Part 1: It was 11 am in d morning nd Aarti was getting ready. She's not at all happy nd no one dare to talk to her wen she had Bad mood Except her Younger sis Paridhi who came to her nd notices dat her Di is nt fine wid d guests coming today. She smiles as she's well aware of her Di's nature nd also of her grumpy mood wen someone forces her to do the thing which she doesn't want. Paridhi just shakes her head nd goes to her Di to help her in getting ready.
"Oho Di!! U look so smashing today. Is it because of d guest coming today?" Paridhi said teasingly only to gain a glare from Aarti
"Shut up Paridhi! You knw that I am not in a mood of joke right now." Aarti replied as she wore her earrings
"Breaking News!! Aarti Dubey is not in d mood of joke. I mean it's the 8th wonder of world. Is it d impact of the great Yash Scindia?" Paridhi said as she winked at Aarti only to enrage her further
"ParidhiâŚ." Aarti roared in anger but it seems that her little sis is in no mood to give up
"C'mon Di. You are so lucky dat u r going to meet Yash Scindia. You knw hw many girls Die for his one look. Nd here you are getting a golden chance to meet him nd you are denying." Paridhi said unbelievingly while Aarti just rolled over her eyes.
"Oh really, Den y dnt u marry him?" Aarti said sarcastically seeing her younger sister going ga ga over Yash Scindia
"Kar leti Di but age difference bahut hai. Isiliye. But dnt worry I'll be happy as I'll be her Sister-in-law. Nd in our country Sister-in-law often termed as 'Aadhi Gharwali'." Paridhi said nd giggled
[I could do that also Di but there's very much Age difference, that's why. But dnt worry I'll be happy as I'll be her Sister-in-law. Nd in our country Sister-in-law often termed as 'Aadhi Gharwali']
"Pari, dnt count hens before hatching of eggs, becoz I m nt going to marry anyone. be it Yash Scindia or Brad Pitt. I give a damn all rite." Aarti said in a final tone in order to drop the conversation.
"But DiâŚâŚ.." Paridhi tried to say something only to be get interrupted as their mother Shobha comes to the room to check if Aarti is ready or not.
"Aarti, you r not ready yet? Dey will be here at any moment." Shobha asked as she saw her daughter standing in front of the mirror making a grumpy face
"Mom Di is almost ready. Can't u see excitement at her face hai na Di." Pari said before Aarti could reply anything in order to tease her more.
"Shut up Pari." Aarti said in anger nd Paridhi instantly shuts her mouth
"Nd Maa just becoz they are Padma Maasi's family friend I agreed to meet them But dnt expect me anything further." Aarti gave her finalverdict nd Shobha just sighed seeing her stubborn daughter.
"Aarti, Beta y dnt u understandâŚ." Shobha tried to make her daughter understand only to be interrupted by Aarti
"Why don't you understand Maa? It's my life nd I dnt want to marry anyone. Am I being any burden on u?" Aarti asked frustratingly
"Ya u r very big enough to take ur decisions nw. who am I to interfere? It's my mistake only dat I think of my Daughter's better future. Fine just nw I m going to call dem nd tell dem nt to come as my daughter has her own life. Ok" Shobha said being all emotional knowing very well that this trick of hers work Everytym on her daughter
Both Paridhi nd Aarti looked at each other den at their Mother. Dey knew that it's nothing more den a trick of their mom. They both give each other "She'll never change" Look nd den Aarti comes near Shobha
"Maa, I m sorry. But dnt say like dat. U knw Na how much I love u. Acha fine I'll meet dem nicely nd will not do anything which annoys u. ok" Aarti said as she side hugged her mother making her smile widely
"Really?" Shobha asked unbelievingly
"Ya really." Aarti assures her while giving her best smile
"Dats like my Aarti. I really love u beta." Shobha said while hugging her best daughter
"Nd mom me?" Paridhi said while making a baby face to which Aarti nd Shobha laughed out loud nd include her in group hug too.
"Acha Aarti now get ready fast. I m in d kitchen nd Pari pls come nd help me." Shobha said as she looked at the tym
"oho Mom u knw I dnt like all dis. please let it be Di's department only" Paridhi said as she made a disapproving face.
"Pari go nd help mom" Aarti said in a stern voice nd it is not less den a verdict for Paridhi but before she could say anything Aarti's cellphone rings interrupting their conversation.
.
