Chapter 15 epic sorry

On reaching the hotel suite adhya started crying loudly. Her parents and grandfather got worried about her.

" What happened adu? Why are you crying beta? Did you fight abeer? should I talk to him? "Devrat got worried looking at her miserable state

"Drishti what has happened to her haan You are with her all day did the Shekhawat family tell her something?"Ashish asked in an angry voice to his wife

" I dont know Ashish, she was lost all the time while shopping then after dinner she went with Abeer to the poolside ... yes and then she told me that she is having a headache. So we came back and abeer himself dropped us and he was behaving normally. He was also worried about her health, he suggested visiting a doctor too, but Adhya refused"

Devrat sat near adhya and started pressing his temple to help her with her headache.

Aadya hugged her dadu, "what happened to my doll haa tell me beta? "

" Dadu... I am... I am... so foolish dadu

Bewkoof hoon mein, why I never care for the surroundings while talking. And you know na I dont have any filter in my mouth. I did a mistake dadu and now everything is finished ."

" What mistake? " Ashish was anxious.

' I .. I, "then adhya narrated all-day happenings that happened in the garden and then at the poolside

"You did what? "drishti shouted at her

" Stupid girl you know what place rudra has in that house, ooh my God! what if he will broke this alliance. I cannot believe how stupid you can be. I am sure they will call us anytime to break the news of calling off this engagement"

"And they are right too as who will want a daughter in law who calls his elder brother in law Hitler. Main medal doongi iski biwi ko ,ab dekh kal vo tujhe medal denga " drishti said angrily to her ( i will give medal to his wife now see he will give you medal tomorrow )

Listening to her mother,adhya again started her crying session at a high pitch than before.

"Drishti stop it! adu listen to me beta you agree that you did a mistake" , and nodded at his father

"Then you should apologise to him and trust me he will not call off the wedding for this silly reason. we all will go to say sorry to them on your behalf ok now sleep princess, and no more crying ok ."Devrat tried to calm her .

Adhya nodded at her dadu and left for her room to sleep

"I will talk to them tomorrow you people just support me, I think I know how to handle this situation"

"What do you think papaji he will forgive this? " drishti asked in a worried tone.

"Hmm I think rudra is mature enough, he knows adhya is being childish in this ."

That night not a single member of the khurrana family was able to sleep peacefully they were scared for adhya's future.

**********"""""""""""""""""""************

Next morning Shekhawat mansion.

Abeer, gauri and garima were eagerly waiting for rudra at the breakfast table, they were scared of rudra's reaction and praying for Adhya.

Rudra entered the dining hall all ready for the office, he greeted everyone and started his breakfast. As soon as he finished with his breakfast he bid his bye to all the family members before he can leave.

Gauri stopped him " rudra we want to talk about something ."

" Ji " he turned on his heels to face his mother.

"Beta I know what Adhya did, I mean said about you.." ..

" It's ok maa she is just behaving childish and it suits her age too. I didn't mind it so relax I have an important meeting to attend, so excuse me ."

Garima and gauri sighed in relief.

But Abeer decided something for Adhya.

After Rudra's departure, gauri Shekhawat called the khurrana family to the mansion as they want to discuss something important. The khurrana family knows what the important matter is but they have to handle the situation now.

After an hour they all were sitting in the drawing-room with Shekhawat

Family. To their relief rudra was not present there at that time, he was attending an important meeting in the office. There was tension in the air.

Devrat cut the silence and started speaking.

" Mrs Shekhawat, I know adhya did a very big mistake yesterday night. She told us everything and she was feeling very guilty too. See Mrs Shekhawat we all are very sorry for her misbehaviour I hope that you can take this mistake as her childishness and forgive her ".

"And I hope this mistake is not going to affect the alliance "

Gauri Shekhawat answered him after some minutes.

" See mr Khurrana I will not lie to you I felt bad what Adhya said about rudra but we have heard more than this some people say he is stone-hearted,khadoos and what else But for us he is a gem, a soft-hearted and a family-oriented person ."

" I am sorry auntyji, please forgive me please don't say like this I am feeling guilty ".Adhya cut her talk in between.

