5. Absolutely Breathtaking

AUTHOR'S POV

THE SHARMA MANSION ~

The mansion was a chaos. Everyone was in hurry. Maid's were working here and there. Some of them were working on the decorations while some were doing house chores.

The cook's were in the kitchen. The aroma in the kitchen was amazing. Fragrance of many dishes can be smelt.

" Are Rita mujhe garnishing k liye dry fruits dena zara " Sunaina, vir's mom said. ( Rita, pass me dry fruits for garnishing. )

Rita, The oldest maid of sharma mansion, nodded and pass sunaina the bowl of dry fruits.

Sunaina quickly added dry fruits to Kheer and mixed it with the spoon.

She went out from the kitchen and shouted -

" Aree Avni, Ishu..!! Jaldi utho tum dono." ( Avni, Ishu...!! Wake up )

" Are maa chinta mt lo. Main uthati hu inhe." Diya said, going towards their rooms. (Mom don't take stress. I will wake them up. )

" Haan jaldi jao diya beta. " She is replied. ( Yes, go fast Diya beta. )

" Are maa aap tension mt lo. " Aarav said, while coming from his room. ( Mom please don't take stress.)

" Haan aunty aapka bp high ho jayega. Please shaant ho jao. " Amira said while changing the flowers from the vase. ( Yes Aunty, your blood pressure will be high. Please calm down. )

" Kaise shaant ho jau main. Aaj ladke wale Avni ko dekhne aa rhe h aur y maharani neeche hi nhi aa rhi h." ( How can I be calm. Groom and his family is coming today but Avni is not coming downstairs. )

" Are devi tum shaant ho aur y lo pani piyo. " Rajesh said while passing the water to sunaina. (Oh devi please calm down and have some water. )

She drinks the water while Rajesh kissed her forehead. Sunaina hits his chest and said

" Aap bhi na, sb h yaha. " ( You, Everyone is here. )

" Humne kuch nhi dekha. " Amira said while turning. ( We didn't noticed anything. )

" Haan, Haan maine bhi kuch nhi dekha. " Aarav said while stifling his laugh.( Yes Yes, I didn't noticed anything too. )

Everyone chuckles. Before heading back to the work.

ON THE OTHER HAND

THE RATHORE MANSION ~

The mansion was a quite chaos. The maids, cooks, everyone was busy with some work. Some maids were packing gifts while some were keeping them into the car.

" Are sb ready h...? " Raj said while coming downstairs. ( Is everything ready...? )

" Haan, bs maa aur badi maa puja krle phir nikalte h. " Abhira said while coming from kitchen. ( Yes, Once maa and badi maa will done with puja, we will head out. )

Raj hummed and went to the temple but not before lovingly kissing abhira's forehead. She smiled and went to the temple.

Ruhanika and Aryan also came and joined them. Abhira asked through his eyes " wo...? " ( He...? ) But Aryan shook his head and focused on the puja.

After the puja, Simran gives everyone ladoo as a prashad.

(A/N - prashad ko english m pta nhi kya kehte h..hehe👉👈)

Everyone went outside of the mansion, where their cars were parked.

" Are aryan kaha h...? " Divya asked, noticing that Aryan wasn't present there. ( where is Aryan...? )

" Haan aur Agam bhi nhi h... " Akash said. ( Yes and Agam is also not present... )

" Wo aryan bhai agam bhai ko lene gye h. Aur unhe thoda kaam bhi tha. " Ruhi said.( Actually aryan bhai has went to take agam bhai, and also he have some work. )

Everyone mouthed an O and settle down in the car.

In the mansion --

Aryan went in Agam's room. Agam was speaking to someone on the phone.

" I want him in my dungeon till tonight. " He said gritting his teeth. Aryan came in his room and put his hand on his shoulder. Agam turned around and find him.

Agam hummed on the phone and hang the call.

