Will We Unite?

Part 9 ~ The Reception Begins

Ranbir is about to say something when he hears Pallavi say, "Ranbir come home quickly and bring Prachi too or else you guys will be late for your own reception and don't worry about the rest of your classes today your dad and chief have already told your principal that you'll be leaving early."

"Ok, relax mom me and Prachi will come right now and we won't be late for the reception," Ranbir replies.

Pallavi quickly says, "come quickly, bye."

Ranbir is about to reply but realizes the call had already been cut. Ranbir turns to Prachi and says, "Prachi I guess we'll have to put this fight in our on-hold fights list as mom wants us to go home as soon as possible, so we don't get late for the reception."

"Okay then let's go," Prachi says. Prachi and Ranbir head over to the car.

Shahana says, "Aryan I think we should go and find Prachi and Ranbir now their probably wondering where we are and if both of them come to know about our relationship they will never stop teasing us."

"Shahana I think the last part you said was right but I can't really say the same for the first part," Aryan replies.

"And why is that?" Shahana questions.

Aryan point his head in a particular direction so that Shahana could face that same direction where it can be seen that Prachi and Ranbir are walking, their hands almost touching and are going over to Ranbir's car and driving off in it, not even once thinking about the either of them!

Shahana says, "it's only been one night since their marriage and they've already forgotten us!" "It sure seems like it," Aryan replies.

"Let's go as I don't want to be late to the reception of my best friend cum sister even if she has forgotten me," Shahana tells Aryan. Aryan nods and the both them leave towards Aryan's car to go to back home.

Riya looks at Aryan and Shahana's retreating figures and thinks, now that both Prachi and Shahana have got their lovers they've completely forgotten me. Well, at least I can tease them both endlessly and they'll have nothing to tease me back with. Riya sighs and heads over to her car, feeling more lonely than ever.

Prachi is looking at out the window and thinks, why did I feel so angry when Ranbir was complimenting Mishti and why did I become relaxed once I found Mishti was Ranbir's sister? Was I jealous? No, no, no definitely not, then why do I get so affected when I see Ranbir with someone else? Do I love... No, no Prachi you don't love him. No I do love Ranbir, I l...love Ranbir. I love him. I love Ranbir.

Ranbir thinks, why did Mishti have to reveal to Prachi that she was my sister? If Mishti hadn't revealed she was my sister for two more minutes then maybe my plan would've worked and Prachi may've said that she loves me as well. Prachi turns to look at Ranbir. Ranbir notices this and looks at Prachi, who seemed lost deep in thought with a soft smile.

As soon Prachi remembers what Ranbir had said in the morning she recalls Ranbir being there for her, by her side always trusting and supporting her when she was accused of horrible stuff. Prachi sees a lady out the window and her smile fades away as her eyes brim with tears while she recalls her terrible past and thinks, I should tell Ranbir. I don't want him finding out from anyone else, after all I should share everything with him, shouldn't I? Prachi is silently fighting with herself while she unknowingly lets out a few tears recalling her past and Ranbir notices them and parks the car to a side.
