Imperfectly Perfect

Chapter 6

Aarohi pov

I woke early and completed my morning routine and went to work. Nothing unexpected happened. My boss had not yet returned. So, I had more time to learn about everything. But there is a group of girls who just don't like me.
Hmmph they are just jealous of my beauty. And it was already evening.

I decided to go home.I went to bus stop and waited for few minutes. Today I think it was my lucky day so bus came early. I was feeling something is wrong but I don’t know what. I just ignored it and went inside my house. When I entered the atmosphere became thick. Everything was so gloomy.

When I entered my mom came and asked, “Are you tired dear?”

And I was shocked would be an understatement. I was so confused. I know she wanted something from me so she is talking like this. I don't even remember when was the last time she spoke to me like this. But today the matter must be big. So she is speaking like this. I am getting scared now.

“Mom just say what you want don’t need to sugarcoat it.” I said in a flat tone.

“Actually, there has been some problem in your fathers company.”

“Not my fathers your husbands .”

“Yeah my husband's. So you have to do us a favour.” She said cautiously trying to read my face. But I kept my emotionless face.

I nodded. So she continued. “You have to marry one of his friend’s son.”

I got angry. “I won't be marrying anyone. You have your daughter know, so marry her off. Why are you bringing me in this.”

“I would have married her off but you see she is still young to get married.”

“I am just few months older than her. But that doesn’t mean you can just marry me off.” I was furious.

This is a life changing matter. What she have thought of marriage?

“Yeah but we can't marry her off before marrying you and she is already in love with someone else. You don’t love anyone. So we are marrying you off.” She just said like it doesn’t matter. Why I am even surprised. Of course it doesn’t matter to her.

“I won't marry. I have already got a job so I will be moving out.” I said confidently and was going to my room. But her next words stopped me.

“If you don’t marry we four will get killed.”

“What are you even saying. don’t lie to me.”

“What I am saying is true. Hardik made a business deal with some people. And they turned out to be in mafia. They are not just local people, they are the biggest mafia in India. And they even have connections all over the world. They are also very dangerous. So if you don’t want to get us killed, please do us a favor. And marry him. Why I am asking you to marry because they already had all information about our family and they wanted their son to marry you. But we refused and now they are threatening us. Please marry him Aarohi.” She said and started crying.

I haven’t seen her cry. I was in a dilemma. I didn't know what to do. I don't know what kind of people they are. If they are bad my life will be spoilt if not we all will get killed. I don't even know if my mother is telling the truth or lying.

So now I am ready to give up life for the people who hated me my whole life. I don't know who to trust but there is no other way to escape from this marriage.

“Okay , I will marry him.” I said monotonously and went to my room.

I was awake the whole night and was planning how can I escape from this marriage. I even googled 'How to run away from your own marriage ?' , ' How I can murder my mafia fiancé?'.

The people who will see my history and will think I am a psychopath killer. What an irony. A girl who is scared of a lizard will murder her future husband. And that guy is in mafia.

Girl you can only be in delulu when you are dreaming about your fictional boyfriend not thinking about murdering your mafia fiancé.

Girl you just shut up.

Also think it will be so cool to have a mafia husband.

Me and my subconscious need help. And I thought this is my lucky day.

With this thought I drifted off to sleep.

NEXT MORNING

I just thought of wearing a simple peach summer dress which reached until my ankle. And I put my hair in a messy bun. I completed my look with a simple makeup that is peach lipstick and moisturizer. And I wore my favorite white shoes and came down. You'll think I would get dressed in traditional.

Oh puh-lease. He don't deserve to see me in my traditional. I look so beautiful, so elegant and just look like a wow. So now way I will be dressing up for him.

Everyone were already waiting for me. I heard cars sound. Hardik and my mother both went to greet the guest leaving me as a nervous mess.

But no one was there to comfort me and say everything will be fine. And my stepsister just stood there in the corner glaring but you know what I don’t give a fuck about what she is thinking. Lets she just glare and stand there. And why is she even glaring at me.

If she wanted to marry that guy she could have just said to her mother. I would happily trade my place with her. Like just think guys you'll will reach home after spending a whole day with stupid muggles. And then you have to deal with one more muggle. Sigh.

I was busy killing my stepsister in my head and at the same time having weird thoughts. I know guys. Multi-tasking. That's one of my talent.

Then three persons came inside wearing expensive suits with some more person coming behind them for security. I don't think our President have this much security.

See they have seen your search history so only they brought more people.

How can I kill my subconscious without killing myself?

When I saw the last person who entered made me surprise and furious at the same time.

So one more chapter guys.
