Shehnaaz POV 

Maa opened the gate excitedly and immediately embraced di in a motherly hug and then her nanad whose name and face I did not know yet as Neetu di immediately hugged me. I smiled blissfully feeling di's warmth. She is such a warm and kind person that anyone can gel with her easily. The first time when I talked to her over the phone she spoke to me like she has known me for god knows how many years and making me feel that I am part of their family only. She  is like a elder sister to me who I can look upto for any advice and support. 

"Kaisi hai bachaa" neetu di said warmly.

"Mane thik hoon di...aap kaise ho, ghar par sab thik" I asked her smilingly.

"Haa sab theek... achaa ye bata ye badmaash tujhe zada tang toh nhi karta warna mane abhi iske kaan keechungi" neetu di said teasingly while looking towards sidharth who was standing behind me. Over these years neetu di know how sidharth and I behave around each other and how much we found comfort in each other. In initial days I felt awkward to hug him in front of her but seeing how chill she was I got use to it. Now,I even complain about sidharth to her without thinking and she like a good sister to me always supports me and scolds sidharth. 

"Haa buss aate hi meri burai puchna shuru kar di...sahi hai". sidharth said grumpily making both of us laugh.

"Arre mere bache aise muh mat fula..mane toh aise hi keh rahi thi" saying this she hugged him tightly making sidharth grin. He also reciprocated the hug tightly making sure di slapped his arm feeling the tightness of the hug

My attention from them was diverted when maa said "Shehnaaz isse mil ye hai neetu ki nanad Vaidehi jo ki ek bahut badi fashion designer hai."

The girl standing in front of me looked beautiful and I am not saying about the artificial beauty but natural beauty. Her figure was lean and her height was 5'8 against my 5'5. I looked so small in front of her. I felt conscious in front of her. But something about her was not right...something negative. But it will be wrong for me to judge her quickly without knowing her so... I shrugged my thoughts and smiled nervously at her while forwarding my hand towards her for a handshake.

But instead of shaking my hands she surprised me by a hug and said "Shehnaaz mane tum sa kabse milna chahti thi...maine bahut suna hai tumhare bare mane bhabhi(neetu di) sa... ki tum kitni pyaari aur cute ho."

I smiled at her shyly and said to her softly "Aap bhi bahut pyaare aur beautiful ho"

"Thank you so much shehnaaz" saying this she looked behind me where sidharth was talking with di and smiled widely while approaching him. I could see something in her smile was odd making my insides churn with anxiety.

"Sid! Kaise ho tum?" saying this she wrapped her hands around his neck and hugged him. He also reciprocated the same. It was a simple hug, it didn't mean much but for a painful moment, I felt like my world shook and soon it will slip out of my hands. There was a weird ache in my heart which was telling me something bad is gonna happen.

"All good. Tum batao tum kaisi ho?". Sidharth said, while he came out of the hug swiftly.

"Acchi hoon. It's been so long Sid! I think hum shaadi mane hi mile the last, uske baad tum busy ho gaye aur mane bhi!" She said smiling up at him.

I could see that sidharth was not much interested in the conversation but knowing who she is  he could not ignore her.

"Yeah" He trailed off.

"Chalo bacho andar chalo baaki ki baate andar karenge" maa said and we all moved inside. They all sat in the living room while I decided to move to kitchen pouring water in glass for di and Vaidehi thinking they might be feeling thirsty.
