When Mr.Rude Meets Ms.Love ✔

Chapter 9

Recap : Sharan stops Ishana from leaving - Ishana doubts Sharan

Ten days later
Ishana's POV

Today is my Mehendi function with Mr.Rude. Both Veena and Varna are competing among themselves to see who could deck me better but right now how I look is the least of my concern. In these ten days I couldn't decipher Sharan's real intention behind this marriage and it was bugging me too much. I am not even able to have a single conversation with him. Either he is at work or he is busy along with the others in the wedding preparations. Is he intentionally avoiding me? Why would he do that?

God I am worried about my future now.

"Ishudi, you are looking damn great, bhaiyya is very lucky" Varna said teasing me.

At her words I looked down at my dress. It was indeed a very nice dress, a blue lehenga with silver embroidery. It was a gift from uncle and he seems very happy from the day the wedding was announced. Like all this wasn't enough Sharan is behaving like he was very happy with it. God knows what is going on in his garbage bin. Well you know what I am talking about.

"If your thinking break is done then let's go. Everybody is waiting for you" Veena pulled me out of my thoughts.

We walked downstairs and I can see that there are a lot of people from my village as well. Uncle had invited them for me. While I was talking to some of them I noticed Sharan from the corner of my eyes. He is looking quite handsome in the sherwani that he is wearing but he is not looking at me at all. We are both made to sit on the stage which has been decorated.

He looks at me for a second but turns away immediately. What the hell? He doesn't even tell me why he wants to get married to me and now all this drama. Some girls start applying mehendi on my hand. I keep looking at him and he keeps looking at my mehendi.

I want to shout at him,'You idiot what is there in it that you are staring at it for so long? Look at me." Like that's not enough there is this cryptic smile playing at the corner of his lips. Veena and Varna start talking with me but for the first time I'm not interested in talking to them. I put a smile on my face and get lost in a world of my own.

The function is about to end and Uncle and the twins are busy talking to the guests. Just when I finally. I mean finally get up, Sharan drags me to the corner.

He pushes us both into the crook between the staircase and the wall and I lift my hands to save the mehendi on them. The place was quite cramped and he was standing pretty close to me.

"Sorry that I couldn't talk to you for the last few days. How are you Ms.Idiot?" he said in a teasing way. I never knew you could say this in a teasing way.

 "Why are you avoiding me? Are you scared to talk to me?" I was quite serious and he should be scared. I could kill him now.

"Of course. I am really scared of you."

"Why are you talking now then?"

"Now I'm not scared because your hands are filled with mehendi which means that you can't slap me." He shouldn't count on that because if he irritates me too much I just might.

"Very funny" I said dryly. 

"Are you prepared to be Mrs.Sharan Sharma?" he asked sarcastically.
