--- Author's POV ---
(After Aadarsh and Shivika went upstairs)
"Ummm ... Mr and Mrs Bharadwaj we are really sorry for what Shivika told to Aadarsh some days before. We didn't know what she thought and said all those things. Please forgive her" Mr Joshi said joining his hands.
"Areyy what are you doing Mr Joshi , please don't do this. We liked Shivika a lot. When Aadarsh told about her wish we were also a bit surprised but we understood her point also. Marriage is a very big responsibility. Sometimes we only get frustrated in this relation even after so many years, then they are starting it all new. They will also have some fear in them. We don't have any problem with Shivika's wish" said Mohan
"Yes Joshi Anna , we liked her a lot. Also it's not like we will get muhurta now only. We need to prepare for everything so it will take time. And by the time marriage happens Shivika will be 25. Her wish also will be fulfilled" Gayathri said.
(muhurta - auspicious time to get married)
"Yes yes , that is also correct" Sarla said
By that time Saarika came down after getting ready. She didn't get the time to get ready as she was helping Shivika. So she was little late. As soon as she came in hall -
"Arey Saarika come here" said Sarla gesturing her to come and sit with them.
"Meet her. She is Saarika. Shivika's best friend and she is not less than my daughter" Sarla said.
"Namaste" Saarika said while folding her hands.
Everyone greeted her back but one person didn't and that was our Aakash Sharma ! yesss ....(another story loading... 🤭)
He was just looking at her, without blinking eyes. Saarika was not sure why he was looking at her like that but she also got a little tiny winy bit of crush on him. Obviously, he is good looking! and our Saarika as well !
Akshay and Keerthi started talking with Saarika. They got along well. Here Aaksah was not knowing what to do. He was kind of trying not to look at her but still did look. He got a instant connection but was not able to accept it.
"Saarika go and bring Shivika and Aadarsh downstairs, need to talk with them" Sarla said
"Okay Aunty" Saarika replied and got up to go , just then -
"Wait ! Can I also come ? I mean I'm getting bored here 🤷🏻♂️" Aakash asked.
Saarika just nodded and went forward. Aakash also followed her.
"Hi I'm Aakash Sharma , Aadarsh's best friend" Aakash said forwarded his hands for a handshake.
"Hi I'm Saarika Jha , Shivika's best friend" she said and reciprocated.
"Ummm shall we go now ?" Saarika said breaking the eye contact and hand shake.
"Ye-ah , sure" Aakash said they both came where Shivika and Aadarsh were present.
(After Shivika and Aadarsh came back downstairs)
Aadarsh was holding Shivika's hand so they both sat down together. Their parents were discussing about marriage dates and how to prepare and all. The parents stuff !
