A vow to win you

CHAPTER 25

''Zaara said she wont come for the reception.'' Arjun says dejectedly to Abeer.

''Yeahh ... I knew that''Abeer was totally unaffected by it as already knew what was going to happen.

''I thought she would come if I call her'' 

''Arjun how do you expect her to come after knowing who we are? .... Why the hell are you sooo dum!'' Abeer asked in genuine surprise.

''I was hoping she could at least  come.....as my colleague....oh by the way she also said she wont be continuing her job...uncle is not allowing her it seems'' Arjun said wearing his tuxedo.

''That little old man.....I swear to god!.. he is annoying  me lot!...I am gonna lock him up someday and half of my problems are gonna get solved .. Believe me!'' Abeer says while combing his hair

''ABEER!....come on...he is our uncle for god's sake!''

''OHH PLEAASE!...He is the Amrish Puri(Villain) of my love story''

''Beta ...have you all got ready?''Abeer and Arjun's mom enter the room.

''yeahh mom almost!'' Arjun while spraying cologne.

''Quick! Akanksha is all ready and the guests have arrived... Dont delay!...And Abeer''

''yes mom!''

''I need your help ...come out a minute'' saying this Abeer's mom goes out.

''Alright gotta go ...''Abeer says closing the door.

''Come soon...Dumbass'' Arjun screams from inside the room.

''Fuck off!''Abeer screams from outside and turns to see some aunties stare at him with judgy eyes.

ohh god not again!

''Namaste!''Abeer greets the aunty. ''Apko bhi Namaste!'' He greets the other aunty standing next to her and politely leaves from there and spots his mom and goes to her.

''Haan  Abeer!  We totally forgot to get the firecrackers...and all our helpers are busy in the reception ... Go get good quality firecrackers and come back soon!".

''yeahh i'll get them'' Abeer says and leaves to get them.

seeing Abeer getting out of the venue Tushar follows him.

''Where are you going leaving your brother's reception?'' Tushar asks when while Abeer sits in his car.

''we forgot to get firecrackers...Imma go and get them''Abeer says wearing his belt.

''I'll get them Abeer , you stay here!'' 

''NO , Its very crowded here ...I want to be alone right now'' 

''Alright but if you don't come soon....I will come searching for you'' Tushar says as he knew Abeer was not in a good place mentally.

''I'll text you if it gets late''. saying this abeer drives off.

On his way Abeer sees a bustling area.

maybe I might find some shop that sells fireworks over there.

Abeer drives further and sees a soooo many people getting inside a  temple.

''must be some function'' Abeer says and gets out of his car to see.

He peeps inside the temple and it was very beautifully decorated.

''DAMMM!.. looks great .... What could the occasion today'' Abeer thinks as today was  just some normal day.

'' I have to get fireworks! '' Abeer reminds himself as he was getting very distracted. Just then he sees Zaara and her father coming in a scooter.

''Okayyy ...WHAATT?'' Abeer rubs his eyes as he couldn't believe his eyes and looks on but they were still there.

''Alright, this is clearly not a dream!'' Abeer says and gets out of his car.

What are they doing here though! Abeer looks at Zaara and her dad park their scooter just a few vehicles away from him but they fail to notice him.

Abeer could see them very clearly now. He notices Zaara begging her father for something and her father just shaking his head left and right saying a big no.

''Please Please Please!'' Abeer heard Zaara's shrill voice to which Zaara dad again signs no but Zaara proceeds to run holding her lehenga.

''ZAARAAAAA!'' Abeer heard his uncle scream to which Zaara signs bye and runs into the temple. He couldnt help but smile at what Zaara was doing.

''WOWW! my girl's a rebel too!....ofcourse why wont she be!...she is my stubborn uncle's daughter'' Abeer sighs . He sees Zaara's father enter some hotel.

''UHMM WELL!... looks like uncle will take some time to come out!...and the fireworks can wait!'' 

Abeer grins and enters the temple. He sees  Zaara running to shrine that is a little far, She turns to see if  her father is coming to stop her, but after she sees her father is not coming to stop her she starts to quietly walk to the shrine. 

''WOOOOOWWWWWW''zaara  let out her breath seeing idol of Radhakrishna and Abeer comes and stands quietly behind her.

''DIDI....is it some special day today?'' Zaara asks the lady standing next to her and abeer quietly listens to their conversation.

''Noo dear! some family donated a hefty amount to the temple and feeding soo many poor people today bcoz of some occasion in their family''

that sounds suspicious..zaara thinks

ohhh i know who did all this....abeer  understood who the family was.

''which family?'' Zaara asked hoping not to hear whats on her mind.

''Some rajput family'' The lady said continuing to pray.

As the words reached her ears Zaara quickly turned to leave as soon as possible but bumped into the person standing behind her, without even looking up Zaara murmurs sorry and walks fast.

''Waittt!'' Abeer holds her hand.

''ohhh my god its you again!.....I knew it you would be somewhere around here''Zaara says in dissappointment.

''AWW...REALLY?'' Abeer asks excitedly ''you were thinking about me?'' to which Zaara rolls her eyes

''Abeer please!....my dad is somewhere nearby...he sees me with you, it will become a big problem''

''He wont see us ....Now come with me''Abeer holds her wrist and proceeds to walk.

ohhh my god!...where is he taking me?....''where are we going?'' Zaara asks with fear visible in her voice but tries to assertive.

''what would you do if I say we are going home''Abeer asks wanting to see her reaction to which Zaara looks at him disbelief.

''look at your eyes...they look as if they will pop out anytime'' abeer chuckled and took her to his car.

''get in!''abeer says opening the front door to which Zaara nods her head signing no.

'' just 10mins and I will let you go''...
