Arranged Marriage To Love

Chapter 8 - Kapoor's

Riya's POV

I woke up with one thought in mind. Kapoor's. Today is the day. They are coming to our house in the evening.

I was excited about it. I don't even know why.

I did my daily routine but decided to wear the dress chosen for this dinner an hour before they come. So here I was wearing my home clothes i.e sweatpants and baggy shirt.(Dont hate me for it. I love these clothes if you don't I cant do anything about it.)

I went out to see my mom and dad were having morning tea with my grand mother. My sister and my brother being the lazy people they are, are still sleeping. I went and greeted them.

"Good morning everyone!" I said.

"Good morning child!" My grandma said.

"Good morning dear." My parents said.

"Grandma, how was your trip to Rajasthan?" I asked.

"Good. I brought you all presents." She said.

"Mummy ji(mother-in-law), you didn't have to." Mom said.

"Mother, please stop spoiling my children." Dad said in his serious voice.

"Nonsense. I love my grand children. So ofcourse I'll spoil them." Grandma said.

While she said that, she smiled at me.

"Come to my room later and collect all the gifts."

"Grandma!!!" Harsh and Khushi shouts and runs towards her.

"Good morning children. How are you this morning?" Grandma asked.

"I'm good." They both answered with a big smile.

We all went back to our routines.

*****Time skip*****

In late afternoon, everyone was busy in doing their assigned work. Even Harsh pitched in to do some work.(I guess he only did that so he doesn't get scolded by dad.)

An hour before the guests are supposed to arrive, Khushi finished her work and went to our room to get ready. Does it really take an hour to get ready? That too for a simple dinner. I guess it does for her. I mentally shrug. I don't care.

Sometime later.

I was cooking the desert for today's dinner menu when I heard Khushi shout,"di C'mon, you have to get ready."

I was about to tell her that I'm busy cooking but mom stops me and tells me to go and that she will do the rest of the work.

I smiled in thanks and left.

As soon as I entered my room, I was given the clothes that I have to wear for dinner by Khushi. God bless her. She does have a great choice in clothes.

It was a pink long kurti with black leggings.(pic on the side or up :))

I changed into it.

"Looking good di." Khushi said.

"Thank you Khushi. Don't think I'll let you do my makeup." I said.

"But di-" She tries to say something.

"No khushi." I said using my 'I-m-your-big-sister-&-you-have-to-listen-to-me' voice.

She pouts. I try to ignore that expression but I fail.

"Okay fine. You can do my hair but no make up. Now stop pouting." I said.

"Okay." She agrees happily and starts working on my hair.
