*Abhivanth Pov* I glanced at the door after hanging up the call from the party office intimating me about the speech which can ruin Aahil’s career day after tomorrow. They said he already knows about it but didn’t react. Did he have another plan or is there something else going on in his head? I left the room and glanced at the dining table to see everyone present except Dileep, who seems to be fine as per his secretary. I walked near to the table with determination, and Aahil glanced at me before serving his food and started having it. “Did you hear about this?” I asked, sitting at my place raising my tone, hoping Premila would will say something after this. “Yes! I got to know about it this morning.” He replied, continuing to have his food. “And you are sitting here having your food?” I asked composing my surprised look. “I thought it was dinner time.” He replied, and everyone frowned at him along with me. “What happened?” Premila asked, to which he shrugged and just had hi
*Tajwar Pov* After holding the briefcase, I glanced up to see her staring at the wall lost in her thoughts holding the carriage. I walked near to her and took it from her hands, which she couldn’t even feel. I frowned and placed my hand on her shoulder before shaking her a little. “What happened?” I asked her frowning when she glanced at me. “Nothing!” she replied, shaking her head, and I sighed before circling my arm around her waist. Before she could react, I pulled her to me and said, “Are we back again to the word nothing? Tell me what happened?” “I… I am thinking about Aahil.” She replied, looking away from me, and I slowly nodded. “Let’s see if he does something, which can stop tomorrow’s meeting. Do not worry much about it.” I said, and she nodded before trying to move back. “Let’s go!” I mumbled releasing her and started walking outside the room, but stopped when I saw her standing at the same spot. “Don’t you need to be downstairs?” I asked frowning. “No!” she mumbl
*Abhivanth Pov* “Where is Tajwar?” I asked Premila after sitting before the television along with her and Mridula. She shrugged and just concentrated on the TV. If it was a few days back, then she would have asked Mridula about him. Aahil seems to be out, and we don’t know what will happen now in this meeting and what will Aahil do. “What do you think, Mridula? Will Nipuna say anything against Aahil?” I asked, to which Mridula shook her head in the negative but didn’t glance at me. “There must be some other reason for her hate towards me.” I whispered to Premila and she immediately looked away. “What is it?” I asked frowning. “She knows that she is not in contact with her parents because of you.” she replied in a whisper, and I stared at her in shock. “What?” I asked not believing it. “Yes! She was crying one day as your sister didn’t accept to come here and visit her. So, I told her the truth.” she replied shrugging. “But I didn’t ask for her to be kept away from her parent
*Mridula Pov* “Why would she even do that? I met her a few days back, and she was literally glowing.” Nipuna asked, breaking the silence when we are on the way to Dileep’s flat. “We will know when we reach there. Did you get the card to enter the flat?” I asked staring outside. “Yes! I can’t believe that he just walked away and reached home just because she locked herself inside a room. He could have stayed and cleared the matter right?” she mumbled. “Maybe he was in shock and chose to give her time. He is really upset.” I replied defending him. “I know!” she said and patted my hand. “Amrin!” she shouted, entering the flat. “He said she locked herself in her workroom.” I commented, and it took us a few minutes to reach the room after searching others. “Amrin!” she said, knocking on the door, and she immediately opened it. “What are you both doing here?” Amrin asked us with her tear-stained face. “To have a word with you.” Nipuna replied and she moved back, allowing us to ent
*Mridula Pov* He wants us to start a family? Is he for real? I thought, frowning and glanced at Aunty and Uncle talking with Nipuna’s dad. “I will stay here with her.” Aahil said when Aunty started thinking to stay with Nipuna. “Ok! We will leave and come tomorrow morning.” Aunty said and started walking out along with Uncle and Nipuna’s dad. “Shall we leave too?” Tajwar asked and then I glanced at his face, which is covered with a small smile. “I will come after talking to the doctor regarding the food she has to take.” I replied, looking away and he held my hand for a second before leaving. I stood still for a second before moving towards the bed where two perfect couples are there lost in their own worlds. Informing them regarding the discharge after two days as told by the doctor a few minutes back and left the room to take care of the food arrangements for them from home. On the way near to the entrance, I saw the doctor and asked her the instructions and then waited for
*Tajwar Pov* I continued to have my food thinking why did Mom asked such a question with so much anger. I frowned, not getting any answer for that and glanced up to see everyone is having their food in silence. Why are they making a big deal out of this? He just had a crush and didn’t even act on it and she is now his sister-in-law. She is not even that close to him unlike with Dileep. I frowned more before glancing at Dileep and thought why did I not know how close friends they are. I shook my head and just finished my food. “So, who will assist you in the arrangements?” Dileep asked Mridula when we all stood up. “Aahil!” she replied, not even looking at us and just walked away holding the dishes. “Didn’t expect that.” Dileep mumbled while Mom just frowned to herself before walking away along with Dad. “Listen Aahil…” Nipuna started to say placing her hand on his shoulder, which he swatted away and climbed the stairs. “Why are you three brothers so stupid?” she mumbled frowni
*Tajwar Pov* “What is it, Mridula? It is getting too late for you to return to the room.” I said finally after four days when she walked inside at the usual time. “I have work!” she replied, not even looking at me and started walking towards the washroom. “Today I am not going to let you walk away.” I said, holding her wrist and pulled her into my embrace making her look at me. “But I really had to work. Aahil too stayed with me until now.” She said, fidgeting in my hold. I stilled in my position remembering how they both were laughing today when I returned home between discussing the matters. I brushed away the thoughts before glancing at her face. “This work will not be there after the engagement right?” I asked, placing my other hand over her cheek staring into her eyes. “No!” she mumbled but didn’t move from her place, and I smiled before kissing her, to which she responded after a minute. “Ok! I was asked to buy myself a proper attire for engagement. Shall we go tomorrow
*Amrin Pov* “Dileep!” I whispered his name playing my fingers over his chest, and he just groaned, slowly before drifting off into sleep again. “Dileep!” I called him again to which he finally opened his eyes. “What happened?” he asked frowning. “Today at the engagement, I felt really welcome. However, for many numbers of times, I felt like no one was there at my side. I mean my friend will be there along with Tanmai sir, but still you know… family.” I replied before glancing up to stare at his face. “We all are your family.” He said frowning. “I know! But, what about before marriage?” I asked and he slowly nodded like he can understand. “What do you want me to do?” he asked smiling. “Can I… can I invite my foster family?” I asked and he immediately frowned. “That woman insulted you, Amrin.” He replied shaking his head. “I know! However, she is calling from the past month asking for forgiveness. I should forgive her, right? She was the family for some time to me.” I mumbled,
