AARADHNA POV

We had done a very great gossip and fighting session with eachother that we didn't realise that it was going to be 8:00 at the night. I had already got some many calls from home but i said that their is an emergency that's why I won't be able to join them, but now i really have to leave and till now the Rathore must also have been gone .

Like seriously from Rathore's, I only know and seen the faces of HARSHVARDHAN RATHORE , DEVANDER RATHORE and YASHVIR RATHORE not even their eldest son face I only know his name that's it. Back to the point.

"Guys let's go, it's already late and i don't want them to get more mad at me or else you will be seeing me on footpath next morning for sure " i said in playful manner but janvi said while looking at her phone

"Please wait for more 2 minutes please please " she said with her puppy eyes which we all ignore it royally and move towards the door of her cabin and ignoring her like she never existed she was following us and saying to wait for more 2 or 5 minutes.

As I opened the door i bumped into something really hard like a wall "ouch, janvi tere cabin ke baahar ye diwar kab se khadi ho gyi ?" i whinned while rubbing my head like a 5 year old child.

("Ouch, Janvi, since when has this wall been fixed outside your cabin?)

"Still the same as before just like a child" I heard a deep voice from my front but it sounds familiar so i opened my eyes.

My eyes where down due to sudden bump and i see first black shining shoes with black pants slowly moving my gaze upward and the face of the man to whom bumped into.

My eyes got widened seeing the person whom I bumped into or to say my another bestfriend ATHARVA BIRALA.

I can't handle my anger and i grab him by his throat and pinned him against the nearest wall. He was 6'3feet and today I was wearing heels that help me alot to pin him to the wall but still I have to tip-toe to match his height.

"Why did you come after leaving us like we never existed? " i asked him

ABHIMANYU POV

I was coming back from meeting and i swear to god those clients were such a headache to me and on top that Abhay has started to tease me about my marriage. If he was not my bestfriend i would he killed him by now.

We reached TRIVEDI MANSION at evening around 7:30pm and my family reached there by 7 o'clock. Their Mansion was big as mine back at Rajasthan . They have nice taste in selecting the furnitures. They have bright yet pastel colours which can make anyone clam. overall it was a nice house . And we entered the hall everyone from my family and Trivedi family where present in hall sitting on the sofa.

"Abhi you finally came , I was so worried" my mom asked me

"What takes you so long Abhi?" Again my mom back fire a question. "Abhi-" she was again about ask something but i said

"Maa, aap hume bolne ka mauka dengi" i said and she chulcked "Yes Yes say it " mom said with smile. She the ONLY one i love the most not because just she my Maa but because of her I am here she has seen the most loveable side of mine and the most vulnerable also, and i think no one can love me or i can them like i did to my Maa. Not for this this life for sure.

(Maa, will you give a chance to speak me)

"Actually the meeting with the clients took some more time due the some misunderstanding" i said to Maa.

"Not a big deal Abhimanyu, we can understand your situation as we are also businessmen" now this time said SHUBHAKARAN TRIVEDI the head of this house and I respect him alot cause he had built the Company with no family and financial support and now look at the company it comes in top 5 best companies in the world.

"Now, we all can have a and talk about their wedding" said Rajeshwar uncle. "Yeah we should" said my father with a smile from ear to ear on his faces. I swear, everyone is over excited and happy about my wedding but leaving me . I am not feeling any excitement or happiness related to this wedding.

But leaving this aside I want to talk to shreeta about the contract that I didn't tell her till now but before it's to late, I have to tell her. It's not like that I like her or love her which cannot happen in this life for sure, but I don't want it cause any issues in future and i know it is best for us to have a CONTRACT MARRIAGE and i don't want anyone from both of the family to know about the contract thing

I roamed my eyes around to find shreeta "Areee Bhai, aap kise dhoodre hai ?" Spoke Naman. I just glared at Naman.

(Aree Bhai, tu whom you're searching for)

"Aree, aur kisko dhoondhe ge .

