On the bustling roads of mansarovar. In midst of the traffic jam 2 girls stuck in the auto rickshaw were caught where one was complaining and other was listening to her rants as if they were the most interesting stuff in her life.
"Samm listen I know it's kinda weird for me to tell you- ughh these horns bhay please shut up"
Nandini the girl ranting was wearing a tank top and jeans with here dangles and hair in a ponytail. Her black eyes as always completing her beauty with some eyeliner that she applied last minute.
"Please dont tell me that you said yes to that rishta" Samaira the girl wearing a kurta set said being a little shocked and restless. Her decision of keeping her hair perfectly braided was definitely appealing with the kajal that adored her brown eyes.
"Listen you remember the gamer guy right? I kinda said yes to mom about him. But ok listen you need to understand see I am not desperate it's just he's soo nice to me and he makes me forget the sigma in me" Nandini spatted everything out making samaira all stressed upon her best friend's decision.
Samaira sighed and gave her a look "Seriously you are getting married to him?"
"Yes, why? Oh cmon sam dont be such a bore he's so fun to be around"
"Is fun all it takes for a marriage? "
"Sometimes it does"
Samaira dived her way back to the time when she used to imagine how her married life would be. She would lie if she said that she didn't imagine all that fun, but now if she's questioned about the type of marriage she wants she'll go numb over the thought of being so close to a man for her entire life.
It's not that something so bad happened to her I mean so many people, or should we say girls go through this, right?
She came out of her thoughts as the auto wale bhaiya said "madam chhuta nahi hai"
Nandini, who was about to give him a piece of lecture stopped and happily let him keep the change.
"Tune usse kuch nahi sunaya? Are you ok nandu? "
"Yk i felt it when geet said _mujhe aaj kal kisi cheez ka bura nahi lagta kyunki meri shadi hone wali hai_" Nandini smiled as she saw samaira eye rolling and going inside her house.
Nandini ran inside and found samaira's dad Mr. Singhania sitting on the sofa. As she saw him she rushed to him and shook hands with him as if he was her long lost best friend.
"Singhania sahab aapki almost beti ki shadi fix hogyi yar thoda celebration to banta hai na ab mere ghar wale to karne se rahe atleast aap apni beti ko to samjhayein. Bilkul khush nahi lagri meri shadi se wo"
Mr. Singhania patted her back and said "Wo kaunsa teri saas hai jo usse khush hona chahiye, hmm? Acha ye wahi malhotras ka beta hai kya? "
"Yes sir wahi hai. Unka chhota ladka hai i mean he have an older brother too but idk he's not married"
"You know nandu beta sometimes I think samaira ki shadi mujhe tere sath sath karwa deni chahiye" He smiled.
She laughed off and then saw a glimpse of hope in his eyes "For real uncle? I mean why not? Samaira is like my sister just find her a good boy and get her married. Shayad a partner can help her heal."
"So nandini ji how's this jethji of yours" He said with a smirk on his face as if he decided the names of his grandchildren too.
"Ishaan Malhotra? Seriously uncle? "
Ishaan Malhotra
The name that rang in Samaira's ears as she came from the kitchen.
"Wait you told me you were getting married to aaditya Malhotra haina? Now who is ishaan nandu? "
Nandini looked at her an nervously chucked "He's my elder brother in law. "
Samaira scanned the whole situation going on here "kya pulao paka rahe hai papa meri sakhi ke sath? "
"Nothing beta come sit with us" He said with a calm expression on his face.
The vision got blurry as we see the three of them talking where the duo was laughing and Samaira was just smiling trying to be as happy as she could.

"Bro please thoda jaldi chala mom's gonna kill us"
"Aadi i am 2 years old-"
"Haa naa bhrata shree please just go fast mom just said she has some good news which rarely happens"
"Will you shut up and let me drive!"
Aaditya shuts himself down seeing the anger in his elder brother, Ishaan's eyes. He cussed him in his mind and patiently waited for them to reach their mansion for the good news their mom was dying for.
Some fair minutes later they reached their big mansion only to find all the family members including their chacha chachi mom dad and dadaji present in the living house.
"Oh my god what kind of storm struck that you all are here"
"Toofan to beta ab uss ladki ki zindagi mei hai" Spoke chachaji as everybody laughed off
What got Ishaan's attention was 'ladki'. Without any other thoughts he knew what they all meant and got immediately happy "kaun hai wo hoor ki pari maa?" He asked with a pout on his face.
"Oh wahi singhals ki ek lauti beti, nandini." Dadaji told Ishaan as he smiled.
Aditya who was all confused by now got their point as they said nandini. She accepted his proposal? After just one meet? How was that possible?
"Nahi nahi nahi aap log mazak karre ho mere sath. Wo ceo aur mere liye haa karegi aisa kaise" He started to laugh awkwardly showing his nervousness which was at its peak.
His mother smiled and told him how she got a call from Mr. Singhal telling about their daughter's interest in the marriage.
Aditya ran all over his house telling everybody that he's getting married. Everybody knew he was on cloud nine at this point. Seeing him happy made everybody extra happy. While dadaji went to Ishaan whispering something to him
"Beta you are older than him why don't you take marriage into consideration"
"Dadu I've always told you I cannot risk somebody's life. If dad and chachu were not involved in their business I would have happily married but-"
"But what ishu? You always make up this excuse but you are never willing to actually do anything about shutting the mafia business down. What about that hmm?"
"Dadu I tried but I just"
"You better find yourself a wife Ishu."
