Chapter 9: Chapter 9
I wake up as I start to feel like I was going to fall. I wake up with a jerk and open my eyes and look around. I was lying on the sofa with a cushion under my head and a duvet on top of me. Which of any I don't remember at all? I don't remember lying down or pulling a cushion under my head or the duvet?
I look around and see Arjun sitting near my head on the sofa. He was sleeping sitting on the sofa with his legs dangling of the sofa and his head in air. I look at him with a sad expression and get up. He must have made me lie down properly and didn't lie down properly himself.
I sit down and walk towards him after getting up. I reach his legs and try tp put the up on the bed. I finally succeed to pull his legs up after almost seven times. I take a deep breath and move to move his head. I hold his face gently in my palm and lie it down on the sofa properly. I look for a pillow afterwards and pull it down his head.
I smile as I cover him with the duvet and see him sleeping peacefully. He looks so cute sleeping with his mouth slightly ajar. I smile and head towards the guestroom bathroom. I come out after doing my business and check my phone. I scream as soon as I see the time.
"Arjunnn" I shout moving out of the guestroom and heading to the living room. I see a very sleepy Arjun sitting on the sofa trying to understand the environment.
"I am going to be late for the airport" I said reaching him showing him time in my phone. His eyes suddenly opened properly. He opened his mouth when he saw me hyperventilating and on the verge of a breakout.
"Okay, you just go and get ready and I will manage everything else" he said holding my shoulders and we both moved towards the rooms with him holding still holding my shoulders
"We will not miss your flight. Just go and get ready. Okay?" he said softly to me and I moved to the guestroom and got ready. We reached the airport just in time for boarding and I thanked Arjun before going inside.
........................
Its been a week since I returned back from Bangalore and I realized it was a nice idea to visit him as it had made me lot closer and comfortable around Arjun. My relatives have been arriving from the last three days. And in three days I am going to be married. Oh god this is all getting so scary. How am I going to do all this? I can't even remember my dance steps how can I be a good wife?
I am laying in my bed having a breakdown. Tomorrow is my mehndi and Sangeet and I am not able to remember the steps properly. I am dancing on too many songs. I am dancing alone, I am with my parents, I am dancing with my cousins, I am dancing with my friends and the one person I really wanted to dance with, I am not dancing with him. I keep on confusing the steps again and again
"Navi" Priyanka called from downstairs and I fake cried a little. She has turned into a dance monster and she keeps on irritating me
"Yes" I shouted laying on the bed in an very irritated voice
"Come down now. We have to practice" she shouted and I shook my head. I don't want to dance anymore. I just want to sleep and I am very tired
"Navi" Priyanka shouted louder this time and I got up with an annoyed face
"I am coming" I shouted moving towards the gate. They will just not leave me alone. I reached downstairs and immediately felt like going back to my room.
"Come" Priyanka said and dragged me in the middle and we all started dancing.
"How many songs did you all want me to dance on in such a heavy lehenga" I said as they all still wanted to participate even after midnight
"Let her sleep now it's almost midnight. She will get dark circles" Mummy said coming in the hall and I took a breath of relief. My knight in the shinning armor. I thought looking at my mother.
"Yes, I have to look flawless. I can't have dark circles. Let me go now" I said in one go and looking at Priyanka with puppy eyes.
"Fine. Go and sleep" Priyanka said. I hugged mummy and muttered a thank-you before rushing to my room. I lay on the bed and cover myself with the blanket. Sleep engulfed me in seconds.
..........................
The mehndi artists have arrived right at the time. It is 10 in the morning in December and I am only sitting in an a sleeveless top and shorts. I am going to freeze to death due to a mehndi function. There are two artists for me only and five other artists for everyone else.
"What kind of a design do you have in mind" mehndi artist asked me and I shook my head
"Ask her" I said pointing towards mummy. She has been going on about a design she saw on Facebook. The artist asked mummy about the design and mummy showed her a picture. She got back and started with my right hand. The other one has already started a design on my legs.
"Play some music" Priyanka said looking at me
"You want me to play music?" I asked showing her my feet which were covered in henna.
"Yeah, sorry" she said and called Abhinav on his phone
"Yes" Abhinav said coming in after a minute
"Play some music" she said pointing him towards the speaker
"You could have done it yourself" he said moving towards the speaker. She just showed him her left hand in which mehndi was being applied.
"Your right hand is clean" I said in a duh tone
"Abhinav doesn't have a problem in doing stuff for me" she said giving Abhinav a sweet smile
"I do. Don't call me again" he said leaving the room and I laughed.
"Only my husband loves me" she said trying to wipe away the fake tears
"You sure about that?" I ask and she throws a cushion above my head and I laughed as she missed it
"Stupid mehndi. I can't even hit you in the face" she said and I laughed harder. The mehndi was finally completed after an hour and I can't even wear more clothes now because it is still drying.
"Put the blanket on me" I said to Priyanka getting on the bed. She just showed me her mehndi clad hands.
"Abhinavvv" I shouted after thinking for a second
"What" he said entering the room.
"Put that blanket on me please. And also can you feed both of us" I said in the sweetest voice
"She has a husband, he will feed her" He said pointing at Priyanka "and you I will feed you" he said putting the blanket on me and I gave him a smile
"What did I ever do to you" Priyanka asks Abhinav who just shrugged and left the room. He came back after some minutes with two plates and fed the both of us. Rithik, Priyanka's husband also came in my room and ate with us.
