any chance to taunt the lady."

"Very deep and thoughtful"

While talking we reached out room. I went out washroom to change and have a bath.

I came out and Abir went in. I laid on the bed and slept as I was very tired.

(I do feel some sensible talks are needed more that those stupid drunk scenes. What happens in drunk scenes jisne sharab pi hai uske man ki baat pata chal jati hai that's it.
I don't think Mishti needs help of alcohol to understand what is going on in Abir's mind)

*********

Abir P.O.V

I was standing on the beach looking at the surrounding. It was same as my life only darkness.

I am waiting for my moon to come and bright up the darkened life of mine.

You could not see anything in darkness.

(Don't take me as bipolar. I have to mention 2 different pov of same situation.)

Why everyone wants Mishti to divorce me?

That day prince today her Brother.

Her father is upset with me is seen on his face.

If I am not wrong in her house only her mother has accepted me whole heatedly.

Am I so bad that no one wants to stay with me?

Am I so less valued?

Doesn't my presence and absence make any difference to anyone?

Will I be lonely for my whole life?

All alone!

I was busy in my thoughts when I felt someone tapping my shoulder as slightly as possible.

Turning I found it was Mishti.

She was looking not less than a princess.

Not getting any reply from me she was ready to leave but I holded her by her wrist.

And she stopped.

I just need to hold her once let her Know she can't leave me .

I complimented her which she responded with smile.

We both started to talk while walking. She asked me to remove my shoes and I did as she wanted.

Feeling of sand was good.

We continued to talk and walk. She helped me in choosing gift for Nanko.

I was having a companion now.

We were walking when her phone ringed and it was of her mother, she asked us to visit their room.

We both together went towards her room.

As we entered Mishti hugged her papa and started to cry. Everyone their was looking at me with sharp red eyes, they thought she is crying because of me.

I was unable to understand what happened to her? Why is she crying? Sometime before she was planning to throw me in water now what happened?

And then her father wiping her tears kissed her forehead. It was precious moment. The father daughter moment are always the best.

She complained like a kid, that she was missing her father. Her father was not less then her he also made puppy face holding his ears and said sorry to her.

I mean this family is crazy. Everyone here is a kid and not an adult.

Her father face was needed to be clicked but unfortunately I am not having camera.

After few minutes rajshri Maa got up and gave some money to Saurabh and his wife. That's when I realized it is Laxmi pujan day. Mishti did tell me about it.

I glanced at Mishti she was grinning and eager to get money.

She might be having her own dreams and plan for her first Diwali at Rajvansh sadan. And I am 100% sure none of them is full filled.

What was her mistake?

That she choose to be Daughter-in-law of Rajvansh house.

Or

because she choose to marry me?

Second is the answer because even if we would have been in Rajvansh sadan I won't have performed any puja. Because Meri bhagwan se bnti nhi hai.

Maa came in front of me and gave me money. I was not able to refuse it because I saw her giving money to Saurabh and his wife and then even Mishti was telling me the same thing.

I was son-in-law of Maheshwari's. They did accepted me. This was the sign that they accept me as not thier son-in-law but as son.

But will I ever be able to keep up thier expectations?

Or I will fail them?

While leaving Mishti was teasing her brother. From which I suspected that ridhima bhabhi is pregnant.

While walking towards room I asked her same she confirmed doubt and even said to not share it with anyone.

She knows reason behind everything. I can't even call her superstitious because then she will give you reason behind everything work she does.

Reaching our room she went to change While I waited for her. As soon as she returned I went to change.

Changing clothes I came out of washroom only to see her sleeping peacefully.

She was looking all innocent and cute. I climbed my side of bed and slept facing her.

Looking at her innocent face many questions erupted in my mind.

I pinned some of her hair strands behind her ear to get a proper look of her face.

I rested my one hand on her cheeks she smiled in sleep as if feeling my touch.

Will I ever be able to give her the happiness she deserves?

