Sitara and ruhaan went downstairs,hands in hands
"Ab to bhai hatho mai hath dalke hi ghumenge dono" akshita teased
(Now they'll roam everywhere holding hands)
Sitara's eyes widen at her statement, she tried to remove her hand but ruhaan hold it tighten
"Ha to,bohot mushkil se mila hai ye haath" ruhaan said proudly
Sitara's cheeks became red,everyone was present afterall. She freed somehow and move towards Nishtha
"I'm so happy today. My daughter is coming back to us" Nishtha said cupping her cheeks
"Sorry maa" she said and hugged her
"Now promise me,if ruhaan ever try to hurt you,you'll come to me. I will twist his ears so hard" Nishtha said pulling back
"Sure maa" sitara said and giggled
She move towards advik and stood holding her ears,advik was standing crossing his hands around his torso
"Sorry bhai" sitara said with puppy eyes
"Do you really think this will work" advik said narrowing his eyes
"May be" she said and pout
"You're right then" he said and smiled
"Bhai" saying this she hugged him
"Congratulations sitara" he said caressing her hairs
"Thank you bhai" she pulled herself back
"Dad,sorry and thank you so much" sitara moved to madhav and hugged her,he too hugged her back and caressed her hairs
"Be happy always baccha" he said and kissed her hairs
"Dad,I'm sorry" sitara said to kabeer
He was standing infront of her expressionless,she tilted her head and saw him nodding
"You hugged Nishtha, you hugged advik,you hugged madhav,can't you hug me? I guess I don't have thorns" he said and smiled
"Thank you so much dad" she said and hugged him. Kabeer rarely shows his affection towards his loved ones openly, and this time he was talking about her daughter ,ruhaan smiled looking at them. Everyone has adoration eyes
"Now you don't have to hide anything from me,I can't be madhav for you but I will try my best to treat you like him" kabeer said and caressed her hairs
"You're just like him to me" sitara said and smiled with happy tears
"Ha bhai haa,bhul hi jao ab Hume sab,humara kya hai kal bhi paraye the aaj bhi paraye hai" akshita said dramatically
(It's fine,forgot me. I was always been outsider hunhh)
"Awwww aap to sabse pyare hai mujhe" sitara said and give her tight hug
(Awww you're most loved one)
"Congratulations my star" akshita said and kissed her cheek
"Thank you so much bhabhi" sitara said with smile
"I guess I'm also getting married, no body is giving attention to me" ruhaan said scrunching his nose
"They won't give you attention Mr attention seeker. Afterall I'm their lovely daughter" sitara teased
"Hunhh Don't think too much tara,they are giving you attention because you're a cry baby,itna to advika ekansh bhi nahi rote" ruhaan said showing his tongue
"Ruhaaannn" she whined and tries to slap his chest but he ran
Sitara followed him holding knife which was near her,she was running behind him but bumped with kabeer,knife fell down. Sitara lower her head. Kabeer had stern look
"I'm sorry dad..." sitara was saying,kabeer bend down and took knife in his hands. Evryone looked at him in tension
"Don't you think this is too much,I mean I know he is dead in your love but is it necessary to kill him actually" kabeer teased, sitara looked at him in amusement
"See I don't show but I love my kid. Please mercy on him. He is already dead in your love" kabeer said joining his hands
Everyone laughed,sitara's cheeks turned red. And ruhaan smirked standing at main door
"Btw go and give him punishment for teasing you" kabeer said and move aside,she smiled and ran behind him
"Madhavji I think we should decide the wedding date,I can't wait to take sitara with us now" Nishtha said with wide smile
"Yes,I called priest already, he is on his way" madhav replied
Here,ruhaan was running and sitara was chasing him. Ruhaan smirked and ran towards the pool. Sitara too ran behind him. Ruhaan stopped at the edge of pool
"Sitara...please stop now..I can....can't...breath" ruhaan said breathing heavily
"Ruhaan ke bacche.....kya...fayda..itna...gym...karne ka...hunhh" she said holding her waist,she was also out of breath
"Don't..dragg...gym" he said
"I think you should stop doing gym now...you're getting old....31 years old man" she teased him and laughed
"Stop teasing me" he warned knowing she won't stop
"I will tease you and throw you in pull" she said showing her tongue
"You can't throw me and I know that" he said taunting
"Ruhaan I will,fir mat bolna kuch" she said and showed her index finger
"You can't tara,I know that. You don't have guts" he said rolling his eyes
Sitara raised her eyebrows, moved closer to him and pushed him in pool,but ruhaan was so quick to hold her hand while falling in water and in result, they both fell. This happned so quickly that sitara couldn't understand anything
"Why you pulled me too" sitara said wiping water from her face
"We should do everything together na" he said and pulled her closer
Water droplets were making him hot. Sitara was feeling warm under the cold water because of his intense gaze. She was out of breath under his hold. His grip on her hold was giving shiver to her body. Wet shirt was hugging his body tightly, his abs and biceps were visible.
