Tami's POV When Gaurvi and Shlok made their way over to Mihir and me, I braced myself. Gaurvi greeted Mihir warmly, and I could see the old pain flickering in his eyes. He responded politely, but the exchange was strained. Standing there, I felt like an outsider, witnessing a past love that had never quite faded away.“Mihir, how are you? It’s been a while,” Gaurvi said with a soft smile. “Good to see you,” Mihir replied, his voice tight but cordial.“How have you been?” Shlok asked, genuinely interested.“Good. Busy with work,” Mihir said, glancing at me briefly. “And you two?” he asked for the sake of asking. “We’re doing great, though morning sickness is worse now. ” Gaurvi said, her eyes shining with happiness. “And Tami, how are you?” she asked and hugged me with a broad and genuine smile. “I’m good, thanks,” I replied, trying to sound upbeat. “It’s good to see you both.”They moved on, and Mihir let out a breath he’d been holding. I reached out to touch his arm, trying to o
Tami's POV As the night wore on, I found myself scanning the party for Mihir, but he was nowhere to be found. My heart sank. He was already so upset, and I needed to find him. I stepped outside, breathing in the cool night air, and there he was, standing alone on the terrace.He must have sensed my presence behind him because he turned to see me standing there. His eyes were distant, lost in thought.“Mind some company?” I asked softly.He shook his head, trying to smile. “Not at all. I could use some.”I joined him, and we stood in silence for a few moments, just taking in the beauty of the night. The stars twinkled above us, and the sound of crickets filled the air. There was a certain tranquility to the moment that made me feel closer to him than I had in a long time.“Mihir, I know this isn’t how either of us imagined things would turn out,” I began, my voice trembling slightly. “But I want you to know that I’m here, and I’m trying my best. I know you’re hurt, and I understand w
Tami's POV Ron and Mahi were the next to be eliminated, leaving only Gaurvi-Shlok, Mihir, and I. The tension was palpable as the music played again. Mihir held me even tighter, his arms strong and secure around me.Everyone started to cheer for one or the other couple. All the guests were divided into two parties, some supported them while, Ron, Raj, and Myra were cheering for them while the rest were cheering for us. Finally, the paper was so small that it was impossible to stand on it without lifting me completely off the ground. Mihir scooped me up in his arms, but it must have been tiring and he had to dance as well carrying me so Mahi told me to wrap my legs around his waist to keep my balance, Roohi and Vihan also nodded at the suggestion and as they were supporting us, I did what they suggested.But as soon as I did that, I saw Mihir gulping and looking at me. I felt that it was maybe, I should not have done it, as it was a very intimate action and position but I realized it
Tami's POV " What is this about drawing circles? " Raj ji asked, even though I was curious to know it as all four of them were still laughing especially Mihir and Gaurvi. But Roohi changed the topic. The bottle was rotated again and it finally stopped, pointed towards Raj ji. He was asked to reveal the most romantic thing he had ever done for Myra, and his answer brought a blush to her cheeks, she shook her head but Raj told everyone how he took her to a romantic outing and proposed to her all over again after their wedding. All of them were surprised that the shy Raj could go to such lengths to impress his wife. The bottle was rolled again and this time it was Gauravi's turn, Ron asked her to describe the moment of their love story when she knew that it was Shlok who she wanted to spend her life with. " There were countless such moments, he saved my life so many times, and fought fiercely to save my life, but when we were caught in a very dangerous landslide and he saved me wit
Tami's POV " How can you allow him to flirt with you? I would not tolerate that." He said clenching his jaw and fist. Oh, how sweet and touching!! As if I care! Who does he think he is?? " Why?? Why would you not tolerate it? Who are you to decide what I am supposed to do? I have been tolerating your reckless behavior, am I not? " I asked. " Just remember that you are mine. Just mine. I will kill the bast***, for flirting with you. " He said. I could see he was jealous but I wanted to hear him accept it as I was tired of assuming things. " I don't understand, what is your problem? Are you jealous?? " I said. He glared at me and came closer. But before I could respond, he bridged the gap between us, his lips crashing down on mine in a kiss and I froze. He kissed me?? He claimed my lips all of a sudden and his mouth was burning hot while he claimed mine. Did he just kiss me? I was still standing there as if I was rooted there. Oh, God!! Why was he doing all that to me? I w
