Jai pov "Where are you, princess? You are scaring me." I ran my hand in my hair. "Bhai, come here fast." Imagining the worst, I jogged towards Rashi's voice. She pointed me in the direction of the gifts. I was awed at the view. Someone had gifted her a beautiful baby pink pillow with a Barbie print and she must be sleepy so she kept her head on the pillow and slept. All the other gifts were dispersed all over the place. Here I was going bananas searching for her. Gently I lifted her. She stuck to me like a koala. Carefully I changed her clothes and tucked her into bed. She must have been too tired to sleep like that. It was too difficult to make her rest. She is hyper-energetic. The following morning I was heading for the office when Dad called me. " Jai, meet me in my study in the evening. I need to discuss something." "If it is urgent then I can come immediately. It is still time for my first meeting. " I stood near Dad. " Nothing that requires immedi
Anaira Pov Today some important guests are coming and I'm supposed to get the guest room ready. Aunt had told me to even organize the room next to mine. His staff is escorting him. Why does he need one? There are so many staff here. " Why are you bothered?" My inner voice spoke. " What type of person would he be? He will live next to my room." I answered my inner voice. " Will you do some work or just stand there like a statue?" Aunty yanked my arm. " So…my aunty. " I stuttered seeing her angry. " I have finished everything here and am going to the kitchen." " They will be here by lunchtime. Prepare it fast. Don't you utter a single word to your uncle? Now go. " She pushed me out. A lone tear escaped from my eyes. I don't know what I have done to her that she treats me like that. Uncle, Leena, and Sheena love me so much, but Aunty doesn't even treat me as a human. I started with the preparation of lunch. Arjun Pov "Jai, we could have easily
Jai pov " What are you doing Arjun? You are not supposed to do it? I have not brought you here to do all these things." I shouted at the top of my lungs. I felt guilty seeing Arjun doing all these things. " Take a chill pill bro. We are not in our house. Your would-be wife would get scared seeing you like this." Arjun patted my shoulder " You shouldn't be the one to be concerned about it. Now put that broom and come with me. I need to talk to them. They can't treat you like this." I yanked Arjun's arm and dragged him with me. "Listen, Jai, we are guests here and we need to abide by their regulations. Anaira told me that I needed to keep my room tidy. Aunty doesn't appreciate untidiness. Moreover, what is the harm in cleaning the place I'm living in? That is the least I can do. As such, I had no work to do and I was feeling bored sitting idle. Now tell me what brings you here? " Arjun pulled my arm and made me sit on the small bed which was the only furniture in t
Jai Pov At first, I ignored the voice considering it as their family matter but then curiosity took over me and I went near the door. What I saw astonished me. A man who appeared to be of my age was kneeling in front of Aunty with joined hands. His back was towards me. " Aunty, you had promised me that you would marry her to me. I am patiently waiting for you to initiate but you are just ignoring the topic. Please, aunty, I want to marry her." He said in a pleading tone. " First stand up and don't behave like a crybaby. When I have promised you that she is yours then believe it. Behave like a man and not some crybaby." The aunt spoke in an authoritative tone. " Who gave you this right? Gaurav you better get lost before I lose my control. Before you go, I want to make one thing clear. I will not marry her to you. In your opinion, she may be an orphan but she is not. She has me and I don't want to marry her to you. She is my responsibility." Uncle's voice echoed
Leena povI was about to take a nap after lunch when Sheena barged into my room and sat near me on my bed. She was fidgeting with her fingers and had a faraway look. She was in deep thought. I shook her shoulder to bring her back. “Dear sister, what is it? Do you want to speak to me but are unable to? “ I raised my brows and kept a finger on my forehead as if in deep thought. "Leena, I want to tell you something. Promise me you won't tell anybody.” She forwarded her hand and I kept my hand in reassurance. “ You know, in college, there is this .” She stopped abruptly. " What happened, Sheena? Tell me fast my heart is sinking, tell me before I die of a heart attack." I kept my hand on my heart. "Drama queen. Stop it. I'm going, I don't want to tell you anything.” She got up to leave, and I pulled her hand and made her sit.“ I will be serious now.” '" In college, I have been meeting this guy for some time.” She blurted in a go. “ Do you love him?” I quest
Leena Pov After wiping the droplets of water on my face, I opened my eyes to the view that stopped my heart. Kavya was struggling in the water. Before we all could even react we heard another splash and bingo two hands pulled Kavya into their embrace and swam to the shore. Since Kavya was coughing and breathing, she tipped her downwards on her knees and strongly patted her and she started coughing and spitting water. Arjun took her from Anaira. His eyes were glassy and red. I don't understand why he cares so much about the child. Is there something that I'm missing?“Anaira I would, “ Jai coughed."I mean we are very grateful to you for saving Kavya.” He joined his hands to show his gratitude.“She is a state-level swimmer.” Sheena barged in between. Kavya was stuck like a koala bear in Arjun's arm. Even Jai was comfortable with it. I found it weird that being a parent Jai should be more worried than Arjun, even Kavya should be with her father and not some
