Page 22 of ARIDHI: His Never-Ending Desire

Finally the day everyone was waiting for arrived. Engagement of Ridhima and Manish Bhaiya. I'm Excited!

Whole Singhania Mansion is decorated beautifully. Almost everyone had arrived till now.

Ridhima is already ready and currently she is downstairs. Meanwhile, I was getting ready in her room.

The theme of the Engagement has been kept Blue coloured.

I kept my hair open with a little makeup. Since I am done, I decided to go and check the arrangements.

I was keeping every step on the stairs very carefully to make sure I don't fall as My Eyes were roaming all around the Hall.

And Suddenly His Eyes came in my view. I froze at my place. The only thing which I could hear was My Heartbeat.

His eyes seems like they were waiting for me only. His gaze and intense in them. I felt my cheeks burning.

He didn't wore traditional but a formal suit yet looking Handsome. But wae the topmost buttons of his shirt are open!?

I walked down from the stairs and directly went infront of him.

"Hayeee" He mumbled while keeping his one hand on his chest.

I tried to avoid eye contact with him because I know I'm getting red like a tomato. His Jawline and Some part of his chest is clearly visible.

"Look at me Princess!" He said dominantly but I was still not looking at him.

He pulled me towards him by my waist to grab my attention and again our eyes ended up being locked into each other.

"Tumko paya hain toh jaise khoya hu, Kehna Chahu bhi toh tumse kya kahu?" He sang in a low voice.

"Kisi Zabaan mein bhi woh lafz hi nahi, ki jinme tum ho kya, tumhe bta saku?" He continued while pulling me closer.

"Me agr kahu tumsa haseen, kaaynaat mein nahi hain kahi, Tareef yeh bhi toh sach hain kuch nhi nahi!" He finished but the same song started to play on the DJ.

"Your Shirt-"

"What happened to my shirt? Is it not Okey?" He asked continuously.

"Its topmost Buttons-"

"Ohh! I opened them intentionally. What happened, Are you getting seduced by them?" He smirked.

"No way!!"

Yes!! They are seducing me don't know wae but whatever Am I going to agree with him!?

He let me go but his eyes didn't. They were still on me. I broke the eye contact as I noticed something which Ridhima won't like.

I walked towards the wall which was decorated with Blue Flowers as Ridhima won't like it.

There was a stool beside it so I decided to remove them by myself.

I kept the stool accordingly and climbed up on him.

"Madam! Aapko vaise hi bohut girne parne ka shoq hain to me soch rha hu ki Zameen pr girne se acha hain aap meri bahaon mein gir jaiye. Aur fir Pyar mein bhi gir hi jaogi!" Ruvit said.

(Madam! You are so fond of falling so I am thinking that instead of falling on the ground, I wish you would fall in my arms. And then you will fall in love with me too!)

"Can you please keep that mouth of yours shut for a minute?" I taunted while removing the one of the flowers.

"I can't. But you can. As I told before it will just take your lips on mine!" He smiled as I looked at him.

Suddenly I stumbled on the stool.

"Careful! You sprained your ankle 2 days before" Ruvit said while gripping upon the stool.

I nodded at him and removed all the Flowers.

As I was about to come down from the stool, My foot slipped but Thanks to Ruvit who was standing beside me.

"You're not afraid to fall, huh!" He said while holding me in his arms at the right time.

"Wae would I when I know you are and will always be there to hold me" I smiled while looking at him.

"Fall in Love with Me and I swear I will be holding you, not just for forever but eternity!" He said sincerely.

The look on his face is showing how determined he is and Blush on my face is showing how hard I'm going to fall.

"You really like carrying her in bridal style!" Ruvit's Mother chuckled, making me startled.

"Ofcourse! Now if I won't carry my future bride in bridal style then who will" Ruvit said.

This Boy!!

"Namaste Aunty Ji" I wished his mother, earning a nod and a smile from her.

"Mujhe Niche utarne ka kya loge?" I asked him. (What will you to get me down?)

"You won't be able to afford as it will be too much tiring for you" He replied while getting me down.

