🖤Bhabhi🖤

But my laugh vanished as he took the flower bouquet from me and tossed that onto the couch beside him.

I looked at him in shock and confusion maybe.

His expression was now charged with a darker one.

I couldn't get enough time to even realize what happened to him.

All of a sudden he took two long steps eating up the distance between us.

I blinked nervously as my legs moved backward in instinct, my back hit the bed and I fell on the bed.

I yelped in surprise but my breath nearly stopped when he hovered me.

His face was so close to mine that I could see the faded scar on his cheek under his eye.

His lips were pink...no don't think like a rat.

That's how a rat thinks?

Ugh shut up!

I could feel his hot breath on my lips.

His eyes were locked into mine.

I don't know why but I felt extreme heat around me.

My breath hitched and I felt something poking my side waist.

My breath heavend as it slid upwards slowly.

I saw his arm moving along as if he was holding something and sliding upwards.

Shivers were running down my body as I felt the tingling across my skin. I let out a shaky breath as the thing reached the side of my breast.

His gaze diverted to my parted lips, he didn't look back into my eyes. My stomach flipped.

I swallowed hard as the thing reached my neck and tilted my face slightly upwards.

He finally looked in my eyes back.

"Kuch jyada hsi nhi arhi aapko, nhi?" He whispered just above my lips.

I clutched the bedsheet under my hand as I let out a deep breath I didn't know for how long I was holding.

He looked at my lips, then in my eyes again.

"Kya hua,.. Jaan?"

He whispered dangerously. His lips barely brushed against my lips, but that sent an electric shock in my body.

He pressed the thing on my neck again making me tilt my face more up. He traced that thing on my bottom lip.

My eyes widen in shock.

A gun.

I gasped sharply.

I heard him chuckling lightly before stroking my jaws with the gun

"Aapko dekh ke lgta nhi aap naraz h mujhse."

I shaked my head hesitantly, careful not to touch his lips with mine.

"I am not." I whispered nervously.

What's the point of pointing a gun on me if I am mad? Kya hogya h inhe? Does he hit his head on something?

"Aisa kon krta h?" I asked as he straightened to sit beside me.

"Kaisa?" His eyes furrowed. A playful smile was placed on his lips.

I straightened up, maintaining distance between us again.

"Aise kon apni hone wali biwi ko darata h?" I walked towards the door and locked it before looking back at him.

"Aap dar gyi?" He laid on the bed putting his arms under his head.

I stood there looking at him not knowing what to say.

I was afraid but somehow... not afraid.

Afraid of what?

Him killing me? No way. He won't do that.

' No No Don't trust him this much Devi! '

' But why not? He is my hope in this dark world? '

' Hope? What hope Devi? Hopes gets shattered easily. Didn't you see how, he will kill you if you will make him angry."

I looked at him, staring at me intently.

' No, He loves me.'

' Love, what love? Ek baar dekhne se pyaar ni hota, aur tu to khud first sight love me believe nhi krti na, to ab kya hua?'

"Kaha kho gyi aap gulabo?" He called out softly and I broke into reality again.

I saw him, sitting up while his eyebrows

narrowed questioning me what happened?

I shaked my head as no.

"Khi nahi" I replied softly. He patted the bed aside him signalling me to come there.

I remained frozen at my place as my attention diverted on the gun that was on the bed carelessly thrown by him.

"He can kill me if I will do anything he don't like" I gulped as my mind repeated the sentence.

"Gulabo?" He called out again, this time a bit louder than before. He took the gun in his hand.

I literally jumped at my place in fear and took steps towards him. He smiled softly while tugging the gun behind his back. He stood up and took the bouquet in his hands that was thrown by him previously on the couch. He again gave it to me and tugged my hair strands behind my ear... gently.

Shiv's Pov.

I sat on the bed asking her, "where is she lost?" as she was staring at me without saying anything.

She gently shook her head as no which made me smile. I patted the bed and I saw my gun thrown there.

I picked it up leaving the space for her to sit. I looked at her again as she came towards me. I stood up as she came closer. I gave her the bouquet again.

I tucked her hair strands behind her ear as she took the bouquet from me. Moonlight enhances her beauty even more.

Her dark eyelashes were downcast as she was looking at the bouquet. My hand remained frozen near her ear.

"You like it?" I brushed her cheek with my thumb.

She nodded before looking at me. I smiled when she looked back at the bouquet.

"ab aap jaiye na" Her voice was nervous.

I knew she was afraid of someone catching me here with her, at midnight.

