Bewitched

Chapter 20

Srusti's POV

I went to my room with all the dresses. They all were so beautiful. I had not worn such beautiful clothes since my parents died. Firstly I didn't feel like as I was mourning and then I didn't as I was working in the kitchen most of the time.

My dresses were still at my sister's house. Mohit got too many dresses. He didn't have too. But he said it was necessary.

He said that he loves Manu and she is married. Is that the reason that he doesn't want to get married ?? Because he can't get married to Manu??

Maybe... That explains everything.

I got ready within 20 minutes. I had some pieces of jewellery which belonged to me. So I wore them along with the white dress.

I left my long hair open they were naturally wavy. Applied very light make as I was not very fond of makeup. Finally, I took out the only pair of shoes I had right now from my bag. The only other pair was the sneakers I was wearing when I left my sister's home.

Thankfully it matched the dress.
As it is I had no other option.

I looked at myself in the mirror one last time and went out where he was waiting for me, looking into his phone.

I cleared my throat to say something but he looked up at me and got up immediately with his mouth a bit open.

" Wow !! You are looking beautiful. " He smiled at me and nodded.

" Thanks... "

" Let's go, they must be waiting for us. " He said and we both went out.

He made me sit in the passenger seat of his car and then we drove to the hospital. Mohit called Maya to ask where she was. She told him that they have been shifted to a room as their condition was better.

We were standing outside a private ward and he took a deep breath.

" Are you ready?? " He asked me.

" As ready as I could ever be. But I am nervous. " I replied.

" I am nervous too... But we have to do it. " He said looking into my eyes and I nodded.

" Remember we are in love. So behave like that. " He said I nodded looking away.

He knocked at a room. A smart and beautiful woman opened the door. She smiled at both of us.

" Hi, I am Maya, his elder sister. Come, we were waiting for you." She said and hugged me warmly. I liked her instantly and smiled at her.

" Wow, Mohit !! She is beautiful... " She said and Mohit smiled and then all of a sudden he snaked his arm around my waist and pulled me to him.

My breath was caught in my chest. But I didn't react. He smiled like a young boy.

" Leave her, you moron. You kept her hidden from us, now let her meet us."
She scolded him and caught my hand and pulled me towards an old but elegant lady sleeping on the bed.

" Daadi is here?? Wow!! What about mom?? "

" Daadi is better since the good news. So they shifted her here about an hour ago. They took mom for a few tests and if they are fine, she will discharge her in a day or two. " Maya said and Mohit took a deep breath and smiled. He caught my free hand and we went towards the bed.

" She was very excited to meet you but just slept. Let me wake her up. " She said.

" Oh no, di... Let her rest. How is she now?? "

" She is better since I told her that this idiot was coming with someone he loves to meet all of us. I have to wake her up or she would be angry That why I didn't wake her. "
