Sirat: u all r applying it on each other as if its holi
Neil :correct that's what we r actually thinking
All laughed ...neil got up and applied it on the elders and akshara and ranveer joined him followed by the rest...akshara was about to apply haldi on Abhimanyu but she backed away recalling their bedroom confrontation while the smile fell from his face seeing her stop and take a step back
As she was about to turn away vidyut and neil came stopping her and held her... unaware about the tension between abhira
Vidyuty:come on Abhimanyu apply haldi on Akshara
Akshara :guys what r u Doing leave me
Neil: not so easily. Chalo bro what's taking u so long
Abhimanyu looked at akshara .. while she was looking at vidyut and neil ...he slowly walked to her and stood in front of her...
Akshara was able to feel Abhimanyu in front of her yet she didnt look ahead and concentrated on trying to be freed from her two crazy friends when suddenly she felt Abhimanyu 's hand move towars her face and rub haldi on both her cheeks
As Abhimanyu rubbed the haldi on her cheeks he saw her turn to face him while vidyut and neil left since Abhimanyu applied haldi.. both looked at each other with different emotions
Abhimanyu :I'm sorry he said
Akshara tried to control her tears and moved away his hands from her cheeks and started to walk where ranveer was dancing with Arohi and juhi while some were still applying haldi
Abhimanyu saw her walk away and sighed.
Abhimanyu :I'll make sure u talk to me akshu ... I'm not going to Give up
Soon some snacks were served so all were eating outside in the lawn
Manjari:what a crazy but fun haldi ceremony it was na she said taking a bite of her pakora
Harshvardhan: ofcourse crazy people would find it more fun he said teasingly as he took a bite of his jalebi making others chuckle
Manjari was about to argue with harshvardhan when neil interrupted
Neil: of course it would be ma after all when we crazy people r here then there will be only enjoyment
All laughed
Akshara :I'm going to wash my hand does anyone want anything
Manjari :no beta everything is here dont worry
Akshara nodded and left.
Akshara :madhavi di y r u not coming out yet she said entering the kitchen talking to one of the maid who was just like a family member
Madhavi:just few mins akshara frying the last portion of pakoras
Akshara nodded and moved to wash her hands in the sink
Abhimanyu came in after a min and smiled at madhavi and then walked to akshara
Abhimanyu :akshara ?
Akshara straightened up while washing her hand as she heard his voice but she didnt look at him
Abhimanyu :we need to talk... please he said in a way that only akshara can hear
Akshara turned off the tap and dried her hands with the napkin
Abhimanyu :chatterbox r u listening to what I'm saying he said as his eyes furrowed when akshara walked over to madhavi
Akshara : madhavi di let me help u she said taking the juice tray while madhavi held the pakora plate
Abhimanyu frowned seen akshara ignoring him completely ....as madhavi and akshara walked out he banged his hand against the platform and pushed his hair back in frustration
Akshara and madhavi placed the stuff on the table and sat down with the rest while few mins later Abhimanyu joined
After chatting for an hour and eating they all freshened up and then decided to go to their respective house
Manjari:so chalo will see u all tomorrow
Akshara :maa, tai ji I wanted to ask u both something
Mahima:haan beta ask us
Akshara :woh since the wedding is taking place over here is it ok if I stay back at the goenka mansion tonight to help out with all the arrangements
Manjari :ofcourse beta ...u dont need our permission
Akshara :thank u
Juhi:but akshara your outfit
Mahima:dont worry I'll tell the driver to send your stuff ok..
Akshara :ok it's all in one bag which is kept near the dressing table
Shweta:ok beta
Abhimanyu :great I thought I will be able to talk to akshara once we go home but she decided to stay back.. now how will I talk to her he thought to himself
Harshvardhan :abhimanyu let's go
Abhimanyu :yes dad
Abhimanyu looked at akshara who was busy talking to the rest.. as he turned to leave sirat called out to him
Sirat:arien abhimanyu If akshara is staying back over here y dont u too
Akshara looked at sirat when she said that
Abhimanyu :gf actually...
