A Marriage of Convenience: A Love Story of Unfamiliar Beginnings

Chapter 14

It was finally the day of wedding everything was perfectly being managed according to the function. The muhurat for the wedding was of 5:30 in the evening and currently it was 8 in the morning as both Raj and Akriti decided that they would gift the factory workers and office workers a few things which included cash, cloths and a few utensils as per the need. Even though many guests weren't invited as it was supposed to be the wedding between close family members and a few special guests and in between the list of special guests all the factory and office workers were invited to the wedding.

"Akriti, bacche everyone is already in the backyard, come fast!" Sunil said entering into Akriti's room looking at his daughter who was finding something.

"Beta what are you finding?" Sunil asked his daughter

"Dad, I prepared a special gift for Ronit, but I am not able to find it.! Akriti said looking under her purse only to find it out.

"OK! Mill gaya chalo!" Akriti said grinning over the thing she found, making Sunil chuckle at her antics. As she reached downstairs everyone was waiting for her so that they can start giving gifts to everyone, this was something Raj always wanted to do during his wedding as his success was not only his hard work but also a big contribution from all of his workers, if not for them it would have been difficult for Raj to reach where he was today, and when he shared this idea with Ariti she was really happy and agreed instantly as even she thought that without those helping hands this luxurious wedding would not have been possible.

They started giving gifts to everyone and taking blessings from those who were the elders and those of their age hugged them and congratulated them and wished them a happy married life, but with all these things their was someone who was not at all happy, as this wasn't what traditional wedding looked liked, the girl was supposed to be in her room and not outside with her soon to be husband. 
Well guessed it right it's our- Buaji ..

"In logo ko shadi main bulana zaruri tha? Bade logo ko ignore kar diya aur in sab logo ko bula diya!" Rashmi said gritting her teeth and rolling her eyes on both Akriti and Raj.

"Jii buaji zaruri tha, agar ye log nhi hote to apka bhatija aaj shayad yaha nhi hota!" Akriti said very politely to buaji, but buaji felt humiliated. 

"Shut up you disgraceful girl, and my son Raj he doesn't needs these low class people to make him at the top of world!" Rashmi said scolding Akriti, but before Akriti could speak Raj sopke,

"Yes I do buaji, I need them OK! So please can you not create a scene over here!" Raj said silencing her and continued giving gifts to everyone and now finally it was their assistants time and as much happy they were to receive their gifts so were Raj and Akriti to give them the gifts.

"Wahh finally, after working eight years for you I am finally getting a gift! God I will never forget thing day!" Ronit, Akriti's assistant commented to which he just received a side eye.

"Bro its just eight years, I've been working for this man since the day he started his internship i.e., 12 years ago, and this is first time he is giving me something. This is such an auspicious day!" Vikram, Raj's assistant whispered in Ronit's years a little loudly.

"I heard that Mr. Vikram." Raj said glaring at Vikram, and the both Akriti and Raj handed small boxes to both of their assistants hoping for them to like it.

"Come on man, I served you for 12 years and this is what I get, This small box. Bro your so cheap even after being the owner of this big group." Vikram said looking at the sky to which Ronit nodded in agreement and they both opened their gifts only to find some keys that belong to a house.

"I guess you don't like it, just give it back Ronit!" Akriti said trying to take the keys back.

"Aree areee, my bad my bad its the best gift anyone can receive, by the way its flat keys right?" Ronit said backing away with the keys.