Will she be Happy living with me whole life?

Will I ever be able to give her what she wants?

Will I ever be able to keep the child in her alive?

Will I ever be able to give her the Respect she deserves?

Will I ever be able to give her the rights of wife?

Will I ever be able to gain the importance in her life which she gives to her family?

Will I ever be able to give her the importance that her family gives her?

Will I ever be able to trust her blindly?

Will I ever be able to protect her?

Will I ever be able to love her?

Abir!! stop thinking too much sleep now.

I drifted to sleep.

********

Mishti P.O.V.

Waking up I saw that Abir's hand was cupping my cheek. We were sleeping facing each other.

I holded his palm in my palm and slightly moved it towards my lips to kiss his palm.

Kissing his palm I muttered I Love you under my breath.

I wish to daily wake up with this scene.

But unfortunately from tomorrow we won't sleep on same bed. I would be sleeping on the floor and he would be sleeping on the bed.

I can't see the view right after opening my eyes.

Sighing I got up and did what I did from past 2 days.

Yesterday's night walk with Abir along the beach was dream like.

Everything at that moment was perfect.

Abir went to have a shower while I got ready in yellow suit for haldi.

Abir got ready in blue kurta.

We both went to the garden area where the function was held.

Everyone was busy in talking. Again I brought breakfast for everyone.

After having breakfast we again started talking. Abir went to look after his brother.

In some time the couple was ready for the function haldi.

Everyone applied haldi to the couple and now it was time for us to play haldi.

I took a handful of haldi and searched for Abir.

I found him talking to someone. He was standing near a couch.

Quietly I went near him and climbed on the couch. I indicated the person in front of him to keep quiet, he did as I said.

I quickly applied the handful of haldi in my hand on Abir's face.

Abir didn't understood what happened?

He was perplexed by my actions.

Before he could turn and catch me I climbed down the couch and stood a little far away from him to see what he does.

He groaned in frustration.

He cleaned the area near his eyes to get proper view. As soon as he saw me he ran behind me and I ran ahead of him.

Abir was running to catch me but couldn't. Till now their was no obstacle but then ketu.

I stood behind Ketu, he came near us he was breathless. He was not able to speak properly.

I pushed Ketu towards him and ran to hide behind Papa.

He came near papa and said

"O papa ki ladli Jara chehra to dikhaiye"

I looked towards him standing behind Papa.

"Ye Kya hai?"

"Haldi"

I said making innocent face.

"Mishti ye mujhe bhi pata hai. Tumne mujhe kyu lagai?"

"To kise lagau deewar ko?"

Everyone laughed at my statement.

"Papa dekhye na aapki ladli ko mujh pr thodi si bhi daya nhi aati dekhye Kya haal kr Diya Mera?"

He complained like a kid.

Was this real?

Abir directly called my father as Papa.

We all family members were shocked to see the change in his behavior but pretended like we didn't noticed.

"Mishti" papa said little stern voice.

I stood beside him bowing my head down.

"Mishti aise koi haldi lagata hai Kya?"

Papa asked me showing face of Abir.

I looked at Abir he was grinning like he got his favorite candy.

He was giving me 'mujhse panga mt lena' look.

"Aree thodi aur haldi lagao. Agar haldi Kam pade to Bata Dena me dusri mangva lunga"

Now it was time for me to grin and Abir to frown.

People around again burst out in laughing.

I was laughing when I felt someone rub haldi over all my face.

Now who was this?

Cleaning my eyes with my hands I saw Abir was standing in front of me laughing like hell then who applied.

Turning I saw that it was bhabhi who applied haldi on me.

She was smirking and said

"Tu mere Bhai ko pareshan kregi to Mai nhi chodungi"

Heein bhai? Kon Bhai? Kiska Bhai?

"Abir Tera pati Mera Bhai hua na?"

She cleared my confusion.

"Aap dono Bhai behen kb bane?"

