Author's POV:
"Ji chachi, mai ker doongi, aap chinta mt kigea....... Byyy chachi(aunt) have fun."
(okk aunt I will do that, you don't worry... Bye)Samaira said to her aunt as her aunt told her to complete the laundry work over the call.
"Dadi (grand ma) here, I have kept your medicine and your herbal tea. Don't forget to take it." Samaira informed her Dadi while keeping all these stuffs on the night stand.
"I am going to clean the house for diwali. As you see, diwali is after 2 days and still I haven't clean any corner of the house." She said to Dadi worriedly.
"Ohh child, I wish I could help you.
You know, I am very ashamed of myself becoz, if I have given my son good morals, then you will not be suffering like this." Dadi (grandma) said with tears welled eyes."But don't worry Sama, I have faith in my God. He is watching every thing from heaven.
And I know the day is not far when you will be welcoming the happiness of your life.You will soon get the life you deserve beta." Dadi said with sweet genuine smile on her face."Ohh dadi.... I love you. I love you the most, you know naa...?" Samaira said while hugging dadi along with tears in her eyes.
After their emotional encounter Samaira started her task of cleaning the house.
On the other side Advay introduced himself in his new office, as it is last day of his colleagues before the starting of weekends for diwali festival.
After the introduction session he got busy in his work.
Advay is a very strict and punctual person when it comes to work.He sometimes become very much arrogant and never sees who is in front of him and snap at them at the very same time, if they have done any mistake.
There was a knock on his door which made him to come out from his work.
"Come in." He said in a bossy manner.
A peon in his 60's came with a duster and a mop."What is all this?" Advay asked in a polite tone, as the peon was very much older than him.
"Sahab, woo 2 din baad diwali hh Na, toh usi ki safai krni thi."
(Sir actually diwali is after 2days, so I have to clean the cabin.)Said the peon."Okk, but plz come after 1hr becoz now I am worki......... " His mother cut him in the middle
"No Advay, now you have done enough work for today.
Now let's go, we have to do shopping for diwali preparation. As this is your first diwali after you come back from Scotland."His mother said in a stern voice.
"But mom....."
"No means no Aadoo....." his mother said sternly while his father chuckled."Okk mam. Your wish my command." Advay said surrendering his hands up in the air.
They all smiled and left for diwali shopping.
___________________________Rishi's POV:
I choose a parrot green plane cotton shirt with white denim jeans. I combed my hair and sprayed my regular perfume and got ready for today's dinner.
I was on my way towards Sama's house, as we will leave together for the dinner.
I stopped my car in front of a sweet shop to buy some sweets for dadi as she love sweets.I paid my bill for sweets and just as I turned I bumped into someone.
"Bloody hell, can't you see?" Yelled a very beautiful girl on me, and I smiled seeing her out burst.
Well, she was looking very cute.....
"Oooooo..... Hlw.
What.....?I am talking to you Mr....""And why are you smiling like a fool?
What is here to smile huh....?"She asked with narrowed eyes.
"Well I am smiling on your stupidity, becoz let me tell you miss, I was the one who was paying the bill, but you......
You are the one who is standing close to me. Not even giving me a little space so that I can move.Okk, I know I am handsome, but it doesn't means that you will take advantage of this." I said to her mischievously with a smirk on my face.
"What....?
Who told you , you are handsome?Come back to reality Mr." Now this time she said with full attitude with smirk on her plumpy lips."And if you will keep standing here for such a long time, so when will others get the chance, huh?" she asked in her shrill voice.
"Anyways, I don't want to waste my time on arguing with you, If you are done, then move." she said irritatingly this time.
"So who is dying to listen you ear piercing voice?" I also snapped with equal attitude.
But still I want to fight with her more. I was having fun to irritate her.
When I was on exit, I turned back to see her expressions one last time, and found that she was already staring at me with full rage in her eyes with her hands on her hips.
I chuckled watching her reaction.
I like her feisty attitude with childish behavior, and not to forget her reactions.mashallah....! !
I find her different from any one else.
Soon I shrugged the thought and drove towards Mehra's residence._________________________Samaira's POV:
After completing the cleaning of the whole house I was resting in my room.
"Pheeee.. Pheeee... "
As soon as I heard the sound of the horn of car, I knew it who has arrived."Ohh shit....!!
I completely forgot about it." I mumbled to my self and run towards the main door before he use the doorbell."My god...!
why you didn't got ready yet?" Bhai asked."Wait. Don't tell me you forgot about this." Bhai answered to his own question before I could.
