Happy Reading ❤️

Being tensed about how to face Neil after rejecting him even if when she  feels for him is making Ayesha squirm with anxiety

"No no no..... What will I say if he asks something or what if he would bash out at me"  , she said talking to herself walking around her room to and forth

"Aahh I should have denied Vishakha aunty" , she said sitting down on her bed covering her face with her hands

"It will be difficult for me and for Neil as well.... already I have hurted him a lot and if again I would be in front of him it would be like provoking him aahhhh what should I do.... Should I call aunty and tell her that I am not well...yes I should" , she said and picked up her phone to call her satisfied with her not so good plan

"Aaahh nooo she will catch my lie" , she sighed

Taking a deep breath she said

"There is no option left I need to face it...... huhh ok"

She completed speaking when the door bell rang

"Ahmm what....... Joseph is here , I have not even brushed my teeth yet aaahhhh , kya ho raha hai" ( what's going on ), she said scratching her hair irritatedly

Making her hair with her hands she went to open the door quickly

"Joseph please wait .... Aaaa Aaru Riya" , Ayesha shouted

"Aah girl will you stop making us deaf" , Aaru said putting her hands on her ears

Narrowing her eyes Ayesha said

"I was not that loud ok"

"Whatever" , Aaru said and pushed Ayesha a bit and went inside making Ayesha glare her

Taking a bag from Riya both went inside only to see Aarohi laying on the sofa with her eyes closed keeping the speed of fan to its fullest

Riya sighed and sat beside her

"Riyu what's this firstly you went without much information and after that no calls nothing and when I called it was unreachable everytime then today you came just like a ghost why didn't you two informed me" ,  Ayesha spoked

"Take a breathe Ayesha I will tell you everything" , Riya said

"I went suddenly because it was my mom who insisted that we have something really important work in Manali"

"Yeah that I know but what was your important work" , Ayesha asked

"Ayu leave all this look at my photo I clicked on the mountains it's beautiful know" , Aaru spoked interrupting them

"Aaru shut up , I will look at it afterwards" , Ayesha said annoyingly

Seriously this girl

"Yes then what was the work" , she asked again

"Aree nothing aunty wants our Riyu to get married and she took her with her because she wanted to fix an alliance" , Aaru spoked out of blue

"Whatttt" , Ayesha shouted being shocked

"Jeez girl I told you already will you stop making us deaf" , Aaru said

"Shut up" , Ayesha said loudly

"Riya ?? "

"Yeah this is true" , Riya said

"Whoa....what you are getting married seriously this soon" , Ayesha said

"What this soon according to aunty it's too late" , Aarohi said

"Riyu are you ok with it like are you ready" , Ayesha asked sitting beside Riya rubbing her palms with hers

"Honestly speaking Ayu when I got to know why my mom took me all the way there just because she wanted me to get married I was very angry because firstly I wanted to complete my degree then I was never into the concept of arranged marriage but...

"But"  , Ayesha said in anticipation

"But when I met him he was not that type of person I thought he was really nice , firstly I was too afraid about this alliance that.......will it work or not......or how would be the man my mom approved for me will he be all demanding one but I was so....so wrong Ayu he is really a good person and after meeting him I really thought to give it a chance....give us a chance" , Riya spoked with red hue spreading over her cheeks

"Ahmm ahmm just look at you Riyu , I really can't believe it....it's you the girl who was allergic to marriage is blushing just because of a man"  , Ayesha said teasing her

"Now I want every single detail tell me who is he and what he does" , Ayesha asked excitedly crossing her legs up

"You know what the best part is he leaves here in Mumbai" , Riya spoked smilingly

"Really" , Ayesha said and smiled

"Yeah and he works as a PA here in some renowned company" , she said

"So you didn't asked where does he work like he isn't lying na" , Ayesha asked

"No Ayu actually I asked him the same but he said he will show me his office or to be exact his Empire where he work as a PA of the CEO" , Riya replied

"Ooh nice....and his name ? " , Ayesha said

"Sagar Mehra" , Aaru spoked again in between

"And here look at these love birds" , Aaru said showing Sagar and Riya's photos

"Look at you Riyu and I must say your too be husband is handsome you guys look great together" , Ayesha said complimenting Riya

"So that means your alliance is fixed" , Ayesha said

"Ahmm well yes after exams we are getting engaged but wedding it's not soon because I and Sagar we both want to know each other first share some time and not rush into marriage" , Riya completed

"Uff ye pyar ( love ) "  , Ayesha said dramatically making Riya blush again

"Wait....Ayu suddenly I remember when you opened the door for us you said Joseph.....if I am not wrong....right Ayu" , Aarohi asked Ayesha out of the blue

This girl I swear

"Yeah even I heard but it slipped out of my mind yeah Joseph....who is Joseph and if I am not wrong then is this Neil sir's bodyguard Joseph" , Riya asked

