ARJUN's POV :

As my gaze stopped on the person, that I am crazy for , I felt like time has stopped. Everything around me seems to be in slow-motion .

Performance ended and I rushed down stage. Ran towards my jaan. But I stopped 10 steps to her because she don't even know who I am.She don't even know my existence but here I am paagal for her. I am just staring at her and trying to believe that it is not actually a dream.

Suddenly she looked at me, my heart skipped multiple beats, my breath hitched at meeting of our eyes. But our magic moment was disturbed by someone.

Right now if I want to murder someone then definitely it would be Karan. This duffer disturbed my moment."hey Sangeet is completed, come we will go", Karan shouted. I never in my life felt Karan would be this annoying.

As I turned towards her table where she is sitting, that disappointed me because she left from there. With cursing Karan in my mind I left from there.

Night went on with me remembering the moment I saw her. She just appeared like a fairy. Sleep is no where. It's been 5 years since I have seen her. But her face is same as when I saw her , with slight changes. Same innocent eyes and serene face.

It's morning and I got ready for the day." Kya chal Raha hai subha subha...?" Sudden voice popped from my behind. It's Gaurav with his sleepy face." Kuch nahi, lekin tumhe dekh kar Mera din Karab hogaya......"

"Shukar kar Mera jaisa mahaan insaan ka muh dek liya", Gaurav went on with his drama.

" Gaurav leave it....I have something to share with you",I said with curiosity.

"Mmm you are calling me with my name then it should be something serious. Go on...."

"I have seen her",I said with excitement.

"who...?that puppy girl....",he guessed looking at my excitement.

"Firstly she is not puppy girl. Yeah, last night in Sangeet I have seen her. I was about talk with her but that duffer Karan spoiled it",I blurted out everything.

"At least this wedding is of some use to you, you found your dream girl ", Gaurav said with hope.

"Yeah, I think even she came to wedding. I have to search her."

" Ha yaar tumhara intezar ka pal tho milega tumhe."

With that I have shared to Gaurav. After that we are done with breakfast. Everyone around me enjoying wedding. But my eyes are just looking for those black orbs.

It's chaos all in the wedding hall. As Virat and Pallavi are sitting on stage and following pandit Ji's gestures. I am all disappointed because I am not able to spot my girl.

But to my luck she entered with kalash in her hands and handed it over to pandit ji. Stood beside Tara.

She is so beautiful that even moon is not enough to compare. Everything she is wearing, from lehenga to jewellery as they are just made for her. Damm her smile gave mini heart attack to me. Here I am sitting and looking at her like a creep.

Suddenly I felt someone's hand on my shoulder. It is Farhan." Kis ko dek rahe ho?", Farhan shot a question.

" Tere hone wali bhabhi ko dek Rahi hi hu..."

"Arjun tu cheat kar Rahi ho...Aisi kisi ko kaise dek sakte ho....woh puppy girl se loyal hona chaiye....", Farhan scolded. Hay how good my friends are...

"Usiko dek Raha hu"

"Kya...!woh kaise yaha hai...?"

"Tara ke bagal mein kade hai na wohi tumhari bhabhi....", I showed him towards my jaan.

" Yaar tu kitna lucky hai, bas uski chahre deke hi pleasant feel aa Raha hai",Farhan spoke but I felt like punching Farhan but it's ok they don't bad have any intentions.

All the time I am imagining ourselves in the place of Virat and pallavi. I badly want to be beside her.

Definitely I'll make her mine. She has to be mine , cannot escape.

All rituals are completed and now Pallavi is talk with her friends, even my girl is there. I am liking it just by imagining her as my girl.

I straight went to Virat who is talking with someone. With my presence he gave me attention and I congratulated him. But all I want is to know about my girl.

"Acha Virat woh ladki kaun hai pallavi ke saath kadi hai...?"

"Woh pallavi ki cousin Manvika ", Virat said.

"Kya karti hai woh",I asked in return.

"Why are you asking about her all of sudden? I doubt you that you like her...."

"Sirf like nahi, payar karta hu",I just confirmed. Virat's mouth was hung open with shock but he retrieved.

" Oh the most eligible bachelor has fallen in love", Virat teased.

"Pehle batao na..."

"She is doing bachelor's and don't you think she is too young? She is just 20", Virat said doubt.

"I have seen her 5 years back itself but to my bad I have missed her."

"It means she knows you?"

"No ",I said.

By talking to Virat I came to know that she lives in Mumbai itself. All the things which Virat told me I printed them in my mind as it is about my girl.

Manvika name itself gave butterflies to me. Then how it would feel if she become MANVIKA ARJUN AHUJA.

Come on Arjun until you don't know her you were struggling, now Start your work to make her yours I mentally spoke to myself.

Wedding was completed. Now I am feeling why this wedding didn't last long. All the time I just looked at my girl

By looking her I can say she don't like people around her. Maximum time I have seen her far from people. I mentally noted it.

The urge to talk with her is increasing but I have to control because she don't know me.

But I am enjoying from far itself.

Now it's time to go back, I just looked at my girl who is holding a man's hand who is in his fifties, I think so may be he is her father or soon to be father in law to me.

Now Karan , Gaurav, Farhan know about her and all the while they're teasing me.

I dropped them and made my way to home with the thoughts of my love.

MANVIKA'S POV :

Sangeet went well. It is finally wedding day. I wore the lehenga which maa gave me. Since we came here I got indulged with Ruhi ,Aliana and Tara. I spoke least with maa. Papa just met now.

To my annoyance the aunties who were gossiping turned their attention towards me who is into phone with their weird questions. " What are you studying?, are you dating someone?,where you bought this jewellery? Actually my son is good match to you....." All the bullshits.

But thank god badi maa asked me to get kalash from room. As the opportunity, I escaped from there. I gave the kalash to pandit ji and stood with Tara.

Tara has became good friend even we exchanged our numbers. Wedding has completed. We all had lunch together.

Now it's time for vidai. The part I hate in wedding. A girl should leave everything behind and hardest part is she has to embrace a new family and new changes without complaining. As pallavi di is hugging badi papa and badi maa crying like no tomorrow.

But Virat jiju handled her. They went off in their car. Maa, papa consoled badi papa and maa.

Don't know why I imagined myself and I looked at papa.

I immediately went to papa and hugged him. He circled his arms around me. After few moments I came out from hug and looked at papa, his eyes softened and understood what is running in my brain.

Tears flowing and I whispered " I don't want to leave you papa."

"Meri pari ko koi mujhse dur nahi kar sakta hai...", papa assured.

I don't know why all these emotions are flowing now. It's not like I am going to marry in a week and leave everything behind.

With that we started to our home. I clutched Papa's hand in a tight grip due to previous moments.

Papa assured me. We returned to home.
