Above is Aradhya's dress

Aradhyas POV

I stopped drying my hair when my gaze fall on the clock, Vidushi will anytime come with the make up artist. I pleaded her many times that I don't like make up and like being natural but she assured me that I will like it.

I sighed thinking about it just then the door burst open with Vidushi dragging a horrified make-up artist.

I looked at them wide eyed." Vidushi why are you dragging her." I asked looking at the poor girl beside her.

"Bhaabi did you see the time , guests will start coming any time, common you need to get ready fast." Vidushi said picking my dress and handing it to me.

I took the dress and went to the washroom to change. After wearing it I looked myself in the mirror of washroom I was feeling weird I never wore a dress before,and it was hugging my skin tightly showing my curves, god why it's Soo tight.

"Bhaabi!!!!! Come out fast." Vidushi yelled from outside impatiently.

Ok Aru you can do for your di

I took a deep breath and opened the door Vidushi looked at me and her mouth hang open.

Why gannu ji am I looking that bad , I know these are not my cup of tea

I thought sadly wanting to cry my eyes out ,

"Ma'am you are looking hot and gorgeous , the color suited your skin complex." The makeup Artist spoke breaking my thoughts.

I looked at her dumbfounded then turned towards the mirror, the looking at me is Soo beautiful, is it really me, but how can I be this beautiful.

"My goodness today my Bhai will be burned , need to call fire fighters." Vidushi said and the make up artist giggled.

"Why he will be burned Vidushi did anything caught fire and why would Vihaan's will go near fire." I asked panicking.

Oh gannu ji how can they laugh at this serious Matter

Vidushi smriked." Oh bhaabi you have a very Holly mind lets leave it for bhai to make it unholy." Vidushi said winking.

What are they talking about

The make up artist did a light make up for my sake, she did my long hair beautifully with few curls falling on my forehead and side.

I couldn't recognize my own self, I was looking really good, but I am sure di must have looked more graceful with her confidence style.

After that Vidushi got ready in a black dress which had a slit till mid thigh , she was looking very pretty.

The make up artist left after getting us ready. Vidushi left the room to attend her friend call leaving me alone.

Oh gannu ji I m feeling Soo nervous

I thought looking at my sweaty palms, I never liked it from childhood when I become the center of attention, family gatherings, I have never attended any party before only heard it from Di and read it on my books.

"Vidushi maa is cal....." Vihaan suddenly entered the room and stopped on his tracks and looked at me mouth open a little.

I cleared my throat which brought him to sense. He looked away from me then cleared his throat,

"Umm where is Vidushi." He asked.

"She went to receive a call from her friend." I told him.

Oh gannu ji please send him back or make me invisible,

I peaked at him to see him smriking at me with that same evil way." Soo you loved my proposal right, you know I m way to charming no one can resist it." He said mockingly giving me a crocky smrike.

I frowned at him." Listen dont think yourself Soo high , I only told that lie to for my di otherwise this act would have spoiled and if not for my di I would have never looked at a mannerless arrogant egoistic man like you." I said flaring my nose.

Anger crossed his face , his jaw tightened,." You......" He stopped as the door burst open.

"Ah huh bhaiya I just left her for few minutes and you already started romancing." Vidushi said teasingly entering the room.

Vidushi please don't embarrass me

Vihaan clenched His fist and forced a smile." Of course remember she is my Girlfriend." He gritted out throwing a quick glare at my to way which I returned with a frown.

Girlfriend, Gannu ji if not for Di I would have never even talked with a guy like him , stupid don't know how do will spent life with him

Thought he looked good, but looks not everything , I don't know what made di fall for this jerk

"Okay enough of romancing dad told me to inform you that everyone is arrived you two come fast I am going." Vidushi said and walked out.

After she went out from there Vihaan muttered a curse , and looked at me." Common we have to go there together." He said rudely.

Suddenly a thought crossed my mind." Vihaan j...I mean Vihaan will there be news reporters." I asked tensed.

Vihaan looked at her with a duh expression," off course there will be , not only that many big and famous businessman will also be there, after all its Rajput family's party." Vihaan said proudly.

This is not good Gannu ji , mom dad doesn't have any idea about di's relationship and if they got to know that without even informing them di let them announce her as their future daughter in law....I.. don't know I can't even imagine how they would feel..

"But Vihaan my family doesn't have any idea about both of your relationship, yesterday only mom and dad called me and they know that I and di are here waiting for my college to open, what if they get to know about this." I told him tensed.

"Don't worry non of your family members would know about it , the reporters are from our company and I make sure that your family doesn't know anything." He said for the first time genuinely.

I nodded still unsure,

Di should have at least informed mom and dad about Vihaan.

"Common let's go." He said forward his hand.

