It Started With a Bet

Chapter 7

She heard a voice and looked in our direction and was happy to see the man standing there.

"  Hi Kshitij !! ..... How are you? What are you doing here? "  She was pleasantly surprised to see him.

" Why ?? Can't I come and meet you?"

" Of course, you can. " Just then another man came in with a bag full of things. He kept the bag on a table greeted her and left.

" What is all this?? "

" Well I went to meet your parents and my would-be mother-in-law sent all this for you. "

What did he mean by that??

" What???  You went to meet mom and dad? What happened? What did my dad say? "

What was that?? I was about to leave but now I could not for the safety of this man.

I looked at Bhai, he was shocked as hell. I wanted to check his heartbeat. But I could not risk my life...

" Well later on dear, but right now I am really hungry. So can I have the amazing food prepared by your magical hands? "  He said.

My brother looked  really annoyed. I hope this man had medical insurance as he would be needing it soon.

" Of course, my mom would kill me if I didn't offer food to you. I don't want to die so young. " She said and served food to him and he started eating.

" Wow !!  The food is amazing, Maurvi. You are awesome. I am so happy that I will get to eat such tasty meals after marriage. "

He is definitely going to die now. Bhai did not kill me as he loves me a lot but this man... 

I could see that Bhai was fuming now.

" Forget it... Don't say flattering words. I am not going to cook for you every day."

" I meant what I said, Beautiful. "

" You can't flirt with me.... "

" Well, I have every right to flirt with you. Ask your mom..."

Oh God, save him !! He seems to have a death wish...

" Did my dad gave his consent? "

" Well they approved but your dad said that you are not ready to get married yet. Please yaar Maurvi, have mercy on me and please get married."

" What?? "  Bhai and I said together.

Even I was shocked by what was going on. My brother... Well, he was raging like a fighting bull. I held his forearm to stop him in case he was planning to attack this man.

" No, but I can't get married right now... "

" Why what is the problem? I have been waiting for you to get married for at least 6 months. Now even your parents agreed. "

Bhai took a furious step towards him to kill him. I held his arm tightly and pushed him in another direction. He was glaring at that man with clenched jaw and fists.

" First of all, I need at least 6 months to complete my studies and my internship. The most important thing is I would need to find a guy to get married to me Mr. brother-in-law. "  She said.

" Brother-in-law?? How can he be your brother-in-law?? " Bhai started walking towards them again but I held him back again.

Hey!! Great !! I was getting stronger...

" Hey, Maurvi you did not introduce us. But my dear friend why can't I be her brother-in-law? Why are you getting offended ??" That man asked him.

" Of course, I would get offended. Sid would be her brother-in-law. "

" What nonsense ?? Who is Sid? Why would he be? " That man got angry now.

Both of them were looking at each other as if they are going to pounce on each other. I was standing in between. She also came and stood between them.

" Will both of you be quiet, please? " She said and Bhai looked at her with a hurt and angry look pushed me and went out banging the door loudly.  He looked furious.

" Oh, God !!! He misunderstood. Kshitij please just wait. I need to talk to him. Siddharth please be here with Kshitij. I will be back with him in 5 mins. "

" All the best, "  I said. She rushed after bhai. 

" What was that?? Who was he?? What is going on?? "  The man asked me as only I was left there in the house with him. 

" He is my brother. "

" Who are you?? "

" I am Siddharth Jindal. Who are you?"

" I am Kshitij. I am going to be her brother-in-law very soon. "

" What?? How?? "

"  What do you mean how?? So are you the one he was talking about?? Why would you be her brother-in-law according to your brother? "

" Because they ... She will explain that to you.  How are you going to be her brother-in-law?? "

" In the usual way... By marrying her sister.   "

" You are getting married to... Noopur?"  I said and smiled as I understood everything.

I was smiling now.

" Of course, How else would I become her brother-in-law ?? What is the confusion?? "

" You can also become her brother-in-law if your brother marries her. "

" What?? Oh yes... Of course !!  Oh !!! Ok !!  So, according to your brother,  only you could be her brother-in-law. That means... He wants to get married to her ?? They... They?? "

" Yes !!! "

" Oh my God !!! Thank god!!!
