*****************
Looking at the confused and shocked faces of everyone it was quite obvious no one there was aware of this sudden agreement, not even the girl I was marrying. She wasn't herself and even at the time of pheras[holy rounds of fire] she looked disturbed, she had no idea what to do. For a moment I thought maybe someone will come and stop the shit I was going through but no one bothered. I had to help her to move during the pheras[holy rounds of fire]. With every round of the holy fire, it felt I was signing a contract, a contract of matrimony that didn't seem holy to me.
The pheras[holy rounds of fire] were done and I was made to tie the nuptial thread around her neck, the thread that was about to bind together. This was the first time she looked at me with her teary eyes almost pleading to stop all this. I was helpless and I believed so was she. I had stopped in the mid, I didn't want to do this, for once I felt I was gather

Ahana******"Bride In Blue...Bride In blue...Bride In Blue..." I yelled throwing all the newspapers on the floor that had only Anvi in it and the headline stated, "Bride In Blue". I was supposed to be the talk of the town but all I received was a small corner in the newspaper. All the while my marriage was the talk of the town but on my big day that bitch Anvi snatched it from me. I didn't buy a lehnga worth Rupees 40 lakh so that I could get a place in the corner of the newspaper. I wanted to be in the limelight and if not for that stupid girl I would have been on the television."Anvi Shekhar you did it again. I won't spare you this time. Last time I only snatched your love but this time I will snatch every important thing from you, everything that gives you happiness. I will make you suffer." I swore on my death.********************Anvi******I was following him, the guy in a red

Author******Nikhil's eyes lighted up as soon as he saw his grandma standing at the door. Shakuntala came and sat on the bed and when patted her lap, Nikhil like a three-year-old kept his head on her lap. She started caressing his hair lovingly. Nikhil for a while forgot all the mishappenings of his life and closed his eyes enjoying his grandmother's love.Shakuntala was waiting for him to speak up."Grandma." Nikhil broke the silence that was spread into the room for the last ten minutes just like she had anticipated."Yes, Nikky," Shakuntala called him from the nickname he never allowed anyone to call him except her."Everything is changed," he said. His dejected voice made Shankuntala uneasy."Hmmm.""I am scared.""Hmmm.""And worried too.""Hmmm." Irritated of his grandma's monotonous redundant answers he got up from her lap and sat in front of her. Looking sadly at her he asked, "Wha

Anvi************The lunch was prepared by aunty. I wanted to help but she denied saying I am a new member and she won't allow her daughter to cook anytime soon. Not even in my own house, I was treated like this by my mother. Everyone gathered for lunch on the dining table even Nikhil. He was behaving normal, very normal, and had startled uncle and aunty with his presence but Nirvana and grandma were fine with it as if they knew he will come.Aunty had prepared a lot of dishes and most of them were my favourite. I was shocked to see Nikhil's appetite. I didn't realize that I was staring at him until he looked at me raising his eyebrows making me avert my gaze."Why are you all looking at me like that?" Nikhil asked as not only me, everyone else was quite stunned on the quantity of food he had filled his plate with."Nothing, you don't eat this much generally," Uncle replied."Dad, I am famished. I haven't eaten anything sin

Only if I would have paid a little more attention.I went out to talk with Russell my assistant and listening to all that happened I got angry, not on him but myself. Already things were not going well in my personal life and now because of my stupidity and carelessness, I lost the deal as well.

Anvi******As soon as we reached home I went straight inside my room without even sparing a glance at Nikhil. I didn't want him to witness my state as I was not ready for the questions he might ask.I changed my clothes, went into the shower, and stood under the cold water for a while. I wanted to calm myself. The revelations had shaken the ground within me, had distorted my already disrupted peace.Why did Mom do that? Why?My head was throbbing in pain and even crying in the shower didn't help. After a few minutes when I thought I might catch a cold if I stay longer in the shower I got out and changed into my nightwears. My hair was still wet and I didn't let it dry.I sat into the balcony and let the cool breeze show it's affects on my hairs and as well as on me."Anvi" I heard Nikhil.Oh Shit! I ignored him and he was here to check up on me. I was just hoping he wouldn't ask me anything about what happened

Anvi************"Nikky, if I get any complaints from her, I will beat you with my new Prada heels." Grandma scolded Nikhil, making everyone chuckle instead of Nikhil Arora, who gulped in fear hearing her."This moment needs to be recorded," said Nirvana before taking out his camera and making the video of the scared form of my husband while grandma was giving him instructions on how to treat me."Shanku, enough. It's my turn now," said Dad. I had thought he will hug him and say some words of affection. Like I had anticipated he did the same but with me and to Nikhil he gave strict instructions regarding me."Di, are you sure you were born in our house?" Arpit questioned."Why?""Because I feel you have always been an Arora." I agreed to Arpit as they all love me like their own. Everyone was sad not because their son was leaving them but because their newly found daughter was leaving. I felt bad for Nikhil and decide

