"Anaya, get ready, your in laws are coming tonight to see you" Damini announces as soon as she enters Anaya's room startling her

"What, tonight?" She asks shutting the door of her wardrobe where she was rearranging her clothes

"Yes tonight and wear something good, your soon to be husband will be here too" She informs

Anaya replies in 'Okay', as if she has any other choice

"Lucky you are that they chose you for their son so don't do anything that embarrasses us, this proposal shouldn't slip from our hand" She points out

Anaya nods meekly and Damini walks out of the room

"Reyansh, be quick, we're leaving in half an hour" Sarika enters Reyansh's room, who just got back from office a while ago

"Is it necessary for me to go?" He asks boringly, sitting down on the bed

"Of course, since we're going to see your soon to be wife, so your presence is must" Sarika replies adjusting the pallu of her saree but when she gets no response from Reyansh, she focuses on him back

"What's wrong with you, Reyansh?" Sarika now asks worried

"Nothing" he shakes his head "I need to change then i'll join you downstairs" He says getting up

"Okay, Don't be late" She smiles and went out of his room, closing the door

Anaya gets ready into a black Anarkali suit with a matching dupatta, she wears silver dangle earrings, her long waist length jet black wavy hair is cascading down beautifully, she did minimal makeup

She hears a car horn that signals her that the guest has arrived. She peeks through the window but couldn't see them as they already went inside, her nervousness is at its peak plus she isn't happy about the situation as everything is against her wish

She waits for the next few minutes when finally her room door opens revealing Damini

"Come they've arrived" She says but Anaya keeps glued on her spot as if she is waiting for a miracle to stop this meeting but miracle happens with lucky people and she doesn't consider herself one of them

"Get up!" Damini glares at her and she stands up involuntarily "Don't let them know that you are not happy with this marriage, just behave well" She snaps

Anaya stay quiet and Damini leads her outside, they reaches in the living room and she greets the couple she met a few days ago

As soon as Reyansh hears her voice he looks up at her, his eyes scrutinizing her from head to toe

Damini makes Anaya sits on the sofa right in front of Reyansh and although her head is still down but he can see her face, she has that glow on her face that can catch anyone's attention

Following by his shoes, Anaya slowly lifts her head to see him and her gaze stops on him, he has worn a black trousers with black blazer over a white shirt, then her sparkling soft brown eyes met a pair of cold black ones. Just looking into them made a chill breeze through her that makes her shiver internally

The moment she notices him staring back at her, she quickly lowers her eyes feeling her heart thumping faster under her chest

Reyansh's gaze is stuck on her as hard expression is fixed on his face

"I know bhabi (sister-in-law) is so beautiful but stop staring like that, everyone is watching you" Ruhi whispers playfully, elbowing her brother and Reyansh quickly diverts his eyes from Anaya
