MANYA'S POV
Hooting and whistles that was the sound we were hearing after to be groom's dashing entry on bullet with his boy gang firing in background. Veedisha's eyes widen, smiling, surprised or maybe shocked. She was mesmerised by the view , she never expected that bhai can ever do this.
His leaders style entry definitely impressed his father in law , his in laws were his fans from that moment. Mamma , papa were shocked , they never ever thought in their entire life that their son can do something like that, even no one can imagine this from gentle man, calm composed and sincere boy , doctor were supposed to sensible. But I loved his entry , it was the most memorable day.
The priest started the ritual , guest get busy in their own talks and some admiring the beautiful venue and venue was indeed beautiful , fairytale vibes as Veedu was her father's princess , the hall was decorated with lilies , white and pink theme suits Veedu's soft personality. The pooja (worship) ended, it was time to apply tilak on the couple's forehead , mamma made her wear traditional dupatta (scarf) sealing the relationship. This ceremony was held to state that the couple can't look for other options now they have to stop as the name suggest roka. It was time for relatives to bless the couple , they visit one by one to bless them. The party was in full swing and I remember very clearly how tense was the atmosphere before bhai's entry.
Flashback
"Hello , is it Manu",the person spoke but I didn't recognise the voice and the shocking thing was that the call was from bhai's number ."Who is it, where is bhai?",I asked in panic."Please come to this place I am sending you location , he is injured",he ends the call with these words. I grab the car keys and next second I was behind the wheel. I drove as fast as possible, I didn't count the number of signal I broke tears streaming through my eyes. Only single thing I was chanting please keep my bhai save god. As I reached the location , I saw a farmhouse and now I doubt if I am being played. Next second my phone ranged , I picked the call from an unknown number " Where are you , don't you want to save him?", he snapped at me."Why did you send me the address of farm house? Where's my bhai? Who are you?, I asked him all annoyed , I must have informed some one at home but I forgot in the rush."Listen you girl I am a doctor this is my place ,I have given him first aid now its your responsibility to take him anywhere you want, you dumbass come soon I have thing to manage", he shouted and end the call.
I entered the farm house there was no one , I heard the sound of laughing, my heart starting throbbing in my ribcage , new sweat beats formed on my fore head , my hands shaking. I was in dilemma whether to run or to look for bhai , I didn't it was bhai or me who was in danger but with all the courage I had , I move towards the room from where the sounds were coming.
As I opened the door my heart stopped beating for a moment I wanted kill my very own lovely brother with my own bare hands because that jerk was sitting all relaxed with his silly school friends. They all were laughing and I was standing like a statue coping with situation that just happened. " What was that, are you crazy?", I shouted with all the power my lungs had still crying. "Surprise , you missed me right", said Tushar , bhai's crazy best friend who loved to irritate me."When did you came back from Australia ?",I asked him. "Doesn't matter , I am here now to make his wedding memorable", he said grinning like idiots that means he was planing something."Relax Manu , we call you here because we need your help", bhai spoke calmly as nothing ever happened. "Help, this is how people ask for help , I might have died of heart ache", I replid. " It was Tushar's plan to play a prank on you but girl you took it so seriously that you covered hour long distance in just precise forty five minutes",this time Ritvik spoke bhai's another friend. "Are you guys crazy , mamma was alredy worried about him , he wasn't even picking up the calls and then you informed me this ..'' "I want to kill you all",I snapped at them.
"Enough , now tell us Bullet or Apache which bike is best for entry",said another wise friend. I gave them quizzical look and they explain that they want bhai's entry to be memorable and majestic. They explain me that I had to tell everyone that bhai was stuck in an operation to create a panic environment , Tushar bhayia wanted to trouble Veedu also and what could be expected from a prankster , I wonder sometimes if he play pranks on his patients also. I helped the boys to get ready , I was their personal stylist , whenever they had to go on a date they need my help. It was hard to handle their tantrums , they all behave mature and treat me like kid but when they had to get ready they all were choosy.
According to plan I came back home informed my parents that bahi was stuck in an operation , they were super angry and it was difficult to hid papa's phone and stop him to make call in the hospital but I did it.
Mumma was anxious and Veedisha decided to not to talk with him but both the ladies were desperate to had a look of him. M.L.A shab was also annoyed because bhai was late and he was strict about timing . I was thinking to make a call to ask why they were late but to my relief they came on right time.
My chain of thoughts got broken when I saw Abhiman my boss. What the hell he was doing here?, I thought just then he approached me , he was too fast to cover the distance between us."Hello Manya",he said smiling as we were age old friends meeting after ages."Hello sir" "Don't call me sir , I told you this before ", he said , why should I call him by his name. "Look Advik she still didn't remember me", he said looking at bhai who was standing beside him with bhabhi, when did he came here and what he meant by remember. "Remember what?", I raised my brows. "Manu do you remember Abhi whose photo is kept on your night stand , your fifth birthday picture in which he was applying cake on your face", bhai said."Very efficiently bhai , how can I forgot my best friend but I think he didn't even know that I exist"I huffed. "Abhi", he said. "What Abhi , leave him and tell me how do you know my boss?",I asked. "He is Abhi", he said looking at him. I checked him from head to toe. "How's that possible he was chubby and cute, not possible" , I said. "I am your friend Abhi , Abhiman , silly girl ", this time the person spoke the one we were discussing. I glared at him and again he said " yes Man, it's true."Such a nice day , my boss was my childhood. Malhotra's were our neighbour and papa's best friend but they left for Canada when I was six and Abhi was ten. Papa was in contact with them but I was not but I do remember him because of our countless photos and stories of our blunder that we both do when together.
He turned out to be my boss, mamma told me I even threaten him when they were leaving to not to have another girl best friend only I'll be his first and last friend who is girl and now I am feeling ashamed for my words which I barely even remember. I relaxed myself thinking that he must had not remembered such stupid warnings. Much to my dismay he said " I didn't made any girl friend putting pressure on girl. "I asked you not to had a girl friend not
