AgneeSakshi: Bound by the Holy Fire

Chapter 7: Just Engaged!

"Good morning!"
My phone blinked as soon as I woke up. She knows exactly when I wake up and always messages me first.

"Good morning to you too!" I smiled while texting back to her.

"BB..." A girl came inside my room shouting this and hugged me tightly.

Ok don't take it in a wrong way. She is my favorite cousin, Raima and BB is the short form for Big Brother!

Yeah, she is very crazy.

"Rai... How are you? When did you come back?" I asked breaking the hug.

"BB, I am awesome. I came back yesterday. Still a bit jetlagged. But since then I have been pestering everyone to bring me here." Raima is no doubt the smartest between all of us. She is a student of MIT, Boston and quite a rebel because she fought with her parents to be sent there as they didn't want her to go.

"Tell me everything about bhabhi... And I mean everything." She demanded sitting on my bed and crossing her arms on her chest.

"Just let me freshen up and I will tell you everything." Excusing myself, I went to the washroom.

I was applying cologne when I heard my phone ring.

Meenakshi is calling!

Oh no!

Raima!!!

My eyes widened and I practically ran out of the washroom and tried to snatch the phone from her hand but she stood on my bed and gave a devilish smile a she received the call and switched on the speaker.

"Hello." There came the calm voice of Meenakshi, oblivious to everything.

"Hello... Bhabhi. This is Raima. I am sure BB must not have told you anything about me. So I am his cousin." She said narrowing her eyes at me.

"Oh hi Raima. And no, your brother has told me a lot about you." She covered up for me and a small smile made its way on my face.

"Ok bhabhi... I know this is not true but only because you are saying... I will agree. So bhabhi... What do you think about BB?"

This question made me stop abruptly and there was silence on the other side.

"Hello... Bhabhi?? You there?"

"Hmm... He... He is good!" She said almost in a whisper and I could sense her nervousness.

"Who he?" Raima teased her again and I pictured her biting her lips.

"Your... Your brother." She said again in whisper.

"Ok bhabhi... How will you refer to him as after marriage?"

"Umm...A... Agneesh." This made Raima laugh.

"It's okay bhabhi. He is going to be your husband. You don't need. To be this nervous." Raima re questioned, "So you think BB is just good... Not the best?" And again I knew Meenakshi was blushing.

"It's not like... I didn't mean that!" She hurriedly clarified.

"So you do like him?" Raima nodded taking it a bit farther.

"I... I think I should go. Ask him to call me later. Bye."

"Ok Rai.. give me the phone now." I said a bit sternly because I know that if she will tease more Meenakshi will surely explode.

"Wait... Bhabhi. Alright no more teasing. Here talk to BB. He is waiting impatiently." She handed me the phone and left the room, "Thank me later BB!" Throwing a wink in my direction she ran off.
