My dream come true chapter 12

My dream come true:

Maha update

-an engagement ?...that fast ?

Garima looks at the Raizada’s family with wide eyes…

A lady wearing a white saree was smiling to her…she’s Arnav’s nani…

 Another younger wearing a light green saree and looking here and there arrogantly…she’s his mother…

 And a man wearing a kurta …he’s no one than his Father…

Arnav…little nervous…hating all those introductions…he said it directly…

He’s here to fix a date for the engagement and another for the wedding!

-I know…we maybe surprise you but my son know very well your daughter…I mean…he knows how good your daughter is!

Said Arnav’s father smiling

-can we meet her?

Arnav’s mother wasn’t so happy with all those fast events…

She doesn’t even know how her bahu is!

-yes…one second!...I’m goanna call her!

Shashi stands up…and disappears…

Arnav looks at his direction…

Where is she?

What the…

This visit is so complicated and he’s feeling so hot…he’s nervous…his hands are sweating!

Relax!

Everything is goanna be alright!

What if she refuses!

Or her mother…she doesn’t seem to be happy!

He looks at Garima direction…

She’s as nervous as him…inviting Nani to drink her tea…

-she’s coming!

Shashi appeared anew…

it's Shashi who was the one going to call her because he knows how much his daughter is shy and she will never come if he's not the one going and talk to her.

-Please, have your tea, Mr. Raizada, Mrs. Raizada!

Mr. Raizada smiles:

-Shashi ji, you could call me Rahul directly!

-alright then: Mr. Rahul!

The two men laugh a little…calming down the stress of the first meeting…

And it’s then that khushi appeared…

Arnav felt it…even before she comes in…

He could feel her presence…her soft scent…light roses perfume…

-khushi…

He whispered…when no one was aware…

Khushi made few steps forward…

She’s shivering…

Her purple and golden outfit made her looks even more beautiful!

Arnav's breathe is off for some seconds...

-Namaste!

She said joining her two hands…

Arnav takes a deep breath…and with a discrete smile of satisfaction…he looks at her from top to bottom…

-khushi beta!...come…come here and sits next to me!

Nani!

Khushi finally smiles…

 And walks towards her…took the blessing from everyone…

How beautiful Arnav’s mother is!

And how elegant his father is!

She thought…

She sits next to Nani…which means next to Arnav’s mother too…and in front of Arnav which is not so easy!

She felts his gaze on her but she doesn’t… never!... take the risk of looking towards him, even once…

-khushi beta…we are here to ask your hand for our son Arnav!

Nani said smiling ear to ear and looking at khushi…

Khushi blushed and looks down…

What the…

What she’s supposed to say…

-Aree…are you so shy?

Nani added looking at her and Arnav…

-there is nothing to be shy with, beta!...we are here today to that we could know each other!

Rahul said smiling…

-I’m Arnav’s father and here, his mother and his nani…as you know Arnav is our unique son…so, he has no brothers or sisters…

-I have!

Arnav said…

-I have now: Maan and Payal!

Arnav looks at his friend and future brother in law…and at his future sister in law with satisfaction!

His father nodded smiling

-of course! Of course…if our daughter khushi just say yes…then we will be one family, forever, haa?

Rahul looks at Khushi and then Shashi and Garima…

-we…we need to think…I mean…

Garima said troubled…she doesn’t like Arnav’s mother gazes and behaviors…

She doesn’t look at khushi once…

-you mean there is a huge difference between the two families! Am I Right?

Finally Mrs. Raizada…

-Right!

Garima answers honestly…

-even there are lots of differences!

Garima added, challenging the beautiful lady…

-Great! Everyone knows!

Mrs. Raizada felt disappointed about this honesty…

Khushi beats her lower lip…feeling the tension…

What if…

Oh God!

Arnav’s mum doesn’t like her already!

A silence dominated the living room…

Only sounds of breathes are heard

-I love Miss Gupta!

A firm tone and a challenging gaze…took the advantage!

Time to some ASR moments!

-and I want to marry her, Mr. Shashi!...I don’t give any attention to the rest!...I promise Miss. Gupta a happy life…I don’t care about anything else but her and her own satisfaction…and of course your agreement!

Both the families looked surprised…

He said it all!

Khushi felt all her body tensed…

He’s crazy to say that he loves her this way!

-because I know Miss Gupta opinion about me!

False!

She never said yes to him!

She looks at him, shocked…

-she thinks I’m a nice person!

Yes…well…this true…khushi thought…

-our union needs only your agreement Mr. SHashi and your blessing aunty!

Union?

She goanna faint here and there…

Without her attention, she pressed the nearby hand that she finds so close from her…thinking that it’s nani’s hand…

She looks down to see different fingers…

She gets surprised as it was Arnav’s mother hand…

Nervous, she looks up…

The lady has the same eyes as Arnav…

-I’m sorry…

She whispered…taking out her hand…

-for me, I have nothing to add…you know how much I respect and I find that you’re the perfect son in law!