Akshara :sirat ma let him go he must have work she said looking at sirat not letting Abhimanyu complete his sentence
Abhimanyu looked at akshara seriously
Sirat :Arien bacha even if he has work he still can come back here later on too right
Ranveer: sirat is right champ ..Abhimanyu u should stay back
Abhimanyu :ok ok if u all insist I'll defo stay back
Swarna: vasundra (juhi mom). We would be happy if juhi and u all stay back too as the bidaai will be happening from here
Sirat:maa is right u 3 should stay back too haina dadi
Suhasini: of course
Vasundra:ok me and vijay will go and get juhi bridal clothes and our clothes too
Suhasini: that's fine
Akshara was annoyed.. she thought she can avoid Abhimanyu for sometime but no he wont leave her at her place too. But even she is determined to not speak to him
Arohi : hey y dont u guys stay back too for a bit she said to vidyut and neil
Neil: not a bad idea
Ragini;chalo vidyuty see u soon ok
As the elder left...the gang went and sat on the terrace
Neil:so finally u two will be married the next morning
Juhi: is it ok to feel nervous ?
Vidyut:y.r u feeling nervous..I mean u r only marrying me not anyone else
Arohi :all girls feel like this
Neil:and how do u know that?
Arohi :because I'm a girl
Neil :really I didnt know that I thought I fell in a love with a guy
Abhira laughed at that slightly
Juhi:damn the bachelorette party was so funny I didnt expect we would be crazy like that and get drunk
Arohi :true...especially us dancing like God knows what
Juhi:and us been tipsy especially akshara
Vidyut:yeah it was a sight seeing u girls like that but akshara and Abhimanyu did u both get caught when u got home in that state
Abhimanyu :no not at all we were safe he said smiling
Akshara :do u know one good thing and bad thing about getting drunk
Abhimanyu who was sitting opposite Akshara looked at her..while she looked at others ignoring to look at Abhimanyu
Juhi:what akshara ?
Akshara : one good thing is that your real emotions comes out when u r drunk but then when u r back in sense u complain about the so called mistakes u make which is a bad thing she said
Abhimanyu closed his eyes annoyingly knowing what akshara was trying to aim at
Arohi :true babes
Akshara :I know anyways it was surprising to see u boys at the club
Neil:yup we didn't even know u girls were going to be there otherwise we could have planned something together
Arohi :aww but even if we knew ...we would have done our own bit and not spend it with u guys
Juhi:exactly
Vidyut:well what did u do on that night then
Juhi:that was not our fault we had no choice
Akshara :ok ok now the important thing...Neil u r in charge of the food ok so make sure it comes on time as the marriage is in the morning...I'll help chachu to take care of other arrangements
Arohi :I'll make sure that the beauticians comes on time
Abhimanyu :I'll see if all the items that the Pandit ji needs has come
Juhi:damn u guys r the best friends ever
Akshara :that we know.
Vidyut:ok I guess we will leave then
Neil:same here
Abhira , juhi and Arohi went down to drop both to the main door...vidyut whispered something in juhi ear making her laugh which all found cute
once neil and vidyut left the rest came back in
Arohi : let me make a call to this beautician she said
Juhi:wait I'll also come... need to ask few things too arohi nodded and both left from there
Abhira were now alone
Abhimanyu :akshara listen ...but before he could continue she left from there calling out to sirat
Suhasini:Abhimanyu beta what's wrong y r u standing here alone
Abhimanyu :woh nothing mimi..umm I'll just go to the hospital for a bit..will be back later on
Suhasini: ok beta
Akshara was watching this from upstairs and saw Abhimanyu leave.. she closed her eyes trying to reduce the lump in her throat
Time went quickly all were making sure that the arrangements r done well as the mansion had to be decorated properly after all there was a wedding next day
Arohi and akshara made juhi try her bridal dress which her parents bought back so that if there was any changes to be made it could be done asap
Around 7pm while the decorators were doing their work outside all decided to have dinner and that's when Abhimanyu walked in
Sirat:Abhimanyu beta right on time go and freshen up in akshara room and then come down for dinner
Abhimanyu nodded and went up and then came down after few mins and sat next to akshara
As the food was been served akshara was able to feel Abhimanyu look at her now and then casually while he was making sure to talk to the others at the same time
No matter how much she would avoid it ...his words would keep echoing around her head
After dinner Abhimanyu, kairav, vansh and ranveer were checking how the decorators were doing and were also helping them
Akshara was in arohi room along with juhi and soon fell asleep or let's say pretended to sleep so that she doesn't have to see Abhimanyu when she goes to her room
Sirat came In to see akshara sleeping while arohi and juhi were getting ready to sleep
Sirat:r u sure u 3 will be ok on one bed.. u can wake akshara up so she can sleep in her room or I'll get the other room ready
Juhi:its fine aunty we will be very comfortable she said
Sirat:ok then goodnight she said to both the girls and closed the door as arohi closed the lights akshara slowly opened her eyes and then closed it seeing arohi and juhi sleeping next to her.