"Ummm... Actually no.
I didn't forgot about this.Umm... I was just busy." I lied to him looking anywhere but him."Don't lie to me baccha, becoz you are a terrible liar." Bhai said while sitting on the couch in the living room with narrowed eyes.
I knew it I cannot lie to him anymore so I just smile speeachly.
"Just give me 20 mins." I said with puppy dog eyes.
"Kya hoga iss ladki ka?"
(what will happen to this girl?) Bhai muttered under his breath but still I heard it."Just 20 mins, not a sec more than this." He said with stern face while I just rolled my eyes.
"I am in dadi's room. Call me when you got ready." Bhai said and I just nodded my head.
I made my way towards my room while debating with my self what to wear.
Becoz of lack of time I quickly choose a plane black anarkali dress.

I wore my heels and move towards dadi's room after taking my phone.
I heard dadi's and bahi laughter.
"Why you guys are laughing?
Tell me also." I said while entering inside the room.Both of them look in my direction and and stopped laughing.
"My god....!! Beta you are looking very beautiful." dadi complemented me after a good minute in silence, and I hugged her with small thanks.
"No she is not looking beautiful." Bhai said and me and dadi both looked at him shocked.
"Wow.. Wow..... Ladies.
Don't give me those looks, and let me complete.""Yes it's true that she is not looking beautiful.... Becoz you are looking heavenly gorgeous baccha. " Bhai complemented me, while dadi chuckled and I released a sigh of relief and muttered 'thx' shyly.
"Dadi we will be back within an hour. I have kept the water on night stand. And here take this milk." I told dadi while handling her turmeric milk.
"Okk baccha let's go." Bhai said and hugged dadi.
"Don't you dare to enter inside the house before 2 or 3 hours.
If I found you before it, then you both have to face consequences."Dadi warned us in a serious tone, while me and bhai shared a scared look.
While shooking our head we made our way out from the house and settled in the car, and drove towards our destination.
Advay's POV :For almost 15 mins I am searching a proper cloth in my closet for today's dinner, only in a towel around my waist."The black one will look good or the white one will look good?" I murmured to my self while looking in the mirror, while holding a white shirt in my one hand and a back shirt in my other hand.Finally after a good war in my mind about clothing, I choose the black shirt with dark blue denim jeans. I perfectly comb my hair after blow drying it.Spraying good amount of perfume which I have exclusively brought from Paris, I collect all my important stuffs, and I get all ready for tonight."Beta(child) are you going somewhere?" dad asked me just as I enter in the living hall.Before I could say anything, mom came from the kitchen with two cups of tea in a tray.I move forward towards mom, and took the tray from her a
Rishi's POV :I was browsing on my phone after completing my discussion with Advay. He told me that he will message me his answer at night."Samairaaaaaa...... ""Saliniiiiiiiiiii........ "Suddenly I heard two shrill voices. I get startled by this and jumped on my seat, due to which my brand new iPhone drop into my juice.My phoneeeeee....... I was crying mentally for my new phone.I look up to see the culprit for this and saw that sama was hugging a girl."Why her figure is looking so familiar?"I thought to myself as I was not able to see the girl."Man why these girls are hugging each other like, they are sisters who got lost from each other and are meeting after years...." I murmured to my self."Omg! Sama, look at you, You are looking so hot babes." she complimented sama.
Rishi's POV:I was taking glances of her. Finally after some time her so called close frnd decided to leave.They move out of the restaurant , but I can see them through my seat, from the glass window. That guy hugged her in same manner that he did before. I was a bit irritated to see them like this.And to add the fuel on my irritation, he kissed her on her cheek intimately. She also got shocked by this act. I clenched my jaw after watching this, but the nerve of that bastard, he was still not leaving her.After some couples of minutes, he was gone and she started to enter into the restaurant and this time her eyes met mine. We were looking at each other intensily."Come fast, why are taking so much time?" Sama asked her excitedly and on the very instant we broke our eye contact.I still can't understand, why we did this..
Advay's POV :We decided to leave, but I think girls didn't want to leave our company so soon. When we exit from the restaurant , we saw a Baarat coming towards us.(In in Indian weddings, the family of groom goes to the bride house or venue while dancing in a group with their family and friends.) We were just waiting for it to go, when Shalini dragged Samaira with her her in the crowd. "Hey sama lets go, it will be fun." Shalini said enthusiastically to Samaira while dragging her.