Shashi said simply…

Arnav looks then at Garima waiting…

But Garima looks at his mother…

-I need to hear your mother opinion first!

Mrs. Raizada looks at her son…

-my son said it all…and his happiness is my priority!

-and my daughter’s happiness is everything for me!

Garima said…

Arnav:-then why not to exchange the engagement rings now!

Khushi is trembling…

He has no shame!

Even a little bit…

-but...

Garima wasn’t able to understand how much this Arnav is without any patience!

-I think it’s too fast!

She added…

-Mother?

Arnav looks at his mother…wanting her to help him, after all, if Garima hesitates…it’s her fault!…and he knows her better than him at convincing people…

-well…Mrs. Gupta…if their happiness is in this union…and we all agree, I don’t think there is any reason to postpone this!

-well…than…

-but we want to hear our daughter in law!

Rahul looks at Khushi…

Khushi smiles shyly…

-what do you think beta?...are you sure you want to marry my arrogant son?

-Father!

Arnav’s anger tone doesn’t stop his father amused humor…

Khushi smiles at Rahul…but she doesn’t find her voice to say anything…

This marriage is…

Her dream coming true!

She always wants to marry her prince charming…

But …this prince charming is the surprise …

Even in her dreams…her boss wasn’t in list of her prospective grooms…

And here…

-I have the rings here!

Arnav said taking out of the pocket of his jacket a black box…

-today is a good and blessed day, Garimaji

Nani said smiling…

-and tomorrow will consult the priest to have the astrological charts and fix the marriage date!

Arnav’s mother added…to satisfy her son, of course!

-what kind of Marriages, khushi beta, wants, a big or a simple one?

Asked nani…holing her hand…

- The most beautiful one of all the times!

Of course…it’s Arnav who answers…

Khushi lost the ability to speak…but she managed to speak finally…

-excuse me…I…

She stands up…

Arnav stands up as well…

-I will be right back!

She added…

She wanted to breathe…

All those dreams coming true are troubling her…

She runs to the kitchen and rested her back to the wall…

Closed her eyes…she took a deep breath…

-oh my God…my god…help me!

She touched her burned cheeks…and wetted them with some water…

“I love Miss Gupta”

Oh my god!

Just thinking about this declaration if front of her whole family…

“her and her own satisfaction”

He lost it!

-some trouble?

A husky voice, so near from her…makes her turn…

-you’re…you have no shame!

-you didn’t see anything yet!

He walks towards her…

She walks back…so troubled and nervous and scared…

-I said lot of things…you never speak!

He seems little upset…

After all…he’s the Great Arnav Singh Raizada and today to win her heart and her hand…he opens his heart to everyone…and it’s even not his nature to speak out everything he feels but for her…he did it!

And what makes him little upset is the fact that at the end…she never speaks what she feels…

-what if you don’t want this marriage?

The question was a revelation…

Yes…what if she doesn’t want him…and he’s forcing this…

She never said anything to him but few words…

His trouble and hesitation made her almost cry a:

-NO!...I…I want!

Again the naughtiness, in his eyes and expression, come back…

One more step towards her and she finds herself pinned to the wall

-you want?

He whispered so close to her ear…

-khushi…look at me!

Unable to look at his eyes…She just paused her both hands against his chest to stop him coming closer…

Feeling his heart beats under her hand…she becomes calmer…

She looks up at him…

-don’t I have the right to hear, at least, a proper agreement, from your side?!

Damn it!

How he could lose all her control before her and now he’s begging for a “yes”!

Her eyes get wet…

A tear comes down and another follows…

-khushi?...what happened?...you don’t want to marry me?

His calm turned to be anger and he holds her waist roughly, crushing her petite form against his hard one…

-speak! Answer me!

-no…(sobs)…I said I want…I want! (sobs)

-so, why the hell are you crying?

-I agree to marry you!

-that’s perfect! And is this made you cry?

She nodded negatively…

-so?

-it’s like that…it’s because I’m a girl! (sobs)

-getting so much emotional?

She nodded positively…

-it’s because you still a little baby…mine!

He said amused…and leaned further towards her…wanting to kiss away her tears…

-Hey…KHUSHI BETA!

The voice of her mother from the other room made her push him hard and she runs away from him…and his protective hold…

She wiped her tears and turned once to look at him

Troubled but smiling shyly…

She walked away…

He smirked…

And Looked at the floor where there is her payal…

Arnav leaned to pick up the anklet that’s falls from khushi’s ankle unconsciously…

Arnav kisses it and saves it in his pocket…

-just be my wife, khushi and you will never run away from me this way!
