Author's pov

Aaryaant is in a meeting with delegates in a restaurant however he's not able to concentrate. All he's doing is just thinking about her. He wants to end this meeting as soon as possible so that he can stare at her.

Duh! Her picture in his phone which he sneakily clicked when she was sleeping in his arms.

Suddenly his eyes caught something or rather say someone, he immediately cancelled his meeting and marched towards them. He stood behind them and cleared his throat to gain their attention. The girl and the boy turned only to see Aaryant standing there with shock, accusing and angry eyes.

"Care to explain" he said gritting his teeth.

"bhaiyaah aap!" Aavyaan's eyes pooped out of sockets

"Calm down AARYAANT!..." the girl sitting beside Aavyaan spoke calmly. And he in a heartbeat calmed down.

Yes the boy is Aavyaan and the girl is Vanya!

He sat on the only seat left and raised his brows to Aavyaan demanding explanation.

"Bhaiyaah ca" he was about to request Aaryaant but was cut off in between as according to aaryaant, Vanya in her sweet melodious voice asked aaryaant to give them just five minutes and then whatever he'll ask they'll answer him without a second delay. And he reluctantly nodded and went out from there.

After exact five minutes he cam back with repository of questions.

"spill out" aaryaant demanded.

"Bhaiyaah actually................I love vani" he confessed.

"Hm I know...agee bolo" aaryaant said nonchalantly.

And they were shocked as hell. How on earth does he know?

"Guys relax and Aavyaan I am your brother okay........I saw you admiring her and also caught you when you were staring at her picture and when I asked, you diverted the topic. So I thought to give you some needed time but seems like I couldn't be a responsible and a good brother that you're not able to share your things with me " he disappointedly said.

No Bhaiyaah it's not like you're thinking...
It's just I thought I would first aske Vanu di about vani's feeling and if she doesn't love me back I would be shattered and I know you can't see me being devdas. So I thought to confront vani but before that I need to know her feelings so I approached vanu dii" he explained.

" ohk I understand but vanu...ahh I mean Vanya how will you know her feelings" aaryaant first said to Aavyaan and then to vanya.

A slight smile came on her lips which no one can see but our Aaryaant is a good observer. He notices her every action and reaction as if it's the only work left.

"Ahh I have a plan...avi just tell me when are you meeting her again?" Vanya said and Aaryaant made a cranky face not because Vanya called Aavyaan avi but because she didn't for once called him by names.

"Day after tomorrow"he answered.

"Ohk I hope you guys are frank enough with each other to share little things of your personal lives ?" Vanya said expecting him to nod in yes.

"offcourse vanu dii we're soo frank and comfortable with each other infact more than that" avi exclaimed loudly.

"Ohk ohk" Vanya and aaryaant both chuckled.

"So....! tell her that aaryaant arranged a contract marriage for you but you don't want to marry just for the sake of business." Vanya said.

"I would never do that ever in my life" aaryaant stated.

"I know you would never" Vanya said with a little smile on her face looking at him. Trying to assure him by eyes and telling him to trust her enough.

Their eye contact didn't went unnoticed by Aavyaan. He saw the same spark in aaryaant's eyes as his when he talks to vani.
He internally grinned knowing what's coming.

"He just has to share with her that you arranged a contract marriage for him and he don't really want to.... that's it...Aaryaant you just relax you don't need to arrange anything okay.." she assured him by caressing his hand on the wooden table.

And his heart, body, mind, everything fluttered!

He nodded with a small smile also a little tinge of blush on his cheeks which again didn't went unnoticed by avi!

"Ohk then we'll meet day after tomorrow after the meeting of yours......see you later" they bid each other goodbye promising to meet soon.

The brothers directly went to their respective works from the restaurant. At night they had their dinner while chit chatting or rather say Aryan bickering with Ariv and then went to their own rooms. However Aavyaan went to aaryaant's room. He knocked and went in after getting permitted. He saw his brother engrossed in his laptop and some files beside him.

"Bhaiyaah are you free?" avi asked.

"Yes avi I'm always free for family " Aaryaant replied without looking up at him.

"Does family include vanu dii too?" avi asked straight away. Aaryaant immediately looked up to see his younger brother smiling at him. Avi noticed his every action and reaction! How he's trying to hide his smile, his excitement, his happiness just by hearing her name! But he immediately came to that poker face of his again.

Avi understood that his elder brother is deeply in love.

"If she's my princess's sister then yes she's included too" he answered.

"Bhaiyaah can I ask you something you'll honestly reply?" avi asked.

"Depends upon the question avi!.....anyways go on" aaryaant said.

"Do you love vanu dii?"avi asked. Aaryaant was caught off-guard. He knows there's no backout now. Silence prevailed. After a brief time he questioned back

"What am I supposed to say? If I say no you'll come to know!"

"Bhaiyaah I know that you love vanu di it's just I want to hear this from you but it's fine if you're not comfortable with it" avi said sadly and was about to nove out but halted as he heard his bhaiyaah's voice.

"Yesssss aviiiii I am madly, deeply, weakly, sickly, crazyil in love with her" aaryaant shouted happily. But in an instant his expressions changed from excited to sad.

"Bhaiyaah I knew it.....I love you soo much" avi ran and hugged him tightly. He's happy for his brother.

"Bhaiyaah?" he shook him by shoulders seeing him not hugging him back but just patting his head.

"Avi I don't know whether she does feel for me or not... it is only from my side I don't know about her side." aaryaant said with a serious face.

"Bhaiyaah we'll get to know in the meantime while we plan to give a kick to my love story" avi assured him.

'Hee Mahadev I want to see my brother happy, give him his happiness. He was always there for us but now I want someone for him!' avi silently prayed for his brother.

"I think you should sleep now it's already midnight" avi said.

"Yes you too sleep don't stare at her pictures for soo long okay..." Aaryaant teased avi making him go all red.

"Goodnight" avi said and ran away making aaryaant laugh.