I hesitatingly keep my hand in his, I think he sensed my uncomfortableness because he just lightly held my hand just for showing.

We both walked out of the room and I can already hear the slow music and voice of people.

As soon we stepped in front of the stairs case flashlight started, I tightened my grip around Vihaan.

"Relax just try to smile a bit , you don't want to look like a freaked out kitten in the news paper tomorrow." He whispered to me jokingly.

I forced a smile and sent a quick glare at his way.

Vihaan signaled something with his hand and the music and flashes stopped.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen, first of thank you Soo much for coming here by making Time from your busy schedule, and now as you all know the cause of this welcoming party is my fiance Soo let me introduce her to you all..." I looked at him surprised.

Where did he got the Mike from.

He looked at me forwarded his hand I took it and stood beside him, he placed his hand on the small of my back making me stiff.

"Meet my future fiance Amaya Patel , that's it ladies and gentlemen enjoy the party." He said and music again started.

We walked down the stairs and some people come to congratulate us well specially Vihaan as the billionaire of London got someone to get hitched soon.

It was Soo boring , I will never attended any party in future.

"Soo Mr.Playboy finally getting hitched." I heard a voice and looked up to a see a very handsome man he was non Indian similar to Vihaan age was was approaching us along with a very beautiful girl with him.

The guy was Soo handsome that made me blush, with thick black hair and Deep brown eyes he could make famous model give a run for money.

Vihaan smiled wide seeing them." Reya , Reyansh." He greeted hugging the very good looking man.

The man Reyansh smiled charmingly,

"Stop calling me that ridiculous name Vihaan I started heating that name ever since a certain someone name R entered to make my life hell." The girl said throwing quick venomous glare at Reyansh.

I looked at the girl she was Soo beautiful, I bet she can be good famous model , she was graceful and her every movement filled with confidence.

Reyansh looked at her with a amusing smile." Oh really princess but last time I remember that certain someone named R saved you from la..." Reyansh was saying something but that girl cut him off,

" stop rubbing it on my face always like a kid." The girl said gritting her teeth.

Gannu ji why are these to fighting like kids in middle of a party , aren't they aware that everyone is looking at them I thought as some people looking at them like they are sources of entertainment.

"Oh really Shreya , then let me remind you all the childish stunt you pulled on me.." Reyansh trailed off smriking.

Shreya glared at him." God I don't know why dad sent me with you." She muttered.

"Oh let me answer that because he believes me over his spoilt little bratty princess and know I will take good care of her know no matter how bratty she behaves." He replied like mocking her.

Shreya throwed dagger at him and pointed a finger at him." You..."

"Okay okay enough guys, please continue your fight after my party." Vihaan finally interrupted.

Why was he enjoying their fight till now, huh such jerk

Reyansh looked at me smiled charmingly." Oh here see my manners I completely forget the cause of my arrival here because of you princess." He said teasingly to Shreya who mouthed something to him which I couldn't understand for which he chuckled.

He looked at me again." Hello pretty lady I m really thankful to you for putting a full stop to my friends whoring ways." Reyansh smiling and Vihaan glared at him.

I smiled at him. " Well not everyone should be boring like you nah, the goody goody BOY." Shreya said mocking smiling while pressing on the words Boy.

Reyansh smiled looking down then he turned towards her and whispered something in her ear which made red color to spread on her cheeks , when he turned us again Shreya was looking at him with mouth hang open.

"By the Amaya leave there bantering otherwise it will never end , let me introduce you three . Amaya this is Reyansh my college buddy and this is Shreya Rathod my cousin and guys you already know her Amaya my girlfriend and future fiance." Vihaan introduced us.

I smiled at them. Shreya smiled at me." It's nice to meet you Amaya," she said politely.

"Nice to meet you to Shreya." I said back politely.

"Amaya make sure to shoo all the girls who even try to come near your man." Reyansh said smiling.

My man , it sounded Soo awkward

I forced a smile and nodded. " And yeah Take my number from this man and if he even try to make you sad just give me a call I will beat the daylight out of him." Reyansh said winking playfully.

I smiled at him , he was a very easy going well mannered Guy not like this jerk.

We talked for sometime after that they bide bye saying they have to leave early tomorrow for India.

Then some more old couples come got engaged in talking Vihaan, they were talking about business and I was getting a headache from the boringness.

Vivian also come with some of his friends who were like him cool and cheerful but I think they are little intimidated from Vihaan.

"Amaya ma'am you are Soo beautiful do you have any sister please set her up with me nah." One of the guy said.

