CHAPTER 10

Alisha's POV

"Maa, look na. Bhai is applying so much of haldi in my face." I complained as bhai smashed handful of haldi on my face.

Yes, finally it was my haldi today. I was wearing a long white sleeveless Anarkali.

Past few weeks were gone in shopping. I hadn't realised that today was my haldi.

Everyone is laughing at our childishness.

"Mom, look this baby little sister of mine is grown up now." Bhai said pulling my cheeks.

"Even I can't believe. It feels like it was just yesterday when I was holding her in my hands and today she's getting married." Maa said teary eyed while applying haldi on my face.

After a while the whole garden was a mess. Everyone was chasing each other and smashing haldi on each other's faces.

"Aloo beta, go take a shower and rest for a while and come down soon. You have to be ready for the sangeet ceremony tonight." Maa told.

"Okay maa." I replied and went to my room.

I'm sitting in front of the mirror wearing a robe with hair stylist and makeup artist doing their magic on me so that I would look pretty during my  sangeet.

"Mam, everything is done. You can wear the outfit now." She said pointing at the outfit.

"Okay fine. Thanks." I said and smiled at them. I wore the outfit and was about to put the jewellery when maa entered.

"Aloo, aren't you ready yet ? God this girl." She whined and came towards me to help me with the jewellery. I was ready and we decided to leave for the Malhotra mansion since that was the venue for sangeet.

We reached there in no time as it is just 2 streets away. The sangeet ceremony started. First Armaan's cousins and his close friends from Paris performed. Then there was a couple performance by Bhai and Shanaya. Then Armaan and I were asked to perform. At last my cousins and friends performed.

Everyone danced their asses off on random songs and finally the sangeet was over.

Armaan's POV

Finally, I'm getting what I want, Revenge.

"Armaan, where are you lost? Your girl is already here." Shanaya said tapping on my shoulder. Darn!!! Why does she have to look so pretty. I didn't take my eyes off her until I heard the crowd hooting.

'Shit!!! Armaan focus on your aim. You have to ruin her. She took your love away from you. Don't let her beauty distract you.' I reminded myself and faked a smile towards the crowd.

Finally, this sangeet is over. I can go  and sleep now.

Alisha's POV

"Aloo, baccha wake up. We need to apply mehandi on your hands." Maa was shaking me. I woke up and wore my mehandi outfit and went down.

The girls were applying mehandi.

It's been almost 2 hours and only my 1 hand and 1 leg was done.

After 6 long hours, my mehendi was finally done.

I had my dinner and went to sleep. I was lying on my bed when a notification popped on my phone.

Hey beautiful, how was your mehandi ?

My right hand's mehandi had dried. So I decided to reply to his text even though I knew how annoying it was to do that.

Hello handsome, it was amazing and tiring.

Acha. So ready for tomorrow.

Nope. Why would I be ready now? The wedding is tomorrow night not early morning.

I meant if you're ready for...

For???

You know what I mean. I don't mind elaborating it for you.

Good night. I'm sleepy.

Acha. Kitna ignore karogi. Kal raat toh mere paas hi aana hai na.

Good night. Sweet dreams. Take care.

ROFL 🤣 Good night, love.

❤️

Armaan's POV

Why is she behaving so cheesy? Looks like someone's fallen in your traps Armaan. Why am I thinking so much ? I just want my Neha to rest in peace and take revenge from Alisha for killing her so mercilessly. Poor soul!!! Her face wasn't even recognisable after that accident only her ID proofs and accessories proved that it was her.

While thinking all of these I didn't realise when sleep engulfed me.
