Hrudayam

Wedding in the process...

Siya's pov.

"Dad who's coming?" I asked.

"My friends, can you prepare some snacks and tea for them...In the meantime, I am going out to buy some groceries. I will be back soon." He waved.

"Okay, Dad," I replied.

I went to the kitchen and made some homemade Indian snacks and tea. Soon dad entered the kitchen and helped me to set the snacks on the table. A few minutes later the doorbell rang. "Dear, why don't you in the room and get ready to meet them."

"Okay dad," I said with a smile and went to my room.

"....yes, let me call her...Siya! Please come dear."

"Namaste...Yash Uncle...namaste Seth uncle. How are you?" I greeted them with a smile.

"I am good, dear. How are you?" Yash uncle smiled.

"I am good too." I smiled softly and sat next to my dad. My eyes searched for Adi, I wondered where he was...

"Adi is at home, dear." Yash uncle said interrupting my thoughts.

'Did I say that out loud?' My cheeks flushed.

"I—

"Don't worry dear! I scolded him yesterday for leaving the town in such haste and now he's following my orders like an obedient son!" He laughed and my dad joined him.

"Although I wondered why he left like that?" Uncle Seth asked while sipping the hot ginger tea.

'Great!'

"Oh, I don't know." Yash uncle shrugged.

"Kids these days!" My dad said.

"Dad, I will be inside if you need anything just call me."

"Okay, dear." Dad nodded.

Before I could leave to my room Yash uncle called my name.

"Siya...can I have a word with you?"

"Sure." I smiled and led him to the backyard.

"Beta...-don't take it otherwise...I know how my son feels about you. I wouldn't beat around the bush...so here it goes...will you marry my son?!" He asked me.

"Did you talk to my dad?" I asked hesitantly.

"No, I wanted to ask you first, it's your decision to make who you want to spend your life with. And also my son didn't send me here. In fact, he doesn't even know about this...but I am sure he loves you, dear.—So what's your answer?" Yash replied.

'What are you thinking Siya?! Say it already!'

"I am ready if he is."

Aditya's pov

"Why do you want me to wear...this!?"

"Because we are going for puja in Verma's house. Now hush and get ready!" He ordered.

I have promised to do whatever he asks to. So without wasting any time I got ready and joined him in the car.

"Why are you looking so chirpy?" I asked raising my brow.

"I am always chirpy!" He replied.

"Okay?" I replied confusedly at his response.

At last, we reached Verma- uncle's house. I got out of the car and to my view, the house was decorated beautifully with flower garlands. There were more people than I expected to be, suddenly I found myself surrounded by girls and kids.
