Kitni Mohabbat Hai!

Chapter 8: she likes

Their car glided through the city streets, the hum of the engine blending with the soft whispers of Anirudh's subtle yet enchanting words. Vasudha, seated beside him, couldn't help but blush at the sweet compliments he showered on her.

With a twinkle in his eye, Anirudh continued to express his admiration for Vasudha, making the car ride an enchanting journey of sweet words and shared glances. Their hands found each other, fingers entwined, a silent promise of togetherness as Anirudh skillfully maneuvered through the traffic.

As they reached the renowned Fashion Designer Gayatri Shekhawat's office, Anirudh took out Vasudha's dream wedding folder. The one Vasudha gave him last night.

Anirudh: "Vasudha, Maine yeh folder kal raat dhyaan se dekha tha aur outfits dekh kar mujhe laga ki Gayatri Dadi will do a good job. She's Dadi's friend too. But agar aapko koi aur designer pasand hai toh tell me"

Vasudha, touched by Anirudh's genuine interest in making her dreams a reality, nodded with gratitude and said: "Nahi Nahi! Mrs. Shekhawat toh India ki best designer hai!"

Anirudh sighed in relief and got out of the car to open the door for Vasudha. As Anirudh and Vasudha entered Gayatri Shekhawat's studio, the air was filled with the vibrant energy of creativity. Anirudh, accustomed to calling Gayatri 'Dadi' out of affection, greeted her with the same warmth and respect that he would offer his grandmother.

Anirudh: "Dadi, kaisi hain aap?"

Gayatri, with a bright smile, replied, "Ani, my boy! Welcome home and congratulations beta shaadi ke liye! Nandu (nickname for Nandini) ka phone aaya tha!"

Anirudh, filled with gratitude, touched Gayatri's feet, seeking her blessings for this new phase in his life. Vasudha, observing the familial reverence, followed suit and touched Gayatri's feet as well.

Anirudh: "Dadi, meet Vasudha. Vasudha, Gayatri Dadi aur Dadi childhood friends hai. More like sisters!"

Gayatri, extending her arms, embraced Vasudha, "Beta, welcome to the family! Itni khushi hui tumse milke and you are gorgeous my girl! Ani and you are made for each other! Nandu ne toh bahut tareef ki thi tumhari. Ab shaadi ke outfits ke baare mein baat karte hain!"

Vasudha, feeling the warmth of Gayatri's welcome, smiled, "Thank you, Dadi. It's a pleasure to meet you too!"

Gayatri, with her experienced eyes, looked at the couple with affection, blessing them, "Bhagwan tum dono hamesha hamesha bahut hush rakhi. Ab chalo, let's create some magic for your special day!"

At the cue, Anirudh carefully handed over Vasudha's dream wedding folder to Gayatri, who eagerly received it with a smile. The folder, a treasure trove of Vasudha's aspirations, held the key to creating the perfect wedding ensemble.

Anirudh: "Dadi, iss folder me Sab kuch hai hamari wedding se related, outfits se lekar decorations tak. Aap outfits Wala section apne pass rash lijiyega wedding tak?"

Gayatri, flipping through the pages, admired the meticulous details that Vasudha had put together. While Vasudha's heart warmed at Anirudh's respect and consideration for her dreams & likings. Her eyes glistened at Anirudh's mention of how they both want whatever is inside the folder. It was as if Anirudh has decided that what Vasudha wants is what he wants.

Gayatri: "Anirudh, Vasudha this is exactly what I needed! Tum dono ne mere liye sab kuch easy kar diya hai. Don't worry mai sab isle according hi karungi!"

As they delved into the discussion, Gayatri's expertise in fabrics and embroidery became evident. She guided them through the intricacies of various fabrics, discussing the unique qualities of each.
