Second Wife, Second Love.

14. Preparations.

***Ramya's POV.***

"What about this one? It looks nice." I say.

"Yeah. But this one looks much better." Reyansh says.

"Yes. But this one is more of a looker." I argue.

"Not from where I am standing." He mumbles.

"Then stand here." I say with a smile.

"No, thank you." He says, "What about this one? Let's finalize this one."

"But it is a little bland." I say.

"Oh, my goodness! You are taking this much time to decide on the site. I don't know how much time it would take for other things." Arya says and gets up from the couch.

"It is all Reyansh's fault. He is very picky." I say.

"Says the girl who takes hours and hours to shop." He mumbles.

"Hey!" I exclaim.

"But he is right, dear." Arya says.

"I know. But he doesn't have to be blunt about it." I say while pouting.

"That won't work on me again. You can rule in our personal life, but in a professional one, I am the boss. I say we go with this one. From a tech point of view, it has magnificent scenery, a peaceful environment and a good place for start-up. Also, the internet connection is well above good there." Reyansh says, picking up his recent option.

"As you say. But I would still say it is bland." I say.

"It has to be renovated, no doubt, even so, it is the best place out of ‌these." He says waving at other pictures of sites.

"You are right. Fine. We will lock this one then." I say and pick up the picture and give it to Arya.

"Great. Now I can finally start working on this one too. But after your wedding, if that is okay." Arya says.

"It is. So when do we have to leave for Jaipur?" Reyansh asks as he closes his laptop and other stuff while I gather the pictures.

"Day after tomorrow." She says.

"Then I have to complete some work before that." He says.

"I will leave you to it, then." She says and leaves.

"So we are hiring people after the wedding?" I ask.

"Yes. While you can hire administrative employees on your own, I would only accompany you to important ones in which I am experienced." He says and I nod.

"How is it going?" I ask after a few seconds.

"What do you mean?" He asks with a frown.

"I mean, you have been working non-stop. Are you taking care of yourself?" I ask, a little concerned about him.

"Yes. And don't worry, I will not get sick before or during the wedding." He says.

"That is what I mean. You are such a... Did you get to talk with Jagvi?" I ask.

"Why would I talk to her again? Everything is over between us." He says and I nod.

"Do you need any help?" I ask.

"No. I am fine here." He says, still engrossed in his laptop.

"I shouldn't have demanded a destination wedding." I say.

"Yes, you shouldn't. But what's done is done. You are getting married once according to your view and I am not interested in all this, but would do so for my family's happiness. What I don't understand is why are you feeling guilty about it all of a sudden?" He asks.
