Buddy me for PMs
A Talli-fied Story
"Chote!" "Arnav Bitwa!" "Bhai!" "Jethji!"
Arnav woke up hastily as he heard loud bangings combined with shrills, shrieks and shouts. He looked at his clock and found it read 3 a.m. . Removing off his comforter he ran towards his door panicking.
"What happened? Is Nani all right?" he asked as soon as he flung the door open.
"Chote , I am in front of you", Nani informed and chote stood confused. He looked around and found all his family members surrounding him.
"What happened? Why did you guys wake me up NOW?", he asked and before anyone could answer him he heard a loud bellow.
"ARNAV SINGH RAIZADA! Get your pretty bum off your bed right NOW", Arnav craned his head towards the direction of sound. It resembled someone, but this version of sound WAS heavier.
"What the… who's that?" Arnav asked Akash who just indicated using his eyes to descend downstairs.
With quickened steps he descended down the steps followed by a trail of his family members.
"ARNAV SINGH RAIZZZ….", the sound halted as the person being called stood with shocked wide eyes.
"What the hell Khushi?" he shouted as Khushi stood in front of him swaying weirdly with hooded eyes and a bottle in hand.
"Aao Thakur", Khushi greeted him by bowing down and stumbled. Arnav extended his hand but she prevented the fall.
"Khushi? You are drunk?", he scanned her and she grinned. "Raizzzda … I am swayinnng, I have a bottle in haaand and I am seeing multiple yooou. I am drunk. CHEERS!!", she greeted and placed the bottle rim in her lips but it was snatched by Arnav who was looking at her with angry eyes.
"What is this Khushi?" he towered over her but she again grinned and pointed to his right. "Listen Arnav.." she started and Arnav interrupted her by pulling her index finger from her right to his chest. Khushi giggled again "This is the real Arnav… I thought the right one is… Sorry!", she hiccupped.
Khushi was about to slip but Arnav held her by her both shoulders and started shouting. "What the hell is this Khushi? You are drunk? DRUNK? Why did you consume alcohol? Why did…"
"Ek Minute", she interrupted putting her index finger over his lip which he shrugged off and she pushed him off. She faced the family.
"Namaste in-laws..hic..sorry!...", she held her ears "…would be in-laws". She swayed as she saw the family standing like statues and she hardened her voice, "You won't greet me? GREET ME!" she shouted and they meekly returned her Namaste.
"Khushi!", Arnav protested and Khushi in turn shouted "Chup!"
"Arnav Singh Raizada, how long do you know me?", she swayed as she asked, "Answer me" she again moved towards him and pointed to his right.
"Twenty Five years", he answered as he pulled her index finger towards him.
"…and when did we start dating?", her eyes turned more hooded as she placed her palm over his chest.
"Three years", he flung off her hand, his eyes hard.
"But you never felt like saying 'I love you' to me", she stepped back. "Today your family comes to my house and fixes my marriage with you", Khushi turned towards the family. "But you did not even propose me for marriage", she again pouted.
"…and now I will not propose at all", Arnav replied and his eyes widened as he saw her taking out a pocket knife and placing it over her wrist.
"You don't love me?", she shouted as she swayed and Arnav feared her unsteady state which can lead her cut her vein.
"Khushi" he shouted as he started nearing her.
"Khushi" "Khushi bitiya", the family shouted.
"Don't come near… or else", she placed the knife over her throat.
"Okay…okay", he assured panicking.
"So Arnav you don't love me?"
"I…I love you", he confessed.
"Say it aloud"
"Khushi I love you"
"You don't want to marry me?"
He stood silent.
"Arnaaav", she moved the knife a little and swayed.
"I want to marry you."
"Then propose me now."
He again stood silent but the panicky family requested.
"Chote please"
"Arnav Bitwa please"
"Bhai Please"
"Jethji Please"
"Will you marry me Khushi?", he proposed.
"On your knees", she commanded to which he complied.
"Khushi will you marry me?", he extended his hand and she placed her hands in his.
"I will marry you", she giggled and continued.
"Get engaged to me right now", she said
"What the!"
"Arnav!", she shook her knife.
"Fine…fine" Arnav slipped of his ring from his ring finger and slid it to her ring finger and found it to be not fitting. He slid it to her middle finger.
"Happy?", he muttered.
Khushi threw the knife and started doing bhangra around the room.
"Yahoo!!! He confessed, he proposed and we got engaged… Balle balle!!"
Arnav saw his family smiling and Khushi jumping and dancing and understood this was his family's plan.
Arnav was angry and he pulled her by her elbow "Why?"
"Why Chote?", Anjali answered. "You did not confess her, propose her but when we asked you were ready to get married. How dumb!"
"So we decided to play with you a little", Nani chirped in.
"You guys planned this whole act? " Arnav was still in shock.
"No Arnav Bitwa, this was whole Khushi's plan, we all just played our role", Mami confessed.
Arnav pulled her towards him and hugged her furiously.
"Do not.. EVER do this to me again… do you get it?"
Khushi nodded and hugged him in return and the family cheered them with claps.
"I love you Khushi"