Shreeta Bhabhi sa ko " Himanshu commented with a grin on his face. I know it's my marriage but Himanshu looks more excited and happy about my marriage.

("Aree, who else did he would search for?

To Shreeta Bhabhi Sa")

Shreeta just came down stairs after getting alot off teasing about marriage to which I don't gave a fuck to them and went with Shreeta to backyard to have a talk.

"I want to talk about something shreeta" I stated to her "me to " she said " you go first" i said

"Listen Abhimanyu, I am very independent and career oriented girl. Just incase in future if I have to choose between my career and family remember I will always choose my career first and then family I will not think twice before choosing my career first and please don't take my words in a wrong way I just want things to be clear between us before Marring each other." She said

"I don't have any problems with your career " i said.

"Now , I want say that our marriage will be a co-" I got cutoff by someone's for hall calling shreeta.

"Shreeta beta, can you please come to us for a while " said someone for hall . She looked at me more like asking permission to go and i simply just nodded and she left.

I was about to go but I got a call from clients and they were important so i turned my heels and pickup the call .

AARADHNA POV

We were driving back to my house in my car with Janvi, Abhimaan, vibha and Atharva yes he is with us the three of them has started to talk to him but the the fight that took place in janvi's office. I am not talking to him .

[ Atharva Birala (24yrs olds )

Aaradhna's bestfriend who left the country out of blue and didn't inform to his friends

He a business (that's it for now to this character but you will like him in future chapters) ]

Flashback at janvi's office:-

"Why did you come after leaving us like we never existed? " i asked him . He gulped and his eyes more widened as my grip around his throat got tighter.

"Say something!!" I screamed on his face and getting more angry.

"Aaradhna leave him he will die " said vibha " why! Did he think about us and our friendship before leaving without saying anything to us" i stated.

Abhimaan and janvi dragged my hand away from his throat. He took some deep and fast breath.

"Easy tigress easy " said Atharva while breathing heavily . I just gave him look 'do you have death wish '

"Okay sorry guys for leaving you out blue and i swear, I also don't wanted to leave this country but my parents company's at US got into some issue and we have to left to US immediately " said Atharva.

"What!! And you don't bothered us contact or say the reason behind the sudden move of yours huh" i said.

"No, two weeks ago I contacted janvi, Abhimaan and vibha about this thing but when I tried to contact you I was failing again and again " Atharva said . This made me shock and i turned towards three of them standing behind me .

I looked at them and they have widened their eyes. "You all knew about this and didn't bother to tell me?" i asked in raged voice.

Vibha open her mouth and said "It's not like that Aaru-" I cut her off in middle. "Just SHUT UP. everyone!" I said and turned my heels and started to leave without any further arguments.

"Aaradhna wait!" Atharva said while grabbing my wrist. "Is there any thing remaining to talk" i said in cold tone which I definitely not use on my loved ones but this action made me to do this .

"It was my plan to give you suprise to see your reaction and i told them to not to tell about anything about me to you" he said. I scanned his and others faces

"Ok" i said "we are sorry" said four of them to me with their puppy eyes

"Ok, I will forgive Abhimaan Janvi and vibha and Atharva you have earn your forgiveness" i said to them. "But why me not them? " Atharva asked me .

"You should ask to yourself and you will get your answer " i said

"Yeah , she is right Atharva " said Abhimaan from behind

"Not you bro " Atharva said in horror "

Back to present.

We reached my mansion by 8:30 as janvi's company is near my house so it didn't take much time to reach.

We all got out from the car "Aaradhna atleast talk to me i said I'm sorry" Atharva said again. I forgive him when I saw him but it's fun to tease him he gets teased easily.

"Not very soon Atharva " i said to Atharva.

I turned my heels and i bumped into something again which was really hard.

I swear to god if there was any accident day then for sure i would have get the gold medal.

I was about to fall but i never fell instead i feel one arm around my waist and one arm behind my back preventing me from falling on the ground. I open my eyes just to get more shock the person whom I had accident in more and i almost could die is now holding me like WTF! And I said

"What the heck are you doing here!"