Kairav and vansh decided to carry on while Ranveer and Abhimanyu were tired they turned to head inside when they saw sirat walk toward them
Sirat:, Abhimanyu akshara fell asleep in arohi room so just came to inform u that dont wait for her..and if u need anything let me know ok
Ranveer:chal go and sleep
Abhimanyu :night chachu ...goodnight gf he said giving a side hug to sirat
Sirat:goodnight bachien
He soon entered akshara room to see an empty bed.. as he closed the door he sat on the bed resting his back against the headboard and closed his eyes.. but the confrontation between him akshara played in his head
Abhimanyu opened his eyes and picked up a photoframe kept beside which was of the him and akshara with the gang
Abhimanyu :we became friends after a long time but suddenly things changed again..atleast give me a chance chatterbox and talk to me...your silence hurts me
He closed his eyes holding the frame and fell asleep
Next morning abhimanyu woke up hearing a bangle sound. As he opened his eyes slowly he saw akshara looking for something in one of the drawers
Where as akshara came to get her earing set and bagless for Arohi and found Abhimanyu asleep..she smiled seen now cutely he was sleeping but then realised she was angry at him and started to do the work she came for
Abhimanyu :akshara ?
as akshara found the Accessories she was about to close the drawer when she heard Abhimanyu call her
Abhimanyu :akshara I want to say that.. but before he could finish she left without saying anything
Abhimanyu :for God sake y r u acting so stubborn akshara
He soon went to get ready
In arohi room juhi had a shower and came out wearing her bridal dress leaving the duppata as the beautician will be doing that for her as they would come any moment
Finally juhi and vidyut were going to get married in a short spam of time
All were busy doing the last min things be it decorations or making sure all items have arrived ...
Abhira got busy with different preparation that they hardly got to see each other...Abhimanyu wanted a chance to speak to akshara but his friends wedding was also important for him
The mandap was set up in the garden area as it would be the best place to do the wedding
The beauticians had arrived and were getting juhi ready while akshara and arohi decided to help out with other arrangements...they decided to get ready and them head downstairs
After a while. Akshara was brining a plate of grandland to take to the mandap area and was also telling some of the decorators to put the flowers and other decoration properly
Abhimanyu had.joined neil to check the catering department ..after doing that they were about to go to the garden area as vidyut arrived few mins ago and was there
Abhimanyu was about to walk away with neil when he saw akshara in a saree all decked up carrying a thali and saying something to the workers.. he smiled and looked at his Sherwani as they had matching colour outfits
Sirat :Bacha after go and check on juhi ok
Akshara :haan sirat ma I'll give this thali to pandit ji and come.. sirat nodded and walked away while akshara was walking to the garden
Neil:bhai lets go now y r u standing here he said seeing Abhimanyu stopping and looking ahead... but instead of answering him Abhimanyu called out to akshara
Abhimanyu :akshara he said a little loudly
Akshara stopped and turned around first she frowned and then smiled while placing the thali on the side and walked towards Abhimanyu
She was walking in a fast pace with a smile while Abhimanyu was surprised and happy seen her walking towards him and also neil was surprised seen that
Akshara lifted her hands in the air slowly while Abhimanyu stretched his hands out smiling thinking she is finally no longer ignoring him
As akshara reached closer to Abhimanyu .. his excitement was getting high with arms still stretched out.. but soon he frowned or more likely shocked seen akshara go past him
Abhimanyu :what the . He thought and turned around along with neil and saw her hugging someone
Akshara :I'm so happy to see u.. she said hugging the person while Abhimanyu narrowed his eyebrows not liking the scene
