Two day later...
SARAToday we're having a family dinner at my place, and everyone is coming. Actually, we all live in the same building.
As you all know, I agreed to meet Shubman two days ago. However, my family has already started making plans for the wedding, even though I haven't agreed to marry him yet.
"Hi, Savita Atya and Atya," I said while entering the kitchen. "Hey, my beauty, how are you?" Savita Atya greeted me with a big smile. Naina Atya, on the other hand, simply responded with a "Hi" and seemed a bit indifferent.
Now, Naina Atya, well... I don't know how to put it, but she's not exactly happy with us since Kiara Di's wedding. She didn't approve of her marrying her friend's son, who is Akash Jiju, my brother-in-law.
Apparently, Naina Atya and Kiara Di's mother-in-law used to be best friends, but something happened between them that made them hate each other.
On the contrary, Kiara Di and Akash Jiju fell in love, and my parents couldn't disagree with their relationship. Since then, Naina Atya has been a little distant from us.
But never mind that, as I entered the living room and saw both of my cousins, Aaryan and Sia, sitting there with Ajoba and Aji.
"Sa" Sia said running towards me and giving me a big hug. "Hi Sia, how are you?" I said hugging back. "I'm good, I missed you and off course Kiara di! You both left me here with these dumbass'" said Sia. "Ahahahhahaha, abh nahi (now not), now that I've come!" I said going toward Aaryan and giving a wink to Sia. "Hi Aaryan! Give me a hug at least.🤪" I said teasing him. "Ha di (sis) off course." He said hugging me.
After all the chatter patter (talking) and having dinner. We were all sitting in the living room. That when I started to get tension.
"Sa, I had called the Gills yesterday. They said that Shubman is ready to meet you and I said that you are also ready to meet him. We've decided that they will come on Monday to Mumbai with their family to meet us." Thats what baba (dad) said and the living room turned silenced.
What?!?! So fast...
"Uhm... Monday as in in two days?" I asked. "Yes Sa, Monday as in two days!" Ai (mom) added.
Okeyy
"Theek hai (okey)" I said and with that we started playing cards with the whole family.
It was Sunday today. Tommorow they are coming over I don't know what to think. Ugh that's when my phone rang. "Ahhhhh Kiara Di (sis) hiiiiiii" I said after picking up. "Hi Sa, how are you? I heard some guy is coming over Tommorow to see you? Is he hot? Is he tall?" Di (sis) asked. "Di (sis) wait, yes Tommorow he's coming. And about hot or tall or anything I don't know I'm sending you a picture..."
Photo sent.
"Oehhh he hotttt" didi (sister) said while looking at the picture. "Di (sis) I don't know if I'm ready for it. Like I've never thought about this and I'm really scared" I said while playing and staring at my hands that was resting on my lap.
"Sa, don't be. Like your jiju and I had the same thought when getting married. You know how much of a problem Naina Atya (auntie) created that day. But we've made through it! So don't be scared. And if you don't like him just say no. I'm sure ai and baba (mom and dad) won't force you!" Di (sis) said assuring me.
After that conversation we talked about my studies, cooking , our family and so on...
And with that Monday came by quickly...
............
SHUBMAN
"Shub, Sachin called me today and said Sara has arrived in Mumbai and agreed to meet you. So we decided to go to Mumbai on Monday," my dad said as he entered my office. "Thik hai dad, (okay)," I replied.
Today is Monday. It is 5:30 in the morning, and we are going to Mumbai. Our flight is at 9, so we have to leave the house by 6, as the airport is 45 minutes away from our house. Those coming to Mumbai are Aryaman Bhai, Kiana bhabhi, mom, and dad. The rest are staying back in Delhi as Shahneel, Disha, and Karan have college, and chacha has to stay back for the office, with Chachi taking care of dadu and dadi. Foi is also not coming because she has fractured her leg, so she can't travel at the moment.
Sitting on the plane, deep in thought, I wondered how she would be. Is she a party girl? Does she expect me to fall in love with her? Ughhh, these thoughts are killing me. With that, I took a powernap.
As soon as we landed, we headed to our apartment. Yes, we have a house here in Mumbai, as I travel here a lot, which is why I bought an apartment.
"Shub, go freshen up! We'll be heading to their place at 6," mom said. After that, everyone went to their rooms.
It was time to get ready. I spent my time working since I had enough time to do so.
Mom passed by and gave me a kurta to wear tonight. With that, I went to the bathroom and started getting ready.
"Are you all ready?" Dad asked. "Yes," everyone replied in unison.The car stopped right outside her house. Oh, it's time to meet her.
"Hi Sachin, kaise ho (how are you)?" Dad asked Uncle. "Mai theek hu! Tu bol. (I'm good! You say)," he replied. "Mai bhi theek (I'm also good)," and with that, we entered their house.
Her entire family was sitting in the living room, waiting for us. Oh, so she also has a big family. Great, that means she knows how to live with a large family.
"Shubman beta, kaise ho (Dear, how are you)?" Her mom asked. "I'm good, auntie. Thank you," I replied.
And after that, they all started talking...