"Ruhaan,someone will come,....please...please leave me" she said looking everywhere but him
"Look at me" he demanded in authoritative tone with husky voice
Her legs got weak,heart was beating fast and fast. Breaths were heavy. Ruhaan's hot breathes touched her forehead and she closed her eyes not having guts to match his gaze
"Tara look at me" he again ordered and pulled her more closer
She opened her eyes slowly and met her eyes with him. He was already staring her without blinking, desire was fully visible in his eyes
"Tara,we are starting our new life again. We should celebrate this na" he asked trailing his fingers around her waist
"Ruhaan...someone...will...come...please...leave...me" she said trembling
"Okay" he said and left her
Her expressions changed into confusion
"I said and you left me" she asked narrowing her eyes
"But you only wanted this na" ruhaan said crossing his hands around his chest "and I'm toh 31 years old man na,how can I understand what you 26 years old girl wants" he added shrugging his shoulders
"Can't you see in my eyes that I too want to kiss you,you idiot" she blunt out in frustration
Her confession was what he wanted. He knew that he wants her but he wasn't sure about her. And he didn't wanted to make her uncomfortable around him. He was teasing her so that she can confess, her one line was enough for ruhaan to pulled her closer and slammed his lips on her. She also wanted him to kiss her. Ruhaan's hands were covering her neck. She was clutching his collar tight. Their eyes were closed as they were feeling serenity in eachother's embrace. Normally ruhaan was always gentle with her but today he wasn't, he was kissing her passionately. She was trying to compete her but couldn't. His tongue was giving hard competition to her. She pinched him so that his attention can move a bit from the kiss and she could win but she failed. Ruhaan wasn't affecting with her tricks,he smirked. They both pulled out when sitara was lack of breaths,ruhaan joined his head with her. Both were panting hard
"Sitara,ruhaan" they heard akshita's yelling, both left eachother jerking
"What are they doing akshi" advik asked tapping his index finger on his chin
"I guess playing ninni ninni" she said and giggled
Sitara was looking everywhere but them. She was feeling shy and embarrassed. Ruhaan rolled his eyes and pulled her by waist
"None of your business bhai" ruhaan said
Sitara's eyes widen
"Okay okay play it on some other day, first go and change your clothes. Priest is here" advik said
"Okay" sitara said and left ruhaan,she came out from pool holding advik's hand for support, ruhaan to came out
They all were sitting together in hall. Priest was looking for auspicious day for their marriage. And in the end he said
"The auspicious day to get them married is after 15 days" he declared
"But Mayra is having exams after 15 days,we should extend the wedding" sitara said
Everyone agreed with her as they know Mayra will eat their heads if they'll decide date in her exams
"Okayy then,the next muhrat is aftet one month" priest said
"Perfect, congratulations madhav" kabeer said and hugged him
"You too" madhav said smilingly
Evryone Congratulated eachother
"I'll get the sweet" sitara said and left to kitchen
"Advik bhai,I'll be back in minute. Mr knight was calling me since long. I should talk to him na" ruhaan said with innocence
"Beta ji baat ye hai ke humne bhi shadi ki hai, aur do bacche bhi hai,to ye sari tricks aap hum par to mat azmaiye" advik said putting his elbow on Ruhaan's shoulder
(Thing is that I'm also married and having two kids. I know every tricks,wo please don't try to try them on me)
"You're overthinking bhai" ruhaan said and left
Sitara was arranging sweets in plate. Ruhaan came and hugged her from back. Her eyes got widen
"Ruhaan what are you doing,leave me" she said hitting her elbows on his chest
"C'mon sitara,we are getting married, atlest let me celebrate this with you" he said and hold her tighten
"Then eat this" she said and put piece of sweet in his mouth and giggled
"I love you" he said and kissed her cheek
"I love you too" she smiled and kissed her cheek
Their sweet moment was disturbed by madhav's call
"Coming dad" sitara said and ran outside
After deciding everything, oberois left. It was hard to say bye for ruhaan and Sitara to eachother
"Are you missing mumma" sitara asked madhav turning
"Yes,she would be happy today" he said and looked at his wife's photo
"She is with us. And giving me blessings" sitara said and hugged her
"Dad,we have no one from our side" sitara said with moist eyes
"It's okay beta,kabeer said na we are one family now" madhav said and caressed her hairs "and inform rishi about your marriage, he will come with hundred people" he said and chuckled
"I wish mumma was here" sitara said and tear slipped from her eyes
"I saw how Nishtha ji were treating you,I'm sure she will give you all the mother love" madhav said