" I am not finished yet Adhya ." Listening to Gauri's strict tone Adhya got more traumatise. Devrat knows how Adhya is scared of a loud voice ., so he just squeezes her hands to calm her down. As Devrat knows that talking in between or cutting elders' talk is not acceptable in traditional families ., but Adhya had to learn a lot.

"But you know what I like most in your blabbering, is your concern about his loneliness and your thought about his marriage. And don't worry about his wife as we both will give her a medal for bearing with Hitler, right .so it's ok beta, and we are not even thinking about breaking this alliance ok so relax ."

Tears started falling from adhya's eyes.

Garima rushed to her and wiped her tears " no beta, no need to cry, we didnt mind it nor did rudra as you prove yourself to be a clean hearted person. It's ok Kyun didi "

"Yes, of course, come on now, the jeweller is arriving shortly we have to select rings ."gauri Shekhawat tried to cheer her up.

Gauri noticed her pale face when she talked in loud voice. She was glad that she didn't hear rudra's loud pitch yet or else Adhya will definitely ditch abeer and make a run back to London.

Saara Ishq ka bhoot Uttar Jata iska. ( all love must have gone ) .

"Maa but I think she should apologize to bhai he deserves a sorry at least. "Abeer first time spoke in all this conversation that to in a serious tone. Gauri smiled at her second son who care for rudra's respect more than anyone in this house. She was sure that abeer will able to balance Adhya and family effortlessly after marriage.

"Ok, fair enough, so you can take her to rudra after the selection of rings "

Adhya understood that abeer is angry with her, she doesn't want to go near that rude man but she has to do this as it was her mistake only.

After the selection of rings,abeer true to his words took adhya to their office.

For adhya, it is a daunting job to face rudra again. On the way to the office abeer didn't speak a word with adhya nor did Adhya initiate the talk as she know her apology will not be accepted by him until rudra forgive her.

In the office

Sameer Ahuja and rudra attended the meeting and now they were sitting in rudra's cabin. Rudra and Sameer were friends from their childhood days. Sameer is the CEO of Ahuja Designs, a firm that deals in designing homes and interiors.

Sameer noticed some tension on rudra's face so he enquired about it. Rudra never hides anything from Sameer as he is the only one who can suggest or scold rudra ., they were friends for life.

Rudra told him about adhya's blabbering Sameer laughed holding his stomach

"I want to meet this girl .she must be something who dared to speak the truth at least. I must say I am already impressed by her ."

Mahesh entered the cabin ' sirr abeer sir and miss Khurrana wanted to meet you should i "

"Send them in "

"See god fulfil all my wishes," Sameer said smilingly.

Abeer entered the cabin,adhya was hiding behind abeer holding his shirt in her fist.

"From when do you need permission to enter my cabin? Abeer ."rudra asked Abeer in a strict tone.

"Bhai adhya has to say something to you "

"Hmm"

Listening to rudra's stern voice Adhya started sweating badly, she was not ready to leave Abeer's shirt Abeer took hold of adhya's hand from his back and pull her beside him. Aadya kept her eyes downcast as she didn't want to look at rudra.

On the other hand, Sameer knows from the look on rudra's face that he is going to tease Adhya. So he is ready to watch an interesting show.

" I am sorry, mr Shekhawat for my words, I didn't mean it .please forgive me this time, I promise you I will never  repeat this mistake"

"So you mean to say I am not a Hitler and what was that Haan Mohabbat ka Dushman "rudra asked raising one eyebrow at her ( enemy of love )

   " No .....not at all, actually I am scared of you that's why .."

  " Scared of me do I look so bad ." Rudra was just testing her

  " No   ...no, you are handsome even more handsome than Abeer, but you are dangerous too and my Abeer is a sweetheart".

 " Dangerous, "my Abeer " rudra said in an astonishing tone.

"Yes, when you glare with your mesmerizing hazel green eyes na, I got

Scared ., my brain stopped working and I finally  immobilized"

    "So my eyes are mesmerizing"rudra raised one eyebrow at her.

  "Yes, I am telling you if you just work on your smile na then you will look more ho.....handsome ." she was going to say hot but she stopped herself in time.

