Rejoice everyone here is the update!!! đ
Tashan, Glares and Dance
Arohi sighed as she was finally alone in the room. Since the time they had arrived at resort, she had hardly found a moment with herself.
The wedding was just one day away and considering this day as almost over, tomorrow is her wedding!!!!
She stood up from the bed and walked towards the full length mirror looking at herself carefully for the first time.
She felt like a cake with the amount of makeup applied on her face. She hated make up but now that she was marrying The Arjun Singhania so she was supposed to look in a certain way!
She twirled admiring the great work done by Nina. Her outfit consisted of a very light blue lehenga matched with copper choli. Nina gave her a perfect princess moment. She thought smiling to herself.
A set of diamond earrings was adorning her ears. But her most favorite thing was the three stoned half mangtika.
She admired her henna filled hands. During the mehandi ceremony earlier today she was told by one of the old lady that darker the color of mehandi, deeper the love of husband. And she can only scoff now seeing her dark red hands.
"How amazing it would have been if she was actually marrying a prince and not a beast!" She thought wryly.
But her words changed the minute she saw Arjun in an ice blue cowl neck sherwani. He looked nothing less than a Prince.
The minute he looked at her with scowl, she recognized the beast in disguise. She gave him a tight smile sat beside him on wooden swing.
"I am sure this swing will be broken by end of night" he commented leaning near her ear.
She gave him a sharp look "not sure about swing but if u didn't control ur shitty mouth then ur face will definitely be broken!"
They both gave each other tashan-ed look. To anyone else it must have look like a couple sharing some light romantic moment if only they knew...
Their romantic eyelock (note sarcasm) was broken by his cousin Gauri's announcement. There was big setup in front of swing with lots of lights and blings kind of stage for performances she guessed.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, so our special guests of the evening are finally here!" Everyone applauded and cheered for them.
After that what followed was several dance performances by friends and family.
Arjun's parents and her father gave a funny yet powerful performance. Arjun's father never came across as someone who would dance but he danced amazingly. She was grinning throughout the performance but Sadu as usual had no expressions on his face.
Later Jia danced on Nai Jana with Shefali and Prachi. She was left teary eyed after her performance because she really didn't want to go with Arjun.
There was also a performance by Arjun's best friends from team- Jai, Salil and Romit.
Arjun stood up from swing as three of them approached him. They shared hugs and some jokes which she couldn't hear but they all laughed quite loud.
After Arjun they moved towards her "Namaste Bhabhi ji"
She joined her hands and greeted all of them with small smile.
"Arohi meet Jai, Salil and Romit" although she knew their them beforehand but she gave slight nod to all of them.
"Now we have seen u in personal we absolutely understand why Mr. "I am not getting married' decided to marry in such hurry" Jai remarked winking at Arjun who gave a fake smile.
Arohi forced laugh feeling awkward.
"Sachi Bhabhi u r very beautiful" Romit remarked making her blush a little.
"Thank you!"
Arjun coughed grabbing everyone's attention "u guys ate something?"
Jai laughed "Arjun we get it u want alone time now, we get the hint! Okay"
The trio laughed and left future Mr. and Mrs. Singhania alone.
"I can't believe they are ur friends"
"Excuse me! What is that supposed to mean?"
Arohi turned to look at him and gave him a broad smile "they are too good and generous to be ur friends"
"Just like how u are too low and greedy to be my wife!"
She glared at him and opened her mouth to reply but they were interrupted by few other guests.
The DJ was playing some dancing beats now as all performances were over.
Arjun Arohi didn't performed because Arjun went out of Delhi for some ad. shoot and Arohi caught stomach infection so both of them successfully avoided being part of any performance.
What they couldn't avoid was dancing with everyone else on DJ. So they did joined and individually danced keeping distance from each other but, what are friends for?
Quite strategically they both were pushed towards each other and as if on que the DJ changed the song to some romantic number.
The situation was very intense between both of them! None of them wanted to dance and both couldn't avoid the dance without raising doubts. So they did what they were supposed to do!
Arjun wrapped his one hand around her waist while taking hold of other. She kept her free hand on his shoulder swaying along with him.
"I can't believe I am dancing with 'you'!" The way he said "you" made her scrunch her nose.
Arohi gave him a bitchy smile "u are also marrying 'me'", this earned her a menacing glare from him.
"I am not thrilled about that either!" He switched her position making her back collide with his front "u should not be thrilled about that also" he tightened his arm around her waist "infact u should be scared! Very sacred!" He whispered evily in her ear.
