Crush fever

Hurt

The sangeeth ceremony was finally about to begin. Everyone was busy getting ready, but Karan was searching everywhere for Dhruthi. "Where has this girl gone? And she left her phone with me while practicing her dance," he thought to himself.

After a thorough search, Karan finally found Dhruthi helping the bride get ready. He decided it wasn't the right time to talk to her, so he sat down near the room, waiting for her to come out.

After a while, Dhruthi emerged from the room, and her eyes widened in surprise as she felt someone take her hand. She turned around to see Karan standing there, still holding her hand.
"Hey Dhruthi, Mom asked me to give this dress to you," Karan said, holding out a beautiful outfit. "She personally chose it for you. I thought of giving it to you for the reception, but this dress is perfect for your sangeeth performance. So, go get ready with this. What do you say?"

Dhruthi was still stunned by Karan's sudden gesture, and she didn't respond immediately. Karan called out to her again, "Dhruthi?"She finally came back to her senses, took the dress from Karan, and headed back to the room to get ready, still looking a bit dazed from the unexpected encounter.

Laughter and music filled the air as Dhruthi joined her cousins, her stunning appearance in Half Saree leaving everyone in awe. Karan, too, was struck by her beauty, his eyes fixed on her as he thought to himself, "She's no longer a kid." A strange, unfamiliar feeling stirred in his heart.

As the others praised Dhruthi's beauty, Karan remained silent, his gaze locked on hers. Dhruthi approached him, calling out, "Karan...?"Karan's response was hesitant, his words tumbling out in a daze, "Dhruthi, you're gorgeous... you're no longer a kid..." He trailed off, realizing what he had just said.

Dhruthi beamed with happiness at his words and asked, "Bava, take some pictures of me." Karan agreed, capturing her beauty through his lens until she was satisfied with each photo."Send those pictures to my aunty, and I'll thank her myself for choosing this dress after the wedding," Dhruthi exclaimed.

As Karan shared the photos with his mom, he found himself lost in Dhruthi's smile, staring at her pictures. Jeevan's voice broke the spell, "Come everyone, let's rock this sangeeth!"

Karan snapped back to reality, shared the photos, and joined the vibrant celebration.It was time for Dhruthi's performance her dance performance was amazing! Everyone watched her in awe as she twirled and spun across the stage. When Rohan joined in, their dance together was like a beautiful dream.

The crowd cheered and clapped, with Dhruthi's cousins shouting her name and dancing along.As the music changed, the other cousins jumped onto the stage, dancing to their favorite songs with wild moves. Dhruthi couldn't resist joining in on the fun. She laughed and spun around, her eyes shining with happiness.

But then, she noticed Karan standing alone beside the stage, watching the celebration with a smile. Dhruthi's heart skipped a beat. She rushed over to him, still dancing, and pulled him onto the stage. "Come on, Karan! Dance with us!" she exclaimed.Karan, who don't usually dance, couldn't say no to Dhruthi's infectious energy.

He let loose and danced with the group, his awkward moves making everyone laugh. Dhruthi danced around him, her eyes sparkling with joy, as they all celebrated together.After the sangeeth, everyone returned to their rooms to rest and freshen up. Dhruthi changed into something comfortable, knowing there was still time before the reception and wedding.

Meanwhile, the remaining cousins began teasing Karan. "Hey Karan, you danced!" Ajith exclaimed, chuckling.Karan hesitated, "Well, Dhruthi pulled me onto the stage. What could I do?"

Jeevan jumped in, "But we've asked you to dance with us countless times over the years. You never even moved a step!"The twins, Rithvik and Sathvik(other two cousins), exchanged a knowing glance. "Something's going on between them," they whispered in unison.
