Neha's POV
I was so excited when I heard the car sound that my aunt and uncle returned. I rushed to the door but stopped hearing the voice and peeped through the window. To my horror its my mom's business partner in India and her son.
I ran back to Arjun. He was startled by my expression. Before he could ask we heard door bell sound.
"Arjun, go inside the room and hide. Please don't come out or make any noise. Don't ask me anything now. There is no time" he understood and went inside the room.
I opened the door
"What kind of dress are you wearing Neha. Even my maid don't wear such cheap dresses. What else can I expect when you live in your not so rich aunt's home" Mrs. Sinha started her drama even before she entered the house. I looked at my dress, I'm still wearing the dress given by Vimalamma, It is looking good for me.
"Please come in Mrs.Sinha . Hi Tarun (Mrs. Sinha's son )" I said
"Hi Neha" Tarun said
They both came in
"Please sit down" I said
"What? sit in this cheap furniture? I cant even stay single minute in this house (please do that , I thought ). Get your luggage, we are going" she said .
"Why ? To where?" I asked
"Your mom asked me to take you to Mrs.Bose 50th birthday party tonight and tomorrow you are coming with us to my home in Mumbai. You will stay there for a week" she said
"What? My mom didn't say anything to me. I don't want to attend any party or come to your home" I said
She glared at me and said "You are coming that's it. I don't have time to discuss with you"
I ignored her and called my mom. She ordered me to go with her right away. She just cut the call without hearing me.
Mrs.Sinha and Tarun smirked .
Tears welled up in my eyes. I asked them to wait while I get my luggage.
Mrs.Sinha said she will wait in the car. I started to go to my room. Tarun held my hand tightly and tried to hug me saying "Wow Neha, you are grown up, looking so sexy. I can't wait to spend some time with you" he winked at me
"Leave me idiot" I shouted
"Why are you shouting Neha" Mrs. Sinha yelled
"Nothing Mrs.Sinha, I want to go with you right now but Tarun said he wanted to get beautiful dress for you to wear in the party but forgot. He would like to go shopping with you right now. He is asking me to take time to pack my things and get dressed up for the party by evening 7 as he wants to select dress you and take you to the parlor by himself to make you look gorgeous" I said glaring at him
"Oh Tarun!That's so sweet of you. I know how much you love me. Lets go then, Anyway I hate to wait. Be ready by 7:00pm Neha" she said
"Its not over" saying that he left
I went inside the room and started to cry, I don't want to go with them. I felt hand on my shoulder, it's Arjun. I hugged him and cried. He hugged me back.
"Arjun I don't want to go with them" I cried
"I know, don't worry, I will do something" he consoled me