"What do you mean!?" My eyes widened as something double meaning clicked my mind.

"Leave it Princess. See you are standing straight on the ground, knowing that your legs don't deserve it!" He said while making me confused.

"Wae?" I questioned.

"They deserve to be on my shoulders!" He whispered to me, making me blush hard.

Please someone gimme holy water.

?

"Yohooooo!!" Everyone hooted and clapped as Ridhima made Manish Bhaiya wore the ring and vice versa.

(Their Dresses and Rings)

Photographers clicked everyone's pictures and music was playing in the background. Guests gave their blessings and gifts to the couple.

I gave Ridhima a Special Album of our Childhood Memories which was designed by me. She really liked it.

To Manish Bhaiya I gave him a set of Gents material including perfume, watch and all.

It was time to sign the official contract.

"You have to agree to all the Conditions!!" Ridhima said to Manish Bhaiya.

"Yeah, Anything for My Favourite Woman!" Manish Bhaiya said while signing it.

Everyone congratulated them. Some were dancing, some were at snacks corner, some were busy taking their selfie and etc.

I didn't ate anything since morning. I'm way too much hungry.

I was looking around for choosing what to eat when Ruvit came in front of me with a plate of Pav Bhaji.

"It's Your Favourite. Right?" He said.

I smiled brightly looking at the delicious food. I immediately took the plate from his hands and kept it on table beside me.

I sat on the chair and started to eat. Meanwhile Ruvit sat opposite to me.

"Eat slowly!" He said but I cared less about it. Once I was finished, I looked at him smiling at me.

"Sorry plus Thank You" I said,"Sorry for not replying you and Thanks for the food."

"I don't need any as I considered this as my duty!" He said on which I nod.

"It's really My favourite but how did you know that I'm hungry?" I asked him.

"I'm just trying to become an ideal husband for My Future Wife. Though anyone could read your expressions!" He chuckled.

"Wae don't you just make a Girlfriend rather than practicing on me?" I asked.

"I don't believe in Temporary Relationships, Jaan! If I chose a girl, she would end up being my wife, mother of my children, my lifetime partner. She will become My Ardhangini for every life since then!" He replied.

"And also, Wae I need a girlfriend when I have a Cute Bestie!" He pinched my cheeks.

"I don't believe it. I'm sure you already have a girlfriend, just not telling me" I huffed.

Well, I'm just kidding with him. I know He is definitely single.

"Well I do have one!" He sighed.

"What!? You are lying. Right!?" I narrowed my eyes.

"Do you wanna meet her?" He asked.

"Do you really have a girlfriend!?" I said rather in a disappointed tone.

"Yep and She is really Beautiful!" He claimed.

Beautiful My foot!

"If you have a girlfriend then wae do you flirt with me?" I asked with a furrow.

"As I said earlier, You are My Bestie!" He said,"If you wanna meet her, come tomorrow at my home!"

"At your home!?"

"Yeah!"

"Okey I will but I am telling you in advance that I'm more Beautiful than your girlfriend!"

I can't believe He has a girlfriend and telling me this today!? It's Okey if he is lying. I will see tomorrow.

And what if he has? My inner voice protested.

"We will see tomorrow who is more beautiful!" Ruvit said.

"Thank you everyone to come and attend My Grandson's Engagement. Hope you enjoyed the Moment" Ruvit's Grandma finally spoke.

"I have a very Important thing to tell you all present here!" She declared on the mic.

What is she upto?

"I have chose a girl for My younger grandson, Ruvit!" She continued.

Wtf!? I looked at Ruvit who was calm.

"Meet Ananya, One and Only Daughter of Sharma's! Ruvit and Ananya are also getting married soon" She said while gesturing Ananya to come on stage.

I can't believe it!!! Ruvit clearly told her that he is not interested in this bitch but she announced their marriage infront of everyone!?

He can't even disagree in front of everyone as his reputation is at stake. God!!

~·~

So that's all for the Engagement.

Are you excited to meet Ruvit's girlfriend? ??
