Akriti's pov
'Fuckk.....' I exclaimed as I again woke up late and Today all the close family members are coming to the house and I am late, dadisa is going to kill me.......
As I hurried down the stairs struggling with my dupatta I saw everyone was present there and were sitted in the living room. I looked at dadisa and she was glaring at me I just passes her an apologetic smile and bent down to touch the feet of the elders.
If you are wondering why everyone is here than .....You gotta prepare yourself because it's mu engagement tomorrow.
Tomorrow all male members of the family are going to visit Shekhawat's with gifts for Tilak ceremony and then in evening We are gonna have ring ceremony.
So the last few days have been hectic with all the preparations of wedding and engagement precisely. I am so tired but let's smile for the relatives.
As I sat with everyone talking about tomorrow's event there is a different feeling inside me about the new change, things are gonna be different now I will soon be married into a new household with new people and surroundings. I sighed, its gonna be difficult.........
With all the chaos in the house I wondered what bhai and papa would be thinking. I have not talked to them since the announcement because they were busy with all those preparations and with bhai being still upset with my decision its all so overwhelming.
They both have adored me with and showered me so much love since childhood much more after mumma death, there were ups and downs between us but they both are the most important mans of my life and I want them to be happiest at my wedding. I have to talk to them before tomorrow.
"Akriti" one of my aunt called me "Haa!" (Yes!) I replied. "The mehandi artist have arrived you should start applying it"
"Yeah" I replied
If there is something I am absolutely content with is applying mehandi. It's one of my favorite things.
I didn't realized that when it was evening, the day went so quickly. Just then bhai papa arrived back from office and I smiled widely seeing them. Papa came and sat beside me while bhai went to his room I guess he is still upset.
I felt papa caressing my head I turned to look at him "Tu khush to h na gudiya" ( You are happy right doll) he asked looking at me. I smiled and leaned to hug him and said "Bilkul...... Yeh dekho meri mehandi Kitni sundar h hna..." ( Absolutely......look at my mehandi its beautiful right)
"Ha bilkul meri gudiya jaise" ( Yes exactly like my doll) I smiled leaning against his warmth.
"Acha chl ab rest kr kl bhut Kaam h" ( OK now you rest there is so much for tomorrow)
I nodded and made my way to my room but stopped on the threshold of bhai's room hesitating to enter inside, dropping the idea of the conversation thinking he might be tired and went to my room.
Removing my heena and changing into my PJ'S I was ready for bed when someone knocked on the door. As I opened the door I was shocked seeing bhai standing there crossing his arms, pushing me aside he entered inside and sat on my bed.
He just sat there looking at me
"What" I asked
"Come here" he said patting the space beside him
I went and sat there and he suddenly slapped my head.
"Ky h" I asked frustrated (What)
"Tu itni badi ho gyi ki ab mere kamre me aane se phle bhi tuje sochna pade" (You have grown this much now that now you have to think before entering my room)
"It's not like that bhai, I just thought that you are tired after returning from office so I just didn't find it right to disturb you"
"Listen and listen to me very carefully, I am never busy and tired for you, if you want to talk Even at midnight you can"
"I know bhai..... but wait Aapko kaise pta me aapke kamre me aayi thi" ( How do you know I came to your room)
"Bada bhai hu tera sb pta h muje" ( I am your elder brother and I know everything)
We just sat there staring at the moon peeking from the window of my room when he asked
"Tu Sachme shadi krna chahti h" ( Do you really want to marry)
"Jee bhai, or isse phle aap kuch puche me khud kr rhi hu yeh sb kisi ka pressure nhi h mujpe, or shadi to krni hi thi or muje lgta papa or dadosa ne unhe Chuna h to sb soch ke hi chuna h"
( Yea brother, before you ask me anything I am doing all this on my own will no one is forcing me and someday I have to marry and if father and grandfather have chosen him then they have thought it through)
"Ha ha Chup kr gyan ki devi"( OK ok stop now wise goddess)
"Hey!......I am offended" I said to which he just laughed.
"Tu bs khush rh muje or kuch nhi chahiye"( I only want you to be happy nothing else)
"I am happy bhai" I replied
"Then it's sorted or vese bhi aacha h teri shadi ho rhi h ab muje pareshan to nhi kregi kam se kam"
(Well its nice that you are getting married in this way you will not irritate me) he said jokingly
"I will definitely do it, it's my birthright" I said to which he laughed and said "Now sleep tomorrow you are going to get engaged princess" he left after pecking my forehead.
Whereas I stared at the moon in front of me thinking what is going to happen tomorrow.