Anvi******Till I reached Nikhil's house, I was exhausted. My mind was drained of energy as even if I didn't want to, it kept thinking about what happened at the airport in India.To my relief, I hadn't had to share a room with Nikhil. Neither of us was at that stage of our relationship where we would live in the same room. It might take months or maybe years for us to reach that level. I had no idea whether we would be able to work on our relationship or not.I didn't want to strain my brain which was already tired and decided to sleep peacefully in the room adjacent to Nikhil's. I wasn't hungry so I denied Nikhil's offer of dinner.Since I never slept in an all darkroom I didn't switch off the bedside table lamp before sleeping.Tiredness took over me and I slept when my head hit the pillow.**************Nikhil**************A lot was going on inside my head and I wasn't able to comprehend how to deal with t

Anvi******"Why does he own such a big house, Di?" I questioned Mrs.Chetna whom I have started to call Di as she was older than me while sipping the luscious hot coffee prepared by her."He is planning to bring all his family here in London itself," she replied, taking a seat beside me in the garden of the house."That's very thoughtful of him. Otherwise, I have seen people who don't care about their family once they stand on their feet." That was a fact that I stated. Nikhil did have great thinking."Nikhil is different. He thinks of his family's needs before he thinks of himself."Chetna Di had a proud smile as well as admiration in her eyes for Nikhil. He indeed was someone intriguing that I was thriving to know more about him.I was enjoying the hot coffee thinking whether to ask Chetna Di if she had switched off the lights of my room last night when I heard her calling me, "Anvi.""Hmmm.""Last night Nikhil told me

After contemplating on which one I should go with I decided on the black one.Then came the turn of watches. She had a thing for my watches. She loved my collection. I knew any would do but still, I wanted to be the best for her so I chose the best one, the black Rado watch Nirvana had gifted me on my last birthday.After I put on my blazer and my shoes I was ready, ready to go to my wife, to bring her back to me.After I descended the stairs I looked at the strained faces of my family and friends. I was stressed but not as much as them. I was mindful that Anvi and I together will turn things in our favour."You, ok?" Namit asked, smiling. He knew how not to make m

She made Anvi turn towards the mirror once again to make her see the reality. "Look at yourself. Your eyes are like Suhana. Your nose, your smile, your dimples, and even your hair colour. You are her replica. Didn't you find it bizarre that she used to cry whenever you used to get hurt?" Anvi recalled how Suhana would go crazy whenever she used to find Anvi in pain but at the same time she also had witnessed Rita in pain for her."She is your mother and a mother can never see her children in pain.""You used to cry as well for me," Anvi replied sternly."Anvi, beta, you need to believe me."

Author******"Are you okay?" Nikhil questioned Anvi over the call."It's the tenth time you called me in the last hour," Anvi replied, rolling her eyes."Because I am worried." Nikhil's perturbed voice didn't settle well with Anvi. She sighed before assuring her husband," I am fine, Nick. Your wife is quite strong. Don't underestimate her."It had been seven days since Anvi was rescued. When she was abducted Nikhil had lied to her colleagues that Anvi had an accident. He had managed things for her in his wife's absence. Nikhil used to make sure she wasn't alone. Though he wasn't able to arrange any security team for her because of the money crunch he was facing, he used to drop and pick her up daily. He would call her numerous times, keep a check on her, and would text her every hour."I am not underestimating you, sweetheart. But I am petrified of what could happen to you if...."Anvi cut Nikhil off in mid as she said, "Nothing would happen

Namit and Dhriti had cooked her favourite dinner while Niharika and Jai were narrating our childhood tales to her."Really? He did that?" Anvi asked Jai, pointing towards me. I was oblivious to what exactly they were talking about. I stood at a distance and was only staring at my wife lovingly."You won't believe what he did afterward," Namit said."Tell me, please." she was so enthusiastic. I was relieved but my heart wasn't serene.My love for Anvi had gotten deep that I had started to develop fear inside of me; fear of losing her. The days she wasn't with me were the worst days of my life. It felt as if someone had given me slow poison.I would have died if I wouldn't have been able to find her. Seeing her after so many days I realized I was madly, deeply in love with her.Never had I t

Author******"Nikhil, why don't you sleep for a while. You haven't slept a wink." Dhriti suggested while Nikhil was going through the CCTV footage of the area where Anvi was kidnapped. It was on the same day when she was abducted about three days ago."I am fine," Nikhil said. His sleep was gone. He was wide awake at three in the night skimming through the CCTV footage he had acquired through his friend Namit's help."No, you are not. You haven't even eaten anything." Dhriti placed the plate of freshly chopped fruits in front of him."Let the boys do the rest of the work." Dhriti gestured towards Namit, Arjun, and Jai who were busy talking to the influential people to find Anvi. The truth of her kidnapping was still kept hidden. Namit had very well handled the media who had gotten the hint while Jai and Arjun were just one step behind from finding the culprit."How could I?

Jai asked. He had been with Nikhil for the past half an hour but nothing

Anvi nibbled Nikhil's lip and when got the chance, she explored his mouth with equal passion.Nikhil hurriedly took the tucked-in shirt out of her high waist jeans and touched her bareback. Anvi shivered and pressed her body more to Nikhil's who was supporting his back on the worktable of his office cabin.They pulled back after they were out of breath.
