Jaipur

Yuvaan and yuvika entered the haveli and everyone gathered to welcome them, an elderly lady came and smiled at them.
Yuvaan went forward, bent down to touch her feets the lady blessed him. Yuvika mirrored his actions.

"Aao bachho, hum tumhara hi intezar kar rahe the" That old lady said with a genuine smile.

"Kese ho yuvaan?" She added

"Mai thik hu dadi, aap kesi hain?" He politely said.

"Mai bhi thik hu bachhe" She said and turned to yuvika "or beta tum.. " She was about to say something but yuvaan gently cut her off.

"Dadi she is yuvika, our family friend" Yuvaan introduced her.

Yuvika felt genuinely happy when yuvaan introduced her as his family.

"I know beta, tumhari dadi se baat huyi meri unhone btaya mujhe" She said.

Everyone started welcoming yuvaan, he took blessings from the elders and cousins of the house shared a warm hug.

Yuvika got nervous and awkward because there was no one whom she knows so she started fidgeting her fingers while looking down.

She looked up when she felt a warm hand on her shoulder, yuvaan was standing there he raised his brows as if asking her "what happened?"

She shook off her head understanding his gesture. Yuvaan sensed her nervousness, patted her shoulder gently.

"Don't be nervous, I am here ok" He said assuringly.

Yuvika nodded her head in response and they both left to the rooms to took some rest.

Yuvika and yuvaan enjoyed the wedding, yuvaan hadn't left her side not even for a minute so that she doesn't feel uncomfortable.

Now they were coming back from the jaipur, sitting in the car. It was 8 in the night. Yuvaan was driving and yuvika was sleeping peacefully in the passenger seat.

Suddenly the car came to a halt, their upper body jerked forward, she woke up from her sleep and looked at yuvaan in questioning gaze.

Yuvaan glanced at her and got down from the car without responding, yuvika quickly followed him.

Yuvaan inspected car for any sign of damage, then his gaze stopped at the tyre that were punctured, he saw few iron nails on the road and got the idea what had happened.

"Ab kya karein?" Yuvika said under her breath but yuvaan listened to it.

"Yaha aas paas to koi garage bhi ni h, koi hotel bhi ni dikhra, yha raat bhar rukna safe ni h bhot sunsaan road h. Let me think something" Yuvaan said to himself more than to her.

"Tum gaadi me betho, mai sochta hu kuch" He added.

"Mai yahi hu" Yuvika said nervously she was afraid of dark.

Yuvaan hasn't replied anything he started looking here and there for any kind of help.

"Waha pr ek light h, maybe waha koi hotel ho ya kuch or jisse humari help ho sake" Yuvika said spotting a light at a very long distance.

"Bhot dur h wo, waha tak kaise jayenge?" Yuvaan asked following her gaze.

"Udd kar" Yuvika taunted.

Yuvaan glared at her and she sheepishly smiled and said "obviously sir gaadi to khrb hogyi h to paidal hi jayenge na"

Yuvaan think for few seconds then nodded his head, he started walking ahead and yuvika started following him.
