(Shivaay's pov)

"Oh my maata, Shivaay today also works! Close it right now." Mom started scolding me like a 5 year old kid.

"Mom, I have important conference to attend, once I'm done I'll close it. Okay?"

"No..not okay, it's your engagement in few hours and I want my son to take rest and look fresh for the function." Mom grabbed my phone & laptop.

"Mom, that's not fair!"

"Shutups & take this"..she passed a bowl with brown color paste in it.

"What is this & if think I'll put this on my face then no..!" I pushed the bowl back in her hands.

"Shivaay it's Multani Mitti, good for skin and it will make your face glow ."

"Mom, I'm not a bride here so please don't try your garelu nuska on me!"

"Tu na meri baat nahi manega lagta hai, I have to tell mummyji!" She turned around.

"Don't tell Dadi, I'll apply it. Happy?"

"Very! Haye mera baccha." She walked out. I sighed looking at the bowl, how easily they can manipulate me to do things on name of Dadi.

"Bhaiya.." Rudra rushed inside engulfing me into a hug followed by Om.

"What happened Rudy?" I asked as he tightened the hug , I looked at Om to which he just shrugged.

"Bhaiya, you are becoming dhan paraya"

"Huh?"

"He means paraya dhan." Om corrected.

"Now your most of the time will be occupied by Bhabhi, then what about us?"

"Rudy, I made him sit beside me, that's not gonna happen okay. Yes, I agree with Anika entering in my life there are gonna be many changes, my life, my time, my room, she is gonna have rights on everything but she knows what you guys are for me, she cherishes our bond, she understands how important you both are for me and she will not do anything like such to keep you both away from me. Trust her, and trust your brother ."

"Yes Rudy, Shivaay is right. Stop worrying so much and it's just engagement today, mairrage has a month to go!" Om tried to cheer him up.

"Bhaiya what's this?" Rudra grabbed the bowl looking keenly at the paste.

" Mitti!"

"Eww, you are gonna apply soil on your face. Shiii, " Rudra started making faces.

"Stop over-reacting Rudra, it's Multani Mitti mixed with Rose water." Om answered.

"I have to apply it, mom's order!"

"You'll look like a ghost bhaiya..hahaa.." He started laughing. I took a good amount of paste and rubbed it on his face making him shock.

"Bhaiya..you are gone.." He rushed towards me, while I rushed away. We didn't even knew that fifteen minutes passed until our hands and face were all covered in Mitti. " We laughed hugging each other.

...

I looked at myself in the mirror while buttoning up the suit. I must say, Anika's taste & style in clothes is good. Why not, she is a fashion designer after all. My inner self mocked. Atleast one thing we have in common.
But that girl has a lot attitude, jab dekho tab.. what's in her language..yes, 'tadi' marti hai. She calls me tadibaaz, but she is number one tadibaaz, huh!
One thing I'm glad about is she doesn't make any efforts to impress me neither she needs too. Because you're already impressed! Yes, I am. Without any help of her brother, father or her family name she built the brand 'Arnika Fashion House' and is one of the leading designer in the world.
Anyways, this marriage is just a name-sake. We are doing this for our family's happiness and nothing else.

"Bhaiya, kya lag rahe ho. I must say Anika bhabhi's choice is superb." Rudra complimented.

"Shivaay everyone is waiting downstairs. Let's go." I nodded and we walked out of my room.

"Haye, Mera Billu Kitna sona lag raha hai!" Dadi did my balaye & hugged me.

"Khanna everything set?"

"Yes sir, I've doubled the security. Everything is under control sir."

"Good. " I stopped feeling a gentle breeze, I turned around and looked at the door. There stood her, looking enchanting, I gazed her from top to bottom, we both had coordinated. As if feeling my gaze, she looked up making an eye contact and quickly looked down feeling shy.

I smirked mentally, seeing my effect on her. Our family welcomed them while she walked & stood beside me.

"You look go..good!" Her expression showed disbelief. I cursed my inner self for complementing with wrong word.

"You too!" I nodded. I looked around seeing minimum number of guest. We had decided to celebrate engagement within small circle while mairrage at big level.

"Shivaay, Anika beta go sit on the stage. It's muhurat time." Mom said before walking away.

I climbed the small stairs first and turned around forwarding my hand to her.

"Thank you" she mumbled taking my hands. We made ourselves comfortable making sure to leave good distance in between.

"Chalo sab, muhurat ho gaya hai." Dadi announced. Badi maa & Sarika maa climbed up carrying rings. Badi maa passed me the ring while Sarika maa passed one to Anika.

"Anika beta , make him wear the ring!" I forwarded my hand and she slid ring into my finger. I did the same . Claps and hoots were heard around. We were showered with flowers.

Rudra, Om and Arnav asked DJ to play the song and they started dancing. Soon they were joined by family members. Happiness rushed down my veins seeing their smiley faces. I looked at Anika who was already looking at me. We both smiled knowing we were thinking the same.

"Shivaay bhaiya, bhabhi, come on let's dance ." Rudra walked up.

"No Rudy you guys go ahead and enjoy." Rudra pulled Anika with him while I sat there enjoying watching them.

My phone vibrated gaining my attention.
I walked down the stage, leaving the hall to attend the call .

As I walked back, my eyes caught something making me root at my place.

.... Screen stopped.
