Yes. Seeing the lady there I knew he would be my groom.

VIVEK MADHAV.

Industrialist. Born in India. Brought up in America. Graduated from UK. Living in Australia. Kind of an NRI. Other than business he loves to boast about himself and his international achievements.

You maybe thinking how do I know a lot about him. He and his mother have repeated his biography a thousand times last year.I have met him last year during one of my family friend's marriage. He met me and started to boast about himself so much that I felt to kill myself. His mother is no less. She is the kind of person in kitty parties who boast about her only son's EWWsome achievements like he is the only one to achieve those.

Did he fell in love with me during that meet? Why did I even attended the wedding. I would instead -sit home,wear my baggy pajamas, binge watch some Netflix series eating popcorn- if l knew I met him and he desired to marry me.
We were now in my room. For the private talk.

" Hi. How are you?" The internationally acclaimed young industrialist is asking me how am I doing. Just seriously. Would anyone feel lucky to get married to someone like this idiot here other than those girls whose life is nothing else than parties and money.

"Fine." I tried to plaster the fakest smile on my face and speak in the most sweetest voice ever. "Why can't I act?" I complained myself." YOUR ACTING SUCKS!!" Dev's voice echoed my ears. He was right . It was something I couldn't do.

" Can we go on a date tomorrow? As we can get to know more about each other. We are getting married in a week and will be moving abroad later." Asked Mr . Vivek.

" Huh?" Do I really wanna go on a date when I am broken , that too with the most irritating person I ever met.

"Okay be ready by 10.30 am, tomorrow. Don't be late by a sec." He said , no ordered. And he stood straightened his Blazer and moved away. I saw him walking away.

I seriously need someone to help me out now. I took my phone to call her.
As soon as the rings subsided, I whispered a hey.

" Booo, I miss you. Where are you? Still in Mumbai? I saw a glance of you in the last match. You just propose him na. I am waiting to be your bridesmaid. I've been trying to come to you . But this idiot Suchit is too irritating ,He's not even letting me telling " you're pregnant" every now and then. Can I get a divorce?"

I chuckled at her words, I miss her too. She moved to Suchit's apartment about an year ago. That's something married couple do. She and me had a verbal fight regarding the same. She said Suchit will stay in her room. But I didn't want that to happen. It's not that I hate them. But I don't want to hear those moans every night. I knew how desperate a couple was them. And they proved that once again with the news of minion's pregnancy two months later.

" Are you sure you'll be able to look after a baby, When you yourself are one.?" I asked still chuckling.

" Should I be proud that I am still able to be a kid or sad over the fact that I'll be a bad mother." She said with the most innocent voice she ever spoke, and I can see her puppy face from here. Her pregnancy hormones are acting way too much.

" Wait i be better proud. As I have you who is is call away who'll look after my baby." Said her chewing into something, probably white chocolate.

' a call away!!'. I will be somewhere unknown two weeks later. And how can I be a call away.

" Are you there?"

" Huh....um...i.i.aam" I said breathing heavily.
"Are you ok?"
"I'm fine."
"Don't lie, tell me. Did Dev say something to you. I am gonna come and kill him."
"I am getting married."
"What? Are you serious? Are you not in Mumbai? I know you're messing with me right. You're such a prankster and I know that. "

"N..no...", I just cried , I couldn't speak anything else, just a no .

"Boo, please. I wanna meet you right now. You are tensing me."

"Sorry, I shouldn't have called you. I just .... I should have thought of your condition."

"To hell with my condition. Does Dev know?" I heard her speak with concern.

"No. He...he proposed me."

"Wait what! Don't say that you rejected him and is getting married to someone else."

"I did that. The worst thing happened to me. "

"Come back" I could hear her sobbing there. I regretted calling her. She is pregnant and I am making her hard.

"I wish I could, but..." I let out a huge sigh.".... I am sorry, bye."

I hung up the call and fell on my knees.... Crying. And about an hour later I felt my self pulled into a hug. I didn't knew who it was but it felt good. I cried falling on the shoulders. I looked up to see my baby sister looking at me crying.

Jeeva AKA Jeevika, she was younger to me by 5 years. She is doing her master's in economics in Delhi. My bestest friend ever.Like everyone we too had those crazy sibling fights but TBH she was always with me. I missed her presence the whole week .

"Are you seriously getting married? Please say no." She said crying.

"You called me a month back and asked me to get married so that you'll get this room all by myself." I tried joking so that she didn't felt that I didn't want this to happen. If she did she will make it a mess. I know it from long. She always stood for me.

"Not funny. I know you don't want to get married to that NRI certified douchebag ever. Just tell Dad , understand."
"Its not that way jeeva, I am getting married to him. And that's it. And you'll support me no matter what. Okay?"

I said and moved towards the door.

"I know you love The Devdutt Padikkal and he loves you too."

It stopped me on track and I turned back.
"No. I don't"
"Then why were you crying ?"
"I was sad leaving you all."
" And you want me to believe this silliest excuse? I am going to talk to them."
"You're not doing that Jeevika."
"THE DEVDUTT PADIKKAL proposed you right. I know you'll be thinking how I know. Neha called me. Please call this wedding off. "

"How am I supposed to do that jeeva. Dad and mom are really excited. And every relatives are being invited. I can't do this."

"You are calling this wedding off and that's it!!!!"

Both mine and jeeva's head snapped to the door finding her standing by the door with hands crossed to the chest.
