WEEK LATER


'Riddhima... Riddhima...' Suddenly Armaan voice break the silent around the house... It was 7am in the morning and Riddhima had been up from two hours as they are going to do Holi puja in 30mins... From last two three days, Riddhima had been busy helping Ananya with Holi preparation... Nikki also help whenever she get time as a day before her exam end and previous night they had been doing final preparation till late... An hour ago Riddhima had been trying to wake up Nikki and after that she wake up Armaan who slept again saying he would be up before the puja... Riddhima took out his white kurta and kept it nicely on the other side of bed which was empty so Armaan could get ready easily without disturbing Riddhima while she do the last minute preparation for the puja... Was it possible for Armaan to not to call Riddhima when she is doing work??? Guess no... Ananya and Nikki also got startled hearing Armaan sudden shout but Nikki giggle as she look confused Ananya and Riddhima exchanging looks... 'Jao jao Bhabs... Bhai koh kuch chahiyeh hoga... Waise bhi its not possible for bhai to not to call u...' Nikki tease Riddhima... 'Lekin maine toh uske kapde bhi nikal ke aayi hoon, ab kiya chahiyeh Armaan koh...' Riddhima said as she finished decorating puja thali... 'Dekho kiya chahiyeh, sab kaam hogaya ab Ridddhima...' Ananya said... Riddhima nodded keeping the thali and turn to move towards the room but stop seeing Armaan standing at the bottom of the stairs...'Aaah...' Riddhima let out a scream seeing him suddenly standing there, his face cover with COLORS... Nikki brush out laughing seeing Armaan while Ananya were shocked like Riddhima... Hearing Riddhima scream, Billy came out from his room and started to laugh seeing Armaan condition... 'Buddy, tujhe itni jaldi hai holi khelne ki tumne abhi se color laga diya...' Billy asked and Armaan just stood with his hands on his hips... 'Dad, aapko lagta hai main aise apne aapko color lagenge... Apne pyare bahu kam beti se poocho...' Armaan said... Riddhima who was shocked seeing Armaan cover with colors came back to sense, try to understand what Armaan just said... 'Mere beti ne kuch nehi kiya hai... Kyun bechari koh blame kar rahe ho...' Billy said moving towards Riddhima and putting his hand around her shoulder... 'Aur nehi toh kiya, Riddhima kitni der se meri saat hai... Woh kaise tujhe rang laga sakti hai Armaan...' Ananya defend Riddhima... 'Mom, Dad aap log Riddhima koh nehi jaante... Woh bohot shararati hai... Woh kyun nehi kar sakte...' Armaan said seeing Ananya and Billy taking side of Riddhima... All this while Nikki was laughing hearing them bickering with each other and how Ananya and Billy were defending Riddhima while Armaan says she put colors on his face... 'Main kyun tumhe rang lagaungi Armaan... Actually maine tumhare cheek pe tohda sa lagayi itni saari nehi...' Riddhima said...Damange were done as Riddhima said she did put little color on his face as she wants to put color first on him before anyone else could... 'Dekha, aapke laadli innocent bahu ne hi mujhe rang lagaya...' Armaan said...'Armaan, maine tohdasa lagaya... itna saara nehi...' Riddhima said... 'Accha, toh yeh tohdasa lagti hai tujhe Riddhima...' Armaan said pointing to his face... 'Armaan, main maanti hoon maine rang lagaya lekin itna saara nehi...Aur haan hoon main shararati lekin main itna saara rang abhi kyun lagaun... Whole day is left to put color on u... Aur mujhe apne room gandi nehi karni tujhe itna saara color laga ke...' Riddhima said... Now Ananya and Billy were also enjoying their little bickering with Nikki who was laughing her head out... 'Toh tum maante ho tum shararati ho... Aur koan kar sakti hai yeh sab...' Armaan said... 'Ek minute Armaan, Riddhima shararati hai toh tum aur Nikki bhi kuch kam nehi ho...' Billy said... 'Matlab aap kehna chaahte hai maine khud rang lagaya apne aapko...'Armaan asked... 'Maine aisa tohdi na kaha buddy... Nikki bhi...Ab mujhe samajh main aaya Nikki tumne apne bhai koh rang lagaya...' Billy said turning to look at Nikki who was laughing holding her stomach... Hearing Billy, Nikki stop laughing and everyone turn their heads towards her... Nikki who was kinda of laying on the couch sit straight catching her breath... 