"I knw ye kiska call hai?" Aarti said as she searched for her cellphone happily
"I know it's of Kinjal Di. Aur waise bhi is waqt sirf wahi hai jo tumhara mood theek kar sakti hai. U carry on I'll go nd help mom." Paridhi said as she makes her way outside her room while Aarti attends the call
[I know it's of Kinjal Di. Nd anyways this tym only she can make you happy. U carry on I'll go nd help mom]
"Hi Di! How's u? Thank god u called. U knw hw much I was missing u." Aarti said it all in one breath even before Kinjal could say hello
"I knw sweety. I know dat my little Sis must be nervous as she is Going to meet her Mr. Right today. Hhmmm Yash Scindia." Kinjal said teasingly while Aarti just rolled over her eyes
"Stop it Di. Now u dnt start. Already Pari has teased me a lot." Aarti said while twisting her lips making Kinjal chuckle.
"Ok Baba! I won't start. But why can't you consider him as Ur Mr. right?" Kinjal asked in a serious tone
"You know the reason Di. I am not ready for the marriage. And moreover I am just 21 yrs old now. There are lots of thing to do. I have to set up my career, wants to get Paridhi well-settled nd every1 is dragging me to dis shaadi business." Aarti confessed her inner turmoil as she sits on the bed.
"Aarti no one is dragging u to dis. Its Ur life nd decision will be urs only. Nd who said that u r going to marry him tomorrow only. Just meet him once that's it. May be he'll understand u wen u'll tell Ur problem to him." Kinjal tried to make her younger sister understand who was so adamant for not getting married.
"He has to di otherwise I had a Back up plan of mine." Aarti said as a matter of fact nd Kinjal eyes grew wide knowing very well how dangerous her plans could be.
"Aarti u r nt going to use any of ur plan got it." Kinjal said in a stern voice to which Aarti just pouted
"But diâŚ.." Aarti tried to say something only to be interrupted by Kinjal
"For me. Please." Kinjal said in a sweet voice while Aarti just sighed knowing her elder sister always succeeds in making her agree on her terms.
"ok fine u know I can't refuse u. but this is not fair. U always makes me agree on your terms." Aarti said in a complaining voice while Kinjal just chuckled.
"Acha nw just cheer up nd meet him ok. Who knows that it could be the turning point of your Life?" Kinjal said nd before Aarti could reply back Paridhi calls from outside telling dat dey have arrived.
"Acha Di I'll talk to u later. They have come." Aarti said as she hurriedly got up from bed nd checks herself in the mirror once again.
"Ok sweety Bye. Nd remember wat I said to u. love u" Kinjal reminded her yet again before disconnecting the call to which Aarti just rolled her eyes.
"Love u too di! Nd don't worry I'll remember each nd every thing. Bye." Aarti said nd disconnected the call nd checked herself in the mirror once again only to find herself all ready to meet the person "Yash Scindia"
******************************************************
Here Shobha Welcomes Yash nd his family. Yash has come along his father Mr. Suraj Pratap, his mother Gayatri nd his friend cum brother Prateek.
"Thanx, Shobha Ji but Pls dnt be so formal. We all are comfortable." Mr. Pratap said with a smile while settling down to calm down panicking Shobha.
"That's so nice of u Mr. Pratap. I m so glad dat you came." Shobha Ji said as she took am seat across them.
"Kaise nahi aate Shobha Ji. We heard a lot about u nd Ur Daughters from Padma. D way u managed Ur family after ur Husband's Death is really remarkable." Gayatri said to which Shobha Ji smiles faintly.
"Yes Gayatri Ji, But it couldn't be possible without Aarti's Support. She was dere for me always." Shobha Ji said with a smile praising her responsible daughter.
Mention of Aarti's name has somewhere brought smile on Yash's face as he felt someone stirred strings of his heart which didn't go unnoticed by Prateek who just smirked seeing the smiling face of his friend.
"Dude, Naam sun k ye haal hai Dekhega to kya hoga." Prateek said teasingly as he noticed Yash blushing
[Dude jut by listening name you are blushing like this. wat will happen wen you'll see her.]
"Shut up Prateek, its nothing like dat." Yash said as he felt Prateek caught him off guard.
Prateek: dnt hide it from me Dude, I can see clearly on ur face.
"PrateekâŚ." Yash tried to say something wen Paridhi interrupted in between.
"Any problem Yash JiâŚ" Paridhi said in between as she Notices something fishy is happening b/w both of dem. actually she was going to call Jiju but got scared wat will happen if Aarti Listens her calling Yash as Jiju.
