Hi beautiful readers. this chapter is dedicated for all those secret and silent readers. Thanks once again for reading this story.
Note:
We call elders uncle or aunty respectively since calling by their name is rude. But now a days though it has become the other way😉.
Italics are Prakruthi's inner thoughts. Hope it makes better in understanding.
The car Prakruthi came in is that  image.

Prakruthi's POV:

After about an hour, at 8am sharp I heard a knock at my door. Who is it? Dear it's me, yes mom wait a second I am coming. My mom wore a nice shalwar suit looking ready to go somewhere. On her call a bell boy deposited my suitcase near us. She paid him and gave him leave.

Will you please open your suitcase and check dear, my mom hesitated. That can wait mom, now can you please explain me what exactly is happening here? I know you won't like what I am going to tell you now. I think I can handle it so please mom go ahead. I was suppose to freak but I am taking things pretty well. I don't know if it's a good or bad sign.

Dear I am sure you will enjoy all this. Meeting new people, partying and all is fun. Once in a while attending wedding ceremony is good for you.  She was scared that how my reaction is going to be. What wedding and whose? I questioned. May be little too loud. Didn't you see Abhishek earlier?

Oh god is it Abhishek's marriage? Is that girl I saw with him is his fiancé? No wonder he did not tell you while leaving Hyderabad. Why will he when a model like beauty waiting here with widespread arms to engulf in to a hug and give happiness in life. Which you can't give in this life so why to compare. I feel like someone is squeezing my heart.

Prakruthi, Prakruthi are you all right dear why are you looking pale? Nothing mom so so is it his ma-rr-image? Get a grip on your self he was never meant to be yours.

Where did you get that idea from? It's his sister's marriage. Since Abhishek's parents and your dad are best friends, Abhi's mom invited us all to this destination wedding personally.

Thank goodness now I am able to breath properly. No no don't smile, control your emotions mom might think that you gone crazy. My lips were about to twitch in to a smile, my brain has to be evil isn't it. so what if you saw the girl in his arms is his girlfriend? It hit like a bucket of cold water on my head.

So what are we suppose to do now mom? Nothing dear, please change in to some fitting  clothes and come to  breakfast hall, she pleaded.  Don't be angry Prakruthi, with that she started towards the door.

My mind was still trying to wrap everything I heard from mom. I slowly paced my suitcase on the small side table near the vanity and opened. My mouth must be hanging down and eyes wide open. What the hell this is not my bag. And I opened the second small bag which also happens to be misplaced.

Before I could open my mouth my mom cut me off. It's your bag I picked all those clothes for you so not to worry about fitting. Only until we are here please, once you are back we won't interfere in your dressing. My parents know I never disobey, Because they gave me freedom in every aspect. They never ordered me to do things since my childhood. And that's why I obey as a gratitude.

After 20 minutes I was ready wearing a perfectly fitted lemon yellow netted dress paired with white leggings with netted design just above the ankle. Front part was little high above the knees and back bit below the knees.
Instead of the regular bun I tied my hair in to a French knot. I was looking different in these clothes in a good way, I feel confident about my appearance. You dressed yourself like that on a purpose so don't loath on it now. Taking a deep breath I went to breakfast hall slipping on my nude color sandals with moderate heals.

Slowly on stepping in to the dinning hall I heard various voices, loud chatters and cutlery clinks. My heart is now racing fast. It's been only me my office and home since few years being in a party is making me feel nervous.

On spotting my parents I went to greet them. Good morning dad. Good morning Apple he wished me back. Go get some break fast for yourself dear. I was trying to avoid eye contact so that I don't feel that people are judging me.

In the process I went and bumped in to some one. I was rubbing my nose since the wall, wait no it can't be a wall must be some ones torso, it hit me very hard like a rock. When I looked up in to the eyes of the person I bumped in to my heart started to dance with excitement. Welcome to my sister's wedding miss Apple he said with a wide smile. Though the smile was amazing I narrowed my eyes shooting daggers at him. How dare he calls me with that stupid nick name when there are so many people around us.

Let me introduce you to my family with that I was taken to a group of people chatting real loud. As soon as seeing both of us they all stopped speaking at once. Well she is Miss. Prakruthi Rao, CEO of Rao constructions people call her as lady boss at office. At the same time my parents joined the group.

This is my mom Priya Anand and next to her is my Nani(maternal grandmother). Uncle Umesh my moms little brother and his wife Neelam like that he introduced me to 20 and odd people, by now I already forgot most of their names.

Prakruthi dear you have grown up, you look beautiful. I saw you when you were just 5 years I guess. Subhu( short form of Subha Rao, they call him subhu amongst friends) do you remember the way she cried when Abhi asked if she will marry him, asked Priya Aunty. Why don't I remember meeting them as a child? Yes we do said my mom grinning ear to ear as if remember those days.

I think she needs to have her breakfast first to bare with our family, Excuse me with that he took my hand and left that place while they all laughed at us. I was staring at him when he turned and asked what I would like to eat. There was a huge list. It was a multi cuisine buffet for breakfast. He also apologized for his mom bringing it up. Little did he know that I enjoyed what his my told about us. Don't you feel the same Abhi?

After having my breakfast I was again dragged by Abhishek to his gang, I mean his cousins that's how they call themselves gang of youngsters. This whole time I was just thinking about one person who was not present here at the moment.

I heard a high pitch shriek when a girl came to Abhishek and hugged him, it's the same girl I saw him with earlier. I have good news for you she said looking at Abhi when her eyes landed on me she stopped what ever she was about to say. By the way who is this lovely lady she enquires Abhi. Okey meet Miss. Prakruthi and Prakruthi this is my sweet sister and the bride miss. Arohi. The word sister sounded so good to my ears I flashed a smile and congratulated going out of my way. I like her a lot now. I will surely end up in hell for mistaking their brother and sister bond with my stupid jealousy. But she was looking like cat got her tongue. I don't understand why.

Abhishek was asking her about the good news when she was about to say another sweet voice interrupted us. Now it's Abhishek's turn to freak out. When I was happy that Arohi happened to be his sister there is another gorgeous girl. He lifted the new girl and whirled her in his arms, both where laughing happily as if seeing the parted lover after a very long time. I am ashamed of my inner feelings but this Abhishek is making me feel so many unknown things. Who the hell this girl could be????