I asked pointing towards Abir and bhabhi.

"Abhi se"

Said Abir standing beside Bhabhi.

"Itni jldi team badal le bhabhi not fair"

Someone again from back of bhabhi applied haldi on Bhabhi's face and it was ketu

"Aap Meri bhabhi ko pareshan nhi kr skti" ketu said while taking me in side hug.

Abir was bewildered by scene going on. Everyone was applying haldi to others taking revenge for thier loved ones.

I cleaned my face with tissue beside.

Abir came near me and said

"Tumne mujhe haldi lagai ab me bhi tumhe lagaunga"

"Haldi lagane ke liye haldi ka hona zarori hai"

I said because his hands were empty.

He smirked and then removed some haldi from his own face and applied on my cheeks.

His fingers were being naughty they were cold and sending chills down my spine.

He was moving his fingers very slowly on my cheek.

I closed my eyes to feel only his touch

It was fun.

Haldi is always full of enjoyment.

Then cleaning our faces with water we all clicked few pictures together.

Abir was smiling all the time which made me smile.

We all reached our respective room to get ready for Shaadi.

We both took shower one by one and then started to get ready.

Abir said to me while wearing his watch

"Mishti tumne mujhe haldi kyu lagai?"

I was in front of mirror drying my hair.

I stopped dryer and said

"I wanted my Friend to glow"

"Accha wo kaise?"

"Common sense Abir applying haldi makes your face glow."

"Hmm"

"Even you applied haldi to me why you did so?"

"Common sense even I wanted my Friend to glow"

"Ajeeb Rajvansh"

He left to look after the preparations.

I got ready instantly but the problem was blouse and it's Dori.

I dialed number of ketu, she picked up the call and was coming towards our room only.

Ketu helped me in wearing blouse not before teasing me that I should have asked Abir to do it.

I left my hair open so that my back is less open.

The mandap was set near beach I just wish aaj koi tsunami na aae.

I was roaming here and thier while helping.

It was time for baraat and I was from grooms side so I have to go.

The baraat was only from our bungalow to mandap so eventually very short.

It was good. Because walking is the thing I hate most.

I didn't danced in baraat because I don't feel comfortable in dancing with such a crowd around me.

Ketu did approach me to dance but I denied her.

In a quick we reached mandap and the pandit ji started to chant some mantras.

After sometime he said to bring Kuhu. Kuhu came along with her mother and few Friends.

I remembered how Papa and Bhai came to my room to take me in mandap.

I felt someone standing exactly beside me.

And it was none other than Abir.

I looked up at him narrowed my brows.

He indicated me to keep quiet by keeping his fingers on his lips.

Ahh this man is unbelievable.

Now why is he standing exactly behind me?

See my poor heart is racing, it will definitely win the marathon race today.

Why is he standing so close to me?

He leaned near my ear, I could feel his breath over my shoulder. I was not able to handle this close proximity. He whispered in my ears

"Mishti don't you have any jacket or dupatta over this blouse?"

What is he going to do with jacket or blouse?

Why is he asking such questions now?

I realized I am wearing backless blouse.

It should be me feeling uncomfortable why is he asking about it?

I was not able to speak anything because he was to close to me so I just nodded sideways.

"Any other matching jacket or dupatta?"

I need to think about it .

Thinking about the clothes in my bags I remembered I have one long jacket of blue color with golden border.

I again just nodded my head in yes.

"In our room?"

"Hmm"

"Chalo"

"Abir Shaadi"

"Phere shuru hone se pehle aa jayenge Chalo"

I was walking ahead and he was at back of me covering naked back.

Stupid Abir itna sb krna tha to kyu liya backless blouse.

Kya zarorat thi backless blouse lene ki?

Kaha tha Maine blouse is not good but Meri sunta kon hai?

Reaching our room's door he gave me card to open the door.

Opening door I directly went towards my bag to remove the jacket.

