Miserable, at best

Shehry's POV

We were scheduled to meet the girl today.

I can't believe I'm going to be getting married soon! I tried so freaking hard to avoid it.

Challo, it was going to happen someday. Knowing my parents, they would trick me into it if they had to.

Mom described the girl to me. She didn't have to. I'll admit, I heard the entire conversation.

I'll say she's definitely something. I loved everything I heard about her.

"Shehry!" I heard someone yell.

I walked out of my room.

"Ya?" I asked.

"Get ready bro. Bhabi koh dekhna jana hai," Hussain said.

"Oh God! You just wait til you get married," I said.

"I can't wait!" He said.

"Toh phelha tum karlo nah," I said.

"Are yaar, woh Aria be manjhai toh na! I only saw her one time and I'm going crazy! Oh my God, I need help!" He said.

I laughed at him.

Yeh both zada pyar kartha hai us larki ko.

I got ready and we left.

We arrived a bit late, thanks to the traffic we were in.

As we got out of the car, I got nervous. Why? Even I don't know.

Let's see how things go.

We were greeted by her parents. I have to say based off what I saw, the house was amazing!

After a bit of talking and telling her parents what I do, my mom asked if they could bring her.

"Of course, Aria beta!" She said.

Me and Hussain looked at each other confused out of our minds.

"Ji?" She asked.

Yeh toh Hussain ki Aria hai. I could tell by the look on his face.

"Go and call her."

"I will,"she said.

She said her hi to us before leaving.

"Achi hai," I whispered to Hussain.

"Chup!" He said.

The girls came down and I was this close to screaming,"No way!''. I remembered that our parents were here, so I didn't.

Yeh? Iska saath meri shaddi? No! Never!

We were told to go out to the garden and get to know each other.

"Tum! Par tum kyu?" I asked.

She just gave a weak smile.

No comeback. Is something wrong?

"Sorry. I know that none of us want this but I've got no other choice,"she said.

From her tone, I knew she wasn't lying.

"Sirf, mai milatha tumha? Kisi aur ki zindgai barbaad kar lathi," I said.

"Ho gaya?!" She asked.

I was suprised by her change in attitude.

Something is definitely up here. She's not lying about anything and I know she's just as upset as I am about this.

"Sorry, didn't mean to raise my voice," she said.

Okay! Who are you? Where is the Vishikha I know?

We got called back inside and a date was set for the wedding.

I kept stealing glances at her, waiting for something but I just her giving a fake smile.

Challo, I'll just talk to Aria about it. You know, if Hussain is okay with me being near her.
