CHAPTER 1 : FORTUNATE CHANGES ...
don't connect prologue with the chapter ..that part will come as the story will unfold ...😛
[MEMEBERSONLY]
I stood up and glanced myself in the mirror . I wont lie , i was really looking beautiful in my peach coloured kurti which was perfectly done with golden zari work on it . Today it is really a very big and special day for me but still like always i chose myself to get ready simply without any clowning art done on my face . " wow ! this is going to be the first word he is going to utter after seeing you " Mukti exclaimed from behind standing on the door seeing me with her glittering eyes . i blushed a little at her complement but composing myself made a face to her and after passing her a look again got back and started placing the things on their right place . My always neat and tidy room was now looking no less then a fish market . My clothes were spread in every damn direction and probably there was no place left in my not so small room which was clean .
" O ! Miss Marathon just sit ok , i will do it later , those guys must be reaching here in a moment or more , i don't want to get scold by dad again " Mukti nagged from behind or i can say almost shouted on seeing me cleaning my room today that to after getting ready and even i agree that it was so stupid of me to think of cleaning after getting ready so beautifully but her words grabbed my attention, like seriously she was afraid to get scolded by dad rather then thinking about me . " My dear sister , you dont need to get worry of dad , he wont scold uh so let me do this because i know you are never going to make this proper " i mocked her and pointed towards the things which were spread in every possible direction and my room was looking as if some tsunami had came here , five minutes before.
Mukti flashed her teeths in front of me and walked up to me . she made me sit on the little corner of the bed which was empty by god's grace and gestured me to look at her with a proud smile playing on her lips . she hurriedly picked up my belongings and her jackets and placed them on their right places . She was literally running in the every corner of my room so speedily as if some ninga power had entered in her . i can't believe that my elder sister , Mukti Murthy was setting up my room ,who never even dreaded to place a single thing of her room on its place . Impressive ! But i know she loves me a lot . Mukti is my elder sister . she is not only the best sister but , a perfect friend ...a perfect person and a perfect mother too sometimes .
Mom passed away when we were young , Mukti and i don't have a very much age difference , she is just one and half year elder then me but gained maturity too soon . when dad used to went outside , she always use to take care of me like mom used to do . dad had always tried to manage everything in Mumbai itself and had always tried to neglect going abroad . But still , sometimes he had to leave us for his business deals . at that time , it was only mukti who used to be with me always and from my side too it was vice-versa !
"Nandini ! what i am thinking is , i mean ..you know , ok so let me get to the point , see i am saying that today you are going to take decision for your life , so there is no hurry just think about it and then decide this " Mukti told me sitting beside me on the bed . "you know when i first met Abhimanyu , it was similar like meeting any other boy but when we spent time with each other and as time passed , it was different for me " and she was in her elder sister mode .
"Mukti , chill don't worry , its not like this is going to be my final and yes if it is even then i am not going to marry him now , it will be at least after a month with yours and Abhimanyu .." i stated and she nodded and side-hugged me lightly . yes ! Mukti was fixed with Abhimanyu since last three years and even dad knew about it . Now Abhi is in California for his job but is coming back to India after this month and then dad is thinking to tie them up together but dad had a very weird wish too , not weird but different kind off , dad want me and mukti to marry on the same day so today Malhotra family is coming to see me . So indirectly i am going to have an arrange marriage probably with some Malhotra or someone else , which time is going to tell . "Mukti !" we heard Dad's shout from downstairs and i knew Malhotra's had arrived . Mukti smiled excitedly and instantly got up and kissed my cheek and after wishing me luck rushed downstairs .
I picked up my cell and glanced the time . I had texted Aryaman almost an hour before and still no reply from him . He is such a worst friend any one can have . No seriously, here i asked him to take leave from his bloody forensic job for today but he didn't and moreover he still hadn't reached here yet . Jerk ! instead of being with me he is in his forensic lab playing What you are gonna tell me today ? with dead bodies there . Dead Bodies are more important for him then his alive friend . i again tried to call him but his phone was switched off .
I cursed him uncountable times at threw my phone on the bed angrily . But the very next moment it vibrated . i picked it up furiously and saw his message saying Murthy ! Five minutes more . i will be there with your chocolates ;) <3 ! huh ! I sighed and the very next moment chuckled softly . This guy is unbelievable !! i placed my phone back on the bed and glanced myself in the mirror .
***
Malhotra's were welcomed whole - heartedly in Murthy villa by Murthy family. After a warm welcome they all adjusted themselves comfortably on the luxurious sofa's in the hall . Malhotra's glanced the whole mansion and Cabir spoke " Amazing interiors ! Mr. Murthy " . to which he smiled . The mansion was lavishly big and the interiors were designed especially by the Australian Designers . The whole mansion was decorated with the expensive show - pieces and authentic paintings . The textures of walls were done in royal historical designs by the architects from Dubai and in the old yet beautiful and classy Rajasthan Gherwi style giving the mansion a classic yet authentic look .
"she is my sister ...her husband and he is cabir my friend " manik introduced his part of family to dad and mukti and they all started talking with each other over different things.
