The Unexpected Guests
1124 Words
"It seems you have forgotten to invite us brother! " There was a commotion at the entrance of the backyard, as three very handsome and very beautiful people stood there.
Jwala had never seen anything rather anybody like them, well except Agni himself
There were 2 men and a lady with them
One had beautiful black hair, with streaks of electric blue in them, he was wearing an electric blue dhoti, and was adorned with pearls, he was also wearing a crown, made of the same shiny pearls. He had beautiful sea blue eyes, however they appeared to be cold
Agni's eyes were always burning, they seemed as if just his glare can burn you.
The other wore beautiful silver grey dhoti, he was adorned with diamonds, mymy he sure had royal tastes, He had beautiful pale platinum hair, which if someone observed closely was streaked with grey, he was however not wearing a crown, though his eyes were a pale grey color almost white , it seemed as if he had disdain for everyone and everything.
Agni's eyes always burnt with passion
The third of the party, was a very beautiful lady, too beautiful too be true, she had smooth golden skin, she was wearing a brilliant green Saree and was adorned with emeralds ,She had long hair which reached too her waist ,they were rich dark brown in color , while they were streaked with emberald , her eyes were the color of melted chocolate, they seemed as if she was always upto some mischief .
Agni's eyes --- Stop with it Jwala! What is wrong with you!?
Agni got up from his seat and again held Jwala's hand, what does he want now!? Jwala tried to shake off his grip, but he just tightened it
"Don't! " She heard the warning clear in his tone.
They walked hand in hand where their guests were waiting, or rather his guests were waiting.
All of them had such unique features, it was impossible that they were not related, however till now no one had ever heard about Maharaj Agni Barhi's relatives, let alone ones who were soo closely related to him.
Jwala could feel the tension in Agni's grip the more, nearer they went to welcome their unexpected guests.
"Brother it seems you have forgotten to invite us"
"Umm , I was invited " the lady piped up
Both the men turned simultaneously to look shocked at the lady, Jwala was presuming their sister.
"Congrats Brother! " she stepped forward and hugged Agni
and to Jwala's great surprise he, hugged her back albeit reluctantly.
"Umm congrats sister in law " the lady came towards Jwala and hugged her , this was the first time Jwala felt little conscious, the lady was absolutely radiating
"Thanks"Jwala awkwardly patted her back
"What are you doing here! ?" Agni asked, however it seemed it was directed more towards the brother in blue.
Before he could answer, the other guy stepped forward "Come now Agni, there is no reason to be hostile, we have come to congratulate you, why not make introductions? "
Before Agni could reply, the man in blue stepped forward and took Jwala's hand in his, did none of the brother's have manners!?
"I am Salil Neer, Maharaj of Hauz" he then bent down to kiss her hand
but before that, Agni snatched her hand from his "It does not seem he has come to congratulate us! " Agni seemed angry
"Of course I have, congrats brother and beautiful! "
"Sister in law! " Agni snarled
"Enough Agni don't start with it, do you really want your new bride to deal with this, few hours after your marriage" The platinum brother said
Atleast one of them was sensible!
"Hello, I am Vayu Sesha, Maharaj of Prana" he bowed
Jwala bowed back, he seemed the most sensible of the lot, nor very domineering.
"my turn! my turn!" the lady stepped forwards, she was clearly the youngest of the lot, all three brothers seemed to adore her
"I am Puhumi Basumati, Maharani of Vansundra" she said with a smile, it seemed only she knew how to smile, among the siblings
Jwala smiled back at her
She could feel Agni's eyes on her.
It was the first time Agni had seen Jwala smile , may be beacuse she had no reason to smile when she was in his company, well fine that was exactly how he wanted! He wanted Jwala to never smile! didn't he?
"Brother we know you are smitten with your wife, but she owes us dances " Maharaj Salil said
"She does not! "
"Do not be a spoil sport brother, its the family tradition " with that He extended his hand towards Jwala, it would be rude to turn down his offered hand, Jwala reluctantly placed her hand in his
He took her in the middle of the festivities, where all the people were dancing and singing
As they began dancing, Jwala could feel, two burning eyes of a very specific person on her, her husband
"Play along with me a little" She heard Salil whisper in her ears
Well it would serve that jerk right! Jwala nodded
He tightened his grip on her as they hopped and swirled to the music
"Does my brother treat you right? "
"From your silence it seems not! "
"He may appear like that, but seriously he is not that bad "
"Are you actually speaking up for him, it seemed you had intense dislike for him, you even wore your crown, on his lands"
"That was just to fluff him a little, it is not fun if we I do not instigate him a little, and everyone should have their fun"
Well it seemed both the brothers were not right in the head
"I am not crazy, against the popular belief, I am actually quite intelligent " he said sincerely
Great atleast there was one similiarity between the brothers, they both had very high opinions of themselves
Salil started laughing "You know your eyes are very expressive"
Jwala smiled, he was easy, easier than Agni atleast, Agni's intensity was too much to bare.
"you seem to be thinking about something or rather someone, I hope it is Agni he is not as bad, as he potrays himself "
"Oh please, you think he is that great, he is a jerk, he makes his ways by romping on others as he wishes, He doesn't even considers other people humans, he is soo full of himself, what he wants, what he desires that's all that matters, He is rude, he is arrogant, he is---"
"I think wife that is enough gloating of my qualities for today! "
Damnit!
