I am getting ready as today is the wedding. Yesterday when I was with Aarav I felt his gaze on me. He was looking at me but I didn't have courage to meet his eyes. I just ignored his gaze. I was in deep thinking am I doing right. Not letting him enter my life again.
"Kaira are you ready?" I was dragged out of my thoughts by Rohini.
"Yeah I am almost ready." I said. I am wearing a saree. I wanted to wear from such a long time. I didn't know how to drape it so I watched from YouTube. They have really good tricks.
"Kaira oh my my, you are looking so pretty." She said looking at me from mirror.
"Thank you. But I must say today Siddharth will not be able to take his eyes off you." I said and she blushed.
"You are turning all red like a tomato. So cute." I said laughing and teasing her.
"Shut up Kaira." She said and blushed even harder. I started laughing more.
We both were dressed when Akash came in for my help.
"Kaira see I not able to fix this." He spilled something on himself as always. He is very clumsy. He shouldn't wear something in white but he looks really good in white though.
"You are always clumsy. Let me see." I said rolling my eyes.
"It's just a little dot Akash. No one will be able to even see this." I said to him. He made a pout. Trying to look cute.
"I know. But I won't be able to keep this away from my mind." I facepalmed myself.
"So you should have taken care earlier. By the way, you will wear court over it right, then it will not be visible. I promise." I said. He looked a little sad but nodded and went to his room.
Rohini was standing there enjoying it.
"What?" I raised as eyebrow.
"He is like a little kid in front of you always." She said laughing.
"I know." I started laughing too.
"Let's go down. Siddharth is calling me." I nodded. And we went down where the wedding will take place.
I saw Aarav. He was looking so handsome. He always looks I know but today he looks extra handsome and hot. I turned my gaze away I don't want to get caught staring him. I made my way to the couple.
"Hi! You guys look adorable." I said and engulfed them in a hug.
"Thank you so much." They said in unison.
I went back to table. Aarav came and sat beside me. He turned towards me. "Kaira you are looking very beautiful."
I turned to meet his eyes. "Thank you. And you are looking very ho... handsome." I smiled.
What was I gonna say. Are you out of your mind Kaira? You can't say that. What has gotten into you.
When I came out of my thoughts he was looking at me. I think he wants to say something. "Do you want to say something?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah Kair-" Before he could say anything else a girl came from behind.
"Hey!" She said. I looked at both of them. Aarav was looking confused too. I think he also doesn't know who she is.
"Hi" he said with confused expression.
"You don't remember me? I was with you in college." She said excitedly.
But if she was in his college. So why don't I know her?
"Sorry I don't remember. Can you tell me your name?" He asked smiling. Why the hell he is smiling at her. He just said he doesn't know her so.
'Shut up. He is just smiling at her.' My conscience told.
"My name is Diya. Diya Awasthi." She said.
"Oh hi Diya it's been such a long time. How are you?" He shook her hand.
Oh, so he knows her but never told me. Nice!
'Why are you getting upset? You don't want anything from him right?' My conscience replied again.
I know but still. And why can't you just shut up? I want to hear their conversation.
"Diya meet Kaira. She is my friend." He said gesturing his hand towards me.
Just a friend. Great!
"Hi! Nice to meet you." She said smiling.
"Hello! Nice to meet you too." I said forcing a smile. I hope he hadn't noticed.
"Excuse me! I need to go to meet someone. You guys continue." I forced a smile again.
Wow! She is so irritating. And how she was clinging on to him.
'So what? If he isn't saying something why are you getting angry?'
I am not getting angry. I am just stating fact.
I went to Akash but he was flirting with some girl as always. I think I should find Rohini, no, she must be busy with Siddharth I don't want to be third wheel. Where should I go? I don't know I will just sit here only then. Because I also don't want to be third wheel between Aarav and that girl, Diya.
I was eating snacks, and humming with music. When I felt a tap on my shoulder I turned around to see Akash there.
"Hey, why are you here all alone?" Akash asked.
"Because I wanted to be here." I said smiling.
He raised an eyebrow. "Come with me." He said grabbing my wrist.
"But where?" I asked stopping him.
"To sit with us obviously." He said. I nodded.
Where is Aarav? Is he still with that girl? It doesn't matter it's his life. I started talking to Akash and eating snacks. That's how I spent the whole wedding.
It was now time for photo. We all went to stage and clicked some pictures. Aarav was behind me. I can his feel his breath. After that all went to their rooms. Today was really hectic day. I removed all the makeup and saree and, wore something comfortable. My feets were hurting due to heels. It is just the worst thing to wear. Sneakers are the best. I came back to room from washroom. As soon as I laid on bed sleep engulfed me.I hope you liked it.
