Innocent Love

Chapter -12

Anisha

Today is Sunday. These 2 days moved too fast. I am feeling so nervous now.

As today the family is coming to see me for marriage. I said yes to grandfather but I felt so much at ease, nervous, scared and whatnot.. I only know how I am controlling myself to not cry. Because I don't know how things turned out.

What if he doesn't let me complete my studies? What if he also thinks of me as a burden to him? No, I can't think like that, I need to think positively. Or grandfather also asked me to talk freely to them. He said I could ask anything I wanted... from morning no one let me work anything. Grandfather stickily told me not to do anything. Mahi is the most excited person at home. She runs here and there like a bunny...she gets ready early and helps her aunt. Her grandfather is also happy. I am sitting in my room after getting ready in a red coloured Anarkali suit..it's my favourite. And Mahi said I looked pretty in this dress.

My hand was cold as ice because of sweating. Suddenly I heard horns..my heartbeat increased...

~~~~~~

The same hustle and bustle was going on in the Shekhawat mansion as today they were going to meet their daughter-in-law. The most exciting souls are Randhir Shekhawat and Namratha Shekhawat. They want to meet her as soon as possible.

In the early morning, Rajveer was sitting in his room doing some work on his Macbook. At the same time, he heard a knock on his door...

His mom went inside and shook her head in disbelief, seriously disbelief. Today, his son is engrossed in his office work. Like father, like son, they are both workaholics. How did my daughter-in-law survive with him?

"Mr Rajveer Singh Shekhawat stop your workaholic behaviour, " she said in a shout in a strange voice. Raj looked up at his mom and kept his Macbook aside.

She came near him and sat beside him...

"Raj, at least today keep your work away...you know I am so worried about my daughter-in-law..how will she survive with you"? She said and Raj just smiled at her and lay down, keeping his head on her lap.

"Mom, she has not come yet. And you just started behaving like a mother-in smile" he replied and smiled..his mom also smiled at his son's behaviour...

"Raj, beta, are you happy with this proposal... Bacha, don't think about my and my dad's happiness, we want our son's happiness.." Namratha said, as she was not sure if her son was happy or doing anything because of their happiness.

"Mom... I am happy, don't worry so much." He said and closed his eyes and relaxed in peace...

"Baccha, I want you to give this relationship a chance..and adopt a change in your life. You know this change will bring so much happiness and peace to your life. She will come into your life and lighten your life with her happiness, the same as you need to do to give time to her. I know your work is important, but beta, you have put effort into your relationship also.., in the relationship you some time you will find your happiness...." she said and make her son understand about new relationships in his life...

"I will mom, don't worry.." he said and assured his mother..

"Now get up and get ready.. we are getting late...come on" she said.

Then he got up and kissed her cheek...then moved to the washroom to get ready...Namratha also moved to get ready.

Rajveer came out and got ready in his white tshirt, black denim jeans and black blazer..he set his hair on a heel..and spread perfume, wore his Rolex..no doubt why girls go gaga on him. He has a different charm on his face...

He came done. His parents were already ready to leave. They were talking about something.

"Ohh my son is looking so handsome," his mom said while creasing his cheek and he just smiled.

"Let's move the people we have already left" Randhir bought them out...

They moved out and sat in the car. Rajveer took the driver's seat while his father was in the passenger seat and his mom in the backseat. The bodyguards are with them in 2 cars...because of their rivalry, they needed them...

As soon as they arrived, they got a warm welcome from Sharma... they moved. Arvind is also there with his family...

"Hello, Randhir " Arvind came forward to greet them as both families don't know each other...

"Hey Arvind", he also greeted him back..

"Come Randhir, bhabhi ji, I will introduce you to them. But first move inside..." as move into the living room...

grandfather Both Randhir and Namratha come forward and took blessings from him. manish was shocked because the number One businessman and so down to earth. Then Rajveer came forward and took blessings from him.

He blessed them with a warm smile.

"Namaste Randhir ji" he greet them.

"And they are Anisha's uncle and aunt. Mamta and Vikash." He introduced them both. They also greeted them. Rajveer touched their feet. Also, Manish is surprised by Rajveer's values....but one person that is also surprised was Vikash. As he never thought that his dad would bring Shekhwat's proposal to Anisha. He thought about threatening a boy's family and making Anisha married to Yash because of his profit, but now he couldn't argue with them. As they are more powerful than Mehra.

His thoughts were broken by laughing sounds...

"Arvind uncle, this is not fair. You did introduce me to my soon-to-be jiju. But it's OK, I will introduce myself." Mahi came forward to Rajveer as they were now sitting in the living room...

"My self Mahi Sharma. I am Anisha's sister " she said, and forwarded her hand to Rajveer.

"Hey, little beautiful girl. I am Rajveer singh Shekhwat. Nice to meet you." Rajveer said in a playful tone and everyone laughed at them....

"Thank you Manish ji for calling us here. We like your daughter.." Randhir said and broke the silence...

"Please don't make me feel awarded. We are lucky to have this proposal for our Anisha..and please Randhir ji call me uncle ." He said and removed the award needs between them.

"Ji uncle ji, but you also feel free to ask anything from us and, especially Rajveer Manish," Randhir said, and Manish nodded. Both the family started talking and asking families questions. Manish also talked with Raj and asked him some questions. And he found Rajveer a gentleman who would take care of his Anisha very well. He smiled with assurances assurance on his face. Now Anisha's life is beautiful.

