We all settled in the living room after the Malhotra's left and they all were discussing my marriage preparations, but I remembered that I should ask from where they got this idea of marriage
"Mom I forgot to ask how you got this match," I asked her, and mom smiled at me
"Nyonika was my friend in NGO I work and when you came to NGO one day nyonika saw you, then she asked me about this, and I gave it a chance" came her reply and I just nodded at her
"Mom we didn't see your wedding pictures only, where are they??" Asked Atharv and even I thought that yeah, we didn't see their wedding pictures
"Wait I will get them" my mother left from the hall leaving me with my brothers
"You know what Aru for your marriage I am only going to be a photographer" said Atharv boosting his photography skills
"Then definitely they will the worst pics in the world," I said and gave a hi-fi to Bhai and we both laughed seeing Atharv bad face
"I know you both don't support me at all," said Atharv with a bad face but we both know that the sad face is just a drama
"Ok idiot you only take the pics," Bhai said and Atharv gave him a thousand-dollar smile
"But professional photographer will be there" Bhai spoke and I showed Atharv my tongue and he threw a cushion beside him on me which I caught
"You both can't stand without fighting" spoke my dad who came in the hall along with mom with the pics
"No it's manufacturing defect, because you sent her first outside leaving me inside" came Atharv reply and I nodded at them and we all settled looking at my parent's wedding pics but they were different I mean they are not near to any rituals I know
"Why are the pictures looking different and I am not understanding any pic here," I asked and saw even my brothers have the same expressions and my parents smiled may be remembering those days
"Yeah they are different because we married each other in Telugu culture (a south Indian style of wedding)" spoke my dad and mom had tears now in her eyes which made all of us shock
"Why you did in Telugu culture dad??" asked Bhai and Atharv being the idiotic soul there he went and took the pics from my mother
"Mom you are not beautiful that time your beautiful now only" came his idiotic statement and I so wished to beat him there, but this sentence made my mom smile, so I postponed his death in my hands.
"Ok I will tell the story, we both belong to Andhra Pradesh only and we both fell in love and got married but later in an accident, my parents and her parent died and that day we came to know that it was done by my father brother for the property and that day we both left all the property there itself and broke all the relations and came here and settled here gradually" dad spoke and he completes his story in small paragraph and I was shocked because who can steep so low for property
"Then we got three gems in our life" mom spoke referring to us three and we smiled, and we all hugged each other in a group hug.
"Come let's have dinner" spoke mom as we broke the hug. We all nodded and settled ourselves on the table. That's when I saw my favorite pancakes on the table. I am about to grab them, but Atharv came in middle and grabbed them before me.
"Atharv" I shouted at him while he showed me his tongue. I looked at him with anger to which he is least affected.
"Mom, see him" I spoke to a mom who glared at Atharv pulling the pancakes from him. She handed the pancakes to me. This time I showed my tongue to him.
"Don't worry you will be here only for two months and in that, you will go one month for camp so no problem I will have those pancakes all my life" he spoke, and before I could realize my eyes became blurry due to water content in it. Parv Bhai saw me and engulfed me in a side hug.
"Don't worry princess we will be there for you all the time" he spoke, and I nodded my head at him. I kept my head on his chest while he fed me dinner with his hands. All the while I laughed seeing Atharv sulking face.
After finishing our dinner, we all left to our rooms and it was already 10:00 at night because I spent the most time talking with Atharv and Bhai because I will miss them a lot in the coming month
I was about to sleep but my attention fell on my mobile which was in my room only from the morning and I opened it to check any calls and messages.
