Aadhya Rehan

Chapter Twenty Six

Aadhya Malhotra

"Will you have a problem if I remove this"

I looked at Rehan, he pointed me the engagement ring. He really have irritation with it. And I don't mind if he doesn't want to wear it, because every minute he's removing the ring to scratch his finger.

I shook my head. "You remove it after reception, my family--"

He started to remove the ring but suddenly stopped to look at me. "I'll wear it for reception. Thank you" He kept the ring in his pocket and opened the wardrobe's shelf taking a small box out.

He opened it for me. It was a watch. "Your brother gave this to me, you didn't know?" He looked puzzled seeing my reaction.

I nodded no. I remember bhai giving Jiju a watch after Di's wedding and I forgot that he must be giving something to Rehan. Wait, did Bhai also gave his brother words to Rehan.

"Did he gave those brother warnings to you?"

Rehan gave me a shy smile, rubbing his neck. He kept the watch on the dressing table still not removing the smile.

"It's a secret talk, won't reveal anything"

"Why is everyone like this, Jiju also never told Di what happened. Did Bhai said "I'll kick your ass if you hurt my sister"" I asked and Rehan raised his eyebrows.

"You can imagine what and all you want but no, I won't tell"

I was about to protest when a knock came on door. I opened the door, Anu was standing with my phone.

She forwarded me the mobile "Yesterday I told Sanjay to give it you, but he forgot and I'm going Aadhya, let's meet at the hotel"

Something's wrong!

She gave me a smile and a glare to Rehan. I didn't even got to ask her the reason, she actually ran away. After she went I looked at him. "Earlier she told me, she'll be coming with us to the hotel and now she's going! Is she not well"

I switched my phone on and it showed low battery. I took Rehan's charger and plugged it in.

"Couple fight, maybe" Rehan said after a moment.

"How do yo-- hey you have a hand in it right, I saw she glaring at you"

Rehan nodded at me.

"Before Sanjay and Anu got together he had an affair and she was in our class too and I was the one who set them up and yesterday she messaged Sanjay and I guess now Anu knows about it and they'd fight. Whenever this ex thing pops up, she'll kill me with her glares, saying I'm the one who started it. But don't worry it'll be fine by tomorrow"

Rehan took his tshirt off with one hand and is it wrong to stare my husband's body. I was intently looking at him and I didn't knew when he took the water from the nearby jug to sprinkle on my face.

"It's rude to stare"

I blushed and I didn't reply, focusing on the bedsheet. He laughed taking the towel from wardrobe. He stopped on his tracks and came near me.

"Will you have a problem if I text my ex" He really wanted to know the answer and I folded my arms to my chest and looked at him.

I really spoke what my heart said. "Don't think I'm crazy but I'm a typical wife in this matter. I'm really possessive about my things, especially my husband, so I don't think I'm ready nor I will be ever ready to share him, no matter what. You're mine means mine"

He opened his mouth wide shocked at my answer. Yes, I won't share my husband.

I felt to laugh seeing him but I'm damn series. "Also if someone gave you these glances even after knowing you're married, trust me I won't mind using this"

I showed him my hand and he was totally amazed by my answer.

I felt a deep gaze in me, I looked at the door to see Kavya. Rehan followed my gaze and she left immediately, embarassed.

"Could this get any better!"

"Please don't put many pins, it really hurts" I said seeing Tara taking out the Bobby pins from its box. The girls were helping me to get ready, led by Tara.

Reception was supposed to be at 8 and it's half past six and everyone has started to get ready. Daadi also gave me a necklace, which I will be wearing with this lehenga.

There was a knock on the door and Arya opened the door for Rehan to enter. "I'm looking for something, I'll leave after that"

He said before the girls could protest. He took shower before me but he wasn't ready till now. Liya had kicked him out after giving him his dress.

"What are you searching for" I asked. He was looking at the floor intently then the bed and the wardrobe.

"Before Anu came what were we talking out" He reached near me. I could see sweat on his forehead. Something big was missing.

"Uhm..Bhai?" I said and he nodded no.

He started looking again for something he lost. "Yes before that what did I do"

What did he do actually? Removed his shirt, no Aadhya. He did after that. Shoo don't think about that.

"The ring!?" I asked and he immediately closed his eyes in shame. Did he lose that?

"Did you--"

"No, it'll be here somewhere. I forgot where I put" He ruffled his hands through his hairs.

"Did you check your pocket"

He drove his hands to his pocket and smiled sheepishly at me. He took the ring out, his ears turned pink. "I was testing you, actually"

"Oh my god, that was a test. Congratulations bhai you won and bhabhi very bad you lost" Liya mocked Rehan and he went from there, basically he ran.

~

"How many girlfriends you had?" My out of blue question made Rehan to choke. I forwarded him the water and he drank it in one sip.

We were having dinner, the reception was in its last stage. Some guests were singing songs and we both are having food in corner.

"Do I want to dig my grave"

"Oh come on, I'm not that type of wife who feels jealous about her husband's previous relationships. It was all in the past, I just want to hear it" I showed him my best puppy face and he nodded.

"I had two. One in school and one in college. The one in college broke soon after I heard mom's pregnant. I couldn't focus on anything. Mom being pregnant at that time had given me many positive feelings. I'll talk about it later, then the college one, she was my one year junior and there was this Christmas vacation and I saw her ignoring my calls and all, after reopening I saw her with this guy from her class and it ended that way, never confronted her"

Oohoo.

"What was their names"

"Seriously, are you even my wife. You're like any college girl interested in knowing about a guys previous relationships"

"Pleaseee"

"Gouri and Nithya. Now you tell me, you had any relationships"

"Nope, I'm neat"

"Glad to know" He had a happy smile on his face, relieved by my answer.

"I thought you were married early because your parents caught you having an affair" A sound spoke, behind me.

WHAT!!