Jai Pov Both of us sat on the couch. My hands were on my knees and both palms were clasped together. I was wondering how to strike up a conversation. I was deep in my thoughts when Leena shook my shoulder. “ You wanted to tell me something. Please be fast. It is getting late, if my parents see us here together then they will misunderstand everything, and I don't want to lead them anywhere or give them false hopes.” “ Please don't get angry. I was preparing myself for this talk. It goes back to the time when Anita, my ex-wife, Kavya's mother, was ready for delivery. FlashbackIt was her baby shower that day and everyone was so happy. She was looking so beautiful in a pale blue saree with traditional jewellery, her head was covered with a veil. The blue colour suits her. That is why I specifically bought this saree for her. How did I get so lucky to have this beautiful lady as my wife with the child coming into our lives, I'm the luckiest man aliv
Jai Pov " Doctor, why didn't you stop her, or better yet, why didn't you tell me anything." I held the doctor's collar. " Prince, I had explained everything to her but she was adamant. I wanted to inform you but she said if I would tell then she would kill herself and put the blame on me and get my practice terminated. I'm sorry. Princess had asked me to give you this if anything happens to her during the delivery.” He handed me an envelope containing a letter. My lifeline, my sweetheart If you are reading this letter, it means I'm no more. You must be heartbroken right now but don't act rashly. Mind you not a single word to the doctor. I had threatened him not to tell you. Please forgive me, Jaan. I didn't have the heart to terminate the symbol of our love. What was its fault in this? I know I have given you a daughter, a princess, you had always desired. Don't blame her for anything, she is a part of me. Take care of her as you have always taken mine. It is my
Anaira Pov“ It feels like just yesterday, I had come to this house.” A hand on her shoulder disrupted her thoughts and she turned to find her husband standing there all dressed up for the event. His jet-black hair now has streaks of white. Lines have formed on his forehead but still, he is the most handsome man on earth. He has aged gracefully and is still the love of my life. “My dearest queen, the queen of my heart and my house, may I ask you what has occupied my queen’s mind so much that she didn't realise that she needs to finish dressing up for the occasion. Our guests must be waiting. Even Arjun and Raghav have arrived with your sisters.” Jai kneeled in front of me and kept his palm on mine. “ I was just remembering how we met and got married. Time flies. Today we are celebrating our thirtieth anniversary. Once again the house is filled with guests. Our children have grown up.” I was feeling nostalgic. My eyes were brimming with tears.“ I can understand. We should move out
Shh, it's me.” Amrit whispered in my ear. His warm breath caressed my neck. He started giving wet kisses on the nape of my neck. I arched my neck to give him more access. He turned to me and now I was facing him. His hand that was on my waist tightened. He pulled me closer. I can feel butterflies erupting in my stomach. A turmoil of unknown emotions erupted in my body Sudden stroke of thunder and lightning followed by a downpour disrupted our moment. “ OMG, it is raining. I love rains.” I shouted like a child who got their favourite chocolate. “ Do you want to go out and have a look?” Noticing our position and my excitement, I nodded shyly. Taking my hand in his he pulled me to the balcony. He pointed towards the left side where I saw a passage. When he switched on the light I saw a flight of stairs going towards the garden. He offered his hand which I took gladly. I was excited like a child. Leaving his hand I ran in the rain. “ Come, it is so fun playing in the rain. Com
Rashi Pov I am on cloud nine today as Amrit with his family is finally coming to make me his forever. Not in my wildest dreams did I think that Amrit would be a special force officer. Due to successfully completing this mission, he is promoted. I thought he was a mousette and worked in that parlour and was a very ordinary person. He also lied to me but it was just a cover-up to misguide his enemies. Not only this he also holds 45 % shares in his grandfather's company. His uncle and cousins are urging him to join the company and he said he will join once he accomplishes something in life. . Sitting on a horseback he was looking like a prince. The baraat procession filled with colours of joy and fervour stood at our entrance. I was decked up in a wine lehenga accompanied by traditional jewellery. Like the princess that I was, I wore my grandmother's jewellery. All beautiful and elegant. Feeling someone’s presence I lifted my eyes to look at the person through the mirror and I coul
Boom ,Boom .Another set of guns fired could be heard. Before anyone could react a voice from the loudspeaker reverberated in the hall. “ Don't try to do anything foolish. We have got you all covered. No use running away.” Hearing the voice the head pulled Rashi and pushed other girls in the opposite direction and started to run . All of a sudden he felt a hand around his neck and cold metal on his forehead. “ Don't you dare move or else I won't hesitate in burying all these bullets in your head.” “ Amrit, oh I think you have a short lived memory. You have forgotten that the life of your family is in my hands. Your little girl , your mother and your brother.” He started laughing menacingly. “I have not forgotten anything but I know they are in safe hands, I made sure of it. Now leave them.” Amrit hid Rashi behind his back. A lady dressed in uniform entered. “ Good day sir all the arrangements have been made.” She reported. “Listen girls, we had made arrangements for your rescue.