Mamta served them tea and snacks. She mingles with Namratha easily. She is not bad in her heart, she is forced to do everything because of her husband..

As they were talking, Randhir asked for Anisha...Rajveer also looked at his father and thanked him in his mind because now he was also eager to meet her...

"Uncle ji, where is Anisha? Now we can't wait to meet her. Are we excited about meeting her??" Randhir said to Manish..who smiled and nodded at him, asking Mahi to bring Anisha down...

As the sound of anklets came, everyone looked up...Anisha was walking slowly with Mahii beside her. Her grandfather smiled and moved towards her to make her feel comfortable as he knew his princess was scared...he kissed her forehead to assure her...Randhir and Namratha smiled brightly while looking at them. No doubt she was more beautiful reality...and Rajveer, his condition is not different. He is staring at her without blinking his eyes. He has seen so many girls..but Anisha is different with innocent eyes. She was beautiful without make-up, just a red smile, making her more beautiful... he smiled doubled as now his doubts, were clear. He was going to marry Anisha anyway. He made up his mind about this innocent beauty. He was his only....he thought broken by his mom's voice... He got up and hugged Anisha as she touched his parents' feet.

Anisha was also surprised after seeing Randhir...

"Randhir, you are right...she is truly an angel..now I am so happy after meeting you, dear." Namratha said and made Anisha sit beside her.

Anisha had a strong gaze at her and she looked up and looked at Rajveer for the first time. She got to know he was the guy who she had gone to marry...she blushed and looked down as Rajveer was looking at her with emotional eyes which she did not hold herself... Her thoughts were broken by Namratha, who asked her something, and answered her politely. Shekhwat The family was mesmerized by her nature and voice. Rajveer is from time to time looking at her while answering between her chacha ji who is asking about some business topics...

"Uncle ji, I liked Anisha very much...if you don't mind, can Rajveer also talk to Anisha alone," Namratha said while looking at her son, who was eager to talk to Anisha...

"Yes...I don't have any problem. I am a very cool dadu, for my Anisha...Anisha baccha, please take Rajveer to your room..." he said. Suddenly Anisha felt so conscious of herself. But she nodded and got up.. Rajveer also got up with her...

"Come " she just whispered and moved forward. Rajveer is following her...

As they reached her room, Anisha moved inside. First Rajveer also came..he just closed the door.. while Anisha was shocked...

"Relax Anisha, I just closed it, not locked it, because I like privacy in some matters.. and this discussion is very important." He said softly... He was also surprised to be talked about his behaviour and talked with everyone softly other than his family.

"Please sit." She asked him.. He settled on him beside the bed and Anisha also sat nervously. Her hand was getting cold again...

"Nice room, Anisha, " he said.

"Thank you." She said while looking down. She is not too used to talking with strangers just...

"You look pretty Anisha" complimented her while she blushed hard, as,, the first time she had complimented her other than her family...

"So you are studying medicine " he asked. She just nodded...

"Look,, Anisha...I don't want to scare you, but feel free to ask anything you know you know this is very important for our future...I know you are nervous but you can ask me anything..I will not say anything."Rajveer said,, making her feel comfortable because he knows she is nervous and scared to talk...

"Can I ask your name.." she said slowly and Rajveer first looked shocked then laughed loudly...

"You don't know my name..??" He asked in surprise...she just nodded at no..

"Ok, no problem. I will introduce myself.... my name is Rajveer Singh Shekhawat..I handle my family business..I am CEO.." he said and Anisha My little...

"Anything you want to ask " he asked her, while she just nodded no. First, then yes. Than no...

"Can I ask one more thing? " she asked him and he smiled at her innocent nature...

"You can ask anything," he said with a smile.

"Can I continue my studies....as it is my parents' dream that I will become a doctor.."she asked her doubt...while playing with fingers and looking down...

Rajveer looked at her.. as he knew she was very nervous. He slowly took her hand in his big rough hand. He felt her hand cold as ice.

"Anisha relax....cool." he says. First she settled with his move.

"Anisha, you don't need to ask my permission or any one's permission for your studies.. it is your right to complete your dream and I will always support you no matter what.." he said and made her understand. Anisha relaxed after listening to him...while Rajveer was still holding her hand ...

"This is your parents' photo..." he asked her and looked at the photo which was placed on the table beside the bed..

"Ji" she whispered, Raj looked at her, who was looking at her parents' photo with so much love...

"No doubt you are there princess...right" he asked. She nodded at him.

"Anisha, are you ready for this marriage...I mean there is no pressure on you... If anyone is forced, you can tell me. I will handle it in my way" he asked, as a gentleman, because he didn't want to pressure her...

Anisha is shocked by his concern. As he is thinking about her comfort.

"No, grandfather already said that I can tell him if I don't like boys". She was innocent and smirks came on her face..

"Oh so you like me or not..? " he asked her with a smirk on his face..while Anisha looked at him shocked....

"Come on tell,..what will you answer grandfather," he teased her again...before he could tease her more, there was a knock on the door. They got up. Anisha removed her hand.. and blushed..

"Times up dii", Mahi came to call them.

"Sorry but everyone is asking about you both.. I have come to call you" she said with a smile.

Rajveer smiled at her. They both moved down...while Anisha looked at her parents' photo once again and blushed hard, looking down..
