Chapter 1
"Ah no motorbike today..?" he commented as she walked through the door at Raizada house and he took a peak outside just to check. She ignored it and walked straight into the kitchen because she could smelling Ajnalis cooking. This was it had been like for the past few days, he'd find this girl in his home randomly but it was okay she seemed to make his sister happy.
He gave her a look she bounced up on the kitchen counter next to Anaji who was at the stove. The friendship between the two of them so apparent in their conversation and mannerisms
Her visits were more frequent now they were to be married so there was a crazy kind of accord between them. Strangers who had one thing in common Anjali.
So Miss Gupta he said as he brewed coffee for himself and Khushi ate a grilled sandwich straight from the pan Anjali was cooking from.
"We're getting married tomorrow," he looked at her a glance. Are you having a hen night,?
Was he trying to make it awkward for her in front of Anjali because it wasn't!
"A small one.." she replied eating in to her sandwich as she spoke.
"And you?", are you having a bachelor's
No .. he replied and began to walk off. Khushi looked at Anjali with expressive eyes to ask if this was bad but Anjali just laughed it off.
How rude she thought running up the stairs behind him hearing her he turns her way and she looks at him curiously at the way he is looking at her.
What,what are you looking at ! - "Obviously how beautiful I am and how you can't believe I'm your wife to be right?"
He looks at her with his charcoal eyes and straight face. "No."
"Don't lie Raizada !"
What- the..! he could not believe she just called him that
Why so secretive hey..
That was it he wasn't going to bother he walked up the stairs and she followed only before taking of her boots however and that was another thing for him to pull a face at.
Okay my boots make it hard to walk up these stairs okay Don't judge
"Too late.." he shouts as he walks off and she staggers behind.
"You know what it is.. too late
because I'm your wife to be and after tomorrow that's it.
THAT IS IT."
She talks ever so dramatically he thinks in his head as he puts down his coffee on the side table by the recliner and he sees her throw off her jacket and look around his room like it was hers already.
In her opinion Arnav's choice of sitting on the recliner was rubbish especially when there was such a great swimming pool her eyes lit up as she grabbed another sandwich from his plate and ran off into the poolside.
He pulled a face because that is all he could do these days. He took a breather and spoke under his breath..
"Why Why why .. why you" he repeated but then as he took a sip of his coffee and opened his latop just for a second he took a glance to the poolside and saw Khushi sat with her feet in the water and she took his breath away, in all her craziness there was something more to her than she let on.!
...
That was it she looked breath taking in her wedding dress and he looked great in his suit and it was a lovely affair all of it. they were Mr and Mr Raizada. When Arnav finally got a little time to himself at the end of the day just before he could retreat to his room for their first wedded night he knew his wife was very different to him but it was worth it. All of this was worth it. Whether they were in love or not, whether they were strangers or not it didn't matter because there was harmony. Harmony in his home and a smile on Anjali's face.
He was still confused by the choice of bride but it was what it. Even when he tried to explain to his sister than he wasn't sure if Khushi was right for their family right up until d-day the reality was that there was a bond of some sort with her by the time they got to the wedding day that stopped him from overthrowing everything in one go.
This was unusual.
When he walked up into his room he took a deep breath before entering the room, ideally he would find a beautiful bride awaiting him in her wedding dress at least that was normal' he'd settle for normal if not ideal.
As he did enter though as expected Khushi took him by surprise neither was she waiting him in her dress nor had she done something totally crazy she was simply asleep. Asleep in an angelic manner at that that left him speechless.
...
His life was now to consist of crazy shopping trips, nights out drinking, walking along side a crazy biker girl who chewed gum and song crazy bollywood songs. Oh dear what had he got himself into he wondered as he put on his suit the next morning but it was okay because he would go to work and get back in the evening and that was his route out of it all he reassured himself!...
Next Chapter
"What in gods names are you !!..." he freaked when he opened his eyes on the sofa he had just crashed on after getting back from work.
