Aap hi rab aap imaan ban gaye

Aap humari jaan ban gaye

Zoya pov:

The bright sun rays falling upon me disturbing my sleep.

"Urghh...zoya you had forgotten to close the curtains last night" I mumbled sleeply.

Suddenly realisation hits me. I woke up while rubbing my eyes nd glanced at the wall clock... it's 9am. Today is mehendi and I was sleeping like a log...Huff...why didn't maa wake me up?..

Uff...thankgod I woke up on time...

I rose up from bed, went to the washroom to do my daily routine. I did my business, stepped out of the washroom and stood infront of my closet, stared at the dress which maa gave me last night to wear for mehendi yet I didn't feel comfortable in that dress.

Knock...

"Come in maa...when did you start knocking on my door" I said with out whirling around. I didn't get any response but I continued..

"Maa...I don't want to put on that lehenga which you gave me last night I mean I like it but I won't feel cosy in that dress. I want to wear this..." I said while twisting my head a little by gripping up a crop top and a capri with my both hands to show her and got froze.

Hoyee... it's not my maa... it's my devil😩....I dropped them because of shock and put my hands down and was trying to look at anywhere but not him while scratching my head with a nervous giggle.

Hoyee...ab mein kya karu...

"Abhi...vo..mein" I was trying to find words to speak while he was marching towards me with so much love and passion...

Abhi: you are looking damn sexy in my shirt sweetheart.

By hearing his words all the heat rushed to my cheeks making them pinkish and looked down coyly while clutching the hem of the shirt.

He hold my wrist nd by clasping it nd throwed me gently on my bed. I shrieked while he hovered over me. His legs are either side of my body and caged me in his hold. He leaned in more close and I could feel his mint breath fanning on my face and my heart was busy in screaming...

Labdub...

Lubdub...

Lubdub...

He leaned more closer to my lips and I don't know what came over me and blurted out...

"A-Abhi...we s-should start with a hygienic dating" I uttered while pinching my lips.

Abhi: haha... hygienic relationship... seriously sweetheart...you didn't forget that word till now..

He said in between his laugh...haye...😍 he looks so manly while laughing..

Hoyee...stop it zoya... hygienic relationship...you dimwit...you don't know how to speak... hufff..😩

Abhi: two days  back I was searching for this shirt ..hmm..when did you stole this from my closet.

"When I was cleaning and arranging your room I found this shirt and loved it so.." I was telling him shamelessly by dragging the word "so"..

Abhi: so you stolen it...hmm..

"Hey... Mr.Devil...i didn't stolen any money or gold of your's... it's just a shirt ...waise I didn't stolen it because I am your soon to be wife and I have full rights on your things which you had" I said boldly.

Abhi(naughtyly): Then I think I too have rights on you...waise when did you planned to give me a healthy kiss.

He wispered huskily against my ear while his gaze was lingering on my lips with a frisky smile on his face. I just wanted to hide my face from him...

"Vo...Abhi..mein..."

He leaned more closer to my lips and was about to kiss me...

Knock...

Knock...

"Cutiee... open the door" it's bhabhi.

"Tell me when will you kiss me" he asked me teasingly.

"A-Abhi...let me go...bhabhi is waiting outside"I said...

"Tik hai...I am leaving you now but not next time" he said with a smirk and got up from me and further added...

Abhi: here wear this dress...as I thought you will comfortable in this.

He said and opened the door, left to his room.when did he brought it here...uff...zoya when you were so busy in ogling at his handsome face then why would you notice what's there in his hands.

Uff...

Bhabhi(playfully): so cutiee.. morning morning mushy...mushy..

"Nahi... bhabhi..he just came to give me the dress" I said smiling shyly.

Bhabhi: ok..ok...I just came to check on you whether you got ready or not. Looks like you will take one hour to get ready and I think you will be late as usual.

"No... bhabhi...I will get ready in half an hour" I assured her.

Bhabhi: ok then, I will be back in half an hour.

I bobbed my head and she left my room. I quickly took a shower, dried my hair and wore the ethereal blue color embellished couture gown which Abhi gave me and put on a simple necklace on my neck. Mean while bhabhi came and told me that all were waiting for us. So I checked last time at my reflection on mirror and left.

By the time we reached dev was crying... bhabhi ran to him and tried to clam him but no...he is not listening to anyone...I too walked to him and was going to take him in my arms but Abhi took him before me and said..

Abhi: what happened my champ..why are you crying?

He cooed him while wiping his tears...

Dev: I t-too wanted to p-put...mehendi on my hands.

He said in his cute baby language..I smiled at him and said..

"Ok..then my little dev..who is stopping you from applying it" I asked him

Dev: Thy..

He pointed towards my friends nd I glared at them...

