HIS BRIDE

11] Growing Feelings

When you lose an
emotional attachment to
someone, you realise how
ordinary they are. It's your love
and your energy that makes
people seem so special.

“Look Krunal, we were searching for them everywhere and they are romancing here.” a voice came from the direction of the door.

“I think she also deserves the punishment like us.” another voice came.

Hearing the voice, Vidisha looked at the direction of the voice and saw Krunal and Pankhuri were watching them with a mischievous grin over their face.

Vidisha tapped Hardik's back but he didn't leave her and hugged her even tightly.

Without breaking the hug Hardik said, “Look bhai, I am hugging my wife not yours. Well I can hug your wife too because she is my bhabhi. But still I think when husband and wife are in the room you shouldn't enter before knocking the door.”

Vidisha separated herself from Hardik and went towards Pankhuri. Pankhuri pulled Vidisha behind her and said, “You should lock the door Harry. Now, you will live here for a week alone. Krunal is not going to accompany you.”

Hardik saw them with wide eyes and an open mouth. He was not believing what he just heard. It was the first time when Pankhuri was favouring Krunal in front of Hardik.

He came towards them and asked Krunal, “Kya jaadu kiya hai meri bhabhi pe.?” On which Krunal just faceplamed himself and signalled Pankhuri to explain him

Pankhuri:- Listen Harry, we are going to my place for a week. You both will be left alone. That is why you will stay here alone.

Harry:- a vata che, go go. We can live alone.

Krunal:- We are leaving now, idiot.

Saying so, everyone came back to the house and Pankhuri took Vidisha with her in her room for help in packing.

Whereas, Krunal sat on the couch in the living room and was looking at Hardik weirdly. He broke the silence by saying, “I never saw this kind of love in your eyes for Priya.”

“What love.?” asked Hardik cluelessly, Krunal's lips formed a teasing smile and he replied, “What, what love.?  You started to love Vidisha and why not.? She is perfect for you.”

Hardik's face was covered by a smile, he said, “I don't know whether she feels the same or not but I think I started to like her.”

When they were both talking, Hardik and Krunal noticed both the girls coming down the stairs.

Hardik's eyes are locked with Vidisha's dark brown ones. They shared an eye contact for a few minutes which didn't go unnoticed by Krunal and Pankhuri. They both cleared their throat bringing them back from the dreams.

The elder couple left the house, leaving the younger ones back at home. Hardik was continuously looking at Vidisha, not even blinking his eye.
