Everything was going well.

"Listen, everyone. Akshara loves Abhimanyu, so we are getting them married," Mimi said at the dining table.

Everyone was shocked by this statement, but it pinched Aarohi the most.

"Mimi, what are you saying? Abhimanyu Birla betrayed our Aaru, and you want Akshara to marry him?" Kairav said.

"Yes, Maa, how can you forget Aaru's pain so easily?" Bada Papa said.

"I can't forget Aaru's pain, but see Akshara's happiness. She loves Abhimanyu, and he loves her," Mimi said.

They all looked towards Aaru, who was looking down and having her food quietly, not wanting to engage in the argument.

"Aaru, are you okay with this?" Kairav asked.

"Yes, bhaiya, I am totally fine. Akshu loves Abhimanyu, and Abhimanyu loves Akshu. That's perfect," she said, looking down only.

From the Goenka family, it was a yes, but Harshvardhan Birla and Mahima Birla were totally against this marriage.

"Maa, Akshu agreed to my proposal. She also loves me," Abhimanyu said happily.

That's great, Abhi. I am really happy for you.

"You can't marry Akshara Goenka. She is not a correct choice for you," Abhimanyu Harshvardhan said while coming.

"But sir, I won't do something as per your wish."

"Abhimanyu, I also totally agree with Harsh that Akshara isn't a correct choice for you."

"I love her, Taiji, please."

Here, Harsh and Mahima were not ready for the marriage, but they loved Abhimanyu a lot. So, for him, they agreed to the marriage.

"Ok, Abhimanyu, we will talk to Manish Ji for the marriage," Harsh said.

They all went to the Goenka house. The house was beautifully decorated for them to welcome; dishes were on the table.

"Come, Harsh Ji, come."

"Ji, Manish Ji."

The Birlas entered the Goenka mansion. They all talked about Akshu and Abhi's marriage. Abhi and Akshu were very happy and were blushing.

"Manish Ji, where is Aarohi?" Manjari inquired.

"Actually, aunty, she has gone to the hospital," Akshara answered.

"So, what will she do? Dance happily here seeing her love marrying her sister," Harsh whispers, only Mahima could hear.

Everything went well. Abhimanyu and Akshara's engagement was next week. Everything was going perfectly, just perfect. But Aaru's heart was breaking every time seeing the preparations. She remembered her time and saw that Mimi showed no interest at that time, and now she is doing all the preparations. Aryan was living at the Goenka house. Aryan saw Aarohi broken.

"I know Aaru, you must be thinking, why didn't Mimi show any interest at that time?"

"Yes, Aryan, I did. I made such a mistake years back that she hates me now so much."

"Aaru, shut up. You didn't do anything. It was only Akshara's mistake. She used your name, and still, you believe it was your mistake."

"But what should I do? She is only seeing my mistake and not Akshu's."

"Aaru, Mimi thinks you did that, but it was Akshara who did that. It is quite brave of you for forgiving Akshara."

"Thank you, Aryan. Ok, now I need to go to the hospital."

Aaru was in a hurry, and here Abhimanyu was entering the house. They both bumped into each other.

Abhimanyu held Aarohi by the waist, and they both looked into each other's eyes, their eyes locked for a couple of minutes. Aarohi stood properly.

"Can't you stand properly, Abhimanyu?"

"You could have also walked properly so that we both wouldn't collide. By the way, where are you going?"

"I am going to the hospital, Dr. Abhimanyu. I am working."

"I am also a doctor and working. So, what's your reason, Aarohi?"

"Okay, I have important patients to see."

"Oh, Dr. Aarohi, you forgot that you work under my team, so you don't have any patients to attend."

"Dr. Abhimanyu..."

"Wait, I thought we were good friends, but no, you still call me Dr. Abhimanyu. You are my best friend, so today you, me, Akshara, and Aryan are going for shopping as Akshu told me."

"What? No, I am not coming."

"You need to come."

"Yes, Aaru, you are also coming," Akshara said from behind.

They all went for shopping, but Aarohi was not interested at all.

Akshara was choosing dresses for herself, and Aarohi was just observing her.

"Abhi, how is this one?" Akshara asked.

"You buy anything, it will look great on you," Abhimanyu said.

Akshara selected three to four very expensive lehengas.

"Akshara, why are you taking such an expensive lehenga?" Aarohi said with a little shocked look.

"Aaru, it's my engagement, do I need to look the best?"

"Yes, Akshu, I know that it's your engagement, you need to look the best, but for a single-day function, we can have expensive but not too much," Aarohi said sternly.

"See, Abhi, I told you Aaru is jealous of me," Aarohi was shocked hearing this statement.

"No, Akshu, I think Aarohi is correct. A single dress which you will wear once, why take that much expensive dress," Abhimanyu claimed, raising Akshara's anger.

"Ok then, we will have some simple dress only."

"Akshu, we aren't saying that you need to wear simple, but..."

"No problem, Aaru, leave it," Akshara said.

Then Aaru and Akshu went to try their dresses.

Both Aaru and Akshu came. Aaru was wearing a royal blue lehenga, and Akshara was wearing a light blue lehenga.

They both were looking extremely hot and gorgeous. Abhimanyu was only looking at Aarohi and didn't even notice Akshara.

"Abhi, now I am looking," Akshara questioned.

"Beautiful," Abhi said, looking at Aarohi.

"Thank you," Akshara replied, bringing Abhimanyu back to his senses.

"Why am I thinking about Aarohi, but she is looking so beautiful?" Abhimanyu's mind stated.

A person kept his leg on Aarohi's lehenga and didn't notice. Abhimanyu noticed that Aarohi was going further because of the stuck lehenga. Aarohi was about to fall, but Abhimanyu held her by the waist, giving shivers to her body. Abhimanyu's hand was on her bare waist, giving shivers through Aarohi's spine. They both looked into each other's eyes and were lost there. The eye lock was broken by Aryan's fake coughing. They came back to reality, feeling awkward. They all went home after shopping.
