Amie
We reached preeti bhabhi's house few minutes ago. Seema aunty and ashok uncle (preeti's mom and dad) warmly welcomed us.
I immediately hugged preeti di (sis) when i saw her i call her di but from now onwards I should call her bhabi obviously.
"Ohh amie i missed you!" She said leaving hug.
"Yeahh me too!" I said with a chuckle.
"Heyy main bhi hu yaha, koi mujhe bhi hug karlo" Amna said dramatically from behind.
(I'm also here, hug me too)
"Aww amna how are you dear!" Preeti bhabi asked hugging her.
"Can i get a hug too please?" Ritik bhai asked with a chuckle making eye contact with her which made her shy and she looked down smiling.
Why is she shy as if they never did uh may be because of everyone's presence.
"Ohh oho!!" Amna said bumping her shoulder with my brother teasingly.
"Are yaar bhabi toh sharma rahi hai" I said chuckling. Me and amna teased them more.
(sister-in law is feeling so shy)
We all seated and our families stared talking about things. When we talk about Indian weddings all we can assume is a fun flled events and the first ritual is roka ceremony.
It was time to do the ceremony, everyone made ritik bhai and preeti bhabi sit together.
The first ritual that is performed is the Tilak ceremony.
Mom, seema aunty and amisha aunty did tilak ceremony by applying a paste of vermilion and rice grains on the foreheads of bhai and bhabi.
Then mom adorns the bhabi with a beautiful red dupatta and blessed her and gave her gifts and sweets.
So did seema aunty gave gifts and sweets to bhai and blessed him. After then dad and mahir's parents blessed them.
While me and amna, mahir were stood watching all this. Mahir was on my left little away from me i felt like he was stealing glances at me or I'm being delusional don't know.
But what if he likes me too is there any possibility?? I giggled at the thought.
Preeti bhabi's family gave gifts they brought for us. I got a huge box I'm excited to open it but i can't open it now right?
Mom told me to behave nicely already she will surely kill me if I did now.
The roka ceremony is over, and we all seated at dining for lunch, huh finally I was hungry.
Everyone started having food and engaged in talks related to the wedding, like engagement date, wedding date, etc.
♡
We dropped amna to her home. Now me and mahir are alone, oh wait my gift!
"Will you please stop the car for a minute"
"Okay" He said without asking anything.
I unbuckle the seat belt while he was watching me. The gift which was kept on back seat behind his.
I leaned closer to grab the gift while his eyes went wide.
"W-what are you doing?" He asked stuttering.
"Uh I want that gift box" I said ponting at the gift and stood in my place.
He kept blinking looking at me as if I had asked him for his kidney.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing, i'll get it" He said and got off from the car and brought the gift.
"Thank you" I said taking gift and giggling at him.
"Uhh i am feeling hot suddenly!" He muttered to himself.
What? He's feeling hot suddenly? Huh forget it, MY GIFT.
I started tearing off the gift paper wrapped around the box. I opened the box immediately and my jaw dropped
"OH MY GOD" I screamed."What? Why are you screaming?" Mahir asked.
"Look at this! they gifted me Chanel's bag" I said in excitement.
"Ohh acha" He said with a smile.
"You know what i loved it-" He looked at me when I said this and cut me off in middle and stopped the car.
Huh??He leaned over so close to me!What is he doing? Is he going to kiss me? no no it can't be!!
My heartbeat got faster because of closeness. His woody scent invaded my senses.
And then he buckled my seatbelt. Ohh!! I face palmed internally and released my breathe which I was holding.
"Why didn't you buckle your seatbelt" He said bringing me back from my dreamland and started driving again.
"I-i forgot" I said.
"Or you wanted me to do it for you?" He said locking his eyes with mine and smirked.
"Huh!? No!"
"Chill I'm just teasing you" He said with a chuckle.
To which i gave him a stare.
