41 A MONTH OF CHANGES

THIRD-PERSON POV:

One month had passed since their wedding, and today marked their one-month anniversary. Arjun, as always, was busy with meetings, while Avni remained engrossed in her designs. However, she was also extremely nervous-her B.Sc. in Jewellery Designing results were going to be announced at 1 PM. It was already 11 in the morning, and the anticipation was making her anxious.

A lot has happened in the past month. Amar had moved to Delhi to focus on his business, leaving with a broken heart and something else... but that was a story for later. Bua-saa still stayed with them, constantly taking jabs at Avni whenever no one-especially Arjun-was around. However, Avni never retaliated.

Despite these tensions, Avni had grown closer to Aarav and Dev, mended things with Aarohi, and built a strong bond with Dadu-saa and her mother-in-law.

Feeling stressed about her results, Avni decided to go downstairs to clear her mind. As she settled in the hall, Bua-saa appeared.

"Avni, go make some orange juice for me," Bua-saa commanded.

Without hesitation, Avni opened her eyes and left for the kitchen. She returned within ten minutes, handing the glass to her.

"Bua-saa, shall I bring you anything else?" she asked politely.

"No, if I need something, I'll ask. And stop pretending to be so good in front of me," Bua-saa sneered.

Avni's voice wavered as she responded, "Bua-saa, why are you saying this?"

Before Bua-saa could reply, Dev entered the hall.

"Avni Bhabhi, you're here. Aarohi Baisa is looking for you," Dev informed her.

"Ji, Dev," Avni said and immediately left.

She soon reached Aarohi's room, where the two sat together, chatting and snacking while enjoying a movie.

Meanwhile...

Arjun sat in his office, focused on an important deal when a sudden knock broke his concentration.

"Arjun, how is Avni? Is she nervous? Oh, who am I kidding? She must be a wreck right now!" Shekhar exclaimed, entering the cabin.

Arjun didn't look up. "Why would she be nervous?" he asked, still scanning through his file.

Shekhar's jaw dropped. "Don't tell me you forgot what day it is today?"

Arjun frowned. "Shekhar, whatever it is, I'm not getting your point."

"Today is the announcement of her RESULTS!" Shekhar emphasized the last word.

Arjun's head snapped up. "WHAT?!"

Shekhar crossed his arms. "Don't tell me you actually forgot."

Arjun let out a frustrated sigh. "I did." Realizing his mistake, he immediately started wrapping up his work. "When will it be announced?"

"In half an hour. Drive safe," Shekhar reminded him as they stepped into the elevator.

Arjun smirked sarcastically. "Yeah, yeah, don't worry."

On the way home, he stopped at a florist and picked up a bouquet of lilies, knowing how much Avni adored them. She always appreciated any flowers he brought, but the way her face lit up at lilies made his heart race.

ARJUN'S POV:

A whole month had passed, yet I barely realized it. The last few weeks have been exhausting-handling business, family, and the relentless media that wouldn't stop prying into my personal life. I still don't understand why people are so obsessed with me.
