AHANA PATEL

In total 35 guests plus my family. I smiled at everyone, and all have reached here on time. My toes hurt from wearing heels but for others it wasn't that bad. I saw Ayush, walk in wearing deep blue kurta and some random pants he found from the closet. He shaved and I smell the aftershave miles away. He drinks it or what.

"Ayu..."
"Chotu where is your Roshan?"

I rolled my eyes and pointed towards the stage where he was checking the lights and Ayush walked towards him. In between my phone beeped texts from Aarav. He isn't around means went for something else, but I ignored the text and stayed there itself to see Nisha aunty come by with my parents.

"Ahana, looking good."
"Thanks."

They walked in but ma stood behind eyeing me. I pointed to stage where Ayush is talking to Roshan and scaring him off. She sighed and followed papa to sit somewhere. I checked the time, and it is time to start the program and almost all have reached here. I closed the door looking at the huge fountain in front.

My saree is moving cleaner, and all clapped their hands when I climbed the stage with Roshan and Aarav is nowhere to be seen. He is our CEO and where the fuck did, he go. Few minutes I saw him on walk with an anger fixed on his face.

"Evening fellow mates and I heartly welcome our CEO Siddharth Aarav and our new investor Roshan Shetty to the event with whole heart also my dear friends present here."

I handed each mic to them when I leaned to Aarav, he whispered something on ear, but I didn't hear it clear and left it hanging there.

"Thanks for welcoming me Ahana and Siddharth a special thanks for you accepting us as your new funder." He smiled at him, but that asshole kept on glaring at me for what good reason I ask then nothing.

"Few words from you Siddharth."
"First of all, thanks all to join us making this event better also thanks to Ahana for arranging this as my PA, taking my position and covering it for me."

He side hugged me from the stage making the crowd clap and I smiled but this time heard what he whispered. 

'Careful with these moves Heer.'

I clapped and spoke few more minutes then played the video of our companies' new logo and other project things making all just clap. At last, the refreshments were brought, and I opened the door to back yard with that huge fountain. Roshan came by my stand and kissed my crown to show it.

I hugged him and few have seen us making it a whisper around, but Aarav is glaring at me whole time. I saw my parents walk towards me and Ayush was there talking to Aarav, but those eyes fixed on me than him. Roshan held my hand tight, and I am losing my nuts while seeing my parents come towards us with ton of questions to spill. Was this a bad idea? Before they reach Ayush have taken the post and eyed both of us. He was about to open his mouth when I heard someone yell my name from stage. 

"AHANA!"
"Kris with k."

I hissed and saw him dancing on the stage and the DJ changed the song to party one making all stare him and where the fuck did this Aarav ran off? He was supposed to help me with guests and now he is nowhere to be seen. I speed walked to him and Roshan too helped me to get this shit out of stage. 

"Kris...fuck's sake you duffer."

I slapped his face, and he widened his eye to get back to earth in piece. He looked around and my parents were glaring at me few meters away then Nisha aunty came by to see her relative causing chaos. Why did he tell my name, and others have perfect rumor to create now.

"Oh my god! What is he doing here?"
"Siddharth. Where is he? Ladies and gentlemen present here please have your platter."

This isn't going the way I planned and on top of that Kris begin drunk here would make triple the problems. Roshan and Ayush picked him and walked to rooms at next floor and then came this Aarav again from nowhere. I wanted to punch his guts out and stood by the fountain watching him walk closer and closer then dump.

He fucking pushed me to the fountain. 
Siddharth pushed me to the fountain in front of everyone. I am totally drenched and my hair sticking to my face.

"My goodness."

I heard someone say then saw ma race to me and pulled my out just to Ayush and Roshan walking back in. I should never agree to this party at first and this asshole fucking pushed me inside the fountain.

"Your dress."

Drape saree was sexy but with water it will be see through. Roshan removed his coat and handed it to me. I thanked him and walked in with him. He placed his hand on my shoulder. Damn the water was cold enough to make me numb in seconds.

"You're shivering."
"It is fucking cold."

He turned the heater on, and I sat in front of it rubbing my hands together to form warmness is when his phone rang, and he excused himself. I removed the coat and looked for spare clothes but for my luck there is not even a robe here. I heard the door open and called out Roshan to ask for bath robes but no reply.

"Ro-you?"
"I must say that fall looked super real."
"Mother fucker."

He chuckled and stood by the door after pushing me in. People will think I slipped or did they see him push me inside the fucking fountain. Please turn me into matter so I won't create another mess like always. 

"Cold?"
"Cold your ass."