"And why will he be here" , this time it was Aaru who asked

"Ayesha why are you not answering" , Riya said

"Shhhhhhhh quiet , let me speak" , Ayesha said standing up

"Actually Joseph is coming here to pick me up because there is some Puja organised by Vishakha aunty at their home because Adwik is returning home today and she wants me to be a part of this puja" , Ayesha completed saying while Riya and Aarohi nodded their head understandingly

"Then why aren't you ready till now" , Riya said

"Yeah..... actually I don't want to go....but......aaahhh why don't you two come with me" , Ayesha asked hoping for them to agree so that she don't have to face Neil as she could just stick with them

"What us ? So you want me and Aaru to join you to Malhotra Mansion" , Riya asked and Ayesha nodded excitedly

"Sorry but I am not coming" , Riya said clearly

"Even I am not" , Aarohi added

"What...but why please come na" , Ayesha pleaded

"No Ayu she invited you first of all and we would have come but the thought of encountering with Rrithik's mom I am not coming sorry" , Riya said

"I agree" , again Aaru added

"Ok I understand" , Ayesha said sadly

"Joseph where the hell are you" , Neil shouted on his phone

"Sir....I am on my way to fetch Ayesha ma'am to Malhotra Mansion" , he replied

"And with whose permission" , Neil shouted again

"Sir.....wo.....sir act....actually Vishakha ma'am asked me to bring her so....

"And you went" , Neil asked

"Are you my bodyguard or my mom's assistant" , Neil shouted

"Sir how could I deny Vishakha ma'am" , he said , his voice all low

Hearing his voice Neil sighed

"Joseph....sorry I shouldn't have shouted at you" , Neil said frustrated with his behaviour

"It's ok sir" , Joseph said

"Have you reached" , Neil asked

"Almost sir" , he replied

"Ok drive safely" , Neil said and disconnected the phone

Throwing his phone angrily Neil sighed fisting his hands

"Aree Neil what happened why are you angry" , it was Rupali who entered his room

Neil didn't replied to her question in place he bent down and picked up his phone

"God Neil there is no scratch on your phone wow even I want this same phone" , Rupali said looking at his phone

"A new one will be there for you till evening ok" , Neil said

"But I want this.... same company and same model this is the latest one I know" , Rupali said

"Yes the same company and same model will be delivered by today evening happy" , Neil said again

"Thank you so much Neil" , she said while Neil just nodded

"Oh I forgot why I came here actually take this your kurta set which you are supposed to wear for this Puja" , Rupali said forwarding a bag to Neil

"Ok" , Neil replied taking the bag from her

"Ok get ready and come down , Vishakha bhabhi will be home anytime soon with Adwik"

Neil nodded and she left

Taking up a bath and wearing up his white kurta Neil came out standing in front of the mirror applying his perfume and setting his hairs all the time thinking about the only person who have occupied his mind

Wearing his watch and lastly checking up on his look he went down

Everyone was ready for the puja

He could see Rupali and his uncle giving instructions to the Pandit ji while Rrithik was busy giving instructions to the servants

"Ohoo bhaiya looking dashing ha" , it was Nia who said looking at Neil

Neil smiled at her and patted her head lovingly

"Bhaiya look at this na it's not locking up please help na" , Nia said showing her bracelet to Neil which she wasn't able to lock

"Give it I will do it" , Neil said and helped her wearing her bracelet

"Thank You bhaiya...I love you" , Nia said and hugged him

"Bhai" , someone spoked and everyone turned towards the gate

Yeah it was Adwik

Seeing Adwik Nia ran to him

It has been a long time and finally he is hear now the most notorious member of this family

His hands are still fractured while his forehead still have bandages still he look fine from before

Rupali went to him with aarti's plate and after performing it he finally came inside

"Don't do this to us again Adwik" , Rupali said while Adwik just nodded with tears in her eyes just looking at Neil

"Bhai" , he said again but Neil didn't answered making Adwik heart clench

Walking slowly Adwik went towards him and hugged him finally breaking up in tears

"I.....I am sorry I...I am sorry Bhai please forgive me or....or beat me.... hit me but please don't do this to me bhai please talk me please don't distance me from you please bhai I can everything but I can't handle your ignorance please bhaiya" , Adwik said all the way crying

Neil patted his back slowly and tried to break the hug but Adwik wasn't ready to leave him

"No no I will not leave you....you will again act cold in these days you don't even came to meet me nor you talked to me you know....you know ever....everyday I waited for you to come but you didn't came once to see me" , Adwik said complaining to his big brother just like a child

Little did he knew that it was Neil who every night sat outside his room in the hospital but never showed up because he just can't look at his little brother in that condition

"Why should I come when you didn't thought of me even once" , Neil said

"I am sorry bhaiya I won't do this again I promise please bhaiya I am sorry" , Adwik said still hugging him

"Ok now let me go" , Neil said

"No first you say that you aren't angry" , Adwik demanded just like a child does

"Not this soon Adwik you need to be punished for not paying attention and taking everything ever so lightly" , Neil said and broked the hug