"No... No problem." Yash fumbled with his words as he saw his mother nd father looking at him while Prateek just stifled his laugh.
"No dere is a problem. Actually we heard so many praises of Aarti so we are really dyeing to meet her. Right Yash." Prateek said winking to which Yash just gave him an angry glare.
"Bus itni si baat. Main abhi Di ko leke aati hoon. May I?" Paridhi said as she looked at Yash's parents seeking their permission
"ya Beta sure." Mr. Pratap said while giving his approval with a warm smile on his face nd Paridhi instantly goes inside to call Aarti.
"Dude ur Sister-in-law is really good. If she's like dat den I wonder hw will be Aarti." Prateek said as soon as Paridhi goes inside.
"Shut up Prateek!" Yash said in a stern voice nd Prateek instantly shuts his mouth.
Den suddenly everyone Notices Aarti coming. She was wearing White Suit wid light matching jewellary. She wears no Make-up but yet looks beautiful in her simplicity. She's holding tray of Tea in her hand while Paridhi helps her by holding snacks. For a moment Yash was really blown away wen he first saw her. She was definitely looking breathtaking in her simple nd natural beauty. Yash heart skips million beats as he felt himself gaping at her. Yash just couldn't able to take his eyes off her even if he wants to. Prateek First looks at Aarti den at Yash.
"Dude Control. She'll come to u only." Prateek whispered breaking Yash's reverie
"Huh!! No actuallyâŚ." Yash fumbled yet again as he realized that his Devil friend had caught him yet again to which Prateek just winked teasingly
"Namaste Aunty, Namaste uncle." Aarti greeted in her soft voice as she buts the tray on the table to which Mr. Pratap just nodded his head while Gayatri smiled warmly.
"Namaste Beta. God bless u. Come sit beside me." Gayatri said gesturing the seat beside her nd Aarti hesitantly went nd sit besides her.
"So beta, Padma has told me a lot about u. U r doing Fashion Designing Na?" Gayatri asked in order to start a conversation while Yash listens to her attentively
"Yes aunty. Final year after dat I wanted to do training before getting placed in any good company." Aarti said while still looking down. There's no doubt that she was feeling nervous which was actually natural for her.
"That's really good. So our company is going to have a Good Designer" Mr. Pratap said seems to be impressed with Aarti's answer to which she said nothing but smiled. She remembers wat her Di said to her "no blunders"
"Yash, won't you ask something?" Mr. Pratap said out of blue while Yash stumbled tried to formulate some sentence
"Actually Dad. Yash wants to talk to Aarti in alone. So aunty if u dnt mindâŚ." Prateek said as he looked at Shobha Ji expectantly.
"Ya sure beta. Aarti why dnt you Show your Room to Yash." Shobha Ji said smiling while Aarti hands turn onto fist. Dis is d only thing dat she hates wen someone comes to see a girl. Nd here she had to do the same because her mom had said. She looked at Yash's parents who just nodded their heads in approval nd she gets up gesturing Yash to come
"All d best dude." Prateek whispered from behind while Yash gave him an angry glare before following Aarti.
***************************************************************
Both were in Aarti's Room nw. Yash Notices dat her room is well maintained with the pics of her nd Paridhi on the walls. He saw d books arranged well at rack nd some novels lying on tables. He also notices Shields nd Certificates on d walls nd Shelves indicating that she is a bright student.
"Nice Room!" he complimented as he was impressed by the way Aarti had arranged her room.
"Soch kya rahi hai Aarti! Bol de ise that you are not ready for the marriage. Isse Acha mauka fir nahi milega." Aarti muttered under her breath but Yash's sharp ears caught that.
"U said something." he asked nd dis is wen Aarti realized that she had said it too loud.
"Ya⌠I want to say something to u." Aarti said while gathering all her courage.
"I guess for dat only we are here." Yash said as a matter of fact.
"No it's not abt wat u r thinking. ActuallyâŚ." Aarti fumbled as she was trying to find correct sets of words.
"ya say it."
"I can't marry u. pls pls pls reject me. Give any of d excuses but pls refuse from dis marriage. Pls." Aarti said all in one breathe while closing her eyes. After a while wen she opens her eyes she saw Yash standing dere Confused nd Shocked.
"Listen I dnt want to hurt u. but I can't marry u." Aarti said as she noticed Yash's shocked face.
"Do you love someone else." Yash asked instead of replying her statement
"No!" Aarti replied slowly
"Den is ur Family is putting any kind of pressure on u?"