"Yes dad,she actually treats me like her own daughter" she said and smiled
Aftet some chit chat,they left to their room
"Hmm,can't you live without talking to me Mr oberoi" sitara asked playfully, they were on call
"Wahi tooo,ab apki adat hi aisi ho gayi hai ke bas ye dil apko hi dekhta chahta hai,apki hi awaz sun na chahta hai" ruhaan said throwing himself on bed
(That's the thing na,this heart wants to see you,wants to hear your voice everytime)
Sitara blushed and leaned back to headboard
"To apne dil ko kahiye jara kabu ho jaye,abhi to aapko humare bija pura ek mahina guzarna hai" she said blushing
(Then tell your heart to control, you have to spend whole month without me)
"Hayeeeee,ye dard,dukh,pida. Kaise sahega Bichara mera chota sa dil. Aap jara rehem kijiye aur mil lijiye humse" ruhaan said putting his elbow on bed and head on that hand
(How will my tiny heart handle this pain. Please do mercy on my heart and meet me)
"Ruhaan,we just met" sitara said rolling her eyes
"Just??? Sitara it's 25 minutes and 20 seconds and you're saying just" he said amusement
"Ruhaan,you're gone" sitara said laughing
"Hunhh you will not understand my pain. Leave it" he said dramatically "by the way you know akshita bhabhi started doing shopping from now,can you belive she went to jewelry shop direct from your home. Maa and papa too started searching for their outfits" he said and laughed bit
Sitara's smile faded away,she lost in deep thoughts
"Hey,are you lost somewhere" ruhaan asked when he didn't get any response
"N..no ruhaan,i was hearing you" she said
"Tara,you can share everything and anything to me. I will listen" ruhaan said sensing her lie
"Ruhaan,you have the whole family to celebrate this happiness, maa,dad,advikbhai,akshitabhabhi,mayra, ekansh, advika everyone. But I have only dad. Sometimes I feel so lonely. I don't have anyone without dad here" she said in weak voice
"Who told you you don't have anyone there. Everyone is celebrating our happiness for us. You also have maa,dad,mayra,bhai and bhabhi. So Don't think much" he said making her understand
She just hummed at this. After this ruhaan changed tne topic for her. But he knew this topic will affect her
"By the way you'll wear red na. I love red on you" ruhaan asked
"Umm no,I've already seen pink for me" she said smirking
"Oh okay" he sighed
They talked for some good hours and slept
Next day,sitara woke up with her ringtone. She quickly attend the call After seeing rishi's name
"Hello" she said in sleepy voice
"Wahh madam,you're getting married and didn't informed me" rishi scolded
"Ufff,marriage date fixed yesterday only. How will I tell you" she said yawning
"Now open the Door" he said
"Why,are you here" she asked in shock
"Just open the door madam" rishi said
Sitara jumped out of her bed and ran towards main door. Opening the door,she found rishi standing there with Sakshi,his fiancee
"Oh my God are you for real" she said and jumped on him
"Yes,congratulations " rishi said caressing her hairs
"Thank you so much" she said and pulled back,she then hugged Sakshi
"Congratulations sitara" Sakshi said with gentle tone
"Thank you so much guysss" sitara said with moist eyes
"Will you call me or should we decide the theme and all here only" rishi asked shrugging his shoulders
"Arryy sorry,please come" she said and they entered
"You guys please be seated,I'll come fast" she said and left for shower
She came back and saw them sitting with her dad
"Hmmm,now tell me. Who told you about my wedding" she asked taking seat
"Who elese,your would be husband" rishi said
"Seriously, he told you" sitara asked in bit amusement
"Yes,he informed us yesterday only. And we were about to come india already. He told about your wedding so we extended our stay here" Sakshi said
"That's so sweet of you guys" sitara said with smile
"But sitara,I won't be able to live here. My family is here in India na,so they also wants to spend time with me" Sakshi said
"It's okay Sakshi,you guys will attend my wedding,it's itself a big thing for me" sitara said with gentle smile
After some chit chat,they left. Sitara tried to call ruhaan many times,but his phone was switched off since one hour. She decided to call akshita
"Hey bhabhi,where is ruhaan. His phone is switched off since an hour" sitara asked worrying
"We also don't know sitara,he didn't even came for breakfast. His car is also not here" akshita said worrying
"Don't get panic beautiful ladies,ruhaan's PA just informed me that he had to leave for Jaipur for urgent meeting. And his phone got dead from low battery, I guess sitara kept talking whole night with him" advik teased
"Thank God bhai,I was so worried" sitara's tensed shoulders felt relax
"Now don't worry about him and start preparing for your wedding,and please call me if you need any help" akshita said
"Sure bhabhi" saying this she cut the call
"We don't have any client or business partner from Jaipur. Then what's the urgency" sitara thought