"I am sorry bhaiya , I am ready for everything , whatever punishment you will give I will take it happily but please don't stop talking with me please" , Adwik pleaded holding Neil's hands

"We will talk about this later first go and change and come down for the puja" , Neil said while Adwik again hugged him as if his life is dependent on him

"Thank You bhaiya I love you" , he said smilingly making everyone in the room shed happy tears seeing their bond

"Forgot me monkey" , Rrithik said

"Are you serious Bhai" , Adwik said smiling and the trio hugged

"I too wanna join" , Nia shouted and went to join the group hug

"God keep all the evil eyes off my children" , it was Neil's grandmother saying looking at the siblings and praying to God

Vishakha hugged her mother-in-law smilingly

"Ok enough of this Bharat Milap , Adwik go freshen up and come down everything is ready" , Vishakha said laughingly

"Yes mom" , Adwik said

"Come Adwik I will help you" , Rrithik said and both went

"Neil where is Joseph isn't he hear till now" , Vishakha asked

"I don't know mom... Actually I called.........

He stopped mid way spotting someone his eyes were eager to find

"Kya bol na chup kyu ho gaya" , Vishakha frowned seeing him freezed

( Why are you quiet ? )

Seeing Neil all freezed and not even blinking and answering she found him suspicious

She frowned and looked back where his eyes were stucked to spot Ayesha standing on the door looking beautiful yet so sober , attractive yet so sweet seeming lost in her own thoughts looking down

"Ayesha" , Vishakha screamed excitedly and walked towards her quickly

"Aunty" , Ayesha said and smiled seeing someone known

Till then she was feeling like a lost child in this big mansion

A wave of relief passed over her seeing Vishakha

She smiled with her heart seeing her and ran to hug her

Vishakha too hugged her and welcomed her kissing her forehead while Ayesha remained overwhelmed by the love she was getting

This all didn't go unnoticed by Neil he looked , studied and understood Ayesha's every single emotion

How lost she was feeling....how her face fell and how she got happy seeing his mom

But seeing Vishakha kissing her forehead made him pout but he was more satisfied seeing the bond between them

He smiled seeing the two important ladies of his life hugging each other

He felt content

"Ofhoo will you keep on standing here come , ahmm Ayu you are looking drop dead gorgeous today" , Vishakha complimented making Ayesha blush

"Thank You aunty" , she replied

"Actually it was my friends idea to wear a saree"

"And I must say it's a very good idea"

"Ma'am"  , a servant called out

"Yeah coming wait" , Vishakha said

"Ayu sit here for 5 mins I'll just come"

"No...no it's ok aunty you go I am fine" , Ayesha said sweetly

Standing alone in this big luxurious hall she felt lost again lifting her eyes lashes slowly her eyes roamed across the hall may be in a hope to find someone but her face again fell spotting no one

She took a step to follow where Vishakha went only to be pulled in a corner by someone

She was about to shout when she saw him while Neil covered her mouth with his hand making Ayesha utterly shocked

"Shhhhhhh" , Neil gestured her and her body relaxed

"Are you trying to kidnap me Mr. Neil Malhotra" , Ayesha asked glaring him

"Well for now I am not but if it's the only way then I can you know" , Neil replied playfully winking at her

"Are.....are y..you serious" , Ayesha asked stammering a little

While Neil just nodded innocently

"Were you looking for me" , Neil asked looking into her eyes

"Who me.... no why would I" , Ayesha replied quickly

"Try again" , Neil said while Ayesha completely got off guard seeing Neil understanding her so well that he could catch her lies this instant

"I know you well Honeybun" , he said looking at her without breaking up the eye contract

Looking into his eyes she felt losing and drowning in them.....she could read thousands of emotions in his eyes while her reflect no less

She was so lost that she completely forgot where she was standing

Their eye contract was more intimate than they were right now.....no one ready to break it up first

"Ayu" , Vishakha called out bringing the her back into the world

Ayesha panicked seeing her coming towards the hall while Neil was still lost into her

"Ne....Neil aunty is coming go" , she said fearfully looking at Vishakha while Neil was too lost in her to concentrate

Sensing no response from Neil , Ayesha looked up only to see him already looking at her with emotions she could clearly read in his eyes but here not getting caught was more important

It would be so embarassing if someone would see them like this

No...no....no

"Neil , aunty is coming..........Neil" , this time Ayesha shaked him bringing him out finally

"Neil.....aunty" , Ayesha said and panicked

"Ayesha" , Vishakha called out again

"What should we do now she will see us" , Ayesha said while Neil looked up thinking something

"Neil "

"Shhhhhhhh quiet don't worry nothing will happen do you trust me" , he asked while Ayesha remained quiet

"Do you trust me Ayesha" , he asked again

Ayesha nodded while Neil smiled in victory

"Then nothing will happen" , Neil said smirking while Ayesha looked at him confusingly