Third person Pov “You have come to save me. Please get me out of here. This place creeps me . Their boss will be here any time. Please help me.” Immediately I ran into his arms but didn't feel his hand around me . He was cold and distant. The feeling of security and warmth which I used to feel with him around is lacking today. Not feeling anything from his side I lifted my head and gazed into his eyes. His face was stoic and his eyes were cold . He pushed me and started laughing . A sinister laugh sending chills. “ You are a naive princess. Why will I save you , when I am the one who is responsible for your kidnapping.” With an evil grin he pushed her away. Due to the force she fell on the floor with a thud. He crouched to her level.“The fact that not only you are beautiful but also a princess was a cherry on top. I wanted to see that how it feels to fuck a princess. Was it the same or different?” He traced her cheek with his thumb and then pinched her hard. She shrieked.“ Sho
Third Person Pov “Is there some problem? Rest assured madam, he is the best.” The receptionist asked to see them standing still. “ Oh! Are you sure? If somehow I Am not satisfied then it won't be good for you.`` Rashi gave a sarcastic reply. “ Madam, please take a seat. I will give you my best.” The mousette spoke. Rashi sat on the chair with her legs on his lap. “ I am too tired to even move a finger. I hope you won't mind taking off my sandals. It is so hot here. Is your air conditioner not working? Hey you, go and check first then start massaging.” Rashi spoke with arrogance after all she was the owner of the mall. The mousse started his work. Something had gotten in Rashi today. Every now and then she would find faults in the mousse and scold him very badly. It was very rare for Rashi to behave like that. After ending their session when they were at the parking lot, a hand pulled Rashi and clasped her mouth. She felt something poking her. It was then she realized that she
Third Person Pov “ Ma please meet Amrit’s parents. I agree his family is not as reputed as ours but for my sake please meet them once.” Rashi was whining like a five-year-old. Amrit is her colleague with whom she is in love and has accepted his proposal. He is tall and dark with brown mysterious eyes. He seems to be over cautious as if he is hiding something. Rashi is head over heels in love with him. Her parents didn't want this marriage to happen. They feel something's not right. Even Jai investigated but was unable to find any flaws. “ Bhai either he is as perfect as our sister thinks him to be or he has hidden everything perfectly,” Raghav reported his findings to his Jai. Rashi has fallen in love with the manager of one of the cafes she visits regularly. It turns out that once he had been saved by a pervert in a bar. They met a few times and eventually, she fell in love. She wants to marry him; everyone in her family is against their alliance. According to them, he wants
Third Person Pov “ It is time to bring the bride.” Panditji announced. In hindus it is a ritual that the bride’s mama(maternal uncle) brings the bride to the mandap for the marriage . Yashvardhan and Gyatri are Anaira’ s mama and mami and since leena and Sheena don't have any mama, Yashvardhan proposed to fulfill this ritual for them as well. The three brides with Yash and Gyatri came into view. They were all decked up in traditional Rajasthani dress and heavy jewelry. With heads bowed little and covered with dupatta( shawl), they resembled a real queen without the crown. As they walked through the path to the MAndap , the grooms were in awe seeing their brides. They wiped their eyes which were filled with tears of joy. When they were seated Panditji started the rituals. First of all he asked MA to tie the end of my stole with Anaira’s dupatta. In the same way it was done with the other two couples. “ Gathbandaan is performed. The bride’s parents should come forward to
Jai Pov “ What happened? Why has music stopped and why are you all not dancing? Starting with the music, I want to dance. My brother is getting married and I can't even dance.” He kept his sword and saffa in the chariot and joined our guests. He was dancing like crazy. “ It was so fun. Dancing in your own marriage.” Dad had to drag him from there. “ I think you had way too much fun and now you better sit here and don't you dare move till you are asked to.” Dad scolded him in a hushed whisper. Both Arjun and myself had a hard time stopping ourselves from giving a full-blown laugh. “ So bro, had a good time dancing at your own wedding.” I made a sarcastic comment. He huffed hearing my comment. The barat was taking a long time to reach.I wish I had wings so that I could reach her quickly and have a look of my queen in her bridal dress. Anaira Pov “ Barat will reach here any minute. Girls, are you ready.” Ma spoke while entering. She was looking tense. Tension lines were evide