" Kya hua...? " Aryan asked. ( What happened...? )

" Wo hi verma's, apni harkaton s baaz nhi aane wale. " ( You know verma's, they are not gonna change. )

" Kyu, kya hua...? " ( Why, what happened...? )

" Wo hi phirse humare kaam m tang adana. " ( Nothing. Just interfering in our work )

Aryan hummed in response.

" Chal abhi to chalte h. Late ho jayega warna. "( Ohky, let's go for now. Or else we will be late.)

Agam hummed and they both went out. They were walking out when suddenly aryan stopped near the temple. Agam asked him through his eyes " What happened...? "

Aryan shook his head and said

" Nothing much. Tu chal main aata hu. "

( You go, I'm coming. )

Agam hummed and went towards everyone.

" Bhagwan ji, aaj sb kuch thik s krwana aur hum pr apni kripa banaye rkhna. " Aryan said, joining his hands.

" Har Har mahadev...!! "

He rang the bell of the temple and went outside.

" kaha tha beta tu...? " Simran asked. ( where were you son...? )

" Kuch nhi bs phone aagya tha. " Aryan replied. ( Nothing just a phone call. )

Simran hummed and went to sit in the car. The car started and they went towards their destination.

( A/N - And now the real journey begins 😏 )

---------------------------------------

THE SHARMA MANSION ~

Everything was done. The chaos was now settled. The mansion was quite.

Suddenly a sharp voice broke the silence. The voice echoed in the whole mansion.

" Avni....!!! "

" Uth ja beta Jaldi...!! "( Wake up fast Beta...!! )

Diya and Aarav came out from their room.

" Kya hua Maa...? " Diya asked, adjusting her dupatta properly.

( A/N - Smjh jao wo thoda personal kaam kr rhe the 🌚😏)

" Beta diya dekho y ladkiyan uth hi nhi rhi. Ek to Ami bhi nhi h aur ladke wale aate hi honge. "( Diya look, they aren't waking up. Ami isn't here and the boy side is coming soon. )

Diya hummed, and again went upstairs.

" Main abhi utha kr aayi thi, lgta h sogyi phirse. " She mentally face palmed herself.

( I just came waking up them, I think they again drifted into sleep. )

She went towards Anisha's room. She opened the door and get shocked because....

Anisha was already awake and was getting ready.

She was a vision in white , her anarkali suit flowing around her with every graceful movement. The soft fabric, a delicate shade of white, was adorned with subtle gold embroidery that shimmered in the light.

Her makeup was light and fresh, a touch of blush highlighting her cheekbones and a soft gloss enhancing her lips. Her dark hair was neatly done, and she was wearing diamond earrings that sparkled brilliantly.

A matching diamond pendant hung delicately from her neck, catching the light and drawing attention to her elegant neckline.

She turned around after listening the sound of the door and smiled at diya.

Diya came towards her and kissed her forehead.

" Kitni sundar lg rhi h ishu. " She complimented. ( How beautiful you are looking ishu. )

Anisha broke into smile.

" Aur aap to humesha ki tarah cutie. " Isha complimented back. They both chuckles and went out. ( And as usual you are looking cutie. )

" Acha ab dulhan madam ji ko bhi uthana h. " Diya said. Ishu hummed and they both went to Avni's room.

They opened the door and there she was

Avni .

Beautifully getting ready.

The soft blush of the saree cascaded down her, a gentle waterfall of magenta that seemed to amplify the glow of her skin. The fabric, a delicate silk, moved with her as she adjusted the pallu , the subtle shimmer catching the light.

Her makeup was a whisper, a gentle enhancement of her natural beauty. A touch of blush highlighted her cheekbones, and her lips were painted a soft rose.

Completing the look was a set of exquisite jewelry: a delicate necklace that rested on her collarbone, matching earrings that sparkled with every movement, and a few bangles that chimed softly on her wrist.

Everything about her was a picture of understated elegance.

She turned around and find diya and ishu looking at her. Their mouth's swung open and eyes wide.

" Oh my goodness, I'm gonna faint here. " Ishu dramatically said, walking forward.

" I just witnessed a Beautiful and Hot Fairy in a saree. " Diya said. Avni blushed on compliments and turned around, facing the vanity.

