The Call of Destiny - AdiYa FF

Chapter 61: Marital Bliss

"Finally! Feels back home!"

Arjun said, standing in front of their Mumbai home's door, while he looked for the key. Pooja added, "Seriously! I guess Mumbai has become more of our home now."

"Seriously! Naani is the only person missing here. Otherwise, Mumbai has become our Delhi now." Aditya said, while resting one foot on the wall, while Pooja was opening their flat's door.

Arjun opened the door, and looked at Zoya, "By the way, for your kind information, Bhaabhi!" Zoya smiled hearing Arjun stressing on Bhaabhi, as it was taking him a hard time to get used to that terminology.

"Please don't go to your flat as you used to. Hooda House welcomes you hereafter, where Adi Bhai welcomes you with open arms, and I with all my heart!" Arjun said in a dramatic tone, while Zoya laughed hearing it, and looked at Aditya, who too chuckled, hearing it, and looked at Zoya lovingly.

"Please wait, while I go get aarti ki thali. At least, I have learned all that from the no. of TV shows I watched!"

Arjun said and rushed inside, while Pooja said with a puppy face, as she came to Zoya, "So that means, I am all alone hereafter in this huge flat?"

Aditya came near them and asked Pooja, with raised eyebrows, "So? You want me to leave my wife to stay with you and stay a bachelor again?"

"I don't care what you do!" Pooja stared at him, while she side-hugged Zoya, "I will be missing my Chanchan a lot now!"

"You only have one option, then!" Aditya said dragging Zoya near him, and putting his arm over her shoulder, "Get married to my brother soon and shift here. That's your Option A, B, C and D. What say, Zoya?"

"Yup! Seems a good plan!" Zoya said, while Arjun came to the door hearing it all, "I have been telling the same to her. Who listens, Bhai?"

Just then Arjun returned, dramatically cradling a fully-decked thali, "See? I told you—TV serials are educational!"

Pooja laughed as she said, "Alexa, play "Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi...""

Aditya chuckled, "Ajju, you should have probably tried auditioning for TV shows that engineering. This suits you better!"

"Yeah, after all, he has his Meena Kumari Mummy's genes too, yeah?" Pooja said and giggled with Zoya, while Arjun snorted, "Very funny!" He had the diya, kumkum, rice lota, and even rose petals neatly set up. Turning to Pooja with a cheeky grin, he said, "Come on, Miss I'll-miss-Chanchan, do the honors. After all, you're practically going to be a Hooda soon. Welcome your Jeth and Jethani !"

Pooja rolled her eyes but blushed a little, taking the aarti and then the kumkum and applying a gentle tilak to Aditya's forehead, then to Zoya's. "Welcome home, love birds!"

Pooja placed the rice lota on the floor and another thali with alta paste, "Now, gently push this with your foot and walk in."

Zoya gave a small nod and nudged the lota ahead with her right foot. Then she stepped into the steel plate with her alta-dipped feet, leaving red prints as she walked into the house—into their new life, while Aditya followed her, as his eyes didn't move off her the entire time.

"Sorry Bhaabhi, I don't know anything else after this..." Arjun said, while Pooja continued, "Because they don't anything in the show after this. Right, Arjun?"

"Stop teasing him a lot!" Zoya said, as she added, "He has done this much for us. That itself means a lot to me. Thank you, Arjun!"

Arjun smiled, while he stared at Pooja, "See, this is called showing gratitude. Learn something from your would-be co-sister."