*****
I was sitting on the edge of my bed lost deep in my thoughts , little nervous thinking that how our first meeting is going to be . It was a very strange and different feeling for me , Butterflies were literally doing saumersault in my little stomach . i have seen Manik's photo and indeed he is the most handsome hunk i have ever seen and probably will ever see . His features are very attractive and he has exactly the same physic which every girl dream for her guy . His brown orbs and cutter sharp jaw line are the most attractive essentials of him . My chain of thoughts were broken as my phone buzzed again and this time it was Mukti's message saying Come Downstairs Sweetie ! ;) all the best :* . i took my phone and stood up . i glanced myself for the last time in the mirror and again after adjusting my hairs lightly left downstairs after taking a deep breathe , My mantra to keep myself calm .
I went downstairs and noticed his gaze on me . His gaze was capable of sending shivers to me . As i took my slow steps ahead which was not tend to be that slow but his intense gaze was doing no justice to me . The speed by which i was walking , i can bet if an ant will be passing beside me , even she will reach to the sweets which are placed on the table more faster then me . Mukti got up and came to take me . "don't be nervous !" she whispered in my ears with a smile in a very slow voice only audible to me . i finally looked up confidently and a smile appeared on my lips on seeing Aryaman . so finally he is here ! i am gonna beat him all black and blue after this but the very next moment he turned his face and got busy with his phone .
This behaviour of him was pretty strange to me as this as not so him but the very next moment i felt someone holding my hand . i looked at the owner and my eyes widened as it was Manik . I shivered as if someone had given me an electric shock . he held my hand slowly and spoke looking directly into my eyes with a smile " come ". I looked at Dad and he nodded smilingly in assurance. We walked to the couch and a guy already sitting in the middle got up and sat beside Aryaman and i sat their with manik beside me .
There was an awkward silence in the atmosphere. "guys have something na " mukti broke the silence and passed mushroom cookies to manik . "sorry i am allergic to mushroom " manik gently told mukti and that was a news to me . The aura of his voice was definitely something. I mean i have never seen such gentle and civilized person . oh yes i am not saying civilized in terms of behaviour or actions but his voice . so calm , so gentle and so polite ! .
Dad asked manik about his business and family and everyone interacted with other pretty well . i was listening to everyone silently but was smiling at times . manik was continuously staling glances of me while i don't why my cheeks were turning red and my lips were automatically curling in a shy smile . on the same time he was answering all the questions of dad very politely . i found cabir very humourous as he was continuously cracking some jokes in between forcing us to laugh while alya was very sweet and was talking to mukti and dhruv was sitting silently yet smilingly.
*********
Manik and me was alone in my room as he wanted to talk to me alone and , i would not lie even i too wanted to talk to him . everyone was downstairs talking to each other and had sent manik along with me so that i can show him my room and we can talk to each other as well . "so you have completed your M.B.A recently .." manik initiated the conversation . "yes ..! " i answered him and was back to my silent zone . i know i was behaving little stupid and not at all like a 21st century girl . i mean atleast he will be expecting me too speak something else then yes or no ... but i was so adamant to be in my silent zone .
it was not like i was feeling shy or something like that but i just don't know what to ask . "nandini see, stop getting nervous you can talk to me normally , i wont eat you up .." his words startled me yet i wasn't shocked completely . "umm .. i dont know what to say !" i confessed honestly and he let out a soft chuckle .
then we talked over our professional fields . i told him that i wont be liking the fact to sit hime after marriage and even appreciated that . i showed him my child hood pictures and he showed me his pictures in his mobile when he was awarded as Asia's most successful young businessman . he further showed me alya and dhruv's marriage pictures. He was scrolling the pictures in his phone when suddenly a picture came in which he was dressed like an army man but he instantly turned it and thought that i didn't noticed it but i did . "what was that picture ..??" i asked him curiously . "ahh ...nothing !!" he was fumbling with the words. Was he hiding something from me ? he then instantly changed the topic and started talking over different things but i was still sticked on that picture .
"Am I Missing Something about you ??" i asked him all of a sudden and he looked at me intently and then answered "you are missing all of me " and then keenly glancing my expressions started laughing . i looked at him confused and he continued .. " of course you will miss all of me , if you will not focus on what i was telling you .." .
I managed to pass him a smile and we again started talking . he told me about his achievements and i too told him i had done my internship from college . our conversation went pretty good and i was able to come to a conclusion of agreeing for this relation .
***************
"dad what do you think about manik ??" mukti asked dad as they went to dad's room while alya , cabir and dhruv was sitting in the hall. "he is perfect for nandini beta .. but you are sure na that you have checked his family background and everything .." of course dad was concerned for me .. "yes papa .. i had checked everything ..he is indeed a successful creature and his family is very reputated in Belgium and i think nandini also liked him .. " mukti said with a smile and dad too nodded and they went outside.
I and manik came downstairs and everyone looked at us . dad asked me with his eyes that whats my decision and i nodded in agreement and he knew i liked manik . dad then went to manik and asked him and he too agreed for the marriage . everyone chatted for a little long and finally manik and his family cum friends got up to leave .
Everyone went out and now only i and manik was left in the hall . "bye !!" he said slowly forwarded his hand for a formal yet informal handshake . "bye !" i answered him with a smile and shook hand with him . i don't know why touching him was a very strange feeling for me. His touch was always capable to sent jitters to me and we too made our way out where everyone was waiting for us .
