Nothing Without You
Disha's POV
In the afternoon, it was muh dikhaai some neighbors would be coming to see the new bride of Singhanias. I had to get ready. The outfit is perfect, I just have to do a little bit of touch-up.
I got ready and went downstairs, Maa put a chunni on my head and covered my face.
After some time, some ladies started to come; they all saw my face one by one, giving me blessings and gifts.
" Disha, she is Kaira's mother, Geeta Mehrotra, and a very close family friend of ours." Maa introduced her to me.
" Namaste, Aunty" I got up to touch her feet.
" Jeetey raho beta, Reema, she is perfect for our Reyaansh and this house," She said to Maa, and I smiled.
" Haan Disha se achi ladki mil hi nahi sakti thi Reyaansh ko" Maa said.
( Yes we wouldn't have found a better girl than Disha for our Reyaansh)
" Maa agar muh dikhai hogayi ho to hum bhabhi ko apne sath le jayein," Anahita said, entering along with Kaira.
( Mom if the ceremony is over, can we take our sister-in-law with us)
" Haan beta jao thak gayi hogi tum bhi," Maa said, and I went with them.
(Yes you go, you must be tired here)
We got inside Anahita's room and sat on the bed. " Finally bhabhi aap humein akeli mili, ab hum baatein kar sakte hain aap se" Anahita said.
( Finally, you are alone now we can do our chit-chat now)
" I know, we didn't get the time to interact with each other alone," I said.
" So bhabhi, tell us about your life before marriage," Kaira said.
" There is nothing special to tell about my life before marriage," I said, shrugging my shoulders.
" Do you have any male friends in the past?" Anahita asked
" I didn't have any friends except Preeti; she is my only friend," I said.
" How is it possible, bhabhi, you didn't have any friends in school or college? Kaira asked surprised.
" No, I was a very introverted girl, so I never talked with someone or anyone else to come to talk to me," I said, and they were looking at me with unknown expressions in their eyes; maybe pity?
After that, we talk some more about their life. Both girls are very sweet and jolly, I liked their company.
We were talking when Maa called us downstairs. We all went downstairs; as soon as I saw Siddharth, Preeti, and Maasi, I ran toward them snd and hugged them. I miss them a lot.
" Aap logo ne bataya nahi aap log aa rahe ho" i asked them.
( You guys didn't tell you that you were coming)
" Surprise dena tha na tujhe" Preeti said. ( Yeah we wanted to surprise you)
Maa welcomed them all, we all were sitting in the living room. " Dishu theek hai na tu?" Sid asked me.
( Dishu, you are fine, right?)
" I am completely fine, Bhai; how are you?" I said.
" I am fine, but it feels lonely at home without you," he said with sadness. I can understand his feelings; since childhood, only both of us had each other back. Now as I am not there, he might be feeling very alone.
" Don't worry, Sid, I'll find myself a bhabhi, then she'll take care of you," I said to lighten the mood. He smack my head.
" Zyada mat bol. waise tera pati kaha hai?" He asked.
( Don't talk much, btw where is your husband?)
" Kuch zaroori kaam tha, isliye office gaye hain. Ajayenge ghar jaldi," I said, and he nodded.
(Something urgent came up, so he went to the office)
All of us were chit-chatting about Random things.

Avyaansh's POV
I was coming home from the office; I saw Aadarsh also entering the home. I had some important work in office so had paid the urgent visit.
" Kaha se aa raha hai?" I asked Aadarsh.
( Where were you?)
" Dost ke sath gaya tha," he said, and I nodded. ( I was with a friend)
As I entered the house, voices of laughing and talking came from the living room. Aadarsh and I gave each other a look.
I took a look in the living room and was shocked to see everyone in the living room. Along with her.
Preeti's outfit
She was looking like an angel as always, but white enhanced her beauty more.
We went and greeted all of them and sat there.
" Kids, why don't you guys go? You will be bored with us," Sheetal Chachi said and internally thanked her.
We got on the terrace and these girls started to talk with each other, forgetting our existence.
" Guys, these girls will have their girly talk now, I think we should go and do something our type," I said, and they both agreed.
We all came into the gaming room." So Siddharth which game would you like to play?" I asked.
" I have never played a video game," he said, and Aadarsh and I looked at him like he was an alien.
" What? You have never played a video game? Then what would you do in your childhood?" Aadarsh asked him.
" Work," he said, looking down, I think this is some serious stuff; we should not say much about it.
" So, do you wanna try? We'll teach you how to play?" I said and he nodded.
Just like that, we were playing, and we could see Siddharth was enjoying it. I think he missed a lot of childhood fun to handle himself and Bhabhi's needs.
After some time, they were going now. I was looking at Preeti; she didn't even notice me once. Now, only Bhabhi will help me win her heart.
Reyaansh's POV
I know I was very late in going home, but I don't know where I caught up in work.
I went, and no one was there, I looked everywhere to find anyone, but none were seen.
" Happy Birthday!" Suddenly shouting was heard and then I realized it was my birthday.
All my family members came and wished me well. At the end, Disha came smiling, and there went my heartbeat up to the sky.
" Happy Birthday," she said in her sweet voice, and I nodded.
Everyone went to their rooms, we also entered inside. We both changed into comfortable clothes and sat in our respective sleeping places.
There was an awkward silence, which I didn't like at all. I am a person who likes silence, but with her, it is awkward.
" So how was your day?" I asked her.
" It was good, muh dikhai was done, then Sid, Preeti, and maasi came to meet me," she said.
" They were here?" I asked and she nodded.
" I am sorry for being late" i don't know why i apologized!.
" It's ok" she said and then we both went to sleep.
