— THE MEETING —
•°~°•
A R U S H I
Sitting on my bed , I cried whole night . My head and cheeks were paining . I didn't sleep whole night . And the morning also don't know why appeared in no time . The nature too hate me ,I guess . I want to disappear . I don't want to meet with anyone . I hate everyone . If my own family hate me because of that night then how can an unknown man could accept ? I am sure ,he will reject me .
Suddenly my door unlocked . I turned to it hoping bhai or bhabhi but unfortunately I found Raghu bhai and Anjali didi . I lifted my body up from bed ,lazily . She did her catwalk to me . She stood infront of me, folding her arms ,“Listen bitch , I am warning you if you do any kind of stupid act infront of the boy's family . I don't care about yours but if my one reject me because of you . I swear I will kill you !” she spat , I didn't reply her .
She cupped my cheeks hard between her palm ,“Did you understand ,you whore ?” she snapped . I bobbed my head with teary gaze ,“ I u-un-understood !” “good !” she smiled wickedly . She was leaving when ,“I-I am not a whore !” I spoke . She moved her head ,“repeat it again !” “I am not a whore !” I said . She laughed , loudly ,“Nice joke !” she jogged out of my room .
Raghu bhai smirked at me . I ignored him and went to bathroom but suddenly he pulled me . He pinned me to the nearest wall , he held my wrist tightly,“Raghu bhai , what are you doing ? Leave my hand !” I told him hurriedly . “Shut up !” he told in a deep voice . He moved his face near to me ,“Don't say yes for marriage !”
“Raghu !” a voice boomed . He immediately left my hand ,I rubbed my wrist . I saw bhabhi looking Raghu bhai with doubting glare ,“What were you doing ?” he gave me a warning look ,“nothing bhabhi ! I was just asking her ,if she need any help with her assignments ?!” he answered .
“ok now leave ! She need to get ready !” bhabhi exclaimed smiling at me . He rushed out . “Aru , we are already late ! Come on ,go and take a bath until I choose your outfit !” bhabhi exclaimed , speeding up outside .
. . .
“So Aru , what do you want to wear ? Saree or kurti ?” she asked . “No saree bhabhi ! Please ,they are not made for me !” I replied with irritating voice . Bhabhi shook her head at me ,“you will never change ,okay so now take this and change" she pushed me into the closet .
. . .
“Aru done ?” bhabhi voiced me . “Just one minute bhabhi !” I shouted from inside . I walked out of my closet . Bhabhi looked me with wide eyes ,“Wow Aru , I didn't know my dress would suit you so perfect ?” she told excitingly .
She gave me a light touch of makeup and with that , I got ready . “They will be here anytime soon !” bhai entered in my room and informed . “O my goodness , my sister is looking damn beautiful !” he smiled widely.
Bhai and bhabhi went for preparation and all .
I took small steps to my window . I rested my head against the wall and admired our front yard . I noticed a car came to halt infront of our house. A lady and a old man came out first . Then another man came out of the car. My dad and bhai shook their hand with them . Is he here for me ? Or Anjali di ? Then my attention was caught by another shining black SUV , which stopped infront of our gate .
From it , a old man of his late fifties , a lady of her early forties and a girl of near my age got out . Then another same type SUV appeared in view , the driver side door opened , a pair of shining shoes landed on the ground . A man came out of it but this man was a little huge than the previous one . He was turning the other side , I got desperate to see his face but before I could see , bhabhi's voice came ,“Arushi !”
She pulled me towards her and hugged ,“All the best ! They are here ! Don't get nervous ,okay ? Everything will be fine ! I will come to take you !” she notified me and dashed out .
Who would be here for me ? The first one or the huge hulk man ? Whoever it may be ,they gonna reject me ,for sure !
“Aru , come they are calling you !” Bhabhi told fixing my dress . My stomach twisted , I felt really nervous . “Bhabhi ,who is he ?” I asked her . She winked ,“he is the most handsome man in this whole world . You are really lucky girl ,who will meet him face to face .”
We descended the staircase . I can hear the conversation between the families . “Oh, she is here !” I heard dad's voice . I looked up at him while smiling thinking he is talking about me . He gestured me to come . I was about walk to him when Anjali didi passed by me . She went near dad .
My smile dropped . Oh ...he was calling her . Bhabhi took me near them . The first family was sitting at the left couch and the other one was different side . With the second family ,there was a girl whom I saw outside , she grinned and waved at me . I threw her a small smile and waved shyly .
“Okay so now when both of them are here , let me introduce them . She is my older daughter , Anjali . And the other is Arushi !” dad introduced but my heart ached by the way he introduced me . “Arushi ,sit here !” bhabhi said. I sat beside bhai .
“Arushi meet Randhir Malhotra .” bhai told . I took deep breath . I looked at bhai who blinked . I looked straight when my gaze fell on that man . The same huge hulk man . But then I realised ,I have seen him somewhere . I tried to think . Wait...No! He was the same man I met at mall .
My eyes widened . He smirked noticing my shocked expression . “Great ! Now don't say me he is here for me !” I muttered under my breath while resting my head in my palm .
