Finding Forever, Together ~

Chapter 1

The sun was rising, making the sky look beautiful, on what was going to be a special day for two families. The Oberois and the Trivedis have hosted a party to celebrate the grand success of their eldest children, who had just graduated University with flying colours.

At Oberoi Mansion

"Get up!" Shivaay walked into the room, and slammed a pillow on his brother's head.

"Sone do na bhaiya," Rudra replied in a sleepy voice, burying his head more into the pillow.

"Rudy! Jaldi uth!" Shivaay appealed again, now sitting beside him and pulling his hair a little.

Rudra came out of sleep, but before opening his eyes, got hold of his phone, and finally opening them, looked at the time.

"Bhaiya!" He whined, "subah ke 5 baje hain abhi! Itni jaldi kyu utha rahe ho?"

"Rudra, I will count till five. Agar tu nahi utha, toh...." Shivaay threatened him, but Rudra covered himself with the duvet, and fell into sleep again.

After counting down till five for special effect, Shivaay poured water into a glass, and uncovering Rudra's face, poured it on him.

Rudra sat up on the bed with a jerk.

"Fhat the wuck?" He yelled, wiping his face, "bhaiya! Yeh kya tha!"

"Uth ja na Rudy," he said cutely, "dekh, aaj party hai. And party me obviously woh bhi aayegi. Toh mujhe teri help chaiye."

Rudra looked at him cheekily.

"Woh kaun? Annika bhabhi?" He asked him with a smirk, and Shivaay widened his eyes.

Rudra chuckled. "I mean, didi. Meri kya help chaiye aapko?"

"Sun," he leaned closer into his ear, "mujhe Annika ko impress karna hai. Toh mujhe uske liye ideas chaiye." He tells him, and coming back to his position, looks away.

Rudra laughed.

"Uske liye pura din hai bhaiya! Aapne mujhe subah 5 baje kyu uthaya!"

"Duffer! You know yeh sab, ladkiyon ko impress karna and all that, doesn't really suit my personality. Toh mai nahi chahta tha ki kisi ko bhi pata chale ki mai yeh sab kar raha hoon. Aur waise bhi...agar hum yeh sab din me karenge toh tujhe toh pata hi hai...Om toh mere peeche hi padh jayega.." He said shyly.

"And on a more important note, mujhe party se pehle dopahar ko dad ke saath ek meeting me jaana hai. Toh mere paas time nahi hai."

Rudra nodded.

"Waise bhaiya..." He started again, "aapko kya zarurat hai Annika didi ko impress karne ki? I mean, sabko pata hai ki woh aapki unofficial 'girlfriend' hain. Toh?" He asked him.

"Sabko pata hai?" Shivaay questioned in shock. Him and Annika were dating for three years now. But they still weren't official to their families.

"I mean...jaise aap Annika didi ke peeche peeche ghumte rehte ho, sabko pata hi hai..." Rudra added with a smirk.

"Shut up, Rudra," Shivaay reprimanded him, "faltu ki baatein mat kar. Help kar sakta hai toh bata, nahi toh mai khud hi kuch sochta hoon,"

"Mai kya bolun bhaiya..." Rudra said, thinking of a plan, "bas aap party me Prince Charming banke jaana. Agar Annika didi ne aapko tareef ki toh, thoda bahut flirt kar lena...aur kya!"
