Good morning guys, enjoy reading and wait till end for Ruhaan and sitara's not so good interaction
Next day sunrays falls on sitara's face, she woke up. She loves waking up early. Looking around herself she sighed. After doing her morning prayers in bed she left for shower. It's her day off today as it's akshita's babyshower. She came from her wardrobe area wearing green saree. She loves sarees. usually she wears in functions. Reaching to hall area she found advik and akshita talking sweetly. A genuine smile made its way on her lips. She admires them alot.
"Good morning lovebirds " Sitara wished as soon as she reached to them
"Good morning sitara" akshita wished matching sitara's tone
"Good morning " advik wished and smiled
"So what's going on" siatar asked taking seat
"Actually I was telling advik to wear something blue as I'm wearing blue lehenga" akshita said
"Wowww twining and all ha" sitara said cheerily
"Yes, areh advik told me ruhaan will reach at 4, do one thing prepare anything white. You're also wearing white saree na" akshita said cheerily
Advik and sitara shared a look
"Akshi, it's your babyshower not hers" advik said saving sitara
"Oh yes, but don't worry we will do something unique on your babyshower " akshita said dreamily
"Um...bhabhi, do you want anything, actually I'm going to get my blouse from tailor " sitara asked ignoring akshita's statement
"No i don't want anything...ooo yes... Please bring karela juice " She said making puppy face
"What" advik and sitara yelled in union
"You never liked karela" advik said being confused
"Yes but I want to drink today" akshita said making face
"Okay but bhabhi you shouldn't drink juice from outside I'll make it for you" sitara suggested and stood up
"No sitara you will be late tell some servant" Akshita said holding her hand
"Don't worry bhabhi it will take only 10 minutes " sitara said and left after giving smile
Time skipped to 3:30 PM
Sitara wore white saree. Her hairs are curled today. Simple yet elegant necklace making her neck attractive with her mangalsutra. She wore only bangles which is gifted by her mother in law. She came down and checked decorations. Being a perfect businesswomen who is helping her in laws and her husband in business she is an ideal daughter in law too who takes care of family and house. she is everyone's favorite. She made sure everything perfect. It's akshita's big day and sitara don't want anything to be left. She was checking decorations and suddenly a pair of hands covered her eyes from Back. She touched them and excitedly said
"Mayraaa" sitara shout in happiness
"Bhabhiiii how do you know" Mayra, her sister in law asked making puppy face when sitara turned
"It's so easy baby, our perfume choice are same" sitara said and winked
"Bhabhiiì" Mayra whined
"Okay okay let it be now give me a hug" sitara pulled mayra in her arms
"I missed you so much" Mayra said when she broke her hug
"Me too baby, but why you came late" sitara faked glare
" Oo bhabhi my flight got delayed " mayra said
"Okay okay now go and first meet maa and dad, advik bhai and akshita bhabhi too" sitara suggested
"Yes but why not ruhaan bhai" Mayra asked narrowing her eyes
"Um..he isn't here" sitara replied awkwardly
"Why, oh he must be in office" Mayra said shaking her head
"No..actually he isn't in India he went for a business tour " sitara stated
"What it means he will not attend today's function not fair bhabhi we didn't even celebrated your six month anniversary as he was outside" Mayra whined
"No no he will come today but now you please go and get ready guest will started arriving soon" sitara pushed her in her room
Mayra left
"Ruhaan please come soon. I can't even manage properly our family member's questions how will I answer guests's questions " sitara said herself
After some time guest started arriving. All the family members greeted them expect akshita and ruhaan. Akshita is in her room taking some rest . And ruhaan,well it's already 4 and he isn't arrived.
"Sitara beta where is ruhaan" sitara's father, madhav asked
"Umm papa he...he isn't here" sitara said hesitantly
"Why" madhav asked
"Actually he went for business trip but don't worry he will come soon" sitara said wearing fake smile
"Okay beta" he said and move toward kabir
"Should I call his manager " sitara asked herself. After thinking sometimes she dials his manager, Mr arora's number. But her bad, his call is unreachable. She signed.
"Beta where is ruhaan, everyone here asking about him" Nishtha came and asked her slowly
"M..maa um... he he is on his way" sitara lied
"Okay tell him to come fast" Nishtha ordered and left
"I should tell advik bhai " She thought and looked around herself but couldn't find advik
"Maa where is advik bhai" She asked her mother in law
"He is with akshita" Nishtha said and some lady came. Sitara smiled at them and excused herself
"What should I do now. Ruhaan please come please" She prayed
"See akshita bhabhi is here" Mayra yelled happily
Everyone tilted thier gaze toward akshita. She is wearing blue lehenga, twinning with advik. She is looking beautiful and her face is glowing.her cute baby bump making her look more cute.
[Advik Akshita 👆]
"Bhabhi,you looks so beautiful "sitara said cheerily
"Thank you, but where is ruhaan" Akshita asked
"Umm wo.." sitara was trying hard to lie
"He is on his way, ab chalo warna muhrat nikal jayega" advik said
"Yes beta come" Nishtha said and took akshita on stage.
They waited for ruhaan 1 and half hour. After getting no hints of his coming they started the ceremony. Advik and kabir tried to call him several times but his phone was switched off. Everyone became upset with this but they had to this ceremony. Sitara took part in ceremony with half heartedly and genuine smile on her lips. She felt like crying but she had to be strong. Kabir and advik were angry at ruhaan but it didn't came on thier faces.
Ruhaan's pov
What the fuck. I had to reach before four and here my flight got delayed. I didn't even told about this to advikbhai. He will be angry at me. I didn't even informed anyone. Right now I'm in my flight and I can't even call them. From next time I will use my personal jet. It was bad decision to take flight.