'Nikki jawab doh, tumne bhai koh rang lagaya...' Ananya asked...'Actually Mom... Bhabs put color on bhai... I mean tohdasa Bhabs ne lagayi aur itna saara maine... Itne kam rang se bhai ka kiya hota...'Nikki said... 'Niks, main tujhe chodunga nehi...' Armaan said moving towards her but Ananya stop Armaan... 'Baad main use dekhlena Armaan, abhi jaldi se tayyar hojao...Puja ka time ho raha hai aur mehmaan bhi aana shuru hojaenge...' Ananya said... Armaan gave Nikki a glare before leaving and Nikki make a naughty face to him... Puja was held inside the house but Holi would be playing outside in the garden where Riddhima had make arrangement for colors, drinks and food... Gupta's along with Atul, Anjali, Muskaan, Rahul, Sapna, Amit and Abhi have come to celebrate Holi with Malliks... Also Billy has invite their empolyees like always... Youngester were running after each other putting differents kinds of colors and water... Laughter around the place making the environment enjoyable for the elders watching their children enjoying the occasion... Armaan got hold of Nikki easily and shower her with water which was mixed with colors... Armaan was laughing seeing Nikki condition and was proud of himself for doing that to her naughty sister... 'Ab pura hogaya mera revenge... Mujhe rang lagane ki bohot shauk ti na tujhe... Ab dekho tum kaise uparse neeche tak rang se nahachuki hai...' Armaan said pinching Nikki cheeks... 'Ouch bhai... Maine aapko sirf chehre pe lagaya... Aapne mujhe puri tarah naha diya... Ab main bhi aapko paani daalke rahungi...' Nikki said... 'Really Niks... Pehle pakadke dekho...' Armaan said as he rubbed his both hand on Nikki face with lots of colors and run away... Another chasing were going on as gang were enjoying brother sister running to put color on each other... Riddhima who went to check foods and drinks were making her way back towards the gang saw Armaan and Nikki running around the garden... Different was this time, Armaan was running away from Nikki as a while ago it was the other way... Suddenly, Armaan came towards her and she was standing near a small pool of water from where everyone was collecting water... Armaan hide behind Riddhima while Nikki came towards them with colors on her hand... 'Hato Bhabs, aaj main bhai koh chodunga nehi...' Nikki said as Armaan keep moving Riddhima infront of him so Nikki couldn't put color on him... 'Niks, kiya huva hai...' Riddhima asked... 'Dekho Bhabs, bhai ne mujhe puri tarah nahadiya paani se... Aur woh bhi colors add karke...'Nikki said... 'Common Niks, aaj Holi hai... Bura na maano...' Riddhima said...'Really Bhabs... Tik hai, toh yeh lo...' saying this Nikki rubs her hands which was filled with colors on Riddhima cheeks... Both Nikki and Armaan brush out laughing Riddhima with shocked expression hanging her mouth open like a big 'O'... Armaan came out behind from Riddhima and stood near Nikki hi5ing her... 'Dekho Bhabs, u look so cute with that expression and more with those colors of ur face...'Nikki said... 'Riddhima toh hamesha cute hai...' Armaan said... 'Really now Bhai...Aur aapko kiya lagta hai, main aapko itni asaani se chodunga...' Nikki said... Before Armaan could understand or move, Nikki push him towards Riddhima who was standing like with a pout seeing how Brother Sister were making fun of her... As result, both fell in to the small pool of water, Riddhima under Armaan... Armaan try to control their balance but it was too late because Nikki push them without giving any warning... Riddhima close her eyes with the fear of hitting on the ground where else Armaan was holding Riddhima waist to balance but both fell on the water... Riddhima both hands were on Armaan kurta holding it tight and Armaan was lost in Riddhima beautiful face which was color by everyone... Both were so closed feeling each other breath, they were unaware of the surrounding as gang joins Nikki laughing to see both ArmaanRiddhima inside the water...