I kept the jacket as a spare one and it's useful.

Abir turned around facing door.

Acting very Sharif and sanskari.

Was I going to remove my blouse and then wear Jacket?

Idiot!

Their was no need to turn around.

I quickly wear the jacket and then I asked him to turn. Turning he looked at me and said perfect.

"Mishti tie that knot"

He said indicating towards the strings in front side of jacket near my stomach.

I tied it now only my hands and face was seen.

I would have kept the front string open my belly area would have been visible.

I am damn sure Abir would have seen someone checking out on me unknown to me that's why he is behaving weird.

We went to our previous place in marriage area.

Now Abir was standing beside me.

Looking at the marriage going on I remembered our marriage.

My bridal attire, Abir in sherwani, the mandap, the surrounding, I was happy because I was going to marry my love.

But Abir didn't even gave a slight smile, he was looking at the ground only.

He looked at me when he was said to fill my partition with Vermillion.

While making me wear Mangalsutra he was looking down.

I doubt did he saw me bridal attire.

The pandit asked Kuhu and Kunal to standup for taking phere.

Kunal and Kuhu completed one circle when Abir again whispered in my ears

"Mishti 7 hi phere Kyu lete hai?"

"Abir circle is of 360°. From number 0 to 9 only 7 is the number which can't be divided by 360. Pati patni ke rishte ko koi Tod na pae isiliye."

He smiled hearing the answer and concentrated on wedding.

The marriage continued and kept me reminding of mine and Abir's marriage.

Our marriage was perfect but only one thing was missing Abir's smile.

Soon the marriage got over. Everyone started moving towards food counter. Many left after having lunch.

Maa and Papa also left as they had to do puja of padwa at home.

Padwa had one tradition in Mumbai it is wife does aarti of her husband.

I was thinking to do aarti of Abir but will he agree?

We clicked some photos with the bride and groom,some family photos.

After that we family sat and had lunch. We forced Kunal to feed Kuhu and Kuhu to feed Kunal.

Ketu being the mischievous said me and Abir to feed each other.

I took the ladoo present and pushed it in his mouth, family members broke into fits of laughter.

I thought he will take revenge but he just took a spoonful of rice and made me eat it.

I was surprised by his actions. He would have taken revenge in normal but what Happened now?

After biting the rice I came to know it had a piece of green chili. My mouth started burning with the spicy sensation.

Looking around I found Gulab Jamun in Abir's plate. Picking up one Gulab Jamun I directly put it in my mouth.

He knew I don't eat chilli that's why he made me eat chilli.

Looking around everyone was busy in thier food.

I showed him fork in my hand and gave him a death glare. He gave me a scared look and continued eating.

He indicated me to have rabdi in my plate and I did as he said because my mouth was still burning.

After completing our lunch we went to drop KuKu till their room all the while we were teasing them.

Today we didn't had time to sleep in afternoon because I had to do packing of our own and even help ketu and Maa.

Packing our bags I just kept one pair of clothes out so that we could wear it while going back.

The flight is at 7am morning which means we should be at airport by 6am so we should leave hotel at 5:30am for which we have to wake up at 4am.

So no sleep and tomorrow we have to prepare for Kuhu's grah pravesh, muh dikhai and also for bhai duj.

I helped Maa and ketu to pack thier bags it didn't take much time because none of us removed all things from bags.

I was looking after Ketu's room when she went to have shower. After coming back from shower I helped her to get ready for reception.

She was looking pretty. I removed the kajal from my eyes and applied it behind her ears. She is like my little baby sister.

The little sister which I always wished for.

Ketu has been important for me since I entered Rajvansh sadan.

Taking care of her, making her ready, advising her, playing with her, helping her in studies even though I don't know anything about psychology everything feels really good.

She really became my sister more than Abir's.

She went to Kuhu and Kunal while I went to our room to get ready. Abir must have got ready because his clothes were kept on bed.

Entering our room I found that he was all set for reception.

