Arranged Marriage To Love

Chapter 10 - Revelations

Riya's POV

"Veer?!" I thought out loud.

I was shocked to see him here at my house. What was he doing here? Is he...? No it couldn't be. No. Oh my God! He can't be Rajveer, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Kapoor. No. He cant be.

At that time Mr. Kapoor said cheerfully,"Ah son. Your late. Everyone's been waiting for you guys to arrive. C'mon. C'mon in."

It was then proved that Veer the guy that I met at my Aunt's store is none other than Mr. Kapoor's eldest son, Rajveer.

Here it comes again. Looks like my stomach is a centre for butterflies. So many are flying that its wierd.

I move aside to let them all enter.

This whole time, I felt his eyes on me. It was making my heart beat at double rate.

I heard him say,"Good evening Mr. Sen and Mrs. Sen's." To my dad and my mom and grandma.

"Good evening dear. And please you dont have to call me Mrs. Sen, call me grandma. Like everyone else."Grandma said to Him and turned towards the other two kids and said,"even you too can call me grandma."

"Okay." They all answered respectfully.

"Kids, I m your father's friend, so you dont have to call me Mr. You can call me and Bhoomi as uncle and aunt. No worries. Right Bhoomi?" Dad said.

"Yes dears. Call as Aunt and uncle. We would like that." Mom said.

While everyone's talking, I felt a tug on my dress. I looked down to see a cute little princess.

"Didi, I wanna go to loo? Can you take me?" She asked in her cute innocent voice which I found adorable.

"Ofcourse. C'mon on, I'll take you." I said while giving her my hand.

She takes my hand and said,"First I have to tell bhaiya and then we can go. Okay didi?"

"Uhh. Yeah okay." I agreed but on inside I was sweating bullets.

Which brother was she talking about? Her mischievous one or serious one?

She pulls me towards the sitting area where everyone was having serious talk about Ruhi.

"Kishan, I know the last time we talked, I didn't mention anything about Tina being pregnant. You know after having 2 boys we always wanted a girl, a princess that we could spoil and a sister to my boys so that they can care for her and go protective over her but because of certain complications, our wish wasn't fullfilled. We really wanted a baby girl so we went to an adoption centre and adopted Ruhi when she was only few days old. Both of her parents died in car accident and her real parents family didn't want the burden of raising a girl. It was perfect for us, so we adopted her, gave her our love, our name and nurtured her. I don't want you to have any hard feelings for us or her more especially. We love her more than anything in the world." Mr. Kapoor said in his serious voice.

"My friend, I have always respected you for loving your family and handling business very well and now my respect has increased even more so than before." My dad said with a sincere smile on his face.

They both got up and hugged each other tearfully.

Just then Ruhi said,"Veer bhaiya?" making them all turn and look at us.

"Yes princess?" He replied in his serious voice which cracked a little bit. I understood his feelings. Even I was emotional at hearing this story.

"I m going loo with di." She said.

"Come right back to me then. Okay?" He orders softly. I was stunned to see such a change in him. His whole face changed as soon as she was talking to him. Turning from a serious, intimidating guy to a soft cuddly bear who loves his family the most.
