Obscure Truth

22. Mehendi

"Chun Liya, Chun Liya
Tujhko Deewane Ne Chun Liya
Dil Toh Uda Uda Re Aasmano
Mein Badalon Ke Sang
Yeh Toh Machal Machal Ke Gaa Raha Hai
Sunn Nayi Si Dhun"

The couple woke up gasping on feeling cold water on their faces. Calming themselves for the minute,they looked at their surroundings and saw their friends standing with scowl on their faces and a water jug in their hands. It didn't took them a minute to understand that their friends threw water at them.

"Are you guys mad??" Avyaansh shouted at his friends when he saw cool shivering with cold. "Are you okay?" He suddenly changed his tone and asked Noor while rubbing his hands and pressing his palms against her cheeks to provide her the warmth.

"Oh romeo! Subah se sab dhund rahe hai tumlogo ko." Neil said equally frustrated because he too woke up in the same way when Rannvijay threw water at him.

"Toh call karke puchte na gadho, aise kon uthata hai. Look at her, she's shivering." Avyaansh said shouting at his friends.

"Oh lover boy, she's okay. Now let's go from here varna tumhare gharwale aajayenge upar tumhe dhundte dhundte." Ruhi said and asked everyone to move downstairs.

"Tum dono kaha chale gaye the? Har jagah dhund rahe the hum sab. Tumlogo ko koi khyaal hai ki tumhaari hi shaadi hai aur tum-" Sunidhi started shouting at them as soon as she saw them but was cooled off by Noor soon. "Shaant hojao rajdhani express. Yahi hai hum aur kyu tension lete ho aap!" Noor said. "Tum nahi samjhoge jab khud maa baap banoge tab pata chalega." Sundhi said and that's it no one had comeback for this brahmastra of hers. 'Har baat par maa baap bana deti hai meri maa but Noor ko bhi bolo uske bina kaha kuch hoga mai toh ready hu.' Avyaansh muttered under his breath. His friends who tend to listen this laughed quietly. "Badi jaldi hai toh mai help karu?" Neil whispered in his ear which made Avyaansh glare at his friends who stood there unaffected.

"Chalo ab jaldi jaldi apne rooms mein jaao and get ready shaam ko mehendi ka function hai. Aur ek aur baat iss function ke baad dulha dulhan shaadi tak nahi mil skte and ye dekhna tum dosto ka kaam hai ki vo naa mile varna tumhari bhi shaadiya nahi hogi." Naina said making Neil scared and the couple gasp. "NAHI!!" Neil and Avyaansh shouted together.

"Uska toh samajh aara ehy are you scared Neil?" Jaydeep asked Neil. "Why am I scared? Ye romeo jaakr usse milega hi aur meri shaadi ke chances kharab kar rha. Mai nahi lunga iski responsiblity." Neil said frantically. Noor blushed at Neil's comment but was worried about how will she manage if she doesn't meet Avyaansh.

"Nahi Avyaansh, everyone told us not to meet right then why aren't you understanding? Do hi din ki toh baat hai." Noor said to Avyaansh who was cribbing on phone how he wants to meet her.

"Exactly do din means 48 hours means 2880 minutes means 172800 seconds!!!! Kaise rahunga itni der tumhe bina dekhe??." Avyaansh said in a dramatic tone.

"Tum na faltu drama kar rahe ho, rakho phone mujhe ready hona hai." Saying this she hung up the honey being frustrated while he looked at the phone in disbelief. Did she really hung yup on me? Thought he.

"Aur jaa ladkiyo ke piche! Abhi agar mere sath hota na turant tujhse milta!" Neil, who was sitting beside him, said pulling his leg.

"Jaa na bey ch*tiye!" Saying this, Avyaansh pushed Neil out of the room.

"Dost dost naa raha!" Neil muttered after being pushed out of the room. Ruhi who was passing through the corridor looked at him strangely when he was talking to himself. "Ruuuhhhhiiiiii!!!" Neil shouted as soon as he saw Ruhi, but the latter ran towards the opposite direction as if her pants were on fire. "Sharma gayi shayad." Neil said blushing to himself and went towards his room smiling. Ruhi, on the other hand, shut the door of her room as soon as she entered the room. "Such a weirdo." Ruhi mumbled and remembered the time she was openly flirting with her on Nooraansh's engagement day.
