proud as usual

I went to the visitor's bedroom.

In the room, I had some time to talk with them when a knock came on the door.

I turned back to open it.

And at the door, I met Abhishek standing with his hands and face smiling.

I panicked.

"What are you doing here?"

I walked outside the room.

He takes his hands away before responding.

"What do you mean, I want to say hello to your family, even though you now act as a single lady,".

Abhishek said.

He rolls his eyes afterward.

I saw that and begged him to go away.

Abhishek refused, he was so adamant about meeting my parents.

While arguing I didn't know that mom had stepped out of the door.

"Is everything okay?". She asked.

Making Abhishek and I turned back to meet her gaze.

I smiled.

However the second I thought of saying anything, Abhishek pulled me aside and introduced himself.

"Hi ma'am, I'm Abhishek, Avanti's elder brother,". He says, stealing glances at me.

Mom smiled and gently rubbed his back.

"Nice meeting me, you're quite handsome, don't you think so?"...

Mom says as she turns to face me.

Abhishek did and grinned.

Dad steps out of the room.

He met us talking.

Mom however introduced Abhishek to dad herself.

Dad grinned and also mentioned the same words mom did.

"You're quite a handsome son,". He says with a smile...

I'm confused...

Abhishek thanked them and before leaving, had me staring at the stupid smile on his face...

But, I should be happy.

After all, a mom who has never really complimented any male grin around me kinda likes Abhishek, but the question is, what will happen when Abhishek and my secret get out.

That I'm married to him and he isn't just Avanti's brother but also, my husband...

I walked my parents back to their rooms.

Afterward, I came downstairs.

At the dining table, I met a huge feast happening.

Avanti setting the table.

I came to her.

"Hey, what's happening?" She turns and faced me, " don't tell me, the entire food is for my parents?,"... I said.

Avanti smiled. However the second she looks away, her face immediately changed.

And when I turn around following the same position, I met Karan's sister walking downstairs.

"What should we do about her?". Avanti says behind.

"I don't know, ". I turned around and looked at her

"Okay, but I hope, she doesn't say anything that might trigger your parents in knowing the truth,".

Avanti said.

I shook my head unable to say anything

However, I do say the same thing.

In the quest of hiding the truth From my parents, I forgot that Karan's sister was here.

And her begin her with us might not be a bad idea.

What if she does something and my parents get to find out the truth, I don't know about my dad, but mom wouldn't hesitate to kill me.

"I'll be back,". Avanti Left.

The second she left another walked in

"My oh my, this is nice,".

Karan's sister said, behind my back

I turned around and faced Karan's sisters.

She smiles looking at the table.

"Don't tell me, we have a feast today?* She says, resting her eyes on me.

I looked away, at the stairs I saw mom and dad walk in down to us.

If there get to hear Karan's sister and mine conversation, It won't end well.

I faced her, " come with me,". I said, grabbing Karan's sister's hand.

She fought, and Said, " where you taking me too?". She runs her head back and the second she found my mom and dad walk-in down, her hands slip from mine and she takes her feet back and came before them.

Mom looks at her confused before facing me.

She says, " who is she dear?".

Abhishek walks at the same time

He looks at me and I did too, holding in the fact that, we can't tell them who she is.

"She's a family friend,".

Avanti said as she stepped out of the kitchen. I faced her releasing a deep huff.

Avanti noticed that and grinned.

She faced my parents and asked them to join us at the table...

Mom left and the next person following her was dad.

My brother, David was still in his room, I went up to call him.

I was Just about to knock on the door when Karan's sisters, grabbed my hand and I turned to face her angry gaze.

"What!" I rudely replied.

Trying to take off her hand was squishing my hand.

Karan's sister laughed and said.

"Tell me something javelin, what was that downstairs?". She curiously stared at my face...

" What do you mean? I don't understand?* I Said, getting her off from me.

Karan's sister walks like she was about to leave, however, she grabbed my neck and almost attacked me.

Thankfully David steps out of his room...

He met her at the act.

"What's going on?" He asked. Facing me, " sister, you okay?". He grabbed me away from her.

Karan's sister laughed.

She held her hands together and left.

I stare at her and while turning to face my brother, Avanti walks in.

"Javelin, your needed downstairs,". She says.

Immediately I Faced her and said, " I'm coming,".

"Please be fast,". She said and walked away.

David let go of my hand and we left to meet the others.

At the table, everyone was busy waiting for us.

Abhishek and I looked at each other.

He smiled. He took out his hand and showed me a seat next to him.

I shook my head, approaching there, when suddenly Karan's sisters, held unto the same seat and sat down.

She looks up at my angry gaze, "I'm so sorry, were you going to seat down here?". She says. Everyone looks at me.

"No! Nevermind,".I said as I went over to the next seat, beside Avanti.

I kept my hand on the table, Avanti squeezed it and smiled, and I did right back...

We all bought out our spoons and quietly ate...
