I think my brain stopped functioning. Why i am not getting any idea to stop this marriage? 

I made a group call to sne and jaanu. They picked after 5 th ring.

"Macchies please give me an idea . Iam unable to sleep."i literally  begged them. 

"U called us in this hour to talk about this . I never thought i will be facing this , not even in my dream."said jaanu

"She will let us sleep only when she get  solution .,So better we give her idea." said sne. She knows me well .....

"Ok, tell them u have a boyfriend ."said jaanu.

"Everyone knows that i did my schooling in girl's school, puc in girl's college and engineering in girl's college. "my parent's are overprotective they never allowed me to talk with boys . It doesn't mean they don't believe me,they do belive me but they don't believe others, that is how my family is.

I am not in f*******:, twitter, i********: . I have w******p account in my father's mobile.

Great, right.

"Tell them u r lesbian." said sne

"What!!!!!!!!!"jaanu and me shouted at the same time. Just thitnking about that making to puke. wait don't get it wrong , I'm straight.

"U better sleep.... i will find on my own"with that i ended call not before wishing them devil dreamzzzz

It was already 3 in the morning,i could not sleep a wink, so thought of dancing a bit.

I plugged my earphone into my mobile and played dilbar songs and started dancing.

I danced till my knees go weak and laid on floor"if i had elder brother he might have tried to stop this marriage" with that thought i marched towards my bed and slept.

"Wake up chandu,beautician has come . Get up , we have lot left to do..chandu" my mom shouting near my ear . Why can't they let me sleep peacefully.

I opened my eyes and walked to washroom like zombie . My friends are right i am looking like a zombie ....

Well, Its good so that whoever coming to see me will run away if they see me like this, thinking all stupid possibility to stop my marriage i stepped out of my room to be greeted by scream. why are they screaming..

Beautician1 said"mam don't tell me ,she is the bride"  she said pointing towards me. What is wrong with me "everything is wrong.....dull skin,dark circle,chapped lips...." she went on explain how i am looking right now. Well ,i slept at 4am.

Thanks to my parents.

They started their work . Plucking my eyebrows, waxing my hands and legs and also did golden facial.

Oh god save me from this monsters....

Finally i am done with makeup , they draped golden and black combination with red border silk saree around me and adorned  with jewellery.

Finally i am all ready . 

Its just a small ceremony but why should i wear all this.

ok let's ask mom later.

I am neither happy nor sad....i feel neutral. I heard a knock and the door opened ,there my papa smiling brightly looking at me. I too smiled. I patted the place next to me indicating to come and sit.

"Chandu i know u don't want to marry now, but i want to see my daughter wedding,this is my last wish.I don't have to tell u this , you are mature and you understand everything . He is the perfect guy for you ,i promise u they will take care of you like princess . If not you dont have to worry , you have two bro to teach them lesson."i smilled.

That is true , even they are overprotective.

"Vishnu, you are here ,groom side has come . Come fast we should welcome them."said my mom and dragged my papa out .

I'm confused now . What should i do ? But i dreamt of aspiring as application developer one day  Listen to my papa , i don't want to hurt him. Then, what about my dream? I don't know how my future in law will be.  I cannot demand it from me. It would be too much, at the same time i want to achieve my goal. 

My papa trust me the same way i trust him. I cannot hurt him by saying no. I have to do something.

I was siting on my bed thinking about my life. Then my brother barged into my room and said" who let this decorated monkey into my sister's room. Hey!! monkey ,where is my sister. Do you know how to talk ?" he never leave a chance to tease me.  I snorted at him.

I  got plan to mute him. I smirked evily. Looking at my smirk, he got nervous but covered with straight face .....smarty asss...

I asked "where is my snickers.  Don't tell me u didn't buy one?"i glared at him. He took out my chocolate and handed to me .

Damn him. oh god what next ? How to get my revenge for calling me decorated monkey? I was thinking my mom came to my room and started scolding my bro " i sent you to bring her ,not to feed her chocolate."i was doing happy dance in my mind.

Mission accomplished.. I sticked my tounge out and said seriously

"Mom he was giving me idea how to elope " 

"By giving snikers "said my smarty ass,but who is he kidding.

"Mom he said he wrote some ideas inside this so that no one could findout" said showing chocolate.

"Stop ur drama . Shrey and chandu come to living room fast"said mom and started to kitchen . Now its his turn. He sticked his tongue out and did a happy dance. I got angry and kicked his buttocks. we heard mom shouting names ..

"Come my drama queen , i am here to escort you to living room"said and started dragging me to living room.