"Mishti when are you going to perform? So that I can arrange for it"

Now I remember I have to perform on thier reception.

"Abir I don't have my guitar. I even forgot to say it to maa to bring it"

"Don't worry the hotel has its own music room I will ask them"

He does have solution to my problems.

I quickly got ready in golden gown chosen by Abir.

I was still confused about my performance what should I wear?

I heard a knock on door opening I saw it was Abir. He came inside sat on bed and said

"Mishti they say you can use any instrument present in thier music room. So come with me to choose guitar."

I choosed a guitar with help of Abir.

Abir was going to look after the catering service when I asked him

"Abir what should I wear while playing guitar?"

"Your choice"

"Abir plz tell me"

"Hmm wear same something like that day"

"You mean jeans and crop top"

"Yup"

"Sure?"

"100%"

"Okay"

I went out to be a part of Reception.

Talking, clicking, posing, the night went on.

The last hour of reception had my performance lined up.

My performance was going to be announced in next 15 minutes so I went to our room and in second changed my clothes. I was not wearing jewellery too much it was just a neckpiece and earing I didn't changed them.

T

his time the top wasn't crop it was Normal full length top.

I reached behind stage when my performance was being announced.

As soon as the person left i entered it was total dark. And then a spotlight came on me.

Only I was seen in the room everything else was darkened.

I walked to the chair given for me sat on it, closed my eyes and started to play

"Tum hi ho"

I played that song for Abir.

I will play only one song as Abir didn't wanted me to perform this yet I am doing this so only one song.

I heard everyone clapping, hooting,etc but I didn't pay any attention to it

After completing the song I rushed towards back stage so that no one asks for one more.

I was going to our room when I bumped into something hard. Looking up at it I saw it was Abir.

He gave me contended smile while I returned his smile we both started walking towards our room he was with me beside me walking.

"You were astounding Mishti!"

"Thanks"

"Why you played only one song?"

"You didn't wanted me to perform yet I performed so I thought to end it with one song."

"Good next time someone asks you to play guitar don't play until you yourself feel like playing it"

"Yes"

"Now gonna change clothes?"

"Yes"

"Don't change because the function will end in next 50 minutes"

"You ok with me roaming everywhere in these clothes?"

I asked because of his behavior during marriage. He nodded. Then we both went to reception area there we saw Maa was surrounded by many people.

Going near them we heard others were praising Maa for her choice of daughter in law.

Looking at us people started praising me for my skills. I don't like to hear so much of compliments.

I was just smiling and muttering thanks at some interval of time.

Mrs. Singh came ahead and said

"Oo ji ye aajkal ke bacche to sirf aise kapde "

Indicating to my clothes

"Pehen ke ye guitar shitar Baja na jante hai. Inhe kuch aur aata hi nhi hai. Aree bajana hai to sitar bajaye jaise Maa Saraswati bajati hai inse kuch nhi hone Wala hai."

Woman challenging me???

Huhh

I did felt bad listening to her comment but I need to shut her mouth.

"Thik hai" I said and left for music room.

Abir was coming behind me I turned and said

"Abir stage pr ek chota sa platform banwa lo so that sitar aur me dono fit ho sake"

"Mishti tumhe sitar bajana aata hai?"

He asked being surprised.

"Abir trust me and do as I say plz"

"Ok"

With that he left to do as I Said.

I went to music room they didn't stop me because I borrowed guitar from them just a while before.

Entering I saw there was only one sitar I asked the staff to bring. Then I saw that there was even flute present so I took it with me.

I didn't change the clothes as I want Mrs. Singh to show that she is wrong.

I was back stage when I heard the host's announcement about special performance.

And then all the lights were off.

I sat near the sitar after adjusting myself I indicated staff to open the curtain.

As the curtain opened the focus was just one me.

I again closed my eyes remembered Maa Saraswati and started.

I played the best rag I can.