"Kyu?" I decided to tease her more, why? because I loved it.

She looked at me with shock evident in her eyes.

"K-Kyu, Kyu nhi?" She furrowed her eyebrows cutely.

"Aapko jana to pdega na. Dekhiye vaise bhi itni raat ko aaye aap aur vo bhi chori chhipe. tsk tsk chaliye jaiye bhi ab" She pushed me softly to the balcony.

I giggled at her cuteness. I loved how she is becoming more comfortable with me now.

"Rukiye bhi thodi der aapss baate to kr lu aapse biwi Sahiba" I held her arm gently dragging her back to the bed.

"Huh? nhi bate krne ka time nhi h"

"Kyun train chhut jayegi meri?" I said while leaning on the headboard.

She clicked her tongue in frustration. 

Aww her little pout. 

"Khana khaya aapne?" I asked casually to start the conversation again. She nodded without looking at me.

"Baat smjhiye na please. Bohat time ho gya h. KI engagement bhi to h aap jldi kaise uthenge?" She mumbled, looking at me with those puppy eyes.

I sighed before standing up.

"Ok ok baby!" She stood along with me.

I cupped her face and kissed her forehead.

"Sleep well, Gulabo" Her lips twitched but she didn't say anything.

I walked to the balcony and waved my hand one last time she slowly waved back.

DEVI'S POV

I looked at him until he disappeared  behind the curtains and exhaled a deep breath.

I closed my eyes to relieve the tension that was still hanging in the room.

I could still feel his rich leathery smell around me. I opened my eyes as I heard the sound of car engine which slowly faded away.

He is gone.

In the morning

I woke up with loud knocks on my door. I could hear the mumbled screams of someone along with bangings on the door.

I rubbed my eyes, my mind was still heavy due to sleepiness.

I stretched onto the bed and sat lazily. My eyes were still closed.

"DEVI!"

I heard Maya's voice outside the door, she banged on the door.

It was clear that she was furious.

My eyes snapped open as I regained my composure. I quickly stepped down the bed, and walked towards the door.

She was constantly banging loudly until I opened the door. She rushed in. Her eyes were narrowed in anger. She held my arm tightly.

"What were you doing for so long!? I have been screaming for goddamn Hours!"

"I am sorry,"she jerked my arm.

"Whatever! Just get ready for your so called 'engagement' on else I will call mumma. Smjhi?"

I nodded.

She left the room while cursing me.

I rubbed my eyes again

Oh God! How can I be so careless? Aaj meri engagement hai and main ghode bech m so rhi thi abhi tk.

I took out  the dress from the cupboard which Maa bought me yesterday.

As she told me to wear it until we reach the venue.

Aanya told me that my things will be there and they will get me ready by themselves.

By them I mean Aanya, Shruti, Shiv's bua's daughter and Mihira (Noor's friend).

I quickly headed towards the bathroom to take a bath.

My phone ringed as I was bathing. I clicked my tongue in frustration and continued in bath in hurry.

As I finished bathing and changing. I picked up my phone in my hands.

"Maa ka call? Oh God ab kya bolungi unhe, Kyu late hui?"

  Should I call? Maybe... or maybe no.

She must be busy. Afterall its her son's engagement today.

"Pr dulhan to main hi hu"

As I was arguing to myself the phone buzzed. I was remembering her and see she called.

Bdi lambi umar hai Maa ki. I smiled before answering the call.

" Beta kya hogya tha? Tumne phone kyu nhi uthaya?" Her voice laced with concern.

"Kuchh nhi Maa, vo ghar nha nhi thi. Sorry aapka phone nhi utha payi- " Before I could explain more she chuckled.

"ok beta, jaldi se venue pohoch jana sab ok?"

I nodded. ' She can't see you stupid ! ' 

I slapped my head lightly.

"Ji Maa" A wide smile formed on my lips.

Maya came to call me. They all were ready and in hurry to leave.

Bua was correcting Maya's Lehnga while Maya was mumbling something furiously, throwing her hands in air.

Fufaji took the keys and was screaming that it's late.

But among all this mess my gaze was focussed on main door while standing far from them.

I stared at the door hopefully.

Where is Noor? My hand reached my mouth nervously as I bit my nails.

What if vo time pe nhi aayi?

How will I say to Bua to wait for her?

Noor! Please aajana yaar.

I jumped at my place, hearing a familiar shout.

I looked in its direction in instinct while putting my hand down again.

"Chalegi bhi Maharani! ya aeroplane mangau tere liye?"

I shaked my head while lowering my gaze, not wanting to meet her angry eyes.