" Don't worry about them I will apply mehendi to you" y said in his baby language.

Dev: sachii...

"Mucchi" I said.

I walked to take the mehendi come from the artist and came back to them. Dev showed his little hands to me. I written his name while drawn a tiny design on his little hands...he glanced at it and giggled at me.

I chuckled at him and Abhi was staring at me.i quickly riveted my gaze and went to the henna artist to apply it on my hands. All the boys left including dev...

All were sitting and applying henna on their hands by the artists joyfully... but all my ecstatic mood immediately changed to horror when aunty suggested a stupid idea..

Aunty(cheerfully): choti  & hani...I will arrange a bachelorette party to night for both of you and will tell your Raj uncle to arrange bachelor party for boys too without getting caught to your papa...

"Noo..." I shouted quickly as soon as I heard her words..

Aunty(perplexed): why? What happen choti?

" I don't feel like partying aunty..and tomorrow is my wedding so I need a beauty sleep so that I will look more fresh & attractive...so don't arrange the party for us and for my Abhi too...

He too need to be more handsome" I stated.

Hani: haan aunty what if maama got to know about the party..what if he cancelled my wedding with my veer thinking that I am a party girl...no...I too don't want it.

They all looked at us like we both are some aliens..but i don't care..because I rejected the party  due to the scenes which I was imagining that what may happen in my Abhi's bachelor party... it's not like I don't trust him...of course I trust him...but I am not comfortable at this idea because tonight I planned to give him the kiss which he was asking me from last two days...hehe...😍😜

Phuphi: choti....I wanted to ask you from last two days...that... what have you done to my son..Now-a-days he is smiling so much.

"It's a secret" I said because I too don't know what happen to my iceberg.

Aunty: And what's that..

" I told you it's a secret then why are you asking me" I irked.

She pouted ...and I stick out my tongue at her.

Artist: maa what's your fiancee name...

"Abhimanyu" I said shyly.

Aunty: write in such a way that he should get tired while searching for it.

I smiled...after one hour everyone's mehendi is completed except mine...all husband's are feeding their wives...for dristi..monkey was feeding her while bulbul was busy in shooting daggers at him and for bulbul jai is feeding her while monkey was sulking...Huff.. don't know what will happen to my friend bulbul...after my marriage my mission is to play cupid between them...I looked at my bestiee aka hani...bhai was feeding her lovingly...they both are looking like love birds.

And my devil was eating my favourite Jalebi infront of me with a cocky grin in his face. I looked at the mouth watering jalebi 's and licked my lips...I just wanted to take a bite of it...yumm😋..but I shrugged away that thought because he is not going to feed me anyway.. that devil...wait till I got married to you my devil..

Uff..

It took one & half hour to complete the henna on my hands & legs and by the time it was over I'm dozzing off.

Artist: mam it's over..

She said and left...I am feeling so hungry and all were busy in feeding their life partners...and no one was there to feed to me. I sadly searched for my Abhi he is no where to seen and looked at my lap.

Abhi: sweetheart..

I quickly looked up and I saw my devil holding a plate which filled with tasty food. I grinned at him..he smiled at me in return nd sat infront of me. He fed food for me...

"Abhi ..I want jalebi" I said.

Abhi: first complete the food and atlast you can have it..

"No...Abhi..I want to eat it now" I stated.

Abhi(glaring): zoya...

I pouted at him with puppy eyes..he shook his head and fed me jalebii... yayy...it's so yummy..umm..😋hehe..he can't resist my pout...I was making sounds while eating the jalebi...and he glanced at me naughtily & said..

Abhi: Don't make those kinds of sounds sweetheart... people may think that I am doing something dirty to you.

I quickly stopped and grimced at him after feeding me he was going to leave but I called him..

"Abhi"

He whirled around and raised an eyebrow at me...

"One more jalebi" I asked him with a pout.

He smiled at me while nodding his head...hoyee... what happened to my iceberg...he is all smiling after the engagement...but I like this Abhi..😘

Anyway he came back with a plate completely filled with jalebi's....umm... yummy..my eyes danced in happiness.

I was so impatient to eat all those..he sat adjacently to me and forwarded the sweet near my mouth but before I took a bite of it..he quickly ate it taking away from my mouth... while a smirk was playing on his lips..

"A-Abhi.." I shouted little loudly at him.

Abhi(smiling): so now you have an audacity to shout at me.

I didn't say anything and scowled at him...

"Have it" he said while extending his hand near my mouth but I turned my face away...

Abhi: zoya..

I didn't respond to him but what he said next made me wanted to bang my head on a near by wall..

Abhi: ok then if you don't want it then I will eat it all by myself.

Arghh...my dimwit unromantic soon to be husband doesn't know how to ask his soon to be wife romantically like all hubby's ask their wives when they are angry.😡

Huff..