Abeer was shocked to watch Adhya, as she uttered whatever is coming into her mouth ., he rubbed his palm on his face

"Adhya, what are you ....' Abeer tried to put some sense in his girlfriend who is behaving like a fool.

Listening to Abeer's warning tone she understood that she is again making some mistake.

  " No ....yes I mean see na I again got nervous in front of you. Mr Shekhawat, I don't know how to talk like elders or you know do intellectual discussion. But I only know is that I love your brother and I want to spend my life with him.

I never want to do something that will hurt Abeer believe me I just uttered nonsense that time, please don't call off my engagement if you want you can punish me for my mistake I will take it happily ."

     "  It's ok, forget it ."Rudra's heart melted at her love confession, Adhya's eyes were telling him that she is not lying and when he saw abeer's eyes turned moist on her confession. , Rudra can bear anything in the world but not tears in Abeer's eyes. All this time rudra was just testing her values and beliefs and she passed with flying colours.

 

     "Really " Adhya was surprised

  "I dont know about you but my words are my final decision till now," Rudra spoke with determination.

"Thank you, thank you so much "she got excited like a child who got her favourite chocolate.

"Hello my lady, abeer I must say I am impressed by your choice ." Sameer meets Adhya as till now he was sitting on the adjacent chairs and watching the interesting scene.

Abeer touched Sameer's feet for the blessing as he is like an elder brother to him, Sameer stopped him in middle and hugged him .abeer introduced adhya to Sameer.

Adhya also touched his feet.

'why you people tend to make me  old man, you know I am still young and  you know some people are not even married at my age, right rudy "

He deliberately teased rudra who just ignored his comment

"Now come on we will go for lunch you know your fiancee is very rich, he owns several hotels in this state ." 

Adhya looked at Abeer who nodded in yes

This exchange got noticed by the other two men who were present in the room.

" Woah! Adhya can you please give some tips to soniya my wife, on how to follow your husband. You know she is too controlling, right now she is in Mumbai at her  parent's place so I am breathing relaxed or else I have to take permission from  her to breathe also "

"Come on bhai,soniya bhabhi,  is a goddess"

"Yes of course, when I am denying this, she is goddess puri kaali MAA hai " ( kali maa is the goddess of anger )

This statement made adhya laugh, Abeer also laughed with adhya. Rudra who was witnessing this scene, smiled looking at the couple's happy faces. He just wants his brother to be happy like this.

  " Well you guys carry on, next meeting will be starting in less than an hour so I cannot join you ." Rudra denied lunch.

" Rudy come on, ok we should order something here only "Sameer came up with a solution.

"So what will you like to have Adhya ?"

Adhya again looked at Abeer ., Abeer blinked his eyes in assurance. Adhya was still feeling scared of Rudra's reaction ., she doesn't know what if rudra doesn't like her presence in his office.

"Whatever you will like to order, I am ok with it "

Sameer smiled at her antics, he understood that rudra is the reason for Adhya's nervousness. So he ordered some famous dishes for lunch.

All the time Sameer shared the childhood embarrassing incidents of Abeer and rudra which Adhya was listening carefully. After listening to one of that embarrassing incidents she couldn't hold it and started laughing out holding her stomach. Sameer also laughed with her, he was happy for Abeer and proud of his choice too.

Rudra and abeer winked at each other and then started.

" Excuse me are you laughing at my brother, " Rudra asked in his cold voice, Adhya flinched, she composed herself and nodded in no.

" So are you laughing at my brother" 'abeer asked her in his strict voice?

Tears pooled in Adhya"s eyes, she lowered her head and muttered a small sorry.

On which  Abeer laughed and rudra smiled doing hi-fi to each other. Adhya understood that they are making fun of her .sameer patted her head lovingly, " "you morons don't bother her. Adhya doesn't worry I am on your side dear. "

Adhya smiled in tears. Abeer to

Came forward and muttered a sorry. He tried to wipe her tears but she pushed his hand away.

Abeer bid bye to rudra and Sameer.As he doesn't want to get scolded by Adhya in front of his brothers.

  On the way back to hotel beer used his charm as always and Adhya got melted by his talent.
