Chapter 13

Anvitha's pov:

Ugly duckling..

How can he call me ugly duckling?

How dare he talk to me like that?

How can he relate money to me?

If he got money it's his fortune, why show off?

How can someone be so materialistic?

I am not leaving him this time.

Not everyone deserve my kindness and Politeness.

I will show him what happens if someone hurt ANVITHA.

Wait for my grand arrival Mr Cool. I am going to melt you with my love.

Did i say Love...? I don't even know starting letter in Love.

Oh God!!! Save me, I am going crazy.

Anyways i am going to melt him in my own style.

Why am i thinking about him? I should be thinking about myself rather than him.

The whole house is decorated with flowers and lights.

I would be excited with the arrangements but i feel overwhelming looking at that. Maa told me to rest as i have lot of rituals ahead where my energy would be drained. Everyone was busy with one or other work no one has time to talk to me if not talk just stay beside me their presence sometimes is enough for strength of mind.

I lay on my bed with eyes wide open, brain functioning nonstop thinking about my life ahead. I am scared of this new revelation , nervous of new relation and sad to leave everything behind and start a new life. But we women don't have choice. We are born with strongest mind, warmth heart and humble nature.

I should be happy, right? but why don't i feel excited like ishu akka. She was delighted to get married, here i am sulking like 3 year kid when she get to know she would be sent to boarding.

I heard a knock on the door, i mumbled a small' come in'. I saw ishu akka at the door. I jumped out of bed and hugged her. My brooding self switched to excitement when i saw her.

I just wanted someone beside me when i am freaking like chicken.

"Oh!!Someone did miss me along with someone special." she teased me as if she know i was busy cursing him had no time to miss him.

I smiled mockingly rolling my eyes. Ishu sensed something off in me as his face from teasing turned to serious in a mere nano second.

"What happen anvi? Aren't you happy with this marraige?"

Should i tell her or shouldn't i ? I was debating but i couldn't control myself and wanted to know how it to be married to rich people and their lifestyle. And my encounter with her MIL was eating my brain. I couldn't help but worry about her.

"Ishu, Are you happy there? Your mother-in-law seems to be more arrogant. I didn't mean to offend you, just i am worried about you." i asked concerned.

"Anvi, Not everywhere you go you are welcomed with open arms. Everyone has their own up and down and insecurity. They behave arrogantly because of that. We have to earn their trust. It's not easy task but if you are sincere they will eventually fall in liking. As of my MIL she was kind of tough at the beginning now we are gelling up a bit. She started to talk to me casually and we even have 'we time' together to catch up today's event. So, You don't worry. Everything takes time we should have some patience. We cannot let go without fighting. You got me Missy" she tapped my cheek lovingly while i nodded my head memorising everything.

Soon i was dressed in yellow colored saree which is obviously selected by none other than my to be for haldi ceremony. I had minimal make up as the guest is of from my side so i don't have to dress up to their class but i had to get ready again as mehandi ceremony will be soon after the haldi all the guest from both the sides are invited and not to mention sagar should attend.

His name is enough to spoil my mood.

I was made to sit on swing decorated with yellow flower. Within few hours the haldi ceremony ended with no chaos.

Next comes the awaiting mehandi ceremony. Witb loud DJ in the background and my cousins enjoying dancing to the beat i sulk on the sofa cursing the person siting right beside me. We hadn't talked heck we hadn't glanced each other from the time he arrived. I couldn't accept the fact he taunted me in most disrespectful way and talk as if nothing happened.

I wasn't allowed to dance. After like 3 consecutive favourite song of mine i couldn't take it any long. I got up to reach the dance floor but was pulled back by my elbow none other than my to be. I glared at him but he diverted his gaze to his lover aka mobile. Even my parents shook their head as no when i begged them to alow me to dance through my eyes. He looks at that non breathing manmade piece of shit with so much of adoration i had to think like that. Not to mention he smiles at that.

Oh God!!! I am getting jealousy over a phone. I cannot believe this.

I was snatched my freedom. I was feeling really bad. I hate when people stop me from doing what i like.

As the time passed Guest started leaving the venue and only cousins of mine and his side were present.

Soon the song De dar de played.

Anaya came on stage and danced which was inappropriate and he had the guts to clap hands and enjoy her dancing when her fiance sitting right beside him. Not to mention he didn't allow me to dance..I know guys i am exaggerating but everyone should ve treated equally. He had problem with me dancing but he is encouraging anaya to dance.

Nerve of this man....

He never left his gaze from her. He kept on enjoying her dance leaning back on the sofa. I felt a pang in my heart. He is not allowed to look at any girl other than me. If he signed into me there us no sign out from it. I know how to get his attention to me. He will have his eyes only on me not on anyother girl now and in future.

The next song played and it was not planned. I looked over my shoulder and showed a thumbs up to ishu akka. I had texted her and being my loyal friend she played this song as per my request.

I got down from the stage swaying my hips, just a start up you know. I had my nose high with confidence radiating out of my body.

Soon

Sayaan ji song played. As soon as the song played he sat straight on the sofa alert. I danced swaying my hips up to the beats never leaving his gaze.

He had his eyes only on me and here i thought won the challenge but every plan has to backfire me.

He wandered his gaze from tip of my head to toe....lustfully.

He licked his lips seductively and sat on the sofa bashfully.

I looked around to find everyone had their mouth hanging in air and eyes popping out.

I wanted to laugh at their expression but someone black eyes and smirk had me shiver in this hot dance.

His gaze started turning dark as each second passed.

My confidence level started decreasing as his eyes darkened.

As soon as the song stopped i felt a rush of nervousness slap at my face. I had to sit beside him till the ceremony end.

Oh God!!! Why do i have fried brain which cannot think a plan without fail?

I felt my leg shaking with each step i took towards him and my head spin thinking about the possibility his output. I just hope he doesn't touch me inappropriately thinking i am seducing him.

I have never planned to seduce him i just acted out of jealousy. Why i had to land in such embrassing moment.

I approached him not meeting his gaze i could feel his heated gaze on me. I just don't care about the other stare right now on me but his stare is only adding to my existing nervousness.

I sat farther corner away from him.

I literally jumped off the sofa when he moved close to me so close that our arms brushed. My heart hammering on my chest and hands visibly shaking.

What will he do?

Will he take this opportunity and kiss me?

Will he curse me for my act?

Will he taunt me?

Will he shout at me for damaging his non existence image?

I bit my lips and squeeze my eye shut and waited for him remark worse curse.

What happened is something unexpected?

He lightly pecked my forehead and moved back to his place leaving decent space between us.

My eyes immediately without my permission moved to his. He just kept staring at me this time not lustfully but was different which i couldn't point out.

My lips automatically curved in to smile and i saw small smile on his lips before he turned his gaze to other side. My eyes twinkled at that.

That was just....unpredictable....

As the time passed my eye started dropping and i blanked out as soon as something hard yet warmth with lub dub hit my head.
