Adi was looking at them with a horrible expression. Arnav turned them around hiding Arohi from his view.
She bit her lip looking a little tensed. He caressed her waist in an attempt to ease her.
"Please tell me i did not just see you guys kissing each other?"
Adi still couldn't comprehend what he had witnessed. He had seen his best friend kissing his little sister.
Arnav cleared his throat not knowing what to answer.
"I think i need to wash my eyes out and throw up badly. And i when i return i want you atleast a metre away from here and we need to talk."
He said rushed out giving the two the time to correct their appearance. Arnav corrected her hair and her face.
She looked at little worried. He kissed her head and assured her.
"Relax. I'll handle."
Adi came in and instructed them to sit. Arohi quietly sat beside Arnav and intertwined their hands passing the message.
Arnav looked at Adi who was looking at their joined hands with scrutinizing gaze.
'He is going to kill me today.'
He held Arohi's hand tighter and caressed it lightly with his thumb.
"So? Who's going to start?"
Adi asked in a serious tone. Arnav cleared his throat and said.
"We love each other."
"Since when?"
"Since when do we love each other or since are we together?"
"The latter."
"A month."
If anyone would have seen the scene unfolding they would have thought that some kind of interview was going on.
"Aur tum logo ne batana zaruri bhi nhi samjha. I told everyone the next day me and Khushi started dating."
(And you guys didn't even tell.)
He said in a complaining tone and Arohi relaxed. He was not angry.
"Jis tarah tune announce kia tha agar mai karta toh tu meri jaan na le leta."
(The way you announced if i did the same you would have killed me.)
Arnav said rolling his eyes and Adi nodded in agreement.
He immediately sent a message in their cousin's group telling everyone about it.
Arnav was happy that Adi was fine with it else he didn't know he would have persuade him.
**************************************
It had been two months since Adi and their cousins have got to know about them.
Khushi had delivered a baby boy last month and he was named Hridhaan. He was literally Adi copy paste.
Ahana too had delivered just a week back. She too gave birth to a boy and he was named Ishaan.
Also, their families were now aware of their relationship.
Let me tell you how it happened.
Two days back, the kids wanted to visit the fair that was organised in the city.
Since, Adi and Khushi and Ahana and Reyansh could not go. The kids went with Arohi and Arnav.
Everyone enjoyed a lot there. Played games, had delicious food and clicked a lot of pictures.
They returned home and everyone was sharing the pictures they had on their phones.
Vihaan by mistake shared Arohi and Arnav's picture on their family group instead of their cousin's group.
In that picture, Arnav was hugging Arohi from behind and kissing her cheek while she was smiling widely.
As if this was not enough he had captioned it saying 'Look at the love birds!
He had deleted the message as soon as he realised but the deed was done.
Both of them were summoned by their parents and that was how the truth came out.
Chhaya had started squealing and jumping when she got to know that. Her long lived dream of getting her best friend's daughter as her daughter in law was finally going to be fulfilled.
Arohi was happy that their families did not have any problem with their relationship.
**************************************
Two months had passed since their families knew about them. Arnav reached Arohi's office and saw her standing near the wall talking to someone.
He hugged her behind and she flinched at the unexpected move but relaxed as she felt his touch.
She disconnected the call and slumped back against him. He kissed her shoulder and held her hand.
He twirled her around and pulled her close. He planted a chaste kiss on her lips and kept his forehead on hers.
"You look happy."
She said smiling. He smiled.
"I am happy. You know what sometimes this looks so unreal. It feels-"
She cut him off by kissing him softly. She pulled back after a few seconds.
"This is real."
She said joining their foreheads making him smile.
They stayed like that for some time.
"You know what i just realised that during all these months I did not take you out on any date."
She looked at him amused.
"Oh! Suddenly kaise realise hua?"
(How did you realise suddenly?)
"Ho gya bas. So? Will you go on a date with me?"
(I just did.)
"What if i say no?"
She bit her lip and he frowned.
"Please go on a date with me."
He looked so cute that she couldn't help but give him a loud kiss making him smile widely.
"I love you so much."
"I love you too."
"Shaam ko be ready. We are going on a date."
(Be ready in evening.)
She nodded and he went saying he needed to prepare for the date.
She shook her head smiling.
Arnav went home and started preparing for it. He wanted it perfect.
Arohi went home early to tell Devesh the same and he informed her that Arnav had already asked him.
Devesh smiled as he remembered how he had asked his father in law when he wanted to take Bhavna on a date. Life had formed a full circle.
Arohi got ready in a cute and sexy red dress.
She wore her heels and straightened her hair. She put on a red lipstick completing her look.
Viraj came in to take a book from her bookshelf and whistled.
"Arnav bhai toh gye."
(Arnav bhai is dead.)
"Shut up!"
She said trying to hide her smile and blush.
She heard Adi calling her saying that Arnav was there. She looked at herself one last time and moved out when she was satisfied with her look. ************************************** Please do leave your comments.