Samaira's POV:Yesterday night was one of the fun-filled night of my life. Yesterday when I came home, I saw dadi was still awake.I entered in her room and told her about my meeting with Shalu, and how our dinner went.Dadai was laughing heartily when I told her the story of Shalu's and bhai's dance. I also informed her that Shalu and Advay are coming to celebrate diwali with us to which she was very happy. Well now half an hour ago I got the call from Shalu and we decided to go on shopping today. After completing my daily work I dropped dadi and usha dadi (samaira's dadi frnd) in temple as some holly priest has come to recite katha (holly story reciting). Which is not going to end before 7 in the evening. I was checking some mails in my laptop then I heard the sound of my door bell. "Who could've co
Samaira's POV:I woke up early unlike my usual days, and a very bright formed on my lips."Happy diwali mummy papa."I wished diwali to my patents by kissing their pictures, that were kept in my wardrobe properly.I did my morning chores and tie my hair in a bun, wore my shorts and balck tank top and started cleaning my house with broom. After it, I mopped my whole house again.Till then dadi also woke up. I touched her feet and wished her happy diwali with lots of kisses on her cheeks.Dadi also wished me in the same manner and hugged me while patting my head lovingly.I called my uncle-aunty. First dadi wished them along with blessings and went back inside her room for bath and worship.Then I also wished them, but got amazed when they also wished me back.Every year whenever I whished them, they always
Rishi's POV :"Finally done." I breathed out after I complete the work given by Sama. I checked it one more last time, and started descending the stairs leading the way to living room. I entered in to the living room and saw that girls were talking about something, or better we say teasing each other, becoz I can clearly see Sama was blushing. ".....He is my Advay." I heard Shalini's voice when I was little far away from kitchen. What did she just said? He is her Advay. This single sentence made my blood boil at 100°C. "What the hell did you just said?" I didn't even know when these words flew away from my mouth. Both of their heads snapped towards my direction. "What is going on here children?" dadi came and asked us. "Umm.... Nothing dadi, we were just chatting, that's it." Any how Sama lied to Dadi.
Samaira's POV :Just then we heard a click sound. I saw bhai was staring behind me, without blinking his eyes for once. And I knew it who was there.I turned around and saw that Shalu was standing at the doorway in her full glory.She was looking absolutely stunning in her yellow ethnic lehenga.Shalini's getup?They both were staring at each other intensily, even without blinking their eyes."Uhmmm... Uhmmm..." I cleared my throat to gain their attention."Shalu plz take some of these diya(earthen lamp) and arrange them on the terrace railing." I gave the work to Shalu, indicating her towards diya(earthen lamp) that were kept on the table.She nodded her head silently and move towards the table to take it.

I said to him while controlling my laughter, while he just pout and give Ira his best puppy eyes ,which he has got from her.Well, Risha is 4 years old daughter of Rishi and Shalini and Rishab is their 2 years old cute munchkin. Aahir and Risha are good friends , but what can we do when Risha has gone on Shalu , naughty and bold, while Aahir has gone on Ira, calm and reserved. "Baby, you are looking handsome,and I am sur
Samaira's POV : "Hmm....I see, you guys are enjoying a lot huh..." I teased Shalu and got a stuttering 'no, what rubbish' in reply."Leave all this. Now tell me how's everyone there? And how our champ is doing?" Shalu asked me in a cheering tone making me chuckle."Everyone is doing good here and now your Champ has gone in nearby fair with his grandparents." I said while pouring the tea in the cup."Okk Shalu, don't torture bhai while talking to me. I am hanging up the call now. Byy and enjoy!!" I said to her mischievously and cut the call before she start shouting on me . It has been 7 days since their reception and now they have went for their honeymoon to Paris for as long as they want.I Pour the tea in the cup and decided to go in the lawn as nobody is home right now.Its 5 p.m in the evening and mom-dad has took Aahir in the nea

And finally tomorrow is there marriage. "Sama plz just apply a lil bit and then wash it after some time. I am sure till then Advay will manage Aahir." I sighed knowing that there is no way , she is going to stop pestering me. "Ok ok fine!" I said finally and sat down beside her as her mehandi has already got done. I collected my pallu (part of the saree which cover the chest area and hang over shoulder) and put all of them on my sho

He asked surprisingly while rubbing his head. "Yes, I did hit you. Now tell me. Yes or No? " I asked him again, trying to intimate him. "Look Ira, You can't do violence. And from now and on, I am not leaving you alone with mom.I know she is filling all these violent things in your head." He said amd without my will, my tears started forming in my eyes. "Ohh ok-ok.
