^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Armaan and Riddhima are aware that their perants have chosen their life partners for them. Since childhood they both have been hearing continuous discussions about their marriage by their perants. When they were little they used to take all of this as a joke and sometimes they even used to play games were they would pretend to be husband and wife, but as they grew up they knew that one day they will get married to each other, as this was their perants dream.

When Riddhima was 16, her dad had decided that he will move to London with his family, as this will be better for his career, and he was right, in these 8 years he has achieved a lot of success and fame. He is now one of the biggest Neurosurgeons in London. But now it was time for him to move back to his county again, once and for all'.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It was raining heavily' she was outside in the balcony of her mansion, stretching her arms out to feel the rain'ahh yes she loved the rain'as the wind blew she looked up into the sky and closed her eyes'she could feel each and every rain drop dripping down her cheeks, only to send cold shivers down her neck'she was thinking about him, how she longed to feel his presence again'she smiled'his thoughts always filled her stomach with butterflies' Riddhima! Riddhima! Kaha ho tum beta?...shouted a beautiful middle aged women, yes she was Riddhima's mum'Mrs. Padma Gupta'she quickly opened her eyes and broke out of her thoughts...mum! main yahi hon...

"Riddhima tum yaha ho beta, I've been looking for you everywhere, muskaan has come to see you, and quickly get in before you catch a cold", said padma like every concerned mother would say.

"Uffo maa, nothing will happen to me! You worry too much", she smiled

"Acha, quickly come inside the house and get yourself dried pagli"

As Riddhima was drying her hair, she got engaged in his thoughts again. Every time, his image would appear in her mind, she would blush. She herself didn't know why, it has almost been 8 years since she had seen him'

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It was 12 am at night, and he was still awake, unable to sleep, his brain felt like it was going to burst. What was he going to do?...how was he going to stop all this? There were thousands of questions rising is his mind. He could not sleep!

He quickly got out of his bed and ran to the basketball court behind his house. Playing basketball always helped him to clear his worries'

Finally after shooting some hoops, he lay on the floor with his hands behind his head'he looked up into the sky and realized how beautiful the sight was'he smiled'the dark sky was speckled with stars, that were invisible by day and visible by night'the view was enchanting'.

"What am I going to do, after two days she will be here'and then they will start talking about us again'.NO NO NO NOOO! I can't let that happen'i can't get married! Am not even ready! How am I going to spend the rest of my life with only 1 girl! The longest relationship I had only lasted 2 days! N most importantly I don't even know how she looks! Its been 8 years since I've seen her, god knows how she looks now!...urghhh!! why is this happening to me'.god please help me'"

Suddenly armaan felt something vibrating in his pocket'it was his phone'he wondered who would be calling him at this hour'he looked at the caller ID'it was Nikki. Nikki had always wanted armaan, but every time she would go close to him he would back off, he wasn't really interested in her, he thought of her as a friend only and nothing more.

"Hi nikki, wots up"? ' He said in an annoyed voice.

"Hey'.armaan!! I was just feeling bored, so thought of calling you to see if you're awake, anyways I guess it's my lucky day since you are very much awake"! ' she said in a load voice

"Errrmm'..yeh I coud'nt sleep"

"Ohhh'why? Are you still thinking about your adorable wife"! She giggled

"Ohh please don't talk about her! And she's not my wife yet! So don't say anything like that next time" said armaan annoyingly, he already has enough problems in his head and now she's spicing it up.

Nikki felt very happy, when he said this. She only wanted him to herself! She woud'nt let anyone else come in between! She knew that armaan wasn't interested in her but she wasn't going to give up that easily!

"Okay Nikki I need to go, am feeling sleepy" lied armaan, he coud'nt tolerate her bakwaas anymore! He just cut the phone without even hearing her reply.

Okay Armaan Malik! You need to do something if you want to save your life! You need to think of something'.armaan was thinking for quite some time when suddenly he jumped.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! Finally! Yes I will try and make her hate me so much, that she herself says no to the marriage! Yes armaan that is perfect dude! Good job! Mwahahahahahaha! He laughed"

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"Riddhima! Were have you been' do know how many times I have been shouting out your name! and know thanks to you my poor throat is hurting" she said in a babyish voice.

Muskaan! Riddhima ran to her and hugged her

"Wow you seem very happy today" said muskaan

"Yes! Am very happy today for some reason, I don't know I have this strange feeling inside me" said Riddhima cheerfully

"are you sure you don't now? Hmmm'."

"what to do you mean" said a confused Riddhima

"Riddhima! Am not a fool you know, I know very well why you are happy. Your feeling happy because your excited to see him again are'nt you'" smiled muskaan

"Muskaan! Tum bhi na! why would I be excited!..." denied riddhima, she didn't know herself why she's so excited.

"Riddhima'yaar'you know you can't hide anything from me", giggled muskaan'"but I don't understand one thing, you don't even how he is like, I mean does he have a good nature? Is he good looking? Does he feel the same way as you do'..you don't know anything about him! And still you think about him day and night'"

"I don't even know myself why am feeling like this muskaan, yeh you are right I don't know anything about him and still I think about him 24/7, this is something which I don't have an answer to'." Said riddhima worriedly'

"Okay baba, we won't talk about that anymore, anyways I've got good news for you" ! '..

"Good news" said a confused riddhima

"Yes!! Good news'AM COMING TO INDIA WITH YOU" ! Shouted muskaan excitedly!

"What! Omg! Sach! Am sooo happy"! Screamed Riddhima, "But how"'.

"Well' mum and dad have been bugging me to come back home and what am I going to do here in London, I will be alone! And anyway I need to see your future husband; god knows which idiot you will be marrying"! laughed muskaan.

"Muskaan"! Riddhima laughed

"acha am main chalti hon, its getting late and I need to get things ready as well, byeee"

"Okay, byeee"

As muskaan left, there was one thing which was haunting her'something which muskaan said'she closed her eyes and recollected what muskaan had said'"does he feel the same way as you do"'.yes these words were infecting her brain, what if he didn't feel the same way as her, what if he didn't want what she wanted'.what if'..