" Bs bhi kro aap dono. " She said blushing. Ishu and diya chuckled.( Stop it you both. )

They three started talking about random stuffs when suddenly Aarav came from behind.

" Are neeche chalo ladke wale aagye. "( Come downstairs, they have arrived. )

They nodded and started going downstairs.

But Avni started feeling a little bit of nervous. Of course she will feel nervous after all He is coming to look her.

The only questions that were going on her mind were of - What if something wrong happened?, what if she couldn't make it up?.

" Are di chalo jaldi...!! " Ishu said coming into the room. But Avni didn't responded. Ishu shaked her, breaking the chain of thoughts, she was lost in. ( Di let's go quickly...!! )

" Kya hua Di...?" She asked.( What happened Di...? )

" Nervousness. '' She replied. Ishu came forward and kept her hand on her and squeeze them.

" Don't take stress di... Agar wo aapki kismat m hoyenge to sb thik jayega. " Ishu said.

( If he is written in your destiny, then everything will be fine. )

Avni hummed and ishu continue.

" Aur aap sb kuch Shiv ji pr chod do. " She said. Avni hummed again. ( Leave it on God. ) ( Shiv ji = Hindu God )

" Chalo ab chalo bhi. " She said, dragging her with herself.

They both went downstairs and saw that everyone was already arrived. They went to take their blessings.

ABHIR'S POV ~

We have reached our destination. The gate of the mansion opened and the car went in.

We opened the door of the car and started going towards the mansion.

Everyone welcomed us. A lady came forward, taking the thal most probably she is the mother of the girl.

She welcomed us and we entered.

We 4 bent and take blessings of elders.

" Jeete raho. " They said. Abhira and Ruhi were about to bend when they stopped them saying that ghar ki laxmi pair nhi chuti. ( Stay blessed. )

We all went into the living room. The elders started talking. The maid passed us the cup of tea.

I got an call. I put it on my ears and started talking.

I was talking when suddenly I hear the sound of bangles jiggling. I turned around and my heartbeat stopped.

In that instant, time stood still.

My heart skipped a beat, then another, before seeming to stop altogether. A wave of pure awe washed over me as I took in her beauty, the radiant smile, and the way the light caught in her eyes.

It was as if everything around me had ceased to exist, and there was only her. The air crackled with an unspoken connection, and for a fleeting moment, my entire universe revolved around her.

The saree flowed around her, a cascade of vibrant color that seemed to dance with her every move. The fabric, a luxurious silk, shimmered as it caught the light, the intricate embroidery catching the eye. She was a masterpiece of tradition and elegance.

She was absolutely breathtaking. Not much makeup. Just a touch of blush highlighted her cheekbones and a soft gloss enhancing her lips.

She was having some bangles on her wrist. She was an absolute fairy.

My thoughts were interrupted by the person on the call.

" Hello, Hello. Mr. Rathore. "

" I will call you later. " I said and hung up the call.

I again focused on her. She has already came downstairs and was taking the blessings of the elders.

Maa and badi maa took her into an motherly hug. Papa and Bade papa placed their hands on her head.

" Tum....!! " A sharp voice echoed in the whole mansion. We all turned to the source of sound and got shocked because....

Aryan was standing there and a girl was standing in front of him pointing her finger on his face.

--------------------------------------

ANISHA'S POV ~

I came downstairs with di. They have already arrived. I went towards them and wished them.

Suddenly, my focus drifted on the shadow behind the pillar. I went towards it and saw a man talking on the phone.

Maybe he heard me and turned around.

What the fuck is this. How this could be possible. How could he be here...?

He....

How...??

My world tilted. I didn't expected him to be here.

I rubbed my eyes. Maybe it is my imagination.

Maybe I...

Maybe I'm just imagining things.

I again looked forward, expecting that he has gone but....

He was still there.

I was about to touch him when he said.

" Matlab tumne mujhe stalk krna shuru kr diya. " ( Means you started stalking me. )

To be continued...