"No not at all."
"Den wats d problem? You dnt like me?" Yash asked as he checked himself from top to bottom making sure that he looks presentable
"No it's nothing like dat. Actually I dnt want to marry anyone." Aarti said helplessly.
"Why?" Yash asked not understanding the reason of her denial.
"Because I want to support my Family. My mom has faced lots of hardships in her life nd nw I wanted to do something for her. But if I got married den I'll get stuck up in my married life nd I can't able to do anything. Datsy I m saying to u dat pls reject me." Aarti puts her thoughts in front of her while Yash just Smiled by seeing her innocence nd Concern towards her Family. Padma aunty is rite Aarti is different from other girls of her Age; he thought as he looked at Aarti ho was looking expectantly at him.
"But there must be a reason to reject u nd y should I reject u? U can also reject me" Yash asked as he sits casually on one of the chair in Aarti's room..
"Ya I can But I dnt have any reason to reject u." Aarti said while Yash just chuckled.
"Nd u think I had?" He asked while raising his brows
"Ya ofcourse, u had many reasons." Aarti said excitedly as she sees a ray of hope
"Like?" he asked playfully.
"Like u can say dat I m not your types or u dnt like my behaviour or our standards doesn't match or u didn't like my face or I showed you very much attitude wen we were alone at room etc. etc. Say anything but pls reject me." Aarti said literally pleading while Yash looked at him unbelievingly as she gave him excuses to reject her.
"Ok fine dnt worry, I'll definitely help u." Yash said after a while nd Aarti smiled brightly.
"Really? Thank u so much. U dnt know hw much relieved I m nw." Aarti said while taking a sigh of relief to which Yash said nothing but smiles.
***************************************************
Outside d room Paridhi tries to hear their Conversation wen Someone Taps at her shoulder. She gets irritate nd Turned to look back nd get surprised to see Prateek over dere.
"What r u doing here?" Prateek asked while raising his brows
"y? It's my home I can stand wherever I want. You are d guest wat r u doing here?" Paridhi asked while trying her best not to make him feel that he had caught her off guard.
"Oh yes rite. Ur home by d way does Aarti nd Yash knows dat u r trying to listening their conversations." Prateek asked nd Paridhi instantly got scared imagining her Di's reaction.
"No, pls dnt tell to Di otherwise she'll definitely kill me." she said panickly nd Prateek chuckled.
"Relax I won't say anything. Actually I had Came for same purpose for which u came." Prateek said nd winked while Pari looked at him with her mouth wide open.
"By d way what do u do?" Prateek asked in order to divert her mind.
"Oh me I am doing my graduation nd in last year nd trying hard to get placed in Radio India as RJ." Paridhi said chirpily
"Y only Radio India?" He asked curiously
"Because it s d best radio station nd I heard d RJs nd especially its owner is very good nd friendly."
"I knw thanx." Prateek said smilingly while Pari looks at him confused to which he just nodded negatively
"Dnt worry u'll definitely get. Nd if you want I'll do recommendation for u. I knw many people over dere." Prateek suggested nd Pari just makes a disapproving face.
"no thanx. I m Aarti Dubey's sis nd her sis doesn't need any kind of a recommendations." She said proudly nd Prateek smiled seeing her attitude.
"Dats good. I like Ur confidence. By the way Paridhi don't u think dey r taking too much time." Prateek asked nd Pari realized that he was right
"Ya, I think I should go nd call dem." she said as she moves towards the door
"Can I also come?" Prateek offered to which Pari just nodded nd showed him the way.
"Interesting." Prateek murmurs as he quietly follows Paridhi.
***********************************************************
Yash nd Aarti came outside d room everyone is very keen to knw wat happen between dem. But Aarti is relaxed because she knew dat Yash will reject her so basically she don't have to worry for anything. Paridhi saw her sister all relaxed wen she expected her to be nervous nd sensed something fishy.
"Kya hua Di? U look so Happy. Lagta hai Yash Scindia ka asar ho hi gya." Pari whispered making sure no one could listen them.
"Dnt worry my sweet sis. U'll come to knw soon." Aarti whispered back while Pari looked at him confused.
"To Yash Aarti Kaisi lagi tumko? Agar tum chahe to ek-do baar aur mil sakte ho." Mr. Pratap said as he was expecting his son's answer to be yes because basically he had already decided Aarti to be their Bahu.
"Dobara milne ki koi zarurat nahi hai Bauji" Yash said in a serious tone while everyone got tensed fearing something dreadful.
