When I was about to sleep I got notification from all my social networking sites accounts at once, I opened them and saw that I got a request from the same person in all my SNS and that person is none other than Aadiv Malhotra. I accepted all his requests and even followed him back on Instagram and Twitter.
I was surfing through the mail I got regarding the camp when my mobile again beeped with a message from Facebook and it was from Aadiv
"Hi" was his message
I opened my laptop so that I could chat with him and check my emails at a time
"Are you there??" Was his second message by the time I open my laptop
"Yeah just opening my laptop so got late" I replied to him and I saw that he saw the message almost immediately as if he was waiting for it.
"Ok no problem" was his reply and now I should initiate the conversation but how can I don't know what to talk
"So reached??" I asked him to initiate the conversation as it was only the question that came in my mind
"Yeah, just 10 minutes ago and what are you doing???" Came to his message
"Just surfing through mail seeing details about camp" was my short reply to him.
"Where was your camp??" he asked
"Andhra Pradesh" I replied
"Superb at what time you will leave" Came to his question again
"Monday morning 8" I replied to him
"Cool then start your packing as tomorrow you won't have a chance to do" came his advice and I must say his advice was right because tomorrow I will be busy in all the work of roka and will not be able to pack my luggage.
"Yeah you are right I won't get time to complete my packing tomorrow I will do it now only even if takes so much time" I replied to him as I decided to do it today only by a head or by crook.
"Yeah you are right, and I too think you should do it now and don't be up till late because you will be tired tomorrow" came his reply and I smiled at his concern
"Yeah sure now I will go to pack my things bye" I replied to him, but I dint want to stop talking to him I am feeling like talking to him the whole time.
"Yeah and before that I want to ask you one thing" came his reply and after reading it I was thinking of what he wants to ask me and all
"Yeah sure" I messaged him when I am only not sure of his question
"Can I have your mobile number??" he asked making me smile
"Yeah, sure my number is ...." I gave him my number finally and in the next minute my mobile got a message and I opened it
"It's me this is my number save it" I saw his message and saved his number in my contact list with the name "Aadiv"
I logged out from my Facebook account after saying bye to him and I don't even wait for his reply because of the packing I need to do. So, I went to do the packing and after nearly three long hours my packing is done. I fell on the bed and slept in just some seconds.
Next day I woke up at morning 8:30 as I slept late at night and I remembered that today is my roka and it will start from 11:00 and I woke up this late now I am gone why didn't anyone try to wake me. I took a long shower and wore the roka dress which I loved. I went down and saw all of them were busy in the preparations and Bhai saw me coming down and he came near me
"My baby is looking like a princess," he said, and I smiled at him and kissed his cheeks
"Good morning Bhai," I said to him then Atharv came. I smiled at Atharv and kissed his cheeks and hugged him tight and said good morning and even Bhai joined us and we three shared a good hug.
It was 11 when his family came, Mukti came immediately to my room
"Looking awesome Aru," said Mukti and even she was not less
"Even you too madam looking stunning," I said to her and she smiled. Then we both were asked to come down and we both went down and I saw him he was looking perfect in his Armani suit. He is looking handsome and he was looking at me without blinking his eyes. Later he smiled at me and even I too smiled at him.
I took his parents blessings and was made to sit beside him, and this is the first time I am this close to him but there was a distance between us. His mother came near me and spread the red cloth on my head and later she gave me the plate with all those necessary things and a jewelry set
"This is our family jewels and I am passing it to you now and take care of it," said his mother but I can't accept it because they are very precious, and I know I may lose it any time
"Aunty can I say one thing," I asked her so that I can explain it to her
"Yes sure," she said and I took a deep breath and spoke "I know aunty you want to give it to me but aunty I want it to be with you and in future whenever I want this I will only come and ask you in person and I am saying it to keep with you because I know it is very precious to you"
Finally, I said all the things in my mind and closed my eyes and later I felt a kiss on my forehead. I opened my eyes to see aunty kissing me and I smiled at her
"Only on one condition I will accept this back," said aunty and I am more than ready to do anything for that, so I just nodded to her to say her condition
"From now onwards you won't call me, you will call me mom" as soon as she finished a big smile appeared on everyone face and I smiled and nodded
"Ok, au... Sorry mom" I said, and she smiled and then his father came and gave me a gift.
Then my parents came and gave him roka and spoke something to him to which he smiled. Even though I am beside him I am not able to hear their talks and I even don't know about the gift given to him by my parents. Finally, the roka is done and from now I am officially going to be engaged girl and I don't know what will happen, I am more nervous now
"Why can't we do the engagement today only," said mom, and maa (Aria mom) nodded to her and I was just scared now, and I think if we gave permission, they will do the marriage also today only.
I am looking at both of them and they both were busy in planning and I am not able to understand anything and my thoughts were broken by his voice
"Mom please can we do the engagement after she came from the camp because if we do today she will be exhausted and she won't be able to perform her duties well at the camp" he spoke and I am impressed by him because he is thinking of me and he has concern for me. I smiled at him
"Super now only uou is thinking like this Aadiv and I don't after marriage you will be a lovesick puppy" spoke Atharv to irritate me and I seriously don't understand from where he gets these lame ideas he is seriously so much sometimes.
"Shut up you idiot" Bhai scolded him, and I smiled at him and how can I forget about my best friend Mukti
"Parv why are you shouting at Atharv he said correctly only" came her reply and I am sure now she will not leave me
"What is there to tease in that and if you decided to tease then tease because I am not affected by teasing and if she feels uncomfortable with that I will kill you both" came Aadiv reply and I smiled at him and he too smiled at me and they all decided to start another teasing session but before that Aadiv again gave them a chance by looking at me continuously.
"Aadiv I know my sister is beautiful... And if you keep looking at her then one day, I am sure you will get bored of her" Atharv spoke breaking our small eye lock. I looked down and blushed not because of Atharv words but because of his intense gaze even now.
"I will never get bored of seeing her like this" Aadiv spoke which led to our eyes get kicked again. Thank God before starting another teasing session my mom came near us and asked us to have lunch as it 1:00 already so we all went and had our lunch.