A shiver ran down her spine but she composed herself "Hello Mister! Mauke ka fayda mat utaro" (Don't try to take advantage of situation) she said trying to loosen his arm but he kept it firm.
"Just imagine Arohi, u and me alone at my penthouse" he leaned closer blowing his breath on her neck "Tumahra toh me kitna fayda uthaunga" (how much advantage i will take of u)
"What do u mean?" She asked looking at him.
He scoffed as he stretched his arm pushing her away and then bringing closer "exactly what u understand!"
Can he actually do that? she thought with fear What if...
"What happened Arohi? Dar Gayi?"(Got Scared) He mocked..."there is time, u can still call off the wedding"
Arohi took a deep breath "Arohi Ahluwalia kise se nahi darti" (isn't scared of anyone) she glared back at him with equal menace "Don't mistake me for some innocent lamb who u can torture the way u want"
"I won't mistake u for that ever! I absolutely know what a cunning fox u are"
What followed was an intense staring match while everyone else stood in awe of them. He pulled his hand from her waist and twirled her once,twice,thrice,...he continued twirling her with aggression. Arohi lost her balance and put an end to their dance by falling in his arms.
They both were breathing heavily staring at each other but a loud burst of clapping made them part from each other.
After the torturous dance performance, now she was expected to eat from the same plate. She instantly remembered engagement when Arjun intentionally spoiled the plate. Just for the record, reminding you that she hated sharing!
Looks like it was not only her who remembered engagement night! She mentally cringed as he used same spoon for butter chicken and curd. She didn't want to eat in the same plate as him. God! Who made these silly rituals!
She looked at plate filled with all her favorite food and her heart died a little seeing him mercilessly messing them.
For the sake of all rats dancing in her stomach she tried to eat something but the monster was eating like a horse not allowing her to grab a bite. He had covered the whole plate as if it was his territory...if she was not this hungry she would have let the matter go but here she was starving so she pulled the plate to her side making him glare at her which she returned with equal fierceness. She had been getting so much of his glares that she had become immune to them. Earlier it used to scare her a little bit now not even an inch! Nada!
He needs to come up with something more threatening.. maybe a laser beam from eyes! That would really scare her!
Continuing their glaring match they finished their food and finally called it a night.
Arohi stared at sleeping Shefali and Prachi and mentally cursed them. It was 15 past 12 and she too was supposed to be taking her beauty sleep for her big day tomorrow...err technically today! But u can't expect a girl to sleep with an empty stomach now! Beauty sleep be damned...she wants food!
The kind of mess Arjun made of their plate deliberately not only irritated her but also left her hungry.
She discreetly walked out of room, if anyone of them woke up then they will force her back to sleep and restrict her from eating anything accounting stupid reasons like if she didn't sleep she would look tired tommorow or her stomach will look bloated if she ate so late and other reasons blah blah...
Damn! Her bad luck...the restaurant was already closed. Maybe it's gonna be a sleepless night with a grumbling stomach. She thought sadly but then her eyes caught vending machine in lobby. Like a child she excitedly ran towards it but as soon as she put her hand in nightsuit's pocket for fishing out her card ..she realized she forgot her card in room. Grr...she was cursing herself for the stupidity when someone cleared his throat behind her.
She turned to find her would be darling husband standing there with a mocking smile on his face.
"What's up Humpty? Hungry?" He scoffed "obviously! No doubt u r so big"
Her nose flared with anger "I am not hungry!"
"So what are u doing here?"
"I.." she saw him raising his brow listening intently "I was just admiring this vending machine...it's the most beautiful one I have seen till now"
Wow...way to go! As if he already didn't think worst of her...now he can claim her mental too!
"If u r done admiring..get aside" he spoke and rudely pushed her.
Arohi's mouth opened in o shape as he did that. The twisting in her stomach reminded her of her problem. If she went back to her room and then came back, it will take more than 20 minutes and if anyone woke up then forever!
So what she should do? Take beast's help? Hell No. She was engrossed in her deep thinking but his whistle made her look at him.
As soon she looked at him he threw a chips packet towards her. Her hands on reflex opened to catch it.
"Why are u giving me this? I am not hungry and I don't want anything from u" she said forwarding the packet to give back to him.
"Stop this drama and follow me. I have to discuss something important" he spoke tossing her a pack of biscuits "Hold them for me"
He walked ahead making her follow him... "Excuse me! I am not ur servant. Hold ur things urself!"