"Ab khadi khadi grdn kya hila rahi ho

CHAL!" She barked while stepping forward towards me. I stepped back a little in fear.

"Maaa...."  Maya whined from the back.

Bua stopped in her steps and turned towards her.

"Leave her na, aap dekho na ye dupatta set hi ni ho rha."

I exhaled in relief.

But Noor?

Where are you?

After a few minutes, Fufaji ordered,

"We are leaving NOW. All of you get in the car."

Bua and Maya started walking out, Maya struggling with her lehnga.

I slowly took steps outside. Please God! Somehow make the time stop.

Noor ko bhej dijiye na please.

Bua turned to glare at me.

I fastened  my steps but time was flying faster than usual or I was the only one feeling it.

Everyone sat in the car and so did I.

The car engine started and so did the storm of sadness inside.

As the car was moving forward, my tears were starting to fall down.

But does anyone care?

No.

And the one who did.

Vo aayi hi nhi.

"Look I told you na teri zindgi me khushiyan? kabhi nhi."

The voice inside me laughed cruelly.

The same voice that always said

"There is no one to love you."

"She promised me," I closed my eyes tightly, tears flowed down.

"Promise? What promise? Promises are meant to be broken."

The voice of Maya and Fufaji was sounding more like mumbling now.

I clutched on my lap.

Tight. Tighter as much as I could.

' No. She is not like the rest of the world.'

' She is! '

' No! 'My voice desperate.

' She is, just like everyone using you for herself.'

' Noooo! ' I screamed mentally.

' Scream as much you can BUT YOU CAN NEVER BE HAPPY! ' She replied, slicing my chest.

"SHUT UP!" I screamed my lungs out,

putting my hands on my ears, tears rolling down my eyes.

My head hitted the front seat as the car squealed to stop. I opened my eyes to find Maya who was sitting beside me, Bua and Fufaji looking back, staring at me with shocked faces.

"Pagal ho gyi h kya ye ldki" Maya slapped my arm.

"Are janvro ki trah cheekh kyu rhi h!" Bua snapped at me.

"I am..sorr- " before I could say

Fufaji. started the car again.

I stopped in between my words.

" Pta nhi is mentally unstable ldki se shaadi kr kyu rhe h Shiv Singh Rathore,"  Maya looked at me with disgust, before saying

"Mrs. Rathore bnne k layak to m hu!"

She flicked her hair back while looking at herself in mirror.

I wiped my tears while focusing out of the window.

Time flew away just as fast as wind blows.

We reached a grand venue which I- expected.

I know he is rich and who wants their wedding to be normal, especially when they do have this much money?

"And who wants to marry a normal slave looking girl like your Devi!"

I closed my eyes and shaked my head to brush her words off my mind.

I saw a group of youngsters rushing towards me, each one screaming with excitement

"Bhabhiii !"

Shruti 's outfit

                        Aanya's outfit

Aarav's outfit

Before I could even close the door,

Aanya scooped me into the most tight hug I have ever received.

"Bhabhii !" She squealed and kissed my cheek while cupping my face.

My arms wrapped around her in their own and I smiled back.

I yelped in surprise as Shruti pushed her away and hugged me instead.

She imitated her kiss, cupping my face, but on other cheek.

She backed off and brushed my other cheek, the one kissed by Aanya like she is rubbing the kiss away. She made a face like she will gag.

Aanya whined in anger dramatically.

A chuckle escaped through me as Aanya pulled Shruti away from me.

" Dekh Shruti, tujhe pta bhi kitna bada crime h ye!" Aanya pointed her finger at Shruti, making serious face.

Shruti put her hands on her waist.

"Achha ji, kitna bada?" She asked pinching Aanya's finger.

Aanya gasped. "Haww ek aur crime. pta bhi h sja bdi jaalim ho skti h iski."

I bit my lip to control my laugh while Aarav and an unfamiliar guy beside him bursted into laughter.

Aanya pushed Shruti back with her finger, poking on Shruti's shoulder.

"Iski sja h do thapad, ek mukka aur aadhi laat."

Shruti furrowed her eyebrows

"Aadhi Laat?"

Aanya lifted her lehnga a little,

"Maar k dikhau?"

Shruti backed off while giggling

"Are nhi nhi."

I giggled along with Shruti, while Aanya flexed her invisible bicep

" underworld m jikra chle yaara ke naam ka.

"

All of us burst into laughter.

Aanya held my hand, walking inside while still laughing.

Aarav, that guy, Shruti and Maya followed us.