I angrily widen my mouth so that he would feed the sweet to me..after completing half plate...my stomach got filled.

"Enough Abhi...I can't eat more" I said.

He hummed and was about to leave but I called him... feeling itchy on my back...

"Abhi.." he looked at me.

"Vo...can you scratch on my neck I feel like itchy there" I showed him where I felt itchy.

He looked at me from top to bottom and said..

Abhi: how am I looking to you..

"Just like a human that's the reason I asked you..Abhi...it feels so itchy there.. please" I asked him with my cute puppy eyes.

He shook his head and scratched there and said..

Abhi(naughtily): Anywhere else you are still feeling itchy...

He said looking at my body with a wicked smile...

"No...you jerk" I said quickly and he left with a sly smile.

After sometime I went to my room and washed my hands & legs. After washing I saw that my mehendi is so dark and  glanced at Abhi name which was written beautifully. I smiled looking at it.

At night as I was going to his room... but I stopped in my tracks when I heard crying sound from Papa's room...I scuttered to their too nd slightly peeked in through the door, saw maa & bhai hugging papa... and crying that I am going to get married tomorrow.. it's heart touching but.. wait it's not like I am going to leave them..hani & I are very lucky that our inlaws & parents live in same house. We don't need to leave our home. I think something is there besides that which I don't know..

Papa: Akshitha keep that lehenga back in that Almirah..

Bhai: papa...if we ask choti...she will definitely wear it papa..she won't reject it...let maa ask her.

What dress...I wanted know what they are talking because it's about me and eavesdropping is bad...so I dropped the idea to vist my beast and pushed the door slowly to enter... they saw me...papa & maa wiped there tears..

Maa: choti...when did you came.

"Just now maa...why are you both crying?" I queried her.

Papa: we are not crying beta... it's just that tomorrow you are going to be married... thinking about that it seems like...my small daughter who used to do crazy things has become a lady nd was going to get married to her prince.

"Papa" I said.

He laughed while stretching his hands wide and I hugged him.

Bhai: choti...maa.. wants to ask you something..

Papa(glaring): veer beta...no..

"Papa you says and adores me like your own daughter then why are you denying maa when she wants to ask me something...Am I not your daughter to share the matter with me" I said angrily.

Papa: It's not like that choti...we may not be your biological parents but we always treated like you are my own daughter and always will be. And it's not a happy memory to share choti..if you wanted to know then we will share with you.

"Tell me papa I wanted to know whether it is good or bad" I commented.

Papa: when your badimaa was pregnant for the first time...she bought so many things for a daughter wanted and even designed this lehenga but the baby died after she came into the world in a month..

" So she wanted me to wear this lehenga but stopped at the thought that I had already have a lehenga which my mom & Abhi designed so I will reject to wear it" I completed.

They looked at me with a sad face..how could they think of me like that...I turned to maa..

"Maa...you know me & raised me for almost 22yrs and you still didn't understand me clearly" I said while tears brimming in my eyes.

"Nahi...choti.." she cried while placing her hand on my mouth to stop.

I took her hand gently from my mouth while holding her hand in my two hands...

"You think that I will value my mother more than you...but you are wrong maa...you both are equal to me.."

I twisted my neck towards papa & bhai and said...

"Papa...maa...bhai...I am so lucky that you people in never left me after my parents death instead you make me your child..I am so happy for that...so maa...when you treat me as your daughter... then you should also give me the lehenga which you had designed for your daughter.. may be my sister died but I am still alive and now I am your younger daughter so this dress belongs to me...I will wear this dress" I said.

Maa: But beta...your mom has designed the lehenga for you... don't do like that... it's ok for me... but..

"Maa" I stopped maa by calling her..

"I didn't said that I won't wear that dress.." they looked puzzled.

"I will wear this lehenga on my reception..maa...so that you will be happy and will wear my mother designed on wedding. So that you will be happy & mom will be happy in heaven" I explained nd they all smiled at me.

I wiped my tears and hugged maa..this may not be an eye-catching lehenga but it's surely my maa blessings..I am not a fool to deny those blessings for my upcoming beautiful life with my Abhi...papa patted my back in appreciating my decision...papa hugged all of us and we sat on the bed recollecting our childhood memories...papa, maa, and bhai kissed me on my forehead and we talked about everything..

People say I am lucky....yes!! I am..not because I am rich but because I have a sweetest family no one ever had in the whole world...I love my family so much... thankyou mom and dad..you both gave me a life and a family who never left me and  always cherished me even after your death. All were adoring me like their own child...and I never felt like an orphan after my parents died instead they pampered me more nd loved me more than everyone in the house...I am so happy that God has blessed me by making me a member of this lovely family through my parents where only happiness appears on everyone's face...😊
