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!