"Aarti Mujhe pasand hai." he said as he looked at Aarti nd every one sighed in relief. Every1 is happy except Aarti who is in Shock. Paridhi Hugs Aarti in happiness but she was too numb to react.
"Oh di I m so happy. I'll just go nd brings the sweets." She said nd went inside leaving shocked Aarti behind.
Prateek congrats Yash nd Gayatri hugs Shobha who is overwhelmed in tears. Aarti can't handle dis anymore so She quickly runs inside leaving everyone behind confused.
"I guess she got Shied. Dnt worry let her go." Gayatri Ji said but Yash knew very well y Aarti has gone inside nt because she was shy but she is angry.
***********************************************
Aarti is very angry wen she reached her room. She throwed her Duppatta away remove her earrings nd jewellary in Frustration hurting herself in the process but she least care
"Bada besharam insaan hai. Itni request Kari, itna convince kiya fir bhi nahi mana. In ladko ko seedhi tarah se koi baat samajh kyun nahi aati. Maansi sahi kehti hai ye sab ladke ek jaise hote hai. hum ladkiyon ki feelings ki inke liye koi importance nahi hoti. Shiv Ji Yeh kahan fasa diya aapne mujhe. Life mein Pehli baar lag raha hai ki Di ki baat maan kar galti kar di. Isse to acha hota ki maine apna koi Backup plan use kar liya hota atleast yeh sab to nahi hota." Aarti cribbed angrily as she sat on her bed throwing away the cushions in frustration. At that moment she just wanted to strangle Yash's neck nd if given her a chance den she won't even hesitate in doing that also.
Her thoughts were distracted wen her Cell phone rings she thought it would be her Kinjal Di but surprised to see an unknown no.
"Hello!" she spoke hesitantly as she tries to guess about the caller.
"Aarti!" she heard a male voice from other side which she couldn't recognize.
"ya whose it?"
"its me Yash!" she heard his voice nd anger started to course in her veins yet again.
"Iski itni himmat ki itna hone k baad ye mujhe call kar raha hai. but ise mera no. kaise Mila" Aarti murmurs to herself as she puts her hand on speaker nd
"Hello Aarti u dere?" Yash's voice broke her thoughts nd she realized that she's on call.
"Ya I am anything important." Aarti said sounding non interestingly while Yash sighed
"Ya. See I knw dat u r upset on me nd you have full right as I haven't lived up to Ur expectations therefore I have taken Ur no. from Paridhi. Actually I Wanna talk to u. so can we meet tomorrow." Yash said while Aarti just listened to him with her jaw opened seeing his audacity.
"Yahan mera dimaag kharab ho raha hai aur ise Date ki padi hai. Despo." Aarti murmurs yet again seeing him behaving all cool nd calm.
"Umm I m not sure I have my classes tomorrow." Aarti lied after a while as she was really in no mood to him again.
"Dnt worry we'll meet after Ur class at d Coffee Shop near Ur College. If you want I can come to pick u from dere." Yash said giving Aarti no other option while Aarti instantly gets up from her bed listening his offer. Dere's no way she'll let him to pick her up from the college
"No!! I'll come by myself." she said quickly before Yash could say anything else while Yash just smiled as he imagined her reaction.
"K den u'll be free by 5:00 so we'll meet at 5:30." It was rather a statement den seeking permission while Aarti knotted her brows in confusion.
"hw do u knw dat I'll be free by 5:00?" Aarti asked confusingly because as far as she remembers she haven't told him about her schedule
"Paridhi told me." Yash said clearing her confusion while Aarti cursed Paridhi under her breath.
"Ok den see u tomorrow at 5:30. Bye!" Yash said after a while breaking Aarti's reverie yet again.
"Bye!!" Aarti said frustratingly nd cuts the call banging the cell somewhere at the bed. She was hell angry right now nd Yash's audacity to ask her for the date had just added fuel into the fire.
"Coffee shop pe milna⌠baat karni hai⌠isko kya lagta hai jo ye chahega wahi hogaâŚ. Bilkul nahi Aarti Dubey se koi zabardasti nahi kara sakta⌠dekhti hoon ki kal ye mujhe kaise reject nahi kartaâŚ. Mr. Yash Scindia you had really messed up with a wrong girl this tymâŚ.. Let's see how you'll not reject me tomorrow." Aarti murmurs as she decides how she'll blast on Yash next day at the coffee shop.