"Bhaabi will not set you idiot because, she will set me up with her , I always wanted a sweet cute girl like bhaabi and I m sure her sister will be just like her, right bhaabi you will set me up with your sister right." Vivian said giving me puppy eyes

My eyes widened and I coughed a bit." Enough of the joking, Amaya come with me I went to introduce you to some of my business partners." Vihaan said glaring at them and dragged me away

He introduced me to some middle aged businessman again and this time when they got busy in business talks.I excused myself and started searching for Vidushi or Vivian but I saw a familiar face which made me smile brightly.

I walked towards her, she was sitting in of the corner with sad pout, the same girl from who helped me choose the dress. She was looking gorgeous in a beautiful net dress.

"Hey." I said happily.

She looked up and her eyes widened and a huge smile spread on her face.

"Hiiii, see god again listened me and we meet again." She told me with a huge smile.

I smiled back and sat beside her." Why are you sitting alone with that sad face." I asked her about her earlier sad face.

"Oh actually Ishu got busy with his boring business partner and I don't know anyone here Soo was simply sitting with boredom I thought to congratulate you both but you were busy Soo I thought I will congratulate you both later." She said.

Oh god she is here and that day I thought she is a employee of Anna stupid me Gannu ji

"By the way congratulations." She said with a sweet smile.

I smiled back." Are you Vihaan's relative." I asked her.

She shook her head." No but Ishu.. oops I mean Ishaan Singhaniya , you must have heard about him he is Mr.Rajputs business partner and good friend." She said

Ishaan Singhaniya...

Oh my God Gannu ji did she mean Ishaan Singhaniya the most eligible bachelor the billionaire of New York

My eyes widened , di always used to fangiring over him, he is a powerful business tycoon and dangerous man also.

"Hey Amaya what happened, where did you got lost." The girl said.

Di must have been over the moon if she was here

"How did you know my name." I asked her confused.

"Magic." She said with a funny expression snapping her fingers.

When she me staring at her confusedly, she chuckled." Aree just now Mr.Rajput announced in front of everyone that 'meet my future fiance Amaya Patel'." She said while mimicking Vihaan.

I chuckled." I am such a stupid." I mumbled to myself.

"Nope you are just naive ." She said with a genuine smile.

I smiled back, I really liked her.

"Uff see I forget to introduce myself, I am Nisha Ahuja." She said.

We talked for sometime and exchanged numbers, she was really a good company, I am sure if not for this act we would have become good friends.

"That's Ishaan." She said point towards a man who was talking with Vihaan.

The man was handsome but he has a powerful dangerous aura not like Reyansh or Vihaan, a cold shiver run down my spine looking at his stoic face , his black eyes were filled with darkness like the night of moon and starless sky.

Gannu ji I don't know went to meet that guy , he is giving me dangerous vibes

But when I looked back Nisha she was lost in him like he is the moon of her dark night. Her eyes were filled with adoration, pride and a emotional which I have seen in my mom eyes when she looked at dad, a small beautiful smile was playing on her lips.

" Are you two engaged Nisha." I blurted out and instantly hit myself inwardly.

How can I ask her that question we just meet few minutes back

Nisha looked at me shocked but a red hue covered her cheeks." No Amaya we are just.." she paused like finding words inside.

"Friends." She whispered after few minutes.

Friends, Gannu ji I might have not any friends but I have seen di's Friend and they don't look at each other like this

"Oh I m sorry actually you to look like a couple that's why , I am really sorry." I said genuinely.

She shook her head." It's okay Amaya , things are always not simple as it looks, it's not your fault something looks simple but in reality they are forbidden." She said still smiling but the spark lost her eyes.

Gannu ji what did she mean by that, uff why people talk Soo complicatedly now days

We saw that man Ishaan walking towards us, I immediately looked down because I am kinda scared of that man aura.

"Nish let's go ." The man said.

Nisha nodded and stood up , the man looked at me making me.". Congratulations Ms.Patel Vihaan is a nice guy I can say he will be a good future partner." He said.

I nodded still him and tried to smile but only a tight lipped one came out. Nisha laughed looking at me.

"Oho Amaya chil he won't eat you alive, he may look all bulky hulky but trust me there is big softy gentlemen inside." Nisha said laughed.

I frowned doesn't she feels intimidated by this man.

The man looked at her with a Stern look." I may not eat her alive Nish but u can't guarantee about you." He said with a dark voice.

Oh Gannu ji is the guy even human, eat her , oh Gannu ji please look after Nisha

Nisha smriked at him." You are always welcome to eat me Mr.Singhaniya." she said with a wink making that Ishaan to cough a bit.

Huh who invite their own death like this Gannu ji , doesn't she went to live anymore then why is she telling him to eat her what if he really it her up , she might gone crazy Gannu ji but you please save her

The man glared at her , then Nisha bide me bye saying we will keep in touch.

I was simply standing checking my mobile to see any message from di or home when someone bumped into me and heard a sound which made horror to struck into me.