I couldn't hear anything else than the music created by sitar.

My fingers were not in my control.

And in some minutes I stopped the sitar.

Everyone present were looking at me and then they clapped when they came out of thier revive.

Getting up I took the Mike and said

"Kyu Mrs. Singh dikh gyi Maa Saraswati ab me aapko krishn dikati hu"

Saying this I took the flute I brought from music room and started playing it.

I could see no one except my family.

After playing one tune of flute I stopped and again people around clapped and hooted for me.

Taking the Mike I started to speak

"Mrs. Singh ab bhi kuch kehna hai?"

She nodded in no bowing her head down.

"Kapdo pr na hi jaye to accha hai kyuki bhagwan to dwarkadish aur Shankar dono hai."

Dwarkadish is decorated fully like a king while God Shankar is only in tiger's skin.

"Thanks" with that I left stage with my head held high.

I stood near Maa and Abir both were looking at me like I said I have an extra marital affair.

I just gave them a tight lip smile and continued to look at some random distance.

Coming out of trance Abir said

"Mishti tumhe sitar aur flute bajana bhi aata hai?"

"To stage pr Kya kathak kr rhi thi?"

"Nhi I mean kb sikha tumne ? Tum itna accha bajati ho. You were mind blowing."

"Maine ye guitar ke saath sikha and thanks"

"To Ghar pr kabhi sitar competition rakhe? Kyu Maa?"

Abir talked to his maa really?

I have never seen him talking with Maa in fun way. He is always formal with Maa but today he interacted with Maa without any formal reason he is being casual with Maa.

I think I should daily play sitar and flute so that the rift in thier relation will be filled.

"Haa beta" was just what came out of Maa's mouth how happy she is, is seen on her face.

Abir had to attend a call so he left.

Maa got up from her place and caressed my hair slightly and said

"Mishti Thank you"

I was not able to understand why she said thanks

"Thanks Kyu Maa?"

"Mere bete ko wapis lane ke liye. Abir aisa nhi tha pehle he use to give long lecture over life , hamesha khush rehta tha aur ..."

"Aur PJ's crack krta tha, shayri krta tha hai na?"

I completed her statement.

"Abhi to shuruwat hai Maa picture abhi baaki hai"

All the guest dispersed to the bus waiting for them to take them near airport.

We all family members had dinner together and then went to sleep.

Entering our room Abir went to washroom after few minutes he came back having a nice shower.

As he came I also went to have shower. I just stood under shower to let the fear inside me be taken away by the water. Me playing sitar and flute is not common.

I only play them few times. I am not at all stable.

Standing below the shower helps me how I don't know.

The water takes away all my pain and miseries.

I just closed my eyes and even let the water in my eyes flow down freely with the water of shower.

I don't know from when I am standing under the shower because the speed of water is lessen might be the tank of our room got empty.

Cleaning myself with towel I wore my clothes and went outside to see Abir sleeping.

He is tired. He is working non stop from past few days because of marriage.

He needs rest. But he will not take rest.

Sighing I went beside him and slept not before setting an alarm.

I got with the noise of Alarm. Getting up I had a small shower because who baths at this time?

When I came out of room I saw Abir was already awake. He went to have shower he also came back earlier.

Till then I kept our belongings inside the bag and left for Ketu's room.

She already had shower, i helped her to keep the rest of the items inside the bag and then moved towards maa.

Helping Maa I went to KuKu's room they might be tired after celebrating their suhagraat.

They didn't open the door after knocking for 2 to 3 times so I banged the door with little more force and then k heard Kunal saying that he is coming.

As soon as Kunal opened the door I realized that they were still sleeping and didn't had shower.

"Kunal Kuhu dono time dekho ge" Kuhu was awake and was sitting on bed.

Looking at the time both got shocked and said that they will be ready in 5 minutes.

"Kuhu you have shower in Ketu's room" so that both can get ready quickly.

