Love Around the Corner

Chapter Three - Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai

Varun's P.O.V

Me, Zoya, Aditi and Sid were sitting together, watching TV. Zoya was sitting in my arms. These past few days have been my happiest. Maybe because I'm finally with my true soulmate. Zoya had been worrying about Sara and how she would feel. But I knew Sara wouldn't object. After all, there was nothing between us.

"So, what time are we leaving tomorrow?" Aditi asked.

"6am sharp. We can get home in time for lunch." Sid answered.

"Oh great! I better start packing. Sid, come help me?" Aditi got up. Sid followed her and they both went upstairs. My chance! I kissed Zoya on the neck and went upwards to her cheek.

"Varun."

"Hmm."

"Varun?"

"Hmm?"

"You're going to break up with Sara, right?" Zoya sat up and turned to me. The worry was apparent on her face.

"Of course jaan."

"If you don't want to-"

"Zoya." This time I turned to her.

"I love you. Now what kind of lover would I be if I loved you and had someone else as my girlfriend?" I raised my eyebrows. Zoya smiled and crawled back into my arms.

The next morning, we all left the beach house in Goa and arrived in Mumbai around 3pm. Sid dropped me off and left to drop Zoya and Aditi off. I went inside and closed the door. One of the maids took my luggage upstairs. I entered the living room to see Mom, Dad, Rohit, Jaanvi bhabi, Sara, Sara's parents, Arjun and Diya all sitting together. What?

"Beta, we have been waiting for you. Sit down." Dad stood up and smiled. I sat down in between Rohit and Mom, still confused. What the hell was going on?

"So the engagement date has been set for in a week. But where would you like it?" Dad asked Mr. Mehra.

"It would be best at our house and maybe the wedding can be at your house? What do you think, Varun?" Mr. Mehra asked. What?! Marriage?!

"Mr. Mehra-" I started.

"Arey beta, call me Aarav uncle." he chuckled.

"Aarav uncle, I don't really mind. But does it have to be in a week?" I asked worriedly. I needed time to tell Sara about Zoya.

Everyone started laughing.

"Hahah okay beta, we understand. How about the engagement will be in 2 days and the wedding in a week?" Aarav uncle grinned and winked. Argh!

"Great then it's settled. We'll see you in two days at your house." Dad stood up and shook hands with Aarav uncle. After all the greetings, Sara and her family left and I was banned from meeting Sara. What the hell is this? Now I can't tell her about Zoya! Once they left I stormed back to the living room.

"Argh! What the hell? Why couldn't you people tell me before fixing my marriage?" I screamed.

"Varun calm down! Don't you like her?" Rohit grabbed my shoulders. I tore out of his grip and sat down on the couch.

"I like her, yes but I don't love her!" is what I wanted to say but I kept silent. My phone vibrated and so I checked it.