"Is this how you escort queen" i said.

"Correction drama queen "he said  cause me to roll my eyes involuntarily.  He took me to living room and moved aside to be met with 18 pair of eye. I stood rooted not knowing what to do.

"Chandu come here and sit "my papa broke the silence. i went and sat next to him.

He started introducing groom side. Mohan uncle, raj uncle,latha aunty,anusha aunty, karthik,rithik and finally my so called future husband sidharth .

Wow....freaking handsome,hot,sexy, perfect . This is all i could say.

His sharp jaw and his biceps are making me go crazy.

His dark brown eyes making my knees go weak, Then i got to know

even he was  staring at me .....way to embarrass myself....stupid chandu...did i get caught ....i don't think so...looking at his expression i can tell that he didn't notice me ogling at him.....thank god.......  turned to other side  latha aunty to see her smiling lovingly at me....i too smiled at her and started fidgeting my fingers.....

"Hi ,I'm karthik ...I'm raj uncle son "introduced himself and sat next to my right .

"Hi, I'm rithik ,his brother" said rithik and to my left, i smiled at both of them.

"Excuse me can u move we have something to talk with my sister "said shrey glaring at karthik and rithik pointing skanda .

Karthik and rithik saw eachother not understanding anything. Shrey moved karthik aside and sat, while skanda moved rithik aside and sat .

I couldn't contol anymore and started laughing holding my stomach.

"Overprotective jackass" i mumbled and composed myself.

I turned towards shrey and said " its ok they are here to talk to me and i am comfortable with them take skanda  with you." they nodded and glared at them and sat opposite to us.

I apologized karthik and rithik for their stupid behaviour and told them how protective they are . At first they were shocked hearing and later laughed for their protectiveness.

"Even i want to protect you that way. will u be my little sister " asked karthik .

"Yes ,same here" heard rithik .

Both were waiting for my answer.

I nodded my head repeatedly  said" I used to fantasize for elder brother "they visibly relaxed hearing my words.

"From today on words I'm ur elder brother and u can ask me anything . If sid hurt you tell me i know how to teach him lesson . I have my ways to teach him lesson ."he said and put his arm around my shoulder.

"Even i am ur elder brother , u can come to me if u r bored and want some fun. Even if these two didn't hurt you." i smiled at them and rithik put his arm around my shoulder.

I heard someone clearing their throat  and saw sidarth glaring at trio.

What is wrong with him?weirdo. 

I didn't care about him and continued talking with them.

"I want to talk with chandana privately." i heard sidarth asking papa staring at me. 

"Take him to gardan chandu"said papa. I  nodded and got up from my seat and started to garden and from peripheral vision i could see him following me.

We both sat on chair opposite to each other, silent consumed us.

Sidarth's pov:

I am in car right now heading towards mysore. Me, dad , mom in one car. Raj uncle, aunt, karthik, rithik in another car. We all live in bangalore just 10 km away.

All i could think is the girl i saw in signal. Her big eyes...her beautiful smile..her long hair....god what is wrong with ?  I am  going to meet my soon to be, but i am thinking about another girl. Great sidarth .

We reached their house it is quite big not than our's.....quite old.....

Someone who is same age of my dad came and invited us inside.

We were sitting in living room. we heard bickering,i turned towards the source and saw my girl stood there wearing goldenish  black color saree  with minimal makeup and adored with jewellery . 

My eyes got stuck to her. She looked stunning in saree. I had difficult to take my eyes from her. Her name suit her ' Beautiful' . 

When she turned towards us she was shocked and stood like statue. Her big eyes said she is nervous. Her papa called her and they both sat together .

 Her papa was introducing everyone she was greeting everyone smiling sweetly . Her smile is contagious i feel my lips curving upwards.....contro sid.

Don't make fool of yourself.  I composed and put a straight face, then vishnu uncle introduced me .

 From her look i can tell that she liked what she is seeing. Who can resist me? I smirked internally. But she did not pass a smile at me. My ego busted just at that.

Later karthik and rithik sat beside her and started talking . All the while she was smiling. 

This hurt my ego badly. Fom when did her smile mattered  to you my side mocked me. I  heard music ...so pleasant....so angelic......i saw chandana laughing clutching her stomach looking at my brother....and they both put their arm around her shoulder....that's it i can't take it anymore.....i got angry and cleared my throat to gain her attention i suceeded ...i glared at her when she saw me and continued talking to them ....how dare...so asked vishnu uncle to talk with her privately so that i can have all her attention to me ...only me ....possessive much ,are we ?i smirked mentally ...and we started to garden.......
