THEIR UNWANTED MARRIAGE

PART 5

Happy Reading!

It's been almost a week since both Arohi and Abhishek agreed for the marriage. It's like both of their lives have changed. They both were happy to see their families happy but they themselves were restless.

Both the families have already called the priests and matched their kundali. They all were happy as the date was fixed for next month.

---------------------------------------------------------

Arohi went to the market to buy some fabrics. She was waiting for the bus when someone tapped her shoulder. She turned around and saw Bhavna and Ashika.

"Namaste aunty. Hii Ashika" she touched Bhavna's feet. "Hi didi"

"What are you doing here beta?"

"Vo aunty I came here to buy some fabrics. What are you guys doing here?"

"We came here to buy your wedding dresses Arohi bhabhi" Ashika chirped, the word "bhabhi", it felt too strange for her to hear that word.

"Ooh that's nice. Enjoy shopping. I was just leaving" she just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

"Arey beta why don't you come with us. I was actually planning to call you but see we found you here only" Arohi just smiled at them and cursed her luck.

"Come bhabhi bhai is also here. You guys can buy matching clothes now"

They all went inside the boutique. Abhishek frowned looking at her but they both just nodded at each other.

Ashika was too excited to buy new clothes for herself, and Bhavna was overjoyed seeing different bridal and groom dresses. Whereas Arohi was busy looking at the clothes detailings and designs. She was taking pictures of the dresses she liked for preference for her designs.

Arohi could feel Abhishek's gaze on herself. But she was ignoring her royally.

"Aru bhabhi see this dress is so beautiful" Ashika showed one dress to Arohi.

"It's good Ashi but don't you think the work is too much in it?" she said analysing the dress. Ashika looked at it again and nodded with Arohi. Whenever they showed her something she used to say this is not good, it is too much, color not good, and so on.

Abhishek just rolled his eyes at her comments. He couldn't even mock her because if he did, his mother would kick him off.

"Arohi did you like anything beta?" Bhavna asked her with a warm smile.

"I am umm very confused aunty. I like everything here but as a designer I am finding something or the other fault in it. If you don't mind can I design the dresses?" she asked with a smile.

Abhishek was shocked hearing her words. Abhishek looked at the girl in a blue jeans, a white top and a shrug standing in front of him standing so confident. This is the best boutique and still this girl likes nothing.

Bhavna nodded. They gave their measurements and Arohi told them that she will drop the designs next week. They all left and they dropped Arohi to her hostel.

---------------------------------------------------------

A month later,

All the rituals started of their marriage. Everyone was happy except the bride and groom. Both were unable to understand what to do and cursed their destiny.

Arohi was getting her mehndi applied. The mehndi artist engraved her husband's name in her palms. Her parents, relatives, cousins everyone were dancing and singing.