In some time everyone was gathered near pick up area after having tea and some biscuits.

We moved towards airport in the same pattern like before . Me and Abir, Kuhu and Kunal , Maa and ketu and 3 different respective cars.

After sitting in car I opened the WhatsApp of my phone.

Bhai had kept status the pic while Bhabhi was doing aarti of him. I smiled seeing it and even showed it to Abir. He didn't know why was Bhabhi doing aarti of Bhai so he asked the reason

"Abir Kal padwa tha and Marathi couple in Mumbai celebrate it by wife doing aarti of her Husband. You know bhabhi is Marathi"

"Hmm good"

Bhai had sent me some pictures looking at it I was happy because the pictures were taken while Abir was making mehndi on my hand and when we both were applying haldi to each other.

One pic was from the moment when Abir was applying me haldi it had a message attached with it

"Me to phir bhi Delhi ja ke krta hu romance tum dono ka to sbke saamne hi shuru ho gya ROMANCE!!"

I was blushing hard due to comment. I was sure that I would have been red like tomato.

I just wish Abir doesn't look at me.

Soon we reached airport. Checking in we were in waiting area. Abir and Kunal both brought some breakfast for everyone from the food counter.

We got inside flight 15 minutes before the time of departure.

Settling ourselves in our seats we started to talk.

The flight started and was in air in no time.

I was curious so I asked Abir

"Abir what are you going to gift Ketu?"

"Why should I gift something to ketu?"

"Kyuki aaj Bhai duj hai Ajeeb Rajvansh"

"Oh ha. Phir to me hamesha jaise ketu ko paise hi dunga"

"Paise Kyu?"

"So that she buys whatever she wants"

"Seriously Abir"

"Ha"

"Abir saal me sirf do baar you have to give gift to her and you only give money to her nothing else?"

"Hmm to should I go in market and buy gift for her like jewellery clothes?"

"Why not? Can't you do it for your sister?"

"Mishti stop getting emotional"

"Abir I am not getting emotional"

"Then what is this your sister and all?"

"Ok fine I have some new pair of clothes and jewellery you will give that to her not that paper"

"What why should I give her your things?"

"I just bought them I have not used them. Understand? And you will give her that clothes and jewellery"

"Is it order or request?"

"It's request as Ketu's sister and order as your friend"

"Fine will think on it"

I was in no mood for further discussion so I slept.

Waking up I saw the time there was still time for flight to land so I started to go through my mobile.

The flight landed in some times.

Getting out of airport we had cab to reach home.

I was sleepy as it was morning I didn't know when I slept.

Voice of Abir brought me out of my sleep.

Climbing down the car I went inside house.

Made everything ready for Kuhu's grah pravesh.

And then KuKu were standing at door we did thier grah pravesh. It reminded of my grah pravesh when I entered the house my footprints.

The cloth with my foot print is still their in Abir's shelf.

We played the ring game with KuKu.

During my time Abir wasn't interested so I easily won the game.

In afternoon we planned muh dikhai and before that Kuhu has to make food for us as her pehli rasoi and then at evening we will celebrate Bhai duj.

We went to our room and slept for 1 hour.

I woke up when someone banged the door.

Abir was sleeping so I didn't disturb him.

Opening door I found Kuhu with saree in her hand. I understood she wants me to make her wear saree she doesn't know how to wear saree.

"Come let's go to your room"

"But Kunal is sleeping"

"Even Abir is sleeping what about Ketu's room"

"It is locked from inside"

"Guest room?"

"Occupied"

Sighing I said her to wait closing the door I went to Abir and woke him up. Today he was sleeping soundly because he was tired.

I didn't wanted to wake him up but I have no option.

Calling his name he didn't got up. I lightly moved his shoulder he opened his eyes lazily.

"Abir plz go and sleep in hall. Kuhu want to wear saree"

"So you people go anywhere and do it but plz let me sleep"

"Abir plz"

"Mishti Jana zarori hai?"