I want to attend akshita bhabhi's babyshower. She is so precious to me. She always treats me like her own brother. When I was in love she was the one who supported me. She stood by my side in my bad and good. She is actually bhabhimaa to me. And today is her big day and here ik stucked.
I know sitara will handle everything. Aftetall she is alrounder. She is really doing everything for my family without asking anything in return. She is even helping me in our business. I remember our wedding day. I told her that I won't be able to accept her as my wife and I wasn't lying. I still can't accept her. She is kind, good and caring but I think I can't love her. Can you love two person at the same time. I can't. We are maintaining our distance from our wedding day. She is minding her own business and vice-versa. And now we are habitual with this.we just wished eachother morning and night. She always smiles at me when I wake up.she tried many times to talk to me but I refused. I know she is trying to give this relationship a chance. But at the end she will hurt herself because I can't love her. And I don't want to give her any false hope.
My thoughts interrupted when pilot announced that we reached Mumbai. I just want to run from here. My PA will take care of my luggage. I did.
I somehow managed to reach. And finally I'm here. I saw cars moving out of the mansion. But why,the ceremony is still going on right. I wasted no time and ran towards the entrance. I found the whole hall decorated. All the family members were present but where are the guests.
"Bhai" Mayra shouted when she saw me
I moved in. Bhai and bhabhi are in room I guess. Only my mom,dad,mayra and sitara's father are present.
"Hello dad" I greeted sitara's father and touched his feets
"Hello beta" he put his hand on my head. I eyed my dad and he has some different kind of expressions on his face and I think I know.
"I should leave now" sitara's dad said looking at my dad and smiled. I felt his smile fake.My dad too smiled and nod
He left and I know what's coming
"Where the hell were you Mr Ruhaan oberio" dad shouted on me
"Dad my flight got delayed and that's why i" I was saying calmly but maa interrupted
"Do you even know ruhaan what sitara and akshita must be feeling, everyone questioned sitara about you and she didn't had any answer . Akshita was waiting for you. We waited 1 and half hour " maa too shouted but slowly
"It isn't my fault maa, I too wanted to attend the ceremony " I resonate
"Then you must be present here yesterday only" dad again shouted
"Stop shouting dad, I'm not kid anymore. I'm freaking 30 years old i knowwhateverhappenedwas wrong but I'm not in fault" I too shouted this time
"Bhai please calm down, dad you too" Mayra said worrying
"Mayra go to your room" advik bhai came from nowhere, Mayra instantly left
"Dad calm down we can talk about this tomorrow" advik bhai said and somehow maa managed to take dad to thier room
"Bhai I'm sorry" I was saying and he cut me off, what the hell everyone is cutting me off today
"Ruhaan, I know everything about you and sitara. And that's why you are running from every family function. Don't worry I found a way but as of now go and take some rest" he said
"What are you saying bhai" I asked him. How he got to know
"Don't act ruhaan,sitara told me everything now go and take rest. My wife needs me and I have to perform my duty" Why he sounds taunting
He left and I feel anger taking place in my mind. It was our deal that we will not tell anyone about it. How can she spilled it to advikbhai. I started stepping towards my room.I opened the door and found her sitting infront of mirror taking her jewelry off.
Sitara's pov
He didn't came. He seriously didn't came. I know he is maintaining distance from me and that's why he goes to abroad every month in the name of business meetings. But today, today he didn't cared about akshita bhabhi too. How can he be so immature. Akshita bhabhi consider him as her younger brother. She was so upset on her big day.
Right now I'm taking of my jewelry.
"Sitara where is your husband "
"Sitara go and click some couple photos, where is ruhaan"
"You must be feeling bad"
"Ruhaan and his love for business. His business is his priority not you?"
"Sitara why didn't you celebrated your six month anniversary "
"Sitara we never saw any public appearances your and ruhaan's together "
This are the lines are ringing in my mind from so called aunties. Some were taunting and some were genuinely asking me. I don't know but for the first time I'm feeling some unbearable pain in my heart. It feels like someone stabbed knife on my chest. I am strong very very strong but today, I feel crying like anything. I don't know when a tear slipped from my eye. I immediately wiped it and heard door opening sound. I tilted my gaze and saw ruhaan standing there with cold eyes. Hunh nothing new. He looks red. My heart skipped a beat. His messy hairs and black shirt are dead combo. I never noticed that I have such a hot husband. His two opened buttons are giving me way to admire his spectacular chest.
He started taking long steps towards me and with no time he hold my wrist and made me stand
"Wha..what happened " I asked Suttering
"What did you said everything to bhai" he asked dangerously I can see red color of his eyes
"I di..didn't said anything he asked me ab...about it " I was out of words now and trying to get out of his hold. It's painting.
Aftet hearing me he pinned me on wall and leaned down holding my arms tightly.i gulped. I can hear his breathing. Our nose and lips were barely maintaining distance.
"I told you before our wedding that i won't accept you as my wife and you were okay with this then why the hell you told advikbhai everything " he yelled and I flinched
My father never raised his voice on me. Neither anyone. And this is the first time ruhaan is doing this. I know we made agreement that we won't tell anyone but advik bhai asked me to swear on him.
So I had to tell him
"Ruhaan it's hurting" I said and tear slipped from my left eye. Its hurting alot in my arms afterall he is holding my arm tightly
I don't know what happened to him. When i said those line he immediately loosen his hold. His eyes too got soften. He murmured sorry and left the room making thud. I sat on sofa crying. I want to punch myself and him too. And not give him any medical treatment after punching him.
