~ Perilous Obsessions ~
"Come, Khushi, I'll make you meet Akash's brother !"
Khushi was someone who enjoyed socializing and when the occassion was as special as this one, she had to let her hair down !
It was a small get together... the pre engagement celebration of Payal and Akash, with a few of their friends. Payal was actually introducing Akash at this party to her friends and cousins.
The engagement was due the next day and Khushi had just met Akash, a few days back. She had liked him immensely but as she was completely engrossed in a complicated case recently, she did not get much chance to inquire about his family. She knew vaguely that he had a brother and a sister. Khushi was looking forward to meeting them today.
Khushi met a few friends of Payal and chilled with cousins but Akash's brother was nowhere to be seen. He had been late with some official meeting and Khushi hardly cared. She was enjoying with her cousins and friends.
The atmosphere in the most happening resto-bar in the town was getting cosier and everyone loved it. Payal confirmed if everyone was comfortable, Akash saw to it that they ate well, and apologized for his brother's absence but his loving Anjali Di and super cool Shyam jiju more than made up for it and Khushi loved meeting them.
The crowd gathered to dance at the central floor and Khushi danced as if there was no tomorrow.
She never took alcohol and she never needed to; her only mantra was to drink the cups of life till it's dregs !
The music, the ambience, the occasion and the crowd''.everything was perfect !
Except one thing ' Arnav Singh Raizada''.who just entered !
He came only because he had promised Akash and Anjali Di that he would definitely turn up, but immediately regretted it !
He hated everything that was loud and noisy'' everything that was confused and crazy''.everything that was happy and bubbly !
He hated unnecessary nuisance and he felt completely bored the moment he moved around the place trying to locate Di and Akash.
He spotted Di, greeted her and was by her side. Anjali pointed towards a couple on the dance floor who looked lost... totally in love ' Payal and Akash'.
He smiled, just because his bro was smiling and then he turned to Di to ask whether he could leave. It was getting too much for him to bear the non sense.
"Chotey! It doesn't look nice that you came all the way and don't meet them'..I'll just call Payal and Akash; meet them and then go !"
"Let it be Di, I came just because I had promised, and I am already getting late for another dinner meet."
"It's fine to relax sometimes Chotey ! Sit down and have something," Anjali di behaved nurturing and loving as she always did and he couldn't refuse.
He threw a quick glance at his Rolex watch and decided to sit down for exactly 5 minutes !!!
Not even aware for the slightest bit that those 5 minutes will change his life forever''.
