Shades Of Happiness

Chapter 6

Samrita's POV :

Days were running. After the meeting I and Vinay didn't talk. And then he called me once. He said that his uncle and aunty wanted to meet me. He sent an empty car with a driver to take me from the apartment to his home. I went met his uncle and aunty. To be honest, they were so nice to me. I was forced to have lunch at their home. And then i came back home.

All i worry about, for now is i have to leave Anjana alone and go to that bungalow. Yes, that isn't a house, it is a bungalow. For me, being a lower-middle class girl, it is a bungalow!!

I myself can notice the changes in me. I stopped talking to everyone. I started to be silent. Not even with Anjana, i talked more. And she started worrying about me. And on that evening when she came back from her work, "Sam, what happened to you?! Why are you like this?! I have been with you since 20 years, and i have never seen you like this Sam. You have changed a lot, i can understand. Things that are happening in our lives change us, but still being worried all the time can never change our life. Keep smiling and stay happy, atleast you will get some positive energy. I miss the old you Sam.. My Happiness includes yours too. Stay happy and cheerful. After all life goes on. "

" I know Anju. I seriously have no idea why am i behaving like this. I am just alive,not living. I know that you will be happy only if i am. I am seriously worried that i have to leave you alone here, just to help that stone-hearted guy. I can't stop myself from accepting the deal. I have become greedy, though I knew that he is just using me for his welfare and this is purely a deal. I miss the old we Anju. I miss the old we. " as i said i started crying. I have never been this much emotional to her. I hugged her, she hugged me back.

" Whatever happens stay happy. Though i can't take your sorrow away from you, i promise i can at least be with you during hard times. " she said and wiped my tears away.

Only this girl can do this. Only she can give me so much energy. Samrita is now loaded with full of positive energy and happiness. These miracles happen only with Anju. I love the she soothes me. And i love her. Her awesomeness makes me stay fresh.

"I know Anju, always you would do that. And now i am totally okay. All because of the great one and only Anjana. " i said with a big smile.

" Happy to see this smile, wish it stays forever. " she said.

I too hope so. But when i am going to live with a man who just want a girl fot a deal, how can i be happy?! Okay, i am promising myself whatever happens, i have to stay happy. I shouldn't be like this. I took a long breathe.

Usually i had heard people saying that time in between the engagement and wedding are the most beautiful days of a girl's life but i swear these are the worst days of my life. I can't even think back. Everything had happened just like that and today i am standing here near by Mr. VINAY KRISHNA at the register office. I wore a magenta saree and matching blouse. Actually i didn't want to wear a saree but when i got ready in a salwar, Anju forced me to wear a saree, after all it's just a deal.

There, we both exchanged our garlands and signed in the registration note book. As soon as we signed everyone clapped their hands including Anjana, Vijay, kritika, his aunty and uncle and few more. And the registration got over. Okay!! Samrita. It's over. Now it's you and an arrogant man.

Vinay's POV :

It's THE MORNING. Yes, the day we had our wedding was today. Atlast we all reached the register office. She was waiting there. And she was like an angel. We went towards her. Please stop admiring her Vinay, this is going to be a deal, mind it.

We went towards her. Samrita and her friend Anjana were waiting. As soon as went, I and samrita exchanged garlands. It is our tradition. Actually there are lot more traditions. As we were just going to sign in a deal, traditions were actually unnecessary. I signed and then she signed. After that we had to go home. We all drove back home.

Samrita's POV :

The registration got over and now i am ought to go to the bungalow with them. I hugged Anjana tightly, she hugged back and she kissed me on my forehead with happy tears. I cried too, but those were definitely not happy tears. I had to board the car in another ten minutes as they all forced me to do so. I and Vinay in one separate car. Wtf?! Why did they planned so? Why should i go with him all alone. Of course, if i had got a chance of sitting with him alone on the day of interview, i would have been seriously happy. Because that impression in me about him was totally different but then he spoiled it himself.

We both didn't even exchange a word till we reached his home. Once we reached home, uncle and aunty talked to me for some time and then they went into their respective rooms. I was actually astonished by seeing that bungalow and i was just seeing it thoroughly how it was, because on that when i came for lunch to this house i didn't actually notice how it was!!

And then i wanted to change my dress but i had no idea about which was my room. And kritika came out from her room, and i decided to ask her.

"Excuse me, Ms. Kritika. " i called her

" Yes.. But uhmm.. How should i call you as?! " she asked with a hesitation.

" You can call me Samrita or Sam. " i said with a wide smile.

"Okay Sam, you can also call me as Kriti or kritika. Okay? " she said.

" Okay, kritika. I just want to go to my room. I don't know which one is mine. " i said.

" What are you talking? When you are married to Vinay, obviously his room is yours. Come i will take you to his room ".

Omg!! I thought that Mr. Vinay would arrange a separate room for me but here i have to stay with him in one room. But yeah, we have to pretend to be husband and wife.

" Okay come let's go ". I said and followed her.