"Hmm"

"Ok"

With that he got up and went out of room. While I removed my blanket and pillow from floor and kept it in its place.

I called Kuhu inside and helped her in wearing saree.

She went after her work was done.

Abir came inside and went to washroom.

I got ready and even Abir was doing same.

I was in front of mirror adjusting my saree and neckpiece Abir was setting his hairs when I said

"Abir aaj Khana Kuhu banane wali hai so please Meri pehli rasoi jaisa kuch Mt krna. Jo bhi wo banae accha hai keh Dena"

He stopped his work and looked at me

"Mishti I am really sorry about your First Rasoi. I really forgot. And About Kuhu you don't take tension"

"Abir Don't be sorry. It's normal. And it was good in one term because I got an honest review"

"Ok"

I went out to look after what Kuhu made but she didn't let me enter kitchen.

Sighing I went to Ketu to wake her up.

She was snoring. She indeed participated in her brother's marriage very actively.

I went near her sat beside her and caressed her head and called out her name.

She is not like her brother who will get up quickly she is in deep sleep it did take a lot of efforts to wake her up.

She went to change while I started unpacking her bag.

She came to help me in unpacking her bag.

We both completed half the way remaining we will complete after breakfast.

Going for breakfast I saw everything was Western no Indian dish made.

It was Pasta, some sandwiches and some omelettes.

That's it. I am damn sure she doesn't know cooking.

Because this all are easy to make dishes.

( Ok don't kill me now because in India many houses are there where the younger daughter in law can't cook well but the elder daughter in law is pro in cooking skills)

And who the hell makes nonveg on Bhai duj except Kuhu?

I will not eat Omlette and even tell Abir to not eat it.

I went to our room to find Abir working. I stood beside him he kept his eyes on laptop and said

"Shoot"

"Kuhu has made omelette don't eat it."

"Why now only you said I should eat whatever she makes?"

"Abir aaj Bhai duj hai so no non veg plz"

"Ok what about others they will have it?"

"I can't tell everyone because then no one will eat and then Kuhu might feel bad"

"As you wish"

Going out I said to  Kuhu because I need to stop everyone from eating omelette.

"Kuhu ye omelette andr rakh do plz"

"Pr bhabhi Maine ye sb ke liye banaya hai"

"Kuhu aaj Bhai duj hai non veg nhi khate hai aarti krne se pehle to bilkul nhi"

"To bhabhi ab iska Kya karu me" showing omelette to me.

"Fridge me rakh do badme kha lenge"

Thank God she listened to me.

"Kuhu thode aur sandwich bana lo"

She heard me and started working.

Everyone gathered near dining table waiting for breakfast.

I sat beside Abir. Kuhu came and served everyone.

Looking at dishes served Abir turned his head towards me and raised his brows asking me about omelette.

I just closed my eyes assuring him I handled, he just smiled and started eating.

Taking a bite of pasta I felt the salt in it more than normal.

Sandwich was ok.

Glancing at Abir he was making ajeeb faces.

Yet having it because I told him.

I also finished the pasta in my plate and washed my hands.

After everyone finished thier breakfast I went to Ketki's room to help her in unpacking.

Now I have to look after house as guest are going to come.

Thanks to Maa she ordered food from catering otherwise I would have to make food.

Setting everything right I got ready for muh dikhai of Kuhu.

Outside guest started to come one by one.

Once all were there Maa told me and Ketu to bring Kuhu out.

We both went to her room.

Looking at her I knew one thing for sure 'aaj world war 3 hone Wala hai'

Mishti be ready to fight in a war.

Hi guys

Appreciation and criticism both are welcomed.

Update is of More than 11.5k .

Short update right??

Don't expect such long updates any more.

It is long because I wanted to end the chapter of KuKu's Shaadi.

See if I would have posted it daily of 1000 words then this chapter would have 11 parts.

So no update till next 11 days

Sorry.