The sound of clothes tearing,

I immediately touched my back and sure enough the fabric little below my back was teared exposing my skin. I immediately turned around but the lady was not there anymore, I keep standing there with my back glued to the wall , I tried to call everyone but no one picked up. I could feel panic feeling my nerves, my vision was getting blurred with tears.

Gannu ji please help me if someone see this then.... please Gannu ji

I was a moment away from crying when I heard a deep manly voice which I never thought I will be this much happy to hear.

"What are you doing in this corner." Vihaan said walking towards me.

"What happened." He asked probably looking at my ready to burst into crying any moment.

"Vih-Vihaan please help me....my dress got teared." I told him and a sob left my lips.

His eyes widened and he cursed loudly." How the hell did it happen." He Asked with a low voice.

I shook my head." I don't know a lady bumped into me and then I heard the tearing sound and touched my lower back to see its teared, I tried to call everyone but no one heard because of the music." I told him honestly while wiping my tears with the back of my hand.

Vihaan run a hand through his hair." Okay stop crying I...." He was saying but suddenly his eyes widened soo did my.

"Aree Vihaan what are you doing here." We heard a voice and immediately Vihaan was beside me he sneaked his hands in my waist covering the torn area.

We saw the Akira coming towards us with a raised a eyebrow." I was searching for you everywhere and you are in this corner....." She trailed off when her eyes fall on me.

"Oh hi Amaya." She said with a tight lipped smile.

I returned back a small smile, but my insides a hurricane was happening. Vihaan hand was covering my exposed skin , the roughness of his hands were making the hair of my spine to straight up, my cheeks were hot as if someone has painted them with red color.

"Actually Amaya was not feeling well Soo she was here and then I come here to search for her, why don't you enjoy the party Akira till then I take her back to her room . " Vihaan said giving her one of his charming smile.

Akira nodded still looking unsure, Vihaan give her one more smile before dragging me along with him. When were passing through the main party hall I tensed up a little.

"Shhhh it's okay I have your back don't worry." Vihaan whispered softly.

I don't know what it was in his voice but I relaxed a bit. I will always be great full to him for this day.

_______________

After changing into one of my comforter salwaar, it was a simple cotton salwaar with pink dupatta , I went out of the room in search of Vihaan , I need to thank him.

I saw one of the servant and stopped him.

"Brother do you know where is Vihaan." I asked him.

"Vihaan sir is in terrace ma'am.." he said.

After asking the direction from him I thanked him and walked towards the staircase, there was also lift but I prefer to walk as it good for health.

In Terrace

I saw the beautiful Terrace it was Soo big. One side was sitting area which was covered with glass shade to prevent sunlight or rain. Other side was filled with beautiful plants and shadeless.

I saw Vihaan stand on the edge keep his hands on the railing. I walked towards him and stood beside him.

"Why are you not in the party." I asked him to start the conversation.

He didn't looked at me just shrugged and continued to look at the busy city which can be seen from here.

"What are you doing here and are you alright now." He asked without looking.

"I am fine and I wanted to thank soo..." I trailed off.

Uff gannu ji why is it Soo difficult, is it because I used to call him jerk and he helped me like a gentleman.

He looked at me with narrowed eyes." Thanks for what.." he asked straightening himself and turning towards me.

"Woh you helped me today nah ,." I told him.

"Don't be silly , ." He said shrugging but I cut him off,

"No it might be silly for you,but you don't know what I was feeling that time, I never experienced that kind of situation and that in middle of soooo many people , I can't even imagine what would have happened if someone would have seen me like that." I told him honestly I still feel scared thinking about that situation.

"Hey hey now don't cry again I don't want to die this early and that to in a river of salty tears." He said raising his hands up with a horrified expression.

I laughed loudly hearing him and he also started Chuckling with me.

"Aap utne bhi bure nehi ho." I said Chuckling.( Translation: " you are not that bad ".)

He looked at me with shocked expression." Oh wow Ms.goddy is complementing me I m touched." He said mockingly.

I playfully glared at him but then ended up smiling." Friends." I asked him .

"Oh no I don't want to make friendship with Ms.19th century who knows you might turn me like you and then Maya would reject me before even letting me propose her." He said shaking his head.

I pouted." You are two meanie I will complain to Gannu ji." I said.

He looked at me with a raised eyebrows." Go ahead , I m not afraid of your boyfriend." He said crossings his arms.

I gasped at him and then hit my forehead." Oh God, Gannu ji mean Lord Ganesha, you are impossible Vihaan." I said shaking my head.

He looked at me few seconds blankly then bursted out laughing." God you are funny yaar." He said laughing loudly.

I pouted at him." Jerk." I said playfully and he laughed some more........