I saw a message from hospital reminding about the timings and all then I saw missed calls from Eshana and that too 25 calls and I was shocked that what happened to her and I immediately called her
"What happened Eshu are you fine??" I asked her as soon as she received the call
"Yeah I am fine, and I called to inform you that I got a job" came to her reply and I am sure she must be smiling like an idiot
"Superb which hospital??" I asked her and I prayed that she also must work in a city hospital so that we both can work in the same hospital and it will be fun
"City hospital" came her reply and even I started to dance in my room because from now my bestie will work with me
"Superb from now we can work together" I spoke
"We will think about that later but now go and sleep, you have to do a journey tomorrow" spoke Eshana and I agreed with her and said bye to her and disconnected the call. I saw a missed call from Aadiv and I was about to call him back but my mobile beeped with a message from Aadiv
"Go and sleep now you should do journey tomorrow and it's by road so you will be tired easily and now good night will meet you tomorrow" was his message and I smiled at his caring attitude
Yes, we are traveling by road because we have much medical equipment to carry with us and it's uncomfortable to carry them in flight or train that is the reason they decided to go by road and it will start from our hospital at 8:30 in the morning so that we will reach by night to our first destination Hyderabad and from there we will go to the camp area.
"Ok good night and see you tomorrow" I replied to him and kept my phone aside and slept on the bed and my thoughts traveled around Aadiv this time
Will I be able to take this relation??? will he be like this only for his life long??
will he be there in all my happiness and sorrow??
will we be successful in this relationship??
Don't know when I slept with all these thoughts and I woke up when those idiotic sun rays disturbed my sleep and I sat on my bed rubbing my eyes with my palm
"Good morning princess" I heard that voice and I turned to see both Bhai and Atharv standing at the room door and I stood from my place with a sad face and hugged Bhai and hide my face in the crook of his neck
"Slept well" asked Atharv and I nodded my head in a no
"Those disturbed my sleep," I said and pointed towards the window from where sun rays were coming and they both smiled at each other
"Don't worry princess now you should wake anyhow because it already 7:30 and remember you should be at the hospital by 8:00?" said Bhai and I jumped in my place and rushed to get ready and they both giggled seeing my rush and they went down
I got fresh and went down wearing simple jeans and top so that they will be comfortable for my journey and when I went down I saw all the Malhotra family already there and I greeted everyone and hugged Eshana and took blessings of his parents and smiled at Aadiv who was seeing me only from the start and that is the time I saw his attire and he was looking handsome in a simple dress even
We all had our breakfast and I saw the time it was showing 8:20 already and I am damn nervous now because this is the first camp I am going and now I am late and I am sure they will remove me because the journey from here to the hospital will take nearly 25 minutes and including traffic now it will take nearly 40 mins my thoughts were broken by my mobile which was showing hospital number and I was sure something is going to happen and I received the call
"Hello" my voice was damn nervous now
"Aria no need to rush because now the journey time was postponed to 9:30 as some medicine didn't reach here still" came the reply from the receptionist and I took a deep breath in relief
"Thank you for the information," I said and disconnected the call and saw all of them looking at me and I explained the scenario to them. They smiled at me and I looked at Aadiv who was smirking as if he has done this but then he smiled at me and I too smiled at him now. I want to speak to him because one month I won't be able to talk to him in direct and about phone calls I don't know will I be able to talk to him regularly because of camp.
"So, let's move all of us," said Atharv bringing me out of my thoughts and servants bought my luggage from the room and I went and took the luggage from them and loaded them in the car.
"Ok we all elders will go in one and Parv and Atharv along with Eshana come with the luggage car and Aadiv and Aria you both will be in one car," said mom and I looked at her with an open mouth because I was going to the hospital and she is telling me to take three cars and I nodded my head in disbelief as I know about my mother very well and she did this so that I can spend some time with Aadiv.
They all nodded and they settled in the cars and left us both alone there and I looked at him
"So, all set," he asked, and I nodded at him
"Shall we??" He asked showing his car and I nodded again. He opened the car door for me and I smiled at him. I settled in the car and this process his hand touched mine and we both looked at each other and our eyes locked and there is always some magic in those eyes which always captivates me every time.
I broke the eye lock soon and he came towards the driver seat and settled and ignited the engine and move from there.
