Hi Ahaan nice to meet you,papa who's marriage are we talking about here?”

“Yours of course”

“Wait what!”

“You're getting married to Hriday on the 15th of February”

“But you didn't even ask me and what about college what about my dreams what about what I want to do with my li-”

Before Chayya could finish her father slapped her 

“You ungrateful brat I have given you the best life possible and you can't even repay me by marrying a guy of my choice I don't care about your dreams and your life as long as you're in my house you're going to live by my rules got it!?”

Chayya just ran away to her room crying 

After some time she heard a knock on the door 

“ whoever is it please just go away okay” Chayya struggled to speak in between her tears

“Hey its me Hriday I just want to talk to you 5 minutes bas”

“If you're also here to force me into marrying you then I'm not interested”

“Just hear what I have to say please”

“ fine you get 5 minutes but I am not opening the door”

“no problem I'll talk through the door Chayya listen I'm not a bad guy I'll treat you very well just give me one chance alright this marriage is really important to both our families”

“But what about my life,my future, my goals I don't want to be just a housewife”

“I promise you I'll support you at every step of the way if not marriage can we just date? You'll get to know me well and then you can decide”

“ I'll think about it”

“I'm passing you my phone number through the door call me when and if you want no pressure” 

Chayya didn't give any response to this and just sat thinking about what to do. 

She called Shristi and told her everything that happened 

“ shri I don't know what to do what if I ruin my life with all of this”

“ baba Chayya relax Hriday seems like a very good guy you can date him and if you don't like him then as he told no pressure right”

“ Yeah you're right “

“ now tell me all about the hot younger brother hriday has”

“ Excuse me Shristi if I may remind you, you have a fiancée Arya who you're marrying in 2 days”

“ Yeah yeah but I can look at eye candy right”

“You're such a whore shri”

“Yeah, whatever there is a new movie you want to go watch tomorrow?”

“Sorry you know I go to the orphanage on Tuesdays and Thursdays “

“Oh yeah right….OH MY GOD” shristi screamed 

“What are you alright?”

“ I just had the best idea ever. Why don't you take Hriday with you on a first date?”

“I'll see”

“Shit I have to go Arya is calling me I'll text you later love you bye”

“ mhm bye”

Should I really take Hriday on a first date?

And that too an orphanage? 

Chayya thought to herself