Tami's POV The night was a blur of passion and tenderness, of whispered words and shared breaths. Every touch, every kiss was a revelation, a discovery of a love that had been hidden beneath layers of pain and misunderstanding. For the first time, I felt truly connected to him, as if our souls were entwined in a dance that had no beginning and no end.He groaned and pressed his lower body to mine, making me aware of the evidence of him being aroused. I was feeling shy but the need to be with him was so much that all the inhibition vanished. We moved together in a dance as old as time, our bodies finding a rhythm that spoke of a yearning neither of us could deny. It was as if we were discovering each other for the first time, exploring the depths of our emotions and desires. The room was filled with the sounds of our breathing, our whispered names, and the soft rustle of sheets.When we finally came together, it was a moment of pure, unadulterated connection. I could feel his heartbe
Tami's POV " Ma'am, please go and rest, I will do the rest of the things, you have done the most of the chopping. " He said and just then I saw Mihir coming out and looking around. " No, I will help here, Please get the onions, I will cut them. " I said " Ma'am your eyes will hurt, I will chop them myself. " He said, peeling the potatoes, and mashing them. " Do as you are instructed to do. Get onions. " I said and he nodded and went to get onions. He brought some onions and said, " Ma'am, sir has woken up and is looking for you, I will make tea for both of you." Well, It seemed that he was looking for his Gaurvi. Just at the thought of it, fresh tears welled up in my eyes. I started peeling and chopping them very fine for the parantha. To hide my tears." What are you doing here so early in the morning?? Why are you crying like that?? " He looked concerned and then he saw me chopping onions. Wake up and see, I am not her. " Tami!! Why are you doing it? Stop it, the chef wi
Mihir's POV.Present time... Ron and Mahi were waiting for me and they looked angry and shocked. " What the hell did you do now, Bhai? She wants the divorce now. Already submitted the divorce papers to the court. " Mahi asked. " I don't know... But if that's what she wants, how can I stop her? " I said as was hurt. " Will you please tell me what happened between the two of you now? " Ron asked. " Why don't you ask her? " I was annoyed as I was still shocked with what happened. " Do you think we didn't try? But she is just crying. Did you say anything to her? Fought? " Ron asked. " No, she just came back from that damn seminar... We didn't fight about anything. " I replied. " We came here to meet her but we were shocked to know that she wanted a divorce. What happened? " Mahi asked. " I am still trying to make out what happened. And how?? " I said. " Do you want to divorce her? " Ron asked. " I don't know... " I said in a slow voice. " Tell me, dammit!! " He yelled at me.

Maurvi's POVAfter some of the rituals, Gautam said that he was very tired and wanted to sleep, but everyone laughed and started teasing him and the girls were also whispering naughty things to me making me blush even more.After some time I was sent to a room which was decorated beautifully with flower strings and aroma candles were lit there. There were rose petals scattered all over the place ... and were also on the bed in the shape of a heart.Oh God!!! It all was making things so obvious... my face was red as flower petals. I could not even imagine myself sitting there like it is shown in the movies so I kept standing there in the middle of the room. I was just too nervous. I knew that Gautam was really very excited about tonight. But I was just too shy. I was still trying to calm my racing heart when I heard the men talking. They were outside the room and we're teasing Gautam mercilessly, even asking him to use protection... Oh my God!! these men came without any filter in th
Gautam's POVWe reached there at the venue with Baraat. Uncle and aunty welcomed us. I got down the white wedding mare. Aunty welcomed me with an Aarti platter. Then did a few cute customs like holding the nose of the groom ( me ). After that, we came insideI had occasionally seen one custom in various weddings which was Feet washing ceremony of the groom. Once the groom entered the house of the bride on the wedding day, the bride's mother washes his feet with honey, curd, milk, ghee and sugarI personally never liked this custom. I didn't know what was the logic or the story behind it. But I refused to let aunty do this custom.I am just like her son... So it should be me who should be doing it not the other way around. She was as old as my mom and I could not let her wash my feet. So I refused to let her do that to me I washed my feet on my own. I didn't care if someone felt that I was trying to be some kind of reformer. I did what I felt was right.Then we were taken to the huge s